TRH has been reported to possess several neurophysiological actions in the brain. To gain insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying these effects, particularly in the cerebellum, we attempted to clone a cDNA that was regulated by TRH using TRH knockout mice and subtractive cDNA analysis. Over 100 clones obtained by subtractive hybridization analysis between the wild-type and TRH-1-cerebellum were analyzed. Four clones among them were identical and cdc2-related kinase (PFTAIRE protein kinase 1 (PFTK1)) cDNA, which was previously reported to be expressed only in the brain and testis. PFTK1 mRNA levels in the euthyroid TRH-1- cerebellum supplemented with thyroid hormone were significantly decreased compared with those in the wild-type. Induction of PFTK1 mRNA by TRH was also observed in a time- and dose-dependent manner in human medulloblastoma-derived HTB-185 cells that expressed TRH receptor subtype I mRNA. In addition, treatment of 8-Br-cGMP significantly increased PFTK1 mRNA levels, and a specific inhibitor of cGMP production, ODQ, completely blocked TRH-induced expression of PFTK1 mRNA. Furthermore, induction of PFrK1 mRNA by TRH was significantly inhibited by a NOS specific inhibitor, L-NAME, but not by a MEK inhibitor, PD98059 or a calcium channel inhibitor, nimodipine. These findings demonstrated, for the first time, a novel pathway between a neuropeptide and a cell cycle related peptide in the brain, and PFTK1 may be a key regulator for TRH action in t he cerebellum through t he NO-cGMP pathway.
