Osteocalcin (OC) plays crucial roles in glucose homeostasis. OC level in the circulation appears to be associated with glucose and fat metabolism – Although still it remains controversial if it are the levels of total OC and/or undercarboxilated OC (ucOC) which present such association. The present study evaluated the levels of ucOC, total OC, leptin and insulin, in 226 overweight or obese (degree I and II) adult non-diabetic women, having levels of glucose (80–110 m...
