Simulating pharmaceutical treatment effects on osteoporosis via a bone remodeling algorithm targeting hypermineralized sites [PDF]
Medical Engineering and Physics, Elsevier, 2020, 76, pp.56 - 68, 2021 Pharmaceutical treatments can slow bone degradation, thus reducing the fracture risk inherent in osteoporosis. Antiresorptive treatments block the over-activation of osteoclasts vs osteoblasts, but the resulting decrease in bone remodeling frequency may weaken bone structure over time, with no gain in bone volume.

Thiazolidinediones and bone fractures [PDF]
Journal of Diabetes Investigation, 2011 The topic of increased risk of bone fracture associated with thiazolidinediones (TZD) treatment first drew international attention when a higher rate of fractures in women with diabetes treated with rosiglitazone was reported in the A Diabetes Outcome Program Trial (ADOPT)1. Subsequently, a number of clinical trials and observational studies addressing

Cellular and molecular mediators of bone metastatic lesions [PDF]
, 2018 Bone is the preferential site of metastasis for breast and prostate tumor. Cancer cells establish a tight relationship with the host tissue, secreting factors that stimulate or inhibit bone cells, receiving signals generated from the bone remodeling ...

Investigation of the cellular response to bone fractures: evidence for flexoelectricity [PDF]
Scientific Reports volume 10, Article number: 254 (2020), 2020 The recent discovery of bone flexoelectricity (electrical polarization induced by strain gradient) suggests that flexoelectricity could have physiological effects in bones, and specifically near bone fractures, where flexoelectricity is theoretically highest. Here, we report a cytological study of the interaction between crack stress and bone cells. We

Effects of Risedronate in Runx2 Overexpressing Mice, an Animal Model for Evaluation of Treatment Effects on Bone Quality and Fractures [PDF]
, 2011 Young mice overexpressing Runx2 specifically in cells of the osteoblastic lineage failed to gain bone mass and exhibited a dramatic increase in bone resorption, leading to severe osteopenia and spontaneous vertebral fractures.

Increased sclerostin associated with stress fracture of the third metacarpal bone in the Thoroughbred Racehorse [PDF]
, 2018 Objectives: The exact aetiopathogenesis of microdamage induced long bone fractures remains unknown. These fractures are likely the result of inadequate bone remodeling in response to damage.
