Incubation of dog thyroid slices with 1 μmacetylcholine (ACH) for 3 h followed by a second 2-h incubation without it induces a diminution of stimulation of glucose oxidation by ACH during a third incubation of 45 min. Using a calcium-free medium during all incubations prevents the desensitization and reduces, but does not abolish, ACH stimulation of glucose oxidation. EGTA [ethylene glycol bis(β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N′-tetraacetic acid] (2 mm) added to the calcium-free medium in all incubations prevents both refractoriness and stimulation of glucose oxidation induced by ACH. Calcium depletion during the first incubation only, achieved by using EGTA and a calcium-free medium, also prevents refractoriness but not the augmentation of glucose oxidation caused by ACH. Incubation of thyroid slices with 1 μmionophore A23817 during the 3-h first incubation decreases the stimulation of glucose oxidation induced by its readdition or by 1 μmACH added for the first time in the third incubation. Ionophore-induced desensitization is not related to a cholinergic muscarinic receptor effect. Initial incubation of dog thyroid slices with 1 μmACH diminishes the subsequent stimulation of glucose oxidation by 0.5 μmionophore. However, the ACH-induced desensitization to ionophore can be overcome by a 10-fold increase in the amount of ionophore in the third incubation. Ionophore (1 μm) in the first incubation also induces refractoriness to thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (10 mU/ml)-stimulated glucose oxidation in the third incubation. In contrast, initial incubation of thyroid slices with TSH (25 mU/ml) does not affect the stimulation of glucose oxidation by 0.5 μmionophore added during the third incubation. These results suggest that increased intracellular calcium plays a major role in, or even mediates, ACH-induced desensitization in the thyroid gland.
