Shaik AR, Kohli S, Vohora D. Bone effects of metformin monotherapy and its combination with teneligliptin: A 12-week follow-up study in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2024; 213:111744. [PMID: 38878869 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2024.111744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024]
Abstract
AIMS The skeletal effects of metformin monotherapy and in combination with teneligliptin are not well illustrated in patients with T2DM. To address this, we conducted an observational study to evaluate the effect of these oral hypoglycemic agents on bone turnover markers. METHODS We recruited patients with T2DM and first-ever prescribed metformin monotherapy or metformin combined with teneligliptin from a tertiary care teaching hospital in New Delhi, North India. Both bone formation and resorption markers, IL-6 and PTD, were estimated along with glycated hemoglobin at baseline and 12 weeks. RESULTS In both groups, hbA1c levels decreased significantly from baseline to 12 weeks. In the metformin-treated group, β-CTX, sRANKL, IL-6, and PTD decreased significantly, and no significant changes were observed in P1NP, OC, BAP, or OPG at 12 weeks from baseline. In the metformin + teneligliptin group, BAP, β-CTX, sRANKL, IL-6, and PTD decreased significantly, and no significant changes were observed in P1NP, OC, or OPG after 12 weeks from baseline. CONCLUSIONS The positive bone outcome of metformin or teneligliptin was linked to bone resorption rather than bone formation and was independent of changes in HbA1c or PTD. However, these results must be confirmed with well-designed RCTs with more extended follow-up periods.

Abstract
Bone development and bone remodelling during adult life are highly anabolic processes requiring an adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients. Bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts interact closely to preserve bone mass and architecture and are often located close to blood vessels. Chondrocytes within the developing growth plate ensure that bone lengthening occurs before puberty, but these cells function in an avascular environment. With ageing, numerous bone marrow adipocytes appear, often with negative effects on bone properties. Many studies have now indicated that skeletal cells have specific metabolic profiles that correspond to the nutritional microenvironment and their stage-specific functions. These metabolic networks provide not only skeletal cells with sufficient energy, but also biosynthetic intermediates that are necessary for proliferation and extracellular matrix synthesis. Moreover, these metabolic pathways control redox homeostasis to avoid oxidative stress and safeguard cell survival. Finally, several intracellular metabolites regulate the activity of epigenetic enzymes and thus control the fate and function of skeletal cells. The metabolic profile of skeletal cells therefore not only reflects their cellular state, but can also drive cellular activity. Insight into skeletal cell metabolism will thus not only advance our understanding of skeletal development and homeostasis, but also of skeletal disorders, such as osteoarthritis, diabetic bone disease and bone malignancies.

Osteoking prevents bone loss and enhances osteoblastic bone formation by modulating the AGEs/IGF-1/β-catenin/OPG pathway in type 2 diabetic db/db mice. Cell Biol Int 2024.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetic osteoporosis (T2DOP) is a skeletal metabolic syndrome characterized by impaired bone remodeling due to type 2 diabetes mellitus, and there are drawbacks in the present treatment. Osteoking (OK) is widely used for treating fractures and femoral head necrosis. However, OK is seldom reported in the field of T2DOP, and its role and mechanism of action need to be elucidated. Consequently, this study investigated whether OK improves bone remodeling and the mechanisms of diabetes-induced injury. We used db/db mice as a T2DOP model and stimulated MC3T3-E1 cells (osteoblast cell line) with high glucose (HG, 50 mM) and advanced glycation end products (AGEs, 100 µg/mL), respectively. The effect of OK on T2DOP was assessed using a combined 3-point mechanical bending test, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The effect of OK on enhancing MC3T3-E1 cell differentiation and mineralization under HG and AGEs conditions was assessed by an alkaline phosphatase activity assay and alizarin red S staining. The AGEs/insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)/β-catenin/osteoprotegerin (OPG) pathway-associated protein levels were assayed by western blot analysis and immunohistochemical staining. We found that OK reduced hyperglycemia, attenuated bone damage, repaired bone remodeling, increased tibial and femoral IGF-1, β-catenin, and OPG expression, and decreased receptor activator of nuclear kappa B ligand and receptor activator of nuclear kappa B expression in db/db mice. Moreover, OK promoted the differentiation and mineralization of MC3T3-E1 cells under HG and AGEs conditions, respectively, and regulated the levels of AGEs/IGF-1/β-catenin/OPG pathway-associated proteins. In conclusion, our results suggest that OK may lower blood glucose, alleviate bone damage, and attenuate T2DOP, in part through activation of the AGEs/IGF-1/β-catenin/OPG pathway.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone metabolism disorder (CKD-MBD) is a common chronic kidney disease (CKD)-associated complication that increases the risk of metabolic bone diseases, fractures, osteoblastic trans-differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and cardiovascular events. SD rats were randomised into five groups with six rats per group: sham, CKD, CKD + advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), CKD + Quercetin, and CKD + AGEs + Quercetin. The protective effects of AGEs and quercetin on SD rats were assessed by renal function, renal pathology, bone metabolism, osteoblastic trans-differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and the receptor for AGE (RAGE) expression. Compared with the control group, rats in the CKD and CKD + AGEs groups had significantly lower body weight, higher serum AGEs levels, impaired renal function, increased levels of oxidative stress in the kidney and bone marrow tissues, lower femoral bone mineral density (BMD), callus mineralised volume fraction (mineralised bone volume/total volume), abnormal serum bone metabolism levels, and increased renal tissue, bone tissue, and abdominal aorta RAGE expression levels, and the RAGE downstream NF-κB signalling pathway was upregulated. Quercetin significantly improved renal dysfunction, attenuated serum AGE levels, reduced oxidative stress levels in the kidney and bone marrow tissues, and downregulated RAGE expression in the kidney, bone, and abdominal aorta and the RAGE downstream NF-κB signalling pathway in rats with CKD. AGEs are involved in the pathogenesis of CKD-MBD by promoting osteoblastic trans-differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells and abnormal bone metabolism. Quercetin plays a role in the prevention and treatment of CKD-MBD by reducing the production of AGEs.

Abstract
The treatment of diabetic periodontitis poses a significant challenge due to the presence of local inflammation characterized by excessive glucose concentration, bacterial infection, and high oxidative stress. Herein, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) are embellished with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and loaded with manganese carbonyl to prepare a carbon monoxide (CO) enhanced multienzyme cooperative hybrid nanoplatform (MSN-Au@CO). The Glucose-like oxidase activity of Au NPs catalyzes the oxidation of glucose to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and gluconic acid,and then converts H2O2 to hydroxyl radicals (•OH) by peroxidase-like activity to destroy bacteria. Moreover, CO production in response to H2O2, together with Au NPs exhibited a synergistic anti-inflammatory effect in macrophages challenged by lipopolysaccharides. The underlying mechanism can be the induction of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 to reduce reactive oxygen species, and inhibition of nuclear factor kappa-B signaling to diminish inflammatory response. Importantly, the antibacterial and anti-inflammation effects of MSN-Au@CO are validated in diabetic rats with ligature-induced periodontitis by showing decreased periodontal bone loss with good biocompatibility. To summarize, MSN-Au@CO is fabricate to utilize glucose-activated cascade reaction to eliminate bacteria, and synergize with gas therapy to regulate the immune microenvironment, offering a potential direction for the treatment of diabetic periodontitis.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with higher fracture risk, despite normal or high bone mineral density. We reported that bone formation genes (SOST and RUNX2) and advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) were impaired in T2D. We investigated Wnt signaling regulation and its association with AGEs accumulation and bone strength in T2D from bone tissue of 15 T2D and 21 non-diabetic postmenopausal women undergoing hip arthroplasty. Bone histomorphometry revealed a trend of low mineralized volume in T2D (T2D 0.249% [0.156-0.366]) vs non-diabetic subjects 0.352% [0.269-0.454]; p=0.053, as well as reduced bone strength (T2D 21.60 MPa [13.46-30.10] vs non-diabetic subjects 76.24 MPa [26.81-132.9]; p=0.002). We also showed that gene expression of Wnt agonists LEF-1 (p=0.0136) and WNT10B (p=0.0302) were lower in T2D. Conversely, gene expression of WNT5A (p=0.0232), SOST (p<0.0001), and GSK3B (p=0.0456) were higher, while collagen (COL1A1) was lower in T2D (p=0.0482). AGEs content was associated with SOST and WNT5A (r=0.9231, p<0.0001; r=0.6751, p=0.0322), but inversely correlated with LEF-1 and COL1A1 (r=-0.7500, p=0.0255; r=-0.9762, p=0.0004). SOST was associated with glycemic control and disease duration (r=0.4846, p=0.0043; r=0.7107, p=0.00174), whereas WNT5A and GSK3B were only correlated with glycemic control (r=0.5589, p=0.0037; r=0.4901, p=0.0051). Finally, Young's modulus was negatively correlated with SOST (r=-0.5675, p=0.0011), AXIN2 (r=-0.5523, p=0.0042), and SFRP5 (r=-0.4442, p=0.0437), while positively correlated with LEF-1 (r=0.4116, p=0.0295) and WNT10B (r=0.6697, p=0.0001). These findings suggest that Wnt signaling and AGEs could be the main determinants of bone fragility in T2D.

Abstract
The mineralized collagen fibril is the main building block of hard tissues and it directly affects the macroscopic mechanics of biological tissues such as bone. The mechanical behavior of the fibril itself is determined by its structure: the content of collagen molecules, minerals, and cross-links, and the mechanical interactions and properties of these components. Advanced-Glycation-Endproducts (AGEs) cross-linking between tropocollagen molecules within the collagen fibril is one important factor that is believed to have a major influence on the tissue. For instance, it has been shown that brittleness in bone correlates with increased AGEs densities. However, the underlying nano-scale mechanisms within the mineralized collagen fibril remain unknown. Here, we study the effect of mineral and AGEs cross-linking on fibril deformation and fracture behavior by performing destructive tensile tests using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations. Our results demonstrate that after exceeding a critical content of mineral, it induces stiffening of the collagen fibril at high strain levels. We show that mineral morphology and location affect collagen fibril mechanics: The mineral content at which this stiffening occurs depends on the mineral's location and morphology. Further, both, increasing AGEs density and mineral content lead to stiffening and increased peak stresses. At low mineral contents, the mechanical response of the fibril is dominated by the AGEs, while at high mineral contents, the mineral itself determines fibril mechanics.

Abstract
Pentosidine (PEN) is an Advanced Glycation End-product (AGE) that is known to accumulate in bone collagen with aging and contribute to fracture risk. The PEN content in bone is correlated with serum PEN, making it an attractive, potential osteoporosis biomarker. We sought to develop a method for quantifying PEN in stored serum. After conducting a systematic narrative review of PEN quantification methodologies, we developed a liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for quantifying total serum PEN. Our method is both sensitive and precise (LOD 2 nM, LOQ 5 nM, %CV < 6.5 % and recovery 91.2-100.7 %). Our method is also equivalent or better than other methods identified in our review. Additionally, LC-MS/MS avoids the pitfalls and limitations of using fluorescence as a means of detection and could be adapted to investigate a broad range of AGE compounds.

Abstract
Scopoletin is a coumarin synthesized by diverse medicinal and edible plants, which plays a vital role as a therapeutic and chemopreventive agent in the treatment of a variety of diseases. In this review, an overview of the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity of scopoletin is provided. In addition, the prospects and outlook for future studies are appraised. Scopoletin is indicated to have antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-inflammation, anti-angiogenesis, anti-oxidation, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, hepatoprotective, and neuroprotective properties and immunomodulatory effects in both in vitro and in vivo experimental trials. In addition, it is an inhibitor of various enzymes, including choline acetyltransferase, acetylcholinesterase, and monoamine oxidase. Pharmacokinetic studies have demonstrated the low bioavailability, rapid absorption, and extensive metabolism of scopoletin. These properties may be associated with its poor solubility in aqueous media. In addition, toxicity research indicates the non-toxicity of scopoletin to most cell types tested to date, suggesting that scopoletin will neither induce treatment-associated mortality nor abnormal performance with the test dose. Considering its favorable pharmacological activities, scopoletin has the potential to act as a drug candidate in the treatment of cancer, liver disease, diabetes, neurodegenerative disease, and mental disorders. In view of its merits and limitations, scopoletin is a suitable lead compound for the development of new, efficient, and low-toxicity derivatives. Additional studies are needed to explore its molecular mechanisms and targets, verify its toxicity, and promote its oral bioavailability.

[PMID: 38505219 PMCID: PMC10945729 DOI: 10.1093/jbmrpl/ziad018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 11/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 03/21/2024] Open
Abstract
It is unclear if AGEs are involved in the bone fragility of type 1 diabetes (T1D). We evaluated whether skin AGEs by skin autofluorescence and serum AGEs (pentosidine, carboxymethyl-lysine [CML]) are independently associated with BMD by DXA (lumbar spine, hip, distal radius), trabecular bone score (TBS), serum bone turnover markers (BTMs: CTX; P1NP; osteocalcin), and sclerostin in participants with and without T1D. Linear regression models were used, with interaction terms to test effect modification by T1D status. In participants with T1D, correlations between skin and serum AGEs as well as between AGEs and 3-year HbA1C were evaluated using Spearman's correlations. Data are mean ± SD or median (interquartile range). We included individuals who participated in a cross-sectional study and had BMD and TBS assessment (106 T1D/65 controls, 53.2% women, age 43 ± 15 yr, BMI 26.6 ± 5.5 kg/m2). Participants with T1D had diabetes for 27.6 ± 12.3 yr, a mean 3-yr HbA1C of 7.5 ± 0.9% and skin AGEs of 2.15 ± 0.54 arbitrary units. A subgroup of 65 T1D/57 controls had BTMs and sclerostin measurements, and those with T1D also had serum pentosidine (16.8[8.2-32.0] ng/mL) and CML [48.0 ± 16.8] ng/mL) measured. Femoral neck BMD, TBS, and BTMs were lower, while sclerostin levels were similar in participants with T1D vs controls. T1D status did not modify the associations between AGEs and bone outcomes. Skin AGEs were significantly associated with total hip and femoral neck BMD, TBS, BTMs, and sclerostin before, but not after, adjustment for confounders. Serum AGEs were not associated with any bone outcome. There were no significant correlations between skin and serum AGEs or between AGEs and 3-yr HbA1C. In conclusion, skin and serum AGEs are not independently associated with BMD, TBS, BTMs, and sclerostin in participants with relatively well-controlled T1D and participants without diabetes.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is associated with a disproportionately high fracture rate despite a minimal decrease in bone mineral density. Though trabecular bone score (TBS), an indirect measure of bone architecture, is lower in adults with T1DM, the modest difference is unlikely to account for the large excess risk and calls for further exploration. INTRODUCTION Fracture rates in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) are disproportionately high compared to the modestly low bone mineral density (BMD). Distortion of bone microarchitecture compromises bone quality in T1DM and is indirectly measured by trabecular bone score (TBS). TBS could potentially be used as a screening tool for skeletal assessment; however, there are inconsistencies in the studies evaluating TBS in T1DM. We performed this meta-analysis to address this knowledge gap. METHODS An electronic literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science resources (all-year time span) to identify studies relating to TBS in T1DM. Cross-sectional and retrospective studies in adults with T1DM were included. TBS and BMD data were extracted for pooled analysis. Fracture risk could not be analyzed as there were insufficient studies reporting it. RESULT Data from six studies were included (T1DM: n = 378 and controls: n = 286). Pooled analysis showed a significantly lower TBS [standardized mean difference (SMD) = - 0.37, 95% CI - 0.52 to - 0.21; p < 0.00001] in T1DM compared to controls. There was no difference in the lumbar spine BMD (6 studies, SMD - 0.06, 95% CI - 0.22 to 0.09; p = 0.43) and total hip BMD (6 studies, SMD - 0.17, 95% CI - 0.35 to 0.01; p = 0.06) in the case and control groups. CONCLUSIONS Adults with T1DM have a lower TBS but similar total hip and lumbar spine BMD compared to controls. The risk attributable to the significant but limited difference in TBS falls short of explaining the large excess propensity to fragility fracture in adults with T1DM. Further studies on clarification of the mechanism and whether TBS is suited to screen for fracture risk in adults with T1DM are necessary.

Diabetes-related Screw Loosening: The Distinction of Surgical Sites and the Relationship among Diabetes, Implant Stabilization and Clinical Outcomes. Orthop Surg 2023; 15:3136-3145. [PMID: 37853938 PMCID: PMC10694010 DOI: 10.1111/os.13915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/20/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diabetes mellitus (DM) is correlated with poor clinical outcomes in spinal surgery. However, the effect of it on screw stabilization has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the screw loosening rate and postoperative outcomes in diabetic patients and to identify potential risk factors associated with loosening. METHODS This was a retrospective study. Two hundred and forty-three patients who received cervical or lumbar internal fixation between 2015 and 2019 were enrolled. Screw loosening was assessed on radiography, and clinical outcomes were evaluated by the improvement of visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI) or Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores. The relationship of DM, screw loosening and clinical outcomes were analyzed with chi-square tests and regression analyses. RESULTS One hundred and twenty-two patients (50.2%) with diabetes were included in this study. Diabetes led to the increase of the rate of screw loosening in the lumbar spine, while the loosening rate did not vary significantly in the cervical spine. The occurrence of screw loosening in the lumbar spine was more likely to be associated with clinical outcomes for motor performance including walking and sitting. However, no significant effect on JOA and VAS scores in the cervical spine of screw loosening was found. Moreover, the history of DM affected the outcomes of the patients who underwent spinal surgery. CONCLUSION DM had an adverse effect on screw stabilization. The impaired improvement of clinical outcomes in diabetics after spinal surgery was related to screw loosening. In addition to the direct effects on operative wounds and neural function, the impact on the screws due to DM was also worth noting.

Intra-articular site-specific distribution of advanced glycation end products in the shoulder of patients with diabetes mellitus having rotator cuff tears. Mol Biol Rep 2023; 50:10339-10349. [PMID: 37982930 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-023-08861-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are compounds formed due to aging and diabetes mellitus (DM). They activate NADPH oxidase (NOX) by binding to their receptors, thereby increasing the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which cause oxidative stress. In this study, we investigated the effects of AGEs on the tissues of the shoulder joint (such as rotator cuff synovium, and capsule) in patients with DM having rotator cuff tears. METHODS This study included eight patients with DM who underwent surgical treatment for rotator cuff tears with contracture. The rotator cuff, synovium, and joint capsule were harvested at the time of surgery and evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin staining. Furthermore, immunostaining was used for evaluating AGEs and receptor for AGEs (RAGE), cell activity, ROS, and apoptosis. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was employed for the cellular evaluation of NOX, interleukins, RAGE, and collagen. RESULTS The AGEs and RAGE staining as well as the ratio of ROS and apoptosis were in the following order: rotator cuff > joint capsule > synovium. In contrast, the cellular activity was significantly higher in the synovium than in the other regions. The type I collagen expression (as shown by qPCR) as well as the RAGE and NOX expressions were as follows: rotator cuff > joint capsule > synovium. Conversely, the expression of inflammatory cytokines (i.e., IL-6 and IL-1β) was higher in the synovium than in the other regions. CONCLUSIONS Our study is among the first to evaluate the effects of AGEs on each tissue of the shoulder joint in patients with DM having rotator cuff tears and contractures. The accumulation of AGEs in each tissue of the shoulder joint could reveal the locations affected by DM, which can lead to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of DM-related shoulder diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple pathogenetic mechanisms are involved in the genesis of various microvascular and macrovascular complications of diabetes mellitus. Of all these, advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been strongly implicated. OBJECTIVES The present narrative review aims to summarize the available literature on the genesis of AGEs and their potential role in the causation of both micro- and macrovascular complications of diabetes mellitus. RESULTS Uncontrolled hyperglycemia triggers the formation of AGEs through non-enzymatic glycation reactions between reducing sugars and proteins, lipids, or nucleic acids. AGEs accumulate in bloodstream and bodily tissues under chronic hyperglycemia. AGEs create irreversible cross-linkages of various intra- and extracellular molecules and activate the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), which stimulates downstream signaling pathways that generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and contribute to oxidative stress. Additionally, intracellular glycation of mitochondrial respiratory chain proteins by AGEs contributes to the further generation of ROS, which, in turn, sets a vicious cycle that further promotes the production of endogenous AGEs. Through these pathways, AGEs play a principal role in the pathogenesis of various diabetic complications, including diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, bone disease, atherosclerosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Multiple clinical studies and meta-analyses have revealed a positive association between tissue or circulating levels of AGEs and development of various diabetic complications. Besides, exogenous AGEs, primarily those derived from diets, promote insulin resistance, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. CONCLUSIONS AGEs, triggered by chronic hyperglycemia, play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of various complications of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia and oxidative stress, enhanced in diabetes and aging, result in excessive accumulation of advanced glycation and glycoxidation end products (AGEs/AGOEs) in bone. AGEs/AGOES are considered to be "the missing link" in explaining increased skeletal fragility with diabetes, aging, and osteoporosis where increased fracture risk cannot be solely explained by bone mass and/or fall incidences. AGEs/AGOEs disrupt bone turnover and deteriorate bone quality through alterations of organic matrix (collagen and non-collagenous proteins), mineral, and water content. AGEs and AGOEs are also associated with bone fragility in other conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, circadian rhythm disruption, and cancer. This review explains how AGEs and AGOEs accumulate in bone and impact bone quality and bone fracture, and how AGES/AGOEs are being targeted in preclinical and clinical investigations for inhibition or removal, and for prediction and management of diabetic, osteoporotic and insufficiency fractures.

Abstract
Atrophic nonunion (AN) is a complex and poorly understood pathological condition resulting from impaired fracture healing. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of several bone disorders, including osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. However, the role of AGEs in the development of AN remains unclear. This study found that mice fed a high-AGE diet had a higher incidence of atrophic nonunion (AN) compared to mice fed a normal diet following tibial fractures. AGEs induced two C-terminal binding proteins (CtBPs), CtBP1 and CtBP2, which were necessary for the development of AN in response to AGE accumulation. Feeding a high-AGE diet after fracture surgery in CtBP1/2-/- and RAGE-/- (receptor of AGE) mice did not result in a significant occurrence of AN. Molecular investigation revealed that CtBP1 and CtBP2 formed a heterodimer that was recruited by histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) to assemble a complex. The CtBP1/2-HDAC1-Runx2 complex was responsible for the downregulation of two classes of bone development and differentiation genes, including bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). These findings demonstrate that AGE accumulation promotes the incidence of AN in a CtBP1/2-dependent manner, possibly by modulating genes related to bone development and fracture healing. These results provide new insights into the pathogenesis of AN and suggest new therapeutic targets for its prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Type I diabetes (T1D) impairs bone accrual in patients, but the mechanism is unclear. Here in a murine monogenic model for T1D, we demonstrate that diabetes suppresses bone formation resulting in a rapid loss of both cortical and trabecular bone. Single-cell RNA sequencing uncovers metabolic dysregulation in bone marrow osteogenic cells of diabetic mice. In vivo stable isotope tracing reveals impaired glycolysis in diabetic bone that is highly responsive to insulin stimulation. Remarkably, deletion of the insulin receptor reduces cortical but not trabecular bone. Increasing glucose uptake by overexpressing Glut1 in osteoblasts exacerbates bone defects in T1D mice. Conversely, activation of glycolysis by Pfkfb3 overexpression preserves both trabecular and cortical bone mass in the face of diabetes. The study identifies defective glucose metabolism in osteoblasts as a pathogenic mechanism for osteopenia in T1D, and furthermore implicates boosting osteoblast glycolysis as a potential bone anabolic therapy.

Material and methods A analysis of publications in MEDLINE, COCHRANE and SCOPUS databases was performed, searching for reports on the diagnostics, fracture risk assessment, prevention, and treatment of osteoporosis in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) published in the years 2016-2022. The key words for the search were: diabetes, osteoporosis, and low-energy fracture. Results Bone complications of T1DM are more severe than T2DM, because of the lack of anabolic effect of insulin on bones. In T2DM the risk of fractures is elevated; however, identifying the mechanisms underlying the increased risk of fractures in T2DM is not clear. The FRAX tool is not appropriate for assessing the fracture risk in young patients with T1DM. It is quite useful in older patients with T2DM, but in these patients the calculated fracture risk may be underestimated. In T2DM the fracture risk often does not correspond to BMD value as measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Diagnostic tools such as the trabecular bone score may play a significant role in this group of patients. Conclusions: Optimal strategies to identify and treat high risk individuals require further research and proper definition. The diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis should be clearly defined as well as fracture risk assessment and choice of anti-osteoporotic medication. In all cases of secondary osteoporosis, treatment of the underlying disease is the most important. The relationship between high risk of fractures and diabetes is inseparable, and its full understanding seems to be the key to effective management.

Abstract
Background and objective Diabetes is one of the most prevalent diseases globally, affecting almost all organ systems. The relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and bone mineral density (BMD) has been a matter of controversy, and data from developing countries in this regard is highly scarce. Early detection of low BMD in diabetic patients will help prevent further bone loss and risk of fragility fracture. In this study, we aimed to assess the effect of T2DM on BMD among the rural population of Haryana, India. Materials and methods This was a cross-sectional study involving 850 patients between 25 and 60 years of age, including 425 diabetic and 425 non-diabetic subjects (as controls). Calcaneus BMD was measured by using quantitative ultrasound (QUS), and the data were compared against matched parameters in both groups. Results The mean age of diabetics was 42.21 ± 10.5 years and that of non-diabetics was 42.18 ± 10.4 years. The mean BMI was 27.8 ± 4.17 kg/m2 in diabetics and 21.6 ± 3.32 kg/m2 in the non-diabetic control group. BMD values significantly differed between the groups: -4.3 ± 1.23 vs. -2.6 ± 0.34 in diabetics and non-diabetics, respectively (p=0.002). Conclusion A significant difference in BMD was observed between the diabetic and non-diabetic groups. Based on our findings, We recommend that all type 2 diabetics be screened for osteoporosis so that this silent bone loss can be detected in the early phase itself and appropriate preventive measures can be promptly initiated.

A pilot study on the comparative evaluation of residual periodontal ligament in extracted teeth of chronic periodontitis patients with and without type 2 diabetes - Vital function of an occult dimension. J Indian Soc Periodontol 2023; 27:492-495. [PMID: 37781325 PMCID: PMC10538510 DOI: 10.4103/jisp.jisp_522_22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 03/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Periodontitis is the most common type of periodontal condition, primarily affecting middle-aged people and resulting in tooth loss; when combined with diabetes, it becomes a debilitating condition. The aim of this study is to compare the residual periodontal ligament length in periodontitis patients with and without diabetes. Materials and Methods The cross-sectional observational study was conducted in the department of periodontics over 5 months. The patients in the study were divided into two groups. Group 1 comprised patients with periodontitis without type 2 diabetes and Group 2 comprised patients with periodontitis with type 2 diabetes. A total of 100 teeth 50 from each group were collected. The teeth were stained, and the Residual Periodontal Ligament (RPL) of all tooth aspects and surfaces to a total of 544 were measured. Two points were identified for measuring the RPL. The first point was from the apex of the tooth and the second point was the highest marking of the stain. The length from these two points was recorded as the RPL. Following which, means from Groups 1 and 2 were calculated to determine the rate of destruction. The average of the values for each tooth was calculated to determine the percentage of RPL in each tooth and surface. The Mann-Whitney test was used to compare the RPL of the teeth surfaces and Group 1 and Group 2 and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results The RPL was higher in nondiabetic patients, with a mean value of 23.66 mm, when compared to diabetic patients, with a mean RPL of 17.05 mm, implying that diabetic patients showed greater periodontal destruction. Buccal tooth surfaces displayed a mean RPL of 4.24 mm and 6.00 mm, lingual/palatal tooth surfaces with 4.02 mm and 5.91 mm, mesial tooth surfaces with 3.82 mm and 5.64 mm, and distal tooth surfaces showed 4.14 mm and 5.67 mm (diabetic and nondiabetic, respectively) with (P < 0.001) found to be statistically significant. Conclusion This study observed that the destruction rate of the periodontal ligament was higher in diabetic teeth than in nondiabetic teeth, implying that patients with metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes influence the response of periodontal tissues to periodontitis and that hyperglycemia impacts the periodontal ligament either directly or indirectly.

Abstract
Two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) detects myocardial dysfunction despite a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has become a promising biomarker of cardiovascular risk. This study aimed to determine whether FGF23 may be used as a marker of myocardial damage among patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) and no previous history of myocardial infarction. The study enrolled 71 patients with a median age of 70 years. Laboratory data were analyzed retrospectively. Serum FGF23 levels were determined using a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. All patients underwent conventional echocardiography and 2DSTE. Baseline characteristics indicated that the median time elapsed since diagnosis with T2DM was 19 years. All subjects were divided into two groups according to left ventricular diastolic function. Individuals with confirmed left ventricular diastolic dysfunction had significantly lower levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate and higher values of hemoglobin A1c. Global circumferential strain (GCS) was reduced in the majority of patients. Only an epicardial GCS correlated significantly with the FGF23 concentration in all patients. The study indicates that a cardiac strain is a reliable tool for a subtle myocardial damage assessment. It is possible that FGF23 may become an early diagnostic marker of myocardial damage in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
CONTEXT The risk of fragility fractures is increased in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Numerous biochemical markers reflecting bone and/or glucose metabolism have been evaluated in this context. This review summarizes current data on biochemical markers in relation to bone fragility and fracture risk in diabetes. METHODS Literature review by a group of experts from the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) and European Calcified Tissue Society (ECTS) focusing on biochemical markers, diabetes, diabetes treatments and bone in adults. RESULTS Although bone resorption and bone formation markers are low and poorly predictive of fracture risk in diabetes, osteoporosis drugs seem to change bone turnover markers in diabetics similarly to non-diabetics, with similar reductions in fracture risk. Several other biochemical markers related to bone and glucose metabolism have been correlated with BMD and/or fracture risk in diabetes, including osteocyte-related markers such as sclerostin, HbA1c and advanced glycation end products (AGEs), inflammatory markers and adipokines, as well as IGF-1 and calciotropic hormones. CONCLUSION Several biochemical markers and hormonal levels related to bone and/or glucose metabolism have been associated with skeletal parameters in diabetes. Currently, only HbA1c levels seem to provide a reliable estimate of fracture risk, while bone turnover markers could be used to monitor the effects of anti-osteoporosis therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) microenvironment will accelerate the accumulation of Advanced glycation end products (AGEs), adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have poor osteogenesis in the DM microenvironment. Studies suggest autophagy plays a vital role in osteogenesis, but the mechanism of the altered osteogenic potential of ASCs has not been elucidated. Bone tissue engineering by ASCs is widely used in the treatment of bone defects with diabetic osteoporosis (DOP). Therefore, it is meaningful to explore the effect of AGEs on the osteogenic differentiation potential of ASCs and its potential mechanism for the repair of bone defects in DOP. MATERIALS AND METHODS ASCs in C57BL/6 mice were isolated, cultured, then treated with AGEs, subsequently, cell viability and proliferation were detected through Cell Counting Kit 8 assay. 3-Methyladenine (3-MA), an autophagic inhibitor used to inhibit autophagic levels. Rapamycin (Rapa), an autophagy activator that further activated autophagy levels by inhibiting mTOR.The osteogenesis and autophagy changes of ASCs were analyzed by flow cytometry, qPCR, western blot, immunofluorescence, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red staining. RESULTS AGEs reduced the autophagy level and osteogenic potential of ASCs. After 3-MA reduced autophagy, the osteogenic potential of ASCs also decreased. AGEs co-treatment with 3-MA, the levels of osteogenesis and autophagy reduced more significantly. When autophagy was activated by Rapa, it was found that it could rescue the reduced osteogenic potential of AGEs. CONCLUSIONS AGEs reduce the osteogenic differentiation potential of ASCs through autophagy, and may provide a reference for the treatment of bone defects with diabetes osteoporosis.

Abstract
Individuals with Type-2 Diabetes (T2D) have an increased risk of bone fracture, without a reduction in bone mineral density. It is hypothesised that the hyperglycaemic state caused by T2D forms an excess of Advanced Glycated End-products (AGEs) in the organic matrix of bone, which are thought to stiffen the collagen network and lead to impaired mechanical properties. However, the mechanisms are not well understood. This study aimed to investigate the geometrical, structural and material properties of diabetic cortical bone during the development and progression of T2D in ZDF (fa/fa) rats at 12-, 26- and 46-weeks of age. Longitudinal bone growth was impaired as early as 12-weeks of age and by 46-weeks bone size was significantly reduced in ZDF (fa/fa) rats versus controls (fa/+). Diabetic rats had significant structural deficits, such as bending rigidity, ultimate moment and energy-to-failure measured via three-point bend testing. Tissue material properties, measured by taking bone geometry into account, were altered as the disease progressed, with significant reductions in yield and ultimate strength for ZDF (fa/fa) rats at 46-weeks. FTIR analysis on cortical bone powder demonstrated that the tissue material deficits coincided with changes in tissue composition, in ZDF (fa/fa) rats with long-term diabetes having a reduced carbonate:phosphate ratio and increased acid phosphate content when compared to age-matched controls, indicative of an altered bone turnover process. AGE accumulation, measured via fluorescent assays, was higher in the skin of ZDF (fa/fa) rats with long-term T2D, bone AGEs did not differ between strains and neither AGEs correlated with bone strength. In conclusion, bone fragility in the diabetic ZDF (fa/fa) rats likely occurs through a multifactorial mechanism influenced initially by impaired bone growth and development and proceeding to an altered bone turnover process that reduces bone quality and impairs biomechanical properties as the disease progresses.

Abstract
Background Osteopenia and fragile fractures are diabetes-associated complications. Many hypoglycemic drugs have effects on bone metabolism. Metformin, as is a prescribed medication for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), had been reported to have osteoprotective effects beyond its hypoglycemic effect, however the potential mechanism behind these effects remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the comprehensive effects of metformin on bone metabolism in T2DM rat model and elucidate the potential mechanism. Methods Goto-Kakizaki spontaneous T2DM rats with significant hyperglycemia were treated with/without metformin for 20 weeks. Glucose tolerance was tested and all rats were weighed every two weeks. The osteoprotective effects of metformin in diabetic rats were determined by quantifying serum bone biomarkers, μ-CT imaging, histological staining, bone histomorphometry, and biomechanical properties analyses. Potential targets of metformin in the treatment of T2DM and osteoporosis were predicted using network pharmacology. The effects of metformin on mesenchymal stem cells (C3H10) cultured in high glucose medium were evaluated by CCK-8 assay, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, qPCR and western blotting. Results This study demonstrated that metformin significantly attenuated osteopenia, decreased serum glucose and glycated serum protein (GSP) levels, improved bone microarchitecture, and biomechanical properties in GK rats with T2DM. Metformin significantly increased biomarkers of bone formation, and significantly decreased muscle ubiquitin C (Ubc) expression. Network pharmacology analysis found that signal transducer and activator of transcription1 (STAT1) would be a potential target of metformin for regulating bone metabolism. Metformin increased C3H10 cell viability in vitro, alleviated ALP inhibition caused by hyperglycemia, increased the osteogenic gene expression of runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), collagen type I alpha 1 (Col1a1), osteocalcin (OCN), and ALP, while suppressing RAGE and STAT1 expression. Metformin also increased the protein expression of Osterix and decreased that of RAGE, p-JAK2, and p-STAT1. Conclusions Our results demonstrate that metformin attenuated osteopenia and improved bone microarchitecture in GK rats with T2DM and significantly promoted stem cell osteogenic differentiation under high glucose condition. The effects of metformin on bone metabolism are closely associated with the suppression of RAGE-JAK2-STAT1 signaling axis. The translational potential of this article Our research provides experiment evidence and potential mechanistic rationale for the use of metformin as an effective candidate for diabetes-induced osteopenia treatment.

Abstract
Metabolic abnormalities, such as diabetes mellitus and obesity, can impact bone quantity and/or bone quality. In this work, we characterize bone material properties, in terms of structure and composition, in a novel rat model with congenic leptin receptor (LepR) deficiency, severe obesity, and hyperglycemia (type 2 diabetes-like condition). Femurs and calvaria (parietal region) from 20-week-old male rats are examined to probe bones formed both by endochondral and intramembranous ossification. Compared to the healthy controls, the LepR-deficient animals display significant alterations in femur microarchitecture and in calvarium morphology when analyzed by micro-computed X-ray tomography (micro-CT). In particular, shorter femurs with reduced bone volume, combined with thinner parietal bones and shorter sagittal suture, point towards a delay in the skeletal development of the LepR-deficient rodents. On the other hand, LepR-deficient animals and healthy controls display analogous bone matrix composition, which is assessed in terms of tissue mineral density by micro-CT, degree of mineralization by quantitative backscattered electron imaging, and various metrics extrapolated from Raman hyperspectral images. Some specific microstructural features, i.e., mineralized cartilage islands in the femurs and hyper-mineralized areas in the parietal bones, also show comparable distribution and characteristics in both groups. Overall, the altered bone microarchitecture in the LepR-deficient animals indicates compromised bone quality, despite the normal bone matrix composition. The delayed development is also consistent with observations in humans with congenic Lep/LepR deficiency, making this animal model a suitable candidate for translational research.

World J Diabetes 2023; 14:222-233. [PMID: 37035231 PMCID: PMC10075039 DOI: 10.4239/wjd.v14.i3.222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Revised: 01/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are diabetic metabolic toxic products that cannot be ignored. Nε-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), a component of AGEs, could increase macrophage lipid uptake, promote foam cell formation, and thereby accelerate atherosclerosis. The receptor for AGEs (RAGE) and cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) were the receptors of CML. However, it is still unknown whether RAGE and CD36 play key roles in CML-promoted lipid uptake.
AIM Our study aimed to explore the role of RAGE and CD36 in CML-induced mac-rophage lipid uptake.
METHODS In this study, we examined the effect of CML on lipid uptake by Raw264.7 macrophages. After adding 10 mmol/L CML, the lipid accumulation in macro-phages was confirmed by oil red O staining. Expression changes of CD36 and RAGE were detected with immunoblotting and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The interaction between CML with CD36 and RAGE was verified by immunoprecipitation. We synthesized a novel N-succinimidyl-4-18F-fluorobenzoate-CML radioactive probe. Radioactive receptor-ligand binding assays were performed to test the binding affinity between CML with CD36 and RAGE. The effects of blocking CD36 or RAGE on CML-promoting lipid uptake were also detected.
RESULTS The study revealed that CML significantly promoted lipid uptake by macro-phages. Immunoprecipitation and radioactive receptor-ligand binding assays indicated that CML could specifically bind to both CD36 and RAGE. CML had a higher affinity for CD36 than RAGE. ARG82, ASN71, and THR70 were the potential interacting amino acids that CD36 binds to CML Anti-CD36 and anti-RAGE could block the uptake of CML by macrophages. The lipid uptake promotion effect of CML was significantly attenuated after blocking CD36 or RAGE.
CONCLUSION Our results suggest that the binding of CML with CD36 and RAGE promotes macrophage lipid uptake.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease are common diseases encountered globally, especially with advancing age. Osteoporosis occurs when there is a loss of bone mineral density leading to increased predisposition to fragility fracture. The conventional perception of osteoporosis is purely as a metabolic bone disease. However, there are mounting reports from recent studies that osteoporosis could be seen as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease just like other traditional risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidaemia and diabetes. This is a paradigm shift with regards to the outlook of osteoporosis. Osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease have similar risk factors, including diabetes, smoking, excess alcohol, sedentary lifestyle, ageing and dyslipidaemia. This may partly explain the link between osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. In addition, both osteoporosis and atherosclerosis, which underlies most cardiovascular disease, are both characterized by low grade chronic inflammation. Moreover, the processes involved in the calcification of atheroma are similar to what is seen in bone remodeling. Both processes also involve similar regulators such as osteoprotegerin and related proteins such as osteonectin, osteopontin and type 1 collagen are found in bone matrix and atheromatous plaques. CONCLUSION There is emerging evidence that individuals with osteoporosis are also at an increased risk of coronary artery disease and stroke even after controlling for other factors. The traditional risk factors for cardiovascular disease also predispose people to developing osteoporosis, suggesting that the same mechanism may be causing the two. Moreover, a number of anti-osteoporotic drugs have also been largely linked with cardiovascular disease. This calls for a change in the view of osteoporosis as a metabolic disease but as a cardio-metabolic disorder thereby emphasizing the need for intensified preventive strategies for the disease.

Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2023; 16:31-36. [PMID: 36760582 PMCID: PMC9843232 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s389964] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Diabetes increases the risk of fragility fractures. As a result, when choosing a diabetes treatment, whether the drug affects bone density should be taken into account. The goal of this study was to determine how switching from dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) to glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) influenced bone mineral density (BMD) in diabetic patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, diabetic patients with osteoporosis or osteopenia who used DPP-4i but not anti-osteoporosis medications were divided into two groups: those who switched to GLP-1RA (n = 132) and those who did not (control group, n = 133). We compared changes in glycemic control and BMD with and without conversion from DPP-4i to GLP-1RA. RESULTS Prior to switching, there was no difference between the groups in terms of age, gender, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), or BMD. HbA1c was 8.7% in the participants (mean age 62.7 years, 17.4% female). Despite the fact that there was no difference in femoral neck BMD, the GLP-1RA group had a greater decrease in lumbar spine BMD (-0.028 g/cm2 versus -0.019 g/cm2, p = 0.041) than the control group. Furthermore, HbA1c levels in the GLP-1RA-treated group were considerably lower than in the control group (7.5% versus 8.0%, p = 0.027). CONCLUSION While switching to GLP-1RA improves glycemic control, it appears to have a less favorable effect on bone density than continuing DPP-4i. More research is needed, however, to determine whether diabetic patients with low bone density should be switched from DPP-4i to GLP-1RA.

Abstract
Bone degeneration associated with various diseases is increasing due to rapid aging, sedentary lifestyles, and unhealthy diets. Living bone tissue has bioelectric properties critical to bone remodeling, and bone degeneration under various pathological conditions results in significant changes to these bioelectric properties. There is growing interest in utilizing biomimetic electroactive biomaterials that recapitulate the natural electrophysiological microenvironment of healthy bone tissue to promote bone repair. This review first summarizes the etiology of degenerative bone conditions associated with various diseases such as type II diabetes, osteoporosis, periodontitis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteomyelitis, and metastatic osteolysis. Next, the diverse array of natural and synthetic electroactive biomaterials with therapeutic potential are discussed. Putative mechanistic pathways by which electroactive biomaterials can mitigate bone degeneration are critically examined, including the enhancement of osteogenesis and angiogenesis, suppression of inflammation and osteoclastogenesis, as well as their anti-bacterial effects. Finally, the limited research on utilization of electroactive biomaterials in the treatment of bone degeneration associated with the aforementioned diseases are examined. Previous studies have mostly focused on using electroactive biomaterials to treat bone traumatic injuries. It is hoped that this review will encourage more research efforts on the use of electroactive biomaterials for treating degenerative bone conditions.

Diabetes Mellitus is Associated with Poor Bone Microarchitecture in Older Adults Residing in Long-Term Care Facilities. J Osteoporos 2022; 2022:2522014.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Both diabetes mellitus (DM) and osteoporosis are very common in older adults who reside in long-term care (LTC) facilities. Nevertheless, few studies have examined the relationship between diabetes and bone quality in this population. The purpose of this study is to determine if bone mineral density (BMD) or trabecular bone score (TBS) is a better measure of bone quality and skeletal health, in LTC residents with and without a history of DM. Methodology. In this longitudinal cohort study, we examined baseline BMD (lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck), TBS, DM, and functional status in 511 LTC residents who were enrolled in two ongoing randomized placebo-controlled osteoporosis clinical trials. RESULTS On average, participants were older than 80 years and majority were prefrail or frail. Women with DM had greater lumbar spine BMD (1.106 vs 1.017, adjusted difference ± standard error = 0.084 ± 0.023 g/cm2, p = 0.0003) and femoral neck BMD (0.695 vs 0.651, 0.027 ± 0.013 g/cm2, p = 0.0463), but lesser lumbar spine TBS (1.211 vs 1.266, -0.036 ± 0.016, p = 0.0299) compared to women without DM. Total hip BMD was also higher based on descriptive statistics (0.780 vs 0.734, p = 0.6255) in diabetic women, although the difference was not statistically significant. Men had similar but attenuated findings. CONCLUSIONS Among LTC residents, those with DM have greater BMD but lower bone quality measured by TBS. TBS should be considered in assessing older patients with DM. However, further studies are required to confirm the findings with respect to fractures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) caused by type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) have a heightened fracture risk. Bone mineral density (BMD) may predict fracture less accurately in ESKD than in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 1-3b or the general population. Alternate, readily available imaging modalities are needed to improve ESKD fracture risk assessment. This study aimed to assess dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-derived BMD, the trabecular bone score (TBS) and advanced hip analysis parameters in patients with ESKD due to T1DM and to compare their results with those of patients with ESKD from other causes. METHODS We compared the DXA-derived TBS, hip cortical thickness (CT) and femoral neck (FN) buckling ratio (BR), an index of FN stability, of patients with T1DM and ESKD undergoing simultaneous pancreas kidney transplantation, patients with ESKD from other causes receiving kidney transplants and population reference ranges. RESULTS Of 227 patients with ESKD, 28% had T1DM and 65% were male. Compared with other ESKD patients, patients with T1DM were younger (42 ± 7.7 vs 51 ± 13.8 years), had shorter dialysis duration (24.4 ± 21 vs 42.6 ± 40 months), had higher HbA1c (7.9 ± 1.57% vs 5.4 ± 0.95%) and had lower BMI (25 ± 6 vs 27 ± 5 kg/m2). They had lower spine, hip and UD radius BMD Z-scores (all P ≤ 0.001), TBS (1.33 ± 0.12 vs 1.36 ± 0.12; P = 0.05), CT at the FN (P = 0.03), calcar (P = 0.006) and shaft (P < 0.001) and higher BR (10.1±7.1 vs 7.7±4; P = 0.006). All ESKD parameters were lower than population-based reference ranges (P < 0.001). Adjusting for age, sex, dialysis vintage and weight, prevalent vertebral fractures in patients with T1DM and ESKD were associated with higher BR (odds ratio (OR): 3.27 (95% CI: 1.19-8.92), P = 0.002) and lower FN CT (OR: 3.70 (95% CI: 1.13-12.50)). CONCLUSION Patients with ESKD and T1DM have reduced TBS, reduced CT and increased BR compared with other ESKD patients. Prospective study of these parameters is warranted to determine their utility in fracture risk prediction and management. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Patients with ESKD and T1DM have an elevated fracture risk due to decreased bone strength. As an adjunct to BMD, evaluating dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry parameters that incorporate structural change may have greater value in patients with ESKD and T1DM than in the general population. In this study, patients with ESKD due to T1DM had lower BMD, lower trabecular bone scores, more severe loss of CT and higher BR than other patients with ESKD and people from the general population. Both lower CT and higher BR were associated with prevalent vertebral fractures in patients with T1DM and ESKD. Changes to these parameters should be evaluated for incident fracture prediction.

Abstract
The role of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in bone fragility especially in diabetic bone disease is increasingly recognized and researched. As skeletal frailty in diabetes does not correlate to bone mineral density (BMD) in the same way as in postmenopausal osteoporosis, BMD may not be a suitable measure of bone quality in persons with diabetes. Abundant research exists upon the effect of AGEs on bone, and though full understanding of the mechanisms of actions does not yet exist, there is little doubt of the clinical relevance. Thus, the measurement of AGEs as well as possible treatment effects on AGEs have become issues of interest. The aim of this report is to summarize results of measurements of AGEs. It consists of a systematic review of the existing literature on AGE measurements in clinical research, an evaluation of the precision of skin autofluorescence (SAF) measurement by AGE Reader® (Diagnoptics), and a short commentary on treatment of osteoporosis in patients with and without diabetes with respects to AGEs. We conclude that various AGE measures correlate well, both fluorescent and non-fluorescent and in different tissues, and that more than one target of measure may be used. However, pentosidine has shown good correlation with both bone measures and fracture risk in existing literature and results on SAF as a surrogate measurement is promising as some corresponding associations with fracture risk and bone measures are reported. As SAF measurements performed with the AGE Reader® display high precision and allow for a totally noninvasive procedure, conducting AGE measurements using this method has great potential and further research of its applicability is encouraged.

Abstract
A major precursor of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) - methylglyoxal (MG) - is a reactive carbonyl metabolite that originates from glycolytic pathways. MG formation and accumulation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetes and age-related chronic musculoskeletal disorders. Human bone marrow-derived stromal cells (BMSCs) are multipotent cells that have the potential to differentiate into cells of mesenchymal origin including osteoblasts, but the role of MG on their differentiation is unclear. We therefore evaluated the effect of MG on proliferation and differentiation of BMSC-derived osteoblasts. Cells were treated with different concentrations of MG (600, 800 and 1000 μM). Cell viability was assessed using a Cell Counting Kit-8 assay. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium deposition assays were performed to evaluate osteoblast differentiation and mineralization. Gene expression was measured using qRT-PCR, whereas AGE specific receptor (RAGE) and collagen 1 were examined by immunocytochemistry and Western blotting. RAGE knockdown was performed by transducing RAGE specific short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) using lentivirus. During osteogenic differentiation, MG treatment resulted in reduction of cell viability (27.7 %), ALP activity (45.5 %) and mineralization (82.3 %) compared to untreated cells. MG significantly decreased expression of genes involved in osteogenic differentiation - RUNX2 (2.8 fold), ALPL (3.2 fold), MG detoxification through glyoxalase - GLO1 (3 fold) and collagen metabolism - COL1A1 (4.9 fold), COL1A2 (6.8 fold), LOX (5.4 fold) and PLOD1 (1.7 fold). MG significantly reduced expression of collagen 1 (53.3 %) and RAGE (43.1 %) at protein levels. Co-treatment with a MG scavenger - aminoguanidine - prevented all negative effects of MG. RAGE-specific knockdown during MG treatment did not reverse the effects on cell viability, osteogenic differentiation or collagen metabolism. In conclusion, MG treatment can negatively influence the collagen metabolism and differentiation of BMSCs-derived osteoblasts through a RAGE independent mechanism.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a periodontal inflammatory condition that results from disrupted periodontal host-microbe homeostasis, manifested by the destruction of tooth-supporting structures, especially inflammatory alveolar bone loss. Osteoporosis is characterized by systemic deterioration of bone mass and microarchitecture. The roles of many systemic factors have been identified in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, including endocrine change, metabolic disorders, health-impaired behaviors and mental stress. The prevalence rate of osteoporotic fracture is in sustained elevation in the past decades. Recent studies suggest that individuals with concomitant osteoporosis are more vulnerable to periodontal impairment. Current reviews of worse periodontal status in the context of osteoporosis are limited, mainly centering on the impacts of menopausal and diabetic osteoporosis on periodontitis. Herein, this review article makes an effort to provide a comprehensive view of the relationship between osteoporosis and periodontitis, with a focus on clarifying how those risk factors in osteoporotic populations modify the alveolar bone homeostasis in the periodontitis niche.

Front Nutr 2022; 9:986192. [PMID: 36337646 PMCID: PMC9633996 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.986192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background This study aimed to explore whether S-Equol delays diabetes-induced osteoporosis and the molecular mechanisms underlying its therapeutic effects. Materials and methods Thirty-five male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomized into five groups. The diabetic osteoporosis (DOP) group and three S-Equol treatment groups were intraperitoneally injected with streptozotocin (STZ) to develop a DOP model. After the 12-week intervention, bone transformation indicators were detected using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit; bone mineral density (BMD) and bone microstructure were obtained using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and microCT; morphological changes in the bone tissue were investigated using HE staining; bone morphogenetic proteins were detected using immunohistochemical staining. ROS17/2.8 cells were cultured in vitro, and Cell Counting Kit-8 was used to test the protective effects of S-Equol in osteoblastic cells in a high-fat and high-glucose environment. Furthermore, the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG), receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL), estrogen receptor β(ERβ), phosphorylated Akt (pAKT)/protein kinase B (AKT), and osteocalcin (OC) in bone tissue and ROS17/2.8 cells was assessed using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western blotting. To determine whether ERβ and phosphatidylinositol 3’ -kinase (PI3K)/AKT signaling pathways are involved in the process, LY294002 (PI3K signaling pathway inhibitor) and small interfering RNA targeting ERβ mRNA (si-ERβ) were used to verify the function of the ERβ-mediated PI3K/AKT pathway in this process. Results After the 12-week intervention, S-Equol enhanced BMD, improved bone microarchitecture in DOP rats (P < 0.05), and improved markers of bone metabolism (P < 0.05). In vitro, 10–6 mmol/L S-Equol was selected to significantly protect osteoblasts from high- and high-glucose environments (P < 0.05). Gene expression of OPG, ERβ, pAKT/AKT, and OC was upregulated compared to the DOP group, and RANKL was downregulated compared to the DOP group (P < 0.05) both in bone tissue and osteoblastic cells. The promotion of OPG and pAKT/AKT is mediated by LY294002 and siERβ. Conclusion S-Equol binds to ERβ to regulate OPG/RANKL via the PI3K/AKT pathway and improve DOP. Our results demonstrate the potential role of S-Equol in the treatment of DOP by targeting ERβ. Thus, S-Equol may have the potential to be an adjuvant drug for treating DOP.

Jolic M, Sharma S, Palmquist A, Shah FA. The impact of medication on osseointegration and implant anchorage in bone determined using removal torque-A review. Heliyon 2022; 8:e10844. [PMID: 36276721 PMCID: PMC9582727 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2022.e10844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Permanently anchored metal implants are frequently used in dental, craniomaxillofacial, and orthopaedic rehabilitation. The success of such therapies is owed to the phenomenon of osseointegration—the direct connection between the living bone and the implant. The extent of biomechanical anchorage (i.e., physical interlocking between the implant and bone) can be assessed with removal torque (RTQ) measurement. Implant anchorage is strongly influenced by underlying bone quality, involving physicochemical and biological properties such as composition and structural organisation of extracellular matrix, extent of micro-damage, and bone turnover. In this review, we evaluated the impact of various pharmacological agents on osseointegration, from animal experiments conducting RTQ measurements. In addition to substances whose antiresorptive and/or anti-catabolic effects on bone are well-documented (e.g., alendronate, zoledronate, ibandronate, raloxifene, human parathyroid hormone, odanacatib, and the sclerostin monoclonal antibody), positive effects on RTQ have been reported for substances that do not primarily target bone (e.g., aminoguanidine, insulin, losartan, simvastatin, bone morphogenetic protein, alpha-tocopherol, and the combination of silk fibroin powder and platelet-rich fibrin). On the contrary, several substances (e.g., prednisolone, cyclosporin A, cisplatin, and enamel matrix derivative) tend to adversely impact RTQ. While morphometric parameters such as bone-implant contact appear to influence the biomechanical anchorage, increased or decreased RTQ is not always accompanied by corresponding fluctuations in bone-implant contact. This further confirms that factors such as bone quality underpin biomechanical anchorage of metal implants. Several fundamental questions on drug metabolism and bioavailability, drug dosage, animal-to-human translation, and the consequences of treatment interruption remain yet unanswered. Effects of pharmacological agents on osseointegration of metal implants are reviewed. Removal torque is considered as an objective measure of osseointegration. Most investigated anabolic agents are alendronate, zoledronate, and ibandronate. hPTH has a positive effect while cyclosporin A and cisplatin have negative effects. Correction of underlying systemic disorders leads to improved osseointegration.

Abstract
AbstractAdvanced glycation end products (AGEs), the compounds resulting from the
non-enzymatic glycosylation between reducing sugars and proteins, are derived
from food or produced de novo. Over time, more and more endogenous and
exogenous AGEs accumulate in various organs such as the liver, kidneys, muscle,
and bone, threatening human health. Among these organs, bone is most widely
reported. AGEs accumulating in bone reduce bone strength by participating in
bone structure formation and breaking bone homeostasis by binding their
receptors to alter the proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of cells
involved in bone remodeling. In this review, we summarize the research about the
effects of AGEs on bone health and highlight their associations with bone health
in diabetes patients to provide some clues toward the discovery of new treatment
and prevention strategies for bone-related diseases caused by AGEs.

Lens Autofluorescence Based Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) Measurement to Assess Risk of Osteopenia Among Individuals Under the Age of 50. MEDICAL DEVICES-EVIDENCE AND RESEARCH 2022; 15:341-347. [PMID: 36105561 PMCID: PMC9467441 DOI: 10.2147/mder.s381115] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Simple non-invasive biomarker is urgently needed to detect the largely silent osteopenia in order to prevent osteoporosis-related fracture later in life. The accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) has been related to reduced bone density and osteoporotic fractures. Whether lens autofluorescence (LAF) based AGEs (LAF-AGEs) measurement could be used to assess the risk of osteopenia is aimed to investigate in this paper. METHODS Through routine health examination, 368 individuals under the age of 50 were enrolled. A dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) device was used to measure bone mineral density (BMD) of the forearm and determine osteopenia. AGE levels were derived with LAF along with the other demographic and laboratory parameters. After deriving the age-adjusted AGE levels (AALs), a linear regression analysis and an ordered logistic regression analysis were applied to examine the associations between osteopenia and LAF-AGEs as well as AALs. RESULTS Negative correlations (Pearson r = -0.16, p < 0.001) were found between LAF-AGEs and T-scores. Higher AALs were significantly associated (p = 0.004) with escalated level of osteopenia in the ordered logistic analysis. DISCUSSION After reviewing the relevant studies, it is concluded that LAF-AGE is a more stable measure of long-term metabolic dysfunction than circulating AGE. LAF-AGEs are a valid, practical and non-invasive parameter for osteopenia risk evaluation. Further studies with longer follow-up will be helpful to clarify its effectiveness for osteoporosis risk assessment.

Abstract
Background: Exercise has been widely reported to promote bone health, but it is unknown whether is associated with a reduction in advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs). This study aimed to investigate the effects of 14 weeks of cheerleading exercise on areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and AGEs. Methods: In this study, 46 female teenagers (age, 19.52 ± 1.21 years; body mass index, 20.15 ± 2.47 kg/m2) were randomly divided into a cheerleading group (CHE, n = 21) and a control group (CON, n = 25). The CHE group was subjected to cheerleading practice twice a week for 14 weeks; the CON group maintained their daily routine. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure aBMD, and autofluorescence (AF) values were used to reflect AGEs. Physical fitness testing all-in-one machines are used to test body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle fitness and flexibility. A mixed ANOVA model was used to examine the effect of the intervention on each outcome. A multiple mediation model with covariates for physical activity and eating behaviors was performed to explore the mediators between cheerleading exercise and aBMD. Results: After 14 weeks of cheerleading practice, 1) aBMD increased significantly in both groups with significantly higher increases in the CHE group (p < 0.05). 2) AGEs significantly decreased in the CHE group (−2.7%), but not in the CON group (p > 0.05). 3) Vertical jumps and sit-ups significantly increased in the CHE group (p < 0.05), but not in the CON group (p > 0.05). 4) ΔAF values was significantly negatively correlated with Δ aBMD (r = −0.302, p < 0.05). 5) ΔAF values mediated the effect of exercise on the aBMD (indirect effect: 0.0032, 95% CI 0.0002–0.0079). Conclusion: Cheerleading practice improved aBMD and physical fitness and reduced AGEs accumulation in female adolescents. The effect of exercise on aBMD was partially mediated by AGEs.

Abstract
Obesity and type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are prominent risk factors for secondary osteoporosis due to the negative impacts of hyperglycemia and excessive body fat on bone metabolism. While the armamentarium of anti-diabetic drugs is expanding, their negative or unknown impacts on bone metabolism limits effectiveness. The inactivation of inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 (IP6K1) protects mice from high-fat-diet (HFD)-induced obesity (DIO) and insulin resistance by enhancing thermogenic energy expenditure, but the role of this kinase and the consequences of its inhibition on bone metabolism are unknown. To determine if IP6K1 inhibition in obese mice affords protection against obesity-induced metabolic derangements and bone loss, we maintained 2-month-old mice on a normal chow control diet or HFD under thermal neutral conditions for 100 d. Beginning on day 40, HFD-fed mice were divided into two groups and administered daily injections of vehicle or the pan-IP6K inhibitor TNP [N2-(m-Trifluorobenzyl), N6-(p-nitrobenzyl) purine]. HFD-fed mice developed obesity, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and secondary osteoporosis, while TNP administration protected mice against HFD-induced metabolic and lipid derangements and preserved bone mass, mineral density, and trabecular microarchitecture, which correlated with reduced serum leptin levels, reduced marrow adiposity, and preservation of marrow resident skeletal stem/progenitor cells (SSPCs). TNP also exhibited hypotensive activity, an unrealized benefit of the drug, and its prolonged administration had no adverse impacts on spermatogenesis. Together, these data indicate that the inhibition of IP6K1 using selective inhibitors, such as TNP, may provide an effective strategy to manage obesity and T2DM due to its bone sparing effects.

Abstract
Background: Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been shown to accumulate in bone and are gaining interest in connective tissue research. Aims: To investigate the intrarater reliability, two-timepoint agreement and correlations within and between two commercially available skin autofluorescence (SAF) AGE devices. Methods: Healthy volunteers were enrolled in a prospective study at a single academic institution. Each participant underwent SAF analysis by two different, commercially available devices on two occasions, 14 days apart. Upon enrollment, a general survey about the participant’s lifestyle and health status was completed and followed up on for any changes at timepoint two. Results: In total, 40 participants (F:M ratio 5:3) with an average age of 39.0 ± 12.5 years were analyzed. For the AGE reader (skin) and AGE sensor (fingertip), both intrarater reliability and two-timepoint agreement were excellent with an interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) > 0.90 and a strong correlation within both machines. However, there was no correlation between both machines for either timepoint. In total, 4 participants were identified as outliers above the +2SD. Additionally, 5 participants with dark-colored skin could not be measured with the AGE reader at timepoint one and 4 at timepoint two. In contrast, all participants were able to undergo SAF analysis with the AGE sensor, irrespective of their skin type. Conclusions: Both machines showed excellent intrarater reliability and two-timepoint agreement, but the skin AGE reader might have limited applicability in individuals with dark-colored skin. Future research on AGEs might take our findings into consideration.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Multiple biochemical and biophysical approaches have been broadly used for detection and quantitation of posttranslational protein modifications associated with diabetic bone, yet these techniques present a variety of challenges. In this review, we discuss recent advancements and complementary roles of analytical (UPLC/UPLC-MS/MS and ELISA) and biophysical (Raman and FTIR) techniques used for characterization of glycation products, measured from bone matrix and serum, and provide recommendations regarding the selection of a technique for specific study of diabetic bone. RECENT FINDINGS Hyperglycemia and oxidative stress in diabetes contribute to the formation of a large subgroup of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) known as glycoxidation end products (AGOEs). AGEs/AGOEs have various adverse effects on bone health. Commonly, accumulation of AGEs/AGOEs leads to increased bone fragility. For example, recent studies show that carboxymethyllysine (CML) and pentosidine (PEN) are formed in bone at higher levels in certain diseases and metabolic conditions, in particular, in diabetes and aging. Detection and quantitation of AGEs/AGOEs in rare and/or precious samples is feasible because of a number of technological advancements of the past decade. SUMMARY Recent technological advancements have led to a significant improvement of several key analytical biochemistry and biophysics techniques used for detection and characterization of AGEs/AGOEs in bone and serum. Their principles and applications to skeletal tissue studies as well as limitations are discussed in this review.

Abstract
Although the risk of bone fracture is increased in type 2 diabetes (T2DM), bone mineral density (BMD) is increased rather than decreased. Accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) adversely influences the fracture resistance of bone in T2DM. We hypothesized that SAF is also associated with BMD levels in type 2 diabetic patients and aimed to evaluate the association of SAF with BMD and the presence of osteoporosis. This cross-sectional case-control study included 237 patients with T2DM (F/M: 133/104, 56.2±11.9 yrs) and 100 age- and sex-matched controls (F/M: 70/30, 54.8±8.8 yrs). Skin autofluorescence, a validated non-invasive measure of tissue AGEs, is used to detect the accumulation of AGEs in skin collagen using AGE Reader (DiagnOptics B.V., Groningen, The Netherlands). In addition, BMD was measured with DEXA (Lunar DPX-L). Patients with T2DM had higher SAF values compared to control group (2.21±0.53 AU vs. 1.79±0.33 AU, p < 0.001). Male subjects had higher SAF compared to women (2.34±0.53 AU vs. 2.11±0.50 AU, p < 0.001). Subjects with below -2.5 femoral neck or lumbar T scores had higher SAF measurements compared to subjects with normal T scores (2.46±0.53 AU vs. 2.18±0.52 AU, p = 0.006). Femoral neck BMD was lower in subjects with T2DM (0.946±0.345 g/cm2 vs. 1.005±0.298 g/cm2, p = 0.002). There was a negative correlation between SAF and femoral neck BMD (r=-0.24, p < 0.001), femoral neck T scores (r=-0.24, p < 0.001), L1-4 BMD (r=-0.10, p = 0.005), L1-4 T score (r=-0.16, p=0.001) and a positive correlation between SAF and age (r=0.44, p < 0.001), body mass index (r:0.16, p = 0.002) and HbA1c (r=0.37, p < 0.001). Accumulation of skin AGEs was increased, and BMD levels were decreased in diabetic patients. A negative association between SAF and BMD was detected, indicating a relationship between higher AGE accumulation and low BMD and osteoporosis in diabetic patients. Long-term prospective studies are needed to identify the practical use of SAF measurement in diabetic bone disease.

Abstract
Diabetes is one of the risk factors for meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD); however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unknown. The current study aims to examine the effects of glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 (Gli1), a transcription factor of the sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway, in the modulation of diabetic-related MGD. Here, using RNA sequencing and qRT-PCR, we examined the mRNA changes of Shh pathway involving genes. mRNA sequencing analysis showed that the Shh pathway involving genes Shh and Gli1 were markedly upregulated in diabetic MG, and qRT-PCR detection of Shh pathway-associated genes found that Gli1 expression increased most significantly. Contrary to the elevation of Gli1 level, the expression of pparγ was downregulated in diabetic MG and in high glucose treated organotypic cultured mouse MG. GANT61, an inhibitor of Gli1, effectively inhibited the reduction of pparγ expression and lipid accumulation induced by high glucose, which was suppressed by pparγ inhibitor T0070907. We further demonstrated that advanced glycation end products (AGEs) treatment also promoted the expression of Gli1 and pparγ in organotypic cultured mouse MG. AGEs inhibitor Aminoguanidine suppressed high glucose caused Gli1 upregulation in organotypic cultured mouse MG. These results suggest that suppression of Gli1 may be a potentially useful therapeutic option for diabetic-related MGD.

Creecy A, Smith C, Wallace JM. Dietary supplements do not improve bone morphology or mechanical properties in young female C57BL/6 mice. Sci Rep 2022; 12:9804.

Abstract
Bone is a hierarchical material formed by an organic extracellular matrix and mineral where each component and their physical relationship with each other contribute to fracture resistance. Bone quality can be affected by nutrition, and dietary supplements that are marketed to improve overall health may improve the fracture resistance of bone. To test this, 11 week old female C57BL/6 mice were fed either collagen, chondroitin sulfate, glucosamine sulfate, or fish oil 5 times a week for 8 weeks. Femurs, tibiae, and vertebrae were scanned with micro-computed tomography and then mechanically tested. Glucosamine and fish oil lowered elastic modulus, but did not alter the overall strength of the femur. There were no differences in bone mechanics of the tibiae or vertebrae. Overall, the data suggest that dietary supplements did little to improve bone quality in young, healthy mice. These supplements may be more effective in diseased or aged mice.

Bone mass and microarchitecture in T2DM patients and corticosteroids therapy: the Bushehr Elderly Health program. J Diabetes Metab Disord 2022; 21:717-725. [PMID: 35673425 PMCID: PMC9167314 DOI: 10.1007/s40200-022-01040-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/06/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Our study examined whether T2DM and glucocorticoids treatment affect bone quality and quantity that are measured by Bone Mineral Density (BMD) and Trabecular Bone Score (TBS). Materials & methods Participants in this study were 2294 women and men aged over 60 years who participated in stage II of the Bushehr Elderly Health (BEH) program. Patients with T2DM and those who received glucocorticoids were included. BMD was detected using the DXA method and the TBS of L1-L4 was evaluated by TBS iNsight® software. To evaluate the correlation between TBS and BMD levels with diabetes and taking corticosteroids sex-specific multivariable linear regression models were appplied. Results TBS and BMD were not significantly different in those who had received glucocorticoids versus those who did not.T2DM revealed a significant association with both BMD and TBS in men (beta = 0.12, p < 0.001 and beta = 0.063, p = 0.03, respectively). BMD values were significantly higher in diabetic women (beta = 0.073, p < 0.01). BMI had a significant association with both TBS and BMD but in an opposite direction, in women and men (BMD: beta = -0.22, -0.24, and regarding TBS: beta = 0.37, 0.25, all p-values < 0.001). Conclusion Our findings showed that T2DM had major effects on BMD in both men and women. However, T2DM only affects TBS in men. Furthermore, neither BMD nor TBS were affected by GC intake in men or women.Based on the variable importance of covariates, BMI was the most influential factor on both BMD and TBS, although in opposite directions, in both sexes.

Biochemical Markers of Aging (Advanced Glycation End Products) and Degeneration Are Increased in Type 3 Rotator Cuff Tendon Stumps With Increased Signal Intensity Changes on MRI. Am J Sports Med 2022; 50:1960-1970.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are end products of protein glycation that bind to the receptor for AGEs (RAGE) and activate nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX), resulting in increased oxidative stress and rotator cuff fragility. Stump classification using the signal intensity ratio of the tendon rupture site to the deltoid muscle in the coronal view of T2-weighted fat-suppressed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans is an indicator of clinical outcomes after rotator cuff repair surgery. Comparing the signal intensities of the deltoid (D) and rotator cuff tears (C), Ishitani et al. classified C/D <0.8 as type 1, 0.8 to 1.3 as type 2, and >1.3 as type 3. HYPOTHESIS/PURPOSE It was hypothesized that the oxidative stress and collagen degeneration that occur in the rotator cuff due to accumulation of AGEs can be assessed on MRI scans (stump classification). Therefore, this study aimed to compare AGE-related factors in the rotator cuff tear site tissues based on stump classification. STUDY DESIGN Descriptive laboratory study. METHODS The authors included 30 patients (11 with type 1, 9 with type 2, and 10 with type 3; mean age, 62.3 years) who underwent surgery for complete rotator cuff tears at our hospital. Tendon tissue was harvested from the torn rotator cuff site during surgery for tissue and cell evaluation. RESULTS There was no significant difference in the mean age according to stump classification. The number of patients with diabetes was significantly larger in type 3 than in the other types (P < .05). Tissue evaluation showed significantly higher expression of AGE and RAGE staining in type 3 than in the other types (~6.7-fold; P < .01). Cell evaluation showed that the expression rates of reactive oxygen species and apoptosis were significantly higher in type 3 than in the other types (~4.3-fold; P < .01). Gene expression by real-time polymerase chain reaction showed significantly higher RAGE (~5.1-fold), NOX (~5.3-fold), and IL (~3.0-fold) in type 3 than in the other types (P < .05). CONCLUSION Stump classification type 3 exhibited the highest accumulation of AGEs and the highest oxidative stress and apoptosis, suggesting a high degree of degeneration and inflammation. Imaging based on stump classification reflects the degeneration and fragility of the torn rotator cuff site. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study provides evidence of a relationship between stump classification, which reflects rotator cuff fragility on MRI, and pathologies related to advanced glycation end products.

Abstract
Numerous clinical studies have indicated that elevated FGF23 (fibroblast growth factor 23) levels may be associated with cardiovascular (CV) mortality, especially in patients with chronic kidney disease. The purpose of this study was to examine the hypothesis that FGF23 may be a potent CV risk factor among patients with long-standing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Research was performed utilizing patients with T2DM and regular outpatient follow-up care. Baseline characteristics determined by laboratory tests were recorded. Serum FGF23 levels were detected using a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. All patients underwent echocardiograms and 12-lead electrocardiograms. Data records of 102 patients (males: 57%) with a median age of 69 years (interquartile range (IQR) 66.0–74.0) were analyzed. Baseline characteristics indicated that one-third (33%) of patients suffered from ischemic heart disease (IHD), and the median time elapsed since diagnosis with T2DM was 19 years (IQR 14.0–25.0). The hemoglobin A1c, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and FGF23 values were, respectively, as follows: 6.85% (IQR 6.5–7.7), 80 mL/min/1.73 m2 (IQR 70.0–94.0), and 253.0 pg/mL (IQR 218.0–531.0). The study revealed that FGF23 was elevated in all patients, regardless of IHD status. Thus, the role of FGF23 as a CV risk factor should not be overestimated among patients with T2DM and good glycemic control.
