Bones and adrenal organogenesis: how embryonic osteocalcin influences lifelong adrenal function
Osteocalcin is a hormone produced in bones by osteoblasts during bone formation. Numerous studies have demonstrated that adrenal gland–derived glucocorticoids inhibit osteocalcin production, which can ultimately cause deleterious bones loss.

Association between serum ferritin and osteocalcin as a potential mechanism explaining the iron-induced insulin resistance. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Increased iron stores are associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes, however, the mechanisms underlying these associations are poorly understood.

HOXA10 controls osteoblastogenesis by directly activating bone regulatory and phenotypic genes [PDF]
HOXA10 is necessary for embryonic patterning of skeletal elements, but its function in bone formation beyond this early developmental stage is unknown. Here we show that HOXA10 contributes to osteogenic lineage determination through activation of Runx2 ...

Osteocalcin—A Versatile Bone-Derived Hormone
Bone has long been regarded as a static organ, simply providing protection and support. However, this mindset has changed radically in recent years and bone is becoming increasingly recognized for its endocrine function of secreting several hormones ...

Osteocalcin, energy and glucose metabolism [PDF]
Osteocalcin is a bone matrix protein that has been associated with several hormonal actions on energy and glucose metabolism. Animal and experimental models have shown that osteocalcin is released into the bloodstream and exerts biological effects on ...

Osteocalcin regulates energy metabolism in an active undercarboxylated/uncarboxylated form. However, its role on the development of non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is still controversial.

Gpr158 mediates osteocalcin’s regulation of cognition
That osteocalcin (OCN) is necessary for hippocampal-dependent memory and to prevent anxiety-like behaviors raises novel questions. One question is to determine whether OCN is also sufficient to improve these behaviors in wild-type mice, when circulating ...
