Calcium metabolism disorders
1. CALCIUM METABOLISM DISORDERS
2. OVERVIEW: Calcium definition and requirement . Calcium metabolism regulators : VD , PTH and calcitonin. Functions of calcium. Calcium metabolic bone diseases. Calcium metabolism disorders. CASE !!
3. WHAT IS CALCIUM? Calcium is a mineral that is essential to bone health, cardiovascular health, muscle maintenance, circulatory health, and blood clotting. Calcium also acts as an enzyme activator. While calcium is found in milk and dairy products, it is also available from other food sources, such as green leafy vegetables, seafood (eating salmon with the bones provides an even greater dose), almonds, blackstrap molasses, broccoli, enriched soy and rice milk products, figs, soybeans and tofu.

Bone physiology and calcium homeostasisAbdulla Kamal
Bone is a highly specialized supporting framework of the body, characterized by its rigidity, hardness, and power of regeneration and repair.
It protects the vital organs, provides an environment for marrow ,acts as a mineral reservoir for calcium homeostasis and a reservoir of growth factors and cytokines, and also takes part in acid–base balance.
Bone constantly undergoes modeling (reshaping) during life to help it adapt to changing biomechanical forces, as well as remodeling to remove old, micro-damaged bone and replace it with new, mechanically stronger bone to help preserve bone strength.
This presentation deals with the physiological aspect of Calcium and phosphate metabolism, it's relationship with the various types of rickets and possible remedies

Minerals are inorganic compounds that are required for the body as one of the nutrients.
The inorganic elements (minerals) constitute only small potion of body weight.
Human body needs number of minerals for its functioning.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. excitability of cell membranes
neuromuscular transmission and muscle
contraction
releasing of transmitters from synapses
“second messenger”
stimulates secretory activity of exocrine
glands and releasing of hormones
contractility of myocardium
blood coagulation
4. 99% of skeletal calcium forms stable bone (not
exchangeable with the Ca in extracellular fluid)
1% is in the form of releasable pool of Ca
Balance of deposition and resorption
Osteoblasts – bone-forming cells responsible for
bone deposition
◦ Secrete type I collagen
◦ Differentiate into osteocytes
Osteoclasts – “bone-eating” cells that resorb the
previously formed bone

7. Free is physiologically active
regulated by the combined actions of
parathyroid hormone and calcitriol
Changes in plasma [albumin] can alter
total [calcium]
‘adjusted/corrected [calcium]’ for any
abnormality of [albumin
adjusted [calcium] mmol/l=
(measured [calcium] + 0.02(40 –
[albumin g/l]))
9. Stimulation
◦ PTH (not directly – through stimulation of osteoblasts)
◦ 1,25 Dihydrocholecalciferol (not directly – through
stimulation of osteoblasts)
◦ IL-6, IL-11
Inhibition
◦ Calcitonin (directly – receptors)
◦ Estrogens (by inhibiting production of certain
cytokines)
◦ TGF-β (tranforming growth factor)
◦ PGE2(prostaglandin)
10. Parathyroid glands
polypeptide of 84 amino acids
stimulus for secretion – low plasma calcium
function – to INCREASE plasma calcium
activation of osteoclasts – stimulates
absorption of Ca, P from bones
decreases excretion of Ca by kidneys
increases excretion of P by kidneys
stimulates conversion of vitamin D to
calcitriol (vitamin D hormon) in kidneys
11. Parafollicular cells of thyroid gland (C-cells)
peptide of 32 amino acids
stimulus for secretion – high plasma calcium (food
intake – gastrin, CCK, glucagon)
function – to DECREASE plasma calcium and
phosphates
inhibits osteolysis – decreases absorption of
Ca, P from bones
stimulates incorporation of Ca, P to bones
decreases absorption of Ca, P in kidneys
decreases the effect of PTH on bones – PTH
antagonist
12. Hypovitaminosis
RICKETS (rachitis)– children
OSTEOMALACIA - adults ( less calcium)
◦ Osteoporosis is decrease of bone mass (matrix and
minerals)
