Outline of Research at the Start |
Bone functions as an endocrine organ secreted “osteokines” to regulate the homestasis of extraosseous organs under pathological conditions. Although osteoporosis patients exhibited a higher risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the explicit mechanism of bone-brain axial regulation was elusive. Here, we aim to demonstrate the existence of bone-immunology-brain systems which may be involved in the AD progress, which paved a brand-new way for therapeutic intervention in AD patients with several osteoporosis.
