Altered Bone Metabolism in db/db Mice.

Nippon Ronen Igakkai Zasshi. Japanese Journal of Geriatrics, 1992
Bone and calcium metabolism was investigated in genetically obese, diabetic db/db mice and compared with that in a new hypoglycemic agent (AS-6) treated db/db mice and in their lean litter mates as controls. The 5-week-old db/db mice (serum Ca 9.88 +/- 0.22 mg/dl, glucose 258.6 +/- 13.3 mg/dl) were randomly divided into two groups.
