title: Parathyroid hormone regulation of the human bone sialoprotein gene transcription is mediated through two cAMP response elements.
abstract: Parathyroid hormone (PTH) regulates serum calcium and inorganic phosphate levels through its actions on kidney and bone. Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is an early marker of osteoblast differentiation and bone metabolism. We here report that two cAMP response elements (CRE) in the human BSP gene promoter are target of PTH. In human osteoblast-like Saos2 cells, PTH (human 1-34 PTH, 10 nM) increased BSP mRNA and protein levels at 3 h. From transient transfection assays, 2- to 2.5-fold increase in transcription by PTH was observed at 3 and 6 h in -184, -211, -428, -868, and -927 luciferase constructs that included the human BSP gene promoter. Effect of PTH was abrogated by 2 bp mutations in either the CRE1 (-79 to -72) or CRE2 (-674 to -667). Luciferase activities induced by PTH were blocked by protein kinase A inhibitor H89 and tyrosine kinase inhibitor herbimycin A. Gel shift analyses showed that PTH increased binding of nuclear proteins to the CRE1 and CRE2 elements. The CRE1-protein and CRE2-protein complexes were disrupted by CRE binding protein 1 (CREB1) antibodies and supershifted by phospho-CREB1 antibody. ChIP assays detected binding of CREB1 and phospho-CREB1 to a chromatin fragment containing CRE1 and CRE2, and increased binding of phospho-CREB1 to the both sites. These studies demonstrate that PTH stimulates human BSP gene transcription by targeting the two CREs in the promoter of the human BSP gene.
