Abstract:
AIM: The relationship between muscle force (MF) and bone mass (BM)has become one of the pivotal aspects in research of cause, prevention and treatment of primary osteoporosis. This paper is to probe into the mechanism by which estrogen influences the relationship between MF and BM.METHODS: We searched for the relative papers on the relationship between muscle force and bone mass and the effect of estrogen on relationship between muscle force and bone mass. Combining the literatures with our previous results, we discussed the effects of estrogen on relationship between muscle force and bone mass.RESULTS: Muscle force, which determines bone structure and bone mass,makes bone strength adaptable to work load. Estrogen adjustes adaptability of muscle force and bone mass, mainly by the influence on threshold of bone strain. Estrogen therapy could maintain muscle force, partially by which estrogen exerts the beneficial effects on bone.CONCLUSION: Estrogen could influence the relationship between muscle force and bone mass, and estrogen therapy could have the beneficial effect on muscle force.
