The important function of asthi dhatu is providing structure and support to the body.It also nourishes the successor bone marrow tissue (majja dhatu).[Su. Sa. Sutra Sthana 15/5]

In addition, contemporary physiology states that bone tissue carries out following functions too.

In addition, contemporary physiology states that bone tissue carries out the following functions too.

Mechanical:

• Protection : It protect internal organs

• Movement: facilitate movement

• Hearing: Facilitate hearing through sound transduction

Synthesis:

The cancellous part of bone contains bone marrow. It produces blood cells including red blood cells, platelets and white blood cells. This process is called as hematopoiesis.

Metabolism:

The bone tissue ~~regulatesacid~~-base balance, ~~store~~ calcium and fat cells. It acts as endocrine organ by controlling the phosphate metabolism. It ~~releasesfibroblast~~ growth factor – 23 (FGF-23), which acts on kidneys to reduce phosphate reabsorption. The bone cells also release a hormone called osteocalcin. This contributes to the regulation of blood sugar (glucose) and fat deposition. Osteocalcin increases both ~~the~~ insulin secretion and sensitivity, in addition to boosting the number of insulin-producing cells and reducing stores of fat.
