Responsiveness to catecholamines was studied in two different strains of rat glioma C6 cells. The C6 cells of low passage possessed a high capacity to accumulate cyclic AMP in response to (-)-isoproterenol. Cholera toxin was also able to stimulate cyclic AMP accumulation in these cells. High passage C6 cells were unresponsive to (-)-isoproterenol or to cholera toxin except in the presence of a high concentration of phosphodiesterase inhibitor. The affinity of beta-adrenergic receptors on both strains for (-) [3H] dihydroalprenolol was similar; however, C6 low passage possessed several times the number of beta-adrenergic receptors found in C6 high passage. This difference correlated with the difference found in (-)-isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase between C6 low passage and high passage. The sodium fluoride-stimulated adenylate cyclase was similar in both strains. Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity was 2-3 times higher in homogenates of C6 high passage than in low passage. In intact cells, the rate of breakdown of cyclic AMP was 5-times faster in C6 high passage than in low passage. Thus, differences in beta-adrenergic receptor number and phosphodiesterase activity explain in part the lack of responsiveness of C6 high passage. Our studies indicate that continuous subculturing of rat glioma C6 cells led to complex alterations in the beta-adrenergic receptor-adenylate cyclase system.
