The interaction between skeletal aging and systemic aging has emerged as a frontier in the field of aging biology research.Recent studies have indicated that bones serve not only as mechanical support organs but also as endocrine organs that regulate systemic homeostasis through bone-derived factors.This review systematically elaborates the characteristics and mechanisms of skeletal aging, including tissue structural remodeling, cellular phenotypic changes, microenvironmental disruption, and molecular network disorders, etc.In aging organisms, bones interact with other organs to form a "bone-system aging axis", thereby promoting the occurrence and development of geriatric comorbidities.Accordingly, multi-target intervention strategies targeting the "bone-system aging axis" show the potential in decelerating the progression of systemic aging.In-depth research on the characteristic changes in inter-organ communication during the aging process of the body is not only conducive to facilitating the development of more comprehensive systemic anti-aging strategies, but also provides a new perspective for treating geriatric comorbidities and achieving healthy aging.
