BMD, bone mineral density: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
The Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Test is a diagnostic tool used to measure the density and strength of bones. A bone mineral density (BMD) test measures calcium and other minerals in bone. Cancer treatments, including chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and radiation, can negatively impact bone health and lead to decreased BMD, increasing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
Some studies suggest that low BMD may be associated with poorer survival outcomes in certain cancer types, although the relationship can be complex and influenced by various factors.

1818- VitK2,    New insights on vitamin K biology with relevance to cancer
- Review, Var, NA
TumCG↓, A few small randomized trials support the concept that vitamin K supplementation can retard cancer development and/or progression
ChemoSen↑, phase 2 randomized placebo-controlled trial in HCC patients demonstrated that MK4 supplementation (45 mg/day orally) enhanced the efficacy of the multi-kinase inhibitor sorafenib
toxicity∅, long term vitamin K supplementation is safe and may offer survival benefit in HCC patients.
OS↑,
BMD↑, Primary Outcomes: Bone density
eff↑, In studies where both forms of the vitamin have been compared, MKs generally exerted more potent anticancer effects than PK.
MMP↓, direct effects on mitochondrial membrane depolarization and reactive oxygen species (ROS)
ROS↑,
eff↓, ROS neutralization by antioxidants (N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) and alpha-tocopherol) or BAK knockdown prevented MK4 mediated mitochondrial disruption and apoptosis
ERK↑, activates ERK, JNK/p38 MAPK
JNK↑,
p38↑,
Cyt‑c↑, cytochrome c release
Casp↑, caspase activation
ATP↓, reducing ATP production and increasing lactate production
lactateProd↑,

TumCG↓, mouse xenograft studies, treatment with MK4 administered in water at a calculated dose of 20 mg/kg/d significantly reduced growth of established HCCs
BioAv↑, Phylloquinone (K1) is the major dietary form, but it is converted into menaquinone (K2) in tissues.
cardioP↑, optimal vitamin K status is common in adults and may contribute to chronic diseases such as osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
Risk↓, Observational studies suggest that low vitamin K intake increases cancer risk(more lowers risk)

1815- VitK3,  VitK2,    Vitamin K
- Review, Nor, NA
*Dose↝, 19+ years - 120 mcg (male) 90 mcg(female)
BMD↑, Some, but not all, studies also link higher vitamin K intakes with higher bone mineral density and/or lower hip fracture incidence

1761- WBV,    Low Intensity Vibration Mitigates Tumor Progression and Protect Bone Quantity and Quality in a Murine Model of Myeloma
- in-vivo, Melanoma, NA
Dose∅, (15min/d; 0.3g @ 90Hz)
BMD↑, 27% improved retention of bone in L5 of LIV-treated mice
TumCI↓, Low intensity vibration, serving as a surrogate for exercise, slowed the degradation of the bone and marrow phenotype and suppressed the invasion of the tumor.

1754- WBV,    Vibration Therapy for Cancer-Related Bone Diseases
- Review, Var, NA
*BMD↑, Studies have shown that WBV improves bone mineral density (BMD) and bone volume in patients and mice with cancer.
*toxicity∅, WBV effects on cancer patients, no adverse effects were reported for children, adolescents [51,56], adults, or the elderly
other↓, these studies indicate that vibration can suppress osteoclastogenesis through both cancer cell and osteocyte signaling.
Dose↝, Notably, low-magnitude (LM, ≤1 g) high-frequency (HF, ≥30 Hz) vibration was found to be optimal for patients with compromised bone quality [84] but not for those with healthy bones [111].
Dose↑, the intensity and duration of WBV may need to be much higher and longer to overcome the significant bone loss induced by aromatase inhibitors.
eff↑, demonstrated that a 7-day insertion, in which vibration (0.25 g, 35 Hz, 15 min/day) for 7 days was followed by a 7-day rest, significantly increased the rate of bone formation and improved micromechanical properties in rats
eff↑, However, in a recent rat study, three bouts of daily vibration (0.25 g, 35 Hz, 5 min/bout) separated by 4 h between each bout more effectively promoted fracture healing than the aforementioned 7-day rest insertion
eff↑, The benefits of inserting rest periods also can be observed at the cellular level. Twice-daily vibration (0.3 g, 90 Hz, 20 min/bout) separated by 3 h of rest decreased breast cancer invasion more than once-daily vibration treatment

1751- WBV,    Yoda1 Enhanced Low-Magnitude High-Frequency Vibration on Osteocytes in Regulation of MDA-MB-231 Breast Cancer Cell Migration
- in-vitro, BC, MDA-MB-231 - in-vitro, AML, RAW264.7
BMD↑, Low-magnitude (≤1 g) high-frequency (≥30 Hz) (LMHF) vibration has been shown to enhance bone mineral density
YAP/TEAD↑, Combined treatment on osteocytes showed beneficial effects, including increasing the nuclear translocation of Yes-associated protein (YAP) in osteocytes
TumCG↓, The ability of carefully controlled high-magnitude mechanical loads to suppress breast cancer growth and maintain bone integrity has been shown using various models in vivo
Strength↑, Studies have shown the anabolic benefits of LMHF vibration (LMHFV) on the musculoskeletal system, including increased bone density [7], reduced marrow fat [8], and improved muscle and glucose metabolism
TumCI↓, Application of LMHF vibration on MDA-MB-231 cells does not affect their migration [25], cell viability, and apoptosis but suppresses their invasion and upregulates FAS, a membrane death receptor
Fas↑,
Ca+2↑, concentration of intracellular calcium in MLO-Y4 was shown to significantly increase after 90 Hz of vibration for 1 h
