Effect of Acute and Chronic Administration of Calcitonin on Serum Glucose in Patients with Paget's Disease of Bone*

Abstract: The effects of an acute injection of synthetic salmon calcitonin (sCT) and human CT (hCT) and of long term (4-month) administration of sCT on serum glucose levels were investigated in eight patients with Paget's disease of bone. The results obtained demonstrate a small but statistically significant rise in serum glucose after a single sc injection of synthetic hCT. However, the serum glucose level was not increased after 4 months of daily administration of synthetic sCT to our pagetic patients. Our results als… Show more

“…To answer this question, we observed the responses of plasma glucagon and catecholamines to exogenous CGRP because these substances are major physiological factors possessing hyperglycemic activity. On the other hand, CGRP, like calcitonin, is known to have a hypocalcemic action (19), and changes in plasma Ca 2+ levels have been reported to affect glucose metabolism (20). In this study, however, plasma glucagon levels were not responsible for the CGRP-induced hyperglycemia.…”

“…With respect to salmon calcitonin, In clinical settings, it was shown to reduce glucose clearance [119][120][121][122][123], most probably by inhibition of insulin secretion through binding to amylin receptors in brain, and by stimulation of glycogenolysis in skeletal muscle [116]. However, sCT in its injectable form has also been shown to reduce glucose and insulin levels in insulin-dependent diabetes [124].…”

“…DACRAs and amylin have been shown to be diabetogenic in acute studies in humans (Petralito et al, 1979;Gattereau et al, 1980;Passariello et al, 1981) and rats and is linked to plasma lactate (Young et al, 1991(Young et al, , 1995Gydesen et al, 2016;Hjuler et al, 2016). The diabetogenic effect is however transient and is no longer evident with continuous dosing (Giustina et al, 1985;Gydesen et al, 2016;Hjuler et al, 2016).…”
