Question
Chapter 6.9, Problem 38AYP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The way by which PTH controls the number of osteoclasts and the effects of PTH on the formation of calcitriol, Ca2+ uptake in the small intestine and reabsorption of Ca2+ from the urine.
Introduction
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted from the parathyroid glands present in the neck behind the thyroid hormone. It raises the calcium level in blood.

For each of the following scenarios explain how blood calcium would be effected (increased or decrease) and describe the pathway that results in an alteration of calcium levels.
A: Jackie goes on a tropical vacation.
B: Larry has takes a medication that osteoblasts more active.
C: Lisa has an operation to remove her parathyroid glands.
Describe the homeostatic control of plasma calcium levels by answering the following two questions:
What role does calcitonin play in the maintenance of serum calcium? Give reference to the gland involved in secretion, the bone cells stimulated by calcitonin and the effects of calcitonin.
Describe the role parathyroid hormone (PTH) has in the maintenance of serum calcium, giving reference to the gland involved, the particular bone cells stimulated and the major effects of PTH.
Explain that PTH and calcitonin act in a complementary way to control blood calcium level
