Summary

This review explores how calcitropic hormones influence bone remodeling by regulating resorption and formation processes. Bone remodeling is a complex process that maintains skeletal integrity and calcium balance. The study suggests that these hormones interact with local factors such as growth factors and prostaglandins at the cellular and tissue levels. Disturbances in hormone activity may lead to imbalances in bone remodeling, contributing to diseases like osteoporosis. The authors emphasize the need to study multiple levels of skeletal organization to understand how systemic and local factors coordinate. The review highlights the importance of further research into the mechanisms of hormone action and their role in bone health.
