The subjects were 200 premenopausal females (38.8±10.3years) and 156 postmenopausal females (59.2±5.9 ye- ars). BMD (Body mineral density) was estimated by right-calcaneal OSI using an ultrasonic transmission method with an AOS-100 device (ALOKA). The number of postmenopau- sal fe-males in the close examination and guidance required groups (80 cases: 51.3 %) (OSI < 2.428) was significantly higher than that of premeno-pausal females (44 cases: 22.0 %) (χ2=33.105: P<0.000). In premenopausal females, the proportion of subjects that had not taken vitamin D in the past (in junior high school and high school) was significantly higher in the close examination- guidance required group (OSI < 2.428) than in the normal group (OSI ≧ 2.428). However, in postmenopausal females, there was no signifi-cant difference in past and present lifestyle habits and nutrition between the close exami-nation-guidance required group and the normal group. In premenopausal females, it was deter-mined that the intake of vitamin D during pu-berty increased the absorption of calcium sig-nificantly.展开更多

ALP enzymatic assay, RT-qPCR, DAPI staining and SEM were employed to assess the osteoinductivity of these materials. A good reference material which also acts as a scientific control is necessary for comparisons of results from different experimental batches and hence other materials such as titanium, Nunclon plastic surface, BD Falcon plastic surface and gold coated porous HA were also tested. The results show that ceramics induce a more sustained osteo-differentiation state as compared with plastics. Inductivity was found to be acting in descending order of strength with HA > β-TCP > α-TCP, which is reversed in terms of their impact on proliferation rate (HA TCP) and in vivo osteoinductivity in terms of incidence and quality of bone described previously (HA > β-TCP > α-TCP). These confirm the suitability of using 10T1/2 cells in cell culture assay of osteoinductivity.展开更多

However, the lack of osteoinductivity may still restrict their further use. This study aimed to investigate the biocompatibility and osteogenesis capacity of a novel Semaphorin 3A-loaded chitosan microspheres/SF/a-tricalcium phosphate composite （Sema3A CMs/SF/a-TCP） in vitro. Sema3A was first incorporated into CMs, and the Sema3A CMs/SF/a-TCP composite was then prepared. The morphology of the CMs was observed using SEM. The in vitro release kinetics, cytotoxicity, and cell compatibility were evaluated, and the real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （RT-qPCR） and activity of alkaline phosphatase （ALP） were used to evaluate the osteogenesis capacity of the composite. The in vitro release of Sema3A from the Sema3A CMs/SF/a-TCP composite showed a temporally controlled manner. The extract of the Sema3A CMs/SF/a-TCP composite presented no obvious side effect on the MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation, nor promote cell proliferation. The MC3T3-E1 cells were well-spread and presented an elongated shape on the Sema3A CMs/SF/a-TCP composite surface; the ALP activity and the osteogenic-related gene expression were higher than those seeded on the surface of the CMs/SF/a-TCP and SF/a-TCP composites. In conclusion, Sema3A CMslSF/a-TCP has excellent biocompatibility and contributes to the osteoblastic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells.展开更多
