This review deals with changes in the morphology and composition of the skeleton of ruminants caused by trace element deficiencies, specifically with respect to zinc, copper and manganese. When ruminants are fed a zinc-deficient diet, bone abnormalities occur. Zinc is also reported to be of value in the prevention or cure of footrot in cattle and sheep. Depletion of zinc reserves appears to lead to alterations in bone mineralization and reduction of bone zinc concentration. The bones of copper-deficient ruminants are fragile and easily broken. The most prominent symptom of this deficiency is a very marked stiffness of the legs. Copper-deficient animals show symptoms of rickets with beading of the ribs and enlargement of the ends of the long bones. Histologically, the affected bones show widening of the growth plate and the overall appearance of the lesion is that of osteoporosis. Crosslinking between collagen precursors is impaired in copper deficiency, which affects the structural integrity of collagen. There is no evidence of any correlation between the concentration of copper in bone and the severity of malformation. A relationship between low manganese intake by gestating ruminants and increased incidence of deformed calves or lambs has been demonstrated. The deformities observed included enlarged joints and twisted forelimbs. Histological examinations of the affected bones revealed retarded growth. Since manganese plays an active role in bone matrix formation, synthesis of mucopolysaccharide is reduced in the deficient bones. The synthesis of chondroitin sulfate, which is involved in maintaining the rigidity of connective tissue, is also affected during manganese deficiency, resulting in skeletal abnormalities.

Background: Dried yogurt enriched by Difructose Anhydride III when used as a functional food has been observed to increase calcium absorption, making it useful in osteoporosis prevention. The objective of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of Difructose Anhydride III in increasing the absorption of calcium in female rat models, strain Sprague Dawley, in the pre-menopausal age during which they’re calcium deficient.Methods: The effectiveness test of Difructose Anhydride III to increase absorption of calcium in pre-menopausal Sprague Dawley rats was performed in calcium-deficient conditions. A completely randomized experimental design was used with 4 treatments for 6 weeks and 4 replications: normal rats fed with purified diet (C), calcium-deficient rats fed with calcium-deficient diet (CD), calcium-deficient rats fed with calcium-deficient diet and DFA III (dahlia tubers) fortified in dry yogurt (CD+DFA III dahlia), and calcium-deficient rats fed with a calcium-deficient diet and DFA III (chicory roots) fortified in dry yogurt (CD+DFA III chicory). The parameters measured were serum calcium concentration, femur bone calcium concentration, femur bone matrix condition, and femur bone strength.Results: DFA III (dahlia tubers and chicory roots) fortified in dry yogurt contained 0.334% and 0.322% of calcium concentration. The provision of a calcium-deficient diet for 12 weeks was shown to reduce the serum calcium concentration of the deficient calcium rat to 7.72±1.08 mg dL-1 and the control rat to 11.60±0.85 mg dL-1. CD+DFA III chicory treatments also showed a high calcium concentration in the femur bone (34.94±3.21%), a relatively higher bone strength (9.34±3.61 kg cm-2), and a denser femur bone matrix condition than the control. The femur bone calcium level of rats treated with CD+DFA III dahlia and chicory tubers was 28.95±1.95% and 34.94±3.21%, respectively. These results were significantly different than the CD treatment (17.49±4.38%).Conclusion: The evidence from this study suggests that sufficient calcium intake could provide high calcium deposits in the bones. Diets containing 3.60% w/w DFA III fortified in dry yogurt have been shown to enhance calcium absorption in calcium-deficient rats. Additionally, the effectiveness of dried yogurt enriched by DFA III from chicory tubers was higher than that of the dried yogurt enriched by DFA III from dahlia tubers.Preclinical Trial Registration: Animal Ethics Committee at IPB University No. 12-2013Keywords: Bone femur; calcium deficiency; effectivity of Difructose Anhydride III

Most invasive dental procedures involving removal of teeth or bone are followed by uneventful healing. However, dentists should be aware that generalized abnormalities of bone, such as osteoporosis and Paget’s dis­ease of bone, may complicate these procedures and, rarely, can lead to ongoing clinical problems. The effects of radiotherapy to the jaws and bisphosphonate treatment are well-described causes of osteonecrosis and delayed healing. Diagnosis of bone disorders often depends on integrating the results of clinical, imaging, pathological, genetic, and biochemical investigations. Although the bony skeleton is often thought of as forming just a rigid framework, it should be remembered that bone is a living, responsive tissue that plays an important role in metabolism. During development, some bones develop from a cartilaginous template and others, such as most of the craniofacial bones, form in fibrous membranes. Bone matrix is laid down by osteoblasts that are derived from the extensive meshwork of bone-lining cells that cover the bone surfaces. The bone matrix contains osteocytes that are responsive to mechanical stresses. Bone matrix is removed by osteoclasts that move over the bone sur­face, resulting in scalloped pits termed Howship’s lacunae. Bone mat­rix can be woven or lamellar in pattern. Pathologists often examine sections of bony lesions in polarized light to determine whether the pattern of the collagenous matrix is woven or lamellar, because it can be pivotal for diagnosis. It is also important for clinicians to be aware that, in order to produce a histological section of bone, the tissue must first be fixed and then demineralized to soften the matrix. When a bone biopsy is performed, the patient should be made aware that additional time will be needed to process the biopsy. Following extraction of a tooth, the socket rapidly fills with blood, which then clots. Granulation tissue, which consists of proliferating endothelial cells and fibroblasts derived from remnants of the periodontal ligament and surrounding alveolar bone, grows into the clot and organization commences. Osteoclasts begin to remodel the crestal bone and remove any small spicules of bone detached during the extraction.
