1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3[1,25(OH)2D3] effects on bone resorption in organ culture and on 45Ca2+ efflux rates in bone cells were measured in presence of a calcium channel inhibitor, diltiazem. Though, diltiazem reduced the 45Ca release from mice calvaria it did not act at the same Ca compartment as 1,25(OH)2D3 to alter Ca2+ flux parameters. It therefore seems difficult to hypothesize a simple relationship between bone resorption and Ca2+ movements in bone cells.
