Calcitonin salmon, a calcium regulating hormone, is a dual-action amylin and calcitonin receptor agonist, could stimulate bone formation and inhibit bone resorption. Sequence: Cys-Ser-Asn-Leu-Ser-Thr-Cys-Val-Leu-Gly-Lys-Leu-Ser-Gln-Glu-Leu-His-Lys-Leu-Gln- Thr-Tyr-Pro-Arg-Thr-Asn-Thr-Gly-Ser-Gly-Thr-Pro-NH2(Disulfide bridge: Cys1-Cys7) . IC50 & Target: Amylin, Calcitonin receptor^[1]. In Vivo: Oral Calcitonin salmon treatment dose-dependently attenuates fasting and non-fasted hyperglycaemia during the intervention period. At the end of the study period, oral Calcitonin salmon treatment by dose decreases diabetic hyperglycaemia by ca.9 mM and reduces HbA1c levels by 1.7%. Furthermore, a pronounced reduction in glucose excursions is dose-dependently observed for oral Calcitonin salmon treatment during oral glucose tolerance test. In addition, oral Calcitonin salmon treatment sustains hyperinsulinaemia and attenuates hyperglucagonaemia and hypersecretion of total glucagon-like peptide-1 predominantly in the basal state. Lastly, oral Calcitonin salmon treatment dose-dependently improves pancreatic beta-cell function and beta-cell area at study end^[1].
