High Phosphorus Diet Changes Phosphorus Metabolism Regardless of PTH Action in Rats

抄録

  In this study, we ascertained whether the parathyroid hormone (PTH) dominantly regulated the effects of high phosphorus (P) intakes on urinary excretion of P and bone metabolism in rats. To maintain serum PTH level equally, parathyroidectomy (PTX) and sham-operated rats were constantly exposed to rPTH(1–34) and fed both control (0.3% P) and high P (1.2% P) diet for 7 days, respectively. Urinary excretions of P and C-terminal telopeptides of type I collagen were significantly increased in both PTX and sham rats by the high P diet. These results suggest that high P diet increased urinary P excretion while promoting bone resorption regardless of PTH-dependent regulation.
