Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Analysis of Insertion Torque of Orthodontic Mini-Implants Depending on the System and the Morphological Substrate

open access: yesJournal of Functional Biomaterials
Orthodontic mini-implants are well-known anchorage devices and stand out as a particularly effective tool for ensuring maximum anchorage without relying on patient compliance.

Raman Spectroscopic Analysis to Detect Reduced Bone Quality after Sciatic Neurectomy in Mice

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Bone mineral density (BMD) is a commonly used diagnostic indicator for bone fracture risk in osteoporosis. Along with low BMD, bone fragility accounts for reduced bone quality in addition to low BMD, but there is no diagnostic method to directly assess ...

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

The Quality of Bone

open access: yesJournal of UOEH, 1997
The major determinant factors for the mechanical property of bone include the mass, structure and "quality" of bone. The quality indicates the factors which affect the strength of bone other than the mass and the structure. In the spinal cancellous bone, the power-law relationship has been observed and the bone strength increases in proportion to the ...

Bone quality and osteoporosis therapy [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Endocrinologia & Metabologia, 2010
Although BMD measured by DXA is a useful clinical tool for osteoporosis diagnosis, changes resulting from osteoporosis treatment only partially explain the observed reduction in fractures. Several other bone properties that influence its resistance to fractures and explain this discrepancy have been defined as "bone quality". Bone quality is determined

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Genetic architecture of bone quality variation in layer chickens revealed by a genome-wide association study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Skeletal problems in layer chickens are gaining attention due to animal welfare and economic losses in the egg industry. The genetic improvement of bone traits has been proposed as a potential solution to these issues; however, genetic architecture is ...

Inhibiting stearoyl‐CoA desaturase suppresses bone metastatic prostate cancer by modulating cellular stress, mTOR signaling, and DNA damage response

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.
