A single injection of either isoproternol or N6, O2'-dibutyryl adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (dibutyryl cyclic AMP) results in an inhibition in the rate of [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA of differentiating cardiac muscle of the neonatal rat. This inhibition is not due to substantially altered cellular uptake or catabolism of [3H]thymidine. Inhibition of [3H]thymidine incorporation by isoproterenol or dibutyryl cyclic AMP is potentiated by theophylline. Maximal inhibition (95%) is observed 24 h after administration of isoproterenol, and the rate of incorporation returns to a value 80% of control by 72 h. Norepinephrine also inhibits [3H]thymidine incorporation whereas cyclic GMP, N2, 02-Dibutyryl guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (dibutyryl cyclic GMP), and phenylephrine have little effect. Equilibrium sedimentation analysis of cardiac muscle DNA in neutral and alkaline cesium chloride gradients using bromodeoxyuridine as a density label indicate that isoproterenol and dibutyryl cyclic AMP inhibit [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA that is replicating semiconservatively. Administration of isoproterenol or dibutyryl cyclic AMP to neonatal rats inhibits by approximately 60% the incorporation of [3H]thymidine into DNA of tissue slices of cardiac muscle prepared 16 h later. [3H]Thymidine incorporation into DNA of tissue slices is into chains that were growing in vivo. This incorporation is linear for at least 4 h of incubation and is inhibited by isoproterenol and dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Inhibition is not due to altered cellular uptake of [3H]thymidine nor is it due to a cytotoxic action. Several other compounds which elevate intracellular levels of cyclic AMP (epinephrine, norepinephrine, glucagon, and prostaglandin E1) also inhibit [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA or cardiac muscle tissue slices. Cyclic GMP, dibutyryl cyclic GMP, sodium butyrate, and phenylephrine have little effect. Isoproterenol administered together with theophylline to neonatal rats signficantly stimulates the in corporation of [3H]phenylalanine into total cardiac muscle protein and into myosin. This enhanced incorporation may be due in part to an increase in the cellular uptake of [3H]phenylalanine. DNA synthesis decreases progressively in differentiating cardiac muscle of the rat during postnatal development and essentially ceases by the middle of the third week (Claycomb, W. C. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 3229-3235). In reviewing the literature it was found that this decline in synthetic activity correlates temporally with a progressive increase in tissue concentrations of norepinephrine and cyclic AMP and with the anatomical and physiological development of the adrenergic nerves in this tissue. Because of these facts and data presented in this report it is proposed that cell proliferation and cell differentiation in cardiac muscle may be controlled by adrenergic innervation with norepinephrine and cyclic AMP serving as chemical mediators.
