title: [Raised cAMP content of striated muscle in experimental chronic renal failure (author's transl)].
abstract: 3', 5'-Adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels were determined in skeletal and heart muscle tissue of rats in chronic renal failure. Compared to normal animals no alteration in cAMP concentration was observed in heart muscle, whereas the cAMP levels in skeletal muscle were increased by 34%. This cAMP rise may be caused by the elevated plasma catecholamines, glucagon or parathyroid hormone levels in uraemia. The results suggest that the increased cAMP levels in skeletal muscle of rats in chronic renal failure contribute to the raised cAMP levels in the plasma.
