Acidosis And alkalosis effect on Ca
Daily requirement of CA

A

Acidosis increased amount of ionized ca . In the blood replacement instead of h+ that will go into the cells and get ca2 out of it to neutralize the charge outside the cell ECF

Q

What are the major pools of CA in our body

A

Mainly in the bone 99%
1 % in the ECF an intracelleuler ,]mainly ECF concentration of ionized ca in the ECf is 12000 more than ICF
ICF sequestered exclusively out of the cystol nad within the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum .
It’s released only by certain stimuli or cell damage as oxytocin

Q

At which body compartments does PTH hormone works

A

1 bone increase bone resorption works mainly at 1st on the osteoblast to increase the ca intake then 2nd phase on osteclast to retake ca and increase it in the blood from the bone
2 kidneys works on DCT to reabsorp higher Amount of Ca and increase excretion of PO4 by the PCT
Let the kindney convert calcitriol by increasing alpha 1 hydroxylase to make vitamin D with 3 OH instead of 2 then this will go to the intestines and increase absorption of Ca by calbindin activation . Increase vit D production
Promotes calcitriol production

3 intestines
Increases ca an po4 absorption

Q

When does calcitonin secreted and what does it do

A

Calcitonin is secreted as a response for increased levels of CA and PO4
Works o osteoclast mainly not osteoblast , by inhibiting it’s effect بحب العضم كتير بهمه يبني العضم
So increases deposition of CA and PO4 in the bone and decreases its level in the blood
Prevent reabsorption of Ca and PO4 reabsorption from the PCT . So it works on the osteoclast and PCt of the kidney
In the book it says that it decreases ca reabsorption in the intestine but on YouTube it says that calcitonin doesn’t work on the intestines .
