Brief summary

The investigators aim to study potential racial differences in renal phosphorus handling by provocatively testing urinary phosphorus excretion using parathyroid hormone infusions in healthy white volunteers compared to healthy black volunteers.

Interventions

DRUG1-34 parathyroid infusion

1-34 parathyroid infusion at 0.055 mcg/kg/hr for 6 hours
