Model of neuromedin U signaling in the regulation of bone formation. As a central regulator of a leptin-dependent regulation
of bone mass, neuromedin U acts in the central nervous system downstream of leptin. Efferent sympathetic signaling through
the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) affects the molecular clock in bone to regulate bone remodeling.
