Summary
The effect of Parathormone injections causing mobilization of radiocalcium from incarceration in stable bone mineral of rat, has been studied by observing specific activities of bones and amounts of radiocalcium appearing in urine prior to and following subcutaneous injections of bovine parathyroid extracts. From the greatly increased renal excretion of Ca45 following injection of parathyroid extracts it can be reasonably concluded that these extracts are able to produce mobilization of stable bone mineral from the rat skeleton.
