Role of sclerostin deletion in bisphosphonate-induced osteonecrosis of the jaw. Bone 2024; 187:117200. [PMID: 39019131 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117200] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Revised: 07/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/19/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Bone resorption inhibitors, such as bisphosphonates (BP) and denosumab, are frequently used for the management of osteoporosis. Although both drugs reduce the risk of osteoporotic fractures, they are associated with a serious side effect known as medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). Sclerostin antibodies (romosozumab) increase bone formation and decrease the risk of osteoporotic fractures: however, their anti-resorptive effect increases ONJ. Thus, this study aimed to elucidate the role of sclerostin deletion in the development of MRONJ. METHODS Sclerostin knockout (SostΔ26/Δ26) mice were used to confirm the development of ONJ by performing tooth extractions. To confirm the role of sclerostin deficiency in a more ONJ-prone situation, we used the BP-induced ONJ model in combination with severe periodontitis to evaluate the development of ONJ and bone formation in wild-type (WT) and SostΔ26/Δ26 mice. Wound healing assay using gingival fibroblasts with or without sclerostin stimulation and tooth extraction socket healing were evaluated in the WT and SostΔ26/Δ26 mice. RESULTS ONJ was not detected in the extraction socket of SostΔ26/Δ26 mice. Moreover, the incidence of ONJ was significantly lower in the SostΔ26/Δ26 mice treated with BP compared to that of the WT mice. Osteogenic proteins, osteocalcin, and runt-related transcription factor 2, were expressed in the bone surface in SostΔ26/Δ26 mice. Recombinant sclerostin inhibited gingival fibroblast migration. The wound healing rate of the extraction socket was faster in SostΔ26/Δ26 mice than in WT mice. CONCLUSION Sclerostin deficiency did not cause ONJ and reduced the risk of developing BP-induced ONJ. Enhanced bone formation and wound healing were observed in the tooth extraction socket. The use of romosozumab (anti-sclerostin antibody) has proven to be safe for surgical procedures of the jaw.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a multifactorial immune-mediated disease exacerbated by dysregulated alveolar bone homeostasis. Timely intervention is crucial for disease management to prevent tooth loss. To successfully manage periodontitis, it is imperative to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in its pathogenesis to develop novel treatment modalities. Non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) such as subgingival instrumentation/debridement has been the underlying treatment strategy over the past decades. However, new NSPT approaches that target key signaling pathways regulating alveolar bone homeostasis have shown positive clinical outcomes. This narrative review aims to discuss endogenous bone homeostasis mechanisms impaired in periodontitis and highlight the clinical outcomes of preventive periodontal therapy to avoid invasive periodontal therapies. Although the anti-resorptive therapeutic adjuncts have demonstrated beneficial outcomes, adverse events have been reported. Diverse immunomodulatory therapies targeting the osteoblast/osteoclast (OB/OC) axis have shown promising outcomes in vivo. Future controlled randomized clinical trials (RCT) would help clinicians and patients in the selection of novel preventing therapies targeting key molecules to effectively treat or prevent periodontitis.

Braz Oral Res 2024; 38:e038. [PMID: 38747825 PMCID: PMC11376628 DOI: 10.1590/1807-3107bor-2024.vol38.0038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of this systematic review was to answer the following question: "Does alendronate, a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate, improve or impair alveolar socket healing after tooth extraction in animal models"? To this end, a systematic review of the literature was carried out in PubMed, Scopus, LILACS, Web of Science, as well as in the gray literature up to May 2023. Preclinical studies that evaluated alveolar healing after tooth extraction and the intake of sodium alendronate compared with placebo were included. Two investigators were responsible for screening the articles independently, extracting the data, and assessing their quality through the SYRCLE's RoB tool for randomized trials in animal studies. The study selection process, study characteristics, risk of bias in studies, impact of alendronate on bone healing, and certainty of evidence were described in text and table formats. Methodological differences among the studies were restricted to the synthesis methods. The synthesis of qualitative results followed the Synthesis Without Meta-analysis (SWiM) reporting guideline. From the 19 included studies, five were considered to have low risk, three were of unclear risk, and eleven presented a high risk of bias. The studies were considered heterogeneous regarding alendronate posology, including its dosage and route of administration. Furthermore, a variety of animal species, different age ranges, diverse teeth extracted, and exposure or not to ovariectomy contributed to the lack of parity of the selected studies. Our results indicated that alendronate monotherapy negatively affects the early phase of wound healing after tooth extraction in preclinical studies, suggesting that the bone resorption process after tooth extraction in animals treated with alendronate might impair the bone healing process of the extraction socket. In conclusion, alendronate administration restrains bone resorption, thereby delaying alveolar socket healing . Future studies should be conducted to validate these findings and to better understand the effects of alendronate therapy on oral tissues.

Healthcare (Basel) 2024; 12:457. [PMID: 38391832 PMCID: PMC10888159 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare12040457] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws is the most frequent complication in patients treated or in therapy with antiresorptive/antiangiogenetic drugs. The list of medications possibly related to MRONJ onset is constantly growing; we aimed to report on a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (Osimertinib) as possibly responsible for bilateral maxillary necrosis onset in the herein-described case. METHODS In June 2023, an oncologic patient with two different maxillary bone exposures was referred to our attention. His medical history revealed a two-year Denosumab regimen along with Osimertinib, the latter not suspended before teeth extractions. The clinicians performed a sequestrum removal and bone debridement after three cycles of antibiotic therapy. RESULTS Histologic examinations confirmed the clinical diagnosis of MRONJ excluding a metastatic occurrence, while complete mucosal healing was achieved after 15 days. CONCLUSIONS The patient suspended Denosumab for more than six months before teeth extraction for MRONJ prevention; hence, failure to discontinue Osimertinib led us to consider it a possible etiological factor. From a literature analysis, only one case has already been published reporting a possible Osimertinib-related occurrence of MRONJ in lung cancer patients. Our case is a further report that could be intended as an alert both for oncologists and dentists to share decisions about the oral management of such patients together, also informing them about this possible risk. Also, this report could trigger in the scientific community the necessity to evaluate further guidelines for similar doubtful cases in which the drug interaction, the mono-suspension, and the possible removable prosthesis-related additional trauma should be considered causes or con-causes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bisphosphonates are antiresorptive drugs used worldwide to treat systemic bone pathologies. This study aimed to assess the impact of zoledronic acid on the progression of induced apical periodontitis and the expression of cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-10, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in a mouse model. METHODS Sixteen female isogenic BALB/c mice 6 weeks of age were distributed into 2 groups: mice with induced apical periodontitis (the AP group, n = 8) and mice with induced apical periodontitis treated with zoledronic acid (the AP-ZA group, n = 8). The AP-ZA group received a dose of 125 μg/kg zoledronic acid diluted in sterile saline solution administered intraperitoneally once a week for 4 weeks before pulp exposure, whereas the AP group received only saline solution. Pulp exposures were performed on the maxillary first molars for the induction of apical periodontitis, and mice were euthanized after 7 and 21 days. The jaws were collected; scanned using micro-computed tomographic imaging; and processed for polymerase chain reaction analysis of IL-1β, IL-10, IL-6, and TNF-α. The Student t test was performed for parametric data, and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for nonparametric data. The level of significance was set at 5%. RESULTS Micro-computed tomographic imaging revealed higher bone resorption in the AP group compared with the AP-ZA group at both time points (P < .05). Real-time polymerase chain reaction demonstrated higher TNF-α expression in the AP group at both time points and higher IL-6 and IL-1β expression in the AP group at the 7- and 21-day time points, respectively, compared with the AP-ZA group (P < .05). No differences were observed regarding IL-10 expression between the groups. CONCLUSIONS Zoledronic acid had significant anti-inflammatory and antiresorptive effects on apical periodontitis in mice.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a rare but serious adverse effect of antiresorptive medications administered for control of osseous malignancy, osteoporosis, or other bone metabolic diseases. Despite being reported in the literature two decades ago, MRONJ etiology, pathophysiology, and progression remain largely unknown, and current nonoperative or operative treatment strategies are mostly empirical. Several hypotheses that attempt to explain the mechanisms of MRONJ pathogenesis have been proposed. However, none of these hypotheses alone is able to capture the complex mechanistic underpinnings of the disease. In this minireview, we aim to highlight key findings from clinical and translational studies and propose a unifying model for the pathogenesis and progression of MRONJ. We also identify aspects of the disease process that require further investigation and suggest areas for future research efforts toward calibrating methodologic approaches and validating experimental findings. © 2023 The Authors.

Intermittent parathyroid hormone enhances the healing of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw lesions in rice rats. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1179350. [PMID: 37404809 PMCID: PMC10315582 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1179350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a potentially severe adverse event in patients treated with antiresorptives. Management of MRONJ is challenging, and no non-antibiotic, established medical treatment exists. Intermittent parathyroid hormone (iPTH) has been used off-label to treat MRONJ with favorable results. However, its medical efficacy has rarely been substantiated in clinical or preclinical experiments. Using a validated rice rat, infection-based model of MRONJ, we evaluated the effects of iPTH on established MRONJ. We hypothesize that iPTH contributes to MRONJ resolution by enhancing alveolar bone turnover and healing oral soft tissues. Eighty-four rice rats began a standard rodent chow diet at age 4 weeks to induce localized periodontitis. Rats were simultaneously randomized to receive saline (vehicle, VEH) or zoledronic acid (ZOL, 80 μg/kg IV) every 4 weeks. Oral exams were conducted bi-weekly to assign a gross quadrant grade (GQG, 0-4) to evaluate any lesion at the lingual aspect of the interdental space between maxillary molar (M2) and M3. 14 of 20 VEH-treated rice rats (70%) developed maxillary localized periodontitis with GQG 2-3 after 30 ± 10 weeks of saline. Additionally, 40 of 64 ZOL-treated rice rats with periodontitis developed MRONJ-like lesions after 30 ± 10 weeks of ZOL treatment. Rice rats with localized periodontitis or MRONJ-like lesions were treated with saline or iPTH (40 μg/kg) subcutaneously (SC) 3 times/week For 6 weeks until euthanasia. We found that iPTH -treated ZOL rats had a lower prevalence of MRONJ (p < 0.001), with lower severity extent of oral lesions (p = 0.003) and percentage of empty osteocyte lacunae (p < 0.001). ZOL rats treated with iPTH displayed a higher osteoblast surface (p < 0.001), more osteoblasts (p < 0.001), higher osteoclast surface (p < 0.001) and more osteoclasts (p = 0.002) at alveolar bone surfaces than ZOL/VEH rats. Greater gingival epithelial thickness and epithelial cell proliferation rate was found in the oral mucosa and gingiva of ZOL/PTH rats than in ZOL/VEH rats (p < 0.001). Our data suggest that iPTH is an efficacious non-operative medicinal therapy that accelerates oral healing and enhances the resolution of MRONJ lesions in ZOL-treated rice rats.

Abstract
We describe the restorative treatment of an 86-year-old female patient who was referred to our specialist prosthodontics clinic. Due to secondary osteoporosis, she underwent oral antiresorptive therapy with ibandronic acid for 10 years. Although she was classified as a patient at increased risk of drug-induced osteonecrosis of the jaw, she eventually signed a consent form for fixed implant-supported prosthetic rehabilitation in her 4th sextant. However, after tooth extraction, the bone ridge was too small at the intended implant positions. Therefore, guided bone regeneration was performed with a computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing three-dimensional printed titanium mesh. Finally, a continuous augmented hard tissue ridge above 7 mm was found, and three implants were inserted. Eventually, after four months of submerged healing, the implants were loaded with single crowns. Now, the patient is seen regularly for supportive peri-implant therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to volumetrically assess changes in the periodontal microstructure under antiresorptive therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Microtomographic scans from a total of 9 Dutch Belted rabbits having been randomly allocated to either the intravenous administration of amino-bisphosphonate (zoledronic acid) (Za) (n = 5) or a negative control group (nZa) (n = 4) were obtained at 10 months following a repeated drug administration. A quantification of the periodontal space thickness (P.Th) of both maxillary and mandibular most posterior premolars, as well as of the 2nd molars was performed. Bone micromorphometry was assessed by means of bone volume per total volume (BV/TV), the bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular number (Tb.N), bone surface (BS), and the specific bone surface (BS/BV). RESULTS Za was associated with significantly higher P.Th (P = 0.010), which was most pronounced in the upper jaw. Bone micromorphometry revealed no significant differences among the two groups, i.e., Za and nZa, for all the investigated parameters. CONCLUSIONS Volumetric analysis revealed that antiresorptive therapy was associated with periodontal space widening, whereas major effects on the bone micro-morphology could not be observed. CLINICAL RELEVANCE A deep understanding of specific periodontal and alveolar bone alterations in patients under antiresorptive therapy might help to prevent the onset of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Abstract
One of the most prominent characteristics of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw(BRONJ) is its site-specificity. Osteonecrosis tends to occur specifically in maxillofacial bones, in spite of a systemic administration of the medicine. Previous studies suggested rich blood supply and fast bone turnover might be reasons for BRONJ. Yet, a sound scientific basis explaining its occurrence is still lacking. The present study aimed to explore the role of Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), an important oral pathogen, on the site-specificity of bisphosphonate-induced osteonecrosis and to elucidate its underlying mechanism. Mice were intraperitoneally injected with zoledronic acid (ZA) or saline for 3 weeks. In the third week, the right mandibular first molars were extracted and circular bone defects with a diameter of 1 mm were created in right femurs. After the operation, drug administration was continued, and P. gingivalis suspension was applied to the oral cavities and femur defects. The mice were killed after four or eight weeks postoperatively. The right mandibles and femurs were harvested for micro-CT and histological analyses. A poor healing of bone defects of both jaws and femurs was noted in mice injected with both ZA and P. gingivalis. Micro-CT analysis showed a decreased bone volume, and histological staining showed an increased number of empty osteocyte lacunae, a decreased collagen regeneration, an increased inflammatory infiltration and a decreased number of osteoclasts. In addition, the left femurs were collected for isolation of osteoclast precursors (OCPs). The osteoclastogenesis potential of OCPs was analyzed in vitro. OCPs extracted from mice of ZA-treated groups were shown to have a lower osteoclast differentiation potential and the expression level of related genes and proteins was declined. In conclusion, we established a mouse model of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of both the jaw and femur. P. gingivalis could inhibit the healing of femur defects under the administration of ZA. These findings suggest that P. gingivalis in the oral cavity might be one of the steering compounds for BRONJ to occur.

Pharmacological Therapies for the Management of Inflammatory Bone Resorption in Periodontal Disease: A Review of Preclinical Studies. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:5832009. [PMID: 35547360 PMCID: PMC9085331 DOI: 10.1155/2022/5832009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2022] [Revised: 03/28/2022] [Accepted: 04/13/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Periodontitis, a highly prevalent multicausal chronic inflammatory and destructive disease, develops as a result of complex host-parasite interactions. Dysbiotic bacterial biofilm in contact with the gingival tissues initiates a cascade of inflammatory events, mediated and modulated by the host's immune response, which is characterized by increased expression of several inflammatory mediators such as cytokines and chemokines in the connective tissue. If periodontal disease (PD) is left untreated, it results in the destruction of the supporting tissues around the teeth, including periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone, which lead to a wide range of disabilities and poor quality of life, thus imposing significant burdens. This process depends on the differentiation and activity of osteoclasts, the cells responsible for reabsorbing the bone tissue. Therefore, the inhibition of differentiation or activity of these cells is a promising strategy for controlling bone resorption. Several pharmacological drugs that target osteoclasts and inflammatory cells with immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects, such as bisphosphonates, anti-RANK-L antibody, strontium ranelate, cathepsin inhibitors, curcumin, flavonoids, specialized proresolving mediators, and probiotics, were already described to manage inflammatory bone resorption during experimental PD progression in preclinical studies. Meantime, a growing number of studies have described the beneficial effects of herbal products in inhibiting bone resorption in experimental PD. Therefore, this review summarizes the role of several pharmacological drugs used for PD prevention and treatment and highlights the targeted action of all those drugs with antiresorptive properties. In addition, our review provides a timely and critical appraisal for the scientific rationale use of the antiresorptive and immunomodulatory medications in preclinical studies, which will help to understand the basis for its clinical application.

Abstract
Strategies for management of patients with, or at risk for, medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) - formerly referred to as bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ)-were set forth in the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) position papers in 2007, 2009 and 2014. The position papers were developed by a committee appointed by the AAOMS Board of Trustees and comprising clinicians with extensive experience in caring for these patients, as well as clinical and basic science researchers. The knowledge base and experience in addressing MRONJ continues to evolve and expand, necessitating modifications and refinements to the previous position papers. Three members of the AAOMS Committee on Oral, Head, and Neck Oncologic and Reconstructive Surgery (COHNORS) and three authors of the 2014 position paper were appointed to serve as a working group to analyze the current literature and revise the guidance as indicated to reflect current knowledge in this field. This update contains revisions to diagnosis and management strategies and highlights the current research status. AAOMS maintains that it is vitally important for this information to be disseminated to other relevant healthcare professionals and organizations.

Calcif Tissue Int 2022; 110:380-392. [PMID: 34580750 DOI: 10.1007/s00223-021-00916-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Accepted: 09/18/2021] [Indexed: 01/30/2023]
Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a serious adverse event that is associated with antiresorptive agents, and it manifests as bone exposure in the maxillofacial region. Previous clinical reports suggest that mechanical trauma would trigger ONJ in a manner that is similar to tooth extractions. To the best of our knowledge, there have been few detailed pathophysiological investigations of the mechanisms by which occlusal/mechanical trauma influences ONJ. Here, we developed a novel mouse model that exhibits ONJ following experimental hyperocclusion and nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate (N-BP) treatment. This in vivo model exhibited ONJ in alveolar bone, particularly in the mandible. Moreover, the experimental hyperocclusion induced remarkable alveolar bone resorption in both mouse mandible and maxilla, whereas N-BP treatment completely prevented alveolar bone resorption. In this study, we also modeled trauma by exposing clumps of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)/extracellular matrix complex to hydrostatic pressure in combination with N-BP. Hydrostatic pressure loading induced lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release by calcified cell clumps that were differentiated from MSCs; this LDH release was enhanced by N-BP priming. These in vivo and in vitro models may contribute further insights into the effect of excessive mechanical loading on ONJ onset in patients with occlusal trauma.

Abstract
Invasive dental treatment such as tooth extraction following treatment with strong anti-bone resorptive agents, including bisphosphonates and denosumab, reportedly promotes osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) at the extraction site, but strategies to prevent ONJ remain unclear. Here we show that in mice, administration of either active vitamin D analogues, antibiotics or anti-inflammatory agents can prevent ONJ development induced by tooth extraction during treatment with the bisphosphonate zoledronate. Specifically, tooth extraction during treatment with zoledronate induced osteonecrosis in mice, but administration of either 1,25(OH)2D3 or ED71, both active vitamin D analogues, significantly antagonized osteonecrosis development, even under continuous zoledronate treatment. 1,25(OH)2D3 or ED71 administration also significantly inhibited osteocyte apoptosis induced by tooth extraction and bisphosphonate treatment. Administration of either active vitamin D analogue significantly inhibited elevation of serum inflammatory cytokine levels in mice in response to injection of lipopolysaccharide, an infection mimetic. Furthermore, administration of either anti-inflammatory or antibiotic reagents significantly blocked ONJ development following tooth extraction and zoledronate treatment. These findings suggest that administration of active vitamin D, anti-inflammatory agents or antibiotics could prevent ONJ development induced by tooth extraction in patients treated with zoledronate.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a potentially severe, debilitating condition affecting patients with cancer and patients with osteoporosis who have been treated with powerful antiresorptives (pARs) or angiogenesis inhibitors (AgIs). Oral risk factors associated with the development of MRONJ include tooth extraction and inflammatory dental disease (e.g., periodontitis, periapical infection). In bone tissues, osteocytes play a bidirectional role in which they not only act as the "receiver" of systemic signals from blood vessels, such as hormones and drugs, or local signals from the mineralized matrix as it is deformed, but they also play a critical role as "transmitter" of signals to the cells that execute bone modeling and remodeling (osteoclasts, osteoblasts and lining cells). When the survival capacity of osteocytes is overwhelmed, they can die. Osteocyte death has been associated with several pathological conditions. Whereas the causes and mechanisms of osteocyte death have been studied in conditions like osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), few studies of the causes and mechanisms of osteocyte death have been done in MRONJ. The three forms of cell death that affect most of the different cells in the body (apoptosis, autophagy, and necrosis) have been recognized in osteocytes. Notably, necroptosis, a form of regulated cell death with "a necrotic cell death phenotype," has also been identified as a form of cell death in osteocytes under certain pathologic conditions. Improving the understanding of osteocyte death in MRONJ may be critical for preventing disease and developing treatment approaches. In this review, we intend to provide insight into the biology of osteocytes, cell death, in general, and osteocyte death, in particular, and discuss hypothetical mechanisms involved in osteocyte death associated with MRONJ.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a potentially severe adverse event affecting patients with cancer and patients with osteoporosis who have been treated with powerful antiresorptives (pARs) or angiogenesis inhibitors (AgIs). pARs, including nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (N-BPs; e.g., zoledronic acid, alendronate) and anti-RANKL antibodies (e.g., denosumab), are used to manage bone metastases in patients with cancer or to prevent fragility fractures in patients with osteoporosis. Though significant advances have been made in understanding MRONJ, its pathophysiology is still not fully elucidated. Multiple species have been used in preclinical MRONJ research, including the rat, mouse, rice rat, rabbit, dog, sheep, and pig. Animal research has contributed immensely to advancing the MRONJ field, particularly, but not limited to, in developing models and investigating risk factors that were first observed in humans. MRONJ models have been developed using clinically relevant doses of systemic risk factors, like N-BPs, anti-RANKL antibodies, or AgIs. Specific local oral risk factors first noted in humans, including tooth extraction and inflammatory dental disease (e.g., periodontitis, periapical infection, etc.), were then added. Research in rodents, particularly the rat, and, to some extent, the mouse, across multiple laboratories, has contributed to establishing multiple relevant and complementary preclinical models. Models in larger species produced accurate clinical and histopathologic outcomes suggesting a potential role for confirming specific crucial findings from rodent research. We view the current state of animal models for MRONJ as good. The rodent models are now reliable enough to produce large numbers of MRONJ cases that could be applied in experiments testing treatment modalities. The course of MRONJ, including stage 0 MRONJ, is characterized well enough that basic studies of the molecular or enzyme-level findings in different MRONJ stages are possible. This review provides a current overview of the existing models of MRONJ, their more significant features and findings, and important instances of their application in preclinical research.

Abstract
Periodontal disease (PD) is a polymicrobial chronic inflammatory condition of the supporting tissues around the teeth, leading to the destruction of surrounding connective tissue. During the progression of PD, osteoclasts play a crucial role in the resorption of alveolar bone that eventually leads to the loss of teeth if the PD is left untreated. Therefore, the development of antiresorptive therapies targeting bone-resorbing cells will significantly benefit the treatment of PD. Here, we demonstrate the inhibitory effect of CsinCPI-2, a novel cysteine peptidase inhibitor from the orange tree, on periodontitis-induced inflammation, alveolar bone loss, and osteoclast differentiation. Using the ligature-induced periodontitis model in mice, we show that treatment with CsinCPI-2 (0.8 µg/g of body weight) significantly reduced inflammatory cell infiltrate in the connective tissue and prevented the loss of alveolar bone mass (BV/TV) caused by PD, effects associated with diminished numbers of TRAP-positive multinucleated cells. Furthermore, CsinCPI-2 significantly downregulated the numbers of inflammatory cells expressing CD3, CD45, MAC387, and IL-1β. In vitro, CsinCPI-2 inhibited RANKL-induced TRAP+ multinucleated osteoclast formation in mouse bone marrow macrophage cultures in a concentration-dependent manner. This effect was not due to cytotoxicity, as demonstrated by the MTT assay. CsinCPI-2 inhibited RANKL-induced mRNA expression of Acp5, Calcr, and Ctsk, as well as the RANKL-induced upregulation of Nfatc1, a crucial transcription factor for osteoclast differentiation. Based on our findings, CsinCPI-2 prevents bone loss induced by PD by controlling the inflammatory process and acting directly on osteoclastogenesis, suggesting an interesting potential for CsinCPI-2 in the strategy for PD treatment.

Abstract
Medication related osteonecrosis of the Jaws (MRONJ) is a severe complication of antiresorptive and anti-angiogenic medications. Osteoclast inhibition is central in MRONJ pathogenesis. Here, we investigated if local application of RANKL (a key molecule in osteoclast activation) could enhance osteoclast generation and improve extraction socket healing in the presence of bisphosphonates. Thirty Wistar-Han rats received one saline or 66 μg/kg zoledronate (ZA) i.p. dose before surgery. A week later, mandibular molars were extracted bilaterally. Collagen tapes infused with water or RANKL were placed in the extraction sockets of 60 hemimandibles of veh (veh/RANKL-, veh/RANKL+) or ZA treated rats (ZA/RANKL-, ZA/RANKL+). Rats were euthanized 3 or 12 days after surgery. Animals euthanized at 12 days received two additional veh or ZA injections. Clinical, radiographic and histologic assessments were performed. Visually, at the 3-day timepoint, no sockets demonstrated complete healing. At the 12-day timepoint, sockets of veh/RANKL- and veh/RANKL+ rats showed intact mucosa, while mucosal defects were noted in ZA/RANKL- rats. Importantly, ZA/RANKL+ sockets showed absence of bone exposure. RANKL delivery increased bone healing in the ZA/RANKL+ sites 12 days after extraction compared to the ZA/RANKL- sites. Histologically, at the 3-day timepoint, ZA/RANKL- sockets demonstrated extensive bone exposure and osteonecrosis. In contrast, ZA/RANKL+ rats showed granulation tissue coverage and significantly reduced osteonecrosis, similar to the veh groups. Importantly, in the ZA/RANKL+ group, osteoclasts attached to the bone surface and osteoclast numbers were higher compared to ZA/RANKL- sites. At the 12-day timepoint, persistent osteonecrosis and bone exposure were detected in the sockets of ZA/RANKL- animals. Contrary, ZA/RANKL+ rats demonstrated socket epithelialization and reduced osteonecrosis. Significantly more total and bony attached osteoclasts persisted in the ZA/RANKL+ vs the ZA/RANKL- group. We present a novel approach towards improving socket healing, in the presence of ZA, by enhancing osteoclastic numbers and attachment through local RANKL application. Our approach is clinically applicable and could improve treatment outcomes of patients on high-dose ZA therapy.

Preventing or controlling periodontitis reduces the occurrence of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) in rice rats (Oryzomys palustris). Bone 2021; 145:115866. [PMID: 33515777 PMCID: PMC8265021 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2021.115866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2020] [Revised: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 01/24/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is an adverse event that requires association of both systemic risk factors, such as powerful anti-resorptives (pARs; e.g. zoledronic acid [ZOL]), and local oral risk factors (e.g. tooth extraction, periodontitis). Whereas optimal oral health prior to initiate pARs is recognized as critically important for minimizing ONJ risk, the efficacy of preventive/maintenance measures in patients who are taking pARs is understudied. Rice rats fed a standard diet (STD), rich in insoluble fiber, develop localized periodontitis. STD-rats with localized periodontitis treated with ZOL for 18-24 wk develop ONJ. Hence, we hypothesized that controlling/preventing localized periodontitis in the ZOL-treated rats, reduces ONJ occurrence. METHODS We used two approaches to attempt reducing periodontitis prevalence: 1) periodontal cleaning (PC); and 2) replacing the STD-diet with a nutritionally-equivalent diet high in soluble fiber (SF). 75 four-week-old male rats were weight-randomized into five groups (n = 15) in a 24-week experiment. Three groups ate the STD-diet and two the high SF-diet. STD-diet groups received intravenous (IV) vehicle (VEH) q4wks (STD + VEH), 80 μg/kg ZOL q4wks IV (STD + ZOL), or ZOL plus PC q2wks (STD + ZOL + PC). The SF-diet groups received VEH (SF + VEH) or ZOL (SF + ZOL). Jaws were processed for histopathology and evaluated for ONJ prevalence and tissue-level periodontitis. RESULTS 1) 40% of STD + VEH rats developed maxillary localized periodontitis with no ONJ; 2) 50% of STD + ZOL rats developed ONJ; 3) 7% of STD + ZOL + PC rats developed ONJ (p < 0.01 vs. STD + ZOL); and 4) one SF + ZOL rat developed localized periodontitis, and no SF + VEH or SF + ZOL rats developed ONJ (p < 0.001 vs. STD + ZOL). CONCLUSIONS 1) Periodontal cleaning in ZOL-treated rats decreases localized periodontitis severity and reduces ONJ prevalence; and 2) feeding a SF-diet to ZOL-treated rats reduces both incidence of localized periodontitis and ONJ. Our data indicates strong oral microbial community shifts according to oral health condition and trends in the shifts associated with diet.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ), a severe side effect of antiresorptive medications, is characterized by exposed, nonhealing bone in the oral cavity. Treatment options for ONJ range from management of symptomology to surgical resection of the affected area. Antiresorptive discontinuation, often termed a "drug holiday," has been used for managing ONJ patients. Antiresorptives can be discontinued prior to oral surgical procedures, such as tooth extraction, to prevent ONJ development or in patients with established ONJ to accelerate healing. Here, our objective was to test these clinical scenarios using the potent bisphosphonate, zoledronic acid (ZA), and the denosumab surrogate for rodents, OPG-Fc, in a rat model of ONJ. Animals were pretreated with antiresorptives or saline, after which we induced ONJ using periapical disease and tooth extraction. In our first experimental design, antiresorptives were discontinued 1 wk prior to tooth extraction, and animals were evaluated 4 wk later for clinical, radiographic, and histologic features of ONJ. In the second experiment, ONJ was established and antiresorptives were discontinued for 4 wk. Discontinuation of OPG-Fc, but not ZA, prior to tooth extraction ameliorated subsequent ONJ development. In contrast, discontinuation of either ZA or OPG-Fc in rats with established ONJ did not lead to ONJ resolution. In conclusion, our findings suggest that antiresorptive discontinuation is dependent on both the type of antiresorptive and the timing of discontinuation.

Alendronate Impairs Healing of Calvaria Critical Defects After Bone Graft With Different Bone Substitute Materials. J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2020; 78:2184-2194. [PMID: 32961127 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2020.08.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2020] [Revised: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 08/24/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this preclinical study was to evaluate the healing of critical-sized defects (CSDs) in the calvarial bone of rats grafted with deproteinized bovine bone graft (DBB) and with a combination of hydroxyapatite (HA) and β-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) and bisphosphonate treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-four animals were randomly divided into 2 groups according to the type of solution administered: the control group (CTR, saline solution) and the test group (alendronate [ALD]; sodium alendronate-50 μg/kg/day). Medications were administered via oral gavage starting 15 days before the surgical procedure until the end of the experiment. A CSD (5 mm in diameter) was made in the calvaria of each animal, and the rats were randomly allocated to 3 subgroups according to the biomaterial used to fill the defect: coagulum, DBB, and HA/TCP. The animals were sacrificed 15 and 60 days after the surgical procedure (n = 7 animals/period/subgroup). Microcomputed tomography was used to evaluate the percentage of mineralized tissues (volume). The amount of newly formed bone and remaining bone substitute material in the calvaria were analyzed by histomorphometry. RESULTS There were no differences between the CTR and ALD groups with regard to the volume of mineralized tissues. The DBB and HA/TCP subgroups of CTR animals presented a significant increase in newly formed bone compared with these subgroups of ALD animals after 60 days of healing. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, our findings indicate that the use of oral ALD reduced bone formation in CSD in the calvaria of rats grafted with DBB and HA/TCP.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw is an oral complication in cancer patients being treated with either antiresorptive or antiangiogenic drugs. The first reports of MRONJ were published in 2003. Hundreds of manuscripts have been published in the medical and dental literature describing the complication, clinical and radiographic signs and symptoms, possible pathophysiology, and management. Despite this extensive literature, the pathobiological mechanisms by which medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw develops have not yet been fully delineated. The aim of this manuscript is to present current knowledge about the complication ragarding to the definition, known risk factors, and clinical management recommendations. Based on this current state of the science, we also propose research directions that have potential to enhance the management of future oncology patients who are receiving these agents.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The main aim is to identify, by means of different imaging modalities, the early bone changes in patients "at risk" and in stage 0 MRONJ. MATERIALS AND METHODS A search of the literature was performed on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases, until June 9, 2020. No language or year restrictions were applied. Screening of the articles, data collection, and qualitative analysis was done. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used for observational studies, and the Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation's (SYRCLE) risk of bias tool for the animal studies. RESULTS A total of 1188 articles were found, from which 47 were considered eligible, whereas 42 were suitable for the qualitative analysis. They correspond to 39 human studies and 8 animal studies. Radiographic findings such as bone sclerosis, osteolytic areas, thickening of lamina dura, persisting alveolar socket, periapical radiolucency, thicker mandibular cortex, widening of the periodontal ligament space, periodontal bone loss, and enhancement of the mandibular canal were identified as early bone changes due to antiresorptive therapy. All those findings were also reported later in Stage 0 patients. CONCLUSION The main limitations of these results are the lack of prospective data and comparisons groups; therefore, careful interpretation should be made. It is a fact that radiographic findings are present in antiresorptive-treated patients, but the precise timepoint of occurrence, their relation to the posology, and potential risk to develop MRONJ are not clear. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The importance of a baseline radiographic diagnosis for antiresorptive-treated patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the long-term alendronate administration on bone healing in defects created in rat calvarias. MATERIALS AND METHODS Female Wistar rats were randomly distributed into 2 groups: Control (CTL): animals received saline solution once a week; and Alendronate (ALD): rats underwent alendronate treatment (1 mg/kg/weekly). After 120 days from the commencement of treatment, a critical size defect was created in all animals, and 10 animals from each group were sacrificed at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 45 and 60-days after the defect creation. On the day of sacrifice, urine and blood samples were collected for determination of the serum levels of bone resorption and formation markers by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, and the urinary concentration of deoxypyridinoline. Bone mineral density (BMD) in the femurs, descriptive histology, tartrate-resistant acid-phosphatase staining and immunohistochemical analyzes were assessed in the calvaria. RESULTS Alendronate group showed increased BMD compared to the test group. The concentration of C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen and deoxypyridinoline decreased significantly, and the concentration of aminoterminal propeptide of procollagen type 1 and osteocalcin were significant lower in the alendronate group. Immunohistochemical analysis showed significant downregulation in the inducible nitric oxide synthase, runt-related transcription factor-2, cathepsin-K and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand expression in the alendronate group. Vascular endothelial growth factor and osteopontin were upregulated in the later periods of alendronate group. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that long-term treatment with alendronate did not compromise the repair processing of critical size defects in rat.

Abstract
It is well established that alterations in phosphate metabolism have a profound effect on hard and soft tissues of the oral cavity. The present-day clinical form of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) was preceded by phosphorus necrosis of the jaw, ca. 1860. The subsequent removal of yellow phosphorus from matches in the early 20th century saw a parallel decline in "phossy jaw" until the early 2000s, when similar reports of unusual jaw bone necrosis began to appear in the literature describing jaw necrosis in patients undergoing chemotherapy and concomitant steroid and bisphosphonate treatment. Today, the potential side effect of ONJ associated with medications that block osteoclast activity (antiresorptive) is well known, though the mechanism remains unclear and the management and outcomes are often unsatisfactory. Much of the existing literature has focused on the continuing concerns of appropriate use of bisphosphonates and other antiresorptive medications, the incomplete or underdeveloped research on ONJ, and the use of drugs with anabolic potential for treatment of osteoporosis. While recognizing that ONJ is a rare occurrence and ONJ-associated medications play an important role in fracture risk reduction in osteoporotic patients, evidence to date suggests that health care providers can lower the risk further by dental evaluations and care prior to initiating antiresorptive therapies and by monitoring dental health during and after treatment. This review describes the current clinical management guidelines for ONJ, the critical role of dental-medical management in mitigating risks, and the current understanding of the effects of predominantly osteoclast-modulating drugs on bone homeostasis.

Abstract
Lipoproteins are important bacterial immunostimulating molecules capable of inducing receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (RANKL) and osteoclast formation in vitro and in vivo . Although these molecules are present in periodontopathogenic bacteria, their role in periodontitis is not known. In this study, we used Pam2CSK4 (PAM2), a synthetic molecule that mimics bacterial lipoprotein, to investigate the effects of lipoproteins on periodontitis in mice. C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into three experimental groups: 1) Negative control group: animals received vehicle injection; 2) Positive control group: animals received injection of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS); 3) PAM2 group: animals received PAM2 injection. All the injections were performed bilaterally every other day into the palatal mucosa between first and second molars. After twenty-four days, the animals were euthanized to assess alveolar bone volume (micro-CT), cellular and extracellular composition in the gingiva (stereometric analysis), and osteoclast numbers (TRAP staining). Treatment with either PAM2 or LPS induced gingival inflammation, as demonstrated by increased infiltration of inflammatory cells and enhanced angiogenesis, associated with a smaller number of fibroblasts and decreased extracellular matrix. Importantly, treatment not only with LPS but also with PAM2 resulted in a larger number of TRAP+ multinucleated osteoclasts and significant loss of alveolar bone. Collectively, our data demonstrate that PAM2 can induce gingival inflammation and bone loss in mice, broadening the avenues of investigation into the role of lipoproteins in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Angiogenesis inhibitors (AgI) are commonly used in combination chemotherapy protocols to treat cancer, and have been linked to osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ). However, it is unknown if AgI therapy alone is sufficient to induce ONJ. We have previously established an ONJ model in rice rats with localized periodontitis that receive zoledronic acid (ZOL). The purpose of this study was to use this model to determine the role of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor A (anti-VEGF) antibody treatment of rice rats with localized maxillary periodontitis. We hypothesized that rice rats with localized maxillary periodontitis given anti-VEGF monotherapy will develop oral lesions that resemble ONJ, defined by exposed, necrotic alveolar bone. METHODS At age 4 weeks, 45 male rice rats were randomized into three groups (n = 15): 1) VEH (saline), 2) ZOL (80 μg/kg body weight, intravenously once monthly), and 3) anti-VEGF (5 mg B20-4.1.1/kg body weight, subcutaneously twice weekly). After 24 weeks, rats were euthanized, jaws were excised and a high-resolution photograph of each quadrant was taken to assign a severity grade based on gross appearance. Jaws were then fixed, scanned by MicroCT, decalcified and sectioned for histopathologic and immunohistochemical analyses. RESULTS 40-80% of the rats in the three groups developed gross oral lesions. 50% of ZOL rats developed ONJ. In contrast, 80% of the anti-VEGF rats developed destructive advanced periodontitis that was characterized by extreme alveolar bone loss and fibrosis. Anti-VEGF rats never developed exposed, necrotic bone. Furthermore, only anti-VEGF rats developed mild to severe mandibular periodontitis. Compared to VEH rats, more T-cells were found in periodontal lesions of anti-VEGF rats and more cells of the monocyte lineage were found in ONJ lesions of ZOL rats. CONCLUSIONS Anti-VEGF monotherapy administered to a validated rodent model of ONJ caused a destructive advanced form of periodontitis that differed significantly from ONJ.

Abstract
Treatment with cumulative dosages of zoledronic acid (ZA) in elderly patients is a risk factor for the development of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ), mainly related to surgical triggers such as tooth extraction. However, animal models for the investigation and understanding of MRONJ pathophysiology in senescent and postmenopausal stages remains to be developed and characterized. The aim of this study was to analyze MRONJ development in senescent female mice treated with cumulative dosages of ZA. For this purpose, twenty 129/Sv female mice, 64 weeks old, were treated with 0.9% saline solution as control group (n = 10), and with ZA at 250μg/Kg (n = 10), once a week, starting 4 weeks before the upper right incisor extraction and until the end of the experimental time points (7 days and 21 days). At 7 and 21 days post-surgery, specimens were harvested for microCT, histological, birefringence and immunohistochemical analysis. Clinically, an incomplete epithelialization was observed in ZA group at 7 days and a delayed bone matrix mineralization and collagen maturation at 7 and 21 days compared to the controls. Controls revealed sockets filled with mature bone at 21 days as observed by microCT and birefringence, while ZA group presented delayed bone deposition at 7 and 21 days, as well increased leukocyte infiltration and blood clot at 7 days, and increased bone sequestrum and empty osteocyte lacunae at 21 days (p<0.05). Also, ZA group presented decreased quantity of TGFb+ and Runx-2+ cells at 7 days, and decreased quantity of TRAP+ osteoclasts compared to the control at 21 days (p<0.05). Altogether, these data demonstrate the usefulness of this model to understanding the pathophysiology of MRONJ.

Abstract
Biologic medications (BMs) are increasingly used for the management of systemic chronic inflammatory diseases. These diseases are often associated with a higher prevalence of apical periodontitis (AP) and periodontitis (P). The purpose of this systematic review was to ascertain the interactions between AP and/or P and BMs. The review was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42017054756). Electronic searches were performed on Pubmed Medline, Scopus and The Web of Science from their inception through to 20 March 2018. The references of the articles selected were checked. The keywords were chosen based on a pilot search, which aimed to find the most frequently prescribed BMs. The included studies were appraised qualitatively using appropriate tools. Thirty-five articles met the inclusion criteria, comprising 16 non-randomized clinical studies, 12 in vivo animal studies and 7 case reports. Quality of information was assessed as high in 18 articles, moderate in 16 articles and low in 1 article. BMs in patients suffering from chronic inflammatory diseases seems to inhibit the progression of AP and P, and to enhance the healing response to periodontal and endodontic treatment. A healthier condition of the periodontal tissues seems to be associated with a better response of the patient to BMs therapy.

Zoledronate treatment duration is linked to bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw prevalence in rice rats with generalized periodontitis. Oral Dis 2019; 25:1116-1135.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the extent that zoledronate (ZOL) dose and duration is associated with bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) prevalence in rice rats with generalized periodontitis (PD), characterize structural and tissue-level features of BRONJ-like lesions in this model, and examine the specific anti-resorptive role of ZOL in BRONJ. MATERIALS AND METHODS Rice rats (n = 228) consumed high sucrose-casein diet to enhance generalized PD. Groups of rats received 0, 8, 20, 50 or 125 µg/kg IV ZOL/4 weeks encompassing osteoporosis and oncology ZOL doses. Rats from each dose group (n = 9-16) were necropsied after 12, 18, 24 and 30 weeks of treatment. BRONJ-like lesion prevalence and tissue-level features were assessed grossly, histopathologically and by MicroCT. ZOL bone turnover effects were assessed by femoral peripheral quantitative computed tomography, serum bone turnover marker ELISAs and osteoclast immunolabelling. RESULTS Prevalence of BRONJ-like lesions was significantly associated with (a) ZOL treatment duration, but plateaued at the lowest oncologic dose, and (b) there was a similar dose-related plateau in the systemic anti-resorptive effect of ZOL. ZOL and BRONJ-like lesions also altered the structural and tissue-level features of the jaw. CONCLUSION The relationship between BRONJ-like lesion prevalence and ZOL dose and duration varies depending on the co- or pre-existing oral risk factor. At clinically relevant doses of ZOL, BRONJ-like lesions are associated with anti-resorptive activity.

Abstract
Antiresorptive agents, such as bisphosphonates and denosumab, are frequently used for the management of osteoporosis. Indeed, both medications decrease the risk of osteoporotic fractures; however, these medications are associated with rare but potentially severe side effects, such as osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ). ONJ, defined as an area of exposed bone in the maxillofacial region that lasts for 8 weeks, often presents with significant pain and infection and can lead to serious complications. Interestingly, other treatments for osteoporosis have been developed, such as antibodies against the osteocyte-secreted protein, sclerostin. Sclerostin functions to inhibit the Wnt signaling cascade, leading to inhibition of bone formation. In clinical trials, a sclerostin antibody (romosozumab, Amgen Inc., UCB Brussels) increases bone formation and lowers the risk of osteoporotic fractures. However, in conjunction with increased osteoblastic activity, a reduction in bone resorption markers is observed. This antiresorptive effect raises the concern of possible ONJ development in patients treated with sclerostin antibodies. Here, utilizing ligature-induced experimental periodontitis (EP), we evaluated the effects of sclerostin inhibition on the development of ONJ-like lesions in ovariectomized rats. Beginning 8 weeks post-ovariectomy, rats were treated for 22 weeks with weekly injections of vehicle (Veh), 200 μg/kg zoledronic acid (ZA), a potent bisphosphonate at 100-fold the osteoporosis dose, or 5 mg/kg sclerostin antibody (Scl-Ab) at the osteoporotic dose. EP was initiated at week 12 and maintained for the remainder of the study. Scl-Ab treatment transiently increased serum P1NP, a bone formation marker, increased BV/TV, and decreased eroded surfaces in lumbar vertebrae. ZA-treated rats developed histologic features of ONJ, whereas Veh-treated controls did not. Scl-Ab animals lost less periodontal bone in sites with EP. However, these animals presented with no histologic signs of ONJ. In conclusion, sclerostin inhibition enhanced structural bone parameters, without inducing ONJ-like lesions, in ovariectomized rats with EP. © 2018 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Oral ulceration with bone sequestration (OUBS) describes a site-specific intraoral ulcer that covers exposed, non-vital bone in patients lacking any etiological factor known to induce osteonecrosis. We aimed to conduct a retrospective study of eight new cases of OUBS and review the literature. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This is a retrospective study of OUBS cases, diagnosed and managed during 2007-2017. Inclusion criteria were the presence of oral ulcer with exposed non-vital bone at sites of bone prominence and the absence of any factor known to cause osteonecrosis. The English literature was reviewed on original OUBS cases. RESULTS Eight patients (5 males and 3 females, aged 27-75 years) were diagnosed with OUBS during years 2007-2017. Four cases involved the mandibular mylohyoid ridge, one a mandibular anterior exostosis and three the maxillary buccal/palatal exostoses. Exposed bone was removed under local anesthesia, resulting in complete healing in all cases. The literature review yielded 32 OUBS cases in the mandible. CONCLUSION Oral ulceration with bone sequestration is a distinct, probably under-reported rather than rare clinical entity that should be regarded the provisional diagnosis in case of an oral ulcer covering exposed, non-vital bone at sites of bone prominence in patients lacking any etiological factor known to induce osteonecrosis.

Abstract
We sought to better characterize the progression of periodontal tissue breakdown in rats induced by a ligature model of experimental periodontal disease (PD). A total of 60 male Sprague-Dawley rats were evenly divided into an untreated control group and a PD group induced by ligature bilaterally around first and second maxillary molars. Animals were sacrificed at 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 21 days after the induction of PD. Alveolar bone loss was evaluated by histomorphometry and microcomputed tomography (μCT). The immune-inflammatory process in the periodontal tissue was assessed using descriptive histologic analysis and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). This ligature model resulted in significant alveolar bone loss and increased inflammatory process of the periodontal tissues during the initial periods of evaluation (0-14 days). A significant increase in the gene expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and proteins involved in osteoclastogenesis, receptor activator of nuclear factor-k B ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) was observed in the first week of analysis. In the later periods of evaluation (14-21 days), no significant alterations were noted with regard to inflammatory processes, bone resorption, and expression of cytokine genes. The ligature-induced PD model resulted in progressive alveolar bone resorption with two different phases: Acute (0-14 days), characterized by inflammation and rapid bone resorption, and chronic (14-21 days) with no significant progression of bone loss. Furthermore, the gene expressions of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, RANKL, and OPG were highly increased during the progress of PD in the early periods. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: Ligature-induced bone resorption in rats occurred in the initial periods after disease induction The bone resorption was characterized by two distinct phases: Acute (0-14 days), with pronounced inflammation and alveolar bone loss Chronic phase (14-21 days): No further disease progression Several pro-inflammatory cytokines were increased during the progress of periodontitis.

Abstract
Objective This study was performed to determine whether the results of prevailing in vivo and in vitro studies offer a reliable model for investigation of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). Methods Embase, Medline, and the Cochrane Library were searched for articles published from September 2003 to June 2017 involving experimental approaches to the pathogenesis of MRONJ. In vivo and in vitro trials were analyzed with respect to the scientific question, study design, methodology, and results. Results Of 139 studies, 87, 46, and 6 conducted in vivo, in vitro, and both in vivo and in vitro experiments, respectively. Rats, mice, dogs, minipigs, sheep, and rabbits were the preferred animal models used. Osteoblasts, osteoclasts, fibroblasts, keratinocytes, macrophages, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells were the preferred cell types. Zoledronate, alendronate, ibandronate, and risedronate were the most frequent bisphosphonates used. MRONJ was most reliably induced in minipigs because of the close relationship with human bone physiology. In vitro studies showed that reduced viability, growth, and migration of cells in the bone and soft tissues were causative for MRONJ. Other than exposed jawbone after tooth extraction, no reliable cofactors were found. Conclusion The minipig is the most suitable animal model for MRONJ.

Abstract
PURPOSE Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a rare but severe side effect of antiresorptive medications. Most animal models use tooth extraction as an instigating local factor to induce MRONJ, with varied results. However, these teeth are healthy and absent of dental disease, a rare finding that does not reflect clinical practices. The authors hypothesized that extraction of teeth with periapical inflammation would lead to MRONJ in rats treated with high-dose bisphosphonates. MATERIALS AND METHODS Rats were pretreated with zoledronic acid (ZA) for 1 week. Pulp exposure (PE) was established by exposing the pulpal chamber of the first and second molars. Experimental periapical disease (EPD) was induced by PE and bacterial inoculation into pulp chambers of the first and second mandibular molars. The mandibular molars were extracted 4 weeks after PE or EPD, and animals were euthanized 4 weeks after tooth extraction. Extraction sockets were assessed clinically, radiographically, and histologically. RESULTS Clinically, radiographically, and histologically, socket healing was observed in all vehicle-treated animals and in ZA-treated animals after extraction of healthy teeth or teeth with PE. In contrast, bone exposure, lack of socket healing, and osteonecrosis were present in most ZA-treated animals after extraction of teeth with EPD. Bacterial presence was noted in areas of osteonecrotic alveolar bone. CONCLUSION These data support a synergistic contribution of severe dental disease and tooth extraction to MRONJ pathogenesis. Importantly, this model is amenable to manipulation of methodologic conditions for the dissection of parameters involved in MRONJ pathogenesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Investigate role of dose/duration of zoledronic acid (ZOL), a powerful anti-resorptive (pAR), on prevalence of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) in rice rats (Oryzomys palustris), a species with natural susceptibility to food impaction-induced localized periodontitis (FILP). We hypothesize that ZOL induces MRONJ lesions in rice rats with FILP, and that the prevalence of MRONJ rises with increasing dose and duration of ZOL treatment. METHODS We performed a toxicology experiment with clinically-relevant doses of ZOL in female rats (N=230) fed standard (STD) rodent chow. At age 4weeks (baseline), 12 rats were necropsied. The rest were randomized into five groups that began to receive 0, 8, 20, 50 or 125μg/kg ZOL IV/q 4weeks. After 12, 18, 24 and 30weeks, subgroups (N=9-16) from each of the dose groups were necropsied. High-resolution macroscopic photos of all jaw quadrants were given a gross quadrant grade (GQG) (0-4 or MRONJ) that classified FILP lesion severity and determined presence of gross MRONJ. Quadrants with GQG≥1 were examined histopathologically. Logistic regression analysis (ZOL dose/duration) of MRONJ prevalence was completed. RESULTS We found: 1) 75% of 0μg/kg ZOL rats developed FILP lesions; 2) baseline rats and rats treated with 0μg/kg ZOL had no MRONJ; 3) 29 gross MRONJ cases were identified; 4) all gross MRONJ cases were confirmed histopathologically by the observation of exposed necrotic bone, and 53 new cases were discovered (total=82); 5) ZOL dose (P<0.001), but not duration (P=0.326), was a significant predictor of MRONJ prevalence; 6) 13% prevalence of gross MRONJ among all rats, with 22% prevalence among rats exposed to ZOL oncologic doses (20-125μg/kg); 7) 38% prevalence of histopathologic MRONJ among all rats, with 73% prevalence among rats exposed to ZOL oncologic doses. CONCLUSIONS This is the first experiment to show a dose response relationship between clinically relevant doses of ZOL and MRONJ prevalence.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ) is a rare but severe complication of antiresorptive medications, such as bisphosphonates, used in the treatment of bone malignancy or osteoporosis. Tooth extraction and dental disease have been strongly associated with ONJ development. Here, we investigated molecular and cellular markers of socket healing after extraction of healthy or teeth with experimental periodontitis (EP) in Wistar-Han rats treated with zoledronic acid (ZA). We included 4 experimental groups: vehicle-treated animals with extraction of healthy teeth or teeth with ligature-induced EP and ZA-treated animals with extraction of healthy teeth or teeth with EP. Animals were pretreated with vehicle or ZA for a week, and EP was induced. Four weeks later, the second maxillary molars were extracted; sockets were allowed to heal for 4 wk; animals were euthanized; and maxillae were isolated. Radiographically, extraction sockets in groups 1, 2, and 3 demonstrated normal healing. Contrary incomplete socket healing was noted after extraction of teeth with EP in ZA-treated rats of group 4. Histologically, persistent inflammation and extensive osteonecrosis were seen in group 4. Disorganization of the collagen network, collagen type III predominance, and lack of collagen fiber insertion in the necrotic bone were associated with impaired socket healing. Cells positive for MMP-9, MMP-13, and α-SMA expression were present at the areas of epithelial invagination and adjacent to osteonecrotic bone. Importantly, human biopsies from patients with ONJ showed similar findings. Our data emphasize the importance of dental disease and tooth extraction in ONJ pathogenesis and help delineate an altered profile in wound-healing markers during ONJ development.

Osteoclast profile of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw secondary to bisphosphonate therapy: a comparison with osteoradionecrosis and osteomyelitis. J Transl Med 2017; 15:128. [PMID: 28587628 PMCID: PMC5461625 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-017-1230-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2017] [Accepted: 05/30/2017] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw secondary to bisphosphonate therapy [MRONJ (BP)] is characterized by non-healing exposed bone in the maxillofacial region. The pathogenesis of MRONJ (BP) is not fully understood. Giant, hypernucleated, inactive osteoclasts were found in MRONJ (BP) tissues, which indicated that accelerated cell–cell fusion might play a role. Dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP) is associated with the cell–cell fusion of osteoclasts and precursor cells. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) is essential for osteoclastic bone resorption. The cell–cell fusion, as part of the osteoclastogenesis, and the resorptive activity can determine the morphology of osteoclasts. This study analyzed jaw bone from patients with MRONJ (BP), osteomyelitis (OM) and osteoradionecrosis (ORN) because a comparison with the osteoclast profiles of OM and ORN is essential for characterizing the osteoclast profile of MRONJ (BP). Methods Formalin-fixed routine jaw bone specimens from 70 patients [MRONJ (BP) n = 30; OM: n = 15, ORN: n = 15, control: n = 10] were analyzed retrospectively for osteoclast quantity, morphology and the expression of TRAP and DC-STAMP. The specimens were processed for hematoxylin and eosin staining (H&E), histochemistry (TRAP) and immunohistochemistry (anti-DC-STAMP) and were analyzed via virtual microscopy. Results The quantity, diameter and nuclearity of osteoclasts were significantly higher in MRONJ (BP) specimens than in OM, ORN and control specimens. Giant, hypernucleated osteoclasts were detected in MRONJ (BP) specimens only. Osteoclastic TRAP expression was lower in MRONJ (BP) and ORN specimens than in OM and control specimens. The DC-STAMP expression of osteoclasts and mononuclear cells was significantly higher in MRONJ (BP) and ORN specimens than in OM and control specimens. Conclusions This study indicates that the osteoclast profile of MRONJ (BP) is characterized by osteoclast inactivation and a high cell–cell fusion rate; however, the presence of giant, hypernucleated osteoclasts cannot be attributed to increased DC-STAMP-triggered cell–cell fusion alone. The incidental characterization of the osteoclast profiles of OM and ORN revealed differences that might facilitate the histopathological differentiation of these diseases from MRONJ (BP), which is essential because their therapies are somewhat different.

Abstract
Background/purpose Few studies have investigated the possibility that bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) might reflect an immune response; however, gamma delta T cells have been shown to significantly decline in the blood of BRONJ patients. Additionally, there have been some reports of teriparatide usage for the treatment of BRONJ. In this study, we compared the effects of zoledronate and teriparatide on lymphocyte populations and inflammatory cytokine production in mice. Materials and methods Thirty female ICR mice were divided into three groups (n = 10 each): a vehicle, a zoledronate, and a teriparatide group. Drugs were administered for 8 weeks in each group. Lymphocytes in the blood and thymus were analyzed and femurs were used for histological observation and lymphocytes analysis of bone marrow. Cytokines were measured in separated serum using Milliplex® multiplex immunoassay analysis. Results Zoledronate decreased the T cell number in the bone marrow. Additionally, serum levels of interleukin (IL)-2, IL-7, IL-12, IL-15 and RANTES, which are cytokines that affect T cell activation, differentiation and/or proliferation, were significantly lower in zoledronate treated mice. Conversely, teriparatide treatment induced an increase in gamma delta T cells in peripheral blood. Conclusion Gamma delta T cells in the bone marrow are expected to decrease with zoledronate treatment and increase with teriparatide treatment. If BRONJ involves a loss of gamma delta T cells in the circulation or bone marrow, then the increase in gamma delta T cells that is induced by teriparatide may account for its ability to resolve BRONJ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bisphosphonate-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (BRONJ) is clinically characterized by the presence of exposed bone in the oral cavity that persists for more than eight weeks. Previous attempts to establish an animal model have not sufficiently considered disease features. Our aim was to establish an inexpensive and replicable animal model that develops BRONJ in a short time. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty-two male Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups: control and experimental. In the experimental group, we administered 0.06mg/kg intraperitoneal dose of zoledronic acid (ZA) 7 and 14 days prior to maxillary second molar extraction. At two, four and six weeks after tooth extraction, the animals were euthanized, and we dissected the maxilla following histological procedures. We stained serial slides with hematoxylin and eosin and Masson's trichrome. The samples were harvested for macroscopic, radiologic and histological evaluation of bone changes. RESULTS At two weeks postextraction, we observed exposed necrotic bone in dental socket areas in experimental groups. Radiological analysis revealed osteolytic lesions accompanied by extensive destruction and sequestrum formation in the same group. Histological examination confirmed the absence of necrotic bone in control groups in contrast with the experimental groups. The percentage of empty lacunae and the number of osteoclasts and the necrotic bone area were significantly increased (p<0.05) in the experimental groups. CONCLUSIONS The animal model using ZA administration to prior dental extraction successfully mimicked human BRONJ lesions. Also, the model was easily replicated, inexpensive and showed different features than other previous BRONJ models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) inhibitors are novel clinically effective agents that inhibit osteoclast differentiation, function, and survival by binding to RANKL. Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), caused as a result of treatment using denosumab, is a newly emerging type of bone necrosis, the exact pathogenesis of which is unknown. Several studies recently showed that the intravenous administration of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) improved the osteonecrosis of the jaw, and it was hypothesized that paracrine effects by secretomes from MSCs are the main constituent. Our aim was to investigate the effects of serum-free conditioned media from human MSCs (MSC-CM) and RANKL inhibitors on osteoclast differentiation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cytokines included in MSC-CM were identified using the cytokine array analysis. MSC-CM was added to the culture medium of rat osteoclast precursors containing RANKL inhibitor. Osteoclast differentiation assays, immunohistochemistry, real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis, and pit formation assays were performed. RESULTS MSC-CM included various cytokines such as the recruitment of cell osteogenesis angiogenesis and cell proliferation. MSC-CM promoted osteoclast differentiation and expression of master regulatory transcriptional factors for osteoclastogenesis. In addition, MSC-CM showed function maintenance in osteoclasts despite the presence of RANKL inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that secretomes in MSC-CM were related to the regulation of osteoclast differentiation, which may reduce the effect of RANKL inhibitors. CLINICAL RELEVANCE New combinations of drugs using factors included in MSC-CM have effective therapeutic modality for treating patients with MRONJ.

Abstract
A known complication that can occur in patients using bisphosphonates (BPs) is osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ). ONJ features bone exposure that may be associated with severe pain, swelling, local infection, and pathological fracture of the jaw. Current literature indicates that a complex combination of factors is necessary to induce ONJ. Several hypotheses about the pathophysiology of ONJ were previously reported. Here, we review these hypotheses and introduce new ideas and suggestions on this topic, focusing on bone site-specific cells, and the effect that BPs and other anti-resorptive drugs have on those cells. Gaining more insight into bone site-specific effects may help to better understand the pathogenesis ONJ, and contribute to the development of new bone site-specific anti-resorptive drugs.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ) is a complication of antiresorptive medications, such as denosumab or bisphosphonates, prescribed to patients with bone malignancy or osteoporosis. The most common instigating local factor in ONJ pathogenesis is tooth extraction. However, in adults the great majority of teeth are extracted due to dental disease. Here, we have investigated alveolar bone healing after extraction of healthy teeth or teeth with naturally occurring periradicular disease in mice treated with high dose zoledronic acid (ZA), a potent bisphosphonate, or OPG-Fc, a RANKL inhibitor. C57BL/6 mice were treated for eight weeks and in vivo micro-CT was performed to identify spontaneously occurring periradicular lesions around the roots of maxillary molars. Then, extractions of molars with and without dental disease were performed in all groups. Four weeks later, animals were euthanized and maxillae were dissected and analyzed. Clinically, all vehicle animals with extraction of healthy or diseased teeth, and most OPG-Fc or ZA animals with extraction of healthy teeth showed normal mucosal healing. On the contrary, most animals with OPG-Fc or ZA treatment and extraction of diseased teeth demonstrated impaired healing with visible mucosal defects. Radiographically, bone socket healing was significantly compromised in OPG-Fc and ZA-treated mice with periradicular disease in comparison to other groups. Histologically, all vehicle animals showed normal mucosal healing and socket remodeling. OPG-Fc and ZA animals with extraction of healthy teeth showed normal mucosal healing, woven bone formation in the socket, and decreased remodeling of the original socket confines. OPG-Fc and ZA animals with extraction of diseased teeth showed mucosal defects, persistent prominent inflammatory infiltrate, bone exposure and areas of osteonecrosis. These findings support that dental disease is critical in the pathogenesis of ONJ, not only as the instigating cause for tooth extraction, but also as a compounding factor in ONJ development and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an autoimmune inflammatory disorder, results in persistent synovitis with severe bone and cartilage destruction. Bisphosphonates (BPs) are often utilized in RA patients to reduce bone destruction and manage osteoporosis. However, BPs, especially at high doses, are associated with osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ). Here, utilizing previously published ONJ animal models, we are exploring interactions between RA and ONJ incidence and severity. DBA1/J mice were divided into four groups: control, zoledronic acid (ZA), collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), and CIA-ZA. Animals were pretreated with vehicle or ZA. Bovine collagen II emulsified in Freund's adjuvant was injected to induce arthritis (CIA) and the mandibular molar crowns were drilled to induce periapical disease. Vehicle or ZA treatment continued for 8 weeks. ONJ indices were measured by micro-CT (µCT) and histological examination of maxillae and mandibles. Arthritis development was assessed by visual scoring of paw swelling, and by µCT and histology of interphalangeal and knee joints. Maxillae and mandibles of control and CIA mice showed bone loss, periodontal ligament (PDL) space widening, lamina dura loss, and cortex thinning. ZA prevented these changes in both ZA and CIA-ZA groups. Epithelial to alveolar crest distance was increased in the control and CIA mice. This distance was preserved in ZA and CIA-ZA animals. Empty osteocytic lacunae and areas of osteonecrosis were present in ZA and CIA-ZA but more extensively in CIA-ZA animals, indicating more severe ONJ. CIA and CIA-ZA groups developed severe arthritis in the paws and knees. Interphalangeal and knee joints of CIA mice showed advanced bone destruction with cortical erosions and trabecular bone loss, and ZA treatment reduced these effects. Importantly, no osteonecrosis was noted adjacent to areas of articular inflammation in CIA-ZA mice. Our data suggest that ONJ burden was more pronounced in ZA treated CIA mice and that RA could be a risk factor for ONJ development. © 2016 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.
