Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase promotes glucocorticoid receptor function.

D J Gruol, N F Campbell, S Bourgeois

    The Journal of Biological Chemistry
    |April 15, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary

    Cyclic AMP (cAMP) regulates glucocorticoid receptor function in WEHI-7 lymphoma cells. Defective cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity promotes steroid resistance, revealing a novel two-step selection for glucocorticoid resistance.

    Area of Science:

    • Cell Biology
    • Molecular Endocrinology
    • Cancer Research

    Background:

    • Murine lymphoma cell lines (WEHI-7) show sensitivity to both cAMP and glucocorticoids.
    • Glucocorticoid receptor (GR) function is crucial in cellular responses.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the role of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in regulating glucocorticoid receptor function.
    • To explore a novel two-step selection method for isolating glucocorticoid-resistant cell lines.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized cAMP-resistant (cAMPr) WEHI-7 cell lines with defective PKA activity.
    • Compared spontaneous steroid-resistant variant frequency in wild-type versus cAMPr cells.
    • Assessed glucocorticoid receptor binding levels in response to cAMP stimulation.

    Main Results:

    • cAMPr cells exhibited a significantly higher frequency of spontaneous glucocorticoid resistance compared to wild-type cells.
    • A single selection of cAMPr derivatives led to near-complete loss of glucocorticoid receptor function.
    • cAMP increased steroid binding in a PKA-phenotype-dependent manner.

    Conclusions:

    • cAMP plays a critical role in modulating glucocorticoid receptor activity.
    • The identified two-step selection scheme effectively isolates novel forms of glucocorticoid resistance.
    • PKA activity is essential for maintaining normal glucocorticoid receptor function and sensitivity.
