Parathyroid hormone related protein (PTHrP) has been identified as the major hormone responsible for the syndrome of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (HHM). Recent studies have shown that a large number of prostate tumors demonstrate the presence of PTHrP despite the fact that prostate cancer is rarely associated with the HHM syndrome. Other studies have indicated that PTHrP behaves as an early response gene, which stimulates ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) enzyme activity, an enzyme, involved in the biosynthesis of polyamines. It is therefore possible that PTHrP regulates prostate tumor cell proliferation via ODC gene expression.
