Phosphate wasting in oncogenic osteomalacia: phex is normal and the tumor-derived factor has unique properties
Oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM) is characterized by renal phosphate wasting and abnormal metabolism of vitamin D, somewhat similar to the phenotype of X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (HYP). DNA from OOM tumor cells was analyzed for mutations in the PHEX gene, which is mutated in HYP. Screening for mu...

Summary: | Oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM) is characterized by renal phosphate wasting and abnormal metabolism of vitamin D, somewhat similar to the phenotype of X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (HYP). DNA from OOM tumor cells was analyzed for mutations in the
PHEX gene, which is mutated in HYP. Screening for mutations by single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis and subsequent sequencing of all the exons revealed no mutations. Conditioned media from long-term cultures of OOM tumor cells were used to further characterize the physical properties of the phosphate-regulating factor and its mechanism of action. Inhibition of OK 3B2 cell renal phosphate transport by conditioned media was dose-dependent and maximal after 20 h. This time course differed from that of parathyroid hormone (PTH). The bioactivity was stable to mild acid and alkali treatment and freeze drying and was retained in the aqueous phase following organic solvent extraction. The activity was not suppressed by heat or by treatment with trypsin but was suppressed by the protease papain and had an apparent molecular weight of |
