Medical Department P, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark.

The metabolism of synthetic human intact PTH (1-84), 1,000 or 3 pmol/l, was studied in isolated perfused livers and in filtering and nonfiltering kidneys from normal rats and rats made chronically uremic by 5/6 nephrectomy. Clearances were measured by assays specific for intact PTH, and NH2-terminal, mid-molecule, and COOH-terminal iPTH. Release of PTH fragments was analyzed by HPLC. Clearance of the added intact PTH by the uremic kidneys was reduced by the same order of magnitude as GFR. Neither the uremic nor the normal kidneys released any iPTH fragments. No peritubular metabolism of intact PTH was found in the uremic nonfiltering kidneys. Clearance of intact PTH by uremic and control livers was not significantly different. The uremic and control livers released equal amounts of COOH-terminal iPTH fragments, but no NH2-terminal fragments. Thus, uremia per se did not influence the renal and hepatic metabolism of PTH.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007668 Kidney Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations. Kidneys
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.

D008099 Liver A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances. Livers
D008297 Male Males
D010281 Parathyroid Hormone A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D014511 Uremia A clinical syndrome associated with the retention of renal waste products or uremic toxins in the blood. It is usually the result of RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. Most uremic toxins are end products of protein or nitrogen CATABOLISM, such as UREA or CREATININE. Severe uremia can lead to multiple organ dysfunctions with a constellation of symptoms. Uremias
