Studies were undertaken to determine whether PTH-related protein (PTHrP) (107-139) mobilizes [Ca(2+)](i) in osteoblastic osteosarcoma UMR 106 cells. PTHrP (107-139), in a manner similar to PTHrP (107-111), induced a rapid [Ca(2+)](i) response in these cells that was dose dependent (EC(50) of approximately 0.1 pM) and more efficient than that of PTHrP (1-36) (EC(50) of approximately 1 nM). This effect of PTHrP (107-139) was abrogated by micromolar doses of verapamil or nifedipine. However, it was unaffected by 10 microM U73122 (a phospholipase C inhibitor), 100 microg/ml heparin (an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor inhibitor), or 400 ng/ml pertussis toxin (a G(i) inhibitor), which inhibited the [Ca(2+)](i) response to PTHrP (1-36), or by either 25 nM bisindolylmaleimide I (BIM), a protein kinase (PK) C inhibitor, or 1 microM phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate preincubation (22 h). PTHrP (107-139) and PTHrP (1-36), at 100 nM, desensitized the [Ca(2+)](i) response to a second challenge with the same peptide, but not with the other peptide in these cells. PTHrP (7-34), a type 1 PTH/PTHrP receptor (PTH1R) antagonist, decreased the effect of PTHrP (1-36) on [Ca(2+)](i). In contrast, PTHrP (107-111), but neither PTHrP (109-138) nor PTHrP (7-34), abolished this effect of PTHrP (107-139). Both PTHrP (107-139) and PTHrP (1-36), added together at submaximal doses, induced a higher [Ca(2+)](i) response. Moreover, PTHrP (107-139) increased the efficacy of PTHrP (1-36) on [Ca(2+)](i), but decreased its induced increase in PKA activity in these cells. Verapamil or nifedipine (at 50 microM) or 25 nM BIM, but not 25 microM adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphorothioate, Rp-isomer, a PKA inhibitor, abolished the PTHrP (107-139)-induced increase in interleukin 6 messenger RNA (assessed by RT, followed by PCR) in UMR 106 cells. This peptide also increased c-fos messenger RNA in these cells; an effect inhibited by BIM, but unaffected by either verapamil or EGTA. These findings support the existence of high-affinity receptors for PTHrP (107-139), associated with an induced Ca(2+) influx, different from the PTH1R in UMR 106 cells. The present results suggest that PTHrP could affect bone turnover by interacting with the PTH1R and other yet unknown receptors in bone cells through complex mechanisms.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) binds its cognate G-protein-coupled receptor (PTH1R) and signals through both adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C (PLC). C-terminal determinants of the PTH1R interact with the Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor 1 (NHERF-1) by binding the first of two PDZ (psd95, discs-large, ZO-1) domains. Compared with wild-type opossum kidney (OK) cells, OKH cells, a sub-clone, do not display PTH-mediated increases of [Ca2+]i and express NHERF-1 at markedly lower levels. Stable expression of NHERF-1 in the OKH parent (OKH-N1) restores the PTH-mediated increase of [Ca2+]i that arises from an influx of extracellular calcium and is both PLC-dependent and pertussis toxin-sensitive. From a morphological perspective, NHERF-1 and the PTH1R co-localize to apical patches of OKH-N1 cells, an expression pattern that is absent in OKH cells and depends on a direct NHERF-1-PTH1R interaction in OKH-N1 cells. Actin and PLCbeta1 and -beta3 co-localize with NHERF-1 and the PTH1R in OKH-N1 cell apical patches. Actin is also an integral component of the NHERF-1-assembled complex because cytochalasin D disrupts apical localization of both NHERF-1 and the PTH1R and inhibits the PTH-mediated increase of [Ca2+]i. Expression of the first PDZ domain of NHERF-1 acts as a dominant-negative interactor by blocking apical localization of the PTH1R and inhibiting PTH-elicited increases of [Ca2+]i. Thus, NHERF-1 assembles a signaling complex in the apical domains of OK cells that contains the PTH1R, PLCbeta, and the actin cytoskeleton. Disruption of this complex blocks the PTH mediated increases of intracellular calcium.

The PTH receptor (PTH1R) activates multiple signaling pathways, including extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2). The role of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) transactivation in ERK1/2 activation by PTH in distal kidney cells, a primary site of PTH action, was characterized. ERK1/2 phosphorylation was stimulated by PTH and blocked by the EGFR inhibitor, AG1478. Upon PTH stimulation, metalloprotease cleavage of membrane-bound heparin-binding fragment (HB-EGF) induced EGFR transactivation of ERK. Conditioned media from PTH-treated distal kidney cells activated ERK in HEK-293 cells. AG1478 added to HEK-293 cells ablated transactivation by conditioned media. HB-EGF directly activated ERK1/2 in HEK-293 cells. Pretreatment of distal kidney cells with the metalloprotease inhibitor GM-6001 abolished transactivation of ERK1/2 by PTH. The role of the PTH1R COOH terminus in PTX-sensitive ERK1/2 activation was characterized in HEK-293 cells transfected with wild-type PTH1R, with a PTH1R mutated at its COOH terminus, or with PTH1R truncated at position 480. PTH stimulated ERK by wild-type, mutated and truncated PTH1Rs 21-, 27- and 57-fold, respectively. Thus, the PTH1R COOH terminus exerts an inhibitory effect on ERK activation. EBP50, a scaffolding protein that binds to the PDZ recognition domain of the PTH1R, impaired PTH but not isoproterenol or calcitonin-induced ERK activation. Pertussis toxin inhibited PTH-stimulated ERK1/2 by mutated and truncated PTH1Rs and abolished ERK1/2 activation by wild-type PTH1R. We conclude that ERK phosphorylation in distal kidney cells by PTH requires PTH1R activation of G(i), which leads to stimulation of metalloprotease-mediated cleavage of HB-EGF and transactivation of the EGFR and is regulated by EBP50.
