What is Parathyroid hormone-related protein (1-36)?

Parathyroid hormone-related protein (1-36) is an N-terminal fragment that activates the same receptor family as PTH. It has been studied as a potential bone-anabolic peptide in preclinical osteoporosis and osteoblast models.

Key Benefits & Mechanisms

stimulates osteoblast signaling

supports bone formation research

potential anabolic lead

Research Summary

Preclinical studies suggest N-terminal PTHrP fragments can promote bone formation and preserve bone mass. Human osteoporosis use is not established, so this remains an investigational peptide rather than a standard therapy.
