In this study, we examined the endothelin (ET) receptor subtype involved in mitogenic signaling in human primary and metastatic melanoma cell lines. In a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) study, ET(B) mRNA expression in metastatic melanoma cells was decreased from that of primary melanoma. Only RPM-EP, a primary recurrent melanoma cell line, showed strong ET(A) mRNA expression. ET-1 and ET-3 stimulated DNA synthesis of primary and recurrent cutaneous melanoma cells in serum-deprived cultures. The growth response to ET-1 in metastatic melanoma cells was decreased from that in primary melanoma cells. [125I]-IRL-1620 binding to PM-WK, a primary melanoma cell line, was significantly blocked by excessive amounts of unlabeled BQ-788. [125I]-IRL-1620 binding to metastatic melanoma cells was significantly decreased from that of primary melanoma cells. From these results, we conclude that the mitogenic effects of ET in human primary melanoma are mainly mediated through ET(B) receptors and that down-regulation of ET(B) receptors causes the decreased growth response of ET-1 in metastatic melanoma cells.
