Action Du Propyl-Thiouracile Donné À La Ratte Gestante Sur Les Parathyroïdes Et Sur La Calcémie Des Foetus. Remarques Sur La Physiologie Des Parathyroïdes

Abstract: Giving propyl-thiouracil to pregnant rats during the 5 days preceding term (50 mg per day), results in the following effects in the foetuses: increase of foetal calcaemia without concomitant change in maternal calcaemia; increase of the »average cellular surface« and of the diameter of the nuclei of the parathyroid cells; decrease of the growth of the parathyroid glands which results at term in a smaller volume of these glands as compared with control foetuses. The significance of these changes… Show more

“…During the last days of pregnancy, the serum calcium level of the fetal rat is higher than that of the mother [3,4], The presence of fetal hypercalcemia in relation to the mother is reported by Pic et al [5], The injection of antiparathormone (PTH) serum to the rat fetus on day 21.5 results in a decrease in serum calcium and an increase in fetal serum phosphate [6]. The injection of PTH into the fetus results in an increase in fetal serum calcium.…”

“…Calcium homeostasis has been much studied in the adult mammal, and there is an extensive literature which agrees that during late foetal life foetal total plasma calcium is greater than that of the mother [Rat: Krukowski and Lehr, 1963;Jost et al, 1963;dog: Hoskins andSnyder, 1927-8 and1933;monkey: MacDonald et al, 1965;cow: Robinson and Huffman, 1926;Plumlee et al, 1952;sheep: Bawden et al, 1965;guinea pig: Burnette et al, 1968;and man: Smith, 1951]. In some cases, differences of as much as 5 mg/100 ml.…”

“…The calcium levels in the fetal rat are higher titan in the mother during the last 6 days of gestation (Jost et al, 1963 ;Krukowski and Lehr, 1963;Pic, 1969). The control of plasma calcium levels in the fetus appears to depend in part on the parathyroid glands.…”
