  3. Parathyroid gland - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parathyroid_gland

    The parathyroid glands do this by secreting parathyroid hormone (PTH). [11] Parathyroid hormone (also known as parathormone) is a small protein that takes part in the control of calcium and phosphate homeostasis, as well as bone physiology. Parathyroid hormone has effects antagonistic to those of calcitonin. [12] Calcium.

    reabsorption in response to PTH and ↑ reabsorption with Thiazide Diuretics. – Magnesium: Calcium and magnesium compete, and an excess of one can lead to excretion of the other. reabsorption: reabsorption (thick ascending) reabsorption – Phosphate: Excreted as titratable acid. reabsorption (85%) via sodium/phosphate cotransporter. [3]

  5. Calcium metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_metabolism

    The low levels of PTH have several other effects: there is increased loss of calcium in the urine, but more importantly, the loss of phosphate ions through urine is inhibited. Phosphate ions will therefore be retained in the plasma where they form insoluble salts with calcium ions, thereby removing them from the ionized calcium pool in the blood.

  6. Hyperphosphatemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperphosphatemia

    PTH normally inhibits reabsorption of phosphate by the kidney. Therefore, without enough PTH there is more reabsorption of the phosphate leading to a high phosphate level in the blood. [citation needed] Chronic kidney failure: When the kidneys are not working well, there will be increased phosphate retention. [citation needed]

  7. Endocrine system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endocrine_system

    PTH acts on bone, the kidneys, and the GI tract to increase calcium reabsorption and phosphate excretion. In addition, PTH stimulates the conversion of Vitamin D to its most active variant, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3, which further stimulates calcium absorption in the GI tract.

  8. Proximal tubule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proximal_tubule

    phosphate: approximately 80%: Parathyroid hormone reduces reabsorption of phosphate in the proximal tubules, but, because it also enhances the uptake of phosphate from the intestine and bones into the blood, the responses to PTH cancel each other out, and the serum concentration of phosphate remains approximately the same. citrate: 70%–90% [12]

  9. Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism

    The diagnosis is based on the presence of the Albright hereditary osteodystrophy pseudotype but without the PTH resistance. Blood tests including calcium, phosphate, and PTH will exclude other forms of pseudohypoparathyroidism. X-rays may reveal a short fourth metacarpal. Genetic testing can confirm the diagnosis by showing GNAS gene mutation. [1]
