Accordingly, this study attempts to investigate trauma specific hormone changes in a murine trauma model and its influence on fracture healing. Thereunto 120 female wild type (WT) and leptin-deficient mice underwent either long bone fracture (Fx), traumatic brain injury (TBI), combined trauma (Combined), or neither of it and therefore served as controls (C). Blood samples were taken weekly after trauma and analyzed for insulin and OCN concentrations. Here, WT-mice with Fx and, moreover, with combined trauma showed a greater change in posttraumatic insulin and OCN levels than mice with TBI alone. In the case of leptin-deficiency, insulin changes were still increased after bony lesion, but the posttraumatic OCN was no longer trauma specific. Four weeks after trauma, hormone levels recovered to normal\/basal line level in both mouse strains. Thus, WT- and leptin-deficient mice show a trauma specific hyperinsulinaemic stress reaction leading to a reduction in OCN synthesis and release. In WT-mice, this causes a disinhibition and acceleration of fracture healing after combined trauma. In leptin-deficiency, posttraumatic OCN changes are no longer specific and fracture healing is impaired regardless of the preceding trauma.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms21239144","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,30]],"date-time":"2020-11-30T20:10:22Z","timestamp":1606767022000},"page":"9144","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Leptin Mediated Pathways Stabilize Posttraumatic Insulin and Osteocalcin Patterns after Long Bone Fracture and Concomitant Traumatic Brain Injury and Thus Influence Fracture Healing in a Combined Murine Trauma Model"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Anja","family":"Garbe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0435-9059","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Frank","family":"Graef","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6351-9959","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jessika","family":"Appelt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"},{"name":"Julius Wolff Institute for Biomechanics and Musculoskeletal Regeneration, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5719-0867","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Katharina","family":"Schmidt-Bleek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Julius Wolff Institute for Biomechanics and Musculoskeletal Regeneration, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Denise","family":"Jahn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"},{"name":"Julius Wolff Institute for Biomechanics and Musculoskeletal Regeneration, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tim","family":"L\u00fcnnemann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6529-6864","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Serafeim","family":"Tsitsilonis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5752-070X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ricarda","family":"Seemann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin, Corporate Member of Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin and Berlin Institute of Health, 13353 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"170","article-title":"Callus formation in severe brain injuries","volume":"25","author":"Calandriello","year":"1964","journal-title":"Bull.
