Nuclear fuel cycle. The nuclear fuel cycle, also called nuclear fuel chain, is the progression of nuclear fuel through a series of differing stages.
Hormone responsiveness does appear if the osteoclasts are cultured in conditioned medium from osteoblasts that first have been exposed to PTH, suggesting an important role for osteoblasts in PTH-dependent bone resorption [citing references as early as 1986].
Parathyroid hormone is secreted by the parathyroid glands and is the most important regulator of calcium levels in the blood and within the bones. Alternative names for parathyroid hormone PTH; parathormone; parathyrin. Bones-Parathyroid hormone stimulates the release of calcium from large calcium stores in the bones into the bloodstream. 2  This increases bone destruction and decreases the formation of new bone.
