Question Answer Article
The body's source of phosphorus is the diet. What mechanisms enable P absorption across the gut?
  • Passive Diffusion
  • Vitamin D mediated Active Tranport
Answer article
Which hormones affect Phosphorus Homeostasis and how?
  • Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)
    • Mobilises phosphorus from bone, acting to increase plasma concentration of P
    • Increases phosphorus loss in the urine and saliva, acting to decrease plasma concentration

So ultimately, PTH acts to remove phosphorus from the body entirely.

  • Calcitriol
    • Increases phosphorus absorbtion from the intestines
