That Feeling in Your Bones.

Year: 2020

Type: article

Abstract: Research by geneticist Gerard Karsenty of Columbia University has revealed that our bones do much more than provide protection and support. A protein called osteocalcin-released as a hormone by the skeleton-has been linked to sugar levels, exercise, and male fertility. More recently, he has shown that osteocalcin triggers a "fight or flight" response to threat.
