    Notes: Abstract An active constituent of the leaves ofSolanum malacoxylon (SM) is shown to promote calcium resorption and citrate production in embryonic chick frontal bone culturedin vitro. When injected into rats, SM reduces the ATP content of liver and kidneys. This phenomenon may be related to the ability of SM to stimulate mitochondrial ATPase activity at pH 9.4. SM significantly reduces the concentration of phosphate necessary to alter the uptake of calcium and respiration of siolated mitochondria. The data suggest that SM influences calcium and phosphate metabolism by affecting ion movements into and out of mitochondria.

    Notes: Summary The daily administration of supraphysiological doses of 1,25 dihydroxycholecalciferol (0.1–2.5 µg/d/100 g body weight) to rats, produced respiratory alkalosis. With the doses of 0.1–0.2 µg/d/100 g and feeding a diet with 0.7% of calcium, calcemias did not exceed 2.75 mM, and significantly reduced plasma ionized calcium levels were measured. The latter phenomenon was found associated with increased urinary excretion of cAMP, soft tissue calcium content, and polyuria with hypostenuria, all known effects of parathyroid hormone. These effects were absent in thyroparathyroidectomized rats treated in the same fashion. Present results suggest that the stimulus of low levels of plasma ionized calcium overcomes the probably inhibitory effect of the steroid on parathyroid hormone secretion.
