PTHrP was up-regulated by the P2 and P3 promoters. Specific PTHrP promoter-initiated transcripts were measured by real-time quantitative RT-PCR using the SYBR green method. The data was normalized to human β2M gene expression. Specific PTHrP-promoter initiated transcripts are shown for 0, 3, 7 and 13 weeks post co-culture in the presence of IL-2 (A), in the absence of IL-2 (B) and for MT-2 cells (C). The data showed that PTHrP was up-regulated in PBMCs following HTLV-1 infection by the activation of both the P2 and P3 promoters.
