Abstract Background and Aims  Intestinal calcium absorption from the diet plays important role in maintaining calcium homeostasis in the body. Estrogen exerts wide physiological and pathological effects in the human. Previous studies have shown that estrogen is involved in the intestinal calcium absorption. In this study, we made investigation on the mechanism of estrogen action on duodenal calcium absorption. Methods  The experiments were performed in mice, human, and human duodenal epithelial cells, SCBN cells. Murine duodenal calcium absorption was measured by using single pass perfusion of the duodenum in vivo. The calcium absorption of SCBN cells was evaluated by calcium imaging system. The expression of calcium transport proteins, transient receptor potential cation channel (TRPV6) and plasma membrane calcium pump (PMCA1b), in the duodenum or SCBN cells were analyzed by western blot. Results  The duodenal calcium absorption in ovariectomized mice was significantly decreased, compared with control female mice, which returned to control level after 17β-estradiol replacement treatment. Estrogen regulated the expressions of TRPV6 and PMCA1b in murine and human duodenal mucosae and SCBN cells. The further results from SCBN cells showed that 17β-estradiol regulated calcium influx through the respective effects of estrogen receptor (ER) ɑ and β on TRPV6 and PMCA1b. Conclusion  Estrogen regulates duodenal calcium absorption through differential role of ERɑ and ERβ on duodenal epithelial cellular TRPV6 and PMCA1b. The study further elucidates the mechanism of estrogen on the regulation of intestinal calcium absorption.

Calcium, the most abundant cation in the human body, is involved in organizing the bone and teeth and is a critical cation in both the extracellular and intracellular spaces [1]. Calcium balance is tightly regulated by the concerted action of calcium absorption in the intestine, reabsorption in the kidney, and exchange from the bone, to maintain serum calcium within a narrow range. Dietary intake is the only source by which
