摘要: Classical studies of vertebrate physiology have usually been confined to a given organ or cell type. The use mouse genetics has changed this approach and rejuvenated the concept whole-body study physiology. One physiological system that profoundly influenced by is skeletal Indeed, genetic approaches identified several unexpected organs affect bone These new links begun provide plausible explanation for evolutionary involvement hormones such as leptin with also revealed true endocrine capable regulating energy metabolism reproduction. Collectively, body work discussed below illustrates unconventional role in mammalian
