Bioactivity | Calcitonin, eel is the thyroid hormone peptide that contributes to the regulation of calcium homeostasis, widely used in the research of postmenopausal osteoporosis. |
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. However, Calcitonin, eel is inactive on the inhibition of prolactin release under thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) stimulated conditions[1]. |
