title: Control by thyrotropin of the production by thyroid cells of an inositol phosphate-glycan.
abstract: The increased turnover of phosphatidylinositol promoted by thyrotropin (TSH) in pig thyroid tissue does not seem to be caused by an increased production of inositol tris-phosphate. We have explored another possibility, the synthesis of an inositol phosphate-glycan (IP-gly). Our results show that thyroid cells in culture produced this substance from a precursor phosphatidylinositol-glycan (Gly-PI). The obtained IP-gly seemed, by its analytical and biological properties, to be identical, or similar, to the previously described insulin mediator.
