Abstract excerpt

The parathyroid hormone type 1 receptor (PTHR1) mediates the actions of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHRP). Interacting with this receptor, PTHRP contributes to skeletal development through the regulation of chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation. Recently, a tetranucleotide repeat-(AAAG)( n )-in the P3 promoter of the PTHR1 gene has been shown to have functional...
