Abstract
Laboratory mice are a crucial preclinical model system for investigating bone marrow adipocyte (BMAd)-bone and BMAd-hematopoiesis interactions. In this review, we evaluate the suitability of mice to model common human diseases related to osteopenia or hematopoietic disorders, point out consistencies and discrepancies among different studies, and provide insights into model selection. Species, age, sex, skeletal site, and treatment protocol should all be considered when designing future studies.Entities:
