MSM enhances bone cell differentiation
Methylsulfonylmethane enhances BMP‑2‑induced osteoblast differentiation in mesenchymal stem cells.
Combination treatment complicates conclusions
We investigated how methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) interacts with bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) to potentially enhance the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into osteoblasts, which are crucial for bone health. The study revealed that both MSM and BMP-2, when combined, lead to increased levels of certain proteins that aid in this process.

Observing changes in cell structure and mineral deposits helped us see the effectiveness of these treatments. The researchers noted that using MSM alongside BMP-2 significantly boosted the differentiation of MSCs into osteoblasts compared to using either treatment on its own.

Moreover, the findings indicated that the combination treatment elevated the expression of genes related to osteoblast differentiation. This suggests that MSM could play a beneficial role in promoting bone formation when used with BMP-2. However, it is essential to consider that the study's focus on the combination makes it challenging to assess MSM's isolated impact on osteoporosis directly.

Manageable pain
Recommended by a trusted doctor, I take this for several conditions, including osteoporosis. I avoided opioids due to addiction and found that after taking this for almost three weeks, my pain has become more manageable, and I feel more alert.
