摘要: Tumors associated with humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (HHM) contain parathyroid hormone-like adenylate cyclase-stimulating proteins (hACSPs). We previously purified a 17,000 MW hACSP from an HHM-associated breast carcinoma. This report describes the characterization hACSPs three additional tumors: two typical tumors (squamous carcinomas) and third unusual tumor type (pheochromocytoma). Each was extracted in acid-urea/ethanol-sodium chloride, activity (ACSA) examined following reverse-phase size-exclusion HPLC isoelectric focusing. contained high molecular weight form ACSA which co-eluted carcinoma each separation procedures. also lower form(s) (6,000-9,000 weight). Both forms were inhibited by Nle8,18Tyr34bPTH(3-34) amide. The not changed to reducing agent. Some hACSP, one another 6,000-9,000, appears be amino-terminal cleavage product larger protein.
