Osteoporosis (OP) and osteoarthritis (OA) are major health problems in the increasing elderly population, particularly in postmenopausal women, but their relationship remains unclear. The present study investigated whether alendronate (ALN), a potent inhibitor of bone resorption, could protect articular cartilage from degeneration in a combined animal model of OP and OA induced by ovariectomy (OVX)...
One main problem associated with alveolar bone augmentation in implant dentistry is resorption of grafted bone, which may be further compromised by systemic skeletal disorders such as osteoporosis. Zoledronate acid (ZOL) is the most potent bisphosphonate to treat osteoporosis and therefore it is hypothesized to be able to invert the negative effect of osteoporosis on osseointegration and fixation...
Distraction osteogenesis (DO), which induces new bone formation along the vector of pull without requiring the use of bone graft, has become a valuable surgical method for patients with limb discrepancy or craniofacial microsomia. However, the long treatment period and possible fibrous union or nonunion hampers its further clinical application. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) have been...
Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder characterized by low bone mass and deterioration of bone microarchitecture resulting in bone fragility, which impairs fixation of the implants. Zoledronic acid (ZOL) is a potential inhibitor of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) is a growth factor that stimulates osteoblast-mediated bone formation, and these drugs could...
