Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Mineral Metabolism
  • Physiology

Context:

  • Calcium homeostasis is critical for numerous physiological processes.
  • Extracellular calcium concentration is tightly regulated.
  • Hormonal and organ-based mechanisms maintain calcium balance.

Purpose:

  • To review the key components of calcium homeostasis.
  • To describe the roles of calciotropic hormones and effector organs.
  • To elucidate the hormonal regulation of calcium fluxes.

Summary:

  • Calcium homeostasis involves the interplay of bone remodeling, kidney function, and gut absorption.
  • Parathyroid hormone, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D, and calcitonin are the primary calciotropic hormones.
  • These hormones regulate calcium fluxes, with their secretion influenced by plasma calcium levels.
