Bioactivity | Calcitonin, eel TFA is the thyroid hormone peptide that contributes to the regulation of calcium homeostasis, widely used in the research of postmenopausal osteoporosis[1]. | ||||||
Invitro | Calcitonin, eel effectively induces a concentration-dependent stimulation of phosphoinositide hydrolysis and stimulates prolactin release compared to salmon calcitonin in cultured anterior pituitary cells[1].Calcitonin, eel is inactive on the inhibition of prolactin release under thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) stimulated conditions[1]. | ||||||
