  • Title: Corpuscles of Stannius-extract-induced rapid but transient hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia in stingray, Dasyatis akajei.
    Author: Srivastav AK, Srivastav SK, Sasayama Y, Suzuki N.
    Journal: Gen Comp Endocrinol; 1996 Oct; 104(1):37-40. PubMed ID: 8921353.
    Abstract:
    Aqueous extracts of goldfish Corpuscles of Stannius were tested in an elasmobranch, Dasyatis akajei, to investigate the effects upon plasma calcium and inorganic phosphate. The extract produced hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia in the stingray. Receptors with affinity for stanniocalcin are therefore widespread among the vertebrates.
