Influence of Ovariectomy on Bone Turnover and Trabecular Bone Mass in Mature Cynomolgus Monkeys
PURPOSE To examine the influence of ovariectomy (OVX) on bone turnover and trabecular bone mass at the 3 clinically important skeletal sites in mature cynomolgus monkeys. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six female cynomolgus monkeys, aged 17-21 years, were randomized into 2 groups by the stratified weight: the OVX and sham-operation groups (n = 3 in each group). The experimental period was 16 months. L...
متن کاملInfluence of body weight on bone mass, architecture and turnover.
Weight-dependent loading of the skeleton plays an important role in establishing and maintaining bone mass and strength. This review focuses on mechanical signaling induced by body weight as an essential mechanism for maintaining bone health. In addition, the skeletal effects of deviation from normal weight are discussed. The magnitude of mechanical strain experienced by bone during normal acti...
متن کاملVitamin K, bone turnover, and bone mass in girls.
BACKGROUND Vitamin K has been suggested to have a role in bone metabolism, and low vitamin K intake has been related to low bone density and increased risk of osteoporotic fracture. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine whether phylloquinone (vitamin K(1)) intake and biochemical indicators of vitamin K status are related to bone mineral content (BMC) and markers of bone forma...
متن کاملOvariectomy, social status, and atherosclerosis in cynomolgus monkeys.
Evidence is contradictory regarding the effects of natural or surgical menopause on "female protection" against coronary artery atherosclerosis. We evaluated atherosclerosis, plasma lipids, blood pressure, and carbohydrate tolerance in 21 ovariectomized and 23 intact female cynomolgus macaques fed a moderately atherogenic diet for 30 months. We also evaluated the influence of social dominance s...
متن کاملChanges in trabecular bone turnover and bone marrow cell development in tail-suspended mice.
Skeletal unloading induces trabecular bone loss in loaded bones. The tail-suspended mouse model simulates conditions associated with lack of mechanical stress such as space flight for the loaded bones. In such a model, the tail supports the body weight. The forelimbs are normally loaded and the movement of its hindlimbs is free without weight bearing. Histomorphometric analyses of the murine ti...
