Abstract
Consecutive challenges with thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) of oocytes expressing the TRH receptor (TRH-R) resulted in a pronounced desensitization, manifested as a decrease in chloride current amplitude and an increase in response latency. Exposure to low concentrations of TRH resulted in a marked decrease in the amplitude of the subsequent response to a higher concentration of the agonist, even though the second challenge was given before the onset of the response to the first challenge (within 3 - 15 s). Cellular calcium concentration ([Ca]i) did not increase within this interval, suggesting that calcium was not involved in the desensitization process. The latency of the second response, however, was either unchanged or shortened, implying additive effects of processes initiated by the first challenge. A longer interval (30 s) between the two challenges brought about a more pronounced decrease in amplitude and a prolongation of response latency. The calcium mobilization initiated by a second challenge with a high concentration of the agonist exhibited a longer latency, a lower rate of [Ca]i increase and a lower amplitude. Stimulation of co-expressed cholinergic-muscarinic ml receptors with a low concentration of acetylch...Continue Reading
