Calcium Transport by the Proximal Tubule

  • Chapter
Phosphate and Mineral Homeostasis

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 208))

Abstract

The proximal tubule contributes to renal handling of calcium by reabsorbing approximately 60% of the filtered quantity (Lassiter et al., 1963). Studies employing in vivo and in vitro perfusion of single proximal tubules have begun to provide some information about the transport mechanisms that contribute to recovery of filtered calcium by the proximal tubule.
