What is Calcium Homeostasis about?
Calcium homeostasis is primarily regulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcitonin, and vitamin D3, which involve the bones, gastrointestinal tract, and kidneys. PTH promotes calcium release from bones and reabsorption in kidneys, while calcitonin decreases bone resorption and increases urinary calcium excretion. Pathologies such as hypoparathyroidism and hyperparathyroidism can lead to abnormal calcium levels, affecting muscle and nervous system function.
