Shaking Stimuli Can Retard Accelerated Decline of Bone Strength of a Mouse Model Assumed to Represent a Postmenopausal Woman Journal of Analytical Bio-Science Vol. 33, No 4 (2010) 〈Original article〉 Shaking stimuli can retard accelerated decline of bone strength of a mouse model assumed to represent a postmenopausal woman Kouji Yamada*, Kazuhiro Nishii and Takehiko Hida Summary In contrast in elderly people, if bone formation and resorption are out of balance, bone mineral density (BMD) diminishes leading to progressive development of osteoporosis, a cause of easy bone fracture. Standing still for prolonged periods leads to fatigue. Humans tend to avoid this by shifting the body weight unconsciously or consciously left and right or back and forth. Standing in an erect posture on a board that continuously shakes horizontally causes all the skeletal muscles of the body as well as the entire skeleton to act to restore balance. As a result of the application of such shaking–induced stimuli to a reduced–BMD mouse model of postmenopausal osteoporosis, rapid decline in the bone strength of the femur was suppressed. A shaking stimulus such as was used in this study could easily be applied to human beings in future once further study is conducted to validate the results. Key words: Osteogenesis, Bone resorption, Shaking, Physical therapy 1. Introduction (BMD) continues to increase for a while after cessation of linear growth. Generally, bone mass in A rise in average longevity along with improved humans reaches a peak in the late twenties to thirties, treatment for organ disorders and various diseases remaining in a static state for some time thereafter. has rendered age-associated bone mass reduction a With further aging, bone volume is maintained but great clinical issue. This problem needs to be solved mineral content and strength both progressively by elucidation of its pathogenesis and establishment of decrease. After reaching peak bone mass, women appropriate therapeutic options as well as preventive lose cortical bone by 35% and cancellous bone by methods. Postmenopausal women rapidly lose bone 50% until the end of life. Women rapidly lose bone mass within several years of menopause due to mineral content, especially in cancellous component- reduced estrogen action. In human beings, bone dominant bone, immediately after menopause and grows in synchrony with body growth during the bone mass loss continues slowly thereafter for life1). growth period and thereafter bone mineral density In humans, bone loss can be either acute or School of Health Sciences, Fujita Health University, *Corresponding author; Kouji Yamada, Ph.D. 1-98 Kutsukake-cho, Toyoake, Aichi 470-1192, Japan School of Health Sciences, Fujita Health University, 1-98, Kutsukake-cho, Toyoake, Aichi 470-1192, Japan Received for Publication April 9, 2010 Accepted for Publication April 28, 2010 - 355 - Journal of Analytical Bio-Science chronic.

    Julius Wolff Institute in collaboration with the Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery Research Report 2012 / 2013 Julius Wolff Institute in collaboration with the Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery Research Report 2012 / 2013 Welcome With enthusiasm, we look back on two and a half years of exciting research at the Julius Wolff Institute. Recent research findings, be it the surprisingly high in vivo friction moments in total hip replacements, the essential role of TEMRA cells as “bad guys” in bone regeneration or the role of biomaterial as guiding structure in tissue regeneration, showed an essential impact on the understanding in musculoskeletal science on a global scale. Examples of the later are the first completed phase I-IIa clinical trial on stem cells for muscle regeneration or the assessment of a specific implant failure with a recent re- launch of that implant after mechano-biological optimization. As institution, we feel obliged to continue working on both the basic re- Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Prof. Dr.-Ing. search side as well as on clinical research aspects to building bridges Georg N.

We are very proud that our intention to stabilize the institute and continue with a highly dedicated team of scientists was granted with positive reviews of not only the existing programs of the DFG graduate school BSRT and the translational research center BCRT but also with the funding of two major new initiatives, the BMBF research networks on osteoarthritis (OVERLOAD/ PrevOP) and osteoporosis (OSTEOPATH) as well as our DFG research group on regeneration in aged patients (FG 2165).
