Tóm tắt

Protein synthesis was inhibited in the pancreas whereas it was enhanced in the kidney and intestine (jejunumileum) after a single injection of porcine calcitonin (20 MRC units/kg b.wt). The incorporation of [3H]leucine into total protein in the brain, heart, liver and stomach did not change after the hormone treatment.
