Basic/Clinical Science Session
Advanced Systems to Maintain Mineral Balance
October 24, 2020 | 02:30 PM - 04:30 PM
Location: Simulive
Session Description
Calcium, phosphate, and magnesium are multivalent cations that are important for many biologic and cellular functions. The kidneys play a central role in the homeostasis of these electrolytes. When body stores of these ions decline significantly, gastrointestinal absorption, bone resorption, and renal tubular reabsorption increase to normalize their levels. This session discusses new mechanistic concepts in how calcium, phosphate, and magnesium are handled by the kidneys.
Learning Objective(s)
- Describe calcium homeostasis in tubular cells
- Characterize phosphate transport in the proximal tubule
- List the causes of renal hypomagnesemia
- Discuss mechanisms of magnesium homeostasis and the interplay of kidney and intestine
Learning Pathway(s)
- Bone and Mineral Metabolism
- Cell and Transport Physiology
