#Magnesium #whitlockite formation in the alveolar #bone, with #bisphosphonate exposure and #osteolytic #skeletal #metastasis. Scanning electron microscopy, Micro-Raman spectroscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy revealed Mg-rich, rhomboidal nodules (~200 nm to ~2.4 µm) within the lacuno-canalicular space. Mg-whitlockite formation within #osteocyte lacunae is multifactorial in #nature and suggests altered bone #biomineralization.
