The involvement of tissue cAMP in the vasodilating action of parathyroid hormone (PTH) was investigated. The bovine active fragment bPTH-(1-34) was used in all studies. In anesthetized dogs, theophylline, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, potentiated the hypotensive action of bPTH-(1-34) at the dose of 1 microgram/kg. The potentiation was related to the dose of theophylline infused. In an in vitro rat tail artery helical strip assay, dibutyryl cAMP produced dose-related relaxation in arginine vasopressin (AVP) constricted blood vessels. bPTH-(1-34) also produced dose-related relaxation in the tail artery constricted by AVP. In the presence of isobutylmethylxanthine, another phosphodiesterase inhibitor, the bPTH-(1-34) dose--response curve was shifted to the left, indicating potentiation. Imidazole, which has phosphodiesterase stimulating activity, significantly decreased the in vitro vasorelaxing effect of bPTH-(1-34). In addition, bPTH-(1-34) increased significantly the rat tail artery cAMP content. b-PTH-(1-34) oxidized with hydrogen peroxide lost its vasorelaxing activity and was also ineffective in increasing the tail artery cAMP content. All these data strongly suggest that cAMP may be involved in eliciting the vasorelaxing action of bPTH-(1-34).
