Journal ArticleDOI

Endocrine Regulation of Energy Metabolism by the Skeleton

TL;DR: It is shown that mice lacking the protein tyrosine phosphatase OST-PTP are hypoglycemic and are protected from obesity and glucose intolerance because of an increase in beta-cell proliferation, insulin secretion, and insulin sensitivity, and in vivo osteocalcin can improve glucose tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI

A paradigm of integrative physiology, the crosstalk between bone and energy metabolisms

TL;DR: Bone can now be considered as a true endocrine organ secreting osteocalcin, a hormone pharmacologically active on glucose and fat metabolism which offers novel therapeutic targets in type 2 diabetes and osteoporosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Osteocalcin regulates murine and human fertility through a pancreas-bone-testis axis

TL;DR: Using mouse models, this study uncovers the existence of a second endocrine axis that is necessary for optimal male fertility in the mouse and suggests that osteocalcin modulates reproductive function in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Osteoid osteoma is an osteocalcinoma affecting glucose metabolism

TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that osteocalcin in humans affects blood glucose level and suggests that ostoid osteoma may be considered, at least in part, as an osteoccinoma.
