A 16K PTH-like protein with a unique primary structure has recently been isolated from several human tumors associated with the syndrome of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. Certain spontaneous and transplantable animal tumors also cause this syndrome. The responsible mediator in these animal tumors is not known. We report the isolation of 16K proteins from the rat H500 Leydig cell tumor and the canine apocrine cell adenocarcinoma of the anal sac. Both proteins are potent activators of PTH receptor-coupled adenylate cyclase in bone cells. Both proteins demonstrate similarities in amino acid composition to one another and to the human PTH-like protein. Limited amino-terminal sequence information from the canine protein demonstrates homology with the human PTH-like protein. Antibodies raised to a synthetic human PTH-(1-36)-like peptide cross-react with both the rat and canine proteins in an immunoradiometric assay. These data demonstrate that by physical and immunological criteria PTH-like peptides are present in these animal tumors that appear to be closely related to the human PTH-like peptide. These data further suggest that this protein is not unique to humans, but has an evolutionary origin which extends back at least 65-80 million yr.
