Type 2 diabetes and bone fractures

Abstract: Purpose of review To discuss current literature and hypotheses pertaining to the pathophysiology of increased bone fragility and fracture in men and women with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recent findings Despite high bone mineral density, studies have shown that men and women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at increased risk for fracture. Complications of T2DM including retinopathy and autonomic dysfunction may contribute to bone fracture by increasing fall risk. Nephropathy may lead to renal osteodys… Show more

“…Many low-grade inflammatory conditions are associated with low bone density, and inhibition of inflammation may protect against inflammation-induced bone loss [1][2][3][4]. Resveratrol (RSV) is a natural polyphenolic compound (3,5,4 0 -trihydroxy-trans-stilbene) present in, for example, nuts and the skin of grapes, where it protects the plants against pathogens and other external stressors of the plant [5].…”

“…Both in animals and humans, increased BAT activity is associated with improved glucose metabolism, and protection against type 2 diabetes, a disease state linked with an increased risk of fractures. 56,57 It is therefore likely that an improved metabolic status, mediated by BAT, would be positive on bone metabolism and reduce the risk of fractures. Hence, as a bonus, BAT-inducing therapies aiming at expanding or activating BAT to treat metabolic disease might also turn out to improve skeletal status.…”

“…In most patients with T2D, aBMD is either normal or high; yet skeletal fragility, particularly in the appendicular skeleton, is a characteristic feature. (8,16) Newer techniques for skeletal microarchitecture have allowed investigators to identify several unique aspects of the appendicular and axial skeleton from T2D patients. These include greater cortical porosity, smaller cortical area, decreased bone material strength measured by microindentation, and high bone marrow adiposity.…”
