Abstract
Chemically cross-linked cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) aerogels possess many properties beneficial for bone tissue scaffolding applications. CNCs were extracted using sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, to produce CNCs with sulfate and phosphate half-ester surface groups, respectively. Hydrazone cross-linked aerogels fabricated from the two types of CNCs were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray micro-computed tomography, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, nitrogen sorption isotherms, and compression testing. CNC aerogels were evaluatedin vitrowith osteoblast-like Saos-2 cells and showed an increase in cell metabolism up to 7 days while alkaline phosphatase assays revealed that cells maintained their phenotype. All aerogels demonstrated hydroxyapatite growth over 14 days while submerged in simulated body fluid solution with a 0.1 M CaCl2 pre-treatment. Sulfated CNC aerogels slightly outperformed phosphated CNC aerogels in terms of compressive strength and long-term stability in liquid environments, and were implanted into the calvarian bone of adult male Long Evans rats. Compared to controls at 3 and 12 week time points, sulfated CNC aerogels showed increased bone volume fraction of 33% and 50%, respectively, compared to controls, and evidence of osteoconductivity. These results demonstrate that cross-linked CNC aerogels are flexible, porous and effectively facilitate bone growth after they are implanted in bone defects. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Due to the potential complications associated with autografts, there is a need for synthetic bone tissue scaffolds. Here, we report a new naturally-based aerogel material for bone regeneration made solely from chemically cross-linked cellulose nanocrystals (CNC). These highly porous CNC aerogels were shown to promote the proliferation of bone-like cells and support the growth of hydroxyapatite on their surface in vitro. The first in vivo study on these materials was conducted in rats and showed their osteconductive properties and an increase in bone volume up to 50% compared to sham sites. This study demonstrates the potential of using functionalized cellulose nanocrystals as the basis for aerogel scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bone tissue undergoes constant remodeling and healing when fracture happens, in order to ensure its structural integrity. In order to better understand open biological and clinical questions linked to various bone diseases, bone cell co-culture technology is believed to shed some light into the dark. Osteoblasts/osteocytes and osteoclasts dominate the metabolism of bone by a multitude of connections. Therefore, it is widely accepted that a constant improvement of co-culture models with both cell types cultured on a 3D scaffold, is aimed to mimic an in vivo environment as closely as possible. Although in recent years a considerable knowledge of bone co-culture models has been accumulated, there are still many open questions. We here try to summarize the actual knowledge and address open questions.

Abstract
Estrogen deficiency after menopause increases bone loss by activating RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation. Dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (DHCA), a lignan originally isolated from Cucurbita moschata, has been thought to be a phytoestrogen based on its structure. In this study, we tested whether DHCA could affect RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro and ovariectomy-induced bone loss in vivo. In RAW264.7 cells, DHCA inhibited RANKL-induced differentiation of osteoclasts. Consistently, expression of the six osteoclastogenic genes induced by RANKL was down-regulated. DHCA was also shown to suppress the NF-κB and p38 MAPK signaling pathways by activating AMPK. Data from transient transfection assays suggested that DHCA might activate the estrogen receptor signaling pathway. Effects of DHCA on RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis were reduced when cells were treated with specific siRNA to ERα, but not to ERβ. Interestingly, DHCA was predicted from molecular docking simulation to bind to both ERα and ERβ. Indeed, data from an estrogen receptor competition assay revealed that DHCA acted as an agonist on both estrogen receptors. In the ovariectomized (Ovx) mouse model, DHCA prevented Ovx-induced bone loss by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis. Taken together, our results suggest that DHCA may be developed as an efficient therapeutic for osteoporosis by regulating osteoclastogenesis through its estrogenic effects.

Binding of PICK1 PDZ domain with calcineurin B regulates osteoclast differentiation. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2018; 496:83-88.

Abstract
The calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T cell (NFAT) signaling pathway plays a major role in osteoclast differentiation; however, the proteins that react with the calcineurin-NFAT complex in osteoclasts to regulate osteoclastogenesis remain unclear. Here, we present evidence that PICK1 also positively regulates calcineurin B in osteoclasts to activate NFAT to promote osteoclastogenesis. mRNA and protein expression of PICK1 in murine primary bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) was significantly increased during RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation. The interaction of PICK1 with calcineurin B in BMMs was confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation. An inhibitor of the PICK1 PDZ domain significantly decreased osteoclastogenesis marker gene expression and the number of TRAP-positive multinucleated cells among RAW264.7 osteoclast progenitor cells. Overexpression of PICK1 in RAW264.7 cells significantly increased the number of TRAP-positive mature osteoclasts. Increased NFAT activation with transcriptional activation of PICK1 during RAW264.7 osteoclastogenesis was also confirmed in a tetracycline-controlled PICK1 expression system. These results suggest that the PDZ domain of PICK1 directly interacts with calcineurin B in osteoclast progenitor cells and promotes osteoclast differentiation through activation of calcineurin-NFAT signaling.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a common component of orthopedic prosthesis. However, prosthesis wear releases TiO2, which induces inflammation and osteolysis in peri-prosthetic tissues. Quercetin is a flavonoid widely present in human diet, which presents biological activities such as antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Therefore, the effect of intraperitoneal treatment with quercetin in TiO2-induced arthritis model was evaluated. In the first set of experiments, mice received injection of TiO2 (0.1-3 mg/knee joint) and articular mechanical hyperalgesia, edema and histopathology analysis were performed in a 30 days protocol. The dose of 3 mg of TiO2 showed the most harmful effect, and was chosen to the following experiments. Subsequently, mice received 3 mg of TiO2 followed by post-treatment with quercetin during 30 days. Quercetin (10-100 mg/kg) inhibited in a dose-dependent manner TiO2-induced knee joint mechanical hyperalgesia, edema and leukocyte recruitment and did not induce damage in major organs such as liver, kidney and stomach. The dose of 30 mg/kg was chosen for the subsequent analysis, and reduced histopathological changes such as leukocyte infiltration, vascular proliferation and synovial hyperplasia (pannus formation) on day 30 after TiO2 challenge. The protective analgesic and anti-inflammatory mechanisms of quercetin included the inhibition of TiO2-induced neutrophil and macrophage recruitment, proteoglycan degradation, oxidative stress, cytokine production (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10), COX-2 mRNA expression, and bone resorption as well as activation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. These results demonstrate the potential therapeutic applicability of the dietary flavonoid quercetin to reduce pain and inflammatory damages associated with prosthesis wear process-induced arthritis.

Abstract
Age-dependent bone loss occurs in humans and in several animal species, including rodents. The underlying causal mechanisms are probably multifactorial, although an age-associated increase in the generation of reactive oxygen species has been frequently implicated. We previously reported that aromatic amino acids function as antioxidants, are anabolic for bone, and that they may potentially play a protective role in an aging environment. We hypothesized that upon oxidation the aromatic amino acids would not only lose their anabolic effects but also potentially become a catabolic byproduct. When measured in vivo in C57BL/6 mice, the tryptophan oxidation product and kynurenine precursor, N-formylkynurenine (NFK), was found to increase with age. We tested the direct effects of feeding kynurenine (kyn) on bone mass and also tested the short-term effects of intraperitoneal kyn injection on bone turnover in CD-1 mice. μCT analyses showed kyn-induced bone loss. Levels of serum markers of osteoclastic activity (pyridinoline [PYD] and RANKL) increased significantly with kyn treatment. In addition, histological and histomorphometric studies showed an increase in osteoclastic activity in the kyn-treated groups in both dietary and injection-based studies. Further, kyn treatment significantly increased bone marrow adiposity, and BMSCs isolated from the kyn-injected mice exhibited decreased mRNA expression of Hdac3 and its cofactor NCoR1 and increased expression of lipid storage genes Cidec and Plin1. A similar pattern of gene expression is observed with aging. In summary, our data show that increasing kyn levels results in accelerated skeletal aging by impairing osteoblastic differentiation and increasing osteoclastic resorption. These data would suggest that kyn could play a role in age-induced bone loss. © 2017 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Osteocyte apoptosis is the first reaction to estrogen depletion, thereby stimulating osteoclastic bone resorption resulting in bone loss. We investigated the effects of two different risedronate (RIS) doses (high and low) on osteocyte apoptosis, osteoclast activity and bone loss in ovariectomized rats. Forty rats with ovariectomy (OVX) and sham ovariectomy (SHAM) were divided into 4 groups: 1) SHAM rats treated with saline (SHAM); 2) OVX rats treated with saline (OVX); 3) OVX rats treated with low-dose RIS (OVX-LR, 0.08 μg/kg/day); 4) OVX rats treated with high-dose RIS (OVX-HR, 0.8 μg/kg/day). All animals were sacrificed 90 days after surgery for the examinations of osteocyte apoptosis by caspase-3 staining, osteoclast activity by TRAP staining and bone volume by micro-CT scanning in lumbar vertebral cancellous bone. Both low and high dose RIS significantly reduced caspase-3 positive osteocytes, empty lacunae and TRAP positive osteoclasts in OVX rats. Although the difference in caspase-3 positive osteocytes was not significant between the OVX-LR and OVX-HR groups, numerically these cells were significantly more prevalent in OVX-HR (not OVX-LR) group than in SHAM group. TRAP positive osteoclasts were significantly higher in OVX-LR group than in SHAM or OVX-HR group. There was no significant difference in bone volume among the OVX-LR, OVX-HR and SHAM groups, but lower in OVX group alone. However, significant increase in trabecular thickness only occurred in OVX-LR group. We conclude that both low and high dose RIS significantly inhibit osteocyte apoptosis and osteoclast activity in OVX rats, but the low-dose RIS has weaker effect on osteoclast activity. However, low-dose RIS preserves cancellous bone mass and microarchitecture as well as high-dose RIS after estrogen depletion.

Abstract
To improve orthopedic implant fixation and reduce post-operative complications, osteogenic molecules are delivered locally by immobilizing them on the surface of implants, which will modulate the biology of cell attachment and differentiation on the implant surface. Estradiol, a natural steroid hormone, maintains bone metabolism by decreasing bone resorption. It either directly or indirectly affects osteoclasts. In this work, estradiol was immobilized on a titanium surface by polydopamine adlayer. Immobilization of estradiol was confirmed by X-ray electron spectroscopy (XPS), immunofluorescence staining and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Estradiol-modified substrates enhanced alkaline phosphatases activity (ALP) and calcium deposition of osteoblasts. However, these substrates did not decrease tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity and actin ring formation of the osteoclast. The scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images of estradiol-modified substrates showed the formation of estradiol crystals, which decreased the potency of immobilized estradiol. Despite having a successful immobilization of estradiol via the polydopamine technique, the bioavailability and potency of coated estradiol is reduced due to crystallization, suggesting that this is not a suitable system for localized estradiol delivery as tested in vitro here. Consequently, other suitable platforms have to be explored for immobilizing estradiol that will prevent crystal formation while preserving the biological activity.

Multinucleated giant cells in the implant bed of bone substitutes are foreign body giant cells-New insights into the material-mediated healing process. J Biomed Mater Res A 2017; 105:1105-1111. [PMID: 28093892 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.a.36006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2016] [Revised: 12/27/2016] [Accepted: 01/10/2017] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
In addition to macrophages, multinucleated giant cells (MNGCs) are involved in the tissue reaction to a variety of biomaterials. Especially in the case of bone substitute materials it has been assumed that the MNGCs are osteoclasts, based on the chemical and physical similarity of many materials to the calcified matrix and the bony environment in which they are used. However, many studies indicate that these cells belong to the cell line of the foreign body giant cells (FBGCs), which are of "inflammatory origin", although they have been shown to possess both a pro- and also anti-inflammatory phenotype. Moreover, no information is available about their role in the tissue reaction to bone substitute materials. The present study was conducted to analyze the origin of MNGCs in the implant beds of a synthetic and a xenogeneic bone substitute and focused on the application of immunohistochemical methods. Two antibodies against integrin molecules specific for osteoclasts (β-3 integrin) or FBGCs (β-2 integrin) were used to distinguish both giant cell types. The results of the present study indicate that the MNGCs induced by both kinds of bone substitutes are FBGCs, as they express only β-2 integrin in contrast to the osteoclasts outside of the immediate implantation areas, which only demonstrate β-3 integrin expression. These data give new insight into the tissue reaction to both xenogeneic and synthetic bone substitutes. Based on this new knowledge further research concerning the proteomic profile of the FBGCs especially based on the different physicochemical properties of bone substitutes is necessary. This may show that specific characteristics of bone substitutes may exhibit a substantial influence on the regeneration process via the expression of anti-inflammatory molecules by FBGCs. Based on this information it may be possible to formulate and choose bone substitutes that can guide the process of bone tissue regeneration on the molecular level. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Introduction of porosity to calcium phosphate scaffolds for bone repair has created a new challenge when measuring bioresorption in vitro, rendering traditional outcome measures redundant. The aim of this study is to identify a surrogate endpoint for use with 3D scaffolds. Murine RAW 264.7 cells are cultured on dense discs of β-tricalcium phosphate in conditions to stimulate osteoclast (OC) formation. Multinucleated OCs are visible from day 6 with increases at days 8 and 10. Resorption pits are first observed at day 6 with much larger pits visible at days 8, 10, and 12. The concentration of calcium ions in the presence of cells is significantly higher than cell-free cultures at days 3 and 9. Using linear regression analysis, Ca ion release could account for 35.9% of any subsequent change in resorption area. The results suggest that Ca ion release is suitable to measure resorption of a beta-tricalcium phosphate ceramic substrate in vitro. This model could replace the more accepted resorption pit assay in circumstances where quantification of pits is not possible, e.g., when characterizing 3D tissue engineered bone scaffolds.

Abstract
Objective Receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) appears to be
an osteoclast-activating factor, bearing an important role in the pathogenesis of multiple
myeloma. Some studies demonstrated that U-266 myeloma cell line and primary myeloma
cells expressed RANK and RANKL. It had been reported that the expression of myeloid
and monocytoid markers was increased by co-culturing myeloma cells with hematopoietic
stem cells (HSCs). This study also attempted to show the molecular mechanism of RANK
and RANKL on differentiation capability of human cord blood HSC to osteoclast, as well
as expression of calcitonin receptor (CTR) on cord blood HSC surface.
Materials and Methods In this experimental study, CD133+ hematopoietic stem cells were
isolated from umbilical cord blood and cultured in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and RANKL. Osteoclast differentiation was characterized by using
tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, giemsa staining, immunophenotyping,
and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for specific genes.
Results Hematopoietic stem cells expressed RANK before and after differentiation into
osteoclast. Compared to control group, flow cytometric results showed an increased
expression of RANK after differentiation. Expression of CTR mRNA showed TRAP reaction was positive in some differentiated cells, including osteoclast cells.
Conclusion Presence of RANKL and M-CSF in bone marrow could induce HSCs
differentiation into osteoclast.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The increasing evidence suggesting the role of free radicals in bone resorption and bone loss prompted us to explore whether the consumption of antioxidant rich medicinal plant C. quadrangularis modifies antioxidant status in ovariectomized rats. METHODS Twenty four female adult rats, 90days old showing regular estrous cycles were used for the present study. The animals were divided into two groups. The Group-1 rats (n=6) were sham operated and Group-II rats were bilaterally ovariectomized (n=18) and treated with C. quadrangularis for sixty days (100mg/kg body weight and 250mg/kg body weight). After sixty days, the rats were killed, femora were dissected out, minced and homogenized in Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4) and the supernatant was collected and used for biochemical assays. RESULTS Ovariectomy registered a decrease (p<0.05) in the activities of SOD, GPx, GST, ALP, collagen content and increased (p<0.05) the activities of TRAP and lipid peroxidation. Simultaneous administration of C. quadrangularis maintained the enzyme activities in ovariectomized rats. CONCLUSION C. quadrangularis, a natural herb may be used to treat the estrogen deficiency/menopause onset and ovariectomy induced oxidative stress.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) is frequently used as bone substitute and often needs to be combined with autologous bone to gain an osteoinductive property for guided bone regeneration in implant dentistry. Given the limitations of using autologous bone, bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2)-coprecipitated, layer-by-layer assembled biomimetic calcium phosphate particles (BMP2-cop.BioCaP) have been developed as a potential osteoinducer. In this study, we hypothesized that BMP2-cop.BioCaP could introduce osteoinductivity to BCP and so could function as effectively as autologous bone for the repair of a critical-sized bone defect. MATERIALS AND METHODS We prepared BMP2-cop.BioCaP and monitored the loading and release kinetics of BMP2 from it in vitro. Seven groups (n = 6 animals/group) were established: (i) Empty defect; (ii) BCP; (iii) BCP mixed with biomimetic calcium phosphate particles (BioCaP); (iv) BCP mixed with BMP2-cop.BioCaP; (v) BioCaP; (vi) BMP2-cop.BioCaP; (vii) BCP mixed with autologous bone. They were implanted into 8-mm-diameter rat cranial critical-sized bone defects for an in vivo evaluation. Autologous bone served as a positive control. The osteoinductive efficacy and degradability of materials were evaluated using micro-CT, histology and histomorphometry. RESULTS The combined application of BCP and BMP2-cop.BioCaP resulted in significantly more new bone formation than BCP alone. The osteoinductive efficacy of BMP2-cop.BioCaP was comparable to the golden standard use of autologous bone. Compared with BCP alone, significantly more BCP degradation was found when mixed with BMP2-cop.BioCaP. CONCLUSION The combination of BCP and BMP2-cop.BioCaP showed a promising potential for guided bone regeneration clinically in the future.

Combination therapy with BMP-2 and a systemic RANKL inhibitor enhances bone healing in a mouse critical-sized femoral defect. Bone 2016; 84:93-103.

Abstract
Recombinant human BMP-2 (rhBMP-2) is a potent osteoinductive agent, but has been associated not only with bone formation, but also osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a RANKL inhibitor that blocks differentiation and function of osteoclasts. We hypothesized that the combination of local BMP-2 (recombinant protein or a product of gene therapy) plus systemic OPG-Fc is more effective than BMP-2 alone in promoting bone repair. To test this hypothesis we used a mouse critical-sized femoral defect model. Col2.3eGFP (osteoblastic marker) male mice were treated with rhBMP-2 (group I), rhBMP-2 and systemic OPG (group II), rhBMP-2 and delayed administration of OPG (group III), mouse BM cells transduced with a lentiviral vector containing the BMP-2 gene (LV-BMP-2; group IV), LV-BMP-2 and systemic OPG (group V), a carrier alone (group VI) and administration of OPG alone (group VII). All bone defects treated with BMP-2 (alone or combined with OPG) healed, whereas minimal bone formation was noted in animals treated with the carrier alone or OPG alone. MicroCT analysis showed that bone volume (BV) in rhBMP-2+OPG and LV-BMP-2+OPG groups was significantly higher compared to rhBMP-2 alone (p<0.01) and LV-BMP-2 alone (p<0.001). Similar results were observed in histomorphometry, with rhBMP-2 alone defects exhibiting significantly lower bone area (B.Ar) compared to rhBMP-2+OPG defects (p<0.005) and LV-BMP-2 defects having a significantly lower B.Ar compared to all BMP-2+OPG treated groups (p≤0.01). TRAP staining demonstrated a major osteoclast response in the groups that did not receive OPG (rhBMP-2, LV-BMP-2 and sponge alone) beginning as early as 7days post-operatively. In conclusion, we demonstrated that locally delivered BMP-2 (recombinant protein or gene therapy) in combination with systemically administered OPG improved bone healing compared to BMP-2 alone in a mouse critical-sized bone defect. These data indicate that osteoclasts can diminish healing responses to BMP-2 and that RANKL inhibition may thus accentuate BMP-2 efficacy.

Abstract
Lysyl oxidases are required for collagen and elastin cross-linking and extracellular matrix maturation including in bone. The lysyl oxidase family consists of lysyl oxidase (LOX) and 4 isoforms (LOXL1-4). Here we investigate whether deletion of LOXL1, which has been linked primarily to elastin maturation, leads to skeletal abnormalities. Left femurs (n = 8), L5 vertebrae (n = 8), and tibiae (n = 8) were analyzed by micro-computed tomography in 13-week-old wild-type (WT) and LOXL1-/- male and female mice. Right femurs (n = 8) were subjected to immunohistochemistry for LOXL1, and histochemical/histology analyses of osteoclasts and growth plates. Sera from all mice were analyzed for bone turnover markers. Results indicate strong expression of LOXL1 in wild-type growth plates in femurs. Significant deterioration of trabecular bone structure in long bones and vertebrae from female was observed but not from male, mutant mice compared with WT. Decreases in BV/TV, Conn.D, trabecular thickness, and number in the femoral distal metaphysis were observed in female, but not in male, mutant mice. Trabecular spacing was increased significantly in femurs of female mutant mice. Findings were similar in trabeculae of L5 vertebrae from female mutant mice. The number of TRAP positive osteoclasts at the trabecular bone surface was increased in female mutant mice compared with WT females, consistent with increased serum RANKL and decreased OPG levels. Analysis of bone turnover markers confirmed increased bone resorption as indicated by significantly elevated CTX-1 in the serum of female LOXL1-/- mice compared to their wild-type counterparts, as well as decreased bone formation as measured by decreased serum levels of PINP. Picrosirius red staining revealed a loss of heterogeneity in collagen organization in female LOXL1-/- mice only, with little to no yellow and orange birefringence. Organization was also impaired in chondrocyte columns in both female and male LOXL1-/- mice, but to a greater extent in females. Data indicate that LOXL1-/- mutant mice develop appendicular and axial skeletal phenotypes characterized by decreased bone volume fraction and compromised trabecular microstructure, predominantly in females.

Abstract
Precise control of jaw length during development is crucial for proper form and function. Previously we have shown that in birds, neural crest mesenchyme (NCM) confers species-specific size and shape to the beak by regulating molecular and histological programs for the induction and deposition of cartilage and bone. Here we reveal that a hitherto unrecognized but similarly essential mechanism for establishing jaw length is the ability of NCM to mediate bone resorption. Osteoclasts are considered the predominant cells that resorb bone, although osteocytes have also been shown to participate in this process. In adults, bone resorption is tightly coupled to bone deposition as a means to maintain skeletal homeostasis. Yet, the role and regulation of bone resorption during growth of the embryonic skeleton have remained relatively unexplored. We compare jaw development in short-beaked quail versus long-billed duck and find that quail have substantially higher levels of enzymes expressed by bone-resorbing cells including tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), Matrix metalloproteinase 13 (Mmp13), and Mmp9. Then, we transplant NCM destined to form the jaw skeleton from quail to duck and generate chimeras in which osteocytes arise from quail donor NCM and osteoclasts come exclusively from the duck host. Chimeras develop quail-like jaw skeletons coincident with dramatically elevated expression of TRAP, Mmp13, and Mmp9. To test for a link between bone resorption and jaw length, we block resorption using a bisphosphonate, osteoprotegerin protein, or an MMP13 inhibitor, and this significantly lengthens the jaw. Conversely, activating resorption with RANKL protein shortens the jaw. Finally, we find that higher resorption in quail presages their relatively lower adult jaw bone mineral density (BMD) and that BMD is also NCM-mediated. Thus, our experiments suggest that NCM not only controls bone resorption by its own derivatives but also modulates the activity of mesoderm-derived osteoclasts, and in so doing enlists bone resorption as a key patterning mechanism underlying the functional morphology and evolution of the jaw.

Cardiac Nerve Growth Factor Overexpression Induces Bone Marrow-derived Progenitor Cells Mobilization and Homing to the Infarcted Heart. Mol Ther 2015; 23:1854-66.

Abstract
Reparative response by bone marrow (BM)-derived progenitor cells (PCs) to ischemia is a multistep process that comprises the detachment from the BM endosteal niche through activation of osteoclasts and proteolytic enzymes (such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)), mobilization to the circulation, and homing to the injured tissue. We previously showed that intramyocardial nerve growth factor gene transfer (NGF-GT) promotes cardiac repair following myocardial infarction (MI) in mice. Here, we investigate the impact of cardiac NGF-GT on postinfarction BM-derived PCs mobilization and homing at different time points after adenovirus-mediated NGF-GT in mice. Immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry newly illustrate the temporal profile of osteoclast and activation of MMP9, PCs expansion in the BM, and liberation/homing to the injured myocardium. NGF-GT amplified these responses and increased the BM levels of active osteoclasts and MMP9, which were not observed in MMP9-deficient mice. Taken together, our results suggest a novel role for NGF in BM-derived PCs mobilization/homing following MI.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a common complication of CKD, and uremic toxins have been shown to be instrumental in this process. We have previously shown that miR-223 is increased in smooth muscle cells subjected to the uremic toxin inorganic phosphate (Pi). In the present study we investigated the influence of this miRNA in osteoclastogenesis in order to elucidate its role in the course of CKD-MBD. RT-qPCR demonstrated that high Pi concentration decreased miR-223 expression in differentiated RAW 264.7 cells. Up- and down-regulation of miR-223 was performed using specific pre-miR and anti-miR-223. Differentiation of monocyte/macrophage precursors was assessed by using RAW 264.7 cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). TRAP activity and bone resorption were used to measure osteoclast activity. Pi induced a marked decrease in osteoclastogenesis in RAW cells and miR-223 levels were concomitantly decreased. Anti-miR-223 treatment inhibited osteoclastogenesis in the same way as Pi. In contrast, overexpression of miR-223 triggered differentiation, as reflected by TRAP activity. We showed that miR-223 affected the expression of its target genes NFIA and RhoB, but also osteoclast marker genes and the Akt signalling pathway, which induces osteoclastogenesis. These results were confirmed by measuring bone resorption activity of human PBMC differentiated into osteoclasts. We thus demonstrate a role of miR-223 in osteoclast differentiation, with rational grounds to use deregulation of this miRNA to selectively increase osteoclast-like activity in calcified vessels of CKD-MBD. This approach could alleviate vascular calcification without altering bone structure.

Abstract
The normal skeletal developmental and homeostatic process termed osteoclastogenesis is exacerbated in numerous pathological conditions and causes excess bone loss. In cancer and HIV-1-infected patients, this disruption of homeostasis results in osteopenia and eventual osteoporesis. Counteracting the factors responsible for these metabolic disorders remains a challenge for preventing or minimizing this co-morbidity associated with these diseases. In this report, we demonstrate that a hemin-induced host protection mechanism not only suppresses HIV-1 associated osteoclastogenesis, but it also exhibits anti-osteoclastogenic activity for non-infected cells. Since the mode of action of hemin is both physiological and pharmacological through induction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), an endogenous host protective response to an FDA-licensed therapeutic used to treat another disease, our study suggests an approach to developing novel, safe and effective therapeutic strategies for treating bone disorders, because hemin administration in humans has previously met required FDA safety standards.

Abstract
The Wnt pathway has an important role in bone formation. Inactivation of sclerostin, an inhibitor of this pathway, has been associated with increased bone mass both in animal experiments and in human clinical trials. Romosozumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting sclerostin. Preclinical studies showed that this antibody primarily increases bone formation resulting in increased bone mineral density. Initial studies carried out in humans are in line with data obtained in animals. If these results are confirmed in larger studies with fracture end-points, this monoclonal antibody with its anabolic action, will become a key drug in the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are large multinucleated cells that arise from the fusion of cells from the monocyte/macrophage lineage. Osteoclastogenesis is mediated by macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB ligand (RANKL) and involves a complex multistep process that requires numerous other elements, many of which remain undefined. The primary aim of this project was to identify novel factors which regulate osteoclastogenesis. To carry out this investigation, microarray analysis was performed comparing two pre-osteoclast cell lines generated from RAW264.7 macrophages: one that has the capacity to fuse forming large multinucleated cells and one that does not fuse. It was found that CD109 was up-regulated by>17-fold in the osteoclast forming cell line when compared to the cell line that does not fuse, at day 2 of the differentiation process. Results obtained with microarray were confirmed by RT-qPCR and Western blot analyses in the two cell lines, in the parental RAW264.7 cell line, as well as primary murine monocytes from bone marrow. A significant increase of CD109 mRNA and protein expression during osteoclastogenesis occurred in all tested cell types. In order to characterize the role of CD109 in osteoclastogenesis, CD109 stable knockdown cell lines were established and fusion of osteoclast precursors into osteoclasts was assessed. It was found that CD109 knockdown cell lines were less capable of forming large multinucleated osteoclasts. It has been shown here that CD109 is expressed in monocytes undergoing RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. Moreover, when CD109 expression is suppressed in vitro, osteoclast formation decreases. This suggests that CD109 might be an important regulator of osteoclastogenesis. Further research is needed in order to characterize the role played by CD109 in regulation of osteoclast differentiation.

Abstract
It has been shown that inorganic monomeric and polymeric silica/silicate, in the presence of the biomineralization cocktail, increases the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) in osteogenic SaOS-2 sarcoma cells in vitro. In contrast, silicate does not affect the steady-state gene expression level of the osteoclastogenic ligand receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL). In turn it can be expected that the concentration ratio of the mediators OPG/RANKL increases in the presence of silicate. In addition, silicate enhances the growth potential of SaOS-2 cells in vitro, while it causes no effect on RAW 264.7 cells within a concentration range of 10-100 µM. Applying a co-cultivation assay system, using SaOS-2 cells and RAW 264.7 cells, it is shown that in the presence of 10 µM silicate the number of RAW 264.7 cells in general, and the number of TRAP(+) RAW 264.7 cells in particular markedly decreases. The SaOS-2 cells retain their capacity of differential gene expression of OPG and RANKL in favor of OPG after exposure to silicate. It is concluded that after exposure of the cells to silicate a factor(s) is released from SaOS-2 cells that causes a significant inhibition of osteoclastogenesis of RAW 264.7 cells. It is assumed that it is an increased secretion of the cytokine OPG that is primarily involved in the reduction of the osteoclastogenesis of the RAW 264.7 cells. It is proposed that silicate might have the potential to stimulate osteogenesis in vivo and perhaps to ameliorate osteoporotic disorders.

Abstract
Modulation of Rho GTPases Rac1 and Rac2 impacts bone development, remodeling, and disease. In addition, GTPases are considered treatment targets for dysplastic and erosive bone diseases including Neurofibromatosis type 1. While it is important to understand the effects of Rac modulation on osteoclast function, two-dimensional resorption pit area measurements fall short in elucidating the volume aspect of bone resorption activity. Bone marrow from wild-type, Rac1 and Rac2 null mice was isolated from femora. Osteoclastogenesis was induced by adding M-CSF and RANKL in culture plates containing dentin slices and later stained with Picro Sirius Red to image resorption lacunae. Osteoclasts were also plated on glass cover slips and stained with phalloidin and DAPI to measure their surface area and the number of nuclei. Volumetric images were collected on a laser-scanning confocal system. Sirius Red confocal imaging provided an unambiguous, continuous definition of the pit boundary compared to reflected and transmitted light imaging. Rac1- and Rac2-deficient osteoclasts had fewer nuclei in comparison to wild-type counterparts. Rac1-deficient osteoclasts showed reduced resorption pit volume and surface area. Lacunae made by single Rac2 null osteoclasts had reduced volume but surprisingly surface area was unaffected. Surface area measures are deceiving since volume changed independently in resorption pits made by individual Rac2 null osteoclasts. Our innovative confocal imaging technique allows us to derive novel conclusions about Rac1 and Rac2 in osteoclast function. The data and method can be applied to study effects of genes and drugs including Rho GTPase modulators on osteoclast function and to develop pharmacotherapeutics to treat bone lytic disorders.

Abstract
The repair of critical-sized bony defects remains a challenge in the fields of implantology, maxillofacial surgery and orthopaedics. As an alternative bone-defect filler to autologous bone grafts, deproteinized bovine bone (DBB) is highly osteoconductive and clinically now widely used. However, this product suffers from the disadvantage of not being intrinsically osteoinductive. In the present study, this property was conferred by coating DBB with a layer of calcium phosphate into which bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) was incorporated. Granules of DBB bearing a coating-incorporated depot of BMP-2--together with the appropriate controls (DBB bearing a coating but no BMP-2; uncoated DBB bearing adsorbed BMP-2; uncoated DBB bearing no BMP-2)--were implanted subcutaneously in rats. Five weeks later, the implants were withdrawn for a histomorphometric analysis of the volume densities of (i) bone, (ii) bone marrow, (iii) foreign-body giant cells and (iv) fibrous capsular tissue. Parameters (i) and (ii) were highest, whilst parameters (iii) and (iv) were lowest in association with DBB bearing a coating-incorporated depot of BMP-2. Hence, this mode of functionalization not only confers DBB with the property of osteoinductivity but also improves its biocompatibility--thus dually enhancing its clinical potential in the repair of bony defects.

Abstract
This study was performed to investigate the effect of monthly oral administration of 500 μg of calcidiol (25-hydroxyvitamin D(3)) for 4 months on both serum vitamin D levels and sequential changes of parameters of calcium metabolism; 18 normal women aged 24-72 years were investigated. There was a significant increase of serum 25(OH)D after the first administration; thereafter all values persisted significantly higher compared to the basal value (P < 0.001). Mean 1,25(OH)(2)D serum levels peaked at day 3 and then tended to stabilize following day 30. During the first month, all mean values observed following the initial administration were significantly higher than basal values. The first calcidiol dose produced a significant reduction of serum PTH levels (P < 0.001), which then remained constant over time. Concerning serum calcium and phosphorus, we were not able to demonstrate any significant change during the entire observation period. Considering the single values for both serum ionized and total calcium, the values of Ca(2+) exceeded upper limits of normal on only two occasions. Regarding biochemical markers of bone remodeling, mean changes of serum bone isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase activity showed a significant trend to decrease, starting at day 30. No significant changes of serum CTX values were noted. Overall, 24-h urinary excretion of calcium did not change, seven values exceeding the threshold of 4 mg/kg body weight. Monthly administration of 500 μg of 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) may be considered an alternative for vitamin D repletion, without any detrimental effect.

Abstract
Breast to bone metastasis is a common occurrence in the majority of patients with advanced breast cancer. The metastases are often incurable and are associated with bone destruction and high rates of morbidity. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of how metastatic tumor cells induce bone destruction is critically important. We previously reported that Tie2, a receptor tyrosine kinase, is significantly increased in human breast cancer tissues compared with normal and benign breast tumors and regulates tumor angiogenesis. In this study, we identify a new function of Tie2 in osteoclastogenesis and osteolytic bone invasion of breast cancer. Tie2 is present in hematopoietic stem/precursor cells. Genetic deletion of Tie2 or neutralization of Tie2 function using soluble Tie2 receptor impaired osteoclastogenesis in an embryonic stem cell differentiation assay. In contrast, deletion of Tie2 has no effect on osteoblastogenesis. As CD11b myeloid cells have the potential to become osteoclasts and Tie2 is present in a certain population of these cells, we isolated Tie2(+) and Tie2(-) myeloid cells. We observed a significant reduction of osteoclastogenesis in Tie2(-) compared with Tie2(+) CD11b cells. Consistently, neutralization of Tie2 activity in vivo significantly inhibited osteolytic bone invasion and tumor growth in a mammary tumor model, which correlated with a significant reduction of osteoclasts and tumor angiogenesis. Collectively, these data reveal a direct and novel role of Tie2 signaling in osteoclast differentiation. These findings identify Tie2 as a therapeutic target for controlling not only tumor angiogenesis but also osteolytic bone metastasis in breast cancer.

Abstract
Resorption and remodelling of skeletal tissues is required for development and growth, mechanical adaptation, repair, and mineral homeostasis of the vertebrate skeleton. Here we review for the first time the current knowledge about resorption and remodelling of the skeleton in teleost fish, the largest and most diverse group of extant vertebrates. Teleost species are increasingly used in aquaculture and as models in biomedical skeletal research. Thus, detailed knowledge is required to establish the differences and similarities between mammalian and teleost skeletal remodelling, and between distantly related species such as zebrafish (Danio rerio) and medaka (Oryzias latipes). The cellular mechanisms of differentiation and activation of osteoclasts and the functions of teleost skeletal remodelling are described. Several characteristics, related to skeletal remodelling, distinguish teleosts from mammals. These characteristics include (a) the absence of osteocytes in most species; (b) the absence of haematopoietic bone marrow tissue; (c) the abundance of small mononucleated osteoclasts performing non-lacunar (smooth) bone resorption, in addition to or instead of multinucleated osteoclasts; and (d) a phosphorus- rather than calcium-driven mineral homeostasis (mainly affecting the postcranial dermal skeleton). Furthermore, (e) skeletal resorption is often absent from particular sites, due to sparse or lacking endochondral ossification. Based on the mode of skeletal remodelling in early ontogeny of all teleosts and in later stages of development of teleosts with acellular bone we suggest a link between acellular bone and the predominance of mononucleated osteoclasts, on the one hand, and cellular bone and multinucleated osteoclasts on the other. The evolutionary origin of skeletal remodelling is discussed and whether mononucleated osteoclasts represent an ancestral type of resorbing cells. Revealing the differentiation and activation of teleost skeletal resorbing cells, in the absence of several factors that trigger mammalian osteoclast differentiation, is a current challenge. Understanding which characters of teleost bone remodelling are derived and which characters are conserved should enhance our understanding of the process in fish and may provide insights into alternative pathways of bone remodelling in mammals.

Abstract
Perlecan knock-in mice were developed to model Schwartz-Jampel syndrome (SJS), a skeletal disease resulting from decreased perlecan. Two mouse strains were generated: those carrying a C-to-Y mutation at residue 1532 and the neomycin cassette (C1532Yneo) and those harboring the mutation alone (C1532Y). Immunostaining, biochemistry, size measurements, skeletal studies and histology revealed Hspg2 transcriptional changes in C1532Yneo mice, leading to reduced perlecan secretion and a skeletal disease phenotype characteristic of SJS patients. Skeletal disease features include smaller size, impaired mineralization, misshapen bones, flat face and joint dysplasias reminiscent of osteoarthritis and osteonecrosis. Moreover, C1532Yneo mice displayed transient expansion of hypertrophic cartilage in the growth plate concomitant with radial trabecular bone orientation. In contrast, C1532Y mice, harboring only the mutation associated with SJS, displayed a mild phenotype, inconsistent with SJS. These studies question the C1532Y mutation as the sole causative factor of SJS in the human family harboring this alteration and imply that transcriptional changes leading to perlecan reduction may represent the disease mechanism for SJS.

Abstract
Tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity of bone is a suitable biochemical marker for osteoclastic bone resorption. Qualitatively, the histochemical distribution of TRAP has been used to identify osteoclasts responsible for bone resorption; however, there have been few attempts to quantify TRAP localization. We describe a method for evaluating bone resorption by quantifying area percentages of positive TRAP localization using image analysis. Mouse tibiae were paraffin embedded following demineralization in disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid. Longitudinal sections of tibia were cut from 15 levels in the left and the right limbs of six mice (180 sections total) and stained for TRAP distribution. Positive TRAP localization was quantified by pixel area count and reported as a percentage of the total tissue area specified. The 1.85 mm2 region of interest was placed at the midpoint of the epiphyseal growth plate containing the provisional calcification layer and the primary spongiosa, while excluding cortical bone of each mouse tibia. The percentage of TRAP localization ranged from 0.95 to 1.31% and was not significantly different from level to level or limb to limb in each mouse (p > 0.100). Within the same region of interest, an osteoclast count along the bone perimeter also was performed. We demonstrated a strong correlation (r2 = 0.903) between the conventional histomorphometric osteoclast index and positive TRAP localization, validating the latter as an alternative method to assess bone resorption. Quantitative analysis of TRAP is significant because it allows statistical comparisons between treatment groups, promotes precise pathological diagnoses and facilitates a reference data base that may aid the study of bone related diseases involving increased bone resorption.

Abstract
Osteoclasts secrete tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP 5b) into the circulation. We have developed an immunoassay for the determination of rat TRACP 5b activity. Intra-assay variation of the immunoassay was 4.5%, interassay variation was 3.8%, dilution linearity was 104.6 +/- 7.6%, and recovery of recombinant rat TRACP was 99.1 +/- 5.8%. We studied serum TRACP 5b as a marker of bone resorption using orchidectomized (ORC) rats as a model for osteoporosis and age-matched sham-operated rats as controls in a 6-month study. After the operation, trabecular bone mineral density decreased significantly more in the ORC group than in the sham group, whereas cortical bone mineral density increased similarly in both groups. Serum TRACP 5b activity was significantly elevated within the first week after ORC, returned to the control level in the third week, and was not increased above the sham level at any of the later time points. At 6 months, trabecular bone volume was 80% lower in ORC rats than in controls. Osteoclast number per trabecular bone perimeter was slightly increased, but the absolute number of osteoclasts in trabecular bone was significantly decreased. These results suggest that absolute bone resorption is increased within the first week after ORC. Later, it is decreased because there is less bone to be resorbed. However, relative bone resorption (compared with the amount of remaining bone) is still increased, leading to further bone loss. We conclude that serum TRACP 5b is a useful marker for monitoring changes in the bone resorption rate in rat ORC model.

Abstract
To provide basic data about bone resorbing cells in the skeleton during the life cycle of Danio rerio, larvae, juveniles, and adults (divided into six age groups) were studied by histological procedures and by demonstration of the osteoclast marker enzyme tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP). Special attention was paid to the lower jaw, which is a standard element for fish bone studies. The presence of osteoclasts at endosteal surfaces of growing bones of all animals older than 20 days reveals that resorption is an important part of zebrafish skeletal development. The first bone-resorbing cells to form are mononucleated. They appear in 20-day-old animals concurrently in the craniofacial skeleton and vertebral column. Mononucleated osteoclasts are predominant in juveniles. Regional differences characterize the appearance of osteoclasts; at thin skeletal elements (neural arches, nasal) mononucleated osteoclasts are predominant even in adults. Multinucleated bone-resorbing cells were first observed in 40-day-old animals and are the predominant osteoclast type of adults. Both mono- and multinucleated osteoclasts contribute to allometric bone growth but multinucleated osteoclasts are also involved in lacunar bone resorption and repeated bone remodeling. Resorption of the dentary follows the pattern described above (mononucleated osteoclasts precede multinucleated cells) and includes the partial removal of Meckel's cartilage. Bone marrow spaces created by resorption are usually filled with adipose tissue. In conclusion, bone resorption is primarily subjected to the demands of growth, the appearance of mono- and multinucleated osteoclasts is site- and age-related, and bone remodeling occurs. The results are discussed in relation to findings in other teleosts and in mammals.

Abstract
Few data are available describing the in vivo localization of cytokines in bone. The objective of this study was to describe the histological localization of interleukin-6 (IL-6) relative to osteoblasts (alkaline phosphate [ALP]-positive cells) and osteoclasts (tartrate-resistant acid phosphate [TRAP]-positive cells) in midsagittal, paraffin-embedded serial sections of thoracic 13 (T-13) vertebrae from 49 female cynomolgus monkeys. Serial sections 1 and 4 were immunostained for IL-6, section 2 was histochemically stained for TRAP, and section 3 was immunostained for ALP. Sixteen centrally located fields were measured in the cancellous compartment and grid alignment among sections was verified using image analysis. Using a Merz grid, IL-6 localized to 6% of the bone surface on sections 1 and 4, whereas TRAP localized to 8.5% and ALP to 12% of the bone surface. Colocalization was defined as positive staining within an 80 x 80 microm block in the first serial section that "overlapped" staining in either the corresponding block or its eight surrounding blocks within the second serial section. For each section, 1600 blocks were analyzed. Using Monte Carlo simulations, random colocalization was calculated to determine the statistical significance of experimental colocalizations. Colocalization of approximately 90% between the two IL-6 sections verified staining reproducibility and proper grid alignment among sections. Colocalization of TRAP and ALP was not statistically different from random (p 0.3). As identified using ALP- or TRAP-positive surfaces, there was significant IL-6 colocalization with osteoblasts (p < 0.003), but not with osteoclasts (p 0.3). These in vivo colocalization data support the hypothesis that osteoblasts produce and respond to IL-6.

Abstract
Type II autosomal dominant osteopetrosis (ADO2) is an inherited disorder characterized by increased skeletal mass and characteristic abnormalities evident on radiography. Although previous investigators have described nonpenetrant individuals (carriers), it is not known whether carriers manifest subtle abnormalities. We hypothesized that ADO2 carriers would have an abnormality of osteoclast function that would lead to changes in bone mineral density (BMD), in serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), or in creatine kinase isoenzyme BB (CK-BB) levels that would permit carrier recognition. We identified a female carrier in a well-established ADO2 family and measured BMD, serum TRAP, and CK-BB concentrations. She had normal BMD, serum TRAP, and CK-BB concentrations. Thus, these measurements cannot be used to exclude carrier status in individuals who are seen for genetic counseling. However, measurements in other asymptotic carriers are necessary before concluding that these measurements are normal in all or most nonpenetrant individuals.

Abstract
When administered intermittently, parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a strong anabolic agent, increasing both bone mass and bone mechanical strength and competence. This study evaluates the fate of PTH-induced bone in vertebral bodies after withdrawal of PTH treatment in normal old rats. Sixty-seven 21-month-old male rats were treated with 62 microg/kg/day PTH(1-34) for 8 weeks, followed by saline or bisphosphonate (risedronate, 5 microg/kg twice a week) for another 8 weeks. The rats were scanned by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at intervals. The bone mineral content (BMC) of L2-5 increased by 33% during the PTH treatment. The BMC started decreasing shortly after withdrawal of PTH and continued to decline during the 8 weeks after withdrawal of PTH. Risedronate, however, prevented this decrease in BMC. All rats were labeled with tetracycline and calcein 3 weeks and 1 week before the cessation of PTH therapy. In the cancellous bone, PTH increased the mineralized surface: 32.9% +/- 2.8% (mean +/- standard error of the mean) vs. controls 12.0% +/- 1.5%, the mineral appositional rate (0.65 +/- 0.02 to 0.88 +/- 0.06 microm/day), and the cancellous bone volume (BV/TV: 14.5% +/- 0.7% to 27.5% +/- 1.7%). Withdrawal of PTH induced a fast and pronounced bone resorption, decreasing both the extent of the fluorochrome labels and the cancellous bone volume to control values. Risedronate prevented this resorption. In the cortical bone of the vertebral shell, PTH induced large increases in the endocortical mineralized surface, mineral appositional rate, and cortical area. The endocortical fluorochrome labels were, however, resorbed after withdrawal of PTH. Risedronate maintained both the fluorochrome labels and the cortical area. At the periosteum, the response to PTH was less evident, however, and hardly any labeling was seen at the periosteum facing the vertebral canal either in the controls or in the PTH-treated rats. The compressive strength of the vertebral body specimens increased with PTH treatment whether measured in newtons (317 +/- 23 to 623 +/- 54 N), normalized to cross-sectional area (23.0 +/- 1.4 to 44.7 +/- 2.5 N/mm2), or to ash content per millimeter height (58 +/- 2 to 76 +/- 2 N x mm/mg). Withdrawal of PTH decreased the compressive strength and competence to control values. Risedronate, however, maintained the PTH-induced mechanical strength and competence. The study discloses that even in very old rats withdrawal of PTH treatment causes a rapid and pronounced decline in the bone mass deposited during PTH treatment; treatment with risedronate can, however, maintain the PTH-induced bone properties in the axial skeleton of old rats.
