Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a key hormone responsible for regulation of calcium homeostasis in the body. Since the main body calcium depot is bone tissue, PTH has a decisive effect on its homeostasis. In this case, the hormone can activate both bone formation and resorption. Thus, PTH can ensure the conjugation of anabolic and catabolic processes, which is necessary for the renewal of bone tissue, which is had to function under constant mechanical stress. At the same time, the use of PTH in medical practice is rather small, despite its high potential as a basis for the treatment of various pathologies associated with impaired bone homeostasis. Presented review, describes the intracellular signaling cascades and molecular mechanisms that underlie the action of PTH on bone tissue cells, and intracellular signaling cascades are described. A separate section examines the cellular mechanisms of the action of PTH on bone homeostasis, discusses how the effect of the hormone on different types of cells provides an interface between the processes of synthesis and resorption. In addition, the review examines diseases associated with impaired bone homeostasis, as well as the role of PTH and impaired signaling in their etiology.
