Researchers have found that the skeleton, acting through the bone-derived hormone osteocalcin, exerts a powerful influence on prenatal brain development and cognitive functions such as learning, memory, anxiety and depression in adult mice. The researchers are from Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC). Findings from the mouse study could lead to new approaches to the prevention and treatment of neurologic disorders.

Bone Hormone Influences Brain Development and Cognition in Mice Model
Researchers have found that the skeleton, acting through the bone-derived hormone osteocalcin, exerts a powerful influence on prenatal brain development and cognitive functions such as learning, memory, anxiety and depression in adult mice. The researchers are from Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC). Findings from the mouse study could lead to new approaches to the prevention and treatment of neurologic disorders.
