Effect of unilateral superior cervical ganglionectomy on bone mineral content and density of rat's mandible
(Elsevier, 2000-01)
To assess the effect of a local sympathectomy on bone metabolism, the effect of a unilateral superior cervical ganglionectomy (Gx) on growth and bone mineral content and density of the ipsi- and contralateral mandibles was ...
Chronic Lead Exposure Alters Mineral Properties in Alveolar Bone
(MDPI, 2021-06)
The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of chronic lead exposure on the mineral properties of alveolar bone. For this purpose, female Wistar rats (n = 8) were exposed to 1000 ppm lead acetate in ...
In vitro osteoclastogenesis from Gaucher patients' cells correlates with bone mineral density but not with Chitotriosidase
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017-10)
Gaucher disease (GD) is caused by mutations on the gene encoding for the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase. Type I GD (GD1) patients present anemia, hepatosplenomegaly and bone alterations. In spite of treatment, bone ...
Bone Strength in Growing Rats Treated with Fluoride: a Multi-dose Histomorphometric, Biomechanical and Densitometric Study
(Springer, 2018-10)
Bone deformation and fragility are common signs of skeletal fluorosis. Disorganisation of bone tissue and presence of inflammatory foci were observed after fluoride (F−) administration. Most information about F− effects ...
Effect of doxercalciferol (1α-hydroxyvitamin D2) on PTH, bone turnover and bone mineral density in a hemodialysis patient with persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism post parathyroidectomy
(Dustri-verlag Dr Karl Feistle, 2003-06)
The efficacy and safety of the vitamin D analog, doxercalciferol (1α-hydroxyvitamin D2, 1αD2) in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in hemodialysis patients has been previously reported. We report thse effect ...
Effect of melatonin on bone metabolism in ovariectomized rats
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2001-07)
To asses the effect of pharmacological dose of melatonin on bone metabolism in ovariectomized rats, urinary deoxypyridinoline (a marker of bone resorption) and calcium excretion, circulating levels of calcium, phosphorus ...
Imaging of the muscle-bone relationship
(Springer, 2014-12)
Muscle can be assessed by imaging techniques according to its size (as thickness, area, volume, or alternatively, as a mass) and architecture (fiber length and pennation angle), with values used as an anthropometric measure ...
Mineral and Bone Mass Changes During Pregnancy and Lactation
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2004-02)
During the past decade many factors have come together to producean explosive increase in investigations on bone and mineralmetabolism during pregnancy and lactation. Among some populations,frequent pregnancies and long ...
Biomechanical properties of anuran long bones: correlations with locomotor modes and habitat use
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-02)
Long bones are subjected to mechanical loads during locomotion that will influence their biomechanical properties through a feedback mechanism (the bone mechanostat). This mechanism adapts the spatial distribution of the ...
Unraveling the mystery of Gaucher bone density pathophysiology
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2021-02)
Gaucher disease (GD) is caused by pathogenic mutations in GBA1, the gene that encodes the lysosomal enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase. Despite the existence of a variety of specific treatments for GD, they cannot completely ...
