Sayner- calcium and phosphate metabolism Flashcards
Calcium intake via the intestine is dependent upon ____
vitamin D
excretion of calcium via
kidney
reservoir of calcium
bone
major calcium reservoir is found in the bone, and this accounts for about ____% of total body calcium
99%
Sx’s that occur with hypercalcemia when levels are above 11.5
stones, bones, abdominal groans, psychiatric overtones
50% of total body calcium found as what form
free ionized (active)
total plasma calcium
8.5-10.6 mg/dL
Calcium and ______ homeostasis are intimately tied together
phosphorus
Phosphate uptake in the small intestines is dependent upon ______
vitamin D
excretion via kidneys and stored in bone and soft tissue
phosphate
85% of phosphate stored in _____ as hydroxyapatite crystals
bone
90% of total body phosphate is in the form of what
free ionized- active
> 11.5 mg of calcium
hypercalcemia
< 8.5 mg/dL of calcium
hypocalcemia
_____ affects on bone:
resorption-osteoblast mediated regulation of osteoclast activity- increase in serum calcium
PTH (parathyroid hormone)
_____ affects on kidney:
increase calcium reabsorption, decrease phosphate reabsorption, increase vitamin D
PTH (parathyroid)
secreted by chief cells of the parathyroid gland
PTH
located on posterior aspect of thyroid
4 parathyroid glands
____ cells have calcium receptor that acts as sensor for free Ca2+
chief cells
chief cells
calcium sensor on Chief cells
PTH
As serum free calcium levels drop, inhibition is lost and _____secreted
PTH
Elevated Ca2+ and vitamin D inhibit _____synthesis
PTH
elevated phosphorus stimulates ____
PTH
peptide hormone—-synthesized in endoplasmic reticulum
PTH
The 84 residue ______ can be broken down in the secretory vesicle into the N- and C-terminal fragments, which are then released into the circulation.
PTH
active fragment of 84 PTH residue
short N-terminal
Active ____ is proteolytically cleaved secretory vesicles (chief cells) and liver (circulation) into 2 fragments
PTH
PTH binds ____ expressed on bone and kidney
PTH-R1
