Moderate dietary restriction of calcium (0.1% Ca) was used to accentuate the changes in serum immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH) that had been reported earlier in lactating rats fed 0.4% Ca diet. In addition, the effects of this low‐Ca diet on serum total and ionized Ca and iPTH during pregnancy, extended lactation, and weaning were examined. The positive correlation between serum total and ionized Ca was highly significant (r= 0.88,p< 0.001,n= 120). Serum iPTH was significantly higher (36%) in pregnant rats on the day of parturition compared to nonmated controls, and there was a concomitant decrease in both total and ionized serum Ca. Within 1 day after parturition, however, serum Ca had risen to the control level. Serum iPTH remained significantly elevated during the first 2 weeks of lactation, and increased further during the third week of lactation to a level more than twice that of nonlactating controls. Serum Ca fell gradually during the second week of lactation. The high serum iPTH levels were maintained for another 2 weeks when lactation was extended with foster litters. Within 6 hr of removal of the suckling pups on day 16 of lactation, maternal serum ionized and total Ca had risen and serum iPTH had fallen; all three parameters were at levels similar to those of nonmated controls by 24–48 hr after weaning. The data suggest that serum ionized Ca is a major factor contributing to the hyperparathyroid state during lactation in rats fed a low‐Ca diet.
