In patient with renal disease, what form of vit. D will be decreased?
Is it 1,25 di- hydroxycholecalciferol, because kidney has 1 alfa-hydroxylasa ?
Any thoughts? Thanks!

yes as 1-alpha hydroxylase which is secreted by kidney converts ,25 hydroxycholecalciferol in to 1,25 di- hydroxycholecalciferol....which is the active form of vit D...

Dear Medicus
The answer is 1,25 di- hydroxycholecalciferol. This is because it is 1,25 di- hydroxycholecalciferol that is secteted by the kidney using 1 alfa-hydroxylase.
