abstract：:Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is produced by various normal and neoplastic tissues. Even if the physiological function(s) of PTHrP is unclear, evidence suggests that the protein may participate in the local regulation of smooth muscle contractility. We show here that PTHrP is produced in endothelial cell...
