Abstract

In view of the opposite effects of gut and brain serotonin in bone, the key role of Wnt β/catenin pathway in osteoblastic proliferation and the controversial bony effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors antidepressants, the present study investigated the effects of escitalopram alone and in combination with carbidopa (to block gut-derived serotonin) on markers of bone turnover and Wnt signaling and micro-CT in male Wistar rats. Escitalopram (2.0 mg/kg, p.o.) and carbidopa (10 mg/kg, p.o.) were administered daily for 40 days following which indicators of reduced (dickkopf-1, sclerostin), and increased (alkaline phosphatase) bone formation and bone resorption markers (receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b) were determined. Our results indicated that escitalopram adversely affected bone as indicated by reduced bone formation and enhanced bone resorption. Further, the effects of escitalopram on bone formation were possibly mediated through gut serotonin while the mechanisms responsible for effects on resorption seem unrelated to gut serotonin. The promising effects of carbidopa on bone formation, as observed in our study, open up exciting possibilities for this drug requiring further investigations.

Notfall-TEP der Hüfte ist auch bei 90-Jährigen machbar

26.04.2024 Hüft-TEP Nachrichten

Ob bei einer Notfalloperation nach Schenkelhalsfraktur eine Hemiarthroplastik oder eine totale Endoprothese (TEP) eingebaut wird, sollte nicht allein vom Alter der Patientinnen und Patienten abhängen. Auch über 90-Jährige können von der TEP profitieren.

Niedriger diastolischer Blutdruck erhöht Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Komplikationen

25.04.2024 Hypotonie Nachrichten

Wenn unter einer medikamentösen Hochdrucktherapie der diastolische Blutdruck in den Keller geht, steigt das Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Ereignisse: Darauf deutet eine Sekundäranalyse der SPRINT-Studie hin.

Bei schweren Reaktionen auf Insektenstiche empfiehlt sich eine spezifische Immuntherapie

Insektenstiche sind bei Erwachsenen die häufigsten Auslöser einer Anaphylaxie. Einen wirksamen Schutz vor schweren anaphylaktischen Reaktionen bietet die allergenspezifische Immuntherapie. Jedoch kommt sie noch viel zu selten zum Einsatz.

Therapiestart mit Blutdrucksenkern erhöht Frakturrisiko

25.04.2024 Hypertonie Nachrichten

Beginnen ältere Männer im Pflegeheim eine Antihypertensiva-Therapie, dann ist die Frakturrate in den folgenden 30 Tagen mehr als verdoppelt. Besonders häufig stürzen Demenzkranke und Männer, die erstmals Blutdrucksenker nehmen. Dafür spricht eine Analyse unter US-Veteranen.
