In the kidney the absorption of calcium in the proximal tubule is mediated largely through passive transport processes, in the distal tubule by hormone-sensitive transcellular movement, whereas the loop on Henle represents a hybrid situation. The ability of calcium-transporting cells to accommodate wide ranges of transcellular movement without disturbing cytosolic calcium-dependent processes suggests the presence of mechanisms to coordinate apical entry and basolateral efflux of calcium.
