Total, free and ionic plasma levels of calcium as well as total plasma magnesium and inorganic phosphate levels were studied in the Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, in relation to salmon calcitonin injections. Plasma ion levels and endogenous levels of calcitonin were studied during environmentally induced hypercalcemia. It is concluded that no apparent relationship between calcitonin and calcium levels was found, and it is implied that calcitonin in fish may have a physiological function not related to blood calcium regulation.
研究了大西洋鳕鱼（Gadus morhua）注射鲑鱼降钙素后血浆中钙的总含量、游离钙含量、离子钙含量以及血浆镁和无机磷酸盐的总含量。在环境诱导的高钙血症期间，研究了血浆离子水平和降钙素的内源性水平。得出的结论是，未发现降钙素与钙水平之间存在明显关系，这意味着鱼类中的降钙素可能具有与血钙调节无关的生理功能。
