Parathyroid hormone increases renal distal tubular calcium reabsorption and mobilizes calcium from bone. Calcitriol, the active product of vitamin D metabolism, enhances gastrointestinal calcium absorption and also mobilizes calcium from bone. The roles of parathyroid hormone and calcitriol in calcium homeostasis are intimately interrelated. Parathyroid hormone is the primary trophic stimulator of renal 1 α-hydroxylase, the enzyme that converts 25-hydroxycholecalciferol into calcitriol. Calcitriol, in turn, inhibits parathyroid hormone secretion by at least two different mechanisms: direct repression of the preproparathyroid hormone gene and inhibition of ...References1.
