Methods to measure calcitonin receptor activity, up-regulated in cell stress, apoptosis and autophagy

The expression of the calcitonin receptor (CT Receptor) is widespread throughout the life cycle of mammals and in many diseases, and in these contexts the functions of the common isoforms is largely unknown. The relatively recent development of anti-CT Receptor antibodies that bind separate epitopes on the CT a Receptor and CT b Receptor isoforms has advanced our knowledge and understanding of these events. CT Receptor at the protein level is...
