Abstract: The predominant insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) synthesized by PC12 rat phaeochromocytoma cells is IGFBP-6. Since cAMP agonists regulate IGFBP-6 in other cells, and they may increase neurite outgrowth and catecholaminergic enzyme expression in PC12 cells, we studied regulation of IGFBP-6 by these agents. After 72 h incubation, forskolin and 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP (CPT-cAMP) both increased IGFBP-6 protein levels in conditioned media to maximum levels of 231 +/- 40 and 275 +/- 30%, respectively. Incubation with forskolin resulted in a small, transient rise in IGFBP-6 mRNA levels which was insufficient to account for the increased protein levels. The increased protein levels also could not be attributed to increased cell number, protection of IGFBP-6 from proteolysis or release of IGFBP-6 from a cell-associated reservoir. These findings suggest that increased protein levels may have been due to increased translation of mRNA. Co-incubation of forskolin with dexamethasone (which decreases IGFBP-6 protein and mRNA) demonstrated that the effects of the latter were dominant. The effects of cAMP agonists and IGF-II, which increases IGFBP-6 protein but not mRNA levels, were not inhibited by rapamycin, suggesting that p70 S6 kinase is not involved. The effects of cAMP agonists on IGFBP-6 levels were not directly correlated with neurite outgrowth. These findings extend our knowledge of the molecular basis of the regulation of IGFBP-6 by cAMP agonists, and indicate a novel action of these agents in PC12 cells.
