Description

General description

Synthetic, human calcitonin. A 32 amino acid peptide that is shown to stimulate bone formation and inhibit bone resorption.

Calcitonin is a single-chain peptide hormone of 32 amino acid residues with a disulfide bridge between cysteines at positions 1 and 7. It is produced in the parafollicular C cells of the thyroid gland and acts to stimulate bone formation by osteoblasts and inhibits bone resorption. Part of the effect of calcitonin appears to be mediated through increasing cAMP concentrations in osteoclasts.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Hypocalcemic hormone produced by the parafollicular C cells of the thyroid or by the ultimobranchial bodies of nonmammalian vertebrates. Decreases blood calcium and phosphate due to inhibition of resorption by osteoblasts and osteocytes.

Preparation Note

Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-20°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 1 month at -20°C.

Other Notes

32 amino acid polypeptide, 8 of which are conserved across all species.
