The mechanisms of the anabolic actions of androgens in bone.
Androgens (male sex hormones) are one of the few agents that increase bone formation. Androgens act by binding to a specific protein, the androgen receptor (AR). To understand exactly how androgens increase bone formation, we will study mice in which the
