Background
Diabetes decreases bone strength, possibly because of cortical bone changes. Sweep imaging with Fourier transform (SWIFT) has been reported to be useful for cortical bone evaluation.
Purpose
To evaluate cortical bone changes in diabetic rats using SWIFT, assess the usefulness of this technique through comparisons with microcomputed tomography (μCT) and conventional MRI, and clarify the...
The physical properties of bone tissue are determined by the organic and mineral matrix, and are one aspect of bone quality. As such, the properties of mineral and matrix are a major contributor to bone strength, independent of bone mass. Cortical bone quality may differ regionally on the three skeletal envelopes that compose it. Each of these envelopes may be affected differently by ovarian hormone...
The objectives here were to evaluate the effects of odanacatib (ODN) at doses exceeding the clinical exposure on biomechanical properties of lumbar vertebrae (LV), hip and central femur (CF), and compare ODN to alendronate (ALN) on bone remodeling/modeling in ovariectomized (OVX) monkeys. Ten days post-surgery, animals were treated with vehicle (VEH), ODN-L (2mg/kg/day, p.o.), ODN-H (8/4mg/kg/day),...
Denosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits RANKL, a protein essential for osteoclast formation, function, and survival. Osteoclast inhibition with denosumab decreased bone resorption, increased bone mineral density (BMD), and reduced fracture risk in osteoporotic women. The effects of 16months of continuous osteoclast inhibition on bone strength parameters were examined in adult...
Introduction Enzymatic and glycation-induced nonenzymatic cross-links play important roles in the expression of bone strength. The cross-link pattern is affected by tissue maturation and senescence. The aim of our study was to understand the distinctive posttranslational modifications of collagen in areas with different degrees of mineralization with and without hip fracture. Methods Sixteen female...
