Abstract

The review concentrates on calcitropic hormones (parathormone, calcitonin and the active metabolite of vitamin D-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3) and their action on bone remodeling. Attention is drawn to mechanisms of their action on the bone cell, on their manifestations in histology of osseous tissue and clinical symptomatology in pathological conditions. Attention is also drawn to the possible therapeutic application of calcitropic hormones.
