Building Better Bones

Building Better Bones

The most effective bone-building treatment may turn out to be a modified form of parathyroid hormone. Researchers report that a peptide formed from the first 34 amino acids of parathyroid hormone is effective in preventing fractures in post-menopausal women. Previously, it was known that injections of parathyroid hormone, or its amino terminal fragment (parathyroid hormone 1-34), increased bone formation and bone mass, but their effects on fractures were unknown.
