Calcitonin, rat is a 32-amino acid peptide hormone naturally produced by thyroid C cells in rats. Structurally similar to human and porcine calcitonins, it features a single disulfide bridge (Cys1-Cys7) and C-terminal amidation, critical for receptor binding and bioactivity. It regulates calcium homeostasis by inhibiting osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, reducing blood calcium levels, and promoting calcium deposition in bones.
