    Abstract:
    Pretreatment with 10(-8) M retinoic acid for 4 days caused changes in three distinct components of the parathyroid hormone (PTH)-stimulated cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate response in a clonal rat osteogenic sarcoma cell line, UMR 106-06: the amplitude of the cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate response to PTH was moderately increased after pretreatment with retinoic acid; while the cellular content of the two isoenzymes of the cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase was approximately equal in control cells, retinoic acid pretreatment was associated with a marked increase in the ratio of type II to type I holoenzyme activity. This change might be due to a decrease in the type I holoenzyme as suggested by immunofluorescence detection of decreased type I regulatory subunit in fixed cells together with the relative decrease in type I holoenzyme determined biochemically; there was a marked alteration of the pattern of PTH-stimulated protein kinase isoenzyme activation from predominantly type I isoenzyme in control cells to almost exclusively type II isoenzyme in retinoic acid-treated cells. Growth inhibition by submaximal amounts of PTH and retinoic acid when added together was greater than that for either agent alone.
