Duodenal calcium-binding protein (CaBP) and phosphorus deprivation in growing rats. 1976

M Thomasset, and P Cuisinier-Gleizes, and H Mathieu

The present study has been undertaken to elicit the effects of a low-phosphorous diet on intestinal calcium absorption. Measurements of duodenal calcium-binding protein (CaBP), mucosal calcium, fractional calcium absorption and duodenal calcium transport capacity has been performed in growing rats fed for three weeks a low-phosphorous diet adequate in vitamin-D3. In animals on low-phosphorous diet, the mucosal concentration of CaBP measured by a quantitative competitive binding assay has increased in parallel with the mucosal calcium concentration, the fractional absorption and the calcium transport capacity. Analytical gel electrophoresis of calcium-binding protein in animals fed low-phosphorous diet has shown the presence of a protein band which would involve more than the effect of the stimulated biosynthesis of 1alpha,25-DHCC.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007408	Intestinal Absorption	Uptake of substances through the lining of the INTESTINES.	Absorption, Intestinal
D007413	Intestinal Mucosa	Lining of the INTESTINES, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. In the SMALL INTESTINE, the mucosa is characterized by a series of folds and abundance of absorptive cells (ENTEROCYTES) with MICROVILLI.

D010758	Phosphorus	A non-metal element that has the atomic symbol P, atomic number 15, and atomic weight 31. It is an essential element that takes part in a broad variety of biochemical reactions.

D002118	Calcium	A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
