Non-enzymatic Glycation Alters the Creep and Viscoplastic Properties of Human Cortical Bone
نویسندگان
چکیده
Collagen is considered to be the principal contributor of postyield properties. Any modification of bone collagen including accumulation of non-enzymatic cross-links should, therefore, be expected to modify the fracture behavior of bone. Previous studies under monotonic loading to fracture have shown that non-enzymatic glycation (NEG) of bone reduces its post-yield properties [1,2], but no information is available on the extent to which NEG may alter the damage behavior of bone. For example, it is unknown if NEG modified bone, containing some amount of damage, undergoes progressive or instantaneous fracture under load. Such information may be critical to the understanding and treatment of age-related fragility fractures because, with aging, bone accumulates NEG products [1] and microdamage [3].

Non-Enzymatic Glycation is Associated with Markers of Bone Quality in Human Cortical and Cancellous Bone
Factors other than low bone mass, such as changes in bone quality, may contribute to fracture risk. Non-enzymatic glycation alters bone’s organic matrix [1] and creates collagen crosslinks, collectively termed advanced glycation end products (AGEs) [2]. AGEs accumulation with age stiffens bone's organic matrix, ultimately leading to fracture [3]. Cell culture work in animal models shows increas...
متن کاملGlycation of Human IgG Induces Structural Alterations Leading to Changes in its Interaction with Anti-IgG
Background: Glycation of proteins is a non-enzymatic spontaneous process that occurs in diabetes mellitus and aging, altering the structure and function of proteins. IgG undergoes glycation leading to changes in its reactivity to antigen and fixation of complement. Objective: This study aimed at revealing the effect of glycation on the interaction of IgG with anti-IgG using electroimmunoassay...
متن کاملOn a Constitutive Material Model to Capture Time Dependent Behavior of Cortical Bone
It is commonly known that cortical bone exhibits viscoelastic-viscoplastic behavior which affects the biomechanical response when an implant is subjected to an external load. In addition, long term effects such as creep, relaxation and remodeling affect the success of the implant over time. Constitutive material models are commonly derived from data obtained in in vitro experiments. However dur...

In this paper, ratcheting behavior of beams subjected to mechanical cyclic loads at elevated temperature, using the rate dependent Chaboche unified viscoplastic model with combined kinematic and isotropic hardening theory of plasticity, is investigated. A precise and general numerical scheme, using the incremental method of solution, is developed to obtain the cyclic inelastic creep and plastic...
متن کاملStudy of Glycation Process of Human Carbonic Anhydrase II and Investigation of Effect of Fasting On Enzyme Activity by Using Spectroscopic Methods
Background: Glycation is the non-enzymatic reaction between the carbonyl groups in sugar and free amino groups in proteins. this reaction leads to changes in structure and functions of proteins. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is the final stage in this process, which is highly oxidizing and destructive nature, causing many diabetic complications. Methods: In the present investigation, ...
