Relationship of Testosterone and Osteocalcin Levels During Growth

Recent studies in mice have demonstrated that osteocalcin (OCN) regulates testosterone (T) production in males, but not in females. We hypothesized that this novel bone-testis axis may be most relevant during rapid skeletal growth to help maximize bone size. Thus, we measured serum T, total and unde...
