Rapamycin impairs trabecular bone acquisition from high-dose but not low-dose intermittent parathyroid hormone treatment.

29 Nov 2009 The osteo-anabolic effects of intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH) treatment require insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling through the IGF-I receptor. A major downstream target of the IGF-I receptor (via Akt) is the mammalian target of ... Read more...

Early fracture callus displays smooth muscle-like viscoelastic properties ex vivo: implications for fracture healing.

30 Oct 2009 Cells of early, fibrous callus in bone fractures possess much alpha smooth muscle actin. This callus contracts and relaxes; however, active and passive components of its force production have yet to be defined. We aimed to establish whether passive ... Read more...

Effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound on bone formation during mandible distraction osteogenesis in a canine model--a preliminary study.

30 Oct 2009 PURPOSE: To make a preliminary study of the effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound on new bone formation during mandible distraction osteogenesis in dogs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Bilateral surgical cuts were made in mandibles of 7 dogs between the ... Read more...
