ABSTRACT
Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) plays essential roles in placental calcium (Ca) transport, and it has been speculated that PTHrP in the placenta is regulated by calcium-sensing receptors (CaSR). This study clarified the relationship between PTHrP in the placenta of dairy cows and minerals in the fetal blood. Blood samples were obtained from 21 Holstein cows and 17 neonatal calves as well as 12 umbilical veins and arteries during cesarean section. After fetus removal, 13 caruncles and cotyledons were obtained. Concentrations of plasma PTHrP and serum minerals were measured. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) analyzed the gene expression of PTHrP and CaSR in the placenta. As a result, serum Ca and inorganic phosphorus concentrations in the neonate, umbilical vein, and artery were significantly higher than in the mother. Additionally, plasma PTHrP was detected in the bovine neonatal jugular vein, umbilical artery, and vein. PTHrP gene expression was significantly higher in the caruncles than in cotyledons; however, CaSR gene expression was higher in the cotyledons than in caruncles. These findings suggest that the PTHrP obtained from the placenta influences Ca homeostasis in the bovine fetus.
