Osteocalcin: Not only protects bones, but also acts as the body's "invisible regulator"
When it comes to bone health, people often think of calcium and vitamin D, but overlook osteocalcin, the "versatile player". Secreted by osteoblasts, it is not only a "health sentinel" for bones, but also plays an important role in metabolism, brain function and other aspects.
Osteocalcin is involved in bone metabolism. It provides support for bones during bone formation and is released into the blood when old bones are broken down, reflecting the state of bone metabolism. What's more surprising is that it can travel to the pancreas, adipose tissue and brain with the blood to exert cross - boundary functions.
In terms of regulating blood sugar, it can stimulate insulin secretion and improve the sensitivity of cells to insulin. A low level of osteocalcin will increase the risk of diabetes. For cognition, it can promote the growth and connection of nerve cells, which is especially important for the development of the hippocampus, and may also improve cognitive ability. At the same time, it can promote the release of "happy hormones", and insufficient levels may be associated with emotional problems.
To keep osteocalcin active, it is necessary to exercise moderately, with at least 150 minutes of moderate - intensity weight - bearing exercise per week; take calcium properly, eat more calcium - rich foods and supplement vitamin D; and avoid smoking, excessive drinking and staying up late for a long time.
Osteocalcin lets us know that bone health is closely related to overall health. Taking care of bones is contributing to health.
Currently, Wuxi Donglin Sci & Tech Development Co.,Ltd. has developed Elisa products related to Osteocalcin. If you want to learn about the information of Elisa kits, you can directly visit the website:
