Marker of bone resorption in acute response to exogenous or endogenous parathyroid hormone

Abstract

Parathyroid hormone changes morphology of osteoclasts within minutes after its systemicn administration. A single-dose teriparatide injection as well as a stimulation of endogenous parathormone in healthy men results in an acute increase of the bone resorption marker CTX.
