Greater lean tissue and skeletal muscle mass are associated with higher bone mineral content in children

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2010
Background To compare the relationship of skeletal muscle mass with bone mineral content in an ethnically diverse group of 6 to 18 year old boys and girls. Methods 175 healthy children (103 boys; 72 girls) had assessments of body mass, height, and Tanner

Bone Autofluorescence and Mineral Content [PDF]

Nature, 1965
WHEN ground bone sections are examined microscopically using an ultra-violet light source, some of the osteons autofluoresce with less intensity than others. By reference to tetracycline-marked osteons, it can be shown that the less-fluorescent osteons are those most recently formed.

Effect of Gradual Demineralization on the Mineral Fraction and Mechanical Properties of Cortical Bone

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2009
Bone is often regarded as a composite material consisting of hydroxyapatite (HAp-like) mineral particles, organic matrix (mostly Type I collagen) and water phases in microscopic scale.

Site specific increase in heterogeneity of trabecular bone tissue mineral during oestrogen deficiency [PDF]

European Cells & Materials, 2011
Although osteoporosis reduces overall bone mass causing bone fragility, recent studies report that the remaining bone tissue is significantly stiffer.

Relationship between the heterogeneity in mechanical properties, bone density and composition parameters of cortical bone to design and develop bone scaffolds and implants: Analysis of bone microstructure

Results in Engineering
Bone is heterogeneous and anisotropic because its mechanical characteristics vary by anatomic location and loading direction. Previous research established a correlation between bone density, mineral, organic content, and porosity and mechanical ...

Effects of a high fat diet on bone of growing rats. Correlations between visceral fat, adiponectin and bone mass density

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2008
In this study, we investigated some bone parameters (bone mineral content, bone mineral density, skeleton area) in growing rats fed with a high fat diet. Correlations between bone and body composition parameters are reported.

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Preterm Birth and Adolescent Bone Mineral Content [PDF]

American Journal of Perinatology, 2010
The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of preterm low birth weight on bone mineral content in adolescence. In 2007 to 2008, data on adolescents were obtained for study, including 16 females and 25 males who were born preterm (≤37 weeks' gestation) between October 1, 1989, and December 31, 1995, with a birth weight of less than 1850 g.
