Calcium history
• Latin calx or calcis meaning ”lime”
• Known as early as first century when ancient Romans prepared lime as calcium oxide
• Isolated in 1808 by Englishman Sir Humphrey Davy through the electrolysis of a mixture of lime (CaO) and mercuric oxide (HgO
• In 1883 demonstrated Sydney Ringer the biological significance of calcium

Calcium occurrence
In nature• Does not exist freely • Occurs mostly in soil systems as limestone (CaCO3),
gypsum (CaSO4*2H2O) & fluorite (CaF2)
In the body• The most abundant mineral• Average adult body contains app. 1 kg• 0.1 % in the extra cellular fluid• 1 % in the cells• The rest (app. 99 %) in the skeleton
(Bones can serve as large reservoirs, releasing calcium when extracellular fluid concentration decreases and storing excess calcium)

Calcium functions
• Major structural element in the vertebrate skeleton (bones and teeth) in the form of calcium phosphate (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 known as hydroxyapatatite
• Key component in the maintenance of the cell structure
• Membrane rigidity, permeability and viscosity are partly dependent on local calcium concentrations
![Page 14: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Calcium functions (Bone)
• Osteoclasts (bone cells) remodel the bone by dissolving or resorbing bone
• Osteoblasts (bone forming cells) synthesize new bone to replace the resorbed bone
- Found on the outer surfaces of the bones and in the bone cavities
![Page 15: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Interactions
• Phosphate: ↓ calcium excretion in the urine• Caffeine: ↑ urinary and fecal excretion of calcium• Sodium: ↑ sodium intake, ↑ loss of calcium in urine• Dietary constituents: Phytic acid can reduce
absorption of calcium by forming an insoluble salt (calcium phytate)
• Iron: calcium might have inhibitory effect on iron absorption
![Page 16: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Three in Calcium
3 Sites – Intestines, bones, blood.
3 hormones – Parthormone, Calcitonin, Vitamin D.
3 chemical forms – protein bound, ionic calcium, crystalline form.
3 crystalline forms – Hydroxyapatite(ha), calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate(CPPD), Calcium oxalate.
3 forms of pathological calcification –dystrophic calcification, metastatic calcification, calcium stone
(lithiasis)
![Page 17: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Absorption and excretion• Usual intakes is 1000 mg/day
• About 35 % is absorbed (350 mg/day) by the intestines
• Calcium remaining in the intestine is excreted in the feces
• 250 mg/day enters intestine via secreted gastrointestinal juices and sloughed mucosal cells
• 90 % (900 mg/day) of the daily intake is excreted in the feces
• 10 % (100 mg/day) of the ingested calcium is excreted in the urine
• Calcium must be in a soluble and ionized form before it can be absorbed
![Page 18: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Absorption and excretion factors
• Absorption increased by:- Body need- Vitamin D- Protein- Lactose- Acid medium• Absorption decreased by:- Vitamin D deficiency- Calcium-phosphorus imbalance- Oxalic acid- Phosphorous- Dietary fiber- Excessive fat- High alkalinity- Also stresses and lack of exercise
• Excretion increased by:- Low parathyroid hormone (PTH)- High extracellular fluid volume- High blood pressure- Low plasma phosphate- Metabolic alkalosis• Excretion decreased by:- High parathyroid hormone- Low extracellular fluid volume- Low blood pressure- High plasma phosphate- Metabolic acidosis- Vitamin D3

Regulation Vitamin D,
parathyroid hormone
and calcitonin
![Page 20: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

• Vitamin D (in active form)- Has several effects on the intestine and
kidneys that increase absorption of calcium and phosphate into the extracellular fluid
- Important effects on bone deposition and bone absorption
![Page 22: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
RegulationActivation of vitamin D3 - Cholecalciferol formed in the skin
by sun- Converted in liver
(feedback effect)- 1,25 DHCC formation in kidney- Controlled by PTH- Plasma calcium concentration
inversely regulates 1,25 DHCC
![Page 23: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)-Provides powerful mechanism for controlling extracellular calcium and phosphate concentrations by regulating intestinal reabsorption, renal excretion and exchange between the extracellular fluid and bone of the two ions
Calcitonin (a peptide hormone secreted by the thyroid gland)-Tends to decrease plasma calcium concentration -In general, has effects opposite to those of PTH (quantitative role is far less than that of PTH in regulating Ca ion concentration)
![Page 24: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Regulation
• Compensatory responses to decreased plasma ionized calcium concentration mediated by PTH & vitamin D
• PTH regulates through 3 main effects:- By stimulating bone resorption- By stimulating activation of vitamin D → ↑ intestinal Ca reabsorption- By directly increasing renal tubular calcium reabsorption
![Page 25: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Factors regulating plasma calcium level
Calcitriol: 1, 25 DHCC
Increases intestinal absorption.
Stimulates calcium uptake by bone and
promotes calcification

Clinical considerations
![Page 36: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Deficiency• A negative calcium balance occurs when net calcium
absorption is unable to replace losses
• The most dramatic symptoms are manifested in the teeth
and bones of young humans and animals → stunted growth,
poor quality of bones and teeth and malformation of bones
![Page 37: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Measuring calcium• Atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) can
measure total amount of Ca2+ in tissue
• Fluorescent dyes can be used to measure Ca2+ in vivo
• Calcium sensor (GFP-based) fluorescent protein “cameleon” is non invasive and can be targeted to various cellular compartments – enabling a study of spatial and organellar aspects of calcium homeostasis
• Neutron activation analysis enables total body calcium to be measured in living persons
• Bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) are used as indicators of calcium insufficiency and as predictors of increased risk of fracture, when compared to a reference range, adjusted for age and gender
![Page 39: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• Blood and urine calcium measurements cannot tell how much calcium is in the bones. A test similar to an X-ray, called a bone density or "Dexa" scan, is used for this purpose.
![Page 40: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Who Needs a Calcium Blood Test?A calcium blood test can be part of a screen for a variety of diseases and conditions, including osteoporosis, cancer, and kidney diseases. This blood test may also be required to monitor ongoing treatments of other conditionsedications you are taking don’t have any unintended side effects.
Your doctor may order this test if he or she suspects any of the following conditions:bone diseases, such as osteoporosis or osteopeniacancerchronic kidney or liver diseasedisorders of the parathyroid glandmalabsorption or a disorder that affects how your body absorbs nutrientsan over or underactive thyroid gland

high total calcium (hypercalcemia)• Two of the more common causes of hypercalcemia are:• Hyperparathyroidism, an increase in parathyroid gland function: • this condition is usually caused by a benign tumor of the parathyroid gland. • Cancer: cancer can cause hypercalcemia when it spreads to the bones and
causes the release of calcium from the bone into the blood or when a cancer produces a hormone similar to PTH, resulting in increased calcium levels.
• Some other causes of hypercalcemia include:• Hyperthyroidism• Sarcoidosis• Tuberculosis• Prolonged immobilization• Excess vitamin D intake• Thiazide diuretics• Kidney transplant• HIV/AIDS
![Page 43: Calcium & phosphate metabolism](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070516/58737f9d1a28ab272d8b4827/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Low total calcium (hypocalcemia)• The most common cause of low total calcium is:• Low blood protein levels, especially a low level of albumin, which can
result from liver disease or malnutrition, both of which may result from alcoholism or other illnesses. Low albumin is also very common in people who are acutely ill. With low albumin, only the bound calcium is low. Ionized calcium remains normal, and calcium metabolism is being regulated appropriately.
• Some other causes of hypocalcemia include:• Underactive parathyroid gland (hypoparathyroidism)• Inherited resistance to the effects of parathyroid hormone• Extreme deficiency in dietary calcium• Decreased levels of vitamin D• Magnesium deficiency• Increased levels of phosphorus• Acute inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis)• Renal failure

Human health studies
• Resent studies showed- Calcium may play a substantial contributing role in reducing the
incidence of obesity and prevalence of the insulin resistance syndrome
- High calcium intake is associated with a plasma lipoprotein-lipid profile predictive of a lower risk of coronary heart disease compared with a low calcium intake
- Dairy product intake (with recommended calcium levels) protect women consuming oral contraceptives from spine and hip bone loss
- Children who avoid drinking cow milk have low dietary calcium intakes and poor bone health
