Catalog no. PH-TERIP-001Size 20mgMW (reference) 4,118 DaSequence Ser-Val-Ser-Glu-Ile-Gln-Leu-Met-His-Asn-Leu-Gly-Lys-His-Leu-Asn-Ser-Met-Glu-Arg-Val-Glu-Trp-Leu-Arg-Lys-Lys-Leu-Gln-Asp-Val-His-Asn-Phe
Description
Teriparatide, also known as PTH 1 to 34, is a synthetic peptide fragment of human parathyroid hormone. It contains the active 34 amino acid section of parathyroid hormone and is often connected to bone metabolism, calcium signaling, osteoblast activity, and skeletal remodeling.
This peptide is known for its role in parathyroid hormone receptor signaling. In simple terms, teriparatide is tied to the way bone cells communicate, rebuild, and respond to calcium balance. It is an important peptide in studies involving bone formation pathways, mineral balance, and the normal process of bone turnover.
Teriparatide is commonly discussed in relation to osteoblast signaling. Osteoblasts are the cells that help build bone. Because of this, PTH 1 to 34 is widely recognized in the peptide field for its connection to bone biology, calcium regulation, and endocrine signaling in the skeleton.
Mechanism of Action
Teriparatide, recombinant human PTH(1-34), activates PTH1R on osteoblasts, increasing cAMP/PKA signaling and stimulating bone formation.
