Calcium absorption declines with age. Because 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH),D) is the major hormone controlling calcium absorption, changes in vitamin D metabolism may account for the malabsorption of aging. Serum levels of 1,25(OH),D have been reported to either decrease or remain unchanged wit
Osteoclast-mediated bone resorption is increased in response to 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH],D or calcitriol). Osteopetrosis is a metabolic bone disease characterized by defective, osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, which co-exists with elevated serum 1,25-(OH),D levels in some osteopetrotic
