  • Title: Effect of parathyroid hormone on rat skeletal muscle in vivo.
    Author: Thompson CH, Kemp GJ, Radda GK.
    Journal: Nephron; 1996; 72(2):253-6. PubMed ID: 8684535.
    Abstract:
    The secondary hyperparathyroidism of chronic renal failure has been implicated in the pathogenesis of metabolic abnormalities in skeletal muscle. We studied the muscle metabolism in a model of hyperparathyroidism (Wistar rats injected with parathyroid hormone or saline for 4 days). 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy allowed measurements of the concentration of cytosolic metabolically active inorganic phosphate [Pi] at rest and the rates of oxidative and anaerobic adenosine triphosphate turnover during exercise and recovery. Parathyroid hormone caused significant reductions in plasma [Pi] and intracellular [Pi], but had no effect upon oxidative or glycogenolytic adenosine triphosphate turnover.
