  • Title: Increase in urinary excretion of phosphates, hydroxyproline, and cAMP during acetate desoxycorticosterone + saline treatment in the rat.
    Author: Berthelot A, Pernot F, Gairard A.
    Journal: Arch Int Pharmacodyn Ther; 1978 Oct; 235(2):196-203. PubMed ID: 216328.
    Abstract:
    We investigated the urinary excretion of phosphates, hydroxyproline, and cAMP in rats treated with desoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) associated with a hypersaline diet. We measured the three substances in groups with or without parathyroid or thyroid glands, or both. Urinary phosphate excretion increased greatly during the first weeks of treatment in normal rats and in rats autografted with parathyroids and lacking thyroid, and increased slightly in the groups without parathyroids. Hydroxyproline and cAMP had the same pattern; their excretion was greatest during week 2 of treatment in all groups, but these phenomena were more intense in animals with parathyroids. These fact support the conclusion that the parathyroid glands are stimulated during the start of mineralocorticoid-saline treatment.
