Novel bioactive parathyroid hormone and related peptides in teleost fish

Abstract: We report the identification, gene expression and biological activity of two parathyroid hormones (PTH; PTHA and PTHB), two PTH-related peptides (PTHrP; PTHrPA and PTHrPB) and a PTH-like ligand (PTH-L) with hybrid characteristics in puffer fishes (Takifugu rubripes and Tetraodon fluviatilis). Experimental data are consistent with PTH-L and PTHrPA having calciotropic activities equivalent, respectively, to tetrapod PTH and PTHrP. We hypothesise on the basis of phylogenetic and functional analysis that PTH-L cou… Show more

“…Rotllant et al [46] found that the parathyroid hormone-related protein increased osteoclastic activity in seawater fish scales via cAMP/AC, and Canario et al [47] found that PTH1 or PTH2 failed to activate the cAMP/AC pathway or stimulate calcium transport in seawater fish scales. Notwithstanding these differences, it is known that the exchange of calcium in the scales of freshwater teleosts is faster than that in marine teleosts because freshwater teleosts live in a low-calcium environment.…”

“…Indeed, only very recently the genes for parathyroid hormone (PTH), which is the dom inant hypercalcemic factor for terrestrial vertebrates, were found in fish (Danks et al, 1993). However, earlier, fish were shown to express genes for parathyroid hor mone related protein (PTHrP; Power et al, 2000;Flana gan et al, 2000;Canario et al, 2006). PTHrP behaves in fish as a hypercalcemic hormone and appears key in fish calcium physiology (Ingleton et al, 2002;Trivett et al, 2001).…”

“…In contrast, fugu Pth-L does not contain this cleavage site, and the intron is present before an SRR motif. (30) More important, fugu Pth-L is capable of stimulating adenylate cyclase in sea bream scales, (30) whereas the elephant shark (29) suggesting that Pth2 may have a role in neurotransmission, in the neuroendocrine system, or as a neuromodulator. The presence of elephant shark Pth2 mRNA and protein in the spleen implies that it might have a role in the hemopoietic and/or immune systems.…”
