Abstract
Rat parathyroid glands maintained in organ culture secrete biologically active parathyroid hormone (PTH) and synthesize and secrete labeled proteins from 3H- or 14C-labeled amino acids added to the medium. The amounts of biological activity and labeled protein in the medium are both inversely proportional to the calcium concentration. Some of the labeled low molecular weight protein was identified as PTH which had been synthesized and secreted in culture by preliminary isolation on Sephadex G-100 columns and further purification using an antibody to bovine PTH which cross-reacted with rat PTH. The cross-reacting antibody inhibited the biological effects of rat PTH and caused hypocalcemia in intact rats. The antibody bound some of the labeled low molecular weight protein of the medium at neutral pH so that it migrated as a large molecular weight complex on Sephadex. Biologically active, labeled PTH was recovered by dissociation of this complex in acid and rechromatography.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
