Abstract
Skeletal fragility is an increasingly recognised, but poorly understood, complication of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Fracture risk varies according to skeletal site and diabetes-related characteristics. Post-fracture outcomes, including mortality risk, are worse in those with diabetes, placing these people at significant risk. Each fracture therefore represents a sentinel event that warrants targeted management. However, diabetes is a very heterogeneous condition with complex interactions between multiple co-existing, and highly correlated, factors that preclude a clear assessment of the independent clinical markers and pathophysiological drivers for diabetic osteopathy. Additionally, fracture risk calculators and routinely used clinical bone measurements generally underestimate fracture risk in people with diabetes. In the absence of dedicated prospective studies including detailed bone and metabolic characteristics, optimal management centres around selecting treatments that minimise skeletal and metabolic harm. This review summarises the clinical landscape of diabetic osteopathy and outlines the interplay between metabolic and skeletal health. The underlying pathophysiology of skeletal fragility in diabetes and a rationale for considering a diabetes-based paradigm in assessing and managing diabetic bone disease will be discussed.

Abstract
Background Whether the endocrine aberrations caused by polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) might influence bone density in women of reproductive age is controversial. Objectives The present study aimed to compare PCOS women to a control group matched in terms of age and body mass index (BMI) regarding bone indices and to clarify the potential relationship between their hormonal changes and bone density. Methods This case-control study consisted of 61 PCOS patients, and 35 women with normal ovulatory function served as controls. Bone parameters, including bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) in addition to T- and Z-scores, were measured at the lumbar vertebrae, neck of the left femur, hip, and distal part of the radial bone, using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Blood samples were taken to be tested for biochemical parameters and serum concentrations of insulin, osteocalcin, parathyroid hormone (PTH), vitamin D, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), total testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), and estradiol were measured. Insulin resistance was evaluated through the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Results The results revealed greater levels of HOMA-IR and total testosterone in PCOS women than in controls. Nevertheless, the two groups were comparable in terms of bone parameters. In the control group, BMI was the only determinant of bone density at most of the skeletal sites. Nonetheless, BMI and HOMA-IR were independently and positively associated with bone indices at the femoral neck (FN) and total hip in the PCOS group. Parathyroid hormone and vitamin D concentrations were not different in the two groups. However, phosphate levels were higher in PCOS patients (P = 0.025). Osteocalcin was inversely correlated to BMI, and both groups had a negative correlation between DHEAS and PTH. Serum phosphate was inversely and independently associated with estrogen in the PCOS group (r = -0.377, P = 0.004). Conclusions Body mass index and HOMA-IR were independent and positive determinants of FN and total hip bone density in the PCOS subjects. Nonetheless, in the non-PCOS women, BMI was the only independent determinant of bone density at most of the skeletal sites. Additionally, osteocalcin was inversely correlated with BMI in both groups.

Osteoporos Int 2023; 34:1719-1727. [PMID: 37306802 PMCID: PMC10511588 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-023-06807-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
It remains unclear whether the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and bone mineral density (BMD) reflects causality in East Asian populations. Herein, a Mendelian randomization study conducted in East Asian population enhances the current clinical cognition that T2DM is not associated with reduction in BMD. PURPOSE A Mendelian randomization (MR) approach was utilized to investigate the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and bone mineral density (BMD) in East Asian populations. METHODS Genome-wide association study summary data from BioBank Japan were used to identify genetic variants strongly related to T2DM risk (36,614 cases and 155,150 controls) and osteoporosis (7788 cases and 204,665 controls). Heel BMD GWAS data of 1260 East Asian people from ieu open gwas project was considered as a second outcome. Inverse variance-weighted (IVW) analysis was mainly applied; MR-Egger and the weighted median were also used to obtain robust estimates. A series of sensitivity analyses including Cochran's Q test, MR-Egger regression, and leave-one-out analysis were used to detect pleiotropy or heterogeneity. RESULTS In the main analysis, IVW estimates indicated that T2DM significantly associated with the risk of osteoporosis (odds ratio = 0.92, 95% CI: 0.86-0.99, p = 0.016) and with higher BMD (OR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.06-1.46, p = 6.49 × 10-3). Results of comprehensive sensitivity analysis were consistent with the main causality estimate. Horizontal pleiotropy and heterogeneity were absent in our MR study. CONCLUSIONS T2DM is not associated with reduction in BMD in terms of genetic polymorphism in East Asian populations.

Association between the triglyceride-glucose index and calcified aortic stenosis in elderly patients: a cross-sectional study. Sci Rep 2023; 13:14928. [PMID: 37697065 PMCID: PMC10495325 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-42206-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Insulin resistance (IR) is associated with a variety of cardiovascular diseases, but there are few studies on the correlation between IR and calcified aortic stenosis (CAS). In this study, the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, which reflects IR, was used to investigate the correlation between IR and CAS. The study included 183 elderly patients who were diagnosed with CAS by transthoracic echocardiography. The patients were matched 1:1 according to age and sex, and elderly patients who were hospitalized during the same period and underwent transthoracic echocardiography without aortic stenosis were included as the control group. The relationship between the TyG index and CAS was analyzed by a multivariable logistic regression model, curve fitting and trend test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the TyG index as a continuous variable was negatively associated with CAS (P < 0.001); trend tests and curve fitting further supported this association. Our study showed that the TyG index was negatively associated with CAS in elderly patients, which may be related to the impairment of insulin receptors and signaling pathways in IR.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) may be associated with increased risk of fractures, despite preserved bone mineral density (BMD). Obesity and insulin resistance (IR) may have separate effects on bone turnover and bone strength, which contribute to skeletal fragility. We characterized and assessed the relative associations of obesity, body composition, IR, and T2D on bone turnover markers (BTMs), BMD, and advanced hip analysis (AHA). In this cross-sectional analysis of Dubbo Osteoporosis Epidemiology Study, 525 (61.3% women) participants were grouped according to T2D, IR (homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance [HOMA-IR] ≥2.5), and BMI (≥25 kg/m2): insulin-sensitive lean (IS-L), insulin-sensitive overweight/obese (IS-O), insulin-resistant (IR), and T2D. BMD, AHA, and body composition, including visceral adipose tissue (VAT) (on dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scan) and fasting BTMs, were assessed. Analyses performed using Bayesian model averaging and principal component analysis. T2D was associated with low BTMs (by 26%-30% [95% confidence interval [CI] 11%-46%] in women, 35% [95% CI 18%-48%] in men compared to IS-L), which persisted after adjustment for VAT. BTMs were similar among IR/IS-O/IS-L. BMD was similar among T2D/IR/IS-O; BMD was low only in IS-L. All groups were similar after adjustment for BMI. Similarly, AHA components were lowest in IS-L (attenuated following adjustment). On multivariate analysis, T2D was independently associated with BTMs. IR was also associated with C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen in men. Age and body size were the strongest independent contributors to BMD and AHA. VAT was inversely associated with section modulus, cross-sectional area, cross-sectional moment of inertia in women, and hip axis length in men. Low bone turnover is associated with T2D and IR (in men), while BMD and hip strength/geometry are predominantly associated with body size. VAT, indicative of dysglycemia, is also associated with impaired bone geometry. Establishing the role of BTMs and AHA fracture risk may improve skeletal assessment in T2D people. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Objective The effects of insulin resistance (IR) on bone mineral density (BMD) are unclear. This investigation aimed to assess the impact of IR and hyperinsulinemia on bone health. Determine whether IR mediates the link between follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and bone mass in nondiabetic postmenopausal women. Design Retrospective cross-sectional study. Setting Health checkup center of Hangzhou Women's Hospital. Methods This study comprised 437 nondiabetic postmenopausal women. BMD was evaluated using dual-energy X-rays. Fasting sera were analyzed for insulin and glucose levels, and indicators related to IR were determined. By pathway analysis, we examined the indirect effects of FSH on BMD via the mediators Homeostatic Model Assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and fasting insulin (FINS) after correction for confounding factors. Result After adjusting for age and body mass index (BMI) in linear regression, HOMA-IR and FINS were linked with FSH (P<0.05). IR was stronger among women in the normal BMD group than those in the osteoporosis or osteopenia group. In unadjusted models, BMD was greater in those with higher HOMA-IR and FINS (β=0.027, P=0.006 and β=0.033, P=0.003, respectively). After correcting for BMI and other possible variables, these associations remained. In addition, path models for FSH demonstrated a negative association with BMD by HOMA-IR (95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.0174 to -0.0014) and FINS (95% CI: -0.0188 to -0.002). Conclusion Greater IR was associated with increased BMD in nondiabetic postmenopausal women, regardless of BMI and other variables. HOMA-IR or FINS could play a novel mediating role in FSH-induced BMD suppression.

Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effect of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) on bone mineral density (BMD) and the risk of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture in adults. We searched PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Scopus for observational studies published from inception to January 2023 that reported adjusted effect sizes of NAFLD on BMD, osteopenia/osteoporosis, and osteoporotic fracture. The data were synthesized using multilevel and random-effects models. A total of 19 studies were included; of these, nine (21,294 participants) evaluated the effect of NAFLD on BMD, six (133,319 participants) investigated the risk of osteoporosis, and five (227,901 participants) assessed the risk of osteoporotic fracture. This meta-analysis showed that NAFLD was associated with decreased BMD (mean difference -0.019 g/cm2 , 95% confidence interval [CI] -0.036 to -0.002, I2 = 93%) and increased risks of osteoporosis (adjusted risk ratio [RR] = 1.28, 95% CI 1.08 to 1.52, I2 = 84%) and osteoporotic fractures (adjusted RR = 1.17, 95% CI 1.00 to 1.37, I2 = 67%). Subgroup analyses revealed that NAFLD had a significantly detrimental effect on BMD in men and on the BMD of the femoral neck and total hip. Stratified analyses by ethnicity demonstrated that NAFLD was not associated with BMD, osteoporosis, or osteoporotic fracture in non-Asian populations. The publication bias of all included studies was low; however, there was considerable heterogeneity among the studies, warranting a careful interpretation of the findings. Overall, our results suggest that NAFLD is associated with decreased BMD and an increased risk of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fractures. Male sex and the BMD of the femoral neck and total hip may be potential risk factors for decreased BMD in adults with NAFLD. Additionally, ethnic disparities were observed between Asian and non-Asian populations regarding BMD and osteoporotic fractures. © 2023 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is a disease predisposing postmenopausal women to fractures, and often accompanied by insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic syndrome (MetS). Previous studies provided contradictory results concerning prevalence of MetS in postmenopausal OP. To better understand the pathogenesis of IR, we reviewed cellular and molecular aspects and systematically reviewed studies providing homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) index. Bone is an active endocrine organ maintaining its integrity by orchestrated balance between bone formation and resorption. Both osteoblasts and osteoclasts contain receptors for insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) operating in skeletal development and in the adult life. Defects in this system generate systemic IR and bone-specific IR, which in turn regulates glucose homeostasis and energy metabolism through osteocalcin. Examination of genetic syndromes of extreme IR revealed intriguing features namely high bone mineral density (BMD) or accelerated growth. Studies of moderate forms of IR in postmenopausal women reveal positive correlations between HOMA index and BMD while correlations with osteocalcin were rather negative. The relation with obesity remains complex involving regulatory factors such as leptin and adiponectin to which the contribution of potential genetic factors and in particular, the correlation with the degree of obesity or body composition should be added.

Abstract
Importance Whether prediabetes is associated with fracture is uncertain. Objective To evaluate whether prediabetes before the menopause transition (MT) is associated with incident fracture during and after the MT. Design, Setting, and Participants This cohort study used data collected between January 6, 1996, and February 28, 2018, in the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation cohort study, an ongoing, US-based, multicenter, longitudinal study of the MT in diverse ambulatory women. The study included 1690 midlife women in premenopause or early perimenopause at study inception (who have since transitioned to postmenopause) who did not have type 2 diabetes before the MT and who did not take bone-beneficial medications before the MT. Start of the MT was defined as the first visit in late perimenopause (or first postmenopausal visit if participants transitioned directly from premenopause or early perimenopause to postmenopause). Mean (SD) follow-up was 12 (6) years. Statistical analysis was conducted from January to May 2022. Exposure Proportion of visits before the MT that women had prediabetes (fasting glucose, 100-125 mg/dL [to convert to millimoles per liter, multiply by 0.0555]), with values ranging from 0 (prediabetes at no visits) to 1 (prediabetes at all visits). Main Outcomes and Measures Time to first fracture after the start of the MT, with censoring at first diagnosis of type 2 diabetes, initiation of bone-beneficial medication, or last follow-up. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to examine the association (before and after adjustment for bone mineral density) of prediabetes before the MT with fracture during the MT and after menopause. Results This analysis included 1690 women (mean [SD] age, 49.7 [3.1] years; 437 Black women [25.9%], 197 Chinese women [11.7%], 215 Japanese women [12.7%], and 841 White women [49.8%]; mean [SD] body mass index [BMI] at the start of the MT, 27.6 [6.6]). A total of 225 women (13.3%) had prediabetes at 1 or more study visits before the MT, and 1465 women (86.7%) did not have prediabetes before the MT. Of the 225 women with prediabetes, 25 (11.1%) sustained a fracture, while 111 of the 1465 women without prediabetes (7.6%) sustained a fracture. After adjustment for age, BMI, and cigarette use at the start of the MT; fracture before the MT; use of bone-detrimental medications; race and ethnicity; and study site, prediabetes before the MT was associated with more subsequent fractures (hazard ratio for fracture with prediabetes at all vs no pre-MT visits, 2.20 [95% CI, 1.11-4.37]; P = .02). This association was essentially unchanged after controlling for BMD at the start of the MT. Conclusions and Relevance This cohort study of midlife women suggests that prediabetes was associated with risk of fracture. Future research should determine whether treating prediabetes reduces fracture risk.

Abstract
Nifedipine is one of the common calcium channel blockers (CCBs) for hypertension that induce peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1-α, which is envisioned as a potential therapeutic target in bone disease. The findings of this retrospective cohort study suggest that patients who receive nifedipine may have a potential protective effect on osteoporosis in comparison to other CCBs. INTRODUCTION Nifedipine was one L-type dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (CCB) that can improve bone loss. However, epidemiological studies on the association between the use of nifedipine and osteoporosis risk are limited. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the association between the clinical use of nifedipine and the risk of osteoporosis. METHODS This retrospective cohort was conducted using the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan from 2000 to 2013. The study includes 1225 patients receiving nifedipine (the exposed cohort) and 4900 patients receiving other CCBs (the comparison cohort). The primary outcome was the diagnosis of osteoporosis. The hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the association between the use of nifedipine and the risk of osteoporosis. RESULTS Patients receiving nifedipine treatment had a reduced risk of osteoporosis as compared with those undergoing other CCB treatments (adjusted HR, 0.44; 95% CI, 0.37-0.53). Moreover, this inverse association is evident in both sexes and various age groups. CONCLUSIONS This population-based cohort study demonstrated that nifedipine may have potential protective effect on osteoporosis compared with other CCBs. The clinical implications of the present study need further investigation.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Transient insulin resistance seen during puberty is expected to favour body growth, but our results show that increment in insulin resistance even in physiological ranges during puberty might compromise lumbar spine bone mineral density accrual independently of body composition parameters, and therefore adult bone quality might be challenged. INTRODUCTION Insulin resistance (IR) might have a compromising effect on growing bone, and therefore adult bone quality might be challenged. The aim of the present study was to identify whether increases in IR during puberty contribute to bone mineral characteristics in males independently of body composition parameters. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort-based longitudinal observational study. Data from 85 subjects were included. Boys were studied annually during their pubertal years (12 years at baseline) and at follow-up at the age of 18 years. Anthropometry, bone age, fasting blood samples, body composition, total body, and lumbar spine bone mineral characteristics were measured. Insulin resistance was determined by homeostatic model assessment of IR (HOMA-IR). Multiple regression analysis was performed to determine the effect of changes in HOMA-IR during pubertal years as a longitudinal predictor to fixed bone mineral outcome variables at the age of 18 years. All models were adjusted to potential clinically justified confounding variables. RESULTS After adjustment to baseline bone indices and body composition-related predictors, the pubertal increment in the HOMA-IR was a negative independent predictor of lumbar spine bone mineral areal density (β = - 0.202, p = 0.005) and lumbar spine bone mineral apparent density (β = - 0.235, p = 0.005) in 18-year-old males. CONCLUSIONS Pubertal increment in IR has a potential diminishing effect on lumbar spine bone mineral density accrual independently of body composition parameters. Further studies are needed to clarify whether monitoring HOMA-IR during puberty may identify subjects at increased risk of low peak bone mass and possible osteoporosis in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDThe effects of insulin resistance on bone mineral density (BMD) are unclear.METHODSIn Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN) participants, we used multivariable regression to test average insulin resistance (homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance, HOMA-IR) and rate of change in insulin resistance as predictors of rate of change in lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN) BMD in 3 stages: premenopause (n = 861), menopause transition (MT) (n = 571), and postmenopause (n = 693). Models controlled for age, average BW, change in BW, cigarette use, race and ethnicity, and study site.RESULTSThe relation between HOMA-IR and BMD decline was biphasic. When average log2HOMA-IR was less than 1.5, greater HOMA-IR was associated with slower BMD decline; i.e., each doubling of average HOMA-IR in premenopause was associated with a 0.0032 (P = 0.01, LS) and 0.0041 (P = 0.004, FN) g/cm2 per year slower BMD loss. When greater than or equal to 1.5, average log2HOMA-IR was not associated with BMD change. In women in whom HOMA-IR decreased in premenopause, the association between the HOMA-IR change rate and BMD change rate was positive; i.e, slower HOMA-IR decline was associated with slower BMD loss. In women in whom insulin resistance increased in premenopause, the association was negative; i.e, faster HOMA-IR rise was associated with faster BMD decline. Associations of average HOMA-IR and HOMA-IR change rate with BMD change rate were similar in postmenopause, but weaker during the MT.CONCLUSIONWhen it decreases, insulin resistance is associated with BMD preservation; when it increases, insulin resistance is associated with BMD loss.FUNDINGThe SWAN has grant support from the NIH of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) through the NIH National Institute on Aging (NIA), National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), and Office of Research on Women's Health (ORWH) (grants U01NR004061, U01AG012505, U01AG012535, U01AG012531, U01AG012539, U01AG012546, U01AG012553, U01AG012554, U01AG012495, and U19AG063720).

Abstract
(1) Background: This study aimed to investigate the relationship of triglyceride glucose−body mass index (TyG-BMI) with bone mineral density (BMD), femoral neck geometry, and risk of fracture in middle-aged and elderly Chinese individuals. (2) Methods: A total of 832 nondiabetic individuals were selected from the prospective population-based HOPE cohort. All individuals underwent DXA for assessment of BMD at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total hip, as well as femoral neck geometry. The 10-year probabilities of both major osteoporotic (MOFs) and hip fractures (HFs) were calculated. (3) Results: Cortical thickness, compression strength index, cross-sectional moment of inertia, cross-sectional area, section modulus, and 25(OH)D levels were significantly lower in women (all p < 0.001). The presence of osteoporosis was related to age, BMI, BMD and femoral neck geometry, TyG-BMI, MOF, and HF. TyG-BMI was positively correlated with BMD. In men, TyG-BMI showed significant negative correlation with HF but not with MOF, the correlation exists only after adjusting for other variables in women. Femoral neck geometries were significantly impaired in individuals with low TyG-BMI. (4) Conclusion: TyG-BMI is positively associated with BMD and geometry, and negatively associated with risk of fracture in nondiabetic middle-aged and elderly Chinese men and women.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The association between peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and osteoporosis in elderly men with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains unclear. We demonstrated the association between subclinical PAD and decreased total hip bone mineral density (BMD) in men aged ≥ 55 years with T2DM, providing clinical clues for the early detection of decreased bone density in total hip. PURPOSE To investigate the association between subclinical peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and bone mineral density (BMD) at total hip, femoral neck, and lumbar spine (L1-4) in elderly men with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS We identified 2,466 patients with confirmed diabetes in this retrospective cross-sectional study. A total of 272 men aged ≥ 55 years with T2DM (50 with subclinical PAD and 222 without PAD) were analyzed. Partial correlation analysis was conducted to explore the associations between ankle-brachial index (ABI) and BMD. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the contributor for low bone density (T-score < - 1.0). RESULTS Patients with T2DM and subclinical PAD (ABI ≤ 0.9) had significantly lower total hip BMD and T-score (BMD, 0.87 ± 0.14 vs. 0.92 ± 0.15 g/cm2, P = 0.014; T-score, -1.30 [-1.70 to -0.45] vs. -0.80 [-1.40 to 0.00], P = 0.009) than those in the control group. The partial correlation analyses indicated that ABI significantly correlated with the total hip T-score (adjusted r = 0.166, P = 0.009). The logistic regression analysis indicated that subclinical PAD was an independent risk factor for the risk of decreased bone density in total hip (adjusted odds ratio [95% CI]: 8.933 [1.075-74.222], P = 0.043). CONCLUSION: Subclinical PAD (ABI ≤ 0.9) could be used as a risk factor for decreased total hip BMD in men aged ≥ 55 years with T2DM, which provides clinical clues for the early detection of low bone density in total hip in such populations.

Abstract
Bone fragility is a common complication in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, traditional techniques for the evaluation of bone fragility, such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), do not perform well in this population. Moreover, the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) usually underestimates fracture risk in T2DM. Importantly, novel technologies for the assessment of one microarchitecture in patients with T2DM, such as the trabecular bone score (TBS), high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT), and microindentation, are emerging. Furthermore, different serum and urine bone biomarkers may also be useful for the evaluation of bone quality in T2DM. Hence, in this article, we summarize the limitations of conventional tools for the evaluation of bone fragility and review the current evidence on novel approaches for the assessment of quality and bone microstructure alterations in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this cross-sectional study was to comprehensively assess bone health in women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus, including bone microarchitecture (TBS), bone mineral density (BMD, DXA) and bone turnover (osteocalcin). DESIGN, PATIENTS AND MEASUREMENTS Study participants underwent a detailed anthropometric, biochemical and hormone assessment, including insulin and osteocalcin measurement. BMD was measured at lumbar spine, femur neck and total hip using DXA and TBS derived from lumbar spine DXA images using TBS iNsight software. RESULTS A total of 240 women (mean age: 33.3 ± 5.0 years; median postpartum duration: 34 [interquartile range 13.0-54.5] months were evaluated. At the current visit, 115 (47.9%) and 36 (15%) women had prediabetes and diabetes, respectively. Women with dysglycemia (diabetes/prediabetes) had a higher BMD at all three sites, compared to those with normoglycemia; however, the difference was not statistically significant. Women with dysglycemia had a significantly lower TBS (1.32 ± 0.09 vs. 1.35 ± 0.09; p = .038). In the fully adjusted model, the odds ratio for association between diabetes and low TBS was 2.92 (95% confidence interval: 1.20, 7.08; p = .018). Women with dysglycemia had significantly lower serum osteocalcin levels (18.6 ± 8.5 ng/ml vs. 21.5 ± 9.7 ng/ml; p = .018). HOMA-IR (r = -.285, p < .001) was negatively correlated, while Matsuda index (r = .274, p < .001) and disposition index (r = .159, p = .016) were positively correlated with serum osteocalcin levels. CONCLUSIONS Bone health is affected early in the natural history of diabetes and is associated with an overall low bone turnover state.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The involvement of osteocalcin in the regulation of glucose tolerance in humans is controversial. We utilized a novel and practical insulin resistance surrogate, the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, to investigate the association between serum osteocalcin and insulin resistance in men with type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS This was a retrospective cross-sectional study that included 667 male patients suffering from T2D, with measurements of N-terminal mid-fragment of osteocalcin (N-MID), triglycerides (TG), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and C-peptide collected on the same day. We used the TyG index and HOMA-IR as surrogate measures for insulin resistance. Binary logistic regression models that adjust the sociodemographic characteristics and metabolism-related factors were used to assess the associations between osteocalcin and insulin resistance. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis was used to test the potential non-linear relationship between N-MID and the risk of severe insulin resistance. Subgroup analysis evaluated the robustness of the association. RESULTS N-MID was correlated with the level of insulin resistance when quantified by the TyG index in unadjusted and adjusted binary logistic regression models (all p < 0.05), but the relationship was not observed when assessed by HOMA-IR (all p > 0.05). RCS model further confirmed that the association between N-MID and the severe insulin resistance measured by the TyG index was non-linear (P = 0.047). Subgroup analysis showed that the association was detected only in younger patients with lower BMI and poorer glycemic control, without hypertension or smoking. CONCLUSIONS Osteocalcin was inversely associated with the TyG index in men with T2D.

Abstract
Background/Aim. Skeletal muscles and bones are essential tissues that, in addition to supporting the body, are the primary site of postprandial glucose intake, which is significantly associated with insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of insulin resistance on bone mineral density (BMD) and fracture risk and re-evaluate the relationship between muscle properties and BMD and insulin resistance in postmenopausal women in Serbia. Methods. Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated in postmenopausal women who were divided into two groups. The ?cut-off? value of insulin resistance for the group with ?Low HOMA-IR? was < 2, and for ?High HOMA-IR? > 2. Fat mass (FM), lean mass (LM), and BMD were measured on the hip and spine using a densitometer with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Results. FM and LM had an evident impact on BMD. The decrease in LM and fat buildup was associated with a higher incidence of insulin resistance. A positive correlation was confirmed between HOMA-IR and BMD on the spine and hip, but there was no correlation between insulin resistance and fracture risk. Conclusion. LM and FM have significant effects on BMD. The association between LM, FM, BMD and the onset of insulin resistance in postmenopausal women is confirmed. However, women with higher insulin resistance levels and higher BMD do not have a lower fracture risk.

Abstract
We investigated the associations of insulin resistance and β-cell secretion with bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Data on BMD assessed using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry from 5292 participants were analyzed. Insulin resistance and β-cell secretion were assessed using the Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) and β-cell function (HOMA-β), respectively. We divided the study population into four groups according to HOMA-IR (<2 vs. ≥ 2) and HOMA-β (<100 vs. ≥ 100). BMD and T score at the lumbar spine, hip joint, and femur were used for analyses. Osteoporosis was defined as a T score ≤ -2.5. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the associations of HOMA-IR and HOMA-β with osteoporosis, and the joint effects of HOMA-IR and HOMA-β on osteoporosis. We found a positive association between HOMA-IR and osteoporosis in participants with a HOMA-β ≥ 100 (OR 8.773, 95% CI 2.160-35.637, p=0.002 at the femoral neck). A negative association between HOMA-β and osteoporosis was noted in those with a HOMA-IR <2 (OR 0.183, 95% CI 0.038-0.882, p=0.034 at the femoral neck). Compared with participants who had HOMA-IR <2 and HOMA-β <100, those with HOMA-IR <2 and HOMA-β ≥ 100 had a lower risk of osteoporosis (OR 0.126, 95% CI 0.020-0.805, p=0.032 at the femoral neck). In conclusion, the association between HOMA-β and BMD/osteoporosis changed as HOMA-IR increased. HOMA-β was negatively associated with osteoporosis when HOMA-IR <2. The association was not significant when HOMA-IR ≥ 2.

Open Med (Wars) 2021; 16:1583-1590. [PMID: 34722893 PMCID: PMC8530249 DOI: 10.1515/med-2021-0376] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2021] [Revised: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 09/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a strong risk tfactor for osteosarcopenia. The relationship between musculoskeletal index and β-cell function remains controversial. We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics of osteosarcopenia and to explore the association between osteosarcopenia and β-cell function, as well as insulin resistance in patients with T2DM. A total of 150 middle-aged and older nonobese patients with T2DM were recruited. Bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition were measured by the dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scanner. The homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance and Matsuda index were used to evaluate insulin resistance status. β-Cell function was estimated by the area under the curve insulin/glucose (AUC-Ins/Glu) and the area under the curve C-peptide/glucose (AUC-CP/Glu). T2DM patients with osteosarcopenia had lower body mass index, waist circumference, body fat percentage, AUC-Ins/Glu, and AUC-CP/Glu. Both AUC-Ins/Glu (OR = 0.634, P = 0.008) and AUC-CP/Glu (OR = 0.491, P = 0.009) were negatively associated with the presence of osteosarcopenia. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that β-cell function was positively associated with the skeletal muscle mass index, whereas it showed no correlation with lumbar or hip BMD. β-Cell function is associated with osteosarcopenia in middle-aged and older nonobese patients with T2DM. These findings suggest that β-cell function might be a protective factor against osteosarcopenia.

Lower trabecular bone score in type 2 diabetes mellitus: A role for fat mass and insulin resistance beyond hyperglycaemia. DIABETES & METABOLISM 2021; 47:101276. [PMID: 34517124 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabet.2021.101276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2021] [Revised: 08/20/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
AIMS To examine the clinical and biochemical determinants of trabecular bone score (TBS) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. METHODS Cross-sectional observational study in 137 T2DM patients (49-85 years). Whole-body fat percentage was estimated using the relative fat mass (RFM) equation. Bone mineral density (BMD) and TBS were assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and TBS iNsight Software respectively. RESULTS T2DM patients showed significantly lower TBS values (P < 0.001) despite significantly higher lumbar spine BMD (LS-BMD) (P = 0.025) compared to controls. TBS values were negatively correlated with body mass index (BMI) (P < 0.001), waist circumference (P < 0.001), and HOMA-2IR index (P = 0.004) and positively correlated with sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) (P = 0.01) and LS-BMD (P = 0.003). RFM was negatively associated with TBS in both males (P < 0.001) and females (P = 0.005). The multivariate analysis showed that RFM, HOMA2-IR (negative), SHBG, and LS-BMD (positive) were the variables independently associated with TBS. ROC analysis revealed RFM as the variable with the highest predictive value for risk of degraded bone microarchitecture. CONCLUSIONS The adiposity estimated by RFM may negatively affect TBS and this relationship may be influenced by insulin resistance and SHBG. RFM could act as a key estimator of degraded bone microarchitecture risk in the T2DM population.

Abstract
Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and/or cardiovascular disease (CVD), conditions of hyperinsulinaemia, have lower levels of osteocalcin and bone remodelling, and increased rates of fragility fractures. Unlike osteoporosis with lower bone mineral density (BMD), T2DM bone fragility "hyperinsulinaemia-osteofragilitas" phenotype presents with normal to increased BMD. Hyperinsulinaemia and insulin resistance positively associate with increased BMD and fragility fractures. Hyperinsulinaemia enforces glucose fuelling, which decreases NAD+-dependent antioxidant activity. This increases reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial fission, and decreases oxidative phosphorylation high-energy production capacity, required for osteoblasto/cytogenesis. Osteocytes directly mineralise and resorb bone, and inhibit mineralisation of their lacunocanalicular space via pyrophosphate. Hyperinsulinaemia decreases vitamin D availability via adipocyte sequestration, reducing dendrite connectivity, and compromising osteocyte viability. Decreased bone remodelling and micropetrosis ensues. Trapped/entombed magnesium within micropetrosis fossilisation spaces propagates magnesium deficiency (MgD), potentiating hyperinsulinaemia and decreases vitamin D transport. Vitamin D deficiency reduces osteocalcin synthesis and favours osteocyte apoptosis. Carbohydrate restriction/fasting/ketosis increases beta-oxidation, ketolysis, NAD+-dependent antioxidant activity, osteocyte viability and osteocalcin, and decreases excess insulin exposure. Osteocalcin is required for hydroxyapatite alignment, conferring bone structural integrity, decreasing fracture risk and improving metabolic/endocrine homeodynamics. Patients presenting with fracture and normal BMD should be investigated for T2DM and hyperinsulinaemia.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We performed a cross-sectional study using the National Health Examination and Nutrition Survey (NHANES) data and a Mendelian randomisation (MR) study using the GWAS summary statistics from European populations. The T2D-related indices (fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting insulin (FI), and insulin resistance (IR)) were found to associate with elevated bone mineral density (BMD). INTRODUCTION The known associations amongst FPG, FI, IR, and BMD remain inconsistent. This study aims to explore the abovementioned associations by using cross-sectional and MR designs. METHODS Data from adults aged ≥ 20 years (n = 7170) in four rounds of the U.S. NHANES (2005-2010 and 2013-2014) were analysed in this cross-sectional study. Multiple linear and logistic regression models were used for statistical analyses. A two-sample MR study was performed using the genome-wide association study summary statistics obtained from the Meta-analyses of Glucose and Insulin-related traits Consortium (n = 108,557) and Genetic Factors for Osteoporosis Consortium (n = 32,735) to examine the causality of the FI-BMD association. RESULTS Multiple linear regression revealed that FPG was positively associated with the BMDs at the hip, femur neck, and 1st lumbar spine (L1). Multiple logistic regressions revealed that FPG levels were associated with elevated BMDs at the hip and L1, and FI and IR levels were associated with elevated BMD at the hip. Patients with type 2 diabetes had higher hip BMD than those without diabetes. In the MR study, the lumbar spine BMD increased by 0.49 g/cm2 (95% confidence interval: 0.01, 0.97) in response to per unit increase in log-transformed FI. CONCLUSION Findings from our cross-sectional and MR studies revealed the associations between the studied diabetic indices and BMD measurements in the US and European adults.

Association Between Parental Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Diagnosis and Major Osteoporotic Fracture Risk in Adult Offspring: A Population-Based Cohort Study. Can J Diabetes 2021; 46:3-9.e3.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Previous research suggests an intergenerational influence of diabetes on bone health. We examined the association between parental diabetes and major osteoporotic fracture (MOF) risk in offspring. METHODS This population-based cohort study used de-identified administrative health data from Manitoba, Canada, which capture population-level records of hospitalizations, physician visits and drug dispensations. The cohort included individuals 40+ years with at least 1 parent identified in the data between 1997 and 2015. The exposure was parental diagnosis of diabetes since 1970; the outcome was offspring incident MOF diagnosis of the hip, forearm, spine or humerus. Both measures were identified from hospital and physician visit records using validated case definitions. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models tested the association of parental diabetes and offspring MOF risk. RESULTS The cohort included 279,085 offspring; 48.5% were females and 86.8% were ≤44 years of age. Both parents were identified for 89.4% of the cohort; 36.7% had a parental diabetes diagnosis. During a median follow up of 12.0 (interquartile range, 6.0 to 18.0) years, 8,762 offspring had a MOF diagnosis. After adjusting for fracture risk factors, parental diabetes diagnosis was not associated with MOF risk, whether diagnosed in fathers (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.02; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.97 to 1.08), mothers (aHR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.97 to 1.07) or both parents (aHR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.93 to 1.11). The results remained consistent in a stratified analysis by offspring sex, secondary analysis based on MOF site and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSIONS The results indicate parental diabetes is not associated with offspring MOF risk.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Insulin resistance may be linked to bone health in young people. This study is the first on adolescents that jointly examined the association of bone health with insulin resistance and body composition. Our results revealed significant negative association between bone parameters and insulin resistance, even after adjustment for confounding factors. PURPOSE Previous studies are suggestive of the protective role of insulin on bone in adults. Whether this association exists in younger individuals is not clear, yet. This investigation aimed to evaluate the association between insulin resistance, bone parameters, and body composition amongst Iranian adolescents᾽ population. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on 423 participants (224 girls and 199 boys) aged 9-19 years old. Insulin resistance was assessed, using a homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI). Bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), total body fat mass (TBFM), and total body lean mass (TBLM) were measured, using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and bone mineral apparent density (BMAD) was calculated. RESULTS In multiple regression analyses adjusted for potential confounders, the HOMA-IR showed statistically significant negative association with most of the bone parameters (β = - 1.1 to - 0.002, P = 0.004 to 0.036). On the subject of QUICKI index, this relationship was detected only for lumbar spine (LS) parameters (β = 0.062 to 37.21, P = 0.0001 to 0.026) and femoral neck bone mineral content (FNBMC) (β = 1.297, P = 0.013). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that insulin resistance may be inversely and independently associated with the bone indices in younger individuals. Whether high insulin levels have detrimental effects on growing bone is still unclear and has to be answered.

Abstract
Both soft and hard tissue wound healing are impaired in diabetes. Diabetes negatively impacts fracture healing, bone regeneration and osseointegration of endosseous implants. The complex physiological changes associated with diabetes often manifest in immunological responses to wounding and repair where macrophages play a prominent role in determining outcomes. We hypothesized that macrophages in diabetes contribute toward impaired osseous wound healing. To test this hypothesis, we compared osseous wound healing in the mouse calvaria defect model using macrophages from C57BL/6J and db/db mice to direct osseous repair in both mouse strains. Initial analyses revealed that db/db mice macrophages showed an inflamed phenotype in its resting state. Incipient bone regeneration evaluated by μCT indicated that bone regeneration was relatively impaired in the db/db mouse calvaria and in the calvaria of C57BL/6J mice supplemented with db/db macrophages. Furthermore, osteogenic differentiation of mouse mesenchymal stem cells was negatively impacted by conditioned medium from db/db mice compared to C57BL/6J mice. Moreover, miR-Seq analysis revealed an altered miRNA composition in db/db macrophages with up regulated pro-inflammatory miRNAs and down regulated anti-inflammatory miRNAs. Overall, this study represents a direct step toward understanding macrophage-mediated regulation of osseous bone regeneration and its impairment in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
So far, the connections between obesity and skeleton have been extensively explored, but the results are inconsistent. Obesity is thought to affect bone health through a variety of mechanisms, including body weight, fat volume, bone formation/resorption, proinflammatory cytokines together with bone marrow microenvironment. In this review, we will mainly describe the effects of adipokines secreted by white adipose tissue on bone cells, as well as the interaction between brown adipose tissue, bone marrow adipose tissue, and bone metabolism. Meanwhile, this review also reviews the evidence for the effects of adipose tissue and its distribution on bone mass and bone-related diseases, along with the correlation between different populations with obesity and bone health. And we describe changes in bone metabolism in patients with anorexia nervosa or type 2 diabetes. In summary, all of these findings show that the response of skeleton to obesity is complex and depends on diversified factors, such as mechanical loading, obesity type, the location of adipose tissue, gender, age, bone sites, and secreted cytokines, and that these factors may exert a primary function in bone health.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Adiposity has a complex relationship with bone health. In 4865 Australian baby boomers (2642 females) aged 45-70 years, we found that higher visceral adipose tissue mass is associated with reduced bone density adjusting for body mass and lifestyle factors, suggesting that excess visceral fat may be deleterious to bone. INTRODUCTION Increased body mass is associated with higher bone mineral density (BMD), but higher visceral adipose tissue (VAT) may have a negative impact on bone health. In the Busselton Healthy Ageing Study, we examined associations between VAT mass and BMD in 4865 participants (2642 females) aged 45-70 years. METHODS VAT mass and BMD of whole body, total hip, femoral neck and lumbar spine were measured using DXA. VAT mass was examined as a continuous variable and in quartiles using sex-specific cut-offs. RESULTS The mean age was 58.0 ± 5.8 years. Males had significantly higher BMI (28.3 ± 3.7 vs 27.5 ± 4.9 kg/m2) and VAT mass (1675 ± 878 vs 882 ± 600 g) than females (both P < 0.001). In males, after adjustment for age, body mass, height and lifestyle factors, VAT mass negatively associated with total body, total hip and femoral neck BMD (β = - 0.153 to - 0.293, all P < 0.001). Males in the highest quartile of VAT mass (> 2200 g) had significantly lower BMD at all three sites than those in lower quartiles, with estimated BMD differences of 2.3-5.7% (all P < 0.05). In females, VAT mass negatively associated with total body, femoral neck and lumbar spine BMD (β = - 0.067 to - 0.178, all P < 0.05) and those in the highest quartile (> 1250 g) had significantly lower total body BMD than other quartiles (by 1.7-3.7%, all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION In middle-aged Australians, after covariate adjustment, higher DXA-derived VAT mass is associated with reduced bone density, suggesting that excess visceral fat may be deleterious to bone, especially in males.

Abstract
It has been suggested that visceral fat (VF) might be a negative determinant of bone health. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to assess an interplay among fat, visceral fat (VF), muscle mass, bone mineral density (BMD), and markers of bone turnover in men aged 60-75 years. BMD, lean mass, total fat, VF and appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) were assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Using ELISA assays, we measured serum levels of markers of bone turnover (osteocalcin, parathyroid hormone, human procollagen I N-terminal peptide, and degradation products of C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen). Mean values of bone markers were within normal range. VF was found not to be associated with BMD and bone turnover markers. ASM was inversely correlated with age, and positively with BMD and lean mass. In linear regression, ASM, VF, total fat, lean mass and body mass index were significant single predictors of BMD. However, after adjustment for age, all these associations were no longer significant. In conclusion, in contrast to some studies on postmenopausal women, in older non-diabetic men with normal lean mass and body fat VF was not associated with BMD and markers of bone formation and resorption.

Influence of Physical Activity Level on Composite Indices of Femoral Neck Strength in a Group of Young Overweight Men. J Clin Densitom 2020; 23:596-603.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to explore the influence of physical activity level on composite indices of femoral neck strength (compression strength index [CSI], bending strength index, and impact strength index) in a group of young overweight men. To do so, we compared composite indices of femoral neck strength in active overweight men and insufficiently active overweight men. They were divided into 2 groups based on their physical activity level: 70 active overweight men (engaging in more than 150 minutes of physical activity per week; 8.7 ± 4.8 h/wk) and 26 insufficiently active overweight men (engaging in less than 150 minutes of physical activity per week; 1.2 ± 0.7 h/wk). Height (m) and weight (kg) were measured, and body mass index (kg/m2) was calculated. Bone mineral density was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at whole body, lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck. Body weight, lean mass, fat mass, and body mass index were not significantly different between the 2 groups. CSI, bending strength index, and impact strength index were significantly higher in active overweight men compared to insufficiently active overweight men. After adjustment for age, physical activity (h/wk) and lean mass, only CSI remained higher in active overweight men compared to insufficiently active overweight men. This study suggests that, in young overweight men, being active (engaging in more than 150 minutes of physical activity per week) is associated with greater composite indices of femoral neck strength. To our knowledge, this is the first study that finds a significant difference regarding composite indices of femoral neck strength between 2 groups of young overweight men with different levels of physical activity.

Relationship between Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), Trabecular Bone Score (TBS), and Three-Dimensional Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (3D-DXA) in Non-Diabetic Postmenopausal Women. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9061732. [PMID: 32503328 PMCID: PMC7355807 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9061732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2020] [Revised: 05/16/2020] [Accepted: 05/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin may play a key role in bone metabolism, where the anabolic effect predominates. This study aims to analyze the relationship between insulin resistance and bone quality using the trabecular bone score (TBS) and three-dimensional dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (3D-DXA) in non-diabetic postmenopausal women by determining cortical and trabecular compartments. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted in non-diabetic postmenopausal women with suspected or diagnosed osteoporosis. The inclusion criteria were no menstruation for more than 12 months and low bone mass or osteoporosis as defined by DXA. Glucose was calculated using a Hitachi 917 auto-analyzer. Insulin was determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (EIA). Insulin resistance was estimated using a homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). DXA, 3D-DXA, and TBS were thus collected. Moreover, we examined bone parameters according to quartile of insulin, hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c), and HOMA-IR. RESULTS In this study, we included 381 postmenopausal women. Women located in quartile 4 (Q4) of HOMA-IR had higher values of volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) but not TBS. The increase was higher in the trabecular compartment (16.4%) than in the cortical compartment (6.4%). Similar results were obtained for insulin. Analysis of the quartiles by HbA1c showed no differences in densitometry values, however women in Q4 had lower levels of TBS. After adjusting for BMI, statistical significance was maintained for TBS, insulin, HOMA-IR, and HbA1c. CONCLUSIONS In non-diabetic postmenopausal women there was a direct relationship between insulin resistance and vBMD, whose effect is directly related to greater weight. TBS had an inverse relationship with HbA1c, insulin, and insulin resistance unrelated to weight. This might be explained by the formation of advanced glycosylation products (AGEs) in the bone matrix, which reduces bone deformation capacity and resistance, as well as increases fragility.

Abstract
AIMS This meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the fracture risk among patients with T2DM treated with sulfonylurea. METHODS The PubMed and other databases were searched for eligible studies. Both randomized controlled trials and observational studies that compared the fracture risk of sulfonylurea to other hypoglycemic agents were included. Pooled risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. Subgroup analysis and meta-regression analyses were conducted to explore the source of heterogeneity. RESULTS A total of 11 studies involving 255,644 individuals were included in our meta-analysis. In comparing sulfonylurea users with patients who had not taken sulfonylurea, the pooled risk ratio for developing fracture was 1.14 (95% confifidence interval, 1.08-1.19). In subgroup analyses, the pooled risk ratio of bone fracture in patients receiving sulfonylurea versus thiazolidinedione, metformin and insulin was 0.90 (95% CI, 0.76-1.06), 1.25 (95% CI, 1.18-1.32) and 0.81 (95% CI, 0.74-0.89) respectively. Meta regression showed that age and gender were not related to the effect of sulfonylurea on fracture. CONCLUSIONS Sulfonylurea use was associated with 14% increase in the risk of developing fracture in T2DM. The risk of fracture caused by sulfonylurea was similar to thiazolidinedione, higher than metformin and lower than insulin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A first-degree family history of diabetes (FHD) contributes to increased risks of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Bone is an insulin-resistant site and an organ susceptible to microvascular complications. The goal of the present study was to investigate the association of FHD with bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women. METHODS In all, 892 normoglycemic postmenopausal women were divided into subgroups of participants with or without a first-degree FHD. BMD was measured using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Fasting plasma insulin and glucose levels were measured, and insulin resistance was evaluated using the Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) index. RESULTS The BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck were much higher in the participants with a first-degree FHD than in those without an FHD (all P < 0.05). Lumbar spine BMD and femoral neck BMD were both positively associated with HOMA-IR (P = 0.041 and P = 0.005, respectively). Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that a first-degree FHD was an independent factor that was positively associated with lumbar spine BMD (standardized β = 0.111, P = 0.001) and femoral neck BMD (standardized β = 0.078, P = 0.021). A first-degree FHD was associated with increased BMD, insulin resistance, and hyperinsulinemia. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicated that normoglycemic postmenopausal women with a first-degree FHD exhibit increased BMD with insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. A first-degree FHD was an independent factor associated with elevated BMD in Chinese women after menopause.

Abstract
Bone fragility has been recognized as a complication of diabetes, both type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D), whereas the relationship between prediabetes and fracture risk is less clear. Fractures can deeply impact a diabetic patient’s quality of life. However, the mechanisms underlying bone fragility in diabetes are complex and have not been fully elucidated. Patients with T1D generally exhibit low bone mineral density (BMD), although the relatively small reduction in BMD does not entirely explain the increase in fracture risk. On the contrary, patients with T2D or prediabetes have normal or even higher BMD as compared with healthy subjects. These observations suggest that factors other than bone mass may influence fracture risk. Some of these factors have been identified, including disease duration, poor glycemic control, presence of diabetes complications, and certain antidiabetic drugs. Nevertheless, currently available tools for the prediction of risk inadequately capture diabetic patients at increased risk of fracture. Aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of bone health and the mechanisms responsible for increased susceptibility to fracture across the spectrum of glycemic status, spanning from insulin resistance to overt forms of diabetes. The management of bone fragility in diabetic patient is also discussed.

Abstract
CONTEXT Adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have higher fracture risk compared with nondiabetics, despite having higher bone mineral density (BMD). Insulin resistance (IR) has been associated with increased BMD. It is not known if IR increases fracture risk. OBJECTIVE We investigated the relationship among IR HOMA-IR, BMD, and incident nonspine fractures in nondiabetic individuals. DESIGN Participants included 2398 community-dwelling, nondiabetic older adults (age 74 ± 3 years, 53% women, 38% black) in the Health, Aging and Body Composition Prospective Cohort Study [median follow-up: 12 (interquartile range: 6) years]. RESULTS The cut-off values for the HOMA-IR quartiles were 1.05, 1.54, and 2.33. Total hip BMD was 0.104 g/cm2 higher in the fourth vs the first HOMA-IR quartile (P < 0.001). This difference was attenuated after adjustment for BMI (adjusted mean difference 0.007 g/cm2; P = 0.371). In unadjusted models, fracture risk was lower in those with higher HOMA-IR [hazard ratio (HR) 0.86 (95% CI 0.73 to 1.01) and 0.65 (95% CI 0.47 to 0.89) for the third and fourth quartile, respectively, vs the first quartile]. However, after adjustment for BMD and BMI, fracture risk was significantly higher in the third quartile (HR 1.19, 95% CI 1.00 to 1.41) and tended to be increased in the fourth quartile (HR 1.12, 95% CI 0.87 to 1.46) vs the first quartile. CONCLUSIONS Greater IR is associated with higher BMD in nondiabetic older adults. In contrast to the relationship between T2D and fracture risk, we did not find consistent evidence that greater IR is associated with increased fracture risk after adjustment for BMI and BMD.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease, characterised by low bone mass and deterioration in the micro-architecture of bone tissue, which causes increased bone fragility and consequently greater susceptibility to fractures. It is the most frequent metabolic bone disease in our population, and fractures resulting from osteoporosis are becoming more common. Furthermore, vascular calcification is a recognised risk factor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality that historically has been considered a passive and degenerative process. However, it is currently recognised as an active process, which has histopathological characteristics, mineral composition and initiation and development mechanisms characteristic of bone formation. Paradoxically, patients with osteoporosis frequently show vascular calcifications. Traditionally, they have been considered as independent processes related to age, although more recent epidemiological studies have shown that there is a close relationship between the loss of bone mass and vascular calcification, regardless of age. In fact, both conditions share risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms. These include the relationship between proteins of bone origin, such as osteopontin and osteoprotegerin (OPG), with vascular pathology, and the intercellular protein system RANK/RANKL/OPG and the Wnt signalling pathway. The mechanisms linked in both pathologies should be considered in clinical decisions, given that treatments for osteoporosis could have unforeseen effects on vascular calcification, and vice versa. In short, a better understanding of the relationship between both entities can help in proposing strategies to reduce the increasing prevalence of vascular calcification and osteoporosis in the aging population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The impact of the two adipokines, visfatin and retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP-4) on bone mineral density (BMD) has been analysed in various studies with conflicting results. Visfatin is highly expressed in visceral fat with stimulatory effect on osteoblast proliferation and inhibition on osteoclast formation, while RBP-4 acts as a transporter protein for retinol, associated with changes in insulin sensitivity, independent of obesity, with no consensus on its effect on bone metabolism. We evaluated the relationship between serum concentrations of visfatin, RBP-4, markers of insulin resistance and current BMD in treated postmenopausal osteoporosis (PO). METHODS Demographics, previous treatment, metabolic status, anthropometry, serum Alkaline phosphatise (ALP), visfatin, RBP-4, the HOMA IR (homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance) index and BMD were evaluated in 61 subjects with PO. Statistical analysis used SPSS v. 25.0, with a level of significance α = 0.05. Regression models were constructed to evaluate the relationship between adipokines and BMD, adjusting for covariates. RESULTS In multilinear regression analysis, the strongest predictor for current BMD was a previous BMD, followed by ALP and age. RBP4 and HOMA IR were significant predictors, while visfatin had no significant effect. A significant correlation between body mass index (BMI) and BMD at the femoral neck was observed. ALP was negatively correlated with BMD and visfatin positively with RBP4. CONCLUSIONS Data indicate a positive relationship between BMD and RBP-4, an inverse relationship between markers of insulin resistance, bone turn-over and current BMD. No significant effect of visfatin on BMD was observed.

[PMID: 31007738 PMCID: PMC6468519 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2019.7461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2018] [Accepted: 02/22/2019] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been reported to have an enhanced risk of bone fracture, however the association between insulin treatment and risk of fracture in patients with T2DM remains to be fully elucidated. The aim of the present meta-analysis was to examine the possible association between insulin treatment and risk of fracture in patients with T2DM. Relevant studies published prior to and including April 2018 were identified by literature searches in PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library databases. A meta-analysis was performed, which included relevant trials of patients with T2DM comparing insulin to oral anti-diabetic drugs. The combined effect was expressed as a pooled risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence interval (CI), using a random-effects model. Subgroup analysis was performed to consolidate the results. A total of 7 studies comprising 138,690 patients were eligible for inclusion in the present meta-analysis. After exclusion of one study that introduced major heterogeneity, treatment with, insulin was associated with a significantly increased risk of fracture among patients with T2DM (RR=1.24, 95% CI, 1.07–1.44; P=0.004). Subgroup analysis by sex indicated that the RR for men was 1.04 (95% CI, 0.76–1.44, P=0.801) and that for women was 1.22 (95% CI, 0.92–1.62, P=0.175). Subgroup analysis by fracture site indicated that the RR for hip was 1.18 (95% CI, 0.83–1.68, P=0.363), that for vertebrae was 1.28 (95% CI, 0.90–1.81, P=0.169) and that for non-vertebrae was 1.06 (95% CI, 0.80–1.41, P=0.686). Subgroup analysis by study design suggested that the RR for prospective and retrospective studies was 1.35 (95% CI, 1.06–1.71, P=0.014) and 1.16 (95% CI, 0.99–1.35, P=0.059), respectively. Subgroup analysis by region indicated that the RR for Europe was 1.16 (95% CI, 0.91–1.48, P=0.220), that for North America was 1.24 (95% CI, 0.81–1.90, P=0.333) and that for Asia was 1.34 (95% CI, 0.91–1.98, P=0.141). In conclusion, treatment with insulin increased the risk of fractures among patients with T2DM compared with oral anti-diabetic drugs; however, the association was influenced by various factors, including sex, fracture site, study design and geographical region.

Abstract
Obesity, and associated metabolic syndrome, have been identified as primary risk factors for the development of knee osteoarthritis (OA), representing nearly 60% of the OA patient population. In this study, we sought to determine the effects of prebiotic fibre supplementation, aerobic exercise, and the combination of the two interventions, on the development of metabolic knee osteoarthritis in a high-fat/high-sucrose (HFS) diet-induced rat model of obesity. Twelve-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into five groups: a non-exercising control group fed a standard chow diet, a non-exercising group fed a HFS diet, a non-exercising group fed a HFS diet combined with prebiotic fibre supplement, an exercise group fed a HFS diet, and an exercise group fed a HFS diet combined with prebiotic fibre supplement. Outcome measures included knee joint damage, percent body fat, insulin sensitivity, serum lipid profile, serum endotoxin, serum and synovial fluid cytokines and adipokines, and cecal microbiota. Prebiotic fibre supplementation, aerobic exercise, and the combination of the two interventions completely prevented knee joint damage that is otherwise observed in this rat model of obesity. Prevention of knee damage was associated with a normalization of insulin resistance, leptin levels, dyslipidemia, gut microbiota, and endotoxemia in the HFS-fed rats.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of pioglitazone on bone metabolism are unclear. This study evaluated the long-term effects of pioglitazone on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone metabolism in patients with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). METHODS Ninety-two patients with prediabetes or T2DM and biopsy-proven NASH with BMD and baseline biochemical bone measurements were included. Patients (mean [±SEM] age 51 ± 1 years, 71% male, mean body mass index 34.5 ± 0.5 kg/m2 ) were randomly assigned to pioglitazone (45 mg/day) or placebo for 18 months, followed by an 18-month open-label pioglitazone treatment phase. Baseline, 18- and 36-month evaluations included plasma vitamin D and bone turnover biomarker levels, and BMD measurements at the spine, femoral neck, total hip, and one-third radius. RESULTS After 18 months of pioglitazone treatment, there were no differences in BMD versus placebo at either the femoral neck (P =0.87), total hip (P =0.78), or one-third radius (P =0.44); however, bone density decreased at the level of the spine with pioglitazone (-3.5%; P =0.002). During the extension phase (18-36 months), patients had no further decreases in BMD or plasma biomarkers of bone turnover during pioglitazone treatment. No patient experienced a low-energy bone fracture. CONCLUSIONS Treatment of patients with prediabetes or T2DM with pioglitazone for up to 3 years was associated with decreased BMD at the level of the lumbar spine. This reduction in BMD at the lumbar spine at 18 months versus placebo suggests an early deleterious effect of pioglitazone on bone metabolism.

Abstract
Persons with type 1 or type 2 diabetes have a significantly higher fracture risk than age-matched persons without diabetes, attributed to disease-specific deficits in the microarchitecture and material properties of bone tissue. Therefore, independent effects of diabetes drugs on skeletal integrity are vitally important. Studies of incretin-based therapies have shown divergent effects of different agents on fracture risk, including detrimental, beneficial, and neutral effects. The sulfonylurea class of drugs, owing to its hypoglycemic potential, is thought to amplify the risk of fall-related fractures, particularly in the elderly. Other agents such as the biguanides may, in fact, be osteo-anabolic. In contrast, despite similarly expected anabolic properties of insulin, data suggests that insulin pharmacotherapy itself, particularly in type 2 diabetes, may be a risk factor for fracture, negatively associated with determinants of bone quality and bone strength. Finally, sodium-dependent glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors have been associated with an increased risk of atypical fractures in select populations, and possibly with an increase in lower extremity amputation with specific SGLT2I drugs. The role of skeletal muscle, as a potential mediator and determinant of bone quality, is also a relevant area of exploration. Currently, data regarding the impact of glucose lowering medications on diabetes-related muscle atrophy is more limited, although preclinical studies suggest that various hypoglycemic agents may have either aggravating (sulfonylureas, glinides) or repairing (thiazolidinediones, biguanides, incretins) effects on skeletal muscle atrophy, thereby influencing bone quality. Hence, the therapeutic efficacy of each hypoglycemic agent must also be evaluated in light of its impact, alone or in combination, on musculoskeletal health, when determining an individualized treatment approach. Moreover, the effect of newer medications (potentially seeking expanded clinical indication into the pediatric age range) on the growing skeleton is largely unknown. Herein, we review the available literature regarding effects of diabetes pharmacotherapy, by drug class and/or by clinical indication, on the musculoskeletal health of persons with diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Vitamin D plays an important role in skeletal growth and maintenance and in the prevention of various diseases. We investigated the relationship between vitamin D intake and bone mineral density (BMD) in Korean adults aged ≥ 50 years using the 2009 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data. SUBJECTS/METHODS This study was conducted in 1,808 subjects aged ≥ 50 years with BMD data in Korea. Dietary vitamin D levels were assessed by the 24-hour recall method. BMD was measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. We investigated general characteristics and the association between these characteristics, vitamin D status, and BMD. RESULTS Vitamin D intake was significantly lower in the osteoporosis group among women (P < 0.05). Among all subjects, the higher the serum 25(OH)D concentration, the higher the whole-body total BMD (WBT-BMD), femoral total hip BMD, and femoral neck BMD (P < 0.01). In the serum vitamin D-deficient group of both the total population and women, serum 25(OH)D concentration was associated with WBT-BMD (P < 0.05). Among women with a calcium intake < 537.74 mg/day, BMD of those with a vitamin D intake > 2.51 µg/day (average intake of women) was higher than that of women with a vitamin D intake ≤ 2.51 µg/day (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Korean adults should increase their BMD by increasing serum 25(OH)D concentration. Furthermore, increasing vitamin D intake could improve BMD, especially in Korean women who consume less calcium than the estimated average requirement.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) cases are increasing worldwide, especially in Saudi Arabia. Previous studies suggested a positive relationship between body mass index (BMI) and bone mineral density (BMD) levels. Generally, patients with low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2) have reduced BMD levels and, thus, low T-scores; hence, they are categorized as osteopenic or osteoporotic. In this study, we aimed to determine whether a relationship between BMI and BMD T-scores in the hip and spine regions of patients with diabetes exists. This retrospective record review investigated older adult patients with diabetes in King Abdulaziz University Hospital (n=198; age 50-90 years) who underwent BMD scan between January 1, 2016, and June 25, 2018, regardless of their sex but limited to type 2 DM. The height and weight of all subjects were recorded, and BMI was calculated and categorized. We used SPSS version 21 for data analysis; measures of central tendencies, Pearson's correlations, chi-square tests, and independent t-tests were employed. We found positive relationships between BMI and BMD T-scores in the hip and spine regions (right femoral neck: R=+0.214, P ≤ 0.002; total right hip: R=+0.912, P ≤ 0.001; left femoral neck: R=+0.939, P ≤ 0.001; total left hip: R=+0.885, P ≤ 0.001; and total lumbar region: R=+0.607, P ≤ 0.001). Low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2) could be a risk factor for osteoporosis, whereas normal/high BMI could be protective against osteoporosis among adults with diabetes.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Some antihyperglycemic medications have been found to affect bone metabolism. We assessed the long-term effects of metformin compared with placebo on bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS) in patients with type 2 diabetes. Metformin had no significant effect on BMD in the spine and hip or TBS compared with a placebo. INTRODUCTION Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have an increased risk of fractures despite a high bone mass. Some antihyperglycemic medications have been found to affect bone metabolism. We assessed the long-term effects of metformin compared with placebo on bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS). METHODS This was a sub-study of a multicenter, randomized, 18-month placebo-controlled, double-blinded trial with metformin vs. placebo in combination with different insulin regimens (the Copenhagen Insulin and Metformin Therapy trial) in patients with T2DM. BMD in the spine and hip and TBS in the spine were assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline and after 18 months follow-up. RESULTS Four hundred seven patients were included in this sub-study. There were no between-group differences in BMD or TBS. From baseline to 18 months, TBS decreased significantly in both groups (metformin group, - 0.041 [- 0.055, - 0.027]; placebo group - 0.046 [- 0.058, - 0.034]; both p < 0.001). BMD in the spine and total hip did not change significantly from baseline to 18 months. After adjustments for gender, age, vitamin D, smoking, BMI, duration of T2DM, HbA1c, and insulin dose, the TBS between-group differences increased but remained non-significant. HbA1c was negatively associated with TBS (p = 0.009) as was longer duration of diabetes, with the femoral neck BMD (p = 0.003). Body mass index had a positive effect on the hip and femoral neck BMD (p < 0.001, p = 0.045, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Eighteen months of treatment with metformin had no significant effect on BMD in the spine and hip or TBS in patients with T2DM compared with a placebo. TBS decreased significantly in both groups. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT00657943).

Abstract
Excess fat deposition and insulin resistance are considered the main risk factors for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and therefore, not surprisingly, the global prevalence of NAFLD increases in parallel with both obesity and type 2 diabetes. Although deterioration of bone homeostasis in patients with NAFLD is commonly observed, its etiology has not been fully elucidated yet. It was shown in several studies that bone tissue seems to be independently associated with NAFLD. A mechanistic perspective puts the liver at the center of mutual interdependencies obviously involving adipose tissue and muscles and also the bone matrix and bone cells, which are relatively novel. In this review, various pathophysiological mechanisms and possible mediating molecules that may interplay between NAFLD and bone tissue are described. Chronic inflammation, vitamin D3, growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1, osteopontin, fetuin-A, irisin, osteocalcin, and osteoprotegerin from osteoblasts have been proposed as mediators of mutual interactions among the skeleton, fatty tissue, and liver. Although to date there are still many issues that have not been elucidated, growing evidence suggests that screening and surveillance of bone mineral density in patients with NAFLD should be considered in future strategies and guidelines for NAFLD management.

Real-world antidiabetic drug use and fracture risk in 12,277 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a nested case-control study. Osteoporos Int 2018; 29:2079-2086. [PMID: 29860664 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-018-4581-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2018] [Accepted: 05/16/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED We conducted a nested case-control study to study the association between antidiabetic treatments (alone or in combination) use and fracture risk among incident type 2 Diabetes mellitus patients. We found an increased risk of bone fracture with insulin therapy compared to metformin monotherapy. INTRODUCTION Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have an increased risk of fragility fractures, to which antidiabetic therapies may contribute. We aimed to characterize the risk of fracture associated with different antidiabetic treatments as usually prescribed to T2DM patients in actual practice conditions. METHODS A case-control study was nested within a cohort of incident T2DM patients registered in 2006-2012 in the Information System for Research Development in Primary Care (Catalan acronym, SIDIAP), a database which includes records for > 5.5 million patients in Catalonia (Spain). Each case (incident major osteoporotic fracture) was risk-set matched with up to five same-sex controls by calendar year of T2DM diagnosis and year of birth (± 10 years). Study exposure included previous use of all antidiabetic medications (alone or in combination), as dispensed in the 6 months before the index date, with metformin (MTF) monotherapy, the most commonly used drug, as a reference group (active comparator). RESULTS Data on 12,277 T2DM patients (2049 cases and 10,228 controls) were analyzed. Insulin use was associated with increased fracture risk (adjusted OR 1.63 (95% CI 1.30-2.04)), as was the combination of MTF and sulfonylurea (SU) (adjusted OR 1.29 (1.07-1.56)), compared with MTF monotherapy. Sensitivity analyses suggest possible causality for insulin therapy but not for the MTF + SU combination association. No significant association was found with any other antidiabetic medications. CONCLUSIONS Insulin monotherapy was associated with an increased fracture risk compared to MTF monotherapy in T2DM patients. Fracture risk should be taken into account when starting a glucose-lowering drug as part of T2DM treatment.

PDGF Restores the Defective Phenotype of Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells from Diabetic Patients. Mol Ther 2018; 26:2696-2709.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that affects 415 million people worldwide. This pathology is often associated with long-term complications, such as critical limb ischemia (CLI), which increases the risk of limb loss and mortality. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) represent a promising option for the treatment of diabetes complications. Although MSCs are widely used in autologous cell-based therapy, their effects may be influenced by the constant crosstalk between the graft and the host, which could affect the MSC fate potential. In this context, we previously reported that MSCs derived from diabetic patients with CLI have a defective phenotype that manifests as reduced fibrinolytic activity, thereby enhancing the thrombotic risk and compromising patient safety. Here, we found that MSCs derived from diabetic patients with CLI not only exhibit a prothrombotic profile but also have altered multi-differentiation potential, reduced proliferation, and inhibited migration and homing to sites of inflammation. We further demonstrated that this aberrant cell phenotype is reversed by the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) BB, indicating that PDGF signaling is a key regulator of MSC functionality. These findings provide an attractive approach to improve the therapeutic efficacy of MSCs in autologous therapy for diabetic patients.
