黑斑蛙后鳃体对实验性高钙血症反应的研究。

Z Mikrosk Anat Forsch. 1980;94(5):818-24.

Hypercalcaemia (induced by calcium-rich environment and vitamin D2 treatment) activates the ultimobranchial body of Rana cyanophlyctis. This is expressed by hyperplasia of follicular cells, formation of secondary follicles and increased vascular supply to the UBB. This activity of the gland is to counteract hypercalcaemia.

高钙血症（由富含钙的环境和维生素D2治疗引起）激活了蓝斑林蛙的后鳃体。这表现为滤泡细胞增生、次级滤泡形成以及后鳃体血管供应增加。该腺体的这种活动是为了对抗高钙血症。
