Abstract:The body has evolved effective homeostatic mechanisms to maintain free levels of Ca+2 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D] within narrow physiological ranges. The literature documents critical contributions of PTH to this homeostatic regulation. We developed a mechanistic mathematical model documenting an important contribution from homeostatic regulation of 24-hydroxylase activity. Data on vitamin D (VitD) metabolite levels were obtained from a clinical trial conducted in healthy participants with baselin… Show more
