Introduction: Bone turnover decreases from adolescence into adulthood, but does not reach a nadir until the fourth decade. Biochemical markers of bone turnover reflect different processes before and after peak bone mass, so hormonal influences on bone turnover may differ before and after peak bone mass.

Objectives: To describe the changes in bone turnover and hormones relevant to bone metabolism from adolescence into adulthood, and to identify which hormones correlate with bone turnover before and after peak bone mass.

Design/participants: Two measurements of bone turnover markers and hormones were obtained 5-9 years apart in 116 healthy males and females recruited from secondary schools and general practices. Correlations were examined cross-sectionally and longitudinally.

Results: Dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS) correlated negatively with bone turnover cross-sectionally and longitudinally (r-0.59 to -0.69) in males and females under the age of 25 years. IGF-1 correlated positively with aminoterminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP) cross-sectionally and longitudinally (r 0.35) in women over the age of 25 years. After correction for change in BMI, there were significant longitudinal correlations between DHEAS and bone turnover in women under 25 years (r-0.62, -0.66) and IGF-1 and PINP in women over 25 years (r 0.56).

Conclusions: We have described changes in bone turnover and hormones from adolescence into adulthood. Dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate correlates with bone turnover before peak bone mass which may represent a direct effect on bone metabolism or the role of dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate as a substrate for conversion to other sex steroids. IGF-1 is correlated with aminoterminal propeptide of type I procollagen in women after peak bone mass, which may reflect an influence on cortical modelling.

Background: Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) are small-molecule compounds that exert agonist and antagonist effects on androgen receptors in a tissue-specific fashion. Because of their performance-enhancing implications, SARMs are increasingly abused by athletes. To date, SARMs have no Food and Drug Administration approved use, and recent case reports associate the use of SARMs with deleterious effects such as drug-induced liver injury, myocarditis, and tendon rupture.

Chrysoeriol: a natural RANKL inhibitor targeting osteoclastogenesis and ROS regulation for osteoporosis therapy.

Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol

The Key Laboratory of Spine and Spinal Cord Disease of Jiangxi Province, Nanchang, 330006, China.

Chrysoeriol (CHE) is a naturally occurring compound with established anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor effects. This study examines its potential role in regulating osteoclast differentiation and activity, both of which are crucial for bone remodeling. Computational docking revealed high binding affinity between CHE and RANKL, specifically at the Lys-181 residue of RANKL, suggesting potential inhibitory interactions on osteoclastogenesis.

Aims: ultrasound (US) diagnosis of enthesitis is burdened of low specificity, especially when it is performed in patients with psoriasis (PsO) but without clinical psoriatic arthritis (PsA), because of mechanical, dysmetabolic and age-related concurrent enthesopatic changes. We propose a novel US score to quantify the cortical-entheseal bone remodeling burden of several peripheral entheses, aiming to improve the specificity of US for PsA-related enthesitis, and to evaluate its diagnostic value in PsO patients with subsequent diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis (PsO/PsA).

Methods: clinical and US data of 119 consecutive patients with moderate/severe PsO and nonspecific musculoskeletal symptoms, were included in this retrospective study.

Effects of Ab501 (certolizumab mice equivalent) in arthritis induced bone loss.

ARP Rheumatol

January 2024

Instituto de Medicina Molecular-João Lobo Antunes, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade de Lisboa, Centro Académico de Medicina de Lisboa, Portugal.

Introduction - Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disease, which causes local and systemic bone damage. The main goal of this work was to analyze, how treatment intervention with Ab501 (certolizumab mice equivalent) prevents the disturbances on bone structure and mechanics induced by arthritis. Methods - Thirty DBA/1 collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice were randomly housed in experimental groups, as follows: arthritic untreated (N=9), preventive intervention (N=10) and treatment intervention (N=11).

Aims: Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) exhibit an enormous potential to regenerate periodontal tissue. However, their translatability to the clinical setting is constrained by technical difficulties in standardizing culture conditions. The aim was to assess complex culture conditions using a proteomic-based protocol to standardize multi-layer hPDLSC cultivation methodology.
