Abstract
Studies have suggested a link between hypercholesterolemia and osteoporosis, but direct evidence on the impact of cholesterol homeostasis on bone health is limited. In a four-month feeding study with mice subjected to isocaloric high-fat and high-cholesterol diets, micro-computed tomography analysis revealed a significant decrease in bone mineral density, ranging from 60 to 90 mg/mL across different strains. Mechanical testing of femurs demonstrated bone loss, resulting in a reduction in failure load (up to 10%) and energy to failure. The study also highlighted hypercholesterolemia's role in promoting osteoclastogenesis. These findings underscore the connection between hypercholesterolemia and osteoporosis, providing insights for potential intervention strategies
