Aluminum intoxication is associated with low osseous remodeling rate and peripheral resistance to parathyroid hormone (PTH). The pathophysiological mechanism of these aluminum induced changes was investigated using cultured clonal osteoblastic UMR-106 cells as well as dog renal cortical membrane. Both systems possess high-affinity PTH receptors that are coupled to adenylate cyclase. The UMR-106 cells have typical osteoblastic features, including receptors for the tissue-specific hormones, formation and mineralization of a bone-like ground substance and exclusive synthesis of type 1 collagen. The results show that aluminum at a concentration of 4 microM and 40 microM significantly inhibits the cyclic AMP responses to PTH challenge in UMR-106 cells, and this is associated with significant decrease in the binding to the PTH receptor. At 200 microM, no PTH-responsive adenylate cyclase or binding to receptor can be demonstrated. The effect of aluminum on UMR-106 rat osteosarcoma cells is not due to changes in cell number, cell viability or rate of mitogenesis. Similar results are obtained with dog kidney membrane. At a concentration of 10 microM and 400 microM, there is significant inhibition of the binding of PTH to kidney membrane and proportional decrease in PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase. With higher concentration of aluminum, no response or binding can be demonstrated. In conclusion, aluminum at concentrations of 4 to 400 microM is associated with a decrease in affinity of PTH receptor and concomitant suppression of PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
