This study examined the effects of excess intake of calcium (Ca) and iron (Fe) supplement on bone loss, nephrocalcinosis and renal function in osteoporotic model rats. Seven-week-old female rats were first fed a Ca-deficient diet for four weeks after ovariectomy operation, and then one of nine experimental diets for additional eight weeks, containing three levels of Ca, normal (0.5%) or high (1.5%) or excess (2.5%) and three levels of Fe, normal (35ppm) or high (210ppm) or excess (350ppm). The osteoporotic model rats showed a remarkable increase in body weight, serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and decrease in breaking force, Ca, P, Mg contents of femur. Serum Ca concentration was not significantly affected by dietary Ca and Fe levles. Liver Ca content increased in rats fed a high-and excess-Ca diet. Kidney Ca content and microscopic Ca deposition remarkably increased in osteoporotic model rats compared to control group, and showed a tendency to decrease in rats fed a excess-Ca diet. Breaking force of femur increased with increasing dietary Ca levels, but Ca, P contents of femur and serum ALP were not significantly affected by dietary Ca and Fe levels. Serum total protein decreased in rats fed a excess-Ca diet, BUN increased in rats fed a excess-Ca diet, while serum uric acid and creatinine were not significantly affected by dietary Ca levels. Urinary creatinine, GFR increased in rats fed a high-and excess-Ca, diet, and GFR was highest in rats fed a excess-Ca/excess-Fe diet. These results suggest that excess intake of Ca may increase breaking force of femur, but not increase mineral contents of femur, and decrease kidney function. Furthermore, excess intake of Fe and Ca concurrently may aggravate kidney function leading to potential health problems in ovariectomized osteoporotic model rats.

인삼의 2년생 포장의 토양 성분, 청초 성분 및 추비 원료를 분석하여 인삼의 무기염 류 요구량과의 관계에서 추비의 시비 여부를 판정하는 기준을 시도하였다. 2∼6년생 인삼 식물의 무기염류 흡수량은 칸당 32-42본식을 기준으로 하여 질소 8.3∼9.9kg, 인산 1.2∼1.5kg 및 가리 6.4∼7.gkg/10a이였다. 2년생 삼포의 토양 성분은 2∼6년생 인삼의 요구량보다 질소는 36배, 인은 1.2배 및 가리는 20배나 많이 함유하고 있었다. 관용적 재배조건에서 질소와 가리는 2∼6년생 인삼에 추비할 필요가 없는 것으로 판단되었지만, 인산은 2년생 포장의 함량이 적을뿐 아니라 흡수효율이 낮고, 인 삼포에 유기질 함량이 많으면, 농용 석회로 토양의 산성도를 중화하지 못하는 인삼 재 배의 특수성 때문에 인산 비료만은 추비할 것이 요구되었다. 인산의 추비원료로서 질소와 가리 성분이 비교적 적고 인산 성분이 많으며 지효성인 골분이 권장할 수 있는 추비로 기대되었다.

The effect of the level of casein phosphopeptide (CPP) on mineral (Ca and P) bioavailabilties and bone biomarker of aged ovariectomized (OVX) Sprague-Dawley rats were studied as a model for postmenopausal bone loss. Forty five Spargue dawley rats, 220-230 g of body weight were fed a control diet (AIN 93M) or containing different level of CPP diet for 7 weeks: $0\%$ (sham control; SC, OVX control; OC), $1\%$ (OVX low CPP diet: OL), $2\%$ (OVX medium CPP diet; OM), $3\%$ (OVX high CPP diet; OH) Ca absorption was unaffected by increasing CPP content from 0 to $3\%$. Urinary Ca excretion was increased by OVX, and decreased by CPP significantly (p < 0.05) with no evident doserelationship. The urinary P excretion was increased by CPP intake in OVX rats. The fecal excretion of P given CPP decreased in OVX with dose dependent manner. Ca and P contents of femur significantly increased by adding 2 or $3\%$ of CPP when compared with OC group and OL group (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in serum alkaline phosphatase activity and c-terminal telopeptide excretion in experimental groups. Although ovariectomy induced the increase in urinary c-terminal telopeptide excretion, 2 or $3\%$ of CPP in the diet decreased urinary c-terminal telopetide excretion significantly. These finding suggest the usefulness of CPP in the prevention of postmenopausal bone loss by decreasing urinary Ca excretion and bone resorption. Over 2 percent of CPP in the diet was effective to prevent postmenopausal bone loss.

As an efficient controlled release system for rhBMP-2, a functional nanoparticle-hydrogel complex, incorporated with matrix metalloproteinase(MMP) sensitive peptide cross-linker, was developed and used as a bone transplant. In vivo bone formation was evaluated by soft x-ray, histology, alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity and mineral contents analysis, based on the rat calvarial critical size defect(8mm in diameter) model. Significantly, effective bone regeneration was achieved with the rhBMP-2 loaded MMP sensitive hyaluronic acid(HA) based hydrogel-Nanoparticles(NP) complex, as compared to only MMP HA, the MMP HA-NP without rhBMP-2, or even with the rhBMP-2. These improvements included the formation pattern of bone and functional marrow, the degree of calcium quantification, and the ALP activity. These results indicate that the MMP sensitive HA with nano-particle complex can be a promising candidate for a new bone defect replacement matrix, and an enhanced rhBMP-2 scaffold.

Teeth and bones are highly mineralized tissues containing inorganic minerals such as calcium phosphate, and a growing number of evidences show that their mineral content is associated with many diseases. Although the quantification of mineral contents by micro-computed tomography(micro- CT) has been used in diagnosis and evaluation for treating bone diseases, its application for teeth diseases has not been well established. In this study, we attempted to estimate a usefulness of a high-resolution micro-CT in analysis of human teeth. The teeth were scanned by using the Skyscan 1172 micro-CT. In order to measure tooth mineral content, beam hardening effect of the machine was corrected with a radiopaque iodine-containing substance, iodoacetamide. Under the maximum resolution of $6.6{\mu}m$, X-ray densities in teeth and hydroxyapatite standards were obtained with Hounsfield unit (HU), and they were then converted to an absolute mineral concentration by a CT Analyzer software. In enamel layer of cusp area, the mean mineral concentration was about $2.14mg/mm^3$ and there was a constant mineral concentration gradient from the enamel surface to the dentinoenamel junction. In the dentin of middle 1/3 of tooth, the mean mineral concentration was approximately $1.27mg/mm^3$ and there was a constant mineral concentration gradient from the outer of root to the pulp side, ranging from 1.3 to $1.06mg/mm^3$. In decay region of dentin, the mineral content was gradually decreased from the intact inner side to the decayed surface. These results suggest that high-resolution micro-CT can be as a useful tool for non-invasive measurement of mineral concentration in teeth.

In this study, cod bone were used as the main ingredient of a stock that can be eaten with Korean dried noodles. The stock was produced with heating for 30, 40, 50, 60, or 70 minutes using high-pressure extraction methods. Moisture content, chromaticity, pH, sugar content, salinity, mineral contents, quantitative analysis, and overall acceptance were studied to determine the optimal heating time. In our result, S1 the showed highest water contents 98.10%, while S5 showed the lowest moisture content (97.47%). There were no significant difference in pH between samples, while salinity and sugar content increased with increases in heating time. In terms of mineral contents, sodium and potassium showed proportional difference with increases in heating time, however, magnesium, calcium, and iron did not change. The results from a quantitative analysis test showed that transparency, fishy smell, delicate flavor, savory flavor, salt taste, and umami taste became stronger with increases in heating time increase. From the above results, the overall taste of the stock increases with increases in high-pressure heating time. Specifically, S4 high-pressure heating scored the highest on appearance, flavor, taste, after-taste, and overall acceptance. Thus, 60 minutes of high-pressure heating time is most desirable when producing stock with cod bones as a main ingredient.

우리나라는 급격한 경제성장과 의료기술의 발달로 고령화 사회가 되면서 골다공증 발병이 증가하고 있다. 또한 서구화된 식생활로 암질환이 증가하였고 항암치료과 방사선 치료 등으로 인해 골다공증이 발생하게 된다. 골다공증은 골밀도의 감소로 인한 것으로 대퇴근위부의 형태학적 구조 변화와도 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있으며, 대퇴 근위부의 형태학적 구조 변화는 고관절 골절의 위험을 나타내는 요인이다. 본 연구는 T-score변화에 따라 정상, 골감소증, 골다공증으로 분류하여 각 군별로 대퇴 근위부의 형태학적 변화를 관찰하고 상관관계를 분석하였다. 조사대상은 부산지역의 D종합병원의 남녀 350명을 대상으로 연령, 성별, T-score변화로 질환을 구분하여 분석하였다. 결과는 연령, 성별에 따라 골다공증의 발병빈도는 유의한 차이를 보였고, T-score변화에 따른 질환 분류와 대퇴근위부 형태학적 특성의 7가지 파라미터로서 Cortical ratio calcar, Cortical ratio shaft, Hip/shaft Angle, Strength index, Section modulus, CSMI, CSA는 유의한 차이를 보였으며 골다공증과 높은 상관관계가 있었다. 그러므로 연구 결과는 T-score변화에 따른 대퇴근위부의 형태학적 변화를 상관관계 분석함으로써 골다공증을 진단하는데 대퇴 근위부의 형태학적 변화가 지표로서 활용가능하리라 사료되며, 향후에 대퇴근위부의 형태학적 파라미터가 골다공증 진단의 정확성을 높이고 예측인자로서 임상활용이 가능하리라 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships among nutrient intakes, BMD, serum copper, zinc and manganese contents in Korean postmenopausal women residing in Seoul and Kyunggi-do. Nutrient intakes analyses and anthropometric measurements were performed for 64 postmenopausal women. Also, fasting blood samples were collected. The BMDs of the lumbar spine (L2-L4) and femoral neck were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Subjects were classified into three groups: osteoporosis (T-score ${\leq}$ -2.5, n = 20), osteopenia (-2.5 < T-score ${\leq}$ -1, n = 24), and normal (T-score) -1, n = 20). The results are summarized as follows; the mean age, height and weight were 62.1 yrs, 153.8 em, and 56.1 kg, respectively, with no significant difference among three groups. On the other hand, the mean BMI $(23.7\;g/m^2)$ of normal group was significantly higher than those of other two groups. The mean energy intake was 1,395.3 kcal (77.5% of Dietary referance intakes for koreans (KDRls)). The average daily intakes of vitamin $B_2$, calcium and zinc did not reach KDRIs. The mean intakes of iron, copper, zinc and manganese were 10.9 mg, 1.6 mg, 7.8 mg and 5.1 mg respectively, with no significant difference among three groups, The mean serum levels of copper, zinc and manganese were 96.4 mg/dl, 91.5 mg/dl and 39.5 ng/dl, respectively with no significant differences among three groups. The BMD of lumbar spine showed a significantly negative correlation intakes of animal protein, fat and iron intakes after adjusting for age, Bill. However, the BMD of lumbar spine was not significantly correlated with animal iron intakes after adjusting for animal protein, and fat intakes, indicating animal food intake is a possible confounding factor. Proper intakes of vitamin $B_2$, vitamin C are required to protect osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. These results suggest that excessive animal food intakes may have adverse effect on bone mineral density. Further studies arc necessary to elucidate the role of serum minerals in BMD.
