Modulation of adenylate cyclase/cyclic AMP response by thyrotropin and prostaglandin E2 in cultured thyroid cells. 1. Negative regulation.

Isolated porcine thyroid cells, cultured in the presence of thyrotropin (greater than or equal to 0.25 mU/ml) or prostaglandin E2 (greater than or equal to 0.1 micron), showed decreased adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) response to further thyrotropin or prostaglandin E2 stimulation, respectively. Kinetics of the refractory process to thyrotropin and prostaglandin E2 are different: (a) maximal refractoriness to prostaglandin E2 was attained after 2--6 h exposure to prostaglandin E2 while refractoriness to thyrotropin was maximal only after 12--24 h; (b) the degree of refractoriness to prostaglandin E2 was much greater than that to thyrotropin. Refractoriness to thyrotropin or prostaglandin E2 is characterized: by specificity for each thyroid stimulator; by dependence upon the dose of thyrotropin or prostaglandin E2 in culture, e.g. induction of high degree of refractoriness with 0.5 mU/ml thyrotropin (or 1 micron prostaglandin E2), which elicits only a small cyclic AMP increase; by time requirement for induction; by partial effect; by changes of maximum activation of cyclic AMP response; by reversibility. This refractoriness of the cyclic AMP response was not induced by dibutyryl adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate. It was not attributed to increased cyclic AMP-phosphodiesterase activity, but to alterations in the receptor-adenylate cyclase system. Prevention of refractoriness to thyrotropin or prostaglandin E2 by incubation of cells in the presence of actinomycin D, puromycin and cycloheximide suggests that new RNA and protein syntheses are required for the development of the refractory state.
