Definitions

  • extracellular Ca 2+ In mammals, extracellular Ca 2+ is under rigid homeostatic control with the serum calcium concentration strictly maintained at a concentration of approximately 1.1 to 1.3 mM in a healthy mammal.
  • the extracellular Ca 2+ homeostasis depends on integrated regulation of Ca 2+ fluxes with respect to the intestine, kidneys and bone.
  • the extracellular Ca 2+ regulates various processes such as blood coagulation, nerve and muscle excitability, and normal bone homeostasis.
  • the Ca 2+ serum concentration decreases by 50% tetania occurs, and when the Ca 2+ serum concentration increases by 50% consciousness is clouded, in both instances a potentially life threatening circumstance.
