Abstract
Most dairy cows exhibit different degrees of hypocalcaemia around calving because the gestational Ca requirements shift to the disproportionately high Ca requirements of lactation. Ca homeostasis is a robust system that effectively adapts to changes in Ca demand or supply. However, these adaptations often are not rapid enough to avoid hypocalcaemia. A delay in the reconfiguration of intestinal Ca absorption and bone resorption is probably the underlying cause of this transient hypocalcaemia. Several dietary factors that affect different aspects of Ca metabolism are known to reduce the incidence of milk fever. The present review describes the interactions between nutrition and Ca homeostasis using observations from cattle and extrapolations from other species and aims to quantitatively model the effects of the nutritional approaches that are used to induce dry cows into an early adaptation of Ca metabolism. The present model suggests that reducing dietary cation–anion difference (DCAD) increases Ca clearance from the blood by dietary induction of systemic acidosis, which results in hypercalciuria due to the loss of function of the renal Ca transient receptor potential vanilloid channel TRPV5. Alternatively, reducing the gastrointestinal availability of Ca by reducing dietary Ca or its nutritional availability will also induce the activation of Ca metabolism to compensate for basal blood Ca clearance. Our model of gastrointestinal Ca availability as well as blood Ca clearance in the transition dairy cow allowed us to conclude that the most common dietary strategies for milk fever prevention may have analogous modes of action that are based on the principle of metabolic adaptation before calving.

Abstract
The effects of normal, low and high plasma concentrations of 1,25-(OH)2vitamin D (1,25-(OH)2D) combined with normal, low and high concentrations of plasma calcium on renal calbindin-D28k and intestinal calbindin-D9k were examined in rats. We found that the expression of renal calbindin-D28k was significantly (P<0.05) increased by high levels of 1,25-(OH)2D, but was not affected by a 50% reduction in 1,25-(OH)2D. In contrast the intestinal calbindin-D9k responded significantly (P<0.005) to both high and low 1,25-(OH)2D levels. The effect of 1,25-(OH)2D on intestinal calbindin-D9k was modulated by plasma calcium concentrations. Increased plasma calcium levels did not affect the renal calbindin-D28k concentrations, but suppressed intestinal calbindin-D9k (P<0.05). The effect of calcium was not mediated by calciotropic hormones. This suggests the existence of a calcium-sensing mechanism in the proximal duodenum. It is concluded that intestinal calbindin-D9k is more sensitive than renal calbindin-D28k to changes in 1,25-(OH)2D and that intestinal calbindin-D9k in contrast to renal calbindin-D28k is sensitive to changes in plasma calcium concentrations.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether increasing the daily baseline of gut calcium can cause a gradual downregulation of the active intestinal transport of calcium via reduced parathyroid hormone (PTH) mediated activation of vitamin D, and to discuss why such a mechanism might prevent calcium oxalate rich stones. To demonstrate the importance of seasonal effects upon the evaluation of such data. METHODS Within an intensive 24 hour urine collection regimen, daily calcium supplementation (500 mg) was given to five stone formers for a 10 week period during a six month crossover study. In a further population of patients on follow up for previous renal stone disease, observations were made on 1066 24 hour urine samples collected over five years in respect of seasonal effects relevant to the interpretation of the study. RESULTS In the group of patients on calcium supplements the following results were found. During calcium supplementation, the proportion of urine calcium to oxalate was higher (increased calcium to oxalate molar ratio), the 24 hour urine product of calcium and oxalate did not rise, and urine oxalate was lower during the first six weeks of supplementation. Twenty four hour urine calcium was 10.2% higher than baseline in the final four weeks of the 10 weeks of supplementation. Twenty four hour urine phosphate was 11.4% lower during the first six weeks of supplementation, but then rose while the patients were still on supplementation; renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TmP/GFR) mirrored the urine phosphate changes inversely. PTH was higher after stopping supplementation, but 1,25-(OH)2-cholecalciferol changes were not detected. In the 1066 urine samples collected over five years the following results were found. Calcium and oxalate excretion correlated positively and not inversely. Urine calcium and phosphate excretion were 5.5% and 2.5% higher, respectively, in "light" months of the year compared with "dark" months. A post summer decline in both urine calcium and urine phosphate was relevant to the interpretation of the study. CONCLUSIONS Regular calcium supplementation does not raise the product of calcium and oxalate in urine and the proportion of oxalate to calcium is reduced. The underlying mechanisms of the changes seen in phosphate, calcium, and PTH and the observations on 1,25-(OH)2-cholecalciferol are not clear. Observed changes in phosphate could possibly be part of a calcium regulating feedback loop operating over a period of weeks. In evaluating these mechanisms background seasonal effects are important. It is possible that "programming" of the gut mucosa in terms of calcium transport is a major determinant of the relation between calcium and oxalate concentrations in urine and their relative abundance. Increased oral calcium, in association with a reduction of the relative proportion absorbed, may be pertinent to the prevention of calcium oxalate rich stones.

Abstract
Intraperitoneal injection of 1,25-(OH)2D3 4 micrograms/kg was given to 84 calcium- and vitamin D-repleted Wistar rats and samples of plasma, duodenal mucosa and renal tissue were taken after 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 96 hr (n = 12 at each time interval). Plasma-ionized Ca increased after 6 hr, reached a maximum after 24 hr and returned to the initial values after 96 hr. The concentrations of renal calbindin-D28k and intestinal calbindin-D9k did not increase until 48 hr after injection and remained elevated until 96 hr after. Therefore, significantly elevated concentrations of the cytosolic calbindin-D were found at a time with normal values of plasma Ca. The present data suggest that calbindin-D does not alone increase the transcellular Ca transport and, therefore, supports the view that calbindin-Ds may serve as Ca buffer proteins.

Abstract
The present investigation was conducted to examine the effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and parathyroid hormone related peptide (PTHrP) on renal calbindin-D28k in rats. Four groups of studies were performed: (1) parathyroidectomy (PTX) or a sham operation followed by infusion of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH]2D) or vehicle; (2) infusions of PTH(1-34), PTH(1-84), 1,25(OH)2D, or vehicle; (3) infusion of PTHrP(1-34), PTHrP (1-86), PTH(1-34), or vehicle; and (4) injections of calcium or vehicle. PTX reduced renal calbindin-D28k levels even when plasma concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D were kept constant by infusion of 1,25(OH)2D. Infusions of PTH(1-34), PTH(1-84), and 1,25(OH)2D all increased renal calbindin-D28k and plasma calcium, whereas PTHrP(1-34) and PTHrP(1-86) increased renal calbindin-D28k before an increase of plasma calcium took place. Hypercalcemia induced by the injection of calcium did not affect the levels of renal calbindin-D28k. The present data suggest that PTH and PTHrP exert a direct effect on renal calbindin-D28k, which is not mediated by changes of 1,25(OH)2D or calcium.

Abstract
1. Quantitative measurements of calbindin mRNA, calbindin protein and calcium uptake have been made in sectioned intestinal villi to determine the location and cellular characteristics of their expression in immature, point of lay and laying chickens. 2. Trace amounts of calbindin mRNA were detected by in situ hybridization in enterocytes located around the crypt-villus junction in jejunal tissue taken from immature and point of lay chickens. Large amounts of calbindin mRNA were detected in upper crypt and all villus enterocytes in tissue taken from laying chickens. Maximal levels of calbindin mRNA occurred in the basal third of the villus in laying chickens. 3. No calbindin was detected immunocytochemically in tissue taken from immature and point of lay chickens. Large amounts of calbindin were expressed in tissue taken from laying chickens. Maximal expression of calbindin in this case occurred in villus tip enterocytes. 4. Rapid uptake of calcium by tissue taken from laying chickens was twice that found in immature and point of lay birds. Calcium uptake in tissue taken from laying hens was also shown by quantitative autoradiography to take place maximally in villus tip enterocytes. 5. Regulation of calbindin gene expression and the cellular characteristics of calcium transport in laying chickens are discussed in terms of an adaptive response taking place in birds undergoing a daily loss of egg shell calcium.

Abstract
Quantitative methods of in situ hybridization and immunocytochemistry have been used to measure 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) induction of calbindin mRNA and calbindin protein expressed in jejunal enterocytes at all points along the crypt-villus axis over a 24 h period. Small amounts of calbindin mRNA detected in vitamin D3 deficient (D-deficient) chick intestine increased rapidly to maximal values 8 h after hormone injection. The magnitude of this response was inversely related to age of enterocyte measured separately by injecting tritiated thymidine into D-deficient and 1,25(OH)2D3-injected birds. Enterocytes of all ages expressed small amounts of calbindin 3 h after hormone injection. This amount of calbindin then increased up to 24 h after hormone injection. Maximal calbindin expression took place in basal villus enterocytes. Later decrease in the ability of upper villus enterocytes to express calbindin was associated with a similar fall in calbindin mRNA expression. Previously it was suggested that inefficient translation to calbindin mRNA might take place in basal villus enterocytes 48 h after vitamin D injection. Present work using 1,25 (OH)2D3 shows that calbindin expression takes place at a constant rate during this early stage of enterocyte development. Secondary events limiting higher rates of calbindin synthesis in upper crypt and basal villus enterocytes remain to be identified.

Abstract
Intestinal calcium-binding protein (calbindin-D9K) and renal calcium-binding protein (calbindin-D28K) levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assays in rats with short bowel syndrome induced by resection of about 85% of the small intestine. Rats with short bowel syndrome had significantly lower mucosal concentrations of calbindin-D9K (P less than 0.001) and a parallel reduction of both intestinal calcium absorption (P less than 0.001) and p-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (P less than 0.01) in spite of a general hypertrophy of the duodenal mucosa. Interestingly, the renal concentration of calbindin-D28K was significantly elevated (P less than 0.05) in rats with short bowel syndrome, a change apparently related to factors independent of vitamin D.

Abstract
Uterine concentrations of calbindin D 28K mRNA were measured in immature pullets and laying hens by dot-blot hybridization using a [32P]cRNA probe prepared from the calbindin cDNA. In immature pullets, estrogen increased the calbindin mRNA level and the plasma concentration of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3]. When testosterone was administered with estrogen there was a further increase in calbindin and its mRNA and an increase in the free 1,25-(OH)2D3 index calculated as the ratio of the molar concentrations of total 1,25-(OH)2D3 and vitamin D-binding protein (DBP). In laying hens the uterine concentration of calbindin mRNA was low 4 hr after ovulation, but increased most markedly 12 and 18 hr later, when shell calcification took place. Calbindin concentration remained unchanged during the different stages of egg formation but was much higher in laying hens than in pullets treated with sex steroids. Suppression of shell formation by premature expulsion of the egg decreased the concentrations of calbindin mRNA and uterine calbindin and the free 1,25-(OH)2D3 index in the plasma. A concomitant increase in calbindin and its mRNA was observed at resumption of shell formation in hens previously laying shell-less eggs. Withdrawal of food for 44 hr decreased the uterine concentration of calbindin and its mRNA without a change in the free 1,25-(OH)2D3 index in the blood. It is concluded that the synthesis of uterine calbindin is stimulated primarily at sexual maturity and at calcification of the first shell by transcriptional processes. The daily increase in calbindin mRNA associated with shell formation and the absence of a concomitant change in calbindin concentration suggest that post-transcriptional processes exist and that stimuli other than the sex steroid or the 1,25-(OH)2D3 are involved in regulation of calbindin synthesis in the uterus.

Abstract
Intestinal calcium-binding protein (CaBP) (molecular weight 10,000) was measured by a specific enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay in duodenal biopsies of 94 patients (aged 20-89 years). The patients were examined for complaints of upper abdominal dyspepsia, but no significant pathology was found by gastroduodenoscopy. The median amount of CaBP in duodenal biopsies was 6.0 micrograms/mg of cytosolic protein with a coefficient of variation of 0.6. No change in the amount of CaBP per mg of cytosolic protein was observed with age. A significant correlation (P less than 0.001) was found between the concentration of CaBP and s-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D). The amount of CaBP per mg of cytosolic protein did not correlate with immunoreactive parathyroid hormone in serum, and no relation between CaBP and the specific activity of alkaline phosphatase of the mucosal biopsies was found. The results of the present study show a wide variation in the amount of the 10 kDa CaBP in duodenal biopsies of humans and no change with age. Further, a correlation between s-1,25(OH)2D and CaBP was found.

Abstract
The biochemical properties of a chick pancreatic calcium binding protein (CaBP) and its response to vitamin D status and dietary calcium and phosphorus levels were studied and compared with the known vitamin D-dependent CaBPs present in the chick intestine and kidney. Pancreatic CaBP is homologous to the intestinal CaBP on the basis of immunological cross-reactivity, molecular size (28,200 Da), and charge properties (chromatographic mobility on DEAE-Sephadex in the presence of either EDTA or Ca2+). Pancreatic levels of CaBP respond to changes in vitamin D status and dietary Ca and P level in a fashion similar to the intestinal CaBP. Thus, in the absence of dietary vitamin D, both pancreatic and intestinal CaBPs were essentially undetectable, while in the presence of dietary vitamin D, a low dietary P (0.05%) elevated the pancreatic and intestinal CaBP 1.5X and 1.6X, respectively, compared to the CaBP levels present with normal dietary Ca and P (1.0%, 1.0%). The tissue levels of pancreatic CaBP (6-10 ng/mg protein) are about 0.2% of the intestine (5000 ng/mg protein) and 1% of the kidney CaBP (700 ng/mg protein). However, when corrections are made for the CaBP distribution in the tissues and expressed as CaBP concentration per CaBP-containing cells, the pancreatic CaBP level was 30% of the intestine and 10% of the kidney. Collectively, these results suggest that the chick pancreatic vitamin D-dependent CaBP is a homologous protein to the intestinal CaBP, both with regards to its relative cellular concentration as well as in its response to changing dietary levels of Ca and P.
