Abstract:
:Hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and resistance to the action of PTH are well characterized features in the setting of advanced chronic renal failure (CRF). Although the underlying mechanisms are ill-understood, clinical and experimental evidence points to both PTH receptor down-regulation and post-receptor abnormalities in their pathogenesis. In the present study we have examined the effect of advanced CRF in rats on the renal expression of PTH/PTHrP receptor (PTH-R). CRF was created by a standard two-step operation (5/6 nephrectomy). Four weeks thereafter, 19 uremic rats were compared with 23 sham-operated rats. Uremic rats had higher mean (+/- SD) plasma creatinine levels than control rats, 164 +/- 107 microM versus 43 +/- 5 microM, respectively. They also had higher plasma phosphorus and iPTH levels, 4.70 +/- 1.71 mM versus 2.59 +/- 0.37 mM and 561 +/- 336 versus 27 +/- 18 pg/ml, respectively. Mean plasma total calcium and blood ionized calcium were significantly lower in uremic than in control rats, 2.13 +/- 0.06 mM versus 2.61 +/- 0.10 mM and 1.07 +/- 0.11 versus 1.31 +/- 0.06 mM, respectively. Mean plasma calcitriol concentration was also significantly lower in uremic than in control rats, 39.8 +/- 14.6 and 80.4 +/- 15.2 pg/ml, respectively. Nine out of the 19 rats were examined for renal PTH-R gene expression.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
