Abstract
To examine the PTH/PTHrP receptor in the mammary gland, molecular cloning of bovine PTH/PTHrP receptor and measurement of its mRNA expression were carried out in cows during the periparturient period. The PTH/PTHrP receptor gene was partially cloned, and expression of bovine PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA was detected in various tissues of the cow. In the mammary gland, PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA expression was constantly low during the periparturient period, whereas PTHrP mRNA expression dramatically increased after parturition. This suggested that expression of PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA in the mammary gland is not affected by lactation in cows.
