Parathyroid chief cells secretes parathormone.
Thyroid Gland
Thyroid Gland
parathormone
The parathyroid hormone. Also called as parathormone. This hormone is secreted by parathyroid glands.
They are called parathyroids and there are four. They are imbedded in the back quadrants of the thyroid gland. Parathyroids produce parathormone (PTH) which increases Calcium in the blood.
Parathormone is produced by parathyroid glands.
The parafollicular cells (also called C cells) secrete the hormone calcitonin. Calcitonin is a weak hormone that helps in the regulation of calcium in some animals. In humans, calcitonin has only a minor role in calcium regulation.
pineal gland
Thyroid gland produce thyroxine.It is in the neck.
Calcitocin works with parathormone to regulate the calcium level of body. Parathormone rises the calcium level and calcitonin reduces it.
A very high parathormone (PTH) level typically indicates hyperparathyroidism, a condition where the parathyroid glands produce excessive amounts of PTH. This can lead to elevated calcium levels in the blood, resulting in symptoms such as weakness, fatigue, kidney stones, and bone pain. It may be caused by a benign tumor on a parathyroid gland, or less commonly, by other underlying health issues. Proper diagnosis and management are essential to address the underlying cause and mitigate complications.
