Abstract

Quantitation of cAMP in plasma and urine allows derivation of indices or renal responsiveness to PTH, indices of steady-state circulating PTH bioactivity, and indices of rapid changes in circulating PTH bioactivity. For each of these three applications, we have cited examples, primarily from our clinical experience, of abnormally high and abnormally low values of the measured indices.
