Although PTH and PTH-related protein (PTHrP) are vasodilators, prolonged exposure to elevated levels of PTH is often associated with hypertension. We investigated the effects of prolonged incubation with PTH or PTHrP on arterial segments and cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). PTH or PTHrP transiently relaxed precontracted arterial segments within 10 min. Additional PTH or PTHrP added after 40-min exposure to these peptides had little effect on vascular tone, whereas forskolin, isoproterenol, isobutylmethyl-xanthine, or acetylcholine were still potent. In fura 2-loaded VSMC, 5-min incubation with PTH or PTHrP attenuated angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced calcium mobilization, an effect that was reduced by preincubation of VSMC with PTH for 1.5 h. Similarly, 1.5-h preincubation with PTH or PTHrP decreased the cAMP response to these peptides but not to forskolin or NaF. Ang II potentiated the cAMP response to PTH and PTHrP but was also subject to desensitization. Nle8, 18Tyr34 bovine PTH(3-34) amide did not desensitize vascular tissue to PTH or PTHrP. Our results suggest that homologous desensitization to PTH or PTHrP in vascular tissue requires receptor stimulation, occurs proximal to G stimulatory protein, and impairs attenuation of calcium mobilization by PTH or PTHrP. This may be a mechanism by which vasodilator effects of these peptides are decreased with prolonged elevation of PTH levels. |
