Background

Rat intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) is an 84 amino acid polypeptide produced by the parathyroid gland with its biological activity residing in the N-terminal region of the peptide. PTH plays an important role in maintaining the concentration of ionized calcium within the limits needed to achieve normal metabolic functions. When serum calcium levels are decreased the parathyroid gland increases secretion of the hormone which results in increased mobilization of calcium from skeletal reserves into the circulation. When levels of serum calcium are increased the secretion of PTH is reduced.
