Vitamin C Prevents Hypogonadal Bone Loss
Epidemiologic studies correlate low vitamin C intake with bone loss. The genetic deletion of enzymes involved in de novo vitamin C synthesis in mice, likewise, causes severe osteoporosis. However, very few studies have evaluated a protective role of this dietary supplement on the skeleton. Here, we show that the ingestion of vitamin C prevents the low-turnover bone loss following ovariectomy in...
متن کاملHigh vitamin C intake is associated with lower 4-year bone loss in elderly men.
Vitamin C is essential for collagen formation and normal bone development. We evaluated associations of total, supplemental, and dietary vitamin C intake with bone mineral density (BMD) at the hip [femoral neck, trochanter], spine, and radial shaft and 4-y BMD change in elderly participants from the Framingham Osteoporosis Study. Energy-adjusted vitamin C intakes were estimated from the Willett...
متن کاملProstaglandin E2 prevents ovariectomy-induced cancellous bone loss in rats.
The object of this study was to determine whether prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) can prevent ovariectomy-induced cancellous bone loss. Thirty-five 3-month-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into two groups. The rats in the first group were ovariectomized (OVX) while the others received sham operation (sham-OVX). The OVX group was further divided into three treatment groups. The daily doses fo...
متن کاملAmlexanox Suppresses Osteoclastogenesis and Prevents Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Loss
The activity of protein kinases IKK-ε and TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) has been shown to be associated with inflammatory diseases. As an inhibitor of IKK-ε and TBK1, amlexanox is an anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, immunomodulator and used for treatment of ulcer, allergic rhinitis and asthma in clinic. We hypothesized that amlexanox may be used for treatment of osteoclast-related diseases whic...
متن کاملTamoxifen prevents bone loss in castrated male mice.
The selective estrogen receptor modulator tamoxifen was administered to intact and castrated male mice, and its effects on tibial bones and circulatory calcium, phosphate and testosterone were compared with controls and castrated animals. Tamoxifen in a dose used in humans for treatment of breast cancer decreased the weight of seminal vesicles, an organ which is highly sensitive to the androgen...
