The hormones bombesin and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) stimulated formation of inositol- monophosphate, bisphosphate, trisphosphate and tetrakisphosphate with parallel time courses in GH4C1 cells, while a more polar inositol polyphosphate peak, consisting of inositol-pentakisphosphate and perhaps also inositol-hexakisphosphate, was unaffected by either hormone. Although bombesin and TRH had similar potencies in stimulating inositol trisphosphate production (Km = 30 nM and 40 nM, respectively), TRH was significantly more efficacious than bombesin. Maximal stimulation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate formation by TRH was not further increased by addition of a maximally effective dose of bombesin, suggesting that the two hormones act through stimulation of a common pool of phospholipase C, and this enzyme pool can be fully stimulated by TRH, alone.
