of the parathyroid hormone (PTH) family (it is the N-terminal sequence of 34 amino acids of the endogenous human PTH) that promotes bone formation through its direct effect on osteoblasts, indirectly increasing calcium re-sorption by the tubules as well as phosphate excretion by the kidneys. It...
Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) increases renin release from isolated perfused kidneys, but its effects on renin in vivo are unknown. In vivo, PTHrP causes hypercalcemia, weight loss and polyuria, all of which may affect reni... DK Atchison,E Westrick,DL Szandzik,... - 《Faseb...
Parathyroid hormone, or PTH, is a peptide hormone produced and secreted by chief cells in the parathyroid gland which is located on the thyroid gland. The main function of this hormone is to regulate plasma levels of calcium through its effect on the bones, kidneys, and in...

PTH is the principal regulator of blood Ca concentration, acting primarily on bones and kidneys1,2. Biological actions of PTH are mediated via stimulation of the PTH type 1 receptor (PTHR1), a member of the class B family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). PTHR1 couples strongly to...
PTH modulates bone turnover by binding to the PTH/PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) type 1 receptor (PPR), a G-protein-coupled receptor highly expressed in bone and kidneys. Osteocytes, the most abundant cells in adult bone, also express PPR. However, the physiological relevance of PPR signaling ...
Concerning calcium balance, what happens to the kidneys, bones and intestine when the parathyroid hormone is released? Is the renin-angiotensin pathway same as the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone pathway? Which one of the following anterior pituitary hormones is a misma...
