| Abstract |
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) are present in adrenal chromaffin cells, and are co-secreted with catecholamines suggesting that these natriuretic peptides (NPs) may modulate functions of chromaffin cells in an autocrine and/or paracrine manner. Therefore, we investigated the effects of NPs on tyrosine hydroxylase (TH: a rate-limiting enzyme in biosynthesis of catecholamine) mRNA in rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells. It was also determined whether the cyclic GMP/cGMP-dependent protein kinase (cGMP/PKG) pathway was involved in theses effects. Finally, we examined the effects of NPs on intracellular catecholamine content to confirm increase of catecholamine synthesis following TH mRNA induction. NPs (0.1 microM) induced significant increases of the TH mRNA (ANP= BNP> CNP). Also, the effects of NPs on TH mRNA were mimicked by 8-bromo cyclic GMP (1mM), and were blocked by KT5823 (1 microM) (inhibitor PKG) or LY83583 (1 microM) (guanylate cyclase inhibitor). Moreover, NPs were shown to induce significant increases of intracellular catecholamine contents (ANP= BNP> CNP). These findings suggest that NPs induced increases of TH mRNA through cGMP/PKG dependent mechanisms, which, in turn, resulted in stimulation of catecholamine synthesis in PC12 cells.
