Metabolic acidosis induces a combination of inhibited osteoblastic and stimulated osteoclastic activity. To determine the role of alkali therapy in osteoblast function in chronic renal failure, serum bone isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase (BAP) and osteocalcin were assessed before and after bicarbonate infusion. Eighteen patients with mild to moderate metabolic acidosis, none of whom had received dialysis therapy, were enrolled in this study. Metabolic acidosis was corrected by continuous bicarbonate infusion while plasma ionized calcium was monitored at 5 min intervals and held at the preinfusion level by calcium solution infusion during the entire procedure. The end-point of the study was reached when the plasma bicarbonate was approximately 24 mmol/l or pH was approximately 7.4 and plasma ionized calcium was clamped at the preinfusion level with only a 0.01 mmol/l fluctuation. The plasma pH (7.31 +/- 0.04 vs. 7.40 +/- 0.03, P < 0.001), bicarbonate (18.46 +/- 2.49 vs. 23.66 +/- 2.72 mmol/l, P < 0.001), serum total calcium, and osteocalcin (15.61 +/- 6.45 vs. 18.79 +/- 6.71 mg/l, P < 0.05) levels were significantly increased, whereas serum concentrations of alkaline phosphatase and albumin levels were significantly decreased after bicarbonate infusion. The serum BAP (1.85 +/- 1.29 vs. 1.79 +/- 1.18 mukat/l, P = 0.252), and inorganic phosphorus levels showed no significant differences before and after bicarbonate infusion. These results demonstrate that rapid correction of metabolic acidosis improves osteoblast function and may underline the importance of maintaining normal acid-base homeostasis in chronic renal failure.

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.

D010006 Osteoblasts Bone-forming cells which secrete an EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX. HYDROXYAPATITE crystals are then deposited into the matrix to form bone. Osteoblast
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.

D012080 Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder Decalcification of bone or abnormal bone development due to chronic KIDNEY DISEASES, in which 1,25-DIHYDROXYVITAMIN D3 synthesis by the kidneys is impaired, leading to reduced negative feedback on PARATHYROID HORMONE. The resulting SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM eventually leads to bone disorders.

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.
