The solution conformations of a selectively osteogenic 1-31 fragment of the human parathyroid hormone (hPTH), hPTH(1-31)NH(2), have been characterized by use of very high field NMR spectroscopy at 800 MHz. The combination of the CalphaH proton and (13)Calpha chemical shifts, (3)J(NH)(alpha) coupling constants, NH proton temperature coefficients, and backbone NOEs reveals that the hPTH(1-31)NH(2) peptide has well-formed helical structures localized in two distinct segments of the polypeptide backbone. There are also many characteristic NOEs defining specific side-chain/backbone and side-chain/side-chain contacts within both helical structures. The solution structure of hPTH(1-31)NH(2) contains a short N-terminal helical segment for residues 3-11, including the helix capping residues 3 and 11 and a long C-terminal helix for residues 16-30. The two helical structures are reinforced by well-defined capping motifs and side-chain packing interactions within and at both ends of these helices. On one face of the C-terminal helix, there are side-chain pairs of Glu22-Arg25, Glu22-Lys26, and Arg25-Gln29 that can form ion-pair and/or hydrogen bonding interactions. On the opposite face of this helix, there are characteristic hydrophobic interactions involving the aromatic side chain of Trp23 packing against the aliphatic side chains of Leu15, Leu24, Lys27, and Leu28. There is also a linear array of hydrophobic residues from Val2, to Leu7, to Leu11 and continuing on to residues His14 and Leu15 in the hinge region and to Trp23 in the C-terminal helix. Capping and hydrophobic interactions at the end of the N-terminal and at the beginning of the C-terminal helix appear to consolidate the helical structures into a V-shaped overall conformation for at least the folded population of the hPTH(1-31)NH(2) peptide. Stabilization of well-folded conformations in this linear 1-31 peptide fragment and possibly other analogues of human PTH may have a significant impact on the biological activities of the PTH peptides in general and specifically for the osteogenic/anabolic activities of bone-building PTH analogues. 相似文献

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is involved in regulation of the calcium level in blood and has an influence on bone metabolism, thus playing a role in osteoporosis therapy. In this study, the structures of the human PTH fragments (1-34) and (1-39) as well as bovine PTH(1-37) in aqueous buffer solution under near physiological conditions were determined using two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The overall structure of the first 34 amino acids of these three peptides is virtually identical, exhibiting a short NH(2)-terminal and a longer COOH-terminal helix as well as a defined loop region from His14 to Ser17, stabilized by hydrophobic interactions. bPTH(1-37), which has a higher biological activity, shows a better-defined NH(2)-terminal part. In contrast to NH(2)-terminal truncations, which cause destabilization of helical structure, neither COOH-terminal truncation nor elongation significantly influences the secondary structure. Furthermore, we investigated the structure of hPTH(1-34) in 20% trifluoroethanol solution. In addition to its helix-stabilizing effect, trifluorethanol causes the loss of tertiary hydrophobic interactions. 相似文献

The N-terminal 1-34 segment of parathyroid hormone (PTH) is fully active in vitro and in vivo and it can reproduce all biological responses in bone characteristic of the native intact PTH. Recent studies have demonstrated that N-terminal fragments presenting the principal activating domain such as PTH(1-11) and PTH(1-14) with helicity-enhancing substitutions yield potent analogues with PTH(1-34)-like activity. To further investigate the role of alpha-helicity on biological potency, we designed and synthesized by solid-phase methodology the following hPTH(1-11) analogues substituted at positions 1 and/or 3 by the sterically hindered and helix-promoting C(alpha)-tetrasubstituted alpha-amino acids alpha-amino isobutyric acid (Aib), 1-aminocyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid (Ac(5)c) and 1-aminocyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid (Ac(6)c): Ac(5)c-V-Aib-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (I); Aib-V-Ac(5)c-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (II); Ac(6)c-V-Aib-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (III); Aib-V-Ac(6)c-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (IV); Aib-V-Aib-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (V); S-V-Aib-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (VI), S-V-Ac(5)c-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (VII); Ac(5)c-V-S-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (VIII); Ac(6)c-V-S-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (IX); Ac(5)c-V-Ac(5)c-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (X); Ac(6)c-V-Ac(6)c-E-I-Q-L-M-H-Q-R-NH(2) (XI). All analogues were biologically evaluated and conformationally characterized in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) solution by circular dichroism (CD). Analogues I-V, which cover the full range of biological activity observed in the present study, were further conformationally characterized in detail by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and computer simulations studies. The results of ligand-stimulated cAMP accumulation experiments indicated that analogues I and II are active, analogues III, VI and VII are very weakly active and analogues IV, V, VIII-XI are inactive. The most potent analogue, I exhibits biological activity 3500-fold higher than that of the native PTH(1-11) and only 15-fold weaker than that of the native sequence hPTH(1-34). Remarkably, the two most potent analogues, I and II, and the very weakly active analogues, VI and VII, exhibit similar helix contents. These results indicate that the presence of a stable N-terminal helical sequence is an important but not sufficient condition for biological activity. 相似文献

We have previously shown that a recombinant human PTH fragment, Pro‐Pro‐[Arg11] hPTH (1–34)‐Pro‐Pro‐Asp (hPTH′), could be a potentially better and more cost‐effective therapeutic agent than PTH (1–34) on osteoporosis. In this report, we characterized the solution conformations of hPTH′ by NMR spectroscopy and modeled the interactions between the hPTH′ and the PTH receptor. By comparing it with PTH (1–34) structures and their respective interactions with the PTH receptor, we identified two segments of helix extending from Ile5 to Met8 and from Glu22 to Gln29 with a divided kink between the two helixes around Arg20. Mutated arginine makes hPTH′ fill the receptor cavity better as well as forms hydrogen bonds with Val193. Understanding the ligand receptor interactions will help us design small molecules to better mimic the activities of PTH. Copyright © 2012 European Peptide Society and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The N-terminal fragment 1-34 of parathyroid hormone (PTH), administered intermittently, results in increased bone formation in patients with osteoporosis. PTH and a related molecule, parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP), act on cells via a common PTH/PTHrP receptor. To define more precisely the ligand-receptor interactions, we have crystallized human PTH (hPTH)-(1-34) and determined the structure to 0.9-A resolution. hPTH-(1-34) crystallizes as a slightly bent, long helical dimer. Analysis reveals that the extended helical conformation of hPTH-(1-34) is the likely bioactive conformation. We have developed molecular models for the interaction of hPTH-(1-34) and hPTHrP-(1-34) with the PTH/PTHrP receptor. A receptor binding pocket for the N terminus of hPTH-(1-34) and a hydrophobic interface with the receptor for the C terminus of hPTH-(1-34) are proposed. 相似文献

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH-related protein (PTHrP) exert their calciotropic activities by binding to a specific seven-transmembrane-helix-containing G protein-coupled receptor mainly located in bone and kidney cells. In order to map in detail the nature of hormone-receptor interaction, we are employing 'photoaffinity scanning' of the bimolecular interface. To this end, we have developed photoreactive benzophenone (BP)-containing PTH analogs which can be specifically and efficiently cross-linked to the human (h) PTH/PTHrP receptor. In this report, we describe the photocross-linking of a BP-containing PTH antagonist, [Nle8,18,D-2-Nal12,Lys13(epsilon-BP),2-Nal23,Tyr34]bPT H(7-34)NH2 (ANT) to the recombinant hPTH/PTHrP receptor stably expressed in human embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293, clone C-21). This photoreactive antagonist has high affinity for the hPTH/PTHrP receptor and inhibits agonist-induced cyclase activity and intracellular calcium release. The photo-induced cross-linking of the radioiodinated antagonist (125I-ANT) to the recombinant hPTH/PTHrP receptor followed by SDS-PAGE analysis reveals a single radiolabeled band of approximately 85kDa, similar to that observed after cross-linking of a radioiodinated BP-containing agonist. The formation of this covalent 125I-ANT - hPTH/PTHrP receptor conjugate is competed dose-dependently by a variety of unlabelled PTH- and PTHrP-derived agonists and antagonists. This is the first report of a specific and efficient photocross-linking of a radioiodinated PTH antagonist to the hPTH/PTHrP receptor. Therefore, it provides the opportunity to study directly the nature of the bimolecular interaction of PTH antagonist with the hPTH/PTHrP receptor. 相似文献

Intermittent treatment with parathyroid hormone (PTH) increases bone formation and prevents bone loss in hindlimb-unloaded (HLU) rats. However, the mechanisms of action of PTH are incompletely known. To explore possible interactions between weight bearing and PTH, we treated 6-mo-old weight-bearing and HLU rats with a human therapeutic dose (1 microg.kg(-1).day(-1)) of human PTH(1-34) (hPTH). Cortical and cancellous bone formation was measured in tibia at the diaphysis proximal to the tibia-fibula synostosis and at the proximal metaphysis, respectively. Two weeks of hindlimb unloading resulted in a dramatic decrease in the rate of bone formation at both skeletal sites, which was prevented by PTH treatment at the cancellous site only. In contrast, PTH treatment increased cortical as well as cancellous bone formation in weight-bearing rats. Two-way ANOVA revealed that hPTH and HLU had independent and opposite effects on all histomorphometric indexes of bone formation [mineral apposition rate (MAR), double-labeled perimeter (dLPm), and bone formation rate (BFR)] at both skeletal sites. The bone anabolic effects of weight bearing and hPTH on dLPm and BFR at the cortical site were additive, as were the effects on MAR at the cancellous site. In contrast, weight bearing and hPTH resulted in synergistic increases in cortical bone MAR and cancellous bone dLPm and BFR. We conclude that weight bearing and PTH act cooperatively to increase bone formation by resulting in site-specific additive and synergistic increases in indexes of osteoblast number and activity, suggesting that weight-bearing exercise targeted to osteopenic skeletal sites may improve the efficacy of PTH therapy for osteoporosis. 相似文献

Recent data suggests that chronic renal failure and hyperparathyroidism are associated with sympathetic overactivity. Since peptide hormones are known to modulate norepinephrine (NE) release by activating prejunctional receptors, this study investigates whether parathyroid hormone fragment (1-34) (hPTH(1-34)) increases neuronal NE release in human heart and kidney. Using specific PTH-receptor agonists and antagonists, this study furthermore highlights functional differences between PTH1 and PTH2 receptors. Human atrial and renal tissues were incubated with [(3)H]-NE and superfused. Three electrical stimulations (5Hz, 1min) induced a stable [(3)H]-NE release which was taken as an index of endogenous NE release. RT-PCR with specific primers for PTH1- and PTH2-receptor was performed in heart and kidney. hPTH(1-34) (0.01-0.1μmol/L) and a stable analog of its second messenger cAMP (8-bromo-cAMP) increased [(3)H]-NE release in human atria. This facilitatory effect of PTH was also observed in human renal cortex. The PTH1-receptor antagonist (D-Trp(12), Tyr(34))-pTH-(7-34) (0.5μmol/L) abolished the effect of hPTH(1-34). This data was verified using isolated perfused mouse kidneys. Tuberoinfundibular peptide of 39 residues (TIP-39) (0.1nmol/L-0.1μmol/L) decreased [(3)H]-NE release in atria. PTH1- and PTH2-receptor expressions were demonstrated in human heart and kidney. Moreover, a splice variant of the PTH2-receptor was detected in human kidney. In conclusion, PTH is able to facilitate NE release in human atria and renal cortex by activation of PTH1-receptors. The highly increased PTH levels that can be observed in chronic renal failure might be one contributor for the elevated sympathetic nerve activity and the associated cardiovascular mortality in patients with end stage renal disease. 相似文献

The N-terminal fragment of PTH(1-34) is critical for PTH1 receptor activation. Various modifications of PTH(1-14) have been shown to result in a considerable increase in signaling potency [Shimizu et al. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 21836-21843]. Our structural investigations revealed an unusually stable helical structure of the signaling domain (1-14), where residues 6 (Gln) and 10 (Gln or Asn) were located on the same face of the alpha-helix. To test whether a stable N-terminal alpha-helix is required for productive interaction with PTH1 receptor, we designed two conformationally restricted PTH(1-14) analogues, each containing a lactam bridge at positions 6 and 10. Specifically, substitutions Gln(6)-->Glu(6) and Asn(10)-->Lys(10) were introduced into the most potent [Ala(1,3,12),Gln(10),Har(11),Trp(14)]PTH(1-14)NH2 agonist. Both the Glu(6)-Lys(10) and Lys(6)-Glu(10) lactam-bridged analogues were characterized to examine the importance of orientation of the lactam. According to biological studies [Shimizu et al. (2003) Biochemistry 42, 2282-2290], none of the 6/10 substituted analogues (linear or cyclic) remained as active as the parent peptide. However, relative to their corresponding linear peptides, lactam-bridged analogues either maintained potency or showed 6-fold improvement. High-resolution structures as determined by 1H NMR and NOE-restrained molecular dynamics simulations clearly illustrate the structural differences between the linear and cyclic PTH(1-14) fragments, supporting the hypothesis that an alpha-helix is the preferred bioactive conformation of the N-terminal fragment of PTH. In addition, our results demonstrate that the structural order of the very first residues (1-4) of the signaling domain plays a significant role in PTH action. 相似文献

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) exerts potent and diverse effects in bone and cartilage through activation of type 1 PTH receptors (PTH1R) capable of coupling to protein kinase A (PKA) and PKC. We have used macroarrays to identify zinc finger protein butyrate response factor-1 (BRF1) as a novel PTH regulated gene in clonal and normal osteoblasts of human and rodent origin. We further demonstrate that in human osteoblast-like OHS cells, biologically active hPTH(1-84) and hPTH(1-34) stimulate BRF1 mRNA expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner, while the amino-terminally truncated hPTH(3-84) which does not activate PTH1R has no effect. Moreover, using specific stimulators or inhibitors of PKA and PKC activity, the PTH-elicited BRF1 mRNA expression is mediated through the PKA signaling pathway. In mouse calvarial osteoblasts, BRF1 mRNA levels are upregulated by PTH(1-84) and reduced in response to bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2). Hence, our data showing that BRF1 is expressed in osteoblastic cells and regulated by PTH and BMP-2, suggest an important role for BRF1 in osteoblasts within the molecular network of PTH-dependent bone remodeling. 相似文献

We demonstrated that 125I-labeled human parathyroid hormone (1-34;8,18-Nle,34-Tyr)[[125I]hPTH(1-34)] bound specifically to hemopoietic blast cells supported by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Half-maximal inhibition of binding was achieved at concentrations of unlabeled hPTH(1-34) of about 5 x 10(-9)M. Insulin and hPTH(39-68) did not compete for PTH binding sites. Specific binding of hPTH(1-34) was detected in neither macrophages nor multinucleated cells (MNC's). Furthermore, treatment of hemopoietic blast cells with hPTH(1-34) stimulated MNC formation, and the range of concentrations (10(-10)-10(-8)M) over which hPTH(1-34) caused these effects was similar to that which inhibited the binding of [125I]hPTH(1-34). These findings suggest the presence of a PTH receptor on osteoclast precursors and the direct effect of PTH on them, resulting in osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. 相似文献

The stimulation of DNA synthesis in primary cell cultures of chicken chondrocytes by parathyroid hormone was studied by assaying [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA. Optimal assay conditions were determined by varying cell age, plating density, and incubation time. Under these conditions DNA synthesis was significantly stimulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH) and some of its fragments: cells treated with human (h)PTH(1-84), bovine (b)PTH(1-34) and [Nle8,18,Tyr34]bPTH(3-34)amide and hPTH(13-34) displayed 2.6-fold enhanced [3H]thymidine incorporation in a dose-dependent manner. The fragment hPTH(28-48) led to a similar stimulation, whereas [Tyr43]hPTH(43-68) and [Tyr52,Asp76]hPTH(52-84) had no effect. Using a series of synthetic hPTH peptides covering the central region of the hormone molecule (residues 25-47), we could delimitate further this putative mitogenic functional domain to a core region between amino acid residues 30 and 34. The effect of PTH on [3H]thymidine incorporation could not be mimicked by forskolin, indicating that the corresponding signal is not mediated by cAMP. It is, however, inhibited by EGTA and cannot be provoked in the absence of calcium ions in the medium. Therefore, the results presented indicate a hitherto unidentified functional domain of PTH in the central part of the molecule which exerts its mitogenic effect on chondrocytes in a cAMP-independent manner but seems to involve calcium ions for signal transduction. 相似文献

Human parathyroid hormone (hPTH 1-34) stimulates an anabolic response in human and animal skeletons; however, it is unclear if the effect is strain dependent. To determine if the anabolic response to hPTH (1-34) was dependent upon strain in rats we used 2 outbred strains (Sprague Dawley, Wistar), 2 inbred strains (Fischer 344, Wistar spontaneously hypertensive:SHR), and 2 mutant strains (Zucker obese, Zucker lean) of rats. Male rats, 5 weeks of age, from each strain were treated subcutaneously with 80 microg/kg body weight hPTH (1-34) or vehicle for 12 days. The response to PTH was similar in all strains whereby PTH exerted an anabolic effect on femoral bone mass and cancellous bone histology that was independent of strain differences. Histomorphometric indices of bone volume, mineralized surface and bone formation in lumbar vertebrae increased in all PTH-treated rats. Additionally, femur bone mineral content and bone mineral density measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), and ash weight increased in all PTH-treated rats. These increases occurred regardless of strain. In summary, PTH exerted comparable anabolic effects on bone mass, bone mineral density and bone formation in all rat models tested demonstrating that the skeletal responsiveness to PTH was not dependent upon strain. 相似文献

The N-terminal 1-34 fragment of parathyroid hormone (PTH) is fully active in vitro and in vivo and reproduces all biological responses characteristic of the native intact PTH. In order to develop safer and non-parenteral PTH-like bone anabolic agents, we have studied the effect of introducing conformationally constrained dipeptide mimetics into the N-terminal portion of PTH in an effort to generate miniaturized PTH-mimetics. To this end, we have synthesized and conformationally and biologically characterized PTH(1-11) analogues containing 3R-carboxy-6S-amino-7,5-bicyclic thiazolidinlactam (7,5-bTL), a rigidified dipeptide mimetic unit. The wild type sequence of PTH(1-11) is H-Ser-Val-Ser-Glu-Ile-Gln-Leu-Met-His-Asn-Leu-NH(2). The following pseudo-undecapeptides were prepared: [Ala(1), 7,5-bTL(3, 4), Nle(8), Arg(11)]hPTH(1-11)NH(2) (I); [Ala(1), 7,5-bTL(6, 7), Nle(8), Arg(11)]hPTH(1-11)NH(2) (II); [Ala(1), Nle(8), 7,5-bTL(9, 10), Arg(11)]hPTH(1-11)NH(2) (III). In aqueous solution containing 20% TFE, only analogue I exhibited the typical CD pattern of the alpha-helical conformation. NMR experiments and molecular dynamics calculations located the alpha-helical stretch in the sequence Ile(5)-His(9). The dipeptide mimetic unit 7,5-bTL induces a type III beta-turn, occupying the positions i - 1 and i of the turn. Analogue II exhibited an equilibrium between a type I beta-turn and an alpha-helix, and analogue III did not show any ordered structure. Biological tests revealed poor activity for all analogues (EC(50) > 0.1 mM). Apparently, the relative side-chain orientation of Val(2), Ile(5) and Met(8) can be critical for effective analogue-receptor interaction. Considering helicity as an essential property to obtain active PTH agonists, one must decorate the correctly positioned dipeptide mimetic azabicycloalkane scaffold with substitutions corresponding to the displaced amino acids. 相似文献

A monoclonal antibody, AC7, directed against the RGD-binding site of the GPIIIa subunit of the platelet fibrinogen receptor, interacts with activated platelet. The H3 region (H3, RQMIRGYFDV sequence) of the complementarity-determining region 3 heavy chain of AC7 inhibits platelet aggregation and fibrinogen binding to platelet. H3 contains the arginine, glycine and aspartate residues, but in an unusual order. The solution structure of the decapeptide has been studied by proton NMR. The NMR data suggested a helical equilibrium. To test whether the helical structure of H3 was biologically relevant, a conformationally constrained peptide with the RGD-like motif was designed. The sequence of a scorpion toxin (leiurotoxin I) has been modified in order to constrain the H3 sequence in a rigid helical conformation. The structure of leiurotoxin I consists of a beta-sheet and an alpha-helix, linked by three disulfide bridges. The structural feature of the chimeric peptide (H3-leiurotoxin) has been determined by standard two-dimensional NMR techniques. H3-Leiurotoxin structure closely resembles that of leiurotoxin I. 相似文献

Oxidation of PTH at methionine residues results in loss of biological activity. PTH may be oxidized in patients with renal disease. The aim of this study was to develop an assay considering oxidation of PTH. Oxidized hPTH was analyzed by high resolution nano-liquid chromatography coupled to ESI-FTT tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-ESI-FT-MS/MS) directly and after proteolytic cleavage. The oxidized hPTH(1-84) sample shows TIC-peaks at 18-20 min and several mass peaks due to mass shifts caused by oxidations. No significant signal for oxidized hPTH(1-84) species after removal of oxidized PTH molecules by a specific column with monoclonal antibodies (MAB) raised against the oxidized hPTH was detectable. By using this column in samples from 18 patients on dialysis we could demonstrate that measured PTH concentrations were substantially lower when considering oxidized forms of PTH. The relationship between PTH concentrations determined directly and those concentrations measured after removal of the oxidized PTH forms varies substantially. In some patients only 7% of traditionally measured PTH was free of oxidation, whereas in other patients 34% of the traditionally measured PTH was real intact PTH. In conclusion, a huge but not constant proportion of PTH molecules are oxidized in patients requiring dialysis. Since oxidized PTH is biologically inactive, the currently used methods to detect PTH in daily clinical practice may not adequately reflect PTH-related bone and cardiovascular abnormalities in patients on dialysis. 相似文献

We have investigated the actions of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) on the bones of parathyroidectomized (PTX) rats by histomorphometric analysis. Miniosmotic pumps filled with either human PTH (hPTH)(1–34), hPTHrP(1–34) or vehicle were subcutaneously implanted on the backs of the rats. The peptides were continuously infused for 6 days at a rate of 15 nmole/kg/day. PTH and PTHrP exhibited similar hypercalcemic and hypophosphatemic actions on these PTX rats. No significant differences were noted in bone weight or calcium and phosphorus contents of the ashed bone among the 3 groups. By quantitative histomorphometric analysis, hPTH(1–34) and hPTHrP(1–34) were found similarly to enhance both bone formation and resorption. Peritrabecular fibrosis was observed only in the PTH-infused animals. PTHrP thus mimics the actions of PTH, but is not as effective in promoting mesenchymal cell proliferation along the bone trabeculae. 相似文献

The first 4 residues of parathyroid hormone (PTH) are highly conserved in evolution and are important for biological activity. We randomly mutated codons 1-4 of human PTH (hPTH) with degenerate oligonucleotides and, after expression in COS cells, screened the mutants for receptor binding and cAMP-stimulating activity using ROS 17/2.8 cells. This survey identified Glu4 and Val2 as important determinants of receptor binding and activation, respectively. Positions 1 and 3 were more tolerant of substitutions indicating that these sites are less vital to hormone function. Activities of synthetic hPTH(1-34) analogs further demonstrated the importance of positions 2 and 4. The binding affinity of [Ala4,Tyr34] hPTH(1-34)NH2 was 100-fold reduced relative to [Tyr34]hPTH(1-34)NH2 (Kd values = 653 +/- 270 and 4 +/- 1 nM, respectively), and [Arg2, Tyr34]hPTH(1-34)NH2 was a weak partial agonist which bound well to the ROS cell receptor (Kd = 31 +/- 10 nM). The Arg2 analog was nearly as potent as PTH(3-34) as an in vitro PTH antagonist in osteoblast derived cells. However, unlike PTH(3-34), [Arg2]PTH was a full agonist in opossum kidney (OK) cells. These observations suggest that the activation domains of the OK and ROS cell PTH receptors are different. Thus, amino-terminal PTH analogs may be useful as probes for distinguishing properties of PTH receptors. 相似文献

In order to determine the mechanism by which parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulates plasminogen activator (PA) activity in rat osteoblasts, we investigated the effect of human PTH(1-34) [hPTH(1-34)] on the synthesis of mRNAs for tissue-type PA (tPA), urokinase-type PA (uPA), and PA inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and on release of PA activity and PAI-1 protein in both normal rat calvarial osteoblasts and UMR 106-01 osteogenic sarcoma cells. hPTH(1-34) (0.25-25 nM) decreased PAI-1 mRNA and protein, and increased PA activity in both cell types in a dose-dependent manner with ED50 of about 1 nM for both responses. Forskolin and isobutylmethylxanthine also stimulated PA activity and decreased PAI-1 protein and mRNA in both cell types. hPTH(1-34) did not show any consistent effect on tPA and uPA mRNA in calvarial osteoblasts, but a modest (two-fold) increase of both mRNAs was observed in UMR 106-01 cells treated with 25 nM hPTH(1-34). However, when protein synthesis was inhibited with 100 microM cycloheximide, the increase of tPA and uPA mRNA by hPTH(1-34) was enhanced in UMR 106-01 cells and became evident in calvarial osteoblasts. Fibrin autography also revealed that hPTH(1-34) increases tPA and uPA activity, especially after cycloheximide treatment in UMR 106-01 cells. These results strongly suggest that PTH increases PA activity predominantly by decreasing PAI-1 protein production through a cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent mechanism in rat osteoblasts. The reduction of PAI-1 protein by PTH results in enhanced action of both tPA and uPA, and would contribute to the specific roles of these PAs in bone. 相似文献
