Abstract
Magnesium-deficient rats develop significant hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia, and hyperphosphaturia. These changes suggest a state of hyperparathyroidism. This study examines the regulation of parathyroid gland activity in magnesium-deficient rats. Magnesium deficiency was induced in intact and chronically parathyroidectomized animals by feeding them a diet free of this cation. Control animals were pair fed and treated identically except for the inclusion of magnesium in their gavage solution.
