Kinder, bone mineral homeostasis part I Flashcards
what minerals are used for bone homeostasis
Ca
phosphate
what hormones are used for bone homeostasis
teriparatide (forteo)
calcintonin (fortical)
what are the drugs we have that are vit D, metabolites and analogs
cholecalciferol (Vit D3)
ergocalciferol (Vit D2)
calcitriol
drug that is selective estrogen R modulator
raloxifene (Evista)
what bisphosphonate do we use
alendronate (fosamax)
where is most cortical bone
appendicular or peripheral bone
where is trabecular bone
acial or central (spine and pelvis)
what regulate osteoclast production
osteoblast derived cyrokines
What is RANK
R for NK-kbeta that is an osteoclast protein required for osteoclastic bone resorption
osteopblasts produce what to keep osteoclast under regulation
osteoprotegerin which acts as a decoy ligand for RANKL
when is OPG suppressed
increased bone resorption
e.g. estrogen deprivation
how long does remodeling of one take
6 mo
where is Ca absorbed
duodenum and upper jejunum
what is absorbed more, Ca or PO4
PO4
where is filtered Ca resorbed
kidney
extracell Ca and PO4 levels
Ca 8.5-10.4
PO4 2.5-4.5
how does PTH change Ca and PO4 levels
increased serum Ca and decreased serum PO4
how does PTH increase osteoclasts
induces osteoblasts to secrete RANKL
