Abstract
Concentration of 13 elements in bone tissue of mice held in tightly spaced cages for 3 wk, which caused an acute stress reaction, was determined by means of neutron activation analysis. Functionally different bone tissues of mice skeletons—the femur, accomplishing both supporting and dynamic functions; the parietal bone, being practically immovable; and the ectopic bone, newly formed under kidney capsule in the place of syngeneic bone marrow implantation—were analyzed. Similar dynamics of the elemental composition of investigated bones was found: the progressive demineralization owing to the loss of Ca, P, Mg, and Fe is accompanied by the compensatory inclusion of Sr in the bone tissues. In the ectopic bone, it was not as high. During evolution under hypokinetic stress, the microelement concentrations (Zn, Cr, Rb, Ru, Br, Co, Sb) change significantly. Results obtained form the evidence for some system character of osteoporosis at limited mobility.
