Scientific Background

Target data Calcitonin. Calcitonin is a peptide hormone that causes a rapid but short-lived drop in the level of calcium and phosphate in blood by promoting the incorporation of those ions in the bones. Calcitonin function is mediated by the calcitonin receptor/CALCR and the CALCR-RAMP2 (AMYR2) receptor complex (PubMed : 35324283).. Katacalcin. Katacalcin is a potent plasma calcium-lowering peptide.
