Article Abstract

In this study, we tested the effect of Teriparatide (PTH) in combination with β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) as a bone void filler in an ovariectomised rat distal femoral metaphysis model.β-TCP is a completely resorbable synthetic calcium phosphate and the Teriparatide is a drug that can promote bone formation in the condition of osteoporosis. A critical size defect of 3mm in diameter, a through-hole bone defect, was drilled into each distal femur of the ovariectomised rats. The hole was filled with β-TCP and the rat was injected PTH Teriparatide (30μg/kg) in peritoneum 5 times per week. After 4and 8 weeks the animals were killed and the degree of bone healing analysed. In total, 60 animals were investigated. When the β-TCP and PTH were used, histological, biochemistry and histomor-phometric evaluations revealed significantly better bone healing in terms of quantity and quality of the newly formed bone. The Ovariectomised rats which suffer from femur metaphysis defect are cured by embedding β-tricalcuim phosphate and intermittently cured by parathyroid hormone (PTH).

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with a higher prevalence of valvular diseases and increased mortality from cardiovascular causes. Factors that influence the genesis of cardiac valve calcification (CVC) in these patients are not well-defined.

Objective: To determine the risk factors for valvular calcification in patients with CKD.

In this paper, a phosphate buffer (0.10 M, pH 7.5)--hexadecane bicontinuous microemulsion (BME) stabilized by the nonionic surfactant CE was for the first time used as the medium to investigate its effect on the electrochemical behavior of the cobaltocene redox couple ( (III)/ (II)) as electron mediator and the -mediated electroreduction of coenzyme NAD.

The reconstruction of critical-sized bone defects remains a challenging clinical problem. At present, the implantation of autogenous and allogeneic grafts is the main clinical treatment strategy but faces some drawbacks, such as inadequate source, donor site-related complications, and immune rejection, driving researchers to develop artificial bone substitutes based on distinct materials and fabrication technologies. Among the bone substitutes, bioceramic-based substitutes exhibit a remarkable biocompatibility, which can also be designed to degrade concomitantly with the formation of new bone.

Organisms often face multiple selective pressures simultaneously (e.g., mine tailings with multiple heavy metal contaminants), yet we know little about when adaptation to one stressor provides cross-tolerance or cross-intolerance to other stressors.

Injectable Plant Phosphate Coordination Compound-Based Adhesive Hydrogel Accelerates Osteoporotic Fracture Healing by Restoring Osteoclast/Osteoblast Imbalance.

Osteoporotic fractures are notoriously difficult to heal due to an imbalance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Current treatments often have limited efficacy or adverse side effects, necessitating safer and more effective solutions. Here, we developed an injectable plant-derived phosphate coordination compound-based adhesive hydrogel (MgPA-Gel) to restore bone homeostasis by integrating magnesium ions (Mg)-phytic acid (PA) nanoparticles with aminated gelatin (Gel-NH) and aldehydated starch (AS).
