Effect of Propolis on Bone Quality and Cortical Bone Thickness of Ovariectomized Female Wistar White Rats as A Model for Osteoporosis

Pharmaceutical Sciences and Research, 2021
Estrogen deficiency increases the rate of osteoporosis, especially in menopausal women, by altering the bone tissue microarchitecture. Propolis has compounds that could be used as an alternative therapy to treat estrogen deficiency and to protect against

[Gly²]-GLP-2, But Not Glucagon or [D-Ala²]-GLP-1, Controls Collagen Crosslinking in Murine Osteoblast Cultures

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Bone tissue is organized at the molecular level to resist fracture with the minimum of bone material. This implies that several modifications of the extracellular matrix, including enzymatic collagen crosslinking, take place.

Genome-wide association study for bone quality of ducks during the laying period [PDF]

Poultry Science
: The cage-rearing model of the modern poultry industry makes the bones of birds, especially egg-laying birds, more vulnerable to fracture, which poses serious damage to the health of birds. Research confirms that genetic material plays an important role

Age-related vessel calcification at distal extremities is a risk factor of osteoporosis

Journal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2014
We conducted a cohort study to investigate if the vessel calcifications (VCs) found in the distal extremities are an index of low bone mass at multiskeletal sites. A total of 332 healthy women aged 41–80 years were recruited for bone mineral content (BMC)

A Clinical Perspective on Advanced Developments in Bone Biopsy Assessment in Rare Bone Disorders

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Introduction: Bone biopsies have been obtained for many centuries and are one of the oldest known medical procedures in history. Despite the introduction of new noninvasive radiographic imaging techniques and genetic analyses, bone biopsies are still ...

Assessing Bone Quality of Spine on Children with Scoliosis Using Ultrasound Reflection FAI Method -- A Preliminary Study [PDF]

, 2021
Osteopenia is indicated as a common phenomenon in patients who have scoliosis. Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) has been used to assess skeletal status for decades, and recently ultrasound imaging using reflection signals from vertebra were as well applied to measure spinal curvatures on children with scoliosis. The objectives of this study are to develop
