In the current study, this issue was addressed by evaluating the effect of osteoporosis medications, such as the anabolic agent PTH [teriparatide (TPTD)] and the antiresorptive agents calcitonin [elcatonin (ECT)] and bisphosphonate [risedronate (RIS)], on bone metabolism as well as on glucose and lipid metabolism in spontaneously diabetic Torii (SDT) fatty rats, which are a model of type 2 DM (T2DM). Here, PTH is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
