PY - 2022 T2 - Current Medical Diagnosis & Treatment 2022 AB - Parathyroid hormone (PTH), which is secreted by the parathyroid glands, increases osteoclastic activity in bone, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and stimulates the synthesis of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol by the kidney.
