Project description:Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrine disorder frequently affecting postmenopausal women. In this study we have investigated expression of the prolactin receptor (PRLr) in a panel of 37 sporadic parathyroid tumours, as well as functionality in vitro in cultured parathyroid tumour cells. High levels of the prolactin receptor gene (PRLR) transcripts were demonstrated in parathyroid tissues as compared to other reference tissues and breast cancer cells. PRLr products of 60/70 kDa were highly expressed in all parathyroid tumours. In addition varying levels of the 80 kDa PRLr isoform, with known proliferative activity, were demonstrated. In parathyroid tumours PRLr immunoreactivity was observed in cytoplasm in all cases and in addition in the plasma membrane (n = 12) or enlarged lysosomes (n = 4). In normal parathyroid rim PRLr was expressed in cytoplasm and granulae. In in vitro studies of short-term cultured human parathyroid tumour cells prolactin stimulation was associated with transcriptional changes in JAK/STAT, RIG-I like receptor and type II interferon signaling pathways as documented by gene expression profiling. Moreover, PRLR gene expression in parathyroid tumors was significantly inversely correlated with plasma total Ca2+ levels. In conclusion, the prolactin receptor was found highly abundant in human parathyroid gland, parathyroid tumours, correlated with patient Ca2+ levels and functionally responsive to physiological levels of prolactin. These findings suggest a role for the prolactin receptor in human parathyroid adenomas. Expression profiling was done in parathyroid adenomas subjected to prolactin treatment in culture. In addition, corresponding paraffin sections were obtained for verification of PRLr expression by immunohistochemistry. 200 mg/L prolactin (recombinant humanM-BM- prolactin, Cat. No. JM-4687-50, MBL Woburn, MA) was added to 1M-CM-^W 10^6 attached parathyroid tumour cells. Cells were harvested using RNAlater (QIAGEN) and homogenized with QIAshredder for RNA extraction after 3 h and 24 h in culture, respectively. Negative controls were collected in parallel with each case at the same time points. RNA was extracted using QIA Cube, and quality assessed with Bioanalyser and Nanodrop. Expression array profiling and data analysis was done at the KI core facility Bioinformatics and Expression Analysis (BEA, Novum, Huddinge) using the Affymetrix platform and the TITAN ST 1.1 array. A total of 16 samples were analysed including 4 parathyroid adenomas cultured for 3 h or 24 h in the presence of prolactin plus control samples cultured in parallel without prolactin.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of genes expressed in normal parathyroid glands (Normal) and adenomatous parathyroid glands from patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Stratagen Human Refernece RNA, pooled from 10 human cell lines, was used to identify genes, which are specifically expressed or suppressed in parathyroid tissue. Comparison between normal and tumor parathyroids shows genes that might be involved in hyperproliferation and PTH hypersecretion in tumors.

Project description:The mechanisms of chronic kidney disease-associated secondary hyperparathyroidism are partially understood. In this project we aimed to gain new information and propose research hypotheses by proteome and phosphoproteome profiling of normal and hyperplastic rat parathyroid glands. Glands were microdissected from rats on normal control diet or CKD-inducing high adenine diet enriched with phosphorus to produce secondary hyperparathyroidism. Protein extracts were pooled from 12 glands (6 rats) for phosphoproteome profiling (3 normal and 3 CKD pools).

Project description:The pathogenesis of primary hyperparathyroidism (I-HPT) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (II-PTH) remains to be elucidated. To characterize their pathophysiology, we investigated the effects of calcium and phosphate on cell proliferation and PTH release in an organ culture of parathyroid tissues. Dissected parathyroid tissues obtained from patients with I-HPT (adenoma) or II-PTH (nodular hyperplasia) were precultured on a collagen-coated membrane for 1-4 week. After exchanging the medium for one containing various concentrations of phosphate, PTH release and [3H]thymidine incorporation were studied. In contrast to dispersed parathyroid cells cultured in a monolayer, calcium decreased PTH release in a concentration-dependent manner in parathyroid tissues. Furthermore, when parathyroid tissues obtained from II-PTH were precultured for 1-4 weeks, PTH release and parathyroid cell proliferation were significantly increased in high-phosphate medium. These phosphate effects were also observed to a lesser extent in parathyroid tissues obtained from I-HPT, but there was no significant difference between I-HPT and II-HPT. Microarray analyses revealed that mRNA levels of PTH, CaSR, and VDR were well preserved, and several growth factors (e.g. TGF-beta1-induced protein) were abundantly expressed in II-PTH. Using organ cultures of hyperparathyroid tissues, in which PTH release and CaSR are well preserved for a prolonged period, we have demonstrated that phosphate stimulates parathyroid cell proliferation not only in II-PTH but also in I-HPT. Although the mechanism responsible for phosphate-induced cell proliferation remains to be elucidated, our in vitro findings suggest that both parathyroid tissues preserve to some extent a physiological response system to hyperphosphatemia as observed in normal parathyroid cells. These data will be published in Journal of Bone & Mineral Metabolism. Keywords: Organ culture experiments, dultured in low vs.high phosphate medium

Project description:We investigate whether Cinacalcet treatment timed to the expression of its drug target; the Calcium-Sensing Receptor, could improve efficacy of treatment in secondary hyperparathyroidism. We found that proliferation rate of parathyroid glands of uremic rats was markedly reduced when Cinacalcet was administered in the early inactive phase compared to conventional timing early in the active phase. We use RNAseq of parathyroid tissue to investigate the possible mechanism behind this enhanced anti-proliferative effect.

Project description:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an incurable right heart failure disease. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted from the parathyroid gland and plays a crucial role in calcium homeostasis. PTH also acts on the cardiovascular system and affects cardiovascular prognosis. We assessed whether the regulation of PTH affected PH in a hypoxia (Hx)-induced PH mouse model. PTH treatment exacerbated right ventricular hypertrophy and right ventricular systolic pressure in Hx mice. Our data showed how is PTH effected for PH model murine lung.
