2019, Materials Science and Engineering CCitation Excerpt :These improvements could be attributed to the higher degradation rate of SO42− doped HA and higher proliferation of Saos-2 cells in compared to pure HA. Zinc (Zn) is another important element and its presence around 205.3 ± 11.0 mg/g [24] and 113.9 ± 40.7 mg/g [25,26] in hard tissues. A great number of studies were performed to investigate the effect of Zn2+ ion incorporation into HA system [27–30].
From the crust to the cortical: The geochemistry of trace elements in human bone
2019, Geochimica et Cosmochimica ActaCitation Excerpt :In our study, the concentration of metabolically regulated elements (e.g., Zn, Sc, Ti, Fe, Sr, Cr, Cu, and Co) vary by less than one order of magnitude and display low coefficients of variation (CV < 30%), while Al, Ba, REEs, Pb, Cd, and Gd have concentrations that range two to three orders of magnitude and display coefficients of variations up to 364% (Fig. 2; Table 3). Comparisons of our data to other studies that have analyzed transition metal concentrations in bone (e.g., Yoshinaga et al., 1989; Helliwell et al., 1996; Zhang et al., 1996; Kuo et al., 2000; Wiechuła et al., 2008; Zaichick et al., 2011a, 2011b; Lanocha et al., 2013; Budis et al., 2014; Karaaslan et al., 2014; Santos et al., 2014; Brodziak-Dopierała et al., 2015; Roczniak et al., 2017a, 2017b) also reveal statistically indistinguishable concentrations for many of these elements within a range of approximately one order of magnitude. While it is not yet clear how the abundances of trace elements vary according to bone type (ribs, patella, and femoral heads), we suggest that the relatively narrow range and low degree of variance for Zn, Sc, Ti, Fe, Sr, Cr, Cu, and Co across this and other studies supports our inference of a high degree of metabolic control on the abundance of these trace elements in human bone.
Assessing the boron nutritional status by analyzing its cummulative frequency distribution in the hair and whole blood
2018, Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and BiologyCitation Excerpt :Boron (B) is a non-essential trace element, but an element of many beneficial biochemical and metabolic functions for human health and well-being [1,2]. Boron has an integrative role in the areas of bone metabolism [3,4], vitamin D metabolism [5], joint health [6,7], immunity [8], mental acuity [9], wound healing [10], and proper functioning of endocrine system [4]. In many instances, boron does this by being an essential co-partner with other substances to fine-tune many human physiologic interactions [2].
PIXE study on the effects of parathyroid hormone on elemental content in rat bones
2016, Physica MedicaCitation Excerpt :However, alterations of trace element concentrations in the bone may cause osteoporosis. Researchers have conducted thorough studies on the structure and function of bone, but not on the composition and concentration of elements, especially the trace elements and metal ions in cells, which are relative to their function and physiological and pathological status, and for which information is limited [27]. For example, how crucial Sr is in bone metabolism is not yet fully understood.
