A Novel Reactive Oxygen Species‐Responsive Bone‐Targeted Nanoplatform Based on Cloperastine Attenuates Ovariectomy‐Induced Bone Loss by Inhibiting Osteoclast Oxidative Phosphorylation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cloperastine suppresses osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting PGC1β‐mediated oxidative phosphorylation. Its incorporation into a ROS‐responsive, Asp8‐modified nanoplatform enhances skeletal accumulation. The resulting Clo/Asp8‐PMK‐MCs combine cloperastine‐mediated antiresorptive activity with carrier‐mediated osteogenic activity to attenuate OVX‐induced ...

Bone status and aortic calcifications in chondrocalcinosis patients

Romanian Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2020
Aim: We aimed to examine the association between several circulating bone turnover markers [ osteocalcin (OC), osteoprotegerin (OPG), beta-CrossLaps (β-CTx)], hip and spine bone mineral density (BMD) and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) in patients ...

Aortic valve disease: Novel animal models for advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

The relationship between osteocalcin levels and sexual stages of puberty in male children

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2000
Osteocalcin is a specific and reliable marker which increases with rapid bone turnover and gives data about bone metabolism. The pubertal growth spurt is also known as a good example of rapid bone turnover.

Sheep Horn Development Revealed by Multi‐Tissue and Cross‐Species Transcriptomic Analysis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multi‐tissue and cross‐species transcriptomics with allele‐specific expression show sheep horns are a composite organ integrating epidermal and osteogenic programs. Conserved horn gene modules and cis‐regulatory variation fine‐tune expression networks underlying horn development and size (small scurs vs. large spiral horns).

T cells, the Next Big Target in Axial Spondyloarthritis?

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by complex immune dysregulation, with T cells playing a central role in its pathogenesis. In this review, we synthesize current knowledge on diverse T cell subsets in axSpA, their pathogenic mechanisms, and emerging therapeutic strategies targeting these cells. We highlight

Dual Effects of β‐TrCP2 Deletion in Bone Homeostasis: Suppression of Osteoclastogenesis and Enhancement of Osteoblast Activity

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives To elucidate role of beta‐transducin repeat‐containing protein 2 (β‐TrCP2) in bone homeostasis for its potential as a therapeutic target for osteoporosis. Methods The role of β‐TrCP2 in bone phenotypes was investigated using systemic β‐TrCP1KO and β‐TrCP2KO mice, along with myeloid‐specific conditional β‐TrCP2KO (β‐TrCP2ΔM) mice.
