Born in Paris to a grocer, Claude Oscar Monet moved at the age of five to Le Havre, a seaside town in northern France. The ocean and rugged coastline of the region had a profound affect on him at an early age, and he would often run away from school to go for walks along the cliffs and beaches.
Parathyroid hormone serves to increase blood concentrations of calcium. Mechanistically, parathyroid hormone preserves blood calcium by several major effects: 1  Stimulates production of the biologically-active form of vitamin D within the kidney.  Facilitates mobilization of calcium and phosphate from bone.
PTHPTH - parathyroid hormone raises the blood calcium level by: 1  breaking down the bone (where most of the body's calcium is stored) and causing calcium release. 2  increasing the body's ability to absorb calcium from food. 3  increasing the kidney's ability to hold on to calcium that would otherwise be lost in the urine.
