Protection against Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Loss by Tranilast
BACKGROUND Tranilast (N-(3',4'-dimethoxycinnamonyl) anthranilic acid) has been shown to be therapeutically effective, exerting anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects via acting on macrophage. We hypothesized that Tranilast may protect against oxidative stress-induced bone loss via action in osteoclasts (OCs) that shares precursors with macrophage. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS To e...
متن کاملImmunodeficiency Provides Partial Protection from Bone Loss Induced by Castration and Ovariectomy
Problem Statement: The interaction of osteoblasts and osteoclasts with cells of the immune system has been suggested as a contributing factor in the development of osteoporoses. Evidence from studies in rodents suggests that T cells play a significant role in bone loss following estrogen deficiency. The goal of this study was to investigate whether the lack of functional T cells in nude rats pr...
متن کاملCilostazol Attenuates Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Loss by Inhibiting Osteoclastogenesis
BACKGROUND Cilostazol has been reported to alleviate the metabolic syndrome induced by increased intracellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) levels, which is also associated with osteoclast (OC) differentiation. We hypothesized that bone loss might be attenuated via an action on OC by cilostazol. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS To test this idea, we investigated the effect of...
متن کاملProtection Against Radiation-Induced Micronuclei in Rat Bone Marrow Erythrocytes by Curcumin and Selenium L-Methionine
Background: The search for potent radioprotective agents for the amelioration of radiation side effect is an important aim in radiobiology. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of curcumin and seleno-L-methionine against radiation-induced micronucleus formation in rat bone marrow.Methods: In total, 40 male rats were divided into 8 groups (n=5 each), including control, curcumin or sel...
متن کاملAmylin inhibits ovariectomy-induced bone loss in rats.
Amylin (AMY), a peptide co-secreted with insulin by pancreatic beta-cells, inhibits bone resorption and stimulates osteoblastic activity. The ovariectomized (OVX) rat is an established animal model for human osteoporosis. Thus, the present experiment was performed to study the effects of AMY on estrogen deficiency-induced bone loss in rats. Thirty-one 6-month-old Wistar rats were randomized by ...
