Deskripsi

Graphical AbstractUro-A, which is a metabolite of intestinal flora and mainly produced from pomegranates and some nuts, suppresses osteoclast formation and bone resorption by activating autophagy. Uro-A upregulated the expression of Beclin 1 and LC3 and modulated bone homeostasis 4 in BMMs, thus resulting in decreased osteoclast-related markers and bone loss.
