Inorganic phosphate is an important part of cells as well as body components such as bone. The amount of phosphate within an organism can alter bodily calcium balance, acidity of body fluids, and growth. Phosphate regulation is therefore important in all vertebrates. Dietary intake, intestinal absorption and renal excretion determine the body phosphate balance. The processes in the kidneys which control the excretion of phosphate are not understood in animals such as birds and fishes. Unlike mammals, the latter have a mechanism to transfer phosphate directly from blood to the urine through kidney cells. The objectives of this work include the study of the mechanism of phosphate transfer at both the cellular and cell membrane levels. Regulation of phosphate excretion by the kidneys involves the interaction of hormones, acid-base balance, and dietary phosphate availability. Dr. Renfro will examine the basic cellular processes by which these factors alter body phosphate.

无机磷酸盐是细胞和骨骼等身体成分的重要组成部分。生物体中磷酸盐的含量可以改变体内钙的平衡、体液的酸度和生长。因此，磷酸盐调节在所有脊椎动物中都很重要。膳食摄入、肠道吸收和肾脏排泄决定了体内的磷酸盐平衡。在鸟类和鱼类等动物中，肾脏中控制磷酸盐排泄的过程尚不清楚。与哺乳动物不同，后者有一种通过肾细胞将磷酸盐直接从血液转移到尿液的机制。这项工作的目的包括在细胞和细胞膜水平上研究磷酸盐转移的机制。肾脏对磷酸盐排泄的调节涉及激素、酸碱平衡和膳食磷酸盐可利用性的相互作用。伦弗洛博士将研究这些因素改变体内磷酸盐的基本细胞过程。
