The Role of Hormones in the Regulation of Bone Turnover and Eggshell Calcification
Abstract
Birds, particularly chickens and Japanese quail, have made an important contribution to our understanding of bone and calcium (Ca) metabolism in vertebrate species, including humans. This chapter reviews and updates actions of classical bone- and Ca-regulating factors, including parathyroid hormone, calcitonin, and their related peptides, PTHrP, PLP, CGRP, and amylin. The important roles of the vitamin D system, gonadal steroids, and paracrine...
