Effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 on the relative contributions of skeletal 45Ca and intestinal 40Ca to blood calcium in normal and thyroparathyroidectomized dogs.

The effects of gradually increasing doses of 1,25(OH)2D3 on plasma calcium and 45Ca radioactivity were studied in young dogs that had been extensively prelabelled with 45Ca. The effects of orally and intravenously administered 1,25(OH)2D3 were evaluated in normal and thyroparathyroidectomized dogs fed a normal diet. In normal dogs when 1,25(OH)2D3 increased the plasma calcium within the normal range (2.9-3.1 mmol/L) there was no significant increase in plasma 45Ca. In thyroparathyroidectomized dogs, oral or intravenous 1,25(OH)2D3 increased the low blood calcium to a normal level (1.8-2.9 mmol/L) without significantly increasing plasma 45Ca. In normal and thyroparathyroidectomized dogs, any 1,25(OH)2D3-induced increase in plasma calcium above the normal range was associated with a significant increase in 45Ca, indicating mobilization of bone calcium. Intravenous administration of 1,25(OH)2D3 in the normal or thyroparathyroidectomized dogs had a much larger effect than oral doses in mobilizing bone 45Ca when inducing a similar level of hypercalcemia. The major physiological effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 in the low or normal range of plasma calcium is on intestinal absorption of calcium without a significant effect on mobilizing bone calcium. The pharmacological effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 in vivo is to mobilize bone calcium as well as dietary calcium into blood.
