Calciotropic hormones and bone metabolism

  • Chapter
Clinical Endocrinology of Dogs and Cats

Abstract

Functionally the skeleton can be considered as two organs: (1) a supporting and protecting framework, and (2) a reservoir of minerals. Each has its own regulatory mechanism with consequences for skeletal integrity, involving the same cellular structures. Since most cellular activity occurs during skeletal growth, most derangements of skeletal integrity are observed during early life.
