Reduced p21, p27 and vitamin D receptor in the nodular hyperplasia in patients with advanced secondary hyperparathyroidism1

Abstract: The reduced expression of p21 and p27, in a VDR-dependent manner, is a major pathogenic factor for a nodular parathyroid gland growth.

“…Figure 5 confirms the reduced VDR levels reported for nodular hyperplasia, 7 which was associated with enhanced TGF-␣ expression and EGFR activation, as measured by increased P-ERK1/2 content; however, high cross-reactivity of the antibody directed to the domain of the C/EBP␤ molecule common for LAP and LIP impedes accurate immunohistochemical analysis of LIP expression in diffuse and nodular areas. Therefore, Western blot analysis was conducted in wholecell extracts from hyperplastic human glands, which accurately measures LAP and LIP levels but fails to discriminate diffuse from nodular areas.…”

“…[1][2][3][4] The efficacy of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (calcitriol, 1,25D), the hormonal form of vitamin D, to suppress PTH gene expression and parathyroid cell growth has rendered calcitriol or its less calcemic analogs the treatment of choice for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SH) 5 ; however, as kidney disease progresses, parathyroid vitamin D receptor (VDR) levels decrease in parallel with the severity of parathyroid hyperplasia, 6,7 rendering nodular hyperplasia, the most aggressive form of SH, 6 unresponsive to calcitriol (analog) therapy. 7 The lack of appropriate experimental models has impeded earlier characterization of the pathogenesis of the association between the severity of parathyroid hyperplasia and the re-duction of VDR. Primary cultures of parathyroid cells fail to mimic the suppression of growth by either calcitriol or high calcium (Ca) in vivo, as a result of a rapid loss of VDR 8 and Ca-sensing receptor.…”

“…The balance between the cellular compartments (nuclear/cytoplasmic) is probably relevant to the regulatory actions of vitamin D. More pronounced cytoplasmic VDR staining could indicate an 'escape' of parathyroid adenoma cells from homeostatic surveillance and growth control, especially if the regulatory mechanisms depended on ligand-activated receptor activity (29). Such alterations in cytoplasmic and nuclear VDR staining have also been reported in other neoplasms (30,31,32).…”

“…After treatment washout at the end of 52 weeks, PTH increased to levels higher than baseline in both arms, suggesting that underlying parathyroid disease severity may have worsened over time. Such a progression might be associated with a decrease in expression of the parathyroid calciumsensing and vitamin D receptors (21,22), potentially resulting in treatment resistance; if so, the relatively long treatment duration compared with other trials (1,13) may have made it less likely that either agent could demonstrate effectiveness.…”
