The PTH stimulates bone resorption of calcium and phosphate, yet the kidney reabsorbs calcium at the
DCT but decreases reabsorption at PCT. Also, 1,25 OH2 D3 increases absorption of Calcium and phosphate in the gut. This seems contradictory, can anyone explain what role phosphate has in bone homeostasis and what would cause it to be elevated in the blood?
