ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: With the research and development of bone tissue engineering, it has been found that advanced glycation end products can accumulate in bone tissue and affect the structure and biomechanical properties of bone. At present, many researchers have discovered that advanced glycation end products/receptor for advanced glycation end products can induce pathological changes of osteoblasts, osteoclasts and osteocytes through special mechanisms, thereby leading to imbalance of bone reconstruction, decrease of bone strength and increase of fracture incidence. OBJECTIVE: To review the effects of advanced glycation end products on bone biomechanics and the mechanism of advanced glycation end products/receptor for advanced glycation end products on bone tissue cells. METHODS: The first author searched the relevant articles regarding the effect of advanced glycation end products/receptor for advanced glycation end products on metabolism of bone tissue cells published in PubMed, Web of Science and Medline database from January 2005 to July 2019. The results were limited to English literatures. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Finally, 54 representative literatures were selected for summary. The effects of advanced glycation end products on collagen cross-linking can significantly reduce bone strength. Advanced glycation end products/receptor for advanced glycation end products affects bone metabolism through pathological mechanism changes of bone tissue cells, which results in essential changes of bone tissue cells. Finally, it will lead to imbalance of bone metabolism and increase of bone fragility. The osteoporosis is directly related to the activity change of bone tissue cells, but the specific mechanism needs further study. The change of this special mechanism may provide a unique pathological mechanism, diagnosis methods, treatment and prevention strategies for osteoporosis in the future.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of ultra-early hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) on bone calcium, biomechanical properties and bone collagen of femur in rats with complete spinal cord transaction. Methods A total of 75 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided in-to sham group (n=15), model group (n=20) and HBO group (n=40). HBO group was divided into three hours group (HBO1 group, n=20) and twelve hours group (HBO2 group, n=20). All groups underwent laminectomy at T10, while the model group, HBO1 group and HBO2 group underwent complete spinal cord transection at the same level. Three hours and twelve hours after surgery, HBO1 group and HBO2 group received HBO, respectively, for three courses with ten days in a course. After treatment, the femoral biomechanical properties, bone calcium and hydroxyproline (Hyp) were determined. The morphology of bone trabecula and the bone collagen was observed with HE stain-ing and Masson triad color staining, respectively. Results After treatment, compared with the sham group, the femoral biomechanical proper-ties, the content of bone calcium and Hyp decreased in the model group (P<0.05);compared with the model group and HBO2 group, they in-creased in HBO1 group (P<0.05). The number of bone trabecula and the bone collagen decreased, and derangement and sparseness were ob-served in the model group;however, the changes were substantially mild in HBO1 group. Conclusion Ultra-early HBO could increase the content of bone calcium and Hyp of femur, improve the morphology of the femur bone collagen, and improve the femoral biomechanical properties in rats with complete spinal cord transection.
ABSTRACT
[Objective]To investigate the changes and correlation of bone collagen and biomechanical property in osteoporosis rats.[Method]Normal 30 nullimating female 7 month SD rats were divided randomly to two groups,each included 15.The sham group was unovariectomized,and the OVX group was ovariectomized.To execute the rats after 12 weeks,the author get the 5th lumbar vertebra,and then detected the biomechanical property and HYP.The author observed the collagen morphology of the 4th lumbar vertebra using the microscope after the masson triad color dyeing.[Result]Twelve weeks later,HYP in the sham group was(0.197?0.035)mg/g.The bone collagen was regular,compact,and closed succession.HYP in the OVX group was(0.182?0.022)mg/g.The bone collagen was incompact,thin,collapse and poor succession.There was significant change of the HYP in two groups(P
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the preventive and therapeufic effect of sheep bone collagen peptide (SBCP) on osteoporosis of ovariectomized rats. Method Thirty-two 3.5 mon unmated SD female rats were randomly divided into 4 groups by weight:blank group (sham operation), control group (ovariectomized), sample 1 group (ovariectomized and fed freeze drying SBCP) and sample 2 group (ovariectomized and fed spray drying SBCP). Seven days after ovariectomy,the blank group and ovariectomized group were given distilled water (1 ml/100 g?d), the sample 1 and sample 2 group were given sample 1 and sample 2 (1000mg/kg.d). Body weight, feed efficiency, serum bone metabolizing index and bone density (BD), length and diameter of femur were measured 10 w later. Results The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) of ovariectomized or control group was significantly increased, but the increase was restrained in sample 1 and sample 2 group. The BGP of ovariectomized group was significantly higher than that of the blank group, and the BGP of sample 1 and sample 2 group was lower than that of the ovariectomized group, nearly equal to the blank group. The BD of ovariectomized group was declined significantly, but that of sample 1 and sample 2 group was declined slowly. The BD of sample 2 group washigher than that of ovariedomized group, even similar to the blank group. The length and diameter of femur in the sample groups were larger than those of ovariectomized group. The effect of sample 1 and sample 2 on serum bone metabolism indices and femur size was not significantly different. Conclusion Sheep bone collagen polypeptide can reduce the resorption of bone, promote bone growth, and also reduce postmenopausal osteoporosis effectively. The different drying methods have no difference in the anti-osteoporosis effect.
