One G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) can activate more than one G protein, but the physiologic importance of such activation has not been demonstrated in vivo. We have generated mice expressing exclusively a mutant form of the PTH/PTHrP receptor (DSEL) that activates adenylyl cyclase normally but not phospholipase C (PLC). DSEL mutant mice exhibit abnormalities in embryonic endochondral bone development, including delayed ossification and increased chondrocyte proliferation. Analysis of the differentiation of embryonic metatarsals in vitro shows that PTH(1-34) and forskolin inhibit, whereas active phorbol ester stimulates, hypertrophic differentiation. Thus, PLC signaling via the PTH/PTHrP receptor normally slows the proliferation and hastens the differentiation of chondrocytes, actions that oppose the dominant effects of PTH/PTHrP receptors and that involve cAMP-dependent signaling pathways.

The cranial mesenchyme, originating from both neural crest and mesoderm, imparts remarkable regional specificity and complexity to postnatal calvarial tissue. While the distinct embryonic origins of the superior and dura periosteum of the cranial parietal bone have been described, the extent of their respective contributions to bone and vessel formation during adult bone defect repair remains superficially explored. Utilizing transgenic mouse models in conjunction with high-resolution multiphoton laser scanning microscopy (MPLSM), we have separately evaluated bone and vessel formation in the superior and dura periosteum before and after injury, as well as following intermittent treatment of recombinant peptide of human parathyroid hormone (rhPTH), Teriparatide.

Genetic abnormalities of the parathyroid hormone 1 receptor (PTH1R) lead to profound craniomaxillofacial bone and dentition defects on account of inappropriate tissue metabolism and cellular differentiation. The coordinated activity of differentiation and viability in bone cells is indispensable for bone metabolism. Recent research demonstrates mesenchymal progenitors are responsive to PTH1R signaling for osteogenic differentiation, whereas the effect of PTH1R on cellular survival remains incompletely understood.

Introduction: Receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs) are known to modulate the pharmacology and function of several G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), including the parathyroid hormone 1 receptor (PTH1R). However, the precise effects of different RAMPs on PTH1R signalling and trafficking remain poorly understood. This study investigated the impact of RAMP2 and RAMP3 on PTH1R function using a range of PTH and PTH-related protein (PTHrP)-derived ligands.

Primary failure of tooth eruption (PFE) is an autosomal dominant disease with penetrance defect. While the clinical phenotype is relatively well-defined since the 70 s of the last centuries, much more need to be clarified about the genetic causes of this condition. In our previous paper we established clinical criteria to better identify PFE patients carrying PTH1R gene variants.
