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 lysosome-to-nucleus signalling mechanism senses and regulates the lysosome via mTOR and TFEB

TL;DR: It is shown that the Transcription Factor EB (TFEB), a master regulator of lysosomal biogenesis, colocalizes with master growth regulator mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) on the lysOSomal membrane and the Rag GTPase complex is both necessary and sufficient to regulate starvation‐ and stress‐induced nuclear translocation of TFEB.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin Signaling in Osteoblasts Integrates Bone Remodeling and Energy Metabolism

TL;DR: It is shown here that insulin signaling in osteoblasts is necessary for whole-body glucose homeostasis because it increases osteocalcin activity, which promotes glucose metabolism in a bone resorption-dependent manner in mice and humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Osteocalcin differentially regulates β cell and adipocyte gene expression and affects the development of metabolic diseases in wild-type mice

TL;DR: It is shown that long-term treatment of WT mice with osteocalcin can significantly weaken the deleterious effect on body mass and glucose metabolism of gold thioglucose-induced hyperphagia and high-fat diet and suggest that osteocalin may be of value in the treatment of metabolic diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endocrine regulation of male fertility by the skeleton

TL;DR: It is shown that, in males, bone acts as a regulator of fertility, and the physiological repertoire of osteocalcin is expanded, providing the first evidence that the skeleton is an endocrine regulator of reproduction.
