Calcitonin is a hormone produced by the C cells (also known as parafollicular cells) in the thyroid gland. Its main function is to regulate the levels of calcium and phosphate in the blood. Calcitonin works by inhibiting the activity of osteoclasts, which are cells that break down bone tissue and release calcium and phosphate into the bloodstream. This leads to a decrease in the amount of calcium and phosphate in the blood.
Calcitonin is released in response to high levels of calcium in the blood, and it acts to reduce these levels by increasing the excretion of calcium by the kidneys and inhibiting the absorption of calcium by the intestines. It also promotes the storage of calcium in the bones, which helps to maintain their strength and density.
Calcitonin may be used therapeutically to treat conditions such as osteoporosis and hypercalcemia (high levels of calcium in the blood) or even diagnostically as a marker for tumors in medullary thyroid cancer.
This product has a disulfide bond between Cys1-Cys7 and is available as a 0.5mg vial.
