Changes in sex hormones and calcium regulating hormones with reference to bone mass associated with aging.
Measurement of bone mineral content (BMC), intestinal 47Ca absorption, and calcium regulating hormones and sex steroids in serum were performed on 32 healthy aged subjects and 26 control young subjects. In BMC, there was a progressive fall after age 40, with the rate of decrease being greater in women than in men. A significant correlation was observed between BMC and testosterone in the men an...
متن کاملSection One: the Role of Calcium and Calcium Regulating Hormones
CALCIUM Calcium ion plays a key role in many fundamental biologic processes including muscle contraction, blood coagulation, enzyme activity, neural excitability, hormone release, and membrane permeability, in addition to being an essential structural component of the skeleton. Therefore, the precise control of calcium ion in extracellular fluids is vital to the health of humans and animals. To...
متن کاملComparing bone mineral density in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis
Background: Changes in patients’ bone mineral density (BMD) is one of the problems in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, which can be due to the use of corticosteroid drugs to reduce patients' symptoms or due to the aging process in patients. In this study, we decided to compare BMD in patients with psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Methods: This study as a cross-sectional descrip...
متن کاملThe melatonin-cytokine connection in rheumatoid arthritis.
A substance from pineal gland extracts, which lightens the skin melanocytes of amphibians and fishes, was isolated in 1958 and called melatonin (MLT, N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine). In both diurnal and nocturnal species, the absence of light at night stimulates MLT biosynthesis. Electrical signals originating from the retina reach the suprachiasmatic nuclei which, in turn, send inputs via the pa...
