Abstract:In the present report, we studied the effect of the diglyceride (DG) lipase inhibitor, RHC 80267 on basal and thyrotropin (TSH) - stimulated prostaglandin (PG) release from rat thyroid lobes Further, we tested the effect of RHC 80267 on phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C (PIPLC), DG lipase, and arachidonate cyclo-oxygenase acdtivities in rat thyroid cytosol, plasma membrane, and whole homogenate preparations, r espectively. Whereas RHC 80267 inhibited DG lipase activity in a dose - re;ated manner from 0.5 – 10 μM (17 – 80% inhibition), it failed either PIPLC or arachidonate cyclo-oxygenase activities by more than 9% when tested at 5 and 10 μM (n = 3). RHC 80267 reduced TSH-stimulated 6-keto-PGF and PGE relase by 100 ± 14% and 57 ± 12%, respectively 9x + S.E.; p < 0.01 for both; n = 10 – 12; the diglyceride lipase inhibitor did not reduce basal release of either PG. These data provide additional evidence which implicate a PIPLC - DG lipase pathway in TSH-stimulated PG synthesis in thyroid.
