These cells express CYP27B1, the gene encoding for the enzyme responsible for the synthesis of the vitamin D hormonally active metabolite, calcitriol. Treatment with vitamin D(3) resulted in calcitriol production and induction of calcitriol target gene CYP24A1, indicating that these cells contain the full machinery for vitamin D metabolism and activity. Notably, treatment with calcitriol resulted in HCV inhibition.
Treatment with vitamin-D(3) resulted in calcitriol production and induction of calcitriol target gene CYP24A1, indicating that these cells contain the full machinery for vitamin-D metabolism and activity. Notably, treatment with calcitriol resulted in HCV inhibition. Collectively, these findings suggest that vitamin-D(3) has an anti-viral activity which is mediated by its active metabolite.
Such studies generally find that rates drop rapidly as vitamin D levels rise above 5-10 ng/mL (12-25 nmol/L), then more slowly until levels of 40 ng/mL (100 nmol/L) are reached.
How vitamin D works:
Vitamin D blocks the growth of cancer tumors. The active form of vitamin D, calcitriol, does most of the work. Calcitriol is made in the liver and in various organs affected by cancer.
We brought her in for dental work and the blood tests showed high creatinine and urea. Her phosperus levels are normal with elevated calcium.
She is showing no signs of sickness. Her appetite is great, lots of energy, etc. 4 years ago another blood test showed the same calcium levels but normal kidney function. My vet(s) are confused by the test results. All her other blood tests are normal (sodium, pot, protein, etc)
We are giving her subcutaneous fluids, a kidney diet and some probiotics.
parathyroid failure after 3 years post TT?
by LLV123, 4 minutes ago
Hi, I had TT 3 years ago, had 1 para removed accidentally, 1 re implanted, 2 were "fine" Had low Ca post TT for a few weeks, then ok. Now, 3 years later, had some muscle twitching, had low ionized Ca {1.09, 1.10, 1.14 after I had infusions for 3 days of IV CA. Serum was ok, not high but low 8's. My endo put me on Calcitriol and said para's are failing. NO WAY!!
Ever since she has this terrible feeling of electricity going through her body. She was told it is in connection with calcium intake levels. It is taking what appears to be an inordinate amount of time to balance whatever it is that is creating this presentation. Referrals to specialists to fix it are far off when a person is in such great discomfort. Is there anything that can be done in the meanwhile? Why does this happen? Is it common?
Calcitriol is currently available for dogs and cats in kidney failure and veterinarians order it through various compounding pharmacies. Calcitriol is compounded specifically for each pet according to their body weight and BUN-Creatinine levels. It is given to pets as a capsule by mouth once a day.
The tingling, burning sensation, the muscle spasms and so on. However, my blood test have shown normal calcium levels. I'm currently take my medication as prescribed, but I still have these symptoms. So I'm wondering if long term hypothyroidism can cause hypocalcemia and if a person could have hypocalcemia when calcium levels are within normal range on regular blood test? Or is there a special blood test which test for hypocalcemia?
drs keep saying magnesium and potassium low had nothing to do with thyroidectomy but how is this possible...niw that I got all three levels are back up but wondering every day if they may go back down is pure torture...ever heard of this???
I am taking 800-1000mg daily of Citracal, and Calcitriol .25 twice a day. They checked my PTH level and it was undetectable. I also had low phosphorus levels. I am worried about it happening again since I don't know why it happened. The only symptom I really had was menstrual-type cramping.
t want to do radiation because I have a little one at home. My calcium levels plummeted at the hospital that I needed to stay 4 nights. I was discharged with a level of 7.5. I went back the next day for follow up lab. My levels dropped again. They increased my calcium dosage to 3 pills of cal vit d 4 times a day and citricol 2 times a day. Will I ever be normal or regulated again? I want more children and I just feel with surgery I screwed myself.
I spent five days in the hospital, thanks to issues with my calcium levels. I could not get above 7.5. I was sent home with instructions to take calcium supplements, but still I have tingling and burning and muscle cramps. It is agony, especially at night. My surgery took three hours, and the only pain I had was the sore throat. Not sure if that was from the anesthesia or the surgery, but it lasted about four days. The incision isn't that painful, and I am still pulling off steri strips.
It really depends. . .I had my total thyroidectomy on 8/4 and had a calcium crash a few days later. After being in the hospital for a week on an IV calcium drip, I was released on massive amounts of calcitriol (Prescription vit. ) & calcium. I am now down to manageable levels of calcium (3 a day) and my doctor wants me off of the calcitriol. . .

Serum was ok, not high but low 8's. My endo put me on Calcitriol and said para's are failing. NO WAY!! I showed blood work "pre" TT and Ca was 8.4 so run lowish. Took Calcitriol for 3 days, asked endo if I could try OTC to raise it, didn't like the Calciriol...
