Elcatonin is a Calcitonin
derivative which is transformed from eel´s
calcitonin by changing the S-S bond into the stable
C-N bond. It inhibits the absorption and autolysis
of bones, thus leads to blood calcium descending.
In addition, it inhibits the bone salts dissolving
and transferring and promotes the excretion of
calcium and phosphorus in urine. Meanwhile, it
inhibits renal tubules reabsorbing calcium, phosphorus
and sodium and keeps blood calcium at normal level.
It is mainly used for remitting or eliminating
the pain caused by Osteoporosis.
