Regulation of bone health through physical exercise: Mechanisms and types

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Osteoporosis, characterized by bone mineral density reduction, bone mass loss, increased bone fragility, and propensity to fractures, is a common disease in older individuals and one of the most serious health problems worldwide.

Thyroid hormone status within the physiological range affects bone mass and density in healthy men at the age of peak bone mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Context: The hormonal factors involved in the regulation of peak bone mass (PBM) in men have not been fully investigated. Apart from gonadal steroids and somatotropic hormones, thyroid hormones are known to affect bone maturation and homeostasis and are ...

CALCIUM AND BONE MINERAL DENSITY – AN EXPLORATIVE LITERATURE REVIEW [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the “Ştefan cel Mare” University: Physical Education and Sport Section - The Science and Art of Movement, 2020
Nutrition plays an important role in maintaining bone mineral density. Thus, a balanced diet, which provides the daily requirement of vitamins and minerals, increases and maintains bone mineral density.

Loss of early B cell protein λ5 decreases bone mass and accelerates skeletal aging

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The early B cell protein λ5 is an essential component of the surrogate light chain and the preB cell receptor (preBCR), which is critical for optimal B cell development.

The National Osteoporosis Foundation’s position statement on peak bone mass development and lifestyle factors: a systematic review and implementation recommendations

open access: yesOsteoporosis International, 2016
Lifestyle choices influence 20–40 % of adult peak bone mass. Therefore, optimization of lifestyle factors known to influence peak bone mass and strength is an important strategy aimed at reducing risk of osteoporosis or low bone mass later in life.

Extrapancreatic actions of incretin-based therapies on bone in diabetes mellitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Diabetes mellitus is correlated with modifications in bone microarchitectural and mechanical strength, leading to increased bone fragility. The incretin hormones, with a classical effect to increase insulin secretion following food ingestion, are now

AgRP Neurons Regulate Bone Mass [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
The hypothalamus has been implicated in skeletal metabolism. Whether hunger-promoting neurons of the arcuate nucleus impact the bone is not known. We generated multiple lines of mice to affect AgRP neuronal circuit integrity. We found that mice with Ucp2 gene deletion, in which AgRP neuronal function was impaired, were osteopenic.

The mammalian lectin galectin-8 induces RANKL expression, osteoclastogenesis, and bone mass reduction in mice

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Skeletal integrity is maintained by the co-ordinated activity of osteoblasts, the bone-forming cells, and osteoclasts, the bone-resorbing cells. In this study, we show that mice overexpressing galectin-8, a secreted mammalian lectin of the galectins ...

High-Impact Mechanical Loading Increases Bone Material Strength in Postmenopausal Women-A 3-Month Intervention Study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Bone adapts to loading in several ways, including redistributing bone mass and altered geometry and microarchitecture. Because of previous methodological limitations, it is not known how the bone material strength is affected by mechanical loading in ...

The Effect of Tobacco Smoking on Bone Mass: An Overview of Pathophysiologic Mechanisms

open access: yesJournal of Osteoporosis, 2018
Recent evidence demonstrates that tobacco smoking causes an imbalance in bone turnover, leading to lower bone mass and making bone vulnerable to osteoporosis and fracture.
