Cortical bone maturation in mice requires SOCS3 suppression of gp130/STAT3 signalling in osteocytes

Bone strength is determined by its dense cortical shell, generated by unknown mechanisms. Here we use the Dmp1Cre:Socs3f/f mouse, with delayed cortical bone consolidation, to characterise cortical maturation and identify control signals. We show that cortical maturation requires a reduction in corti...
