Prebiotics, Bone and Mineral Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesCalcified Tissue International, 2017
Increasing interest in functional foods has driven discovery in the area of bioactive compounds. Prebiotics are non-digestible carbohydrate compounds that, when consumed, elicit health benefits and aid in the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases.

The Mineral–Collagen Interface in Bone [PDF]

open access: yesCalcified Tissue International, 2015
The interface between collagen and the mineral reinforcement phase, carbonated hydroxyapatite (cAp), is essential for bone's remarkable functionality as a biological composite material. The very small dimensions of the cAp phase and the disparate natures of the reinforcement and matrix are essential to the material's performance but also complicate ...

Bone mineral content after renal transplantation [PDF]

open access: green, 1984
Forearm bone mineral content (BMC), as evaluated by photonabsorption densitometry, was measured in 28 cadaver kidney donor recipients who entered the study 8 weeks postoperatively and were followed up for 18 months.

Bone Quality in CKD Patients: Current Concepts and Future Directions – Part I

open access: yesKidney Diseases, 2021
Background: There is ample evidence that patients with CKD have an increased risk of osteoporotic fractures. Bone fragility is not only influenced by low bone volume and mass but also by poor microarchitecture and tissue quality.

Bone Quality in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients: Current Concepts and Future Directions – Part II

open access: yesKidney Diseases, 2021
Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an increased risk of osteoporotic fractures, which is due not only to low bone volume and mass but also poor microarchitecture and tissue quality.

Bone remodeling: an operational process ensuring survival and bone mechanical competence

open access: yesBone Research, 2022
Bone remodeling replaces old and damaged bone with new bone through a sequence of cellular events occurring on the same surface without any change in bone shape.

A bone-specific adipogenesis pathway in fat-free mice defines key origins and adaptations of bone marrow adipocytes with age and disease

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Bone marrow adipocytes accumulate with age and in diverse disease states. However, their origins and adaptations in these conditions remain unclear, impairing our understanding of their context-specific endocrine functions and relationship with ...

Regular Supplementation With Resveratrol Improves Bone Mineral Density in Postmenopausal Women: A Randomized, Placebo‐Controlled Trial

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2020
Resveratrol, a naturally occurring polyphenol in red grapes and berries, can act as a phytoestrogen. It has been shown to improve both systemic and cerebral circulatory functions, possibly through activation of endothelial estrogen receptors.

Molecular Mechanisms of Parathyroid Disorders in Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHP) is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) that induces morbidity and mortality in patients. How CKD stimulates the parathyroid to increase parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion, gene expression and cell ...

Conditional loss of IKKα in Osterix + cells has no effect on bone but leads to age-related loss of peripheral fat

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
NF-κB has been reported to both promote and inhibit bone formation. To explore its role in osteolineage cells, we conditionally deleted IKKα, an upstream kinase required for non-canonical NF-κB activation, using Osterix (Osx)-Cre.
