Is serum parathyroid hormone , but not menopausal status , associated with the expression of osteoprotegerin and RANKL mRNA in human bone samples?
We failed to observe the expected changes in the expression of OPG and RANKL in human bone samples at menopause. High in vivo levels of circulating PTH are accompanied by low levels of expression of the two transcripts in human bone tissue.
Maternal magnesium sulfate reduces blood pressure and increases neonatal size compared to L-NAME without magnesium. These findings support a beneficial effect of magnesium in preeclampsia.
