Potential of renin-angiotensin system inhibition to improve metabolic bone disorders [PDF]
Metabolic bone disorder is an abnormality of bones indicated by reduced bone mass and high risk of fractures. Several lines of evidence have demonstrated that the local bone tissue renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is directly involved in bone metabolism ...

Simulating pharmaceutical treatment effects on osteoporosis via a bone remodeling algorithm targeting hypermineralized sites [PDF]
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]
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
