Treatment of cultured rat Sertoli cells with FSH or dibutyryl cAMP for 30 min resulted in phosphorylation of the same Sertoli cell proteins. Different Sertoli cell proteins were phosphorylated after calcium ionophore A23187 and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) treatment. A23187 stimulated the phosphorylation of hsp27, while TPA alone had no effect. TPA plus A23187 resulted in phosphorylation of a 14 kDa protein, in addition to hsp27. The effect of TPA plus A23187 was identical to that of germ cells on Sertoli cell protein phosphorylation. FSH-stimulated cAMP production by Sertoli cells was reduced by prior exposure of Sertoli cells to germ cells. The results indicate that germ cells stimulate Sertoli cells by the inositol trisphosphate/diacylglycerol mediated second messenger pathway. The results also suggest that the germ cell-activated pathway interacts within Sertoli cells to modulate Sertoli cell response to FSH.
