[PMID: 38884020 PMCID: PMC11178402 DOI: 10.1155/2024/6640796] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024]
Abstract
Diabetes has a significant global prevalence. Chronic hyperglycemia affects multiple organs and tissues, including bones. A large number of diabetic patients develop osteoporosis; however, the precise relationship between diabetes and osteoporosis remains incompletely elucidated. The activation of the AGE-RAGE signaling pathway hinders the differentiation of osteoblasts and weakens the process of bone formation due to the presence of advanced glycation end products. High glucose environment can induce ferroptosis of osteoblasts and then develop osteoporosis. Hyperglycemia also suppresses the secretion of sex hormones, and the reduction of testosterone is difficult to effectively maintain bone mineral density. As diabetes therapy, thiazolidinediones control blood glucose by activating PPAR-γ. Activated PPAR-γ can promote osteoclast differentiation and regulate osteoblast function, triggering osteoporosis. The effects of metformin and insulin on bone are currently controversial. Currently, there are no appropriate tools available for assessing the risk of fractures in diabetic patients, despite the fact that the occurrence of osteoporotic fractures is considerably greater in diabetic individuals compared to those without diabetes. Further improving the inclusion criteria of FRAX risk factors and clarifying the early occurrence of osteoporosis sites unique to diabetic patients may be an effective way to diagnose and treat diabetic osteoporosis and reduce the risk of fracture occurrence.

Abstract
Context Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the fastest-growing diseases worldwide; however, its pathogenesis remains unclear. Complications seriously affect the quality of life of patients in the later stages of diabetes, ultimately leading to suffering. Natural small molecules are an important source of antidiabetic agents. Objective Astragaloside IV (AS-IV) is an active ingredient of Astragalus mongholicus (Fisch.) Bunge. We reviewed the efficacy and mechanism of action of AS-IV in animal and cellular models of diabetes and the mechanism of action of AS-IV on diabetic complications in animal and cellular models. We also summarized the safety of AS-IV and provided ideas and rationales for its future clinical application. Methods Articles on the intervention in DM and its complications using AS-IV, such as those published in SCIENCE, PubMed, Springer, ACS, SCOPUS, and CNKI from the establishment of the database to February 2022, were reviewed. The following points were systematically summarized: dose/concentration, route of administration, potential mechanisms, and efficacy of AS-IV in animal models of DM and its complications. Results AS-IV has shown therapeutic effects in animal models of DM, such as alleviating gestational diabetes, delaying diabetic nephropathy, preventing myocardial cell apoptosis, and inhibiting vascular endothelial dysfunction; however, the potential effects of AS-IV on DM should be investigated. Conclusion AS-IV is a potential drug for the treatment of diabetes and its complications, including diabetic vascular disease, cardiomyopathy, retinopathy, peripheral neuropathy, and nephropathy. In addition, preclinical toxicity studies indicate that it appears to be safe, but the safe human dose limit is yet to be determined, and formal assessments of adverse drug reactions among humans need to be further investigated. However, additional formulations or structural modifications are required to improve the pharmacokinetic parameters and facilitate the clinical use of AS-IV.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Previous studies involving diabetics have shown different associations between fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and bone mineral density (BMD). The different effects of FPG on BMD are due to varying effects of antidiabetic drugs, glycemic control and diabetic complications in the diabetic patients. It is necessary to identify the association in subjects without diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 2367 females over 65 were included in this cross-sectional study. Subjects were grouped by FPG quartile. BMD and the prevalence of osteoporosis were compared among different FPG quartiles. Multiple logistic regression was used to analyze the independent contribution of FPG to osteoporosis. RESULTS Subjects in lower FPG quartile had lower BMD (P < 0.05). Subjects with osteoporosis had a lower FPG than the subjects of osteopenia, and both were lower than subjects with normal bone mass (P < 0.001 for all). Compared with the lowest FPG quartile, subjects in the 3rd and the 4th quartiles have a lower risk of osteoporosis in the lumbar spine (OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.59-0.98; OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.56-0.99, respectively), the total hip (OR 0.72, 95% CI 0.56-0.96; OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.53-0.99, respectively), and the femoral neck (OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.50-0.97; OR 0.71, 95% CI 0.54-0.92, respectively) after adjustment for age, BMI, education, physical activity and menopausal age. CONCLUSION FPG was positively associated with BMD in non-diabetic elderly females. Low FPG may increase the risk of osteoporosis in the non-diabetic elderly females in China.

Abstract
Background Quercetin, a flavonoid abundantly in vegetables and fruits, exerts antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. We investigated the protective effects of quercetin against oxidative stress in the Achilles tendons of diabetic rats. Methods Cells were collected from the Achilles tendons of Sprague–Dawley rats and cultured under four conditions: regular glucose (RG) without quercetin (Quer-), RG with quercetin (Quer +), high-glucose (HG) Quer-, and HG Quer + . The expression of genes related to NADPH oxidase (NOX) and inflammation, reactive oxygen species accumulation, and apoptosis rates was analyzed. Additionally, diabetic rats were divided into two groups and subjected to quercetin (group Q) or no quercetin (group C) treatment. Histological evaluation and expression analysis of relevant genes in the Achilles tendon were performed. Results In rat tendon-derived cells, the expression of Nox1, Nox4, and Il6; reactive oxygen species accumulation; and apoptosis rates were significantly decreased by quercetin treatment in the HG group. The collagen fiber arrangement was significantly disorganized in the diabetic rat Achilles tendons in group C compared with that in group Q. The mRNA and protein expression levels of NOX1 and NOX4 were significantly decreased upon quercetin treatment. Furthermore, the expression of Il6, type III collagen, Mmp2, and Timp2 was significantly decreased, whereas that of type I collagen was significantly increased in group Q compared with that in group C. Conclusions Quercetin treatment decreases NOX expression and thus exerts antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in the Achilles tendons of diabetic rats. Quercetin treatment may be effective against diabetic tendinopathy.

How Do Drugs Affect the Skeleton? Implications for Forensic Anthropology. BIOLOGY 2022; 11:biology11040524. [PMID: 35453723 PMCID: PMC9030599 DOI: 10.3390/biology11040524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Revised: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/18/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Simple Summary Forensic anthropologists analyze human remains to assist in the identification of the deceased, predominantly by assessing age-at-death, sex, stature, ancestry and any unique identifying features. Whilst methods have been established to create this biological profile of the skeleton, these may be influenced by a number of factors. This paper, for the first time, provides an overview from a reading of the clinical and pharmacological literature to explore whether the intake of drugs can affect the skeleton and whether these may have implications for forensic anthropology casework. In effect, drugs such as tobacco, heroin, and prescription medications can alter bone mineral density, can increase the risk of fractures, destroy bone and changes to the dentition. By considering how drugs can affect the skeleton, forensic anthropologists can be aware of this when attempting to identify the deceased. Abstract Forensic anthropologists rely on a number of parameters when analyzing human skeletal remains to assist in the identification of the deceased, predominantly age-at-death, sex, stature, ancestry or population affinity, and any unique identifying features. During the examination of human remains, it is important to be aware that the skeletal features considered when applying anthropological methods may be influenced and modified by a number of factors, and particular to this article, prescription drugs (including medical and non-medical use) and other commonly used drugs. In view of this, this paper aims to review the medical, clinical and pharmacological literature to enable an assessment of those drug groups that as side effects have the potential to have an adverse effect on the skeleton, and explore whether or not they can influence the estimation of age-at-death, sex and other indicators of the biological profile. Moreover, it may be that the observation of certain alterations or inconsistencies in the skeleton may relate to the use of drugs or medication, and this in turn may help narrow down the list of missing persons to which a set of human remains could belong. The information gathered from the clinical and medical literature has been extracted with a forensic anthropological perspective and provides an awareness on how several drugs, such as opioids, cocaine, corticosteroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, alcohol, tobacco and others have notable effects on bone. Through different mechanisms, drugs can alter bone mineral density, causing osteopenia, osteoporosis, increase the risk of fractures, osteonecrosis, and oral changes. Not much has been written on the influence of drugs on the skeleton from the forensic anthropological practitioner perspective; and this review, in spite of its limitations and the requirement of further research, aims to investigate the current knowledge of the possible effects of both prescription and recreational drugs on bones, contributing to providing a better awareness in forensic anthropological practice and assisting in the identification process of the deceased.

Molecular Structure-Based Screening of the Constituents of Calotropis procera Identifies Potential Inhibitors of Diabetes Mellitus Target Alpha Glucosidase. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2022; 44:963-987. [PMID: 35723349 PMCID: PMC8928985 DOI: 10.3390/cimb44020064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2021] [Revised: 01/07/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a disorder characterized by higher levels of blood glucose due to impaired insulin mechanisms. Alpha glucosidase is a critical drug target implicated in the mechanisms of diabetes mellitus and its inhibition controls hyperglycemia. Since the existing standard synthetic drugs have therapeutic limitations, it is imperative to identify new potent inhibitors of natural product origin which may slow carbohydrate digestion and absorption via alpha glucosidase. Since plant extracts from Calotropis procera have been extensively used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, the present study used molecular docking and dynamics simulation techniques to screen its constituents against the receptor alpha glucosidase. Taraxasterol, syriogenin, isorhamnetin-3-O-robinobioside and calotoxin were identified as potential novel lead compounds with plausible binding energies of −40.2, −35.1, −34.3 and −34.3 kJ/mol against alpha glucosidase, respectively. The residues Trp481, Asp518, Leu677, Leu678 and Leu680 were identified as critical for binding and the compounds were predicted as alpha glucosidase inhibitors. Structurally similar compounds with Tanimoto coefficients greater than 0.7 were reported experimentally to be inhibitors of alpha glucosidase or antidiabetic. The structures of the molecules may serve as templates for the design of novel inhibitors and warrant in vitro assaying to corroborate their antidiabetic potential.

The Impact of GLP1 Agonists on Bone Metabolism: A Systematic Review. Medicina (B Aires) 2022; 58:medicina58020224. [PMID: 35208548 PMCID: PMC8878541 DOI: 10.3390/medicina58020224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Revised: 01/24/2022] [Accepted: 01/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Objectives: The association between diabetes mellitus and increased risk of bone fractures has led to the investigation of the impact of antidiabetic drugs on bone metabolism. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs) are a relatively novel and promising class of anti-hyperglycemic drugs. In addition to their blood glucose lowering action, GLP1RAs seem to have additional pleiotropic properties such as a beneficial skeletal effect; although the underlying mechanisms are not completely understood. The present systematic review summarizes current evidence about GLP1RAs and their effects on bone metabolism and fracture. Methods: An extensive literature search was conducted based on electronic databases namely, PubMed, Google Scholar and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) through October 2019 to January 2020 for articles related to bone mineral density, diabetes mellitus and GLP1RAs. We included articles published in English. Finally, we included four randomized controlled trials, three meta-analyses, a case-control study and a population-based cohort analysis. Results: Based on the articles included, the animal studies indicated the salutary skeletal effects of GLP1RAs in opposition to what has been commonly observed in human studies, showing that these agents have no impact on bone mineral density (BMD) and the turnover markers. Moreover, it was demonstrated that GLP1 was not associated with fracture risk as compared to other anti-hyperglycemic drugs. Conclusions: Findings from this systematic review have demonstrated the neutral impact of GLP1RAs on BMD. Moreover, further double-blind randomized controlled trials are needed to draw more meaningful and significant conclusions on the efficacy of GLP1RAs on BMD.

Diabetes Medication Metformin Inhibits Osteoclast Formation and Activity in In Vitro Models for Periodontitis. Front Cell Dev Biol 2022; 9:777450.

Abstract
Diabetes and periodontitis are comorbidities and may share common pathways. Several reports indicate that diabetes medication metformin may be beneficial for the periodontal status of periodontitis patients. Further research using appropriate cell systems of the periodontium, the tissue that surrounds teeth may reveal the possible mechanism. Periodontal ligament fibroblasts anchor teeth in bone and play a role in the onset of both alveolar bone formation and degradation, the latter by inducing osteoclast formation from adherent precursor cells. Therefore, a cell model including this type of cells is ideal to study the influence of metformin on both processes. We hypothesize that metformin will enhance bone formation, as described for osteoblasts, whereas the effects of metformin on osteoclast formation is yet undetermined. Periodontal ligament fibroblasts were cultured in the presence of osteogenic medium and 0.2 or 1 mM metformin. The influence of metformin on osteoclast formation was first studied in PDLF cultures supplemented with peripheral blood leukocytes, containing osteoclast precursors. Finally, the effect of metformin on osteoclast precursors was studied in cultures of CD14+ monocytes that were stimulated with M-CSF and receptor activator of Nf-κB ligand (RANKL). No effects of metformin were observed on osteogenesis: not on alkaline phosphatase activity, Alizarin red deposition, nor on the expression of osteogenic markers RUNX-2, Collagen I and Osteonectin. Metformin inhibited osteoclast formation and accordingly downregulated the genes involved in osteoclastogenesis: RANKL, macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) and osteoclast fusion gene DC-STAMP. Osteoclast formation on both plastic and bone as well as bone resorption was inhibited by metformin in M-CSF and RANKL stimulated monocyte cultures, probably by reduction of RANK expression. The present study unraveling the positive effect of metformin in periodontitis patients at the cellular level, indicates that metformin inhibits osteoclast formation and activity, both when orchestrated by periodontal ligament fibroblasts and in cytokine driven osteoclast formation assays. The results indicate that metformin could have a systemic beneficiary effect on bone by inhibiting osteoclast formation and activity.

Abstract
AIMS Increasing evidence suggests that metformin can affect bone metabolism beyond its hypoglycemic effects in diabetic patients. However, the effects of metformin on fracture risk in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients remain unclear. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed in this study to evaluate the association between metformin application and fracture risk in T2DM patients based on previous studies published until June 2021. METHODS A systematic search was performed to collect publications on metformin application in T2DM patients based on PubMed, Embase, Cochran, and Web of Science databases. Meta-analysis was performed by using a random-effects model to estimate the summary relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgroup analyses based on cohort/case-control and ethnicity and sensitivity analyses were also performed. RESULTS Eleven studies were included in the meta-analysis. Results demonstrated metformin use was not significantly associated with a decreased risk of fracture (RR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.81-1.02; I2 = 96.8%). Moreover, metformin use also demonstrated similar results in subgroup analyses of seven cohort studies and four case-control studies, respectively (RR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.76-1.07; I2 = 98.0%; RR, 0.96; 96% CI, 0.89-1.03; I2 = 53.7%). Sensitivity analysis revealed that there was no publication bias. CONCLUSION There was no significant correlation between fracture risk and metformin application in T2DM patients. Due to a limited number of existing studies, further research is needed to make a definite conclusion for clinical consensus.

Masajtis-Zagajewska A, Hołub T, Pęczek K, Makówka A, Nowicki M. Different Effects of Empagliflozin on Markers of Mineral-Bone Metabolism in Diabetic and Non-Diabetic Patients with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2021; 57:1352. [PMID: 34946298 PMCID: PMC8705759 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57121352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2021] [Revised: 12/02/2021] [Accepted: 12/08/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Background and objectives: Treatment with sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors decrease tubular reabsorption of phosphate, which may explain the reduction of bone mineral density and an excess of bone fractures observed in some studies with this class of drugs. Since an increased risk of bone fractures may also be a result of diabetes itself, our study aimed to compare the effect of empagliflozin on the markers of mineral-bone metabolism between diabetic (DKD) and non-diabetic (ND-CKD) patients with stage 3 chronic kidney disease (CKD). Materials and Methods: Forty-two patients with stage 3 CKD and A2 albuminuria, including 18 with DKD and 24 ND-CKD, were investigated. All subjects received 10 mg empagliflozin for 7 days. Serum calcium, phosphate, parathormone (PTH), calcitriol, bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), FGF-23 and urine calcium, phosphate, albumin and the renal tubular maximum reabsorption rate of phosphate to the glomerular filtration rate (TmP-GFR) were measured before and after empagliflozin administration. Differences in biomarkers response to empagliflozin between DKD and ND-CKD were the main measures of outcome. Results: There was a significant increase of PTH, FGF-23 and phosphate in DKD but not in ND-CKD whereas BAP and TmP/GFR did not change in either group. The reduction of albuminuria was only significant in ND-CKD. Conclusions: The effect of SGLT2 inhibitor on serum mineral and bone markers and on albuminuria in patients with CKD may be differently modified by the presence of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Objective: The overall objective of this study was to investigate the effects of catalpol on bone remodeling of diabetic osteoporosis by regulating osteoblast differentiation and migration. Method: Using a murine model of diabetic osteoporosis, to detect the protective effects of catalpol on bone loss, architectural deterioration of trabecular bone and bone metabolism biomarkers were tested. A model of MC3T3-E1 cells was established by treatment with high glucose; the regulatory role of catalpol in the differentiation and migration was tested by Western blot, ALP staining, and Alizarin Red staining. Results: Catalpol treatment markedly ameliorated trabecular bone deterioration by reducing degenerative changes of the trabecular structure by improving the bone formation marker levels of ALP, osteopontin, type I collagen, and osteocalcin, as well as the level of OPG/RANKL. Catalpol enhanced cell motility and scattering following gap formation of MC3T3-E1 cells. Conclusion: The results indicated that catalpol exhibits a protective effect against diabetic osteoporosis by regulating the differentiation and migration of osteoblast.

Abstract
Several endocrine systems have important effects on bone tissue. Thyroid hormones are essential for normal growth and development. Excess of these hormones will result in clinically significant changes that may require intervention. Glucocorticoids also have a marked effect on bone metabolism by several pathways. Their endogenous or exogenous excess will induce pathological processes that might elevate the risk of fractures. Insulin and the carbohydrate metabolism elicit a physiological effect on bone; however, the lack of insulin (type 1 diabetes) or insulin resistance (type 2 diabetes) have deleterious influence on bone tissue.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) and osteoporotic fractures (OFs) are common multifactorial and heterogenic disorders of increasing incidence. Helicobacter pylori (H.p.) colonizes the stomach approximately in half of the world's population, causes gastroduodenal diseases and is prevalent in numerous extra-digestive diseases known to be associated with OP/OF. The studies regarding relationship between H.p. infection (HPI) and OP/OFs are inconsistent. The current review summarizes the relevant literature on the potential role of HPI in OP, falls and OFs and highlights the reasons for controversies in the publications. In the first section, after a brief overview of HPI biological features, we analyze the studies evaluating the association of HPI and bone status. The second part includes data on the prevalence of OP/OFs in HPI-induced gastroduodenal diseases (peptic ulcer, chronic/atrophic gastritis and cancer) and the effects of acid-suppressive drugs. In the next section, we discuss the possible contribution of HPI-associated extra-digestive diseases and medications to OP/OF, focusing on conditions affecting both bone homeostasis and predisposing to falls. In the last section, we describe clinical implications of accumulated data on HPI as a co-factor of OP/OF and present a feasible five-step algorithm for OP/OF risk assessment and management in regard to HPI, emphasizing the importance of an integrative (but differentiated) holistic approach. Increased awareness about the consequences of HPI linked to OP/OF can aid early detection and management. Further research on the HPI-OP/OF relationship is needed to close current knowledge gaps and improve clinical management of both OP/OF and HPI-related disorders.

Abstract
Preclinical studies have shown a potential osteoanabolic effect of metformin but human studies of how metformin affects bone turnover are few. A post hoc sub-study analysis of an 18-month multicenter, placebo-controlled, double-blinded trial in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), randomizing participants to metformin versus placebo both in combination with different insulin analogue regimens (Metformin + Insulin vs. Placebo + Insulin). Patients were not treatment naive at baseline, 83% had received metformin, 69% had received insulin, 57.5% had received the combination of metformin and insulin before entering the study. Bone formation and resorption were assessed by measuring, N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P1NP) and C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) at baseline and end of study. The influence of gender, age, smoking, body mass index (BMI), T2DM duration, glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), c-reactive protein (CRP) and insulin dosage was also included in the analyses. The levels of bone formation marker P1NP and bone resorption marker CTX increased significantly in both groups during the trial. P1NP increased less in the Metformin + Insulin compared to the placebo + insulin group (p = 0.001) (between group difference change), while the increases in CTX levels (p = 0.11) were not different. CRP was inversely associated (p = 0.012) and insulin dosage (p = 0.011) was positively related with change in P1NP levels. BMI (p = 0.002) and HbA1C (p = 0.037) were inversely associated with change in CTX levels. During 18 months of treatment with metformin or placebo, both in combination with insulin, bone turnover increased in both groups. But the pattern was different as the bone formation marker (P1NP) increased less during Metformin + Insulin treatment, while change in bone resorption (CTX) was not significantly different between the two groups.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is an increasingly widespread disease, as well as diabetes mellitus. It is now accepted that osteoporotic fractures are a serious co-morbidity and complication of diabetes. Despite of good bone mineral density in Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) patients is the fracture risk elevated. It is due to reduced bone quality. To determine the effect of glycemic compensation on bone density and trabecular bone score (TBS) in T2DM. We analyzed a cohort of 105 postmenopausal women with T2DM. For all patients, central bone density (spinal and lumbar spine) was tested by DXA methodology, glycemic control parameters were assessed, and anthropometric parameters were measured. Bone quality was analyzed using TBS software. The results were statistically processed. Good glycemic compensation with glycated hemoglobin (A1c) value <7.0 % DCCT did not lead to BMD changes in patients with T2DM. However, patients with HbA1c <7 % DCCT had significantly better TBS (1.254±0.148 vs. 1.166±0.094, p=0.01). There was a negative correlation between TBS and glycated hemoglobin (r= -0,112, p<0.05) with glycemic fasting (r= -0.117, p<0.05). The optimal effect on TBS is achieved when all three markers of glycemic compensation (glycated hemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose and postprandial glycemia) are in optimal range. By using ROC curves glycated hemoglobin has the most significant effect on TBS. Optimal glycemic compensation, evaluated by glycated hemoglobin, does not lead to changes in BMD but has a beneficial effect on TBS in T2DM. Good glycemic control is required also for reduction of the risk of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures.

Abstract
Purpose of review Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are relatively novel antidiabetic drugs that improve glycemic control and reduce cardiovascular outcomes as well as renal function decline. SGLT2 inhibitors act by inhibiting glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubule of the kidney. Emerging data suggest that these drugs may also influence bone and mineral metabolism. This review summarizes clinical trial data on bone and mineral outcomes, and discusses potential underlying mechanisms. Recent findings Three large randomized controlled trials documented cardiovascular and renal protective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors. Recent studies indicate that SGLT2 inhibitors influence renal phosphate reabsorption and calciuria. Although the CANVAS trial suggested an increased fracture risk associated with canagliflozin compared with placebo, the vast majority of trials and meta-analyses did not demonstrate an increased fracture risk associated with SGLT2 inhibitor use. Summary SGLT2 inhibitors have shown clinically relevant cardiovascular and renal protective effects. The long-term implications for bone health, in particular in the context of chronic kidney disease, are still incompletely understood and warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Scarce data exist on the body composition of lean women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) on treatment with metformin and oral contraceptives (OCs). Thirty-four lean (body mass index 18.5–24.9 kg/m2) women (17 with PCOS on metformin and OCs treatment for six months and 17 controls) aged 18–40 years were assessed for body composition parameters (fat, muscle, glycogen, protein masses, bone masses, and body water compartments) and phase angles. PCOS patients demonstrated lower muscle, glycogen and protein masses (U = 60, p = 0.003), along with a lower bone mineral content and mass (U = 78, p = 0.021; U = 74, p = 0.014) than their healthy counterparts, while total and abdominal fat masses were similar between the two groups. PCOS patients also exhibited increased extracellular body water (U = 10, p < 0.001) and decreased intracellular water, compatible with low-grade inflammation and cellular dehydration. Key differences in body composition between women with PCOS and controls demonstrated an osteosarcopenic body composition phenotype in PCOS patients. A confirmation of these findings in larger studies may render osteosarcopenia management a targeted adjunct therapy in women with PCOS.

Abstract
Persons with type 1 or type 2 diabetes have a significantly higher fracture risk than age-matched persons without diabetes, attributed to disease-specific deficits in the microarchitecture and material properties of bone tissue. Therefore, independent effects of diabetes drugs on skeletal integrity are vitally important. Studies of incretin-based therapies have shown divergent effects of different agents on fracture risk, including detrimental, beneficial, and neutral effects. The sulfonylurea class of drugs, owing to its hypoglycemic potential, is thought to amplify the risk of fall-related fractures, particularly in the elderly. Other agents such as the biguanides may, in fact, be osteo-anabolic. In contrast, despite similarly expected anabolic properties of insulin, data suggests that insulin pharmacotherapy itself, particularly in type 2 diabetes, may be a risk factor for fracture, negatively associated with determinants of bone quality and bone strength. Finally, sodium-dependent glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors have been associated with an increased risk of atypical fractures in select populations, and possibly with an increase in lower extremity amputation with specific SGLT2I drugs. The role of skeletal muscle, as a potential mediator and determinant of bone quality, is also a relevant area of exploration. Currently, data regarding the impact of glucose lowering medications on diabetes-related muscle atrophy is more limited, although preclinical studies suggest that various hypoglycemic agents may have either aggravating (sulfonylureas, glinides) or repairing (thiazolidinediones, biguanides, incretins) effects on skeletal muscle atrophy, thereby influencing bone quality. Hence, the therapeutic efficacy of each hypoglycemic agent must also be evaluated in light of its impact, alone or in combination, on musculoskeletal health, when determining an individualized treatment approach. Moreover, the effect of newer medications (potentially seeking expanded clinical indication into the pediatric age range) on the growing skeleton is largely unknown. Herein, we review the available literature regarding effects of diabetes pharmacotherapy, by drug class and/or by clinical indication, on the musculoskeletal health of persons with diabetes.

Abstract
Recent studies showed that in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), Sodium-dependent glucose transporters 2 inhibitor (SGLT2I) may cause potential adverse effects on the skeleton such as increasing the risk of fracture. This risk is possibly mediated by effects induced by all SGLT2I class drugs, but whether Dapagliflozin aggravates osteoporosis in patients with T2DM remains controversial. Therefore, we designed this study to explore how Dapagliflozin affects the metabolism and the quality of bone in T2DM animal models. The effect of Dapagliflozin on the skeleton was evaluated on male ZDF (Zucker Diabetic Fatty) rats-a rat model of diet induced spontaneous T2DM. Dapagliflozin was administrated via gavage at the dosage of 10 mg/kg/day. Bone tissue mineral density and the microarchitecture of tibiae were measured with micro-CT and biomechanics characteristic of the femora were tested using a three-point bending test. Serum bone biomarkers and other metabolic parameters were also tested via ELISA or other assays. Our results found that diabetic rats demonstrated symptoms of osteoporosis and Dapagliflozin could help to alleviate these defections caused by diabetes. Compared to the negative controls, the serum CT (calcitonin) level in ZDF rats as well as the uric calcium and phosphate levels were elevated, and these symptoms were alleviated by Dapagliflozin. Tibiae of Dapagliflozin treated rats demonstrated decreased cortical tissue mineral density while trabecular tissue mineral density and mean bone mineral density received a rise when compared to the matched controls. ZDF rats also showed defections in femora stiffness which could be relieved by Dapagliflozin administration. The mechanism of Dapagliflozin affecting bone quality is possibly connected to the suppression of serum calcitonin and excretion of calcium via urine rose by hyperglycemia. In conclusion, Dapagliflozin can prevent osteoporosis in ZDF rats by alleviating hypercalciuria.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Some antihyperglycemic medications have been found to affect bone metabolism. We assessed the long-term effects of metformin compared with placebo on bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS) in patients with type 2 diabetes. Metformin had no significant effect on BMD in the spine and hip or TBS compared with a placebo. INTRODUCTION Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have an increased risk of fractures despite a high bone mass. Some antihyperglycemic medications have been found to affect bone metabolism. We assessed the long-term effects of metformin compared with placebo on bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS). METHODS This was a sub-study of a multicenter, randomized, 18-month placebo-controlled, double-blinded trial with metformin vs. placebo in combination with different insulin regimens (the Copenhagen Insulin and Metformin Therapy trial) in patients with T2DM. BMD in the spine and hip and TBS in the spine were assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline and after 18 months follow-up. RESULTS Four hundred seven patients were included in this sub-study. There were no between-group differences in BMD or TBS. From baseline to 18 months, TBS decreased significantly in both groups (metformin group, - 0.041 [- 0.055, - 0.027]; placebo group - 0.046 [- 0.058, - 0.034]; both p < 0.001). BMD in the spine and total hip did not change significantly from baseline to 18 months. After adjustments for gender, age, vitamin D, smoking, BMI, duration of T2DM, HbA1c, and insulin dose, the TBS between-group differences increased but remained non-significant. HbA1c was negatively associated with TBS (p = 0.009) as was longer duration of diabetes, with the femoral neck BMD (p = 0.003). Body mass index had a positive effect on the hip and femoral neck BMD (p < 0.001, p = 0.045, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Eighteen months of treatment with metformin had no significant effect on BMD in the spine and hip or TBS in patients with T2DM compared with a placebo. TBS decreased significantly in both groups. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT00657943).

Abstract
Diabetes is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycaemia resulting from the defective action or secretion of insulin. Chronic hyperglycaemia can lead to the damage, dysfunction and failure of various organs. In the context of complications of healing and orthopaedic rehabilitation, vascular (microangiopathy) and nerve (neuropathy) disorders deserve particular attention. About 12% of the patients admitted to orthopaedic departments have diabetes. Studies indicate that there is an indisputable link between diabetes and: an increased risk of fractures, the difficult healing of injuries of bones, ligaments and musculotendinous. It appears that one of the main reasons for this is non-enzymatic glycosylation (glycation) of collagen molecules, a phenomenon observed in the elderly and diabetic populations, as it leads to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Collagen is one of the major connective tissue components, and is therefore part of ligaments, tendons and bones. AGEs affect the weakening of its structure and biomechanical properties, and thus also affects the weakening of the structure and properties of the above-mentioned tissues. The aim of the study is to undertake an overview of the current knowledge of the impact of diabetes on the risk of some injuries and subsequent healing and rehabilitation of patients following orthopaedic injuries.

Abstract
Diabetes is a common disease affecting majority of populations worldwide. Since 1980, there has been an increase in the number of people diagnosed as prediabetic and diabetic. Diabetes is characterized by high levels of circulating glucose and leads to most microvascular and macrovascular complications such as retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, stroke, and myocardial infarction. Bone marrow vascular disruption and increased adiposity are also linked to various complications in type II diabetes mellitus. In addition to these complications, type 2 diabetic patients also have fragile bones caused by faulty mineralization mainly due to increased adiposity among diabetic patients that affects both osteoblast and osteoclast functions. Other factors that increase fracture risk in diabetic patients are increased oxidative stress, inflammation, and drugs administered to diabetic patients. This review reports the modulation of different pathways that affect bone metabolism in diabetic conditions.

Metformin Affects Cortical Bone Mass and Marrow Adiposity in Diet-Induced Obesity in Male Mice. Endocrinology 2017; 158:3369-3385.

Abstract
Obesity during maturation can affect the growing skeleton directly and indirectly, although these effects and the mechanisms behind them are not fully understood. Our objective was to determine how a high-fat diet with or without metformin treatment affects skeletal development. We also sought to characterize changes that occur in white adipose tissue, circulating metabolites, lipids, and gut microbiota. A diet-induced obesity C57BL/6J mouse model was used to test the effects of obesity and metformin on bone using bone histomorphometry and microcomputed tomography. Bone marrow adipose tissue was quantified with osmium tetroxide microcomputed tomography and histology. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry was used to analyze body composition. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to assess changes in white adipose depots, mass spectrometry was used for circulating lipids and protein metabolite analysis, and ribosomal RNA sequencing was used for gut microbiome analysis. Mice fed a high fat-diet since wean displayed increased medullary areas and decreased osteoblast numbers in the long bones; this phenotype was partially normalized by metformin. Marrow and inguinal adipose expansion was also noted in obese mice, and this was partially normalized by metformin. A drug-by-diet interaction was noted for circulating lipid molecules, protein metabolites, and gut microbiome taxonomical units. Obesity was not detrimental to trabecular bone in growing mice, but bone marrow medullary expansion was observed, likely resulting from inhibition of osteoblastogenesis, and this was partially reversed by metformin treatment.

Abstract
Both diabetes and osteoporosis are assuming epidemic proportions throughout the world. Accumulating data suggest that both types 1 and 2 diabetes are associated with an increased risk of fragility fractures. This increased risk appears to be largely independent of bone mineral density (BMD) which is most often noted to be low in type 1 diabetes and normal or increased in type 2 diabetes. This review explores the clinical characteristics of bone fragility in patients with diabetes and highlights studies that have evaluated BMD and fracture prediction tools in these patients. It also briefly reviews the current management principles of osteoporosis in diabetes, with special emphasis on the impact of diabetes medications on bone health as well as explores the efficacy of currently available antiosteoporosis pharmacotherapy in the diabetic population.
