Controls Bone Development; How thyroid-stimulating hormone affects the risk of osteoporosis

This month we explore studies on genes responsible for osteogenesis (bone development), the link between thyroid function and osteoporosis, and the life-saving benefits of walking. First, we will analyze new research that clarifies how certain bone cell precursors become bone-building cells. This discovery could point to new therapies for osteoporosis. Next, we’ll examine a review…
