Osteoporosis is a multifactorial disease of high prevalence in the population, and its pathogenesis may result from several factors such as the use of drugs, alcohol consumption, genetic factors, aging, and hormone deficiency, leading to an imbalance in bone remodeling, with high resorption and low deposition of mineralized matrix. The association of this imbalance with estrogen deficienc…
Periodontal disease and osteoporosis are characterized by bone resorption with a high prevalence around the world. Several investigations show a relationship between these two diseases, by means of systemic bone loss and dysregulation of RANK-RANKL-OPG system. Green tea is one of the most common and accessible beverages worldwide, and its flavonoid component epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG…
Mesenchymal stem cells are nowadays considered an important source for tissue replacement. These cells have osteogenic potential and can be used for bone tissue maintenance and repair, being very attractive for tissue engineering. Nevertheless, changes in their behavior might occur in consequence of conditions such as osteoporosis, affecting their ability of auto-renovation and differenti…
itanium implants have been extensively used in orthopedics and dentistry, mainly as a replacement for missing teeth. Titanium is a metal implant of choice due to its high biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, as well as absence of immune response while promoting osseointegration. The biocompatibility of the material depends on cellular response in contact with the surface; therefore,…

Osteoporosis is a multifactorial disease of high prevalence in the population, leading to the loss of bone mass and an imbalance in bone remodeling. The association between this imbalance and estrogen deficiency that occurs in menopausal women is still investigated, suggesting that the reduction in estrogen production by the body itself after menopause favors oxidative stress with the con…
Osteoporosis is a disease of high prevalence worldwide, associated with oxidative stress and leading to an imbalance in the process of bone homeostasis, with high resorption and low deposition of mineralized matrix. There are several current treatments for Osteoporosis, which are effective but presenting a high incidence of undesirable side effects, increasing in the search for effective …
Bone repair is a complex but highly organized process that involves interactions between various types of cells and the extracellular environment. Studies have shown that macrophages contribute to homeostasis and bone regeneration, promoting matrix mineralization by osteoblasts derived from calvaria. Therefore, the objective of the present project will be to carry out the qualitative and …
Osteoporosis is a major concern in public health, mainly affecting elder people and women after menopause. Drug therapy for this disease shows positive effects on bone metabolism but may promote several side effects. Thus, an alternative would be the use of natural substances like grape seed extract (GSE), which has a great antioxidant potential for containing proanthocianidines (PACs). T…
Recent researches are focusing on the improvement of surface treatment of biomaterials to promote an early integration, shortening the post-surgery period. Several trials have been performed to modify surface properties and improve integration and stability. The association between antioxidants and modified biomaterials have been considered, and among them lycopene is suggested to favour …
