Abstract
Bone mass of the femur was lower in TSOD mice than in TSNO mice because hyperinsulinemia during pre-diabetic and established diabetic conditions enhanced bone resorption due to high bone turnover. In addition, our data suggest that the bone mass of the femur was significantly reduced as a result of chronic hyperglycemia during established diabetic conditions in TSOD mice. We suggest that bone strength in the femur deteriorated due to the reduction of bone mass and because the femoral mid-diaphysis was more slender in TSOD mice.
