Abstract excerpt
The tuberoinfundibular peptide TIP39 [TIP-(1-39)], which exhibits only limited amino acid sequence homology with PTH and PTH-related peptide (PTHrP), stimulates cAMP accumulation in cells expressing the PTH2 receptor (PTH2R), but it is inactive at the PTH/PTHrP receptor (PTH1R). However, when using either (125)I-labeled rat [Nle(8,21),Tyr(34)]PTH-(1-34)amide (rPTH) or (125)I-labeled human...
