title: Plasma cyclic-AMP response to parathyroid hormone in Turner's syndrome and Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy.
abstract: Purified bovine parathyroid hormone (BPTH) given by injection to five patients with Turner's syndrome, and seven healthy volunteers produced a significant rise in plasma cyclic AMP reacing a maximum within 10 min. In a pseudohypoparathyroid patient there was no increase. Urinary excretion of cyclic AMP exceeded the normal in three out of four patients with Turner's syndrome. Thus, if there is a relationship between Turner's syndrome and Albright's osteodystrophy it is with the incomplete form known as pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism.
