Renal Response to Intravenous Phosphate Infusion in the Sheep

Abstract: Renal clearance experiments were performed on six Merino ewes in which plasma phosphate concentrations were increased by the intravenous infusion of isohydric sodium phosphate. As the phosphate load to the kidney increased, the renal tubular reabsorptive capacity became saturated and a definite tubular maximum for phosphate reabsorption (Tmp) was demonstrated. The Tmp was directly related to the glomerular filtration rate and had a mean value of 333·1 ± 27·0 (S.E.M.) /lmol! min or 416· 6± 13· 5/lmol!100 ml glo… Show more

“…Ruminants fed roughage diets such as hay, straw or grass usually excrete very little phosphate in their urine and are more dependent on the gut than the kidney for major adjustments in phosphate balance (Scott, 1972;Clark, Budtz-Olsen, Cross, Finnamore & Bauert, 1973;Tomas, 1975;Towns, Boston & Lever, 1978). This is in contrast to the situation in non-ruminants in which the kidney is the major site of control.…”

“…1-1. Such levels are not far below what is considered to be the renal threshold for phosphorus excretion in sheep fed roughage diets (Watson, 1933;Clark et al 1973;Tomas, 1975) and in these conditions any further increase in plasma concentration might be expected to result in increased phosphorus excretion in urine. Whether this tendency towards high plasma phosphate levels indicates that they are less competent at regulating intestinal phosphorus absorption is, however, uncertain.…”

“…Sheep fed roughage diets such as hay, straw or grass usually excrete little phosphorus in their urine (Scott, 1969(Scott, , 1972Stacy, 1969;Clark, Budtz-Olsen, Cross, Finnamore & Bauert, 1973;Tomas, 1975;Towns, Boston & Leaver, 1978) and it is generally accepted that in these conditions major adjustments in phosphorus balance are dependent more on the gut than the kidney. Opinions differ, however, as to how within the gut this regulation is achieved.…”

“…Sheep and cattle fed concentrate diets in general seem to excrete much higher levels of phosphorus in their urine (Reed, Elliot & Topps, 1965;Topps, Reed & Elliot, 1966;Hyldgaard-Jensen, Whitelaw, Reid & Murray, 1966;Scott, 1972) than those fed roughage diets (Guegen, 1962;Scott, 1969Scott, , 1972Manston & Vagg, 1970;Clark, Budtz-Olsen, Cross, Finnamore & Bauert, 1973;Grace, Ullyat & MacRae, 1974;Tomas, 1975;Towns, Boston & Leaver, 1978;Grace, 1982) and in some circumstances this can lead to the formation of renal calculi (Bushman, Emerick & Embry, 1965;Hoar, Emerick & Embry, 1969;Rice & McMurray, 1981;Godwin & Williams, 1982). The reason for this phosphaturia is not entirely clear.…”
