Higher serum undercarboxylated osteocalcin and other bone turnover markers are associated with reduced diabetes risk and lower estradiol concentrations in older men

Context: In mice, undercarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC) modulates insulin secretion and sensitivity and increases testosterone (T) secretion from Leydig cells, but human data are lacking. We hypothesized that ucOC is associated with diabetes risk and modulates sex hormone concentrations in older men,...
