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.

Other Notes

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

Calcitonin is a thirty-two amino acid peptide that contains an N-terminal disulphide bridge and a C-terminal prolineamide residue. It is released from thyroid parafollicular C-cells and its direct actions on the osteoclast account for its physiological effects whether as a

This review reflects on the past, present, and future of translational research on calcitropic hormones and bone metabolism. Calcitonin (CT) and parathormone (PTH) are complementary hormones involved in the acquisition and maintenance of bone mass and regulation of calcium metabolism.
S Tanaka et al.
Cellular and molecular biology (Noisy-le-Grand, France), 52(3), 19-23 (2007-05-31)
Calcitonin is a calcium-regulating peptide hormone that acts directly on osteoclasts and suppresses their function. In this review we will focus on the downstream signaling pathways of calcitonin receptor regulating cytoskeletal organization of osteoclasts. We will also introduce the clinical
D Naot et al.
Bone, 43(5), 813-818 (2008-08-09)
The 'calcitonin family' is a group of peptide hormones that share structural similarities with calcitonin, and includes calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), amylin, adrenomedullin and adrenomedullin 2 (intermedin). These hormones are produced by different tissues, with calcitonin being produced in thyroid
