Target Information
Canine calcitonin (CALCA) is a key hormone involved in the regulation of calcium levels in dogs. It is primarily produced by the thyroid gland and acts to lower blood calcium concentrations by reducing the activity of osteoclasts, which are cells responsible for breaking down bone. This peptide hormone is also known for its analgesic effects and potential role in managing conditions like osteoporosis and hypercalcemia. In veterinary medicine, calcitonin is utilized to treat various skeletal disorders and to alleviate pain associated with bone diseases.
