Abstract
Low back pain is usually caused by intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), during which the involvement of oxidation system imbalance and inflammasome activation cannot be neglected. In this study, we aimed to validate the expression level of TXNIP in IVDD and investigate the function and potential mechanism of action of verapamil. TXNIP is upregulated in the degenerate nucleus pulposus in both humans and rats, as well as in tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP)-stimulated nucleus pulposus cells. Administration of verapamil, a classic clinical drug, mitigated the TBHP-induced overproduction of reactive oxygen species and activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, thus protecting cells from pyroptosis, apoptosis, and extracellular matrix degradation. The Nrf2/TXNIP/NLRP3 axis plays a major role in verapamail-mediated protection. In vivo, a puncture-induced IVDD rat model was constructed, and we found that verapamil delayed the development of IVDD at both the imaging and histological levels. In summary, our results indicate the potential therapeutic effects and mechanisms of action of verapamil in the treatment of IVDD.

Abstract
Voriconazole‐associated periostitis (VAP) is an underrecognized and unpredictable side effect of long‐term voriconazole therapy. We report two cases of VAP occurring in the post‐transplant setting: a 68‐year‐old lung transplant recipient who required ongoing voriconazole therapy, in whom urinary alkalinization was used to promote fluoride excretion and minimize voriconazole‐related skeletal toxicity, and a 68‐year‐old stem‐cell transplant recipient with a high voriconazole dose requirement, identified on pharmacogenomic testing to be a CYP2C19 ultrarapid metabolizer, the dominant enzyme in voriconazole metabolism. This is the first reported case of pharmacogenomic profiling in VAP and may explain the variability in individual susceptibility to this uncommon adverse effect. Our findings provide new insights into both the management and underlying pathophysiology of VAP. © 2021 The Authors.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is a vital physiological process of healthy bone tissue in humans. Imbalances in this vital process lead to pathological conditions, including periodontal diseases. In this study, we characterized the effects of micromolar levels of NaF on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells. NaF significantly enhanced the proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and mineralization of MC3T3-E1 cells. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that the expression of mRNAs encoding runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), Osterix, Osteopontin and Osteocalcin was up-regulated in NaF-treated MC3T3-E1 cells compared with untreated controls. Western blot analysis demonstrated that Runx2 and Osterix were inhibited by Runx2 siRNA but were re-activated by treatment with NaF. Furthermore, in vivo evidence indicated that NaF protects against Porphyromonas gingivalis-induced periodontal inflammation and alveolar bone loss in a P. gingivalis-challenged experimental periodontitis animal model. These data suggest that NaF promotes the osteoblastic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells through the Runx2/Osterix pathway and may be effective for the treatment of bone-related disorders.

Abstract
This study aimed to preliminary investigate the role of activin receptor-like kinase (ALK) 5 as one of TGF-βR1 subtypes in bone turnover and osteoblastic differentiation induced by fluoride. We analyzed bone mineral density and the expression of genes related with transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) signaling and bone turnover in rats treated by different concentrations of fluoride with or without SB431542 in vivo. Moreover, MTT assay, alkaline phosphatase staining, RT-PCR, immunocytochemical analysis and western blot analysis were used to detect the influence on bone marrow stem cells (BMSC) after stimulating by varying concentration of fluoride with or without SB431542 in vitro. The in vivo study showed SB431542 treatment affected bone density and gene expression of rats, which indicated TGF-β1 and ALK5 might take part in fluoride-induced bone turnover and bone formation. The in vitro study showed low concentration of fluoride improved BMSC cells viability, alkaline phosphatase activity, and osteocalcin protein expression which were inhibited by high concentration of fluoride. The gene expression of Runx2 and ALK5 in cells increased after low concentration fluoride treatment which was also inhibited by high concentration of fluoride. Fluoride treatment inhibited gene and protein expression of Samd3 (except 1 mgF-/L). Compared with fluoride treatment alone, cells differentiation was inhibited with SB431542 treatment. Moreover, the expression of Runx2, ALK5 and Smad3 were influenced by SB431542 treatment. In conclusion, this preliminary study indicated that fluoride regulated osteoblastic TGFβ1 signaling in bone turnover and cells differentiation via ALK5.

Abstract
The role of insulin in the mechanism underlying the excessive fluoride that causes skeletal lesion was studied. The in vitro bone marrow stem cells (BMSC) collected from Kunming mice were exposed to varying concentrations of fluoride with or without insulin. The cell viability and early differentiation of BMSC co-treated with fluoride and insulin were measured by using cell counting kit-8 and Gomori modified calcium-cobalt method, respectively. We further investigated the in vivo effects of varying dose of fluoride on rats co-treated with streptozotocin (STZ). Wistar rats were divided into six groups which included normal control, 10 mg fluoride/kg day group, 20 mg fluoride/kg day group, STZ control, STZ+10 mg fluoride/kg day group, and STZ+20 mg fluoride/kg day group. The rats were administered with sodium fluoride (NaF) by gavage with water at doses 10 and 20 mg fluoride/kg day for 2 months. In a period of one month, half of rats in every group were treated with streptozotocin (STZ) once through intraperitoneal injection at 52 mg/kg body weight. The serum glucose, HbA1c, and insulin were determined. Bone mineral content and insulin release were assessed. The results showed insulin combined with fluoride stimulated BMSC cell viability in vitro. The bone mineral content reduced in rats treated with higher dose of fluoride and decreased immensely in rat co-treated with fluoride and STZ. Similarly, a combination treatment of a high dose of fluoride and STZ decreased insulin sensitivity and activity. To sum up, these data indicated fluoride influenced insulin release, activity, and sensitivity. Furthermore, the insulin state in vivo interfered in the osteogenesis in turn and implied there was a close relation between insulin and bone pathogenesis in the mechanism of fluoride toxicity.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the expression of classic bone markers and unfolded protein response (UPR) signaling factors through MC3T3-E1 cells exposed to varying concentrations of fluoride. Excessive fluoride exposure caused the skeletal disease. During this process, osteoblasts played a critical role in the advanced skeletal fluorosis. Recent literature showed that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and UPR were involved in numerous aspects of bone biology. Our results indicated that co-exposure of low-dose fluoride and mineral induction medium stimulated the expression of alkaline phosphatase, runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), and osterix in MC3T3-E1 cells. Accordingly, the expression of double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR)-like ER kinase, activating transcription factor 6, and X-box binding protein 1 also increased under the same fluoride exposure condition. The upregulation of three UPR factors was similar with osteogenic differentiation markers and transcription factors, which implied the relation between osteoblast differentiation and UPR pathways. Moreover, the role of UPR affecting osteoblast differentiation was investigated by decreasing the expression of binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP) mRNA through small interfering RNA (siRNA) technique. BiP knockdown led to suppress activation of UPR pathways. The deletion of BiP expression hardly stimulated the osteogenic cells differentiation but inhibited cell function under fluoride and mineralization induction exposure. In conclusion, fluoride had dual effect on osteogenic action. The UPR possibly involved in the mechanism of osteoblasts differentiation induced by fluoride.

Abstract
While drug-related periostitis has been known of for many years, the specific association of diffuse periostitis with voriconazole (most frequently in transplant patients) has only been recently explicitly addressed in the literature. Recognition of the radiologic and clinical manifestations of voriconazole-related periostitis is important for helping to narrow an otherwise broad differential diagnosis. We present two cases that illustrate different radiologic presentations of this painful cause of diffuse periostitis. Case 1 features a 60 year-old woman with a history of orthotopic heart transplant who was hospitalized for "full body pain" with progressively worsening bone tenderness involving the humeri, knees, femurs, hips, and hands. Case 2 describes a 48 year-old man with a history of acute lymphoblastic leukemia status post stem cell transplant who presented with diffuse arthralgias involving bilateral ankles, knees, wrists, and elbows.

Abstract
Bioactive glasses (BG) are suitable for bone regeneration applications as they bond with bone and can be tailored to release therapeutic ions. Fluoride, which is widely recognized to prevent dental caries, is efficacious in promoting bone formation and preventing osteoporosis-related fractures when administered at appropriate doses. To take advantage of these properties, we created BG incorporating increasing levels of fluoride whilst holding their silicate structure constant, and tested their effects on human osteoblasts in vitro. Our results demonstrate that, whilst cell proliferation was highest on low-fluoride-containing BG, markers for differentiation and mineralization were highest on BG with the highest fluoride contents, a likely effect of a combination of surface effects and ion release. Furthermore, osteoblasts exposed to the dissolution products of fluoride-containing BG or early doses of sodium fluoride showed increased alkaline phosphatase activity, a marker for bone mineralization, suggesting that fluoride can direct osteoblast differentiation. Taken together, these results suggest that BG that can release therapeutic levels of fluoride may find use in a range of bone regeneration applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigates the effect of the new synthetic bone grafting material, high pure-phase beta-tricalcium phosphate (Cerasorb(1) M, granule size 500-1000microm), on the osteogenesis process and proliferation marker in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and its regenerative effect in the periodontal intrabony defects in dogs. DESIGN The effect of Cerasorb(1) M (20 and 40mgml(-1) for 1 and 2 weeks) on the proliferation rate of BMSCs was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay on the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) by immunoblotting and on alkaline phosphatase level by colourimetric assay. The regenerative effect of Cerasorb(1) M in the periodontal intrabony defects in dogs was investigated by histological and immunohistochemical analysis after 3 and 6 months of grafting. RESULTS Incubation of BMSCs with Cerasorb(1) M for 2 weeks led to significant increase in cell proliferation rate, which was associated with increased PCNA. Cerasorb(1) M significantly increased the production of alkaline phosphatase as a marker for the osteogenic stromal lineage and for differentiation and bone formation in BMSCs after 2 weeks. In the histological features and immunohistochemical analysis of PCNA of the intrabony defects in dogs augmented with Cerasorb(1) M, osteoid tissue with a plate-like structure and cellular mesenchymal proliferation besides osteoid islands joined by bridges were observed after 3 months. Six months after the implantation, the Cerasorb(1) M granules were replaced by abundant new plate-like bone besides PCNA-enriched, small, oval-shaped mononuclear cells and multinucleated-giant cells that were attached to newly formed bones. No remains of the Cerasorb(1) M granules could be seen after 3 and 6 months with the newly formed plate-like bones and no histological sign of inflammatory reaction or formation of foreign-body granulomas. CONCLUSION Cerasorb(1) M may induce cell proliferation via induction of PCNA that may induce early osteogenesis and bone formation. Cerasorb(1) M regenerated the bone completely in intrabony defects and that this regeneration was highly associated with PCNA expression in different cell lineage.

Abstract
The mineral in bone is an impure hydroxyapatite, with carbonate as the chief minor substituent. Fluoride has been shown to stimulate osteoblastic activity and inhibit osteoclastic resorption in vitro. CO(3)- and F-substituted apatite (CFA) has been considered as potential bone graft material for orthopedic and dental applications. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of simultaneously incorporated CO(3) and F on the crystallographic physico-chemical properties of apatite. The results showed that increasing CO(3) and Na content in apatites with relatively constant F concentration caused a decrease in crystallite size and an increase in the extent of calcium release; increasing F content in apatites with relatively constant CO(3) concentration caused an increase in crystallite size and a decrease in the extent of Ca release. These findings suggest that CFAs as bone graft materials of desired solubility can be prepared by manipulating the relative concentrations of CO(3) and F incorporated in the apatite.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Fluoride has fallen into discredit due to the absence of an anti-fracture effect. However, in this meta-analysis, a fracture reducing potential was seen at low fluoride doses [< or =20 mg fluoride equivalents (152 mg monofluorophosphate/44 mg sodium fluoride)]: OR = 0.3, 95% CI: 0.1-0.9 for vertebral and OR = 0.5, 95% CI: 0.3-0.8 for non-vertebral fractures. INTRODUCTION Fluoride is incorporated into bone mineral and has an anabolic effect. However, the biomechanical competence of the newly formed bone may be reduced. METHODS A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and ISI web of science yielded 2,028 references. RESULTS Twenty-five eligible studies were identified. Spine BMD increased 7.9%, 95% CI: 5.4-10.5%, and hip BMD 2.1%, 95% CI: 0.9-3.4%. A meta-regression showed increasing spine BMD with increasing treatment duration (5.04 +/- 2.16%/year of treatment). Overall there was no significant effect on the risk of vertebral (OR = 0.8, 95% CI: 0.5-1.5) or non-vertebral fracture (OR = 0.8, 95% CI: 0.5-1.4). With a daily dose of < or =20 mg fluoride equivalents (152 mg monofluorophosphate/44 mg sodium fluoride), there was a statistically significant reduction in vertebral (OR = 0.3, 95% CI: 0.1-0.9) and non-vertebral (OR = 0.5, 95% CI: 0.3-0.8) fracture risk. With a daily dose >20 mg fluoride equivalents, there was no significant reduction in vertebral (OR = 1.3, 95% CI: 0.8-2.0) and non-vertebral (OR = 1.5, 95% CI: 0.8-2.8) fracture risk. CONCLUSIONS Fluoride treatment increases spine and hip BMD, depending on treatment duration. Overall there was no effect on hip or spine fracture risk. However, in subgroup analyses a low fluoride dose (< or =20 mg/day of fluoride equivalents) was associated with a significant reduction in fracture risk.

Abstract
This review aims to outline the effects of fluoride on the biological processes involved in the formation of tooth tissues, particularly dental enamel. Attention has been focused on mechanisms which, if compromised, could give rise to dental fluorosis. The literature is extensive and often confusing but a much clearer picture is emerging based on recent more detailed knowledge of odontogenesis. Opacity, characteristic of fluorotic enamel, results from incomplete apatite crystal growth. How this occurs is suggested by other changes brought about by fluoride. Matrix proteins, associated with the mineral phase, normally degraded and removed to permit final crystal growth, are to some extent retained in fluorotic tissue. Fluoride and magnesium concentrations increase while carbonate is reduced. Crystal surface morphology at the nano-scale is altered and functional ameloblast morphology at the maturation stage also changes. Fluoride incorporation into enamel apatite produces more stable crystals. Local supersaturation levels with regard to the fluoridated mineral will also be elevated facilitating crystal growth. Such changes in crystal chemistry and morphology, involving stronger ionic and hydrogen bonds, also lead to greater binding of modulating matrix proteins and proteolytic enzymes. This results in reduced degradation and enhanced retention of protein components in mature tissue. This is most likely responsible for porous fluorotic tissue, since matrix protein removal is necessary for unimpaired crystal growth. To resolve the outstanding problems of the role of cell changes and the precise reasons for protein retention more detailed studies will be required of alterations to cell function, effect on specific protein species and the nano-chemistry of the apatite crystal surfaces.

Abstract
Exposure to high fluoride concentrations in the immediate environment of the tissue is recognized to result in the post-translational modification of non-collagenous dentine extracellular matrix (ECM) components, potentially altering dentine mineralization. However, less is known about the effects of fluoride exposure on the morphology or metabolism of the cells associated with the dentine-pulp complex. This study examined the effects of fluoride exposure at defined concentrations on the cellular morphology and ECM synthetic activities of odontoblasts and pulpal fibroblasts by the culture of tooth sections from male Wistar rat incisors in Trowel-type cultures for up to 14 days, in the presence and absence of 6mM sodium fluoride. Histomorphometric analysis of the dentine-pulp complex of sodium fluoride-exposed tooth sections demonstrated no obvious gross morphological differences with respect to the odontoblasts and pulpal fibroblasts throughout the 14-day culture period, in comparison with unexposed tooth sections. No significant differences in odontoblast and pulpal fibroblast cell numbers were determined in the absence and presence of fluoride. Image analysis examination of odontoblast cytoplasmic:nuclear (C/N) ratios also showed no significant differences in fluoride-exposed and unexposed tooth sections, although reductions in the C/N ratios of pulpal fibroblasts were evident in fluoride-exposed sections at days 10 and 14. No significant differences in predentine width were observed in fluoride-exposed and unexposed tooth sections over the 14-day culture period. Autoradiography following [3H]proline incorporation into the dentine-pulp complex demonstrated inhibition of collagen synthesis, particularly by the odontoblasts in tooth sections exposed to 6mM sodium fluoride. These findings, in association with those from previous studies, imply that dentine ECM alterations may contribute to the altered mineralization of dentine during fluorosis, rather than secretory-related changes in odontoblast morphology.

Abstract
The fluoroaluminate (AlF(4)(-)) ion and sodium fluoride (NaF) have previously been shown to be bone cell mitogens. This study sought to determine whether the bone cell mitogenic action of AlF(4)(-) and/or NaF would involve the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) regulatory system. We evaluated the effect of mitogenic doses of AlF(4)(-) and NaF on the mRNA levels and the protein level (in conditioned media [CM]) of several components of the IGF system (i.e., IGF-2, IGF binding protein [IGFBP]-4, and IGFBP-5) in human TE85 osteosarcoma cells. Aluminum fluoride (AlF(3)) was included for comparison. NaF, AlF(3), and AlF(4)(-), each at 50-100 micromol/L, increased [3H]thymidine incorporation in TE85 cells. Mitogenic concentrations of AlF(3) and AlF(4)(-): (1) increased the mRNA (up to twofold after 24 h treatment) and protein (in CM) levels (up to 2.5-fold after 48 h treatment) of IGF-2; (2) increased the mRNA level (twofold) and the protein level in CM (up to threefold) of stimulatory IGFBP-5; and (3) either reduced slightly or had no effect on the mRNA and protein (in CM) levels of the inhibitory IGFBP-4. Conversely, mitogenic concentrations of NaF had no significant effects on the protein (in CM) or mRNA level of IGF-2, IGFBP-4, or IGFBP-5. The addition of an inhibitory concentration of IGFBP-4 completely abolished the bone cell mitogenic activity of AlF(3) and AlF(4)(-) but not that of NaF. The findings of this study provide strong evidence that the bone cell mitogenic activity of AlF(4)(-) and AlF(3), but not that of NaF, is mediated by the upregulation of the IGF regulatory system.

Abstract
This study compared the effects of cholera toxin (CTX) and pertussis toxin (PTX) on the actions of sodium fluoride (NaF) and those of aluminum fluoride (AlF3) on cell proliferation and differentiation, as well as tyrosine phosphorylation level of mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) in human bone cells. NaF and AlF3 each significantly stimulated the proliferation of human TE85 osteosarcoma cells, increased cellular alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and increased MAPK tyrosine phosphorylation level. CTX completely blocked the bone cell anabolic activities of both NaF and AlF3. While PTX (2 ng/ml) inhibited the bone cell actions of NaF, it had no significant effect on those of AlF3. Both CTX and PTX completely blocked the stimulatory action of AlF3 on MAPK tyrosine phosphorylation, but neither toxin had an effect on the action of NaF on MAPK tyrosine phosphorylation. In conclusion, PTX and CTX had contrasting effects on the anabolic bone cell actions of NaF and AlF3 actions. These findings argue against the hypothesis that the osteogenic activity of NaF is mediated via the formation of AlF3 in human TE85 osteosarcoma cells.

Abstract
The stability of titanium dental implants is determined by osseointegration. Bone is a dynamic tissue continuously remodeled through resorption and formation, processes controlled by local cytokine production. This study investigated osseotropic cytokine expression in gingival mucosa, in the intraforamina and inferior first molar zones, during rehabilitation with implant-retained overdentures. Specimens were taken from six patients prior to placement of implants in the intraforamina bone; at connection of healing abutments; and 4, 8, and 12 months after prosthetic anchorage. Through semi-quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain-reaction, the following constitutively expressed cytokines were found at first surgical stage: interleukin-1, -6, and -8; small amounts of interleukin-11; stem cell factor; and transforming growth factor-beta1, -beta2, and -beta3. From the connection of healing abutments to 12 months after prosthetic anchorage, transforming growth factor-beta1, -beta2, and -beta3 were markedly higher than initial values. Expression of interleukin-6 and -8 decreased 8 months after prosthetic anchorage, while that of interleukin-1 increased at 12 months. In cultured gingival fibroblasts, modulation of cytokine secretion was also time-dependent. Cell culture supernatants influenced osteoclast-like multinucleated cell formation in long-term human marrow culture or osteoblast function, depending on the cytokine profile produced. These results are consistent with functional contributions of cytokines to osseointegration and minimization of posterior edentulous zone bone resorption.

Abstract
The effect of the fluoride concentration in drinking water on the prevention of fractures related to osteoporosis has been questioned or contradicted in several recent studies. These studies have been mostly performed using water with artificially added fluoride, at the optimum level of about 1 mg/l. In the present study authors have investigated the effect of equal or greater fluoride concentrations (mean 1.45 mg/l) naturally present in waters supplied for human consumption to a population of 72.756 (Bracciano county), in comparison with a population of 126.189 (Avezzano county), supplied with low fluoride concentration water (mean 0.05 mg/l). The incidence of fractures in the years 1990 and 1991 was evaluated in the two areas (Bracciano and Avezzano), which are located in central Italy and where population have a similar life style, economic and social level and employment structure. The incidence data were obtained from the registers of the public hospital taken as a reference in each district. The authors noticed a significantly greater rate of fracture incidence at several parts of the body, in particular femur fractures (relative risks for males 4.28 and for females 2.64), in the population of the district of Avezzano than in the population of Bracciano. The greater concentration of fluoride in waters distributed for human consumption in Bracciano district seems to have the effect of protecting its inhabitants against fractures.

Abstract
Thrombocytopenia remains a significant cause of morbidity in cancer patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT), which consumes millions each year for frequent platelet transfusions. Using a novel culture system containing appropriate cytokine(s) on a layer of normal human osteoblasts, we investigated the expansion of early megakaryocytic progenitor cells while maintaining the number of CD34+ stem/progenitor marrow cells in an attempt to provide an effective solution for the problem of post-transplant thrombocytopenia. After seven days of culture, normal human osteoblasts alone without cytokines significantly increased the number of CD34+ and CD34+CD41+ marrow cells. Among the various cytokine combinations tested, both stem cell factor (SCF), interleukin 3 (IL-3)+IL-11 and SCF+IL-3+IL-11+thrombopoietin (TPO) emerged as the most effective in expanding early CD34+CD41+ megakaryocytic cells. Early CD34+CD41+ megakaryocytic cells have increased by 3.1- and 4.7-fold compared with day 7 control cultures, and by 62- and 94-fold, respectively, compared with day 0 input, respectively. Also, late CD41+ megakaryocytic cells have increased by 15.4- and 27.5-fold compared with day 7 control cultures in the presence of the same two combinations. In addition, the same cytokine combinations achieved 17.6- and 13.3-fold increases in the number of CD34+ marrow cells after the same seven days of culture on a layer of human osteoblasts. The combination (SCF+IL-3+IL-11+TPO) achieved the highest expansion of CD34+CD41+ early megakaryocytic cells from human marrow CD34+ cells reported so far in the literature. Recently, transplantation of SCF+IL-1+IL-3+TPO ex vivo expanded megakaryocytic progenitor cells as a supplement has been shown to accelerate platelet recovery by three to five days in mice. Therefore, the clinical use of the combination (SCF+IL-3+IL-11+TPO) for ex vivo expansion of CD34+ and megakaryocytic progenitor cells from a portion of the donor's marrow harvest is warranted in allogeneic BMT. Such a protocol would accelerate platelet recovery and shorten the period of hospitalization after allogeneic BMT. The present study has confirmed the role of human osteoblasts in supporting the proliferation and maintenance of human CD34+ stem/progenitor marrow cells. Given the facilitating role of osteoblasts shown previously in several allogeneic BMT studies in mice, it is possible to envisage a future role for donor osteoblasts in clinical BMT. Transplantation of the cultured donor osteoblasts together with the ex vivo expanded CD34+ marrow cells as a supplement might not only accelerate platelet recovery but also prevent acute graft-versus-host disease in allogeneic BMT. The present novel culture system should have useful clinical application in allogeneic BMT.

Abstract
Fluoride is an effective anabolic agent to increase spinal bone density by increasing bone formation, and at therapeutically relevant (i.e., micromolar) concentrations, it stimulates bone cell proliferation and activities in vitro and in vivo. However, the fluoride therapy of osteoporosis has been controversial, in large part because of a lack of consistent antifracture efficacy. However, information regarding the molecular mechanism of action of fluoride may improve its optimum and correct usage and may disclose potential targets for the development of new second generation drugs that might have a better efficacy and safety profile. Accordingly, this review will address the molecular mechanisms of the osteogenic action of fluoride. In this regard, we and other workers have proposed two competing models, both of which involve the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) mitogenic signal transduction pathway. Our model involves a fluoride inhibition of a unique fluoride-sensitive phosphotyrosine phosphatase (PTP) in osteoblasts, which results in a sustained increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation level of the key signaling proteins of the MAPK mitogenic transduction pathway, leading to the potentiation of the bone cell proliferation initiated by growth factors. The competing model proposes that fluoride acts in coordination with aluminum to form fluoroaluminate, which activates a pertussis toxin-sensitive Gi/o protein on bone cell membrane, leading to an activation of cellular protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs), which in turn leads to increases in the tyrosine phosphorylation of signaling proteins of the MAPK mitogenic signal transduction pathway, ultimately leading to a stimulation of cell proliferation. A benefit of our model, but not the other model, is that it accounts for all the unique properties of the osteogenic action of fluoride. These include the low effective fluoride dose, the skeletal tissue specificity, the requirement of PTK-activating growth factors, the sensitivity to changes in medium phosphate concentration, the preference for undifferentiated osteoblasts, and the involvement of the MAPK. Unlike fluoride, the mitogenic action of fluoroaluminate is not specific for skeletal cells. Moreover, the mitogenic action of fluoroaluminate shows several important, different characteristics than that of fluoride. Thus, it is likely that our model of a fluoride-sensitive PTP represents the actual molecular mechanism of the osteogenic action of fluoride.

Abstract
The effects of fluoride and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I on sodium-dependent (Na(d)) alanine and phosphate (Pi) transport were compared in a human osteosarcoma cell line, SAOS-2/B-10. Fluoride stimulated Na(d) alanine but not Pi uptake in a dose-dependent manner, whereas IGF-I stimulated both alanine and Na(d)Pi transport. IGF-I and low concentrations of fluoride stimulated Na(d) alanine transport rapidly. Genistein, an inhibitor of tyrosine kinase blocked IGF-I- but not fluoride-stimulated Na(d) alanine transport. The effects of fluoride and IGF-I were additive and not associated with corresponding changes in cell number or protein content. In conclusion, low concentrations of fluoride rapidly and selectively stimulate Na(d) alanine transport in SAOS-2 cells.

Abstract
Fluoride, at micromolar concentrations, stimulates bone cell proliferation in vitro. In this study, we sought to test whether fluoride at mitogenic doses increases the tyrosyl phosphorylation level and specific activity of a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) in human TE85 osteosarcoma cells. Analysis by immunoprecipitation with antiphosphotyrosine antibody followed by Western analysis using an anti-pan extracellular signal-regulated kinase antibody revealed that fluoride at the optimal mitogenic dose (i.e. 100 mumol/L) induced a time-dependent increase in the steady state tyrosyl phosphorylation level of p44mapk, but not p42mapk, with the maximal increase (4- to 13-fold) after 1-3 h fluoride treatment. The effect was sustained in that a 9-fold increase was seen after 12 h of the fluoride treatment. The sustained nature of the effect is consistent with an inhibition of dephosphorylation rather than a direct stimulation of phosphorylation. The fluoride effect on the tyrosyl phosphorylation level of p44mapk was dose dependent, with the optimal dose being 100 mumol/L fluoride. The mitogenic dose of fluoride also increased the specific activity and the in-gel kinase activity of p44mapk, but not that of p42mapk, in a time-dependent manner similar to the effect on the p44mapk tyrosyl phosphorylation level. Fluoride at the same micromolar doses did not increase cell proliferation, tyrosyl phosphorylation, or specific activity of any MAPK in human skin foreskin fibroblasts, which are fluoride-nonresponsive cells. Consistent with the interpretation that the effect of fluoride on the steady state tyrosyl phosphorylation level of p44mapk is a consequence of an inhibition of a phosphotyrosyl phosphatase (PTP), mitogenic doses of orthovanadate, a bone cell mitogen and a PTP inhibitor, also increased the steady state tyrosyl phosphorylation level of p44mapk, but not p42mapk, in a time-dependent sustained manner similar to that observed with fluoride. Together, these findings support the concept that inhibition of a PTP activity in bone cells could lead to an activation of MAPK activity.

Abstract
The in vitro osteogenic effects of fluoride have not always been consistently observed in human bone cells. The present study sought to test if dexamethasone (Dex) could potentiate the action of fluoride to increase the detectability of the stimulatory effects of fluoride on [3H]thymidine incorporation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) specific activity, collagen synthesis, and osteocalcin secretion in human TE85 osteosarcoma cells. Neither Dex at 10(-10)-10(-6) M or fluoride at a mitogenic dose (100 microM) had any consistent stimulatory effects on thymidine incorporation. When the cells were treated with both agents simultaneously, significant and highly reproducible stimulations were observed. The mitogenic effects of the two agents were confirmed with cell number counting. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed a significant interaction (P < 0.001) between fluoride and Dex on cell proliferation. The enhancing effect of Dex on [3H]thymidine incorporation was not due to a shift of the optimal dose response of fluoride. Though fluoride alone or Dex alone also had no consistent effect on ALP specific activity, the co-treatment with fluoride and Dex for 24 hours produced significant (P < 0.001, ANOVA) stimulation in ALP specific activity. Fluoride alone had no consistent effect on collagen synthesis and on 1, 25(OH)2D3-dependent osteocalcin secretion, whereas Dex treatment consistently inhibited these two osteoblastic parameters in a dose-dependent manner. However, both the collagen synthesis and osteocalcin secretion rates were significantly higher (P < 0.001 ANOVA for each) when the cells were co-treated with Dex and fluoride (100 microM) than when they were treated with Dex alone. Thus, these data indicate that the response in collagen synthesis and osteocalcin secretion to fluoride stimulation was more readily observed in the presence of Dex than in its absence. ANOVA analysis revealed that the interaction between fluoride and Dex on collagen synthesis, but not the 1,25(OH)2D3-dependent osteocalcin secretion, was significant (P < 0.02). In summary, we have demonstrated for the first time that in TE85 cells (1) Dex potentiated the effects of fluoride on cell proliferation, ALP specific activity, and collagen synthesis; (2) while Dex at 10(-7)-10(-6) M alone inhibited the collagen synthesis and at 10(-9)-10(-6) M reduced osteocalcin secretion, Dex at 10(-8)-10(-6) M significantly stimulated the proliferation of TE85 cells; and (3) Dex interacted with fluoride to increase the percentage of experiments showing an osteogenic action of fluoride. In conclusion, the in vitro osteogenic actions of fluoride in human TE85 cells are more consistently observed in the presence than in the absence of Dex.

Abstract
We have examined bone cells derived from iliac crest trabecular explants of 30 patients with idiopathic osteoporosis and 45 control subjects in order to determine whether intrinsic abnormalities in osteoblast function may contribute to the decreased bone formation observed in this disease. Bone cells isolated from all subjects expressed several in vitro characteristics of the osteoblast phenotype including adenylate cyclase responsiveness to parathyroid hormone (PTH) and prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), basal and 1,25(OH)2D3-stimulated alkaline phosphatase activity and osteocalcin production. Results were compared amongst three subject groups; young controls less than 40 years old, older controls over 40 years old, and osteoporotics. Osteoporotic cells were found in general to be fully active in vitro. There were no differences between osteoporotic and control cells in their basal levels of adenylate cyclase, or alkaline phosphatase, in their growth rates, or cell morphology. The cyclic AMP (cAMP) response to PTH was significantly lower in osteoporotic cells (71%, p < 0.01) and older control cells (64%, p < 0.005) relative to the response in cells from younger controls, suggesting that the decreased responsiveness in osteoporotic cells was due to subject age rather than the osteoporotic state. At the same time, the cAMP responses to PGE1 and cholera toxin were similar in cells from all three subject groups. The response to forskolin was reduced to about 40% in osteoporotic cells compared with controls, but this was not mirrored by similar differences in the responses to PTH, PGE1 or cholera toxin, suggesting that the availability of catalytic subunits is not rate-limiting in these cells. 1,25(OH)2D3-stimulated osteocalcin production was 220% higher in osteoporotics than in older controls, but the numbers tested were small and the difference did not reach significance. The one significant abnormality we observed in osteoporotic cells was in alkaline phosphatase activity: 1,25(OH)2D3-stimulated alkaline phosphatase activity was twofold higher in osteoporotics than in younger (p < 0.05), older (p < 0.05) and pooled controls (p < 0.025). The significance of this finding is unknown, but we postulate that it may reflect an intrinsic abnormality in osteoblast function in patients with idiopathic osteoporosis.

Abstract
In this study we tested the effects of sodium fluoride (NaF) in serum-free cultures of human marrow stromal osteoblast-like [hMS(OB)] cells. NaF (10(-5) M) stimulated hMS(OB) cell proliferation up to 220% of control cultures. NaF alone did not increase type I collagen production, but in the presence of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] (10(-9) M), NaF enhanced type I collagen production in a dose-dependent way to 300% of 1,25-(OH)2D3-treated control cultures. The production of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (bone gla protein, BGP) was also enhanced in the presence of 1,25-(OH)2D3 to 170 and 200%, respectively, of 1,25-(OH)2D3-treated controls. Our results suggest that 1,25-(OH)2D3 potentiates fluoride-mediated anabolism in hMS(OB) cell cultures and suggest that osteoblast precursors in bone marrow are targets for fluoride action.

Abstract
Osteoid nodules form in cultures of fetal rat calvarial (RC) cells grown in medium containing 10% FBS and 50 micrograms/ml of ascorbic acid. When 10 mM beta-glycerophosphate (beta-GP) is added, osteoid nodules mineralize in two phases: an initiation phase, which is dependent upon alkaline phosphatase activity for conversion of beta-GP to P(i), and a progression phase that proceeds independently of alkaline phosphatase activity and does not require exogenous phosphate. We have now used this system to investigate the effects of fluoride (F-) on mineralization. In cultures in which osteoid was formed and mineralization initiated in the presence of F-, a dose-dependent inhibition of the initiation of mineralization occurred over a concentration range of 25-500 microM F- (p < 0.001 in all cases). The initiation of mineralization was not inhibited if F- was removed from the cultures at the time when mineralization was initiated with beta-GP. In osteoid nodules grown in the absence of F-, addition of F- resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of the initiation of mineralization, with significant decreases in 45Ca uptake occurring at F- concentrations of 3 microM (p < 0.01) and higher. However, if F- was added to cultures after mineralization was initiated in the absence of F-, a stimulation of 45Ca uptake was observed at F- concentrations of 250 microM and above (p < 0.001). F- (1-1000 microM) did not affect the conversion of beta-GP to P(i) or alkaline phosphatase activity in the cultures.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The effects of fluoride on bone tissue are now well documented by in vivo histological studies performed on both human and animal bone biopsies and demonstrating an increase in osteoblast (OB) population. In order to elucidate whether the mechanism of action of fluoride on osteoblasts was direct or indirect, 14 three-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats were selected. Seven animals received 100 ppm fluoride as sodium fluoride (NaF) in drinking water for one month. The other animals, which did not receive fluoride, were considered as controls. At the end of the experiment, femurs and vertebrae were excised and osteoblastic cells were obtained after collagenase digestion separately from each animal. The osteoblastic cells derived from control and NaF-treated rats were exposed in vitro to 10(-5) M NaF. Alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity was measured, and the cellular proliferation was assessed by 3H-thymidine incorporation. Thymidine incorporation and AP activity were significantly higher in osteoblastic cells derived from NaF-treated rats than in cells obtained from control rats (p = 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively). In contrast, the osteoblast proliferation and activity were not modified after in vitro exposure to NaF in cells derived from control and NaF-treated rats. In conclusion, the function of osteoblasts was not modified after in vitro exposure to fluoride. In contrast, given in vivo to rats for one month, fluoride has a mitogenic effect on osteoblasts and stimulates their activity. These data emphasize the hypothesis that fluoride may act either on osteoprogenitor cells or through an indirect mechanism mediated by a cofactor.

Abstract
Previous in vitro studies have shown that the effect of fluoride to increase avian osteoblast-like cell proliferation was dependent on the phosphate concentration. In vitro studies have further revealed that fluoride could also have direct effects on osteoblast-like cells to increase phosphate uptake and transiently increase cytosolic calcium. The current studies were intended to determine whether fluoride could increase net 45Ca uptake by human osteosarcoma (SaOS-2) cells and, if so, whether those effects would also be phosphate dependent. The results of these studies indicate that fluoride increased net 45Ca uptake by SaOS-2 cells, with biphasic dose and time dependencies. After 30 minutes of exposure, net 45Ca uptake was increased to a greater extent by 50 microM fluoride (217 +/- 16% of control, P < 0.001) than by 200 microM fluoride; and the stimulatory effect of 100 microM fluoride on net 45Ca uptake was greater after 20 minutes (187 +/- 22% of control, P < 0.001) than after 60 minutes (122 +/- 7% of control, P < 0.05). These effects of fluoride to increase net 45Ca uptake were dependent on the phosphate concentration in the medium. Fluoride had no effect on net 45Ca uptake in medium containing 0.4 mM phosphate, but increased net 45Ca uptake in medium containing 1.2 or 2.0 mM phosphate (P < 0.005). As the phosphate concentration was increased, the biphasic fluoride dose-response curve was shifted to a lower range of fluoride concentrations.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The anabolic effects of sodium fluoride (NaF) on trabecular bone mass in osteoporosis is now well established. In vivo histologic studies performed in humans and other animals have shown that fluoride induces an increase in osteoblast number at the tissue level. To determine the mechanisms of action of fluoride on osteoblasts, we studied the effects of NaF on short- and long-term cultures of human osteoblastic cells derived from bone explants obtained from 21 donors. In short-term experiments, bone-derived cells were exposed to NaF for 4 days. At doses ranging from 10(-11) to 10(-5) M, NaF did not modify the alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity or osteocalcin secretion. In long-term experiments, half the bone samples from 15 donors were cultured for 4 months in the presence of 10(-5) M NaF and the other half were maintained in NaF-free medium. Observations by light and electron microscopy disclosed no morphologic modification in bone explants after 4 months of exposure to NaF, despite an increase in the bone fluoride content. After the first month of culture, slight but not significant increases were noted in 6 of 10 cases for AP activity, 4 of 10 for osteocalcin secretion, and 5 of 7 for [3H]thymidine incorporation. After 4 months of culture in the presence of NaF, no change in AP activity or cell proliferation was noted. In contrast, the osteocalcin secretion significantly decreased (p < 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Controversy exists regarding the effect of fluoride on human osteoblast proliferation. To learn more of the cellular action of fluoride, we chose the clonal osteoblast cell line HOS TE85 as a model system. In these phenotypically osteoblast-like cells, sodium fluoride stimulated [3H]thymidine incorporation in a dose-dependent manner over the concentration range 1 x 10(-5)-2 x 10(-4) M. The fluoride-induced stimulation of [3H]thymidine uptake was dependent on cell density, being optimal at subconfluent cell numbers. Stimulation of [3H]thymidine uptake was inhibited by anti-transforming growth factor beta but not by antibody to insulin-like growth factor I or beta 2-microglobulin. Transforming growth factor beta was shown to be a biphasic stimulator of [3H]thymidine uptake in HOS TE85, with maximal stimulation occurring at 0.5 nM transforming growth factor beta. In the presence of fluoride the cells were more sensitive to stimulation by this growth factor, with maximum effect occurring at 0.1 nM. Fluoride did not increase mRNA for transforming growth factor beta following either 8 or 24 h of exposure. We conclude that fluoride activates osteoblast proliferation by modulating the cellular sensitivity to transforming growth factor beta, a known stimulator of bone growth.

Abstract
To evaluate whether treatment with a mitogenic agent may increase bone formation and bone mass in osteopenia induced by estrogen deficiency, we determined the effect of oral fluoride treatment on bone and bone cells in ovariectomized rats. Sodium fluoride (NaF) was administered to 3-month-old ovariectomized rats 1 day after ovariectomy (OVX) for 1, 3, and 6 months. NaF was given in drinking water at the dose of 1 mg/kg body weight per day. Fluoride administration led to a partial prevention of the bone loss induced by OVX as shown by histologic analysis of tibial metaphysis and by evaluation of femoral calcium content. These beneficial effects of fluoride were more striking at early time points (1 and 3 months postovariectomy) than after 6 months of treatment. The increase in trabecular bone volume in OVX rats treated with fluoride was associated with a rise in the osteoblast surface, which was increased by 60, 72, and 235% at 1, 3, and 6 months postovariectomy compared to untreated OVX rats. In OVX rats and in sham-operated rats plasma osteocalcin was increased in correlation with the osteoblast surface. However, these two parameters were not correlated in OVX rats treated with fluoride. The heat-labile bone-specific alkaline phosphatase in plasma was decreased in OVX rats treated with fluoride compared to OVX rats, suggesting that both the number and the activity of osteoblasts were affected by NaF treatment. To examine the effect of fluoride on the osteocalcin production and the proliferative capacity of bone cells, osteoblastic cells were isolated by collagenase digestion from the bone surface of tibia in treated and untreated OVX rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
During continuous culture with serial passage, the human osteosarcoma cell line SaOS-2 showed a time-dependent decrease in skeletal alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. Because this was indicative of heterogeneity, subpopulations of SaOS-2 cells were isolated from replicate low-density cultures. The subpopulations were less heterogeneous and more stable (with respect to ALP) than the parent population. ALP specific activity in the subpopulations ranged from 0.05 to 2.3 U/mg protein, and cytochemical analyses indicated multiple steady-state levels of ALP activity per cell. The amount of ALP activity in SaOS-2 subpopulations was proportional to collagen production ([3H]proline incorporation into collagenase-digestible protein; r = .84, P less than .005), and to parathyroid hormone (PTH)-linked synthesis of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) (r = .88, P less than .01). From these data, we inferred that ALP activity in SaOS-2 cells can provide a useful index of the osteoblastic phenotype, and that ALP activity, collagen production, and PTH-linked adenylate cyclase were coordinately regulated in these osteoblast-like osteosarcoma cells (ie, selection of subpopulations for ALP activity coselected for collagen synthesis and PTH-linked synthesis of cAMP). Further comparative studies showed that micromolar fluoride concentrations stimulated cell proliferation ([3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA) in low-ALP SaOS-2 subpopulations, but not in high-ALP cells (P less than .001), and that this differential sensitivity to fluoride was associated with an inverse correlation between fluoride-sensitive acid phosphatase and ALP activities (r = -.91, P less than .001).
