Background
Osteocalcin is secreted solely by osteoblasts and thought to play a role in the body's metabolic regulation and is pro-osteoblastic, or bone-building, by nature.It is also implicated in bone mineralization and calcium ion homeostasis. Osteocalcin acts as a hormone in the body, causing beta cells in the pancreas to release more insulin, and at the same time directing fat cells to release the hormone adiponectin, which increases sensitivity to insulin.Osteocalcin acts on Leydig cells of the testis to stimulate testosterone biosynthesis and therefore affectmale fertility.Osteocalcin also acts on myocytes to promote energy availability and utilization and in this manner favors exercise capacity.
