PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) is a critical hormone in the regulation of Ca++ homeostasis.
The human PTH cDNA encodes 115 amino acids (aa) including a 25 aa signal sequence, a 6 aa propeptide, and an 84 aa mature hormone.
Mature human PTH shares 70%, 73%, 88%, 87%, 86%, 86% and 85% aa identity with mouse, rat, canine, equine, bovine, porcine and feline PTH, respectively.
Multiple N‑terminal peptides and C-terminal peptides derived from PTH occur naturally in the circulation.
PTH aa 32-66, called PTH (1-34) since it represents the first 34 aa of the mature hormone, reproduces all the activity of the full length mature hormone and has been used therapeutically for treatment of osteoporosis.
C-terminal peptides mainly oppose the activities of PTH (1-34) and are increased in renal failure.
PTH expression is mainly restricted to the parathyroid gland, with minor amounts in the thymus.
PTH secretion is enhanced by low Ca++ concentrations and inhibited by FGF-23.
In normal human plasma, PTH correlates negatively with active Vitamin D and positively with ionized calcium.
Human and other mammalian PTH will bind and stimulate human or rat PTH1R, activating adenylate cyclase and increasing cAMP production.
PTH promotes secretion of TRANCE/RANKL and periostin through PTH1R binding on osteoblasts and/or bone marrow stromal cells.
TRANCE/RANKL induces differentiation of osteoclasts, which in turn promote release of Ca++ from bone.
PTH1R on osteocytes, however, allows PTH to promote bone formation and IGF-1 production.
In renal epithelium, PTH promotes conversion of Vitamin D to its active form, lowers Ca++ excretion and increases phosphate excretion.
PTH also increases hematopoietic stem cell proliferation and mobilization and induces arterial vasodilation by regulating Ca++ influx in PTH1R-expressing arterial smooth muscle.
