Dual nuclear magnetic resonance for probing intrinsic bone structure and a potential gut–bone axis in ovariectomized rats

Abstract

Currently, the existence of a gut-bone axis receives massive attention, and while sound premises and indirect proofs exist for the gut-bone axis concept, few studies have provided actual data linking the gut and bone physically. This study aimed to exploit the versatile nature of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to link NMR relaxometry data on bone mineralization with NMR spec-
