The effects of synthetic human and salmon calcitonins on electrolyte excretion in the rat.
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. The effects on renal electrolyte excretion of human and salmon synthetic calcitonins were studied in the rat. 2. As little as 50 ng of salmon calcitonin produced an increase in sodium excretion, but human calcitonin in doses up to 15 pg had only a slight effect. 3. Small doses of both hormones decreased urinary calcium and magnesium. Larger doses of salmon calcitonin produced less depression of calcium and magnesium excretion even in the presence of a greater fall in plasma calcium. 4. The mechanisms responsible for these effects and the possible therapeutic implications are discussed.

Intrathecal Amylin and Salmon Calcitonin Affect Formalin Induced c-Fos Expression in the Spinal Cord of Rats
Background: Amylin and Salmon Calcitonin belong to the calcitonin family of peptides and have high affinity binding sites in the rat spinal cord. The aim of this study was to characterize receptors for Amylin and Salmon Calcitonin functionally in the spinal cord of rats. We assessed the expression of c-Fos in response to intraplantar formalin in the lumbar regions of the spinal cord in consciou...
متن کاملIsolation and chemical properties of two calcitonins from salmon ultimobranchial glands.
Calcitonin was extracted from the ultimobranchial gland of salmon in quantities sufficient to permit purification and chemical characterization. The partially purified extract was subjected to gel filtration and ion exchange chromatography. Purification was monitored by bioassay of column e&tents against a standard prepared from the starting material. These methods led to detection of two chemi...
متن کاملEffects of Calcium - Modulating Hormones on Thiazide Receptor ty ’ 2
Thiazide diuretic drugs act in the distal convoluted tubule (DCI) to inhibit a Na Cl cotransporter and enhance reabsorption of luminal calcium. The density of receptors for thiazides in the rat DCI is known to be increased by adrenocortical steroids, furosemide, and bendroflumethiazide, but decreased by ischemia. Because the DCI is a physiologic site of action by calcitonin and parathyrold horm...

Introduction: It was shown in a previous study, that MCPIP, a cilostamide derivative, increased atrial contraction force without changing contraction rate. To improve this property, two new derivatives of cilostamide were synthesized and their effects on PDE3 activity and isolated rat atria contraction were investigated. Methods: The inhibitory effect of each compound on PDE3 enzyme was dete...

To clarify the controversial renal action of calcitonin (CT) and a possible interrelationship between CT and parathyroid hormone, eight patients with untreated surgical hypoparathyroidism were studied. Various calcitonins, i.e. extracted porcine, synthetic porcine, synthetic human, and synthetic salmon CT in doses of 150 Medical Research Council U or 1.5 mg were infused over a 3 hr period. Subs...
