An HTLV-I-infected human lymphocyte line (MT-2) was evaluated for 1) the presence of receptors for PTH-related protein (PTHrP), 2) cell proliferation in response to PTHrP, and 3) adrenylate cyclase and intracellular calcium response to PTHrP. PTHrP-(1-36) was labeled with 125I, purified, and used to detect binding to MT-2 cells. Specific binding ranged between 4-9% of the total radioactivity. Specific binding increased with increasing cell number, was maximal within 30-60 min, and was highest at 37 C. Scatchard analysis revealed a one-binding site fit, with a Kd of 14.5 nM. Binding was not competed for by calcitonin, calcitonin gene-related peptide, or interleukin-1 beta. PTHrP at 1.0 and 0.1 microM inhibited proliferation in MT-2 cells. PTHrP did not alter adenylate cyclase stimulation in MT-2 cells, but did cause an increase in intracellular calcium. These findings indicate that MT-2 cells have receptors for PTHrP and are consistent with a potential autocrine role of PTHrP in HTLV-I-infected lymphoid cells.

Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF beta) produced by osteoblasts is present in high levels in bone and influences bone formation, replication of bone cells, and expression of osteoblast protein products. Interactions between bone active hormones and locally released and activated TGF beta were studied by examining the influence of TGF beta preincubation on PTH, calcitonin (CT), and vitamin D receptors in an osteoblastic cell line (UMR 106-06). Preincubation of UMR 106-06 cells with 1 ng/ml TGF beta for 3 days increased specific binding of [125I]PTH-related protein (PTHrP)(1-84) to 140% of that in control cells, but [125I]salmon CT binding decreased to 50% of controls. Binding isotherms indicated that the changes in binding were due to altered receptor numbers since affinities for 125I-labeled PTH and CT remained unchanged. The effect on receptor levels was time dependent, requiring 24 h preincubation with TGF beta for measurable changes, and dose dependent, with maximal effects seen with 1 ng/ml TGF beta. Binding of [3H]1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 was increased to 130% of control in cytosolic extracts of UMR 106-06 cells pretreated for 3 days with 1 ng/ml TGF beta. Scatchard plots suggested an increase in receptor number without change in affinity. The adenylate cyclase response to PTH increased to 150% of control cells after 3 days of treatment with 1 ng/ml TGF beta; however, the adenylate cyclase response to CT was little changed. Forskolin- and cholera toxin-stimulated adenylate cyclase responses were increased by TGF beta treatment to 130-160% of control, indicating an increase in the stimulatory subunit of the G protein. Increased abundance of both Gs and Gi proteins were indicated by increased cholera toxin- or pertussis toxin-dependent [32P] NAD ribosylation of 47-kilodalton (kDa) and 42-kDa or 40-kDa proteins, respectively, in TGF beta-treated cells. Our data support a complex regulatory effect of TGF beta on UMR 106-06 cells with increases in PTH receptors, vitamin D receptors, and G proteins, whereas there is an apparent down-regulation of CT receptors. TGF beta might induce a more differentiated osteoblast phenotype of these cells, which already express differentiated features such as high alkaline phosphatase activity, PTH and vitamin D receptors, and collagenase production. Since low doses of PTH stimulate bone formation in vivo, TGF beta released or activated at sites of new bone formation might locally modulate PTH activity be allowing increased PTH receptor and postreceptor effectiveness.

The effects of the monokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) and interleukin 1 (IL 1) on parathyroid hormone (PTH)-responsive adenylate cyclase were examined in clonal rat osteosarcoma cells (UMR-106) with the osteoblast phenotype. Recombinant TNF and IL 1 incubated with UMR-106 cells for 48 hr each produced concentration-dependent inhibition of PTH-sensitive adenylate cyclase, with maximal inhibition of PTH response (40% for TNF, 24% for IL 1) occurring at 10(-8) M of either monokine. Both monokines also decreased adenylate cyclase stimulation by the tumor-derived PTH-related protein (PTHrP). In contrast, TNF and IL 1 had little or no inhibitory effect on receptor-mediated stimulation of adenylate cyclase by isoproterenol and nonreceptor-mediated enzyme activation by cholera toxin and forskolin; both monokines increased prostaglandin E2 stimulation of adenylate cyclase. Binding of the radioiodinated agonist mono-[125I]-[Nle8,18, Tyr34]bPTH-(1-34)NH2 to UMR-106 cells in the presence of increasing concentrations of unlabeled [Nle8,18, Tyr34]bPTH-(1-34)NH2 revealed a decline in PTH receptor density (Bmax) without change in receptor binding affinity (dissociation constant, Kd) after treatment with TNF or IL 1. Pertussis toxin increased PTH-sensitive adenylate cyclase activity but did not attenuate monokine-induced inhibition of PTH response. In time course studies, brief (1 hr) exposure of cells to TNF or IL 1 during early culture was sufficient to decrease PTH response but only after exposed cells were subsequently allowed to grow for prolonged periods. Inhibition of PTH response by monokines was blocked by cycloheximide. The results indicate that TNF and IL 1 impair responsiveness to PTH (and PTHrP) by a time- and protein synthesis-dependent down-regulation of PTH receptors linked to adenylate cyclase.

Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is a potent bone-resorbing protein that frequently mediates the humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy syndrome. Since prostaglandins may mediate the bone-resorptive action of certain hormones, we examined the effect of PTHrP on prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) secretion by human osteoblast-like cells. There was low-level basal secretion of PGE2 by Saos-2 cells (8.1 +/- 0.6 pg/ml). Using four different preparations of PTHrP, it was observed that with increasing peptide length, from 36 to 141 amino acids, a significant increase in efficacy for PGE2 release was seen in these cells. All forms of PTHrP were agonists for PGE2 release, with effects seen at concentrations as low as 10(-12) M in 48 h conditioned media. The amino terminus of the molecule appeared critical for this effect since the truncated derivative PTHrP-(7-34) did not induce significant PGE2 secretion. However, the influence of peptide length could not be explained by differential activation of adenylate cyclase since [Tyr36]PTHrP-(1-36)amide was equipotent to the longest peptide preparation, PTHrP-(1-141), in stimulating cyclic AMP accumulation in the Saos-2 cells. In contrast, PTHrP-(1-141) was significantly more effective than [Tyr35]PTHrP-(1-36)-amide in inducing a rise in cytosolic calcium. Further, this effect was noted at concentrations lower than those that caused significant cyclic AMP accumulation in the Saos-2 cells. PTHrP-(1-141) induced the release of PGE2 from primary human bone cell cultures to levels entirely comparable to those seen in the Saos-2 cells. PTHrP-(1-141) also induced PGE2 release by cultured fetal rat long bones at 72 h. We conclude that the carboxy-terminal region of PTHrP has important effects on cellular signal transduction pathways and on the release of a potent bone-active cytokine, PGE2.

Cyclization of parathyroid hormone related protein (7-34)amide [PTHrP(7-34)NH2] via covalent bond formation between the epsilon-amino of Lys13 and the beta-carboxyl of Asp17 yielded a 20-membered ring lactam. This analogue, [Lys13,Asp17]PTHrP(7-34)NH2, was 5-10-fold more potent than the linear parent peptide (Kb = 15 and 18 nM in PTH receptor binding assays, and Ki = 130 and 17 nM in PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase assays in bovine renal cortical membrane and in human bone derived B10 cells, respectively). In contrast, a linear analogue in which charges in positions 13 and 17 were eliminated and other stereoisomers of the above-mentioned lactam in which either Lys13 and/or Asp17 were replaced by the corresponding D-amino acids were much less potent with regard to antagonist bioactivity than the parent peptide. The rationale for the design of the lactam as well as the conformational implications for the PTHrP sequence in light of reported models suggested for the 1-34 peptide are described. The potential use of conformationally constrained analogues for elucidating the "bioactive conformation" of antagonists and for the design of substantially simplified molecular structures for antagonists is discussed.

The hypercalcemic Walker carcinosarcoma 256 of the rat is an animal model for humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. Previous in vivo studies suggested the production of a parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) by the Walker tumor. Therefore, we have measured immunoreactive PTHrP in serum-free conditioned medium from cells derived from this tumor using an antibody raised against human PTHrP(1-34). Walker tumor cell conditioned medium (WCM) displaced 125I-hPTHrP(1-34) from the antibody in a dose dependent manner, whereas control medium contained no immunoreactive PTHrP. In contrast, we detected no secretion of immunoreactive rat parathyroid hormone (rat PTH) by the Walker tumor cells using a midregional radioimmunoassay for rat PTH. WCM stimulated adenylate cyclase in osteoblast like cells, the dose-response curve paralleling that of hPTHrP(1-34). This effect could be inhibited by the PTH antagonist (8Nle, 18Nle, 34Tyr)bPTH(3-34) and by the addition of anti-hPTHrP(1-34) antibody. Bone resorbing activity of WCM in organ culture (calvaria of fetal rats) was not inhibited by indomethacin and glucocorticoids, suggesting a prostaglandin independent mechanism of osteoclast activation in this model.

Two human parathyroid hormone-related protein (hPTHrP) fragments were tested for effects on maternofetal transfer of 45Ca and Mg across the in-situ perfused rat placenta at 21 days of gestation (term = 23 days). The fetal placental circulation was perfused with a Mg-free Krebs-Ringer solution and the unidirectional maternofetal clearance (Kmf) of 45Ca and Mg compared with that of 51Cr-EDTA, the latter being employed as a paracellular diffusional marker. Placental perfusion with hPTHrP(1-34) (100 ng/ml) or hPTHrP(75-86)amide (50 ng/ml) did not significantly alter the Kmf of 45Ca or that of Mg. In separate rats, however, hPTHrP(1-34) but not hPTHrP(75-86)amide stimulated marked placental cyclic AMP (cAMP) release, the peak response of 63 +/- 7 pmol/min occurring 10 min after the beginning of the peptide perfusion. A lower dose of hPTHrP(1-34) (4 ng/ml) produced a similar peak release of cAMP, as did [Nle8,21, Tyr34]-rPTH(1-34)amide (4 ng/ml) and the adenylate cyclase agonist forskolin (17 mumol/l). Forskolin also rapidly increased the Kmf of 45Ca but not that of Mg or 51Cr-EDTA. The present study indicates that hPTHrP does not acutely affect maternofetal transfer of Ca or Mg across the perfused rat placenta. The data also question the role played by cAMP in the stimulatory actions of forskolin on placental Ca transport.

The complementary DNA encoding a 585-amino acid parathyroid hormone-parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTH-PTHrP) receptor with seven potential membrane-spanning domains was cloned by COS-7 expression using an opossum kidney cell complementary DNA (cDNA) library. The expressed receptor binds PTH and PTHrP with equal affinity, and both ligands equivalently stimulate adenylate cyclase. Striking homology with the calcitonin receptor and lack of homology with other G protein-linked receptors indicate that receptors for these calcium-regulating hormones are related and represent a new family.

The effects of transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF alpha) were determined on the ability of parathyroid hormone (PTH) or parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) to stimulate bone resorption and adenylate cyclase in vitro. Bovine PTH-(1-34) and human PTHrP-(1-34) were equipotent in their ability to stimulate bone resorption in neonatal mouse calvaria with maximal stimulation (2.9 and 2.8-fold increases in 45Ca release, respectively) at a concentration of 10 nM. Combinations of TGF alpha with bPTH-(1-34) or hPTHrP-(1-34) had additive effects on their ability to stimulate bone resorption when submaximal concentrations of the agonists were used. There was no evidence of synergism between TGF alpha bPTH-(1-34) or hPTHrP-(1-34) in their ability to stimulate bone resorption in vitro, nor was TGF alpha able to increase bone resorption induced by maximal concentrations of bPTH-(1-34) or hPTHrP-(1-34). TGF alpha potentiated the effects of either bPTH-(1-34) or hPTHrP-(1-34) on the stimulation of adenylate cyclase in osteoblast-like ROS 17/2.8 cells. These data indicate that TGF alpha has additive effects with submaximal concentrations of PTH or PTHrP on their ability to stimulate bone resorption which may be important in the pathogenesis of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy.

Inhibitory activity on renal membrane adenylate cyclase (AC) has previously been found in the extract of a pancreatic cancer associated with humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (HHM). AC inhibitor was purified employing inhibition of AC activity of renal membrane stimulated by forskolin as its index. N-terminal 9 residues and a digested fragment of purified protein (14 residues) were completely consistent with that of histones H1b and H1d. Not only histone H1 but also histones H2A, H2B and H3 from calf thymus inhibited AC activity. These results indicate that the AC inhibitor in the pancreatic cancer extract is histone H1b or H1d and histones H2A, H2B and H3 also have an AC inhibitory activity.
