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 (H2 O2 ) and gluconic acid，and then converts H2 O2 to hydroxyl radicals (•OH) by peroxidase-like activity to destroy bacteria...

Runt-related transcription factor (RUNX1) is a transcription factor closely involved in hematopoiesis. RUNX 1 gene mutation plays an essential pathogenic role in the initiation and development of hematological tumors, especially in acute myeloid leukemia. Recent studies have shown that RUNX1 is also involved in the regulation of bone development and the pathological progression of bone-related diseases. RUNX1 promotes the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into chondrocytes and osteoblasts and modulates the maturation and extracellular matrix formation of chondrocytes...

AIM: Pituitary stalk interruption syndrome is a relatively rare disease. Patients with this disease usually have different degrees of short stature in adulthood. The purpose of this case report is to highlight a special case of unusually elongated limbs with excessive height growth and congenital absence of uterus and ovary, so as to improve clinicians understanding of the atypical manifestations of pituitary stalk interruption syndrome and provide reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of the disease...

While it is known that vitamin D deficiency is associated with adverse bone outcomes, it remains unclear whether low vitamin D status may increase the risk of a wider range of health outcomes. We had the opportunity to explore the association between common genetic variants associated with both 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) and the vitamin D binding protein (DBP, encoded by the GC gene) with a comprehensive range of health disorders and laboratory tests in a large academic medical center. We used summary statistics for 25OHD and DBP to generate polygenic scores (PGS) for 66,482 participants with primarily European ancestry and 13,285 participants with primarily African ancestry from the Vanderbilt University Medical Center Biobank (BioVU)...

SUMMARY: The resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome (RTHβ) occurs uncommonly and requires a high level of clinical suspicion and specific investigations to reach a precise diagnosis and to avoid unnecessary and potentially harmful therapies. We report a case of a young male patient referred to our unit for SARS-CoV-2 infection and atrial fibrillation with elevated thyroid hormones and non-suppressed thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), for which antithyroid therapy was prescribed...

Although calcium phosphate has been extensively utilized in orthopedic applications such as spine, limbs, dentistry, and maxillofacial surgery, the lack of osteoinductive properties often hinders its effectiveness in treating bone defects resulting from pathological micro-environment such as tumor surgery, osteoporosis, osteomyelitis, and diabetic. Therefore, a novel bone cement based on magnesium-doped bioactive glass was developed in this study. The moderate release of magnesium ions improved the mechanical properties by controlling the crystal size of hydroxyapatite...

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) increases fracture incidence and fracture-related mortality rates (KK.Cg-Ay/J. The Jackson Laboratory; Available from: https://www.jax.org/strain/002468 ). While numerous mouse models for T2D exist, few effectively stimulate persistent hyperglycemia in both sexes, and even fewer are suitable for bone studies. Commonly used models like db/db and ob/ob have altered leptin pathways, confounding bone-related findings since leptin regulates bone properties (Fajardo et al. in Journal of Bone and Mineral Research 29(5): 1025-1040, 2014)...

It aims to enhance our comprehension of this multifaceted association, offering insights into potential avenues for future research and therapeutic interventions. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent insights reveal that mutations in CHIP-associated genes are not limited to symptomatic patients but are also present in asymptomatic individuals...

Studies of patients with castrate-resistant prostate cancer at high risk of developing overt metastases but with no current evidence of evaluable disease on computed tomography or bone scan non-metastatic castrate-resistant prostrate cancer have demonstrated increased metastasis-free survival and overall survival following treatment with the next-generation oral anti-androgen apalutamide (in addition to therapies that aim to lower testosterone to castrate levels) or luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone antagonist or surgical castration...

BACKGROUND: Neutrophils rapidly accumulate in large numbers at sites of tissue damage, exhibiting not only their well-known bactericidal capabilities but also playing crucial roles in angiogenesis and tissue repair. While exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HucMSC-Exo) have emerged as a promising therapeutic tool, their exact mechanisms of action remain partly elusive. We hypothesize that HucMSC-Exo treatment may modulate neutrophil phenotypes, thereby significantly influencing wound healing outcomes...

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVES: To compare the frequency of complications and outcomes between patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) of the cervical spine and those with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) who underwent anterior surgery. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Anterior cervical spine surgery for OPLL is an effective surgical procedure; however, it is complex and technically demanding compared with the procedure for CSM...

PURPOSE: We investigated the incidence rates of a subsequent hip fracture (HF) and other subsequent fractures than HF after first incident HF, comparing patients with and without diabetes. METHODS: Using Danish medical databases, we identified 92,600 incident HF patients in the period 2004-2018. Diabetes exposure was examined overall, by type of diabetes (T2D and T1D), and by presence of diabetes complications. We estimated cumulative incidence of subsequent HFs and fractures other than HF within two years of the incident HF...

BACKGROUND: Observational evidence suggests that type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is associated with the risk of osteoporosis (OP). Nevertheless, it is not apparent whether these correlations indicate a causal relationship. To elucidate the causal relationship, a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed. METHODS: T1DM data was obtained from the large genome-wide association study (GWAS), in which 6683 cases and 12,173 controls from 12 European cohorts were involved...

Apoptosis releases numerous apoptotic vesicles that regulate processes such as cell proliferation, immunity, and tissue regeneration and repair. Now, it has also emerged as an attractive candidate for biotherapeutics. However, apoptotic vesicles encompass a diverse range of subtypes, and it remains unclear which specific subtypes play a pivotal role. In this study, we successfully isolated different apoptotic vesicle subtypes based on their sizes and characterized them using NTA and TEM techniques, respectively...

OBJECTIVES: Bone metabolism is impaired in diabetes mellitus (DM). Our objective is to evaluate the association of bone turnover markers (BTM) and vitamin D receptor ( VDR ) gene polymorphisms with bone mineral density (BMD) in DM type 1 (T1D) and DM type 2 (T2D). METHODS: A total of 165 patients (53 T1D and 112 T2D) were enrolled. BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Plasma osteocalcin (OC), beta-CrossLaps (β-CTX) and N-amino terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP) and VDR gene polymorphisms were evaluated...

OBJECTIVES: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus type 2 (DMT2) is increasing exponentially worldwide. DMT2 patients have been found to be at a higher risk for bone fractures than the healthy population. Hence, improving our understanding of the impact of antidiabetic drugs on bone metabolism is crucial. METHODS: A descriptive, retrospective study involving 106 patients receiving six groups of antidiabetic drugs: insulin; dipeptidylpeptidase four inhibitors (DPP4i); glucagon-like peptide type 1 receptor agonists (GLP1ra); sulfonylureas; sodium-glucose cotransporter two inhibitors (SGLT2i); and pioglitazone, in which osteocalcin (OC), bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) and C-terminal telopeptide of collagen type 1 or beta-crosslaps (β-CTx) were determined...
