Summary: This study utilized mendelian randomization to investigate the effects of blood lipids on bone mineral density (BMD) at various skeletal sites and examined the mediating role of human traits in this process. The results showed a negative causal relationship between lipid metabolism and bone metabolism. It was found that systolic blood pressure (SBP) and hand grip strength (HGS) served as mediators for the effects of lipid metabolism on bone metabolism.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of equol and resveratrol on bone turnover biomarkers in postmenopausal women. The results showed that the combination of equol and resveratrol significantly improved bone turnover biomarkers and increased bone mineral density, suggesting a potential approach to prevent age-related bone loss in postmenopausal women.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS) in postmenopausal DTC patients receiving TSH suppression therapy. Results showed that TBS may better reflect bone health than BMD in this patient population.

Summary: Sea cucumber enzymatic hydrolysates (SCEH) can inhibit osteoclast generation via the NF-kappa B pathway, reduce inflammation related to osteoporosis, and improve bone metabolism, thereby increasing bone density and relieving osteoporosis.

Summary: The burden of obesity and osteoporosis is increasing and becoming a major public health concern. Recent evidence has identified novel adipokines that play a role in bone metabolism. Obesity, characterized by adipose tissue inflammation, negatively impacts bone health. Adipokines secreted from white adipose tissue and bone marrow adipose tissue have effects on osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Understanding the complex interplay between fat cells and bone is crucial in the context of osteoporosis. This review summarizes recent advances in the understanding of adipokines' role in bone metabolism.

Summary: There is increasing evidence supporting a pathophysiological link between NAFLD and osteoporosis, possibly due to chronic low-grade inflammation. Most epidemiological evidence indicates an association between NAFLD and lower bone mineral density or osteoporosis. Some medications have the potential to treat both NAFLD and osteoporosis, while others may increase fracture risk.

Summary: This article reviews the production and structural characteristics of irisin and discusses the effects of different types of exercise on irisin and its role in anti-aging. The article also reviews the role of irisin in the regulation of bone mineral density, bone metabolism, and chondrocyte homeostasis and metabolism. These studies provide new insights into the mechanisms of exercise training in improving bone density, resisting cartilage degeneration, and maintaining joint homeostasis. They contribute to the understanding of exercise in the fight against osteoarthritis and provide important references for the prevention and treatment of osteoarthritis.

Summary: The study examined 81 healthy prepubertal children and found significant differences in body composition and bone mineral density across varying BMI statuses. The levels of myostatin and 25-hydroxyvitamin D may influence bone health in thin children.

Summary: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a common genetic disorder characterized by various musculoskeletal deformities, with scoliosis being the most common. NF1 patients exhibit defects in bone metabolism, including reduced bone mineral density and osteoporosis, as well as abnormal levels of bone metabolic markers in the blood. At the molecular level, loss of neurofibromin function affects osteoclastic and osteoblastic activities, leading to altered bone turnover and collagen production.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of milk proteins and whey proteins on bone health. The results showed that consuming milk protein-enriched ice cream led to an increase in bone mineral density and a reduction in alkaline phosphatase levels in postmenopausal women. In osteoblast cells, whey protein activated the ERK1/2 pathways, promoting cell proliferation and osteoblast differentiation markers.

Summary: In postmenopausal women who underwent thyroidectomy, stringent TSH suppression had detrimental effects on the BMD of the lumbar spine. Further research is needed to determine if this suppression increases the risk of fractures.

Summary: Rett syndrome is a monogenic neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the MECP2 gene. Patients exhibit a broad spectrum of symptoms, with orthopedic complications being a common non-neurological manifestation, including scoliosis and osteopenia/osteoporosis. Further research is needed to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying these bone problems and develop new therapeutic approaches.

Summary: In older postmenopausal women, higher FSH levels are associated with higher BMA, lower BMD, and lower fat and lean mass, independent of estradiol and testosterone levels. No significant association was found between FSH levels and any outcome in men. Longitudinal studies are needed to further understand the underlying mechanisms.

Summary: The study by McDonald et al. discovered that giant multinucleated, bone-resorbing osteoclasts can dissolve into smaller cells, termed osteopmorhs,'' which re-form into osteoclasts at distal bone sites. These findings overturn the long-standing premise that osteoclasts differentiate solely from hematopoietic precursors and undergo apoptosis after completing resorption.
