Interactions between Muscle and Bone—Where Physics Meets Biology
Open accessAbstract
Muscle and bone interact via physical forces and secreted osteokines and myokines. Physical forces are generated through gravity, locomotion, exercise, and external devices. Cells sense mechanical strain via adhesion molecules and translate it into biochemical responses, modulating the basic mechanisms of cellular biology such as lineage commitment, tissue formation, and maturation. This may result in the initiation of bone formation, muscle hypertrophy, and the enhanced production of extracellular matrix constituents, adhesion molecules, and cytoskeletal elements. Bone and muscle mass, resistance to strain, and the stiffness of matrix, cells, and tissues are enhanced, influencing fracture resistance and muscle power. This propagates a dynamic and continuous reciprocity of physicochemical interaction. Secreted growth and differentiation factors are important effectors of mutual interaction. The acute effects of exercise induce the secretion of exosomes with cargo molecules that are capable of mediating the endocrine effects between muscle, bone, and the organism. Long-term changes induce adaptations of the respective tissue secretome that maintain adequate homeostatic conditions. Lessons from unloading, microgravity, and disuse teach us that gratuitous tissue is removed or reorganized while immobility and inflammation trigger muscle and bone marrow fatty infiltration and propagate degenerative diseases such as sarcopenia and osteoporosis. Ongoing research will certainly find new therapeutic targets for prevention and treatment.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This review synthesizes how muscle and bone communicate through mechanical forces and secreted factors, integrating mechanobiology with endocrine/paracrine signaling. It argues that loading maintains musculoskeletal homeostasis while unloading and chronic inflammation drive fatty infiltration and degenerative diseases such as sarcopenia and osteoporosis.
Key findings
- Mechanical impacts ranging from 0.1 to 100 kPa are sensed by adhesion molecules, ion channels, the primary cilium, and other mechanotransduction machinery, leading to bone formation, muscle hypertrophy, and enhanced ECM/cytoskeletal stiffness, fracture resistance, and muscle power.
- Muscle and bone act as endocrine organs via myokines/osteokines and extracellular vesicles; exosomes are 50–150 nm and microvesicles 50–1000 nm (up to 10 µm), carrying miRNA, proteins, and organelles that may mediate exercise-induced cross-talk.
- Unloading causes rapid loss: a meta-analysis of 75 simulated microgravity studies found moderate muscle changes within 7–14 days and large effects on muscle force, mass, and peak power after 35 days; 90-day 6° head-down tilt bed rest decreased muscle fiber cross-sectional area by 26%, with increased SOST and myostatin that was reversible upon reloading.
- Chronic inflammation and disuse promote muscle fatty infiltration and bone marrow adipose expansion; in the EFFECT study of 40 female acute hip fracture patients and 55 controls, soft tissue parameters discriminated hip fractures as well as trabecular BMD plus cortical thickness.
Methods
- Narrative review; no primary experimental data are reported. It synthesizes mechanistic, developmental, clinical, imaging, and spaceflight/bed-rest literature.
- Cites specific studies and meta-analyses, including 75 simulated microgravity studies, a 90-day bed-rest study, the EFFECT cross-sectional study of 40 female hip fracture patients and 55 controls, and imaging methods such as DXA, BIA, CT, MRI/Dixon, and MRS.
- Main analysis is conceptual integration of mechanotransduction, secretome/extracellular vesicle biology, immune and endothelial interactions, epigenetics, and disease mechanisms.
Limitations
- The paper states that more research is needed to dissect molecular events, define the borders between beneficial and harmful mechanical stimuli, and understand exercise resistance in disease; it also says it cannot provide an in-depth review of any pathology.
- Evident from the text: as a narrative review, no systematic search strategy or risk-of-bias assessment is described, and conclusions rely on selected cited literature rather than new data.
- Evident from the text: many mechanistic claims derive from mouse or in vitro studies and are not fully validated in humans; imaging lacks guidelines for which parameters to quantify, and direct comparison of CT muscle density with MRI Dixon fat fraction has not been published.

![Figure 2 Mechanisms of mechanotransduction. Graphical summary of the current knowledge on the transduction of mechanical signals into a cellular response. A) Mechanical strain applied to the cell and (the resulting) fluid flow activate receptors and channels and their downstream signaling cascades. In a tissue context, strain is transmitted between cells via a series of adhesion molecules such as integrins, cadherins, and tight junctions. Transcription factors become nucleotropic and address DNA regulatory elements such as repressors, enhancers, and their specific DNA response elements. Adaptive transcription and translation are initiated and lead to changes in transcriptome, proteome, and especially the secretome to communicate with neighbors and distant tissues. The expression and secretion of extracellular matrix proteins as parts of the secretome are upregulated. As a consequence, the incoming forces and the resistive response to external forces are enhanced, and a new homeostasis situation is produced. Similarly, the production of proteins of the cytoskeleton is enhanced, the cytoskeleton is also becoming stiffer, and the contractile proteins generate even more active forces. B) Fluid flow is sensed by the primary cilium. The relevant structural features of a primary cilium are schematically depicted on the right side, while the signaling cascades and tools for mechanotransduction are depicted on the left side. Deflection of the cilium generates signaling [43,44]. Intraflagellar transport is a means of active transport of signaling peptides to and from the cell body. C) The constitutive secretory pathway and the regulated secretory pathway are schematically depicted. While the latter has not been demonstrated in muscle or bone, it is characteristic for truly endocrine cells and requires complex sorting and the intravesicular storage of preformed proteins that are extruded upon endocrine signals. The constitutive pathway requires characteristic secretory peptide sequences to be continuously released into the extracellular environment and subsequently the circulation. The release of vesicles upon exercise-related calcium flux into the cell has been demonstrated to be a candidate mechanism for the release of proteins and miRNAs.

“Similarly, the Hippo pathway has gained attention as an important pathway in mechanotransduction and skeletal physiology. Downstream YAP/TAZ regulation is in fact tightly involved in mechanosensing and mechanotransduction both in bone and muscle as well as in many other cells, especially endothelial cells (see Section 3.3).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
