Aromatase in adipose tissue exerts an osteoprotective function in male mice via phosphate regulation
2024-06-26
Abstract excerpt
Aromatase contributes to maintenance of bone mass because male patients with loss-of-function mutations of CYP19A1 exhibit bone loss. Treatment with aromatase inhibitor also causes bone loss in men and post-menopausal women, suggesting that part of the anabolic effect of testosterone in men is dependent on estradiol (E2) biosynthesized by aromatase in non-gonadal tissues. It remains unclear how locally biosynthes...
