From the authors: “In conclusion, our data, together with published data, strongly support the conclusion that calcium signaling plays a vital role in regulating coupled bone formation. The complete mechanistic pathway involved in calcium-regulated coupled bone formation is an important future goal.”

This study is highlighted as one of June’s “best of the best” as part of the American Physiological Society’s APSselect program.
