A high-yield integrative topic bridging biochemistry and medicine. It links three hormones (PTH, calcitonin, vitamin D) governing calcium-phosphorus homeostasis with the molecular handling of iron (DMT1, ferroportin, transferrin, ferritin, hepcidin) and the trace elements copper and zinc. Expect questions on transport proteins, deficiency syndromes, and lab cut-offs. The adult body contains ~1–1.2 kg of calcium, o
