The decrease in silicon concentration of the connective tissues with age in rats is a marker of connective tissue turnover.
Silicon may be important for bone and connective tissue health. Higher concentrations of silicon are suggested to be associated with bone and the connective tissues, compared with the non-connective soft tissues. Moreover, in...
High-aluminum-affinity silica is a nanoparticle that seeds secondary aluminosilicate formation.
Despite the importance and abundance of aluminosilicates throughout our natural surroundings, their formation at neutral pH is, surprisingly, a matter of considerable debate. From our experiments in dilute aluminum and silica...
Silicon balance in human volunteers; a pilot study to establish the variance in silicon excretion versus intake.
BACKGROUND: Accumulating evidence suggests a role for silicon in optimal connective tissue health. Further proof of its importance/essentiality may be provided by studies involving imposed depletion followed by 29Si challenge to...
Silica nanoparticles as sources of silicic acid favoring wound healing in vitro.
There is good evidence that certain silicon-containing materials promote would healing and their common feature is the delivery of orthosilicic acid (Si(OH)4) either directly or following metabolism. In this respect, amorphous...
Urinary Excretion of Silicon in Men, Non-pregnant Women, and Pregnant Women
Abstract: Silicon is a trace element found mainly in plant-based food and proposed to be beneficial for bone health. Urinary excretion of Si has been shown to be a surrogate measure of its uptake in the gastrointestinal tract....

The silicon supplement 'Monomethylsilanetriol' is safe and increases the body pool of silicon in healthy Pre-menopausal women.
BACKGROUND: Monomethylsilanetriol (MMST) has been used for decades as an oral silicon supplement for bone and connective tissue health, although there are no formal data on its in vivo utilisation or safety following sustained...
Soluble silica stimulates osteogenic differentiation and gap junction communication in human dental follicle cells
Abstract: Several studies have indicated that dietary silicon (Si) is beneficial for bone homeostasis and skeletal health. Furthermore, Si-containing bioactive glass biomaterials have positive effects on bone regeneration when...
Soluble silica stimulates osteogenic differentiation and gap junction communication in human dental follicle cells.
Several studies have indicated that dietary silicon (Si) is beneficial for bone homeostasis and skeletal health. Furthermore, Si-containing bioactive glass biomaterials have positive effects on bone regeneration when used for...
Bone mineral health is sensitively related to environmental cadmium exposure- experimental and human data.
Exposure to cadmium (Cd) is recognised as one of the risk factors for osteoporosis, although critical exposure levels and exact mechanisms are still unknown. Here, we first confirmed that in male Wistar rats challenged orally...
Unexplored nutritive potential of tomato to combat global malnutrition
Tomato, a widely consumed vegetable crop, offers a real potential to combat human nutritional deficiencies. Tomatoes are rich in micronutrients and other bioactive compounds (including vitamins, carotenoids, and minerals) that...
