obsolete_parathyroid hormone measurement

Definitions
Is the quantification of parathyroid hormone, typically in blood. The protein encoded by this gene is a hormone secreted by parathyroid cells. This hormone elevates blood Ca2+ level by dissolving the salts in bone and preventing their renal excretion. Defects in this gene are a cause of familial isolated hypoparathyroidism (FIH) (RefSeq), High level s of parathyroid hormone are also used in the diagnostics for hypo and hyper calcemia, primary and secondary hyper parathyroidism. Low values are used in the diagnostics of hypoparathyroidism.
