Abstract

The current commentary describes the possible existing link between metabolic diseases such as diabetes type 2 and the degenerative patterns of bones via the molecular mechanism that inhibits the mesenchymal stem cells’ differentiation into osteoblasts and osteocytes.

Keywords: Diabetes type 1-2, regenerative medicine, enteric nervous system (ENS), central nervous system (CNS), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), bone marrow (BM), osteoblasts, ageing, bone decay.
