Description

What is Tymlos (abaloparatide) for?

 

Tymlos (abaloparatide) is a human parathyroid hormone-related peptide [PTHrP(1-34)] analog indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture[1].

 

How does Tymlos (abaloparatide) work?

 

Abaloparatide is a PTHrP(1-34) analogue which acts as an agonist at the PTH1 receptor (PTH1R)1.

In bone, the PTH1R is expressed on the surface of osteoblasts[2], the cells that synthesize bone[3]. By attaching to these receptors abaloparatide activates important processes in target cells, which are expected to stimulate the increase of bone’s density and strength.
