Abstract
Human calcitonin receptors have been cloned, sequenced and expressed by recombinant means. The receptors and antibodies thereto may be used in screening systems to identify agonists and antagonists of human calcitonin receptors, thereby providing means for treating and preventing abnormal bone resorption, as well as in methods of diagnosis.
