title: Mechanisms of homologous and heterologous regulation of parathyroid hormone receptors in the rat osteosarcoma cell line UMR-106.
abstract: We have examined the mechanisms of homologous and heterologous regulation of PTH receptor binding and receptor-mediated adenylate cyclase activity in the osteosarcoma cell line UMR-106. Pretreatment with PTH resulted in a time- and dose-dependent decrease in PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase which was maximal after 2 h and at a concentration of 10(-8) M rat (r)PTH-(1-34). PTH pretreatment over the same dose range also diminished receptor binding of 125I-labeled rPTH-(1-34); however, maximal loss of binding required 14 h and was greater than the loss of maximal adenylate cyclase activity. After 24 h pretreatment with rPTH-(1-34), cell surface receptors were decreased from 21,000 sites per cell to 2,700 sites per cell, and these down-regulated PTH receptors could not be detected in either vesicular or cytosolic subcellular fractions. Recovery from such homologous down-regulation appeared to require new receptor synthesis. Heterologous down-regulation of PTH receptors was demonstrated when UMR-106 cells were preincubated with prostaglandin E2 or (Bu)2cAMP. Heterologous desensitization was shown to be the result of a reversible modification of the PTH receptor which decreased binding affinity and decreased PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase. Postreceptor components were also examined, and PTH but not prostaglandin E2 pretreatment was shown to decrease guanyl nucleotide binding (G) protein-mediated adenylate cyclase stimulation. This decrease in G protein function was associated with a loss of cholera toxin-catalyzed ADP ribosylation and was also detected by immunoblotting. These results indicate that PTH responses in osteoblastic cells are modulated by diverse mechanisms involving modifications both to the receptor and to postreceptor components of adenylate cyclase.
