The research in co-operation with the Laboratory of Experimental Pathophysiology deals with the following subjects:
- 1. Bonemetabolism
- Effect of a number of factors on the in vitro bone formation.
- Research on the effect of a calcimimeticum on the evolution of renal osteodystrophy.
- Role of the osteoblast on the development of renal osteodystrophy. A proteomics approach.
- Effect of the uremic environment on the gastrointestinal absorption of lanthanum and its accumulation in a number of relevant organs and subcellular localisation in the liver.
- Effect of the therapeutic use of lanthanum carbonate on the Ca-balance in comparison to other phosphate binding agents.
