Summary

This study will determine the contribution of glycolate metabolism to urinary oxalate excretion in healthy subjects, using carbon 13 isotope glycolate tracer technique and a low-oxalate controlled diet.

Conditions

  • Healthy

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Low oxalate controlled Diet

Participants will consume a diet that is controlled in its contents of protein, carbohydrates, fat, calcium, oxalate, vitamin C and sodium. Participants will be asked not to take any dietary supplements, exercise strenuously, or consume food or drink that is not provided to them.

OTHER

Primed, continuous intravenous infusion of 13C2-Glycolate

Participants will receive a continuous intravenous administration of carbon-13 glycolate, a naturally occurring form of glycolate, over the course of several hours until steady-state is achieved, using an IV catheter.

OTHER

Bolus intravenous infusion of 13C2-Glycolate

Participants will receive a bolus intravenous administration of carbon-13 glycolate, a naturally occurring form of glycolate, using an IV catheter.

OTHER

Oral bolus administration of 13C2-Glycolate

Participants will orally ingest a single dose of carbon-13 glycolate, a naturally occurring form of glycolate.
