Interleukin-4 blocks parathyroid hormone-related protein-induced hypercalcemia in vivo.

Abstract

Interleukin (IL)-4 inhibits bone resorption. In the present study, the effect of IL-4 on hypercalcemia in nude mice under two experimental conditions was assessed. IL-4 inhibited plasma calcium elevation induced by parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) infusion. In hypercalcemic nude mice bearing PTHrP-producing tumors, IL-4 lowered plasma calcium levels to almost the normal range. These results indicate that IL-4 blocks PTHrP-induced hypercalcemia in vivo.
