Intestinal Absorption of Phosphate

  • Chapter
Calcium in Internal Medicine

Abstract

Phosphate homeostasis in humans is controlled by the balance between dietary intake, intestinal absorption, bone deposition/resorption, and renal excretion. This control is partly achieved by interacting endocrine regulatory loops that mainly involves parathyroid hormone (PTH) and vitamin D in the form of the biologically most active compound 1,25(OH)2D3. Phosphate homeostasis is primarily adjusted to provide sufficient amounts of inorganic phosphate (Pi) to a variety of body compartments ranging from the bone skeleton to cells in soft tissues. Pi is especially indispensable for both bone formation and cellular metabolism [1, 2].
