Background

Parathyroid hormone (PTH), also known as parathormone or parathyrin, is a critical peptide hormone that plays a vital role in calcium homeostasis within the human body. Secreted by the parathyroid glands, which are typically located behind the thyroid gland in the anterior neck, PTH is composed of 84 amino acids and is essential for maintaining serum calcium levels. The regulation of calcium is crucial not only for bone health but also for various physiological processes including muscle contraction, nerve function, and blood coagulation.Excessive secretion of PTH, often leading to hypercalcemia (elevated calcium levels) and associated symptoms such as kidney stones, osteoporosis, and neuropsychiatric disturbances. Conversely, insufficient PTH secretion can lead to hypocalcemia (low calcium levels), which may cause muscle cramps, spasms, and convulsions.
