Ascorbic Acid Modulates Collagen Properties in Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteoporotic Bone: Insights into Chemical, Mechanical, and Biological Regulation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Osteoporosis from long‐term glucocorticoid (GIOP) use elevates susceptibility to fracture. This study shows GCs impair ascorbic acid (AA) metabolism in osteoblasts, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix integrity. AA enhanced collagen biochemical and mechanical properties and restored osteoblast and endothelial function. These findings underscore

Harnessing Advances in Bone Tissue Engineering for Design of Bone‐on‐Chip Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bone‐on‐chip (BoC) systems demonstrate significant potential as next‐generation models to study human (patho)physiology and evaluate new therapies. However, progress toward functional, human‐like BoCs has been hindered by the structural and functional complexity of bone. This perspective discusses how insights from bone tissue engineering can guide BoC

Strontium‐Containing Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles Stimulate Osteogenesis and Suppress Osteoclast Formation in Co‐Culture

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Spherical bioactive glass nanoparticles containing strontium inhibit osteoclast differentiation and activity, but promote osteoblast activity in osteoblast‐osteoclast in vitro co‐culture. The nanoparticles could be used for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Strategies to Improve the Lipophilicity of Hydrophilic Macromolecular Drugs

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic macromolecular drugs can be successfully lipidized by covalent attachment of lipids, by hydrophobic ion pairing with negatively or positively charged surfactants, and by dry or wet reverse micelle formation. Lipophilicity enhancement of hydrophilic macromolecules has several benefits including stability and bioavailability improvement ...

The Clinical Spectrum of Hypophosphatasia in Older Adults

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) should be measured in older adults presenting with fragility fractures. Hypophosphatasia (HPP) should be suspected in individuals with hypophosphatasemia (low serum ALP).
