Regulation of mouse placental lactogen secretion by G proteins before midpregnancy.

Abstract:

:To determine whether G proteins are involved in the regulation of mouse placental lactogen-I (mPL-I) and/or mPL-II secretion before midpregnancy, mouse placental tissue from day 7 of pregnancy was dispersed with collagenase, cells were fractionated on a percoll gradient, and the purified trophoblast cells were cultured in a serum-free medium with cholera toxin (CTX) or pertussis toxin (PTX) which modulate the activities of distinct G proteins for 5 days. CTX inhibited both mPL-I and mPL-II secretion, but PTX inhibited mPL-I secretion and stimulated mPL-II secretion in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Addition of both CTX and PTX additionally inhibited mPL-I secretion but did not affect mPL-II secretion. 8-Bromo cAMP, which increases intracellular cAMP accumulation, inhibited both mPL-I and mPL-II secretion similarly to CTX. In contrast, H8, an inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A, stimulated both mPL-I and mPL-II secretion. Addition of PTX and H8 synergistically stimulated mPL-II secretion. These findings suggest that G proteins play important roles in regulation of mPL-I and mPL-II secretion before midpregnancy.
