Metabolic Activities

AbstractMetabolic activities are closely correlated with bone remodeling and long-term anti-resorptive bisphosphonate treatment frequently causes atypical femoral fractures through unclear mechanisms. To explore whether metabolic alterations affect bone remodeling in femurs and lumbar vertebrae and whether anti-osteoporotic bisphosphonates perturb their reconstruction, we studied three mouse strains with different fat and lean body masses (BALB/c, C57BL6, and C3H mice). These mice displayed variable physical activity, food and drink intake, energy expenditure, and respiratory quotients. Following intraperitoneal calcein injection, double calcein labeling of the femoral diaphysis, as well as serum levels of the bone-formation marker procollagen type-I N-terminal propeptide and the bone-resorption marker C-terminal telopeptide of type-I collagen, revealed increased bone turnover in mice in the following order: C3H > BALB/c ≥ C57BL6 mice. In addition, bone reconstitution in femurs was distinct from that in lumbar vertebrae in both healthy control and estrogen-deficient osteoporotic mice with metabolic perturbation, particularly in terms of femoral trabecular and cortical bone remodeling in CH3 mice. Interestingly, subcutaneous administration of bisphosphonate risedronate to C3H mice with normal femoral bone density led to enlarged femoral cortical bones with a low bone mineral density, resulting in bone fragility; however, this phenomenon was not observed in mice with ovariectomy-induced femoral cortical bone loss. Together, these results suggest that diverse metabolic activities support various forms of bone remodeling and that femur remodeling differs from lumbar vertebra remodeling. Moreover, our findings imply that the adverse effect of bisphosphonate agents on femoral cortical bone remodeling should be considered when prescribing them to osteoporotic patients.

C3h Mice

Our goal is to evaluate skeletal anabolic response to mechanical loading in different age groups of C57B1/6J (B6) and C3H/HeJ (C3H) mice with variable loads using bone size, bone mineral density (BMD), and gene expression changes as end points. Loads of 6–9 N were applied at 2 Hz for 36 cycles for 12 days on the tibia of 10-wk-old female B6 and C3H mice. Effects of a 9-N load on 10-, 16-, and 36-wk-old C3H mice were also studied. Changes in bone parameters were measured using peripheral quantitative computed tomography, and gene expression was determined by real-time PCR. Total volumetric BMD was increased by 5 and 15%, respectively, with 8- and 9-N loads in the B6, but not the C3H, mice. Increases of 20 and 12% in periosteal circumference were reflected by dramatic 44 and 26% increases in total area in B6 and C3H mice, respectively. The bone response to bending showed no difference in the three age groups of B6 and C3H mice. At 2 days, mechanical loading resulted in significant downregulation in expression of bone resorption (BR), but not bone formation (BF) marker genes. At 4 and 8 days of loading, expression of BF marker genes (type I collagen, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and bone sialoprotein) was increased two- to threefold and expression of BR marker genes (matrix metalloproteinase-9 and thrombin receptor-activating peptide) was decreased two- to fivefold. Although expression of BF marker genes was upregulated four- to eightfold at 12 days of training, expression of BR marker genes was upregulated seven- to ninefold. Four-point bending caused significantly greater changes in expression of BF and BR marker genes in bones of the B6 than the C3H mice. We conclude that mechanical loading-induced molecular pathways are activated to a greater extent in the B6 than in the C3H mice, resulting in a higher anabolic response in the B6 mice.

Objective There is scant research examining the prevalence of thinness in early childhood, despite its potential negative consequences for health and development across the life course. The objective of this study was to assess bone status through measurement of bone mineral density and biochemical bone turnover markers, with special attention paid to carboxylated (c-OC) as well as undercarboxylated (uc-OC) forms of osteocalcin, in the groups of thin and normal-weight children. Design The study included 80 healthy prepubertal children (median age 7.0 years), who were divided (according to Cole’s international cutoffs) into 2 subgroups: thin children ( n = 40, body mass index [BMI] = 13.5 kg/m2) and normal-weight children ( n = 40, BMI = 16.1 kg/m2). Bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) were assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry method. Serum concentrations of C-terminal telopeptide of collagen type I (CTX), total osteocalcin (OC), and c-OC, and uc-OC forms of osteocalcin were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Results In thin children, we observed higher levels of bone resorption marker CTX compared with normal-weight peers. Total osteocalcin concentrations were comparable in both groups of children; however, in thin children we observed higher median values of uc-OC (34.40 vs. 29.30 ng/mL, P < 0.05) and similar c-OC levels (25.65 vs. 28.80 ng/mL). The ratio of c-OC to uc-OC was significantly lower ( P < 0.05) in thin than in normal-weight children. Total BMD and BMC were significantly decreased ( P < 0.0001) in thin children compared with normal-weight peers (0.724 ± 0.092 vs. 0.815 ± 0.060 g/cm2 and 602.7 ± 159.2 vs. 818.2 ± 220.1 g, respectively). Conclusion Increased concentrations of CTX and uc-OC might lead to disturbances in bone turnover and a decrease in bone mineral density in thin children.

In the present study, changes of morphologies and mechanical characteristics in the lumbar vertebrae of the ovariectomised (OVX) rats were investigated and analyzed by Finite Element (FE) and Rapid-Prototyped (RP) models based on micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). In previous researches, there were many studies about morphology such as bone mineral density and trabecular microstructure. However, detecting and tracking local changes were few in the trabecular and cortical bone of the lumbar vertebrae for the OVX rats. Experimental and simulated studies were used to investigate mechanical characteristics of the lumbar vertebral bones for the OVX rats. Three dimensional (3D) geometries of the models (RP and FE models), generated from in-vivo micro-CT scan data, were obtained from the 4th lumbar of the OVX rats. Three specimens (whole vertebral, trabecular and cortical bone models) were generated and analyzed in the simulated compression tests. For further verification, the experimental compression test for RP models ‘instead of real bone specimens’ was performed to indirectly validate the results of the simulated compression test for the FE models. The results were similar to those of the compression test simulated by micro-FE analysis. The present study showed the efficiency of the combined method (FE and RP techniques based on in-vivo micro-CT) as a nondestructive evaluation.

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease accompanied by decreasing bone mass density and ultimately leads toosteoporosis. The cause of decreased bone mass density is still unknown, but the inflammation has been suspected as an important factor.The correlation between the severity of inflammation with the decrease in bone mass density in Indonesian RA patients has not been muchstudied. The purpose of this study was to know the assessment in the correlation between levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), Tumour NecrosisFactor-α (TNFα) and bone mineral density (BMD) with bone resorption marker CTx-1 β-Cross Laps in premenopausal RA patients.Thisobservational study using cross sectional design, was carried out in the Rheumatology Clinic and Central Laboratory of RSSA, Malang fromAugust 2009 until October 2010. All 47 RA patients were diagnosed according to revised of the 1997 American College of Rheumatology(ACR). Measurement of CRP levels uses turbidimetry method, TNF-α and CTX-1 β-Cross Laps levels using ELISA methods and the measurementof BMD using DEXA. The results of this study showed mean levels of CRP were 4.288±1.775 g/L, TNF-α were 322.077±275.248 pg/mLand CTX-1 β-Cross Laps were 0.588±0.139 ng mL. The correlation of CRP and TNF-α levels with CTX-1 β-Cross Laps level were r=0.5832,p=0.453 and r=0.615, p=0.041. Correlation of CTX-1 β-Cross Laps level and Femoral Neck BMD was r=–0.469, p=0.143 and r=0.248,p=0.799 for L average BMD. There was no correlation between CRP level and BMD results with bone resorption marker CTX-1 β-Cross Laps,but there is a significant correlation between high levels of TNFα with CTX-1 β-Cross Laps. It seems that TNF-α appears to be contributed tothe decrease of bone mass density in RA patients.

Background: The present study examined the effect of intermittent fasting (IF) on bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) and the markers of bone remodeling in a glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO) rat model.Methods: Forty male rats were allocated to 4 groups (N=10 per group): control group of normal rats; control+IF group (normal rats subjected to IF for 16-18 hr daily for 90 days); dexamethasone (DEX) group: (DEX [0.5 mg i.p.] for 90 days); and DEX+IF group (DEX and IF for 90 days). By the end of the experiment, BMD and BMC in the right tibia were measured. Serum levels of the following were measured: glucose; insulin; triglycerides (TGs); total cholesterol; parathyroid hormone (PTH); osteoprotegerin (OPG); receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (RANK); bone-resorbing cytokines, including bone deoxypyridinoline (DPD), N-terminal telopeptide of collagen type I (NTX-1), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAP-5b); and bone-forming cytokines, including alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OC).Results: DEX administration for 90 days resulted in significantly increased serum levels of glucose, insulin, TGs, cholesterol, PTH, OPG, DPD, NTX-1, and TRAP-5b and significantly decreased BMD, BMC, and serum levels of RANK, OC, and ALP (all P<0.05). IF for 90 days significantly improved all these parameters (all P<0.05).Conclusions: IF corrected GIO in rats by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis and PTH secretion and stimulating osteoblast activity.
