Abstract

The number of elderly people is constantly increasing all over the world. They are most often the patients who need orthopedic surgeries like arthroplasty, osteosynthesis and others. It is known
that the process of bone regeneration depends on the patient’s age. However, certain characteristics of bone regeneration process depend on the age remain unclear, which is important for developing
the best strategies for treatment of elderly patients. Objective. Тo identify age-related features of bone regeneration and to establish possible ways of influencing them in order to optimize the bone
regeneration in elderly patients. Methods. Literature search was performed in the PubMed database. Inclusion criteria were original experimental and clinical studies in English. The search depth is accepted for 20 years. Results. It has been experimentally and clinically shown that bone tissue regeneration slows down with age, which is more pronounced in women. According to scientific information, this involves two signaling pathways — Notch and Wnt/β-Catenin, the activity of which is suppressed with age. However, the regulation of regeneration is a cascade of signaling pathways
and macromolecules. The expression of growth factors after fracture changes at older age compared to a younger one. In particular,
a decrease in the expression of TGFβ-1 was clinically revealed. In addition, in older patients after fracture, an increase in macrophage colony-stimulating factor and VEGF was recorded. It has been experimentally established that a combination of a slowdown
in bone tissue regeneration with a decrease in the content of Indian Hedgehog, Sonic Hedgehog, BMP-2, 4, -7 proteins and MMP-9 in bone callus has been established. Among the ways to overcome the delayed bone regeneration in elderly patients can be the use of modern technologies of cell and gene therapy, inhibitors of macrophages, biologically active factors at certain stages of bone regeneration. For cell therapy, it is important to take into account the age of the cell donor because of the high probability of functional disorders in cells from older donors.

The authors retain the right of authorship of their manuscript and pass the journal the right of the first publication of this article, which automatically become available from the date of publication under the terms of Creative Commons Attribution License, which allows others to freely distribute the published manuscript with mandatory linking to authors of the original research and the first publication of this one in this journal.

Authors have the right to enter into a separate supplemental agreement on the additional non-exclusive distribution of manuscript in the form in which it was published by the journal (i.e. to put work in electronic storage of an institution or publish as a part of the book) while maintaining the reference to the first publication of the manuscript in this journal.

The editorial policy of the journal allows authors and encourages manuscript accommodation online (i.e. in storage of an institution or on the personal websites) as before submission of the manuscript to the editorial office, and during its editorial processing because it contributes to productive scientific discussion and positively affects the efficiency and dynamics of the published manuscript citation (see The Effect of Open Access).
