Q

what is the effect of PTH on Ca and Phosphate?

A

Kidney:

  • decrease phosphate reabsorption -> decrease plasma phosphate
  • increase Ca reabsorption -> increase plasma Ca
  • increase 1,25-OH2-D3 formation -> increase intestinal Ca absorption
    • > increase plasma Ca

Q

what are the effects of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol?

A

kidneys:
