Enhancement of Local Osseointegration and Implant Stability of Titanium Implant in Osteoporotic Rats by Biomimetic Multilayered Structures Containing Catalpol.

This study examined the surface modification of titanium (Ti) implants to enhance early-stage osseointegration, which reduced the failure rate of internal fixation in osteoporotic fractures that inherently decrease in bone mass and strength. We employed a layer-by-layer electroassembly technique to deposit catalpol-containing hyaluronic acid/chitosan multilayers onto the surface of Ti implants. To evaluate the in vitro osteoinductive effects of catalpol-coated Ti implants, the robust osteoblast differentiation capacity of the murine preosteoblast cell line, MC3T3-E1, was employed.

Corynoline Suppresses Osteoclastogenesis and Attenuates ROS Activities by Regulating NF-κB/MAPKs and Nrf2 Signaling Pathways.

Declining estrogen production in postmenopausal females causes osteoporosis in which the resorption of bone exceeds the increase in bone formation. Although clinical drugs are currently available for the treatment of osteoporosis, sustained medication use is accompanied by serious side effects. Herba, a famous traditional Chinese herb listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia Commission, constitutes various traditional Chinese Medicine prescriptions, which date back to thousands of years.

Cinnamaldehyde Alleviates Bone Loss by Targeting Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial Damage via the Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway in BMSCs and Ovariectomized Mice.

Osteoporosis (OP) is typically brought on by disruption of bone homeostasis. Excessive oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction are believed to be the primary mechanisms underlying this disorder. Therefore, in order to restore bone homeostasis effectively, targeted treatment of oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction is necessary.

Ajugol's upregulation of TFEB-mediated autophagy alleviates endoplasmic reticulum stress in chondrocytes and retards osteoarthritis progression in a mouse model.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA), a degenerative disease with a high global prevalence, is characterized by the degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the apoptosis of chondrocytes. Ajugol, a extract derived from the herb Rehmannia glutinosa, has not yet been investigated for its potential in modulating the development of OA.

Methods: We employed techniques such as western blotting, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, X-ray imaging, HE staining, and SO staining to provide biological evidence supporting the role of Ajugol as a potential therapeutic agent for modulating OA.

Targeted activation of Nrf2/HO-1 pathway by Corynoline alleviates osteoporosis development.

Oxidative stress is preferentially treated as a risk factor for the development and progression of osteoporosis. Corynoline as a component of Corydalis bungeana Turcz presents antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. In the present study, the effects of Corynoline on osteoblasts following hydrogen peroxide (HO)-induced injury were evaluated accompanied by the investigation of the molecular mechanisms involved.

A Novel Anti-Osteoporosis Mechanism of VK2: Interfering with Ferroptosis via AMPK/SIRT1 Pathway in Type 2 Diabetic Osteoporosis.

Type 2 diabetic osteoporosis (T2DOP) is a chronic bone metabolic disease. Compared with traditional menopausal osteoporosis, the long-term high glucose (HG) microenvironment increases patients' risk of fracture and osteonecrosis. We were accumulating evidence that implicated ferroptosis as a pivotal mechanism of glucolipotoxicity-mediated death of osteocytes and osteoblast, a novel form of programmed cell death resulting from uncontrolled lipid peroxidation depending on iron.

CORM-3 Attenuates Oxidative Stress-Induced Bone Loss via the Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway.

Bone metabolism occurs in the entire life of an individual and is required for maintaining skeletal homeostasis. The imbalance between osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis eventually leads to osteoporosis. Oxidative stress is considered a major cause of bone homeostasis disorder, and relieving excessive oxidative stress in bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) is a potential treatment strategy for osteoporosis.
