Q

Decline plasma Ca+ levels

A
  • Release of PTH
  • Increases Ca+ levels
    (1) BONES: osteoclasts break down bone matrix, releases Ca++ HPO into blood
    (2) KIDNEYS: increases Ca++ reabsorption in kidneys
    (3) SMALL INTESTINE: increases intestinal absorption of Ca++ by making kidneys to make vitamin D

  • Inhibits neurons + muscle cells

- May cause life threatening cardiac arrhythmias

31
Q

Phosphate

A
  • 75% filtered in PCT (secondary active transport)
  • Set by transport maximum
  • PTH inhibits active transport by decreasing TM
  • When ECF Ca++ levels are normal, PTH is inhibited, more phosphate retained

Decreased Ventilation

A
  • Increased CO2
  • Reaction moves to the right
  • Increases H+
