Effect of prostaglandin E on the adenyl cyclase-cyclic AMP system and gluconeogenesis in rat renal cortical slices. 1976

A R Morrison, and J Yates, and S Klahr

Prostaglandin E was found to increase the formation of cyclic acdenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) by renal cortical slices. This increased release of cyclic AMP was not influenced by the absence of Ca2+ in the incubating media. The enhanced production of cyclic AMP was probably mediated by stimulation of membrane-bound adenylate cyclase activity. An increase in adenyl cyclase activity was observed with increasing concentrations of prostaglandin E. Furthermore, prostaglandin E augmented glucose production from alpha-ketoglutarate. This effect on gluconeogenesis was abolished by the removal of Ca2+ from the incubating medium. These effects are similar to those described for parathyroid hormone and suggest that the renal cortex is a prostaglandin-dependent system. Prostaglandin E decreased cyclic AMP production and glucose production (from alpha-ketoglutarate) in response to submaximal doses of parathyroid hormone, suggesting that prostaglandin may be important in modulating the intracelluar action of parathyroid hormone in the kidney cortex.

D010281 Parathyroid Hormone A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.

Three of the six naturally occurring prostaglandins. They are considered primary in that no one is derived from another in living organisms. Originally isolated from sheep seminal fluid and vesicles, they are found in many organs and tissues and play a major role in mediating various physiological activities. PGE
D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
