We have used biochemical markers of bone turnover to estimate the rate of growth in clinical and equine studies. In addition, the regulation of lipids in bone and connective tissue is an ongoing interest in the laboratory. Voluntary weight reduction increases bone turnover and loss. Calcium supplementation decreases bone turnover during weight reduction in obese postmenopausal women. Adelizzi, R.A., Shapses, S.A., and Members of The Osteoporosis Coalition of New Jersey.
Glycemic control increases bone turnover in patients with diabetes.
Longitudinal bone mineral density changes in female child artistic gymnasts. Diurnal variation of bone turnover in weanling foals to 6 months of age. Moderate caloric restriction increases bone resorption in obese postmenopausal women.
