Carboxyl (C)-terminal fragments of parathyroid hormone (PTH) oppose the calcemic, phosphaturic, and bone-resorbing effects of active hormone. To study the action of these fragments on 1,25(OH)(2)D (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D) synthesis, we infused parathyroidectomized rats with human or rat active 1-34 or 1-84 PTH at doses selected to produce similar calcemic responses. Human active PTH influenced neither phosphate nor 1,25(OH)(2)D concentrations. However, active 1-34 rat PTH decreased phosphate to the same level as vehicle-treated rats and increased 1,25(OH)(2)D to very high levels, whereas active 1-84 PTH decreased phosphate but maintained 1,25(OH)(2)D. As the latter effect could have been due to C-terminal fragment generation during its metabolic breakdown, we infused a mixture of rat C-terminal fragments alone or with rat 1-34. The C-terminal fragments decreased 1,25(OH)(2)D and prevented hypocalcemic-induced 1,25(OH)(2)D synthesis. When infused with active rat 1-34, they lowered the 1,25(OH)(2)D level to that seen with intact rat 1-84. The C-terminal fragments did not influence either basal or rat 1-34- or 1-84-induced CYP27B1 mRNA levels, suggesting that their inhibitory effects on 1,25(OH)(2)D synthesis appears to be post-transcriptional.
