Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have shown that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a crucial regulator of energy homeostasis, plays important roles in osteoblast differentiation and mineralization. However, little is known about in vivo roles of osteoblastic AMPK in glucose metabolism and bone mass regulation in adult mice. Here, we used the inducible Cre system to control the onset of Ampk disruption after birth by removing...
