Monoclonal antibody to parathyroid hormone-related protein induces differentiation and apoptosis of chondrosarcoma cells
Abstract
We investigated the effects of treatment with anti-parathyroid hormone-related protein (1-34) monoclonal murine antibody (anti-PTHrP MoAb) on apoptosis and the differentiation of chondrosarcoma HTB-94 cells. Treatment with anti-PTHrP MoAb accelerated apoptosis of HTB-94 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and anti-PTHrP MoAb also promoted the chondrogenic differentiation of HTB-94 cells. The induction of apoptosis by anti-PTHrP MoAb via imbalance of Bcl-2/Bax ratio and activation of caspase-3 may provide a mechanistic explanation for its potential antitumor effects. Our results suggest the possibility that anti-PTHrP MoAb may be beneficial as a new treatment for chondrosarcoma.
