title: Synthetic human parathyroid hormone-related protein and rat renal electrolyte transport.
abstract: The effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH)-like peptide PTH-related protein (PTHrP)(1-34) from a human cancer cell line on renal electrolyte transport was compared with human PTH(1-34) in a thyroparathyroidectomized anesthetized rat model. Comparing submaximal, maximal and supramaximal phosphaturic concentrations of hPTH with the same PTHrP concentrations, no significant difference could be demonstrated in the urinary excretion of calcium, magnesium, inorganic phosphate or cAMP. Even the small (30.3%) and brief (45 min) reduction in fractional water excretion with the maximal (1 nM/kg/h) hPTH concentration was approximated by PTHrP. It is concluded that the structural homology between hPTH and PTHrP allows a similar action on renal electrolyte transport, including the partial agonist effect of higher concentrations of PTH on vasopressin-induced water transport.
