The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Quercus mongolica (QM) which induce anti-photoaging process of skin in vitro. Bioassay-guided isolation of 80 % Me2CO extract of the leaves of QM led to the isolation and identification of six known phenolic compounds: pedunculagin (1), (-)-epigallocatechin (2), (+)-catechin (3), quercetin 3-O-(6″-O-galloyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside (4), kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside-7-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (5) and kaempferol 3-O-(6″-galloyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside (6). The effects of compounds 1-6 on expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and type-I procollagen were further evaluated. Among them, compound 1 showed potent inhibitory effect on MMP-1 and the increased type-I procollagen synthesis in ultraviolet B-induced human fibroblast. These results suggest that pedunculagin, an ellagitannin, is a potential candidate for the prevention and treatment of skin aging.

Center of Excellence in Transgender Health (CETH), Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand.
Purpose: Transgender medicine has become rapidly recognized and evolving in the health care system. The consequences of hormone therapy are among the most concerning health issues in the transgender population. This study aims to compare bone turnover markers before and after testosterone administration in hormone-naive transgender men.

Background: As a group of more than 3.67 million people, the bone health of Chinese plasmapheresis donors, which the main population is also a risk group of osteoporosis (OP), has raised concerns. Therefore, this article investigates the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD), bone metabolism indicators, and plasmapheresis donation behavior among some high-risk plasmapheresis donors for OP in China, and further explores the mediating factors through reasonable statistical methods.

Background: Zhuanggu Shubi ointment (ZGSBG) has good efficacy in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO), but the mechanism of efficacy involving gut microecology has not been elucidated.
Objective: This study investigated the mechanism of ZGSBG in regulating gut microecology in PMO.
Methods: The bilateral ovarian denervation method was used to construct a rat model of PMO and was administered ZGSBG.

Context: Individually, bone resorption or formation markers do not reflect bone balance.
Objective: 1) Combine reference bone resorption (collagen type I C-telopeptide, CTX) and formation (procollagen type I propeptide, PINP) markers to estimate balance by creating a bone balance index (BBI); 2) Examine associations of BBI, CTX, or PINP with bone mineral density (BMD) change.
Design: Mixed effects linear regression quantified associations of BBI, CTX, or PINP with BMD change rate.
