Background Information

Calcitonin is a peptide hormone consisting of 32 amino acids, primarily synthesized by the parafollicular cells (C cells) of the human thyroid gland. It plays a crucial role in regulating calcium levels in the blood by decreasing them. Calcitonin opposes the actions of parathyroid hormone, which increases blood calcium levels. Calcitonin works through a G protein-coupled receptor, known as the calcitonin receptor, which predominantly transmits signals via the cAMP and PLC/IP3 pathways. Its primary physiological effects are on osteoclasts and the tubular epithelium of kidneys.
