Effect of Low-magnitude, High-frequency Vibration on Osteocytes in the Regulation of Osteoclasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Osteocytes are well evidenced to be the major mechanosensor in bone, responsible for sending signals to the effector cells (osteoblasts and osteoclasts) that carry out bone formation and resorption. Consistent with this hypothesis, it has been shown that

Murine osteoclasts secrete serine protease HtrA1 capable of degrading osteoprotegerin in the bone microenvironment

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2019
Osteoclasts are multinucleated cells responsible for bone resorption. The differentiation of osteoclasts from bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) is induced by receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL).

Cytokine pathways driving diverse tissue pathologies in rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a complex systemic disorder characterised primarily by articular inflammation and destruction with associated functional loss and reduced quality of life. RA is also associated with extra‐articular disease e.g. of the lung with potentially devastating clinical consequences.

Serum markers of bone fragility in type-2 diabetes mellitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have normal or increased bone mineral density (BMD) but despite that, they are characterized by an increased hip and vertebral fracture risk that involves the alteration of bone quality and not the reduction ...

The unbearable lightness of bone marrow homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The anatomical and functional dimensions of bone marrow topography have been at the forefront of modern bone and immunological research for many years and remain a source of complexity and perplexity due to the multitude of microhabitats within this ...

Exosome as bioactive nanovesicle for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in periodontitis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the mechanism that exosomes participate in the pathogenesis of periodontitis and their potential as biomarkers for early diagnosis and summarizes the application of cell‐ or plant‐derived exosomes or engineered exosomes in periodontitis or periodontal regeneration while proposing the perspective of translational application of ...

Incorporation of Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 and Osteoprotegerin in 3D-Printed Ti6Al4V Scaffolds Enhances Osseointegration Under Osteoporotic Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Osteoporosis is an age-related metabolic disease that results in limited bone regeneration capacity and excessive osteoclast activity. After arthroplasty in patients with osteoporosis, poor interface osseointegration resulting from insufficient bone ...

Pathophysiological roles of osteoprotegerin (OPG)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2009
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a secreted glycoprotein central to bone turnover via its role as a decoy receptor for the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand (RANKL) and has traditionally been linked to a number of bone-related diseases. However, there is additional evidence that OPG can promote cell survival by inhibiting TNF-related apoptosis-

Probiotic consumption reduces alveolar bone loss and kidney damage in pregnant rats with experimental periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019 (B. lactis HN019) is a probiotic bacterial strain with immunomodulatory properties. Its benefits have been observed in healthy and systemically compromised animals with periodontitis (PD). Our objective was to investigate the local and systemic effects of the systemic administration of B.
