Regulation of atrial natriuretic peptide receptors in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells of rat

Journal Article · · Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun.; (United States)
To elucidate the regulation of vascular receptors for atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), they have studied the binding capacity of /sup 125/I-labeled rat (r) ANP using cultured vascular smooth muscle cells from rat aorta. After preincubation with 3.2 x 10/sup -8/M rANP at 37/sup 0/C, the binding capacity decreased as a function of time; the maximal receptor loss (70-75%) occurred after 4 hrs and persisted for 24 hrs. Pretreatment with cycloheximide (20 ..mu..g/ml) and actinomycin D (2 ..mu..g/ml) similarly caused a dramatic reduction (approx. 80%) of the binding capacity after 24 hrs; the half-life (t/sub 1/2/) of the receptor loss was approx. 7-8 hrs. Following removal of rANP, the down-regulated ANP receptors fully recovered in the presence of 10% fetal calf serum, but not in combination with either actinomycin D or cycloheximide. Concanavalin A dose-dependently inhibited the binding. The binding capacity also decreased with time in the presence of tunicamycin (1 ..mu..g/ml) with t/sub 1/2/ of approx. 30 hrs.
