Previous studies have demonstrated that male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats experience age-related bone loss with the same characteristics as that in ageing men. As articular cartilage, like bone, is a critical component of the health and function of the m

It has been hypothesized that increase in muscle mass increases the strain on bone resulting in increase in bone mass. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of increased muscle mass on bone. A colony of transgenic mice that overex

Osteoporosis is a common occurrence in aging men. There is currently no appropriate animal model for studying age-related bone loss in men. To determine whether male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats experience bone loss with aging and whether this rodent mod

The severely osteoporotic human skeleton is characterized by thin cortices and a very fragile cancellous framework. To increase the biomechanical competence of such a skeleton, powerful anabolic agents are needed. The aim of the present study was to

Peak volumetric bone mineral density (BMD) is determined by the growth in bone size relative to the mineral accrued within its periosteal envelope. Thus, reduced peak volumetric BMD may be the result of reduced mineral accrual relative to growth in b
