Determination of Dual Effects of Parathyroid Hormone on Skeletal Gene Expression in Vivo by Microarray and Network Analysis
10 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulates bone formation when injected daily but causes severe bone loss with continuous infusion. The mechanism of its paradoxical effects is still elusive. In this study, we compared changes in the gene expression profile in bone induced by intermittent or continuous treatment with three different PTH peptides, PTH-(1-34), -(1-31), and -(3-34), in Sprague-Dawley female rats....
