Calcitonin values in pseudohypoparathyroidism [PDF]
Pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1A is a rare endocrine disorder caused by GNAS mutation and the resulting hormone resistance at the receptor level, i.e. the activation of the intracellular pathway of the Gs alpha subunit is not possible.

Thyroid hormone status within the physiological range affects bone mass and density in healthy men at the age of peak bone mass [PDF]
Context: The hormonal factors involved in the regulation of peak bone mass (PBM) in men have not been fully investigated. Apart from gonadal steroids and somatotropic hormones, thyroid hormones are known to affect bone maturation and homeostasis and are ...
