Serratiopeptidase reduces the invasion of osteoblasts by Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Finding new strategies to counteract periprosthetic infection and implant failure is a main target in orthopedics. Staphylococcus aureus, the leading etiologic agent of orthopedic implant infections, is able to enter and kill osteoblasts, to stimulate ...

Osteogenic effects of simvastatin-loaded mesoporous titania thin films [PDF]
The use of statins in the field of bone regeneration is under current investigation due to the existing demand for non-toxic anabolic agents capable of enhancing bone formation in cases of substantial loss. Simvastatin, a coenzyme currently prescribed in

Carboxyl-modified single-wall carbon nanotubes improve bone tissue formation in vitro and repair in an in vivo rat model. [PDF]
The clinical management of bone defects caused by trauma or nonunion fractures remains a challenge in orthopedic practice due to the poor integration and biocompatibility properties of the scaffold or implant material. In the current work, the osteogenic

Research Progress of Paradoxical Bone Formation in Osteoporosis [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a common clinical bone disease caused by a variety of causes, it increases osteoclast production mainly by changing the inflammatory microenvironment of the body, the end result is increased bone resorption and decreased bone mass ...

Strontium potently inhibits mineralisation in bone-forming primary rat osteoblast cultures and reduces numbers of osteoclasts in mouse marrow cultures [PDF]
The basic mechanisms by which strontium ranelate acts on bone are still unclear. We show that an important action of strontium salts is to block calcification in cultures of osteoblasts, the bone-forming cells.

Accumulating evidence demonstrates that the risk of osteoporotic fractures increases in patients with diabetes mellitus. Thus, diabetes-induced bone fragility has recently been recognized as a diabetic complication. As the fracture risk is independent of

MicroRNA-21: An Emerging Player in Bone Diseases
MicroRNAs (MiRNAs) are small endogenous non-coding RNAs that bind to the 3′-untranslated region of target genes and promote their degradation or inhibit translation, thereby regulating gene expression. MiRNAs are ubiquitous in biology and are involved in

Osteoblast–osteoclast interactions [PDF]
Bone homeostasis depends on the resorption of bones by osteoclasts and formation of bones by the osteoblasts. Imbalance of this tightly coupled process can cause diseases such as osteoporosis. Thus, the mechanisms that regulate communication between osteoclasts and osteoblasts are critical to bone cell biology.

Acid-Induced Inflammatory Cytokines in Osteoblasts: A Guided Path to Osteolysis in Bone Metastasis
Bone metastasis (BM) is a dismal complication of cancer that frequently occurs in patients with advanced carcinomas and that often manifests as an osteolytic lesion.

TLR9 mediates S. aureus killing inside osteoblasts via induction of oxidative stress [PDF]
Background: Staphylococcus aureus is the principle causative pathogen of osteomyelitis and implant-associated bone infections. It is able to invade and to proliferate inside osteoblasts thus avoiding antibiotic therapy and the host immune system ...
