Biochemical and Morphological Changes Associated with Long Bone Abnormalities in Silicon Deficiency

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the long bones of cockerels fed a silicon-supplemented basal diet and sacrificed at 4 weeks had a significantly greater amount of articular cartilage and water content as compared with the silicon-deficient group.

Is Wnt signalling the final common pathway leading to bone formation

TL;DR: The role of the Wnt pathway in osteoblast differentiation as well as the interplay between Wnt signalling and other pathways involved in bone formation are focused on.

Is the calcium receptor a molecular target for the actions of strontium on bone

TL;DR: An action of this divalent cation on the CaR in bone cells represents one possible mechanism by which strontium ranelate, a new antiosteoporotic drug, exerts it skeletal actions in vivo.

Dietary magnesium reduction to 25% of nutrient requirement disrupts bone and mineral metabolism in the rat

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Mg intake of 25% NR in the rat causes lower bone mass which may be related to increased release of substance P and TNFalpha.

Dietary zinc reduces osteoclast resorption activities and increases markers of osteoblast differentiation, matrix maturation, and mineralization in the long bones of growing rats.

TL;DR: Increased trabecular bone with additional zinc suggests that previous requirement estimates of 15 microg Zn/g diet may not meet nutritional needs for optimal bone development, and overall, the up-regulation of extracellular matrix modeling indexes and concomitant decrease in resorption activities as dietary zinc increased from 2.5 to 30 microg/g provide evidence of one or more physiological roles for zinc in modulating the balance between bone formation and Resorption.
