Impaired fracture healing with high non-union rates remains irreversible after traumatic brain injury in leptin-deficient mice

Patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and long-bone fractures can show increased callus formation. This effect has already been reproduced in wild-type (wt) mice. However, the mechanisms remain poorly understood. Leptin is significantly increased following TBI, while its role in bone healing re...
