Function of PTH?
|
increase plasma Ca and decrease plasma PO4 by increasing bone deposition and resorption and increasing kidney resorption of Ca
|
|
Fxn of vitamin D?
|
increase plasma Ca and decrease plasma PO4 by increasing GI abs of both, increasing calcium bone deposition and resorption, increase renal reabsorption of Ca and PO4
