The availability of synthetic human parathyroid hormone (hPTH) fragments (Andreatta, Hartmann, Jöhl, Kamber, Maier, Riniker, Rittel & Sieber, 1973; Tregear, Van Rietschoten, Greene, Niall, Keutmann, Parsons, O'Riordan & Potts, 1974) has enabled the production of region specific antibodies and thus the development of region specific radioimmunoassays (RIA). This is particularly meaningful with respect to the heterogeneity of immunoreactive forms of PTH in the circulation (Arnaud, Goldsmith, Bordier, Sizemore, Larsen & Gilkinson, 1974). The peptides were synthesized according to the sequences proposed for the first 34 amino acids by Brewer, Fairwell, Ronan, Sizemore & Arnaud (1972) (referred to as 1–34 hPTH-B) and Niall, Sauer, Jacobs, Keutmann, Segre, O'Riordan, Aurbach & Potts (1974) (1–34 hPTH-N), which differ in positions 22, 28 and 30.

Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
