The circulating hormonal form of human parathyroid hormone (hPTH-1-37) has been assessed in vitro as well as in vivo in the ovariectomized rat, a model for postmenopausal osteoporosis. In vitro, hPTH-1-37 induces a dose-dependent cAMP formation and increases vitality as well as alkaline phosphatase activity in UMR106 osteosarcoma cells. Differentiation and proliferation of osteoclasts in rat bone marrow-derived stem cell preparations are decreased. Daily hPTH-1-37 s.c. administration in ovariectomized rats for 60 days results in augmented formation of new bone, in amplified femural bone density, and in thickening of the calvaria.

Advances in the treatment of clinical disorders of mineral in homeostatis and metabolic bone disease with intact parathyroid hormone 1-84 or one of the biologically active N-terminal fragments require a precise and sensitive measurement in serum. Therefore, a two-site immunoenzymometric assay for the quantitative determination of bioactive hPTH-1-37 (human parathyroid hormone) at picomolar concentrations was developed. Monoclonal antibodies (mAB) against hPTH-1-37 were raised by hybridoma cells in serum-free cell culture. Furthermore, sequence-specific polyclonal antibodies were obtained by immunisation of rabbits using multiple antigenic peptides (MAP) representing the conspicuous regions of the primary structure of hPTH-1-37. The polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies were characterised by epitope mapping. The combination of a monoclonal antibody (13C63/5) recognising hPTH fragment 16-24 with a polyclonal antibody (k2) showing a predominant binding sequence at hPTH-1-5 led to a sandwich assay specific for N-terminally intact and therefore biologically active hPTH. The validated assay ranging from 4 to 1000 pmol/l was applied to pharmacokinetic studies of hPTH-1-37. After s.c. administration of 30 mu g/kg in 5 beagles, the maximum serum concentrations of hPTH-1-37 ranging at 2139 +/- 857 pmol/l were observed 45 min after the injection. Clearance of the peptide calculated from the exponential disappearance curve was 32.0 +/- 9.1 ml/min/kg with a mean t1/2 of 37 +/- 10 min.
