Abstract：
:We sought to investigate whether dexamethasone produces a coordinated, time-dependent effect on all enzymes in the catecholamine biosynthetic pathway in PC12 cells. The levels of mRNAs of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC), and dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) were examined at 0, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h after dexamethasone (5 microM) treatment to PC12 cells. The levels of all enzyme mRNAs steadily increased for 24 h, although the increase of AADC mRNA content was slow. The increased mRNA levels of TH and AADC were maintained at 48 h, whereas the level of DBH mRNA was sharply decreased at 48 h. The maximally induced mRNA levels were approximately 5.0-, 2.4-, and 7.0-fold higher than the control levels of TH, AADC, and DBH, respectively. The elevation of enzyme activities was detected later than the increase in levels of mRNAs. The maximal activities of TH, AADC, and DBH were reached between 48 and 72 h with 3.6-, 1.8-, and 8.0-fold increases, respectively. Low, but detectable, phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PNMT) activity was observed in PC12 cells, and dexamethasone increased its activity 5.6-fold at 72 h. The PNMT mRNA was easily detected by northern blot analysis after exposure for 24 h to dexamethasone. The data suggest that, in PC12 cells, dexamethasone up-regulates all catecholamine biosynthetic enzyme genes in a parallel fashion.
