Overexpression of Parathyroid Hormone-related Protein in the Pancreatic Islets of Transgenic Mice Causes Islet Hyperplasia, Hyperinsulinemia, and Hypoglycemia

(Received for publication, October 5, 1995)

Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is produced by the pancreatic islet. It also has receptors on islet cells, suggesting that it may serve a paracrine or autocrine role within the islet. We have developed transgenic mice, which overexpress PTHrP in the islet through the use of the rat insulin II promoter (RIP). Glucose homeostasis in these mice is markedly abnormal; RIP-PTHrP mice are hypoglycemic in the post-prandial and fasting states and display inappropriate hyperinsulinemia. At the end of a 24-hour fast, blood glucose values are 49 mg/dl in RIP-PTHrP mice, as compared to 77 mg/dl in normal littermates; insulin concentrations at this time are 6.3 and 3.9 ng/ml, respectively. Islet perifusion studies failed to demonstrate abnormalities in insulin secretion. In contrast, quantitative islet histomorphometry demonstrates that the total islet number and total islet mass are 2-fold higher in RIP-PTHrP mice than in their normal littermates.

PTHrP very likely plays a normal physiologic role within the pancreatic islet. This role is most likely paracrine or autocrine. PTHrP appears to regulate insulin secretion either directly or indirectly, through developmental or growth effects on islet mass. PTHrP may have a role as an agent that enhances islet mass and/or enhances insulin secretion.
