Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a single polypeptide of 84 amino acids. It is a critical hormone in the regulation of Ca2+ homeostasis, secreted by the parathyroid glands, which promote release of calcium from bone to extracellular fluid by activating osteoblasts and inhibiting osteoclasts, indirectly promote increased intestinal absorption of calcium, and promote renal tubular reabsorption of calcium and increased renal excretion of phosphates. It is a major regulator of bone metabolism. Secretion of parathyroid hormone increases when the level of calcium in the extracellular fluid is low. The amino terminal (1-34) fragment of parathyroid hormone, called PTH (1-34) reproduces all the activity of the full length mature hormone and has been used therapeutically for treatment of osteoporosis.
