Effect of Leptin Deficiency on the Skeletal Response to Hindlimb Unloading in Adult Male Mice

Based on body weight, morbidly obese leptin-deficient ob/ob mice have less bone than expected, suggesting that leptin plays a role in the skeletal response to weight bearing. To evaluate this possibility, we compared the skeletal response of wild type (WT) and ob/ob mice to hindlimb unloading (HU)....
