In this first hypothesis-free study of the bone microRNome we found two miRNAs, miR-187, and miR-518f, differentially regulated in osteoporotic bone. Further studies are needed to elucidate the mechanisms involved in the association of these … Leer más

These reference data lay the ground to evaluate bone growth and metabolism in prepubertal children in epidemiological and clinical settings. They may also inform clinical practice to monitor skeletal development and to assess adverse drug … Leer más

An inverse correlation between IGF-1 levels and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), an endogenous endothelial nitric oxide synthase inhibitor that impairs nitric oxide production and secretion promoting endothelial dysfunction, was found. No significant association was found between … Leer más

Bilirubin and lithocholic acid induce apoptosis in osteoblastic cells. Ursodeoxycholic acid counteracts the apoptotic consequences of these two substances, and therefore, it may have further beneficial effects on the decreased bone formation in the cholestasis.

Most women with osteoporosis have multimorbidity. The variety of conditions emphasises the complexity of clinical management in this group and the importance of maintaining a generalist and multidisciplinary approach to their clinical care.

In conclusion, the present study demonstrates a new role of 5-methoxytryptophol inhibiting osteoclastogenesis and promoting osteoblast differentiation.

In summary, circulating DKK1 levels are higher in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with Cardiovascular Disease and are associated with an abnormal carotid intima media thickness in this cross-sectional study. DKK1 may be involved in vascular … Leer más
