Familial Hypocalciuric Hypercalcemia
(again)
PTH
Serum Ca
Urine Ca
Pi
Vit. D
PTH normal to high
Serum Ca high
Urine Ca low
Pi normal
Vit. D normal
What enzyme makes Vit. D into the active form and what is the name of the active form?
CYP1a (a-hydroxylase) makes it the active form
1, 25 OH2 cholecalciferol is the active form
occurs in the kidney (PCT)
What is the effect of PTH on the kidney (DCT)
Inhibition of the Na/Pi channel causes what?
Triggers second messenger system via GPCR and makes Ca channels to suck Ca in from the lumen and then into the blood via Na/Ca exchange and Ca/H exhange
Inhibition of the Na/Pi channel causes phophaturia
Is free ionized Ca high or low during acidemia?
Is free ionized Ca high or low during alkalemia?
high because less Ca is bound to albumin
low because more Ca is bound to albumin, often accompanied by hypocalcemia
