Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) plays a major role in coordinating the organism's stress response, including the activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis. The molecular underpinnings of CRH-dependent signal transduction mechanisms in the anterior pituitary have not yet been revealed in detail. In order to dissect the signal transduction cascades activated by CRH receptor type 1, a comparative proteome approach was performed in vitro utilizing murine corticotroph AtT-20 cells. Alterations in protein expression and posttranslational modification in response to CRH stimulation were studied by 2D gel electrophoresis. Selected candidates were analyzed by immunoblotting and quantitative real-time PCR. The differential analyses revealed proteins regulated or modified related to diverse cellular processes. Amongst others we identified alterations in PRKAR1A, the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A; in PGK1 and PGAM1, key regulators of glycolysis; and in proteins involved in proteasome-mediated proteolysis, PSMC2 and PSMA3. These results offer novel entry points to molecular mechanisms underlying stress responses elicited via the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis.
