Serum sialyl tranferase activity (STA) and protein bound carbohydrate were measured in hypercalcemic patients with surgically documented hyperparathyroidism (n = 15) or with cancer without skeletal metastases (n = 10). Precipitable protein-bound sialic acid and hexosamine, but not neutral hexoses or
It is generally known that patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) feature disturbances in carbohydrate metabolism and hypertension. The incidence and prevalence of frank diabetes mellitus is significantly increased in these patients. The etiology and pathogenesis of the vascular and
Phosphate is an abundant mineral found in the body. The body store of phosphate is 500 to 800 g, with 85% of the total body phosphate present in crystals of hydroxyapatite in the bone — about 10% found in muscles and bones in association with proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. The rest gets
The present study reports a rare case of bladder cancer that caused Trousseau's syndrome, a malignancy-associated hypercoagulative state leading to venous or arterial thrombosis. A 38-year-old Japanese female patient experienced a sudden onset of visual field defects and lower limb weakness.
Carbohydrate metabolism was investigated in 9 patients with symptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism. Before and after parathyroidectomy intravenous and oral glucose tolerance test, tolbutamide test, arginine infusion test and insulin tolerance test were performed. During intravenous and oral glucose
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a neoplastic disorder characterized by proliferation of a single clone of plasma cells derived from B cells, which proliferates in the bone marrow and frequently invades the adjacent bone, producing skeletal destruction that results in bone pain and fractures. Patients with
Stanniocalcin is a calcium- and phosphate-regulating glycoprotein hormone that was first described in fish where it functions in preventing hypercalcemia. Human cDNA clones encoding the homolog of stanniocalcin have been recently isolated. In this study, the full-length cDNA coding for human
Hypercalcemia is one of the important paraneoplastic syndromes, mostly occurring in patients with advanced cancer. Clear cell carcinoma is known to be one of the most common histological subtypes of ovarian tumor associated with hypercalcemia. We present a case of ovarian clear cell carcinoma with
Two new forms of BRP-2, a previously described bone resorptive protein, were purified from ascites fluids obtained from patients with hypercalcemia and metastatic bone cancer. The apparent molecular weights of BRP-2 and of these two proteins were 52,000, 48,000, and 46,000, respectively, as
This is a comparative study of the glycoprotein hormone, teleocalcin, from the corpuscles of Stannius of sockeye (Oncorhynchus nerka) and coho (O. kisutch) salmon. Coho teleocalcin was purified by the same procedures used previously to obtain sockeye teleocalcin and was obtained in a comparable
The present investigation was carried out in order to study the acute effects of hypercalcemia on the carbohydrate metabolism in healthy subjects and in patients with non insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). The combined effect of hypercalcemia and a calcium-antagonistic agent (verapamil)
Idiopathic hypercalciuria, defined as the urinary excretion of more than 300 mg. calcium per day in men or more than 250 mg. calcium per day in women, or more than 4 mg. calcium per kg. per day, is observed in about 50 per cent of the patients with calcium oxalate/apatite nephrolithiasis and is one
Ec cell or carcinoid enterochromaffinomas are very rare among the endocrine tumors, and more specifically orthocrine tumors, of the pancreas. We report one case of primary malignant carcinoid tumor of the pancreas, with no apparent metastasis, discovered during exploration for chronic diarrhea
Predominant symptoms of the Verner-Morrison syndrome are diarrhea and hypokalemia; further symptoms can be impaired carbohydrate tolerance, hypercalcemia distension of the intestine and skin alterations. Diagnosis can be confirmed by computer tomography, angiography and demonstration of increased
Rats fed abnormally composed isocaloric diets during 21 days (low magnesium, atherogenous, high in proteins or carbohydrates) develop a mean increase in total number of pancreatic A cells, a significant increase of A/B ratio (atherogenous), and hyperglucagonemia in most of the groups under study.
