Analysis of the Degree of Information of Dental Surgeons about Antiresorptive Drugs According to the Time Since Graduation in Dentistry

ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the level of scientific information of dental surgeons who carry out their professional activities in Brazil about antiresorptive drugs and indicated pharmacological procedures aiming at the prevention of osteonecrosis of the jaws and the therapy of drug sequelae that ma...

De la osteología a la osteomiología: tres décadas de aportes originales continuos al análisis biomecánico osteomuscular
From osteology to osteo-myology: three decades of continuous, original contributions to musculoskeletal biomechanical analysis

Actual. osteol; 14 (2), 2018
En consonancia con la orientación tradicional de nuestras investigaciones, la Osteología está incorporando progresivamente el análisis estructural-biomecánico óseo y las interacciones músculo-esqueléticas. En este artículo se sintetizan los aportes originales del CEMFoC a la Osteología moderna ...

Statins and bonehealth: a mini review

Actual. osteol; 14 (1), 2018
Statins are a widely prescribed class of medications that inhibit similar pathways as the anti-resorptive bisphosphonate drugs. Statins target the mevalonate pathway by blocking HMG-CoA reductase. Several recent meta-analyses concluded statins are osteoprotective in the general population. Here we presen...

Hepatic Osteodystrophy: The Mechanism of Bone Loss in Hepatocellular Disease and the Effects of Pamidronate Treatment

Clinics; 72 (4), 2017
OBJECTIVES: The present study was designed to evaluate the bone phenotypes and mechanisms involved in bone disorders associated with hepatic osteodystrophy. Hepatocellular disease was induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). In addition, the effects of disodium pamidronate on bone tissue were evaluated. ...

Collagen sponge and rhBMP-2 improve socket healing in rats treated with zoledronic acid

Abstract The aim of the present study was to evaluate the possible use of a commercial absorbed collagen sponge and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) for the prevention of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) in rats. Twenty rats received intraperitoneal injections of 0.1-mg/kg of zoled...

Estudio radiográfico de la asociación de antioxidantes y bifosfonatos en remodelación ósea peri-Implantaria

Estudios previos han demostrado que los bisfosfonatos son potentes inhibidores de la resorción ósea. El aceite de oliva (O) es rico en ácidos grasos monoinsaturados con potentes propiedades anti-oxidantes. El objetivo de este estudio fue estudiar el efecto del tratamiento de alendronato (AL) y pamidro...

Using agents that suppress bone remodeling to treat or prevent joint disease: quo vadis?

Actual. osteol; 12 (3), 2016
Treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) with antiremodeling agents has had a mixed record of results. It is likely that remodeling suppression is only effective when used in the early phases of OA, before significant progression. Animal and human studies largely bear this out. Treatment of young mice with a RAN...

Response of a co-culture model of epithelial cells and gingival fibroblasts to zoledronic acid

Braz. oral res. (Online); 30 (1), 2016
Abstract Osteonecrosis of the jaw is an adverse effect of bisphosphonates. While the etiopathogenesis of this condition has been investigated, the interactions and effects of bisphosphonates on oral mucosa cells remain unclear. It is hypothesized that cell culture models, such as co-culture or three-dime...

β-ARRESTIN/CONNEXIN 43 (Cx43) complex anchors ERKS outside the nucleus: a prerequisite for bisphosphonate antiapoptotic effect mediated by Cx43/ERK in osteocytes

Actual. osteol; 12 (1), 2016
Bisphosphonates (BPs) anti-fracture efficacy may be due in part to inhibition of osteocyte apoptosis. This effect requires opening of connexin (Cx) 43 hemichannels and phosphorylation of the extracellular signal regulated kinases (ERKs). However, unlike ERK activation by other stimuli, the Cx43/ERK pathw...
