New discovery announced by Johns Hopkins Orthopaedic researchers. Journal, Cell, July 23, 2010. Bone remodeling is a highly conserved & regulated process that controls calcium homeostasis within a very tight range and maintains the structural integrity of the skeleton. A study from Dr. Thomas Clemens' lab provides new support for the hypothesis that the insulin regulatory system mediates communication between metabolic control and bone remodeling.
