The mechanisms of chronic kidney disease-associated secondary hyperparathyroidism are partially understood. In this project we aimed to gain new information and propose research hypotheses by proteome and phosphoproteome profiling of normal and hyperplastic rat parathyroid glands. Glands were microdissected from rats on normal control diet or CKD-inducing high adenine diet enriched with phosphorus to produce secondary hyperparathyroidism. Protein extracts were pooled from 4 glands (2 rats) for proteome profiling (3 normal and 3 CKD pools), and from 12 glands (6 rats) for phosphoproteome profiling (2 normal and 2 CKD pools).
