Abstract
Obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes are related disorders of energy metabolism for which therapies are suboptimal. In this issue of Cell, Lee et al. (2007) demonstrate in mice that bone regulates the insulin/glucose axis and energy metabolism, providing a new framework for approaching common disorders of bioenergetics.
