FIGURE 14-1 Calcium homeostasis. Decreased blood levels of calcium stimulate the
release of PTH from the parathyroid glands. PTH enters the circulatory system and is
transported to the kidneys, intestines, and bone. In the kidney, calcium is reabsorbed while
phosphate is excreted. PTH increases intestinal calcium absorption by increasing
1,25(OH)2D3. In bone, PTH stimulates an increase in the release of minerals (e.g., calcium
and phosphate) from bone into the extracellular fluid.

• Urinary Calcium
– Concentration of
calcium in urine
reflects:
▪ Intestinal absorption
▪ Skeletal resorption
▪ Renal tubular
filtration and
reabsorption
– Increased urinary
calcium concentration
may be associated
with an increase in
osteoclastic bone
resorption.

• Phosphorus Homeostasis
– Human body contains about
620 g of phosphorus entirely
in the form of phosphate
(PO42-).
– Phosphate ions are
distributed equally.
▪ Intracellular
▪ Extracellular
– Intracellular phosphate occurs
mainly as a component of
macromolecules (e.g.
phospholipids and
phosphoproteins).

• Phosphorus
Homeostasis
– Approximately 85% of
extracellular phosphate
occurs in inorganic
form as hydroxyapatite.
– In plasma, most
phosphate exists in the
inorganic form as
mono- or dihydrogen
phosphate ions.
– Three major organs
involved in phosphorus
homeostasis are the
small intestine,
kidneys, and skeleton.

• Magnesium Homeostasis
– In a normal adult, the total
body magnesium is ∼ 25g.
– About 55% of the total body
magnesium is in the skeleton
and the rest is intracellular.
– Magnesium serves as a
cofactor for more than 300
enzymes.
▪ Required for enzymesubstrate (ES) formation
▪ Functions as an activator for
many enzyme systems
Magnesium is required for:
-Cellular energy
metabolism and membrane
stabilization
-Nerve conduction
-Ion transport
-Ca2+ channel activity

• Magnesium Levels
– Urinary magnesium levels
provide the clinician with
valuable data to evaluate
patients who present with
hypomagnesemia that
develops late in the course
of magnesium deficiency.
– Reference range for 24h
urinary magnesium is 6.0–
10.0 mEq/L to 51 – 269
mg/24h.

• Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)
– An 84-amino acid peptide
synthesized by the chief
cells of the parathyroid
gland
– Secretion is highly
dependent on the ionized
calcium concentration via a
negative feedback loop.
– Serum PTH concentration
decreases as the serum
calcium concentration
increases.
Biological actions
-Stimulation of osteoclastic bone
reabsorption and release of
calcium and phosphate from
bone.
-Stimulation of calcium
reabsorption and inhibition of
phosphate reabsorption from the
renal tubules.
-Stimulation of renal production of
1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3, which
increase intestinal absorption of
calcium and phosphate.

– Role of Vitamin D in
Calcium Metabolism
• Vitamin D and Metabolites
– Vitamin D3, or cholecalciferol, is a
prohormone.
– Almost all of vitamin D3 in plasma is
bound to serum alpha globulin.
– Steroid hormone 1,25(OH)2D3 is the major
biologically active metabolite of the
vitamin D sterol family.
– Previtamin D3 is either ingested or
synthesized in the skin from 7dehydrocholestrol through exposure to
sunlight.
▪ Increases plasma
calcium and phosphate
concentration by
increasing the absorption
of calcium and
phosphate from the
gastrointestinal tract.
▪ Increases bone
resorption and enhances
the effects of PTH in the
nephron to promote renal
tubular calcium
reabsorption.

• Calcitonin
– Calcitonin is a 32-amino acid
peptide synthesized and
secreted by the parafollicular
cells of the thyroid gland.
– Ionized calcium levels are
significant regulators of calcitonin
secretion.
– While the precise biological role
of calcitonin is uncertain, it does
directly inhibit osteoclastic bone
resorption.
– Useful in the evaluation of
patients with nodular thyroid
disease

Mineral Disorders
– Common disorder
▪ Affects about 1% of the
general population
– Two principle causes
▪ Malignancy
▪ Primary
hyperparathyroidism
– Categories
▪ Deficiency in PTH
production and secretion
▪ Resistance to PTH
secretion
▪ Deficiency in vitamin D or
vitamin D metabolites
▪ Deficiencies in bone
mineralization with normal
metabolism of PTH and
vitamin D.

Mineral Disorders
• Primary
Hyperparathyroidism
(PHPT)
– Caused by a disorder of
calcium metabolism in
relationship to excessive
PTH release.
– Characterized by
excessive secretion of
calcium in the absence of
an appropriate
physiological stimulus.
– Common symptoms
involve lethargy, coma,
psychosis, anorexia, and
hypertension.
