Cross-scale Modeling of Functional Grading in Musculoskeletal Tissues
… with gradual changes in composition, structure, and mechanical properties. For example, the attachment between tendon to bone features a unique interfacial region that is critical for musculoskeletal physiological function. The proposed dissertation aims to identify, through mathematical modeling …

Molecular Mechanism of the Stimulation of Alkaline Phosphatase Activity in Human Bone Cells by 1,25(OH)2 D3
… conditions in a dose-dependent, time-dependent, and cell density-dependent manner. Cytochemical analysis of the stimulation of ALP activity by 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> showed that 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> increased the number of TE85 cells that expressed detectable ALP activity, …

Melatonin-micronutrients Osteopenia Treatment Study (MOTS): A translational study assessing the effects of melatonin, strontium citrate, vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 on bone density, bone turnover markers and health-related quality of life in postmenopausal osteopenic women following a one-year double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial and on osteoblast-osteoclast co-cultures
… to assess if a novel combination of melatonin and three other natural bone-aiding micronutrients: strontium citrate, vitamins D<sub>3</sub> and K<sub>2</sub> (MSDK) could improve bone health by modulating the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts in favor of balanced bone remodeling and by …
