It is important to have knowledge on the bone structure of rabbits, as this is a widely used species in biomedical research. A study was performed to evaluate the association between sex and the compact bone morphology of the femoral diaphysis in juvenile rabbits.Methods:Seventeen clinically healthy 23 month-old rabbits (9 females, 8 males) were included in the study. The rabbits were euthanized and the right femur was sampled for analysis. 7080 microns thick bone sections of the femoral diaphysis were prepared using standard histological equipment. The qualitative histological characteristics were determined according to internationally accepted classification systems while the quantitative parameters were assessed using the software Scion Image. Areas, perimeters, minimum and maximum diameters of primary osteons' vascular canals, Haversian canals and secondary osteons were measured. Additionally, blood plasma concentrations of progesterone, corticosterone, IGF-I, testosterone and estradiol were analyzed.Results: Qualitative histological characteristics were similar for both sexes. However, variations of certain quantitative histological characteristics were identified. Measured parameters of the primary osteons' vascular canals were higher in males than for females. On the other hand, females had significant higher values of secondary osteons parameters. Differences in Haversian canals parameters were only significant for minimum diameter. Conclusion: The study demonstrated that quantitative histological characteristics of compact bone tissue of the femoral diaphysis in juvenile rabbits were sex dependent. The variations may be associated with different growth and modeling of the femur through influence by sex-specific steroids, mechanical loads, genetic factors and a multitude of other sources. The results can be applied in experimental studies focusing on comparison of the skeletal biology of the sexes."],["dc.identifier.fs","492195"],["dc.identifier.ppn","57562440X"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/4339"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/61084"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","1751-0147"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Fakultät für Biologie und Psychologie"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.subject.ddc","590"],["dc.title","Sex-related variation in compact bone microstructure of the femoral diaphysis in juvenile rabbits"],["dc.title.alternative","Research"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Nickel, however, may have toxic effects on living organisms and is often considered as a contaminant. This study reports the effect of peroral administrated Ni or a combination of Ni and Zn on femoral bone structure in rabbits. Methods: One month-old female rabbits were divided into three groups of five animals each. Group 1 rabbits were fed a granular feed mixture with addition of 35 g NiCl(2) per 100 kg of mixture for 90 days. In group 2, animals were fed a mixture containing 35 g NiCl(2) and 30 g ZnCl(2) per 100 kg of mixture. Group 3 without administration of additional Ni or Zn served as control. After the 90-day experimental period, femoral length, femoral weight and histological structure of the femur were analyzed and compared. Results: The results did not indicate a statistically significant difference in either femoral length or weight between the two experimental groups and the control group. Also, differences in qualitative histological characteristics of the femora among rabbits from the three groups were absent, except for a fewer number of secondary osteons found in the animals of groups 1 and 2. However, values for vascular canal parameters of primary osteons were significantly lower in group 1 than in the control one. Peroral administration of a combination of Ni and Zn ( group 2) led to a significant decreased size of the secondary osteons. Conclusions: The study indicates that dietary supplementation of Ni (35 g NiCl(2) per 100 kg of feed mixture) and Ni-Zn combination (35 g NiCl(2) and 30 g ZnCl(2) per 100 kg of the mixture) affects the microstructure of compact bone tissue in young rabbits."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Ministry of Education, Slovakia [KEGA 3/7338/09]"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1186/1751-0147-51-52"],["dc.identifier.isi","000273287900001"],["dc.identifier.pmid","20003522"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/5789"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/55687"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Biomed Central Ltd"],["dc.relation.issn","0044-605X"],["dc.rights","CC BY 2.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0"],["dc.title","Effects of dietary supplementation of nickel and nickel-zinc on femoral bone structure in rabbits"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
