Abstract

Osteocalcin is a bone matrix noncollagen protein which is one of the most abundant secretory products of osteoblasts. Resent studies have demonstrated that osteocalcin is not only a specific biochemical marker of bone turnover, but also involved in the regulation of energy metabolism. Further studies in the pathophysiological functions of osteocalcin might contribute to the treatment of obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. Key words: Osteocalcin; Diabetes mellitus; Glucose-lipid metabolism
