Osteocalcin and serum insulin-like growth factor-1 as biochemical skeletal maturity indicators

Progress in Orthodontics, 2017
Background With change in concepts of growth determination methods, there is a surge in the measurement of biomarkers for appraisal of growth status. Osteocalcin is a bone-specific protein and was observed to parallel the normal growth curve.

Bioadhesive‐Integrated 3D‐Printed Multilayer Scaffolds Secure a Mechanically‐Stable Osteoimmune Niche for Enhanced Bone Augmentation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A 3D‑printed multilayer adhesive scaffold, firmly anchored to bone defects by simple finger pressing, suppresses micromotion and secures mechanical stability of the osteogenic niche. This stabilization likely contributes to the enhanced bone augmentation by fostering a pro‑regenerative mechano‐immune profile—characterized by M2‑like macrophage ...

Osteocalcin of maternal and embryonic origins synergize to establish homeostasis in offspring

EMBO Reports
Many physiological osteocalcin-regulated functions are affected in adult offspring of mothers experiencing unhealthy pregnancy. Furthermore, osteocalcin signaling during gestation influences cognition and adrenal steroidogenesis in adult mice.

Maternal Exercise Rescues Embryonic Osteogenesis Impaired due to POLG Mutation Through a Potential Apelin‐ATF4 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Maternal exercise (ME) increases apelin abundance across maternal and fetal tissues and is associated with improved fetal osteogenesis under POLG mutation‐induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Apelin‐APJ signaling is linked to enhanced mitochondrial function, Akt phosphorylation, and ATF4‐RUNX2 association, supporting coordinated fetal bone remodeling ...

Machine Learning‐Driven Design of Multicomponent Bone Inorganic Matrix Mimicking Scaffolds for Osteogenesis Enhanced by Neurogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of development of experimental datasets and algorithm models, screening and preparation of the scaffolds and their applications in vivo. ABSTRACT Bone defects require materials with osteogenic, neurogenic, and angiogenic activity, yet designing such materials within high‐dimensional compositional spaces remains challenging. Here,

Serum osteocalcin and bone mineral density in postmenopausal women [PDF]

Universa Medicina, 2011
Since high bone turnover is associated with decreased bone mass, biochemical markers of bone remodeling, such as serum osteocalcin, may be used to assess osteoporosis and to predict fractures in elderly women, particulary those involving trabecular bone,

Matrix Stiffness Orchestrates Mesenchymal Stem Cell Lineage Commitment Toward Osteogenesis and Adipogenesis Through the PIEZO1/SP1/STC2 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Matrix stiffness directs mesenchymal stem cell lineage commitment through PIEZO1‐dependent activation of the SP1/STC2 pathway. Stiff matrices favor osteogenesis and suppress adipogenesis, whereas the loss of PIEZO1 function impairs early bone formation. STC2 retains lineage‐regulatory activity even when PIEZO1 is inactive.

Sequential Regulation of Neurovascular Bone Regeneration in Large Bone Defects Using Black Phosphorus‐Europium Nanosheet Integrated TPMS Biomimetic Scaffold with Photo‐Controlled Ion Release

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TPBE scaffolds, in conjunction with mild photothermal effects, effectively activate the PI3K/Akt signaling cascade, thereby promoting early neuronal differentiation and neurite growth. Short‐term (12 W) in vivo implantation studies revealed no significant pathological damage to major organs, providing preliminary evidence of the material's excellent ...
