33 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
second messenger of PTH
cAMP
cells that secrete PTH
chief cells of parathyroid (oxyphil cells)
PTH effects on phosphate
increases bone resorption of phosphate

decreases kidney resorption (increase in urine phosphate)
PTH effects on calcium
increases bone and DCT of kidney resorption
PTH effects on vitamin D (1,25 calcitriol)
increases production via 1 alpha hydroylase stimulation in the kidney
PTH effects on osteoclasts and osteoblasts
stimulates both, and also osteocytes

osteoblasts directly
osteoclasts indirectly
upper lobes origin of parathyroid gland
4th pharyngeal pouch
lower lobes origin of parathyroid gland
3rd pharygeal pouch
regulation of PTH
decrease in serum free Ca2+ increases PTH secretion
PTH effects on renal tubular cells
reabsorption of calcium

inhibits phosphate reabsorption

increases urinary cAMP

stimulations 1,25 production

increases serum calcium
PTH effects on intestinal tract
increases calcium reabsorption via 1,25 activation

increases serum calcium
PTH effects on bone
stimulates calcium release

directly stimulates osteoblasts
indirectly stimulates clasts

enhances bone matrix degradation

increases serum calcium
inactive form of vitamin d
24,25
actions of vitamin D
increases absorption of dietary calcium

increases absorption of dietary phosphate

increases bone resorption of Calcium and phosphate
regulation of vitamin D
1,25 is increased due to low calcium, low phosphate and high PTH
Calcium, Phosphate, ALP and PTH levels in hyperparathyroidism
increased ca, alp and PTH

decreased phosphate
Calcium, Phosphate, ALP and PTH levels in Paget's disease
normal phosphate and PTH

normal or elevated calcium

very elevated ALP
Calcium, Phosphate, ALP and PTH levels in vitamin D toxicity
decreased PTH

elevated calcium and phosphate

normal or elevated ALP
Calcium, Phosphate, ALP and PTH levels in osteomalacia
decreased calcium and phosphate

increased ALP and PTH
Calcium, Phosphate, ALP and PTH leveles in osteoporosis
all are normal
Calcium, Phosphate, ALP and PTH levels in renal insufficiency
decreased calcium

increased phosphate and PTH

normal alp
source of calcitonin
parafollicular cells (c cells of thyroid)
function of calcitonin
decreases bone resoption of calcium (osteoclasts)
regulation of calcitonin
increase serum calcium causes release
cause of primary hyperparathyroidism
usually adenoma, may present with weakness and constipation
cause of secondary hyperparathyroidism
usually chronic renal disease (decreased serum calcium) called renal osteodystrophy
osteitis fibrosa cystica features (von Recklinghausen)
cystic bone spaces filled with brown fibrous tissue causing bone pain
causes of hypoparathyroidism
usually excision during thyroid surgery

autoimmune

diGeorge

hypocalcemia, tetany
chvostek's sign
sign of hypoparathyroidism

tap facial nerve, results in contraction of facial muscles
trousseau's sign
sign of hypoparathyroidism

occlusion of brachial artery with BP cuff causes carpal spasm
features of pseudohypoparathyroidism
AD

kidney is unresponsive to PTH

hypocalcemia, shortened 4th and 5th digits, short stature
causes of hypercalcemia (chimpanzees)
hyperPTH, hyperthyroid, iatrogenic (thiazides), multiple myeloma, paget's, addison's, neoplasms, zollinger ellison, excess D and A, sarcoidosis
magnesium's effects on PTH
mild decrease will stimulate

large decrease will inhibit
