Abstract
The human synoviocyte increases its intracellular adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) concentration significantly after incubation with prostaglandin E1, prostaglandin E2, or l-epinephrine. The cells can be desensitized to these same hormones. Hormone-induced desensitization is receptor site specific and associated with a significant increase in intracellular 3':5'-cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4. 17; 3':5'-cyclic AMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase) activity, whereas cAMP-induced desensitization is not hormone specific.Entities:
