Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a vasodilator of vascular smooth muscle tissue. It has been shown to produce this vasodilation in normotensive and hypertensive laboratory rats. The effect is log dose dependent, maximal at 1 min and persists for 3–5 min. The cellular mechanisms involved in PTH-mediated vasodilation are unknown. In this study, we sought to determine the cellular changes of cAMP after administration of bovine (b)PTH (1–34). cAMP content of vascular smooth muscle cells was measured at 30 s, 1, 3, and 5 min after incubation with synthetic bPTH (1–34). Tissue cAMP content was decreased by 55% at 1 min (4.1 +/- 0.5 pmol/mg protein at time 0 vs. 1.9 +/- 0.2 pmol/mg protein at 1 min, P less than 0.001). After 5 min, cAMP levels returned to base-line values and increased over the next 5–10 min to levels above base line (P less than 0.01). In conclusion, our data suggest that the initial response of vascular smooth muscle cells to short-term incubation with bPTH (1–34) is an acute decrease in cAMP content.
