Objective: To investigate the association of bone metabolism related genes polymorphisms with the effect of raloxifene hydrochloride(RLX) on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover markers in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
Methods: A total of 68 unrelated postmenopausal women with osteoporosis of Han ethnicity aged 47-74 years were randomly divided into 2 groups of 34 women: RLX group (60 mg were given daily for 12 months) and placebo group. BMD and bone turnover markers were measured at baseline, 6 and 12 months after treatment. The polymorphisms of Xba I and Pvu II sites in estrogen receptor 1 gene(ESR1), Ras I site in ESR2 gene, and start codon (Fok I) and CDX2 binding sites in vitamin D receptor gene (VDR) were analyzed.
Results: A total of 58 patients completed 12 months of study period. By the end of study, the increased percentage of BMD in lumbar spine 2-4 (L2-4), total hip, and trochanter were found significantly different between RLX group and placebo group(P<0.05), and the decreased percentage of C-telopeptide and osteocalcin were significantly different between the two groups (P<0.01). The BMD of total hip and trochanter of women with FF genotypes of VDR Fok I site were decreased by 1.98%+/-4.86% and 2.26%+/-4.73% respectively in the RLX group, but those of women with Ff/ff genotypes were increased by 2.52%+/-2.75% and 2.74 %+/-2.97%, respectively(P<0.05). Moreover, the total hip BMD of women with PP/Pp genotypes of ESR1 Pvu II site was increased by 2.12%+/-2.78%, and of women with pp genotype it was decreased by 1.34%+/-3.73%(P<0.05). However, no significant association was observed of the polymorphisms of five sites with the changes of BMD and bone turnover markers in the placebo group.
Conclusion: The effect of RLX on BMD in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis is regulated by the polymorphisms of Fok I of VDR gene and Pvu II of ESR1 gene. The study is valuable to select this drug according to genotype of patients in clinical.

Background: Anabolic resistance accelerates muscle loss in aging and obesity, thus predisposing to sarcopenic obesity.
Methods: In this retrospective analysis of a randomized clinical trial, we examined baseline predictors of the adaptive response to three months of home-based resistance exercise, daily physical activity, and protein-based, multi-ingredient supplementation (MIS) in a cohort of free-living, older males ( = 32).
Results: Multiple linear regression analyses revealed that obesity and a Global Risk Index for metabolic syndrome (MetS) were the strongest predictors of Δ% gains in lean mass (TLM and ASM), LM/body fat ratios (TLM/%BF, ASM/FM, and ASM/%BF), and allometric LM (ASMI, TLM/BW, TLM/BMI, ASM/BW), with moderately strong, negative correlations to the adaptive response to polytherapy r = -0.

Background: Lutein, a carotenoid, exhibits various biological activities such as maintaining the health of the eye, skin, heart, and bone. Recently, we found that lutein has dual roles in suppressing bone resorption and promoting bone formation. In this study, we examined the effects of lutein in a disuse-induced osteoporosis model using hindlimb-unloaded (HLU) mice.

The most time-consuming aspect of dental prosthesis installation is the osseointegration of a metal implant with bone tissue. The acceleration of this process may be achieved through the use of extracorporeal shock wave therapy. The objective of this study is to investigate the conditions for osseointegration of the second premolar implant in the mandibular segment through the use of a poroelastic model implemented in the movable cellular automaton method.

Calcium deposition in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), a form of ectopic ossification in blood vessels, can result in rigidity of the vasculature and an increase in cardiac events. Here, we report that CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPβ) potentiates calcium deposition in VSMCs and mouse aorta induced by inorganic phosphate (Pi) or vitamin D. Based on cDNA microarray and RNA sequencing data of Pi-treated rat VSMCs, C/EBPβ was found to be upregulated and thus selected for further evaluation.

People, in increasing numbers, are seeking orthodontic treatment to correct malocclusion, while some of them are suffering from orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR). Recent evidence suggests that the immune-inflammatory response occurring during bone remodeling may be responsible for OIIRR. Ferroptosis, a new type of programmed cell death (PCD), has been found to have a close interrelation with inflammation during disease progression.
