The cellular localization of DARPP-32, a dopamine- and cyclic AMP-regulated phosphoprotein of 32 kD, enriched in dopamine-innervated brain regions, was investigated in the human parathyroid gland using indirect immunofluorescence histochemistry. Monoclonal antibodies were used to demonstrate DARPP-32-like immunoreactivity (LI) in chief cells of the normal human parathyroid gland and in cells of human parathyroid adenoma. Direct double-labelling revealed coexistence of DARPP-32-LI with parathyroid hormone (PTH)-LI. It has previously been demonstrated that dopamine D1-receptors are present in the parathyroid gland and that dopamine and D1-agonists stimulate the release of PTH. The present results suggest that DARPP-32 may play a role in the cellular mechanisms leading to dopamine-induced PTH secretion.

D010280 Parathyroid Glands Two pairs of small oval-shaped glands located in the front and the base of the NECK and adjacent to the two lobes of THYROID GLAND. They secrete PARATHYROID HORMONE that regulates the balance of CALCIUM; PHOSPHORUS; and MAGNESIUM in the body. Gland, Parathyroid,Glands, Parathyroid,Parathyroid Gland
D010281 Parathyroid Hormone A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.

D004298 Dopamine One of the catecholamine NEUROTRANSMITTERS in the brain. It is derived from TYROSINE and is the precursor to NOREPINEPHRINE and EPINEPHRINE. Dopamine is a major transmitter in the extrapyramidal system of the brain, and important in regulating movement. A family of receptors (RECEPTORS, DOPAMINE) mediate its action.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
