Abstract
Pentosidine (PEN) is an Advanced Glycation End-product (AGE) that is known to accumulate in bone collagen with aging and contribute to fracture risk. The PEN content in bone is correlated with serum PEN, making it an attractive, potential osteoporosis biomarker. We sought to develop a method for quantifying PEN in stored serum. After conducting a systematic narrative review of PEN quantification methodologies, we developed a liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for quantifying total serum PEN. Our method is both sensitive and precise (LOD 2 nM, LOQ 5 nM, %CV < 6.5 % and recovery 91.2-100.7 %). Our method is also equivalent or better than other methods identified in our review. Additionally, LC-MS/MS avoids the pitfalls and limitations of using fluorescence as a means of detection and could be adapted to investigate a broad range of AGE compounds.

Abstract
Background The menopause transition is marked by hormonal shifts leading to body composition changes, such as fat mass gain and lean mass loss. Weight-bearing and resistance exercise can help maintain lean mass during the menopause transition; however, uptake is low. Pre-clinical research points to bisphosphonates as also being effective in preventing loss of lean mass. Thus, we sought to investigate whether bisphosphonate therapy can mitigate loss of lean mass and outperform weight-bearing exercise in the years immediately following menopause. Methods Data come from the Heartland Osteoporosis Prevention Study (NCT02186600), where osteopenic, postmenopausal women were randomized to bisphosphonate (n=91), weight-bearing/resistance exercise (n=92), or control (n=93) conditions over a one-year period. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-derived body composition measures (including total lean mass, total fat mass, lean mass index, and lean mass-to-fat mass ratio) were ascertained at baseline, six, and 12-months. Adherence to risedronate and weight-bearing exercise was defined as the percentage of dosages taken and exercise sessions attended. Intent-to-treat analysis using linear modeling was used to generate treatment effects on body composition. Secondary analysis utilized per-protocol analysis and included adjustment for weight change. Results 276 women (age: 54.5 years; 83.3% Caucasian; BMI: 25.7 kg/m2) were included in the analyses. 12-month adherence to the risedronate and exercise interventions was 89% and 64%, respectively. Group-by-time interactions were observed for lean mass, revealing exercise (0.43±1.49kg) and risedronate groups (0.31±1.68 kg) gained significantly more lean mass than control (-0.15±1.27 kg) over 12-months. However, after controlling for weight change in secondary analysis, the difference in lean mass change between control and risedronate became non-significant (p=0.059). Conclusions Results suggest both 12 months of oral risedronate and 12 months of weight-bearing exercise may diminish lean mass loss experienced during the menopause transition as compared to control. The lean mass sparing effect for risedronate may be driven by overall weight change.

Efficacy and Safety of Oral Ibandronate versus Intravenous Zoledronic Acid on Bone Metabolism and Bone Mineral Density in Postmenopausal Japanese Women with Osteoporosis. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10225420. [PMID: 34830702 PMCID: PMC8624848 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10225420] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2021] [Revised: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 11/16/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
There are no published clinical reports comparing ibandronate (IBN) treatment and zoledronic acid (ZOL) treatment in Japanese postmenopausal osteoporotic patients. This investigation therefore compared the efficacy and safety of the drugs on improving bone metabolism and bone mineral density (BMD) in Japanese postmenopausal women with primary osteoporosis. Eighty-two treatment-naïve primary osteoporotic female patients were randomly divided into IBN-treated or ZOL-treated groups. Bone turnover markers and BMD were examined immediately prior to treatment (baseline) and at 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30 months of therapy. Compared with baseline levels, the values of type 1 procollagen N-terminal propeptide, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP), urinary type-I collagen amino-terminal telopeptide (NTX), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b were all significantly decreased at every time point in both groups apart from BAP at 30 months in the ZOL group, urinary NTX at 12 months in the ZOL group and at 24 and 30 months in both groups. Lumbar BMD values were significantly increased at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months in the IBN group and at 6 and 12 months in the ZOL group compared with pre-treatment levels. Hip BMD values were also significantly increased at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months in the IBN group and at 6, 12, and 18 months in the ZOL group compared with baseline values. The percentage changes of hip BMD at 18 and 24 months in the ZOL group were significantly higher than those in the IBN group (both p < 0.05). No remarkable adverse events were noted in either group. In conclusion, both IBN and ZOL significantly and safely improved bone turnover markers and BMD during 30 months of treatment in Japanese osteoporosis patients. The ZOL group tended to exhibit greater gains in BMD as compared with the IBN group, which merits further investigation.

Abstract
The effect of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on peripheral muscle parameters is not completely understood. This study aimed to elucidate the influence of RA on peripheral muscle area and whole body skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) using peripheral quantitative computed tomography and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in postmenopausal women. This cross-sectional study included 54 postmenopausal women with RA and 86 healthy controls. Peripheral quantitative computed tomography and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry were used to measure the muscle cross-sectional area and skeletal muscle mass. Muscle strength was assessed using a handheld dynamometer. Additionally, the effects of RA on muscle area and density as well as the bone / muscle area ratio were analyzed using multivariate models. The muscle area index of the thigh and forearm were correlated between both groups (RA: r = 0.357, p = 0.030; and healthy controls: r = 0.608, p < 0.001) and each index correlated with SMI in RA and healthy controls (p < 0.001). Bone / muscle area ratio correlated between forearms and thighs in health controls only (r = 0.547, p < 0.001). The RA group had a decreased thigh muscle area (p = 0.014); the fat area and fat muscle area ratio at the thigh and forearm were significantly increased (all p < 0.001), as well as thigh bone / muscle area ratio (p = 0.015). The RA group also had significantly lower forearm muscle density (p < 0.001). A sensitivity analysis excluding those on bisphosphonates led to similar results. Independent of RA, the thigh and forearm muscle area correlate with each other and with SMI. Differences in the bone / muscle ratio between RA and healthy controls may indicate regional muscle effects of inflammation and inactivity.

[PMID: 32952342 PMCID: PMC7476181 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v26.i33.4960] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2020] [Revised: 08/03/2020] [Accepted: 08/25/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Effective treatment of osteoporosis is essential for improving morbidity and health-related quality of life in chronic liver disease (CLD) patients. Denosumab has been shown to increase bone mineral density (BMD) and decrease the risk of osteoporotic fracture in the general population. However, there are few reports evaluating the efficacy of denosumab in CLD patients.
AIM To investigated the effects and safety of denosumab in CLD patients with osteoporosis.
METHODS Sixty CLD patients with osteoporosis were subcutaneously administered denosumab once every 6 mo. The study period for evaluating efficacy and safety was 12 mo. Changes from baseline in BMD at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total hip were evaluated at 12 mo of denosumab treatment. Bone turnover and quality were assessed by measuring serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b (bone resorption marker), serum total procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (bone formation maker), and plasma pentosidine (bone quality marker).
RESULTS Among the 405 CLD patients, 138 (34.1%) patients were diagnosed with osteoporosis; among these, 78 patients met the exclusion criteria and thus 60 patients were finally included in the present study. The median percentage changes from baseline to 12 mo of denosumab treatment in BMD at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total hip were +4.44%, +3.71%, and +4.03%, respectively. Denosumab significantly improved BMD, regardless of sex, patient age, and presence of liver cirrhosis. Serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b and procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide levels constantly and significantly declined after denosumab treatment (P < 0.001). Plasma pentosidine levels were also significantly lower at 12 mo of treatment (P = 0.010). No patients experienced fractures and moderate-to-severe adverse events, except for transient hypocalcemia.
CONCLUSION Denosumab treatment was safe and increased BMD, suppressed bone turnover, and improved bone quality marker levels in CLD patients with osteoporosis, irrespective of differences in baseline characteristics.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The goal of the review is to assess the appropriateness of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) for the primary prevention of bone loss in women at elevated risk in the early years after menopause. RECENT FINDINGS Estrogen alone or combined with progestin to protect the uterus from cancer significantly reduces the risk of osteoporosis-related fractures. MHT increases type 1 collagen production and osteoblast survival and maintains the equilibrium between bone resorption and bone formation by modulating osteoblast/osteocyte and T cell regulation of osteoclasts. Estrogens have positive effects on muscle and cartilage. Estrogen, but not antiresorptive therapies, can attenuate the inflammatory bone-microenvironment associated with estrogen deficiency. However, already on second year of administration, MHT is associated with excess breast cancer risk, increasing steadily with duration of use. MHT should be considered in women with premature estrogen deficiency and increased risk of bone loss and osteoporotic fractures. However, MHT use for the prevention of bone loss is hindered by increase in breast cancer risk even in women younger than 60 years old or who are within 10 years of menopause onset.

Effect of alendronate or 8-prenylnaringenin applied as a single therapy or in combination with vibration on muscle structure and bone healing in ovariectomized rats. Bone Rep 2019; 11:100224. [PMID: 31516917 PMCID: PMC6728878 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2019.100224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2018] [Revised: 08/19/2019] [Accepted: 08/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Bisphosphonate alendronate (ALN), phytoestrogen 8-prenylnaringenin (8-PN) and the whole body vibration exert a favorable effect on osteoporotic bone. However, the impact of these treatments and the combination of pharmacological therapies with biomechanical stimulation on muscle and bone has not yet been explored in detail. The effect of ALN and 8-PN and their combination with the vibration (Vib) on skeletal muscle and bone healing was investigated in ovariectomized (Ovx) rats. Three-month old rats were Ovx (n = 78), or left intact (Non-Ovx; n = 12). Five weeks after Ovx, all rats were treated according to the group assignment (n = 12/13): 1) Non-Ovx; 2) Ovx; 3) Ovx + Vib; 4) Ovx + ALN; 5) Ovx + ALN + Vib; 6): Ovx + 8-PN; 7) Ovx + 8-PN + Vib. Treatments with ALN (0.58 mg/kg BW, in food), 8-PN (1.77 mg/kg BW, daily s.c. injections) and/or with vertical vibration (0.5 mm, 35 Hz, 1 g, 15 min, 2×/day, 5×/week) were conducted for ten weeks. Nine weeks after Ovx, all rats underwent bilateral tibia osteotomy with plate osteosynthesis and were sacrificed six weeks later. Vibration increased fiber size and capillary density in muscle, enlarged callus area and width, and decreased callus density in tibia, and elevated alkaline phosphatase in serum. ALN and ALN + Vib enhanced capillarization and lactate dehydrogenase activity in muscle. In tibia, ALN slowed bone healing, ALN + Vib increased callus width and density, enhanced callus formation rate and expression of osteogenic genes. 8-PN and 8-PN + Vib decreased fiber size and increased capillary density in muscle; callus density and cortical width were reduced in tibia. Vibration worsened 8-PN effect on bone healing decreasing the callus width and area. Our data suggest that Vib, ALN, 8-PN, or 8-PN + Vib do not appear to aid bone healing. ALN + Vib improved bone healing; however application is questionable since single treatments impaired bone healing. Muscle responds to the anti-osteoporosis treatments and should be included in the evaluation of the drugs. Vibration (Vib) was beneficial for muscle structure, it tended to interfere with early bone healing. Alendronate (ALN) enhanced capillary density and metabolism in muscle, slowed bone healing. 8-Prenylnaringenin (8-PN) had favorable effects on muscle, for bone healing it was disadvantageous. 8PN + Vib further worsened 8-PN effect on bone, ALN + Vib improved bone healing. Muscles respond to anti-osteoporosis treatments, their analysis should be included in the evaluation of drugs.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the effect of cervus and cucumis polypeptide combined with zoledronic acid on bone metabolic biochemical markers in glucocorticoids - induced osteoporosis patients. Methods A total of 100 patients with glucocorticoids - induced osteoporosis admitted to our hospital from January 2015 to June 2017 were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, 50 cases in each group. Patients in the observation group were treated with deer melon polypeptide in combination with zoledronic acid, and patients in the control group were treated with zoledronic acid alone. The patients in both groups were treated for 2 months. The changes of bone mineral density (BMD) and biochemical markers of bone metabolism in lumbar vertebrae L1-4, left femoral neck and large trochanter were analyzed before and after treatment. Results The pre- BMD at lumbar spine L1-4, left femoral neck and great trochanter had no statistic difference (P > 0.05), the BMD at each sites improved after treatment, and the difference were statistical before and after treatment (P < 0.05). BMD at above sites of two groups after treatment had statistical difference (P < 0.05), and the BMD at lumbar spine L1-4, left femoral neck and great trochanter in the observation group was higher than that of the control group. There were no significant differences in PTH, 25-(OH)D3, TRACP, β-CTX and BGP levels between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05). The levels of 25-(OH)D3, TRACP, β-CTX and BGP in the two groups were significantly improved after treatment (P < 0.05), and the levels of PTH, TRACP and β-CTX in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group. The levels of 25-(OH) D3 and BGP were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The cervus and cucumis polypeptide combined with zoledronic acid can improve the BMD at lumbar spine L1-4, left femoral neck and great trochanter, and ameliorate the bone metabolic biochemical markers for patients with glucocorticoids - induced osteoporosis.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is frequently accompanied by several side effects, including nausea, diarrhea, anorexia and fatigue. Evidence from ours and other groups suggests that chemotherapy can also play a major role in causing not only cachexia, but also bone loss. This complicates prognosis and survival among cancer patients, affects quality of life, and can increase morbidity and mortality rates. Recent findings suggest that soluble factors released from resorbing bone directly contribute to loss of muscle mass and function secondary to metastatic cancer. However, it remains unknown whether similar mechanisms also take place following treatments with anticancer drugs. In this study, we found that young male CD2F1 mice (8-week old) treated with the chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin (2.5 mg/kg) presented marked loss of muscle and bone mass. Myotubes exposed to bone conditioned medium from cisplatin-treated mice showed severe atrophy (-33%) suggesting a bone to muscle crosstalk. To test this hypothesis, mice were administered cisplatin in combination with an antiresorptive drug to determine if preservation of bone mass has an effect on muscle mass and strength following chemotherapy treatment. Mice received cisplatin alone or combined with zoledronic acid (ZA; 5 μg/kg), a bisphosphonate routinely used for the treatment of osteoporosis. We found that cisplatin resulted in progressive loss of body weight (-25%), in line with reduced fat (-58%) and lean (-17%) mass. As expected, microCT bone histomorphometry analysis revealed significant reduction in bone mass following administration of chemotherapy, in line with reduced trabecular bone volume (BV/TV) and number (Tb.N), as well as increased trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) in the distal femur. Conversely, trabecular bone was protected when cisplatin was administered in combination with ZA. Interestingly, while the animals exposed to chemotherapy presented significant muscle wasting (~-20% vs. vehicle-treated mice), the administration of ZA in combination with cisplatin resulted in preservation of muscle mass (+12%) and strength (+42%). Altogether, these observations support our hypothesis of bone factors targeting muscle and suggest that pharmacological preservation of bone mass can benefit muscle mass and function following chemotherapy.

Abstract
Most patients with Turner syndrome (TS) exhibit amenorrhea due to premature ovarian failure. Therefore, estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) is required; however, even after undergoing ERT, it is not rare for bone mass acquisition to be insufficient. This study was conducted in two stages, involving a cross-sectional and a prospective interventional study. We recruited 52 TS patients undergoing ERT due to amenorrhea (categorized into low (LB group; n = 23), and normal (NB group; n = 29) bone mass groups) and 7 TS patients who maintained ovarian function (spontaneous menstrual cycle group (MC group)) as controls. We compared bone associated markers between the three groups (LB, NB, and MC). Furthermore, the LB group had concomitant treatment with eldecalcitol (ELD) and ERT for 12 months. The bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumber spine (L2-4) and the bone metabolism markers were then compared before and after the treatment. The bone metabolism markers were significantly higher in the LB group than the NB and MC groups. Furthermore, with the concomitant use of ELD and ERT in the LB group, BMD increased significantly (pre-treatment 0.710 ± 0.056 g/cm2 vs. 0.736 ± 0.062 g/cm2 after 12 months; p < 0.001). TS patients with insufficient bone mass acquisition even after ERT were characterized by a higher turnover in bone metabolism. Therefore, the concomitant use of ELD was considered an effective adjuvant therapy for increasing bone mass.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is characterized by the systemic impairment of bone mass, strength, and microarchitecture, leading to an increased risk of fragility fracture. Bisphosphonates (BPs) are the first-line drugs for osteoporosis. Vitamin D is considered to be essential for osteoporotic treatment. However, long-term effects of BPs on the serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) are unknown. Accordingly, in this retrospective study, we collected clinical data of 41 post-menopausal Japanese women with osteoporosis treated with BP for over 3 years, without vitamin D supplementation. We measured lumbar and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) and serum levels of bone specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) as a bone formation marker, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP)-5b as a bone resorption marker, before and after the 3-year treatment. Serum 25(OH)D3, 1,25(OH)2D3, and whole parathyroid hormone (PTH) were also measured. Notably, no fracture occurred during the treatment. Compared with baseline values, 25(OH)D3 levels were significantly increased from 21.6 to 26.4 ng/mL (P = 0.006), despite no vitamin D supplementation. 1,25(OH)2D3 and whole PTH levels tended to be decreased from 62.6 to 57.8 pg/mL and 27.3 to 25.1 pg/mL, respectively. Both bone formation and resorption markers were significantly suppressed (P < 0.01). Both lumbar BMD (7.3% increase) and femoral neck BMD (4.1% increase) were significantly improved (P < 0.0001) after 3 years of the treatment. Thus, even without vitamin D supplementation, serum 25(OH)D3 levels were significantly increased after 3-year BP therapy. These results suggest that vitamin D supplementation might not be required in the long-term BP therapy for osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A global consensus on the loss of skeletal muscle mass and function in humans refers as sarcopenia and cachexia including diabetes, obesity, renal failure, and osteoporosis. Despite a current improvement of sarcopenia or cachexia with exercise training and supportive therapies, alternative and specific managements are needed to discover for whom are unable or unwilling to embark on these treatments. Alendronate is a widely used drug for osteoporosis in the elderly and postmenopausal women. Osteopenic menopausal women with 6 months of alendronate therapy have been observed to improve not only lumbar bone mineral density but also handgrip strength. However, the effect and mechanism of alendronate on muscle strength still remain unclear. Here, we investigated the therapeutic potential and the molecular mechanism of alendronate on the loss of muscle mass and strength in vitro and in vivo. METHODS Mouse myoblasts and primary human skeletal muscle-derived progenitor cells were used to assess the effects of low-dose alendronate (0.1-1 μM) combined with or without dexamethasone on myotube hypertrophy and myogenic differentiation. Moreover, we also evaluated the effects of low-dose alendronate (0.5 and 1 mg/kg) by oral administration on the limb muscle function and morphology of mice with denervation-induced muscle atrophy and glycerol-induced muscle injury. RESULTS Alendronate inhibited dexamethasone-induced myotube atrophy and myogenic differentiation inhibition in mouse myoblasts and primary human skeletal muscle-derived progenitor cells. Alendronate significantly abrogated dexamethasone-up-regulated sirtuin-3 (SIRT3), but not SIRT1, protein expression in myotubes. Both SIRT3 inhibitor AKG7 and SIRT3-siRNA transfection could also reverse dexamethasone-up-regulated atrogin-1 and SIRT3 protein expressions. Animal studies showed that low-dose alendronate by oral administration ameliorated the muscular malfunction in mouse models of denervation-induced muscle atrophy and glycerol-induced muscle injury with a negative regulation of SIRT3 expression. CONCLUSIONS The putative mechanism by which muscle atrophy was improved with alendronate might be through the SIRT3 down-regulation. These findings suggest that alendronate can be a promising therapeutic strategy for management of muscle wasting-related diseases and sarcopenia.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an inherited bone disorder that causes fractures due to impaired production of collagen type I. In recent years, denosumab, a human monoclonal antibody against receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL), has become widely used as an anti-osteoclastic agent for osteoporosis. This study investigated osteoporotic cases of OI to examine effects of denosumab on bone fragility. This was a retrospective, consecutive case series that included 3 female patients aged 42, 40, and 14 years, respectively. One patient carries a point mutation (c.G769A) in the COL1A1 gene, encoding collagen type I alpha 1 chain, which causes an amino-acid substitution (p.G257R). By contrast, no mutation was found in the analyzed regions of the OI responsive genes in another two patients (mother and daughter). These three patients underwent subcutaneous injection of denosumab every 6 months. All patients underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry for bone mineral density (BMD) measurement of the lumbar 1-4 spine (L-BMD) and bilateral hips (H-BMD) before and during treatment. BMD and laboratory data were evaluated before, between 2 and 4 months, and at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months of therapy. No fractures or severe side effects, such as hypocalcemia, were observed during denosumab treatment. Both L-BMD and H-BMD were increased by denosumab. At 24 months, the mean percentage changes in L-BMD and H-BMD were 14.7% and 15.1%, respectively. In conclusion, no bone fragility fractures occurred during 2 years of denosumab administration in OI patients. Denosumab therefore is a good therapeutic option in the OI patients.

Abstract
To evaluate the differences in outcomes of treatment with denosumab alone or denosumab combined with vitamin D and calcium supplementation in patients with primary osteoporosis. Patients were split into a denosumab monotherapy group (18 cases) or a denosumab plus vitamin D supplementation group (combination group; 23 cases). We measured serum bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP)-5b and urinary N-terminal telopeptide of type-I collagen (NTX) at baseline, 1 week, as well as at 1 month and 2, 4, 8 and 12 months. We also measured bone mineral density (BMD) of L1–4 lumbar vertebrae (L)-BMD and bilateral hips (H)-BMD at baseline and at 4, 8 and 12 months. There was no significant difference in patient background. TRACP-5b and urinary NTX were significantly suppressed in both groups from 1 week to 12 months (except at 12 months for NTX). In the combination group, TRACP-5b was significantly decreased compared with the denosumab monotherapy group at 2 and 4 months (P<0.05). BAP was significantly suppressed in both groups at 2–12 months. L-BMD significantly increased at 8 and 12 months (8.9%) in the combination group and at 4, 8 and 12 months (6.0%) in the denosumab monotherapy group, compared with those before treatment. H-BMD was significantly increased in the combination group (3.6%) compared with the denosumab group (1.2%) at 12 months (P<0.05). Compared with denosumab monotherapy, combination therapy of denosumab with vitamin D and calcium stopped the decrease in calcium caused by denosumab, inhibited bone metabolism to a greater extent, and increased BMD (especially at the hips).

Abstract
PURPOSE Monthly regimen of minodronate for osteoporosis more than two years has not been reported yet. The aim of this study is to elucidate the effect of monthly minodronate (M-MIN) on bone mineral density (BMD) and serum pentosidine (Pen) during 27 months. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study consisted of 52 newly treated patients (73.3 ± 8.8 years) (new group) and 47 patients (75.9 ± 9.5 years) who were switched from either alendronate or risedronate (switch group). Monthly minodronate (50 mg/every 4 weeks) was administered for 27 months. Lumbar, femoral neck, and total hip BMDs and serum pentosidine were monitored at baseline and after 9, 18, and 27 months of treatment. RESULTS In the new condition, lumbar, neck, and total hip BMDs increased significantly by 9.07%, 3.15%, and 3.06%, respectively. Only the lumbar BMD significantly increased in the switch condition. Serum Pen increased in both groups in a time-dependent manner. In the group switch, multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the initial change in serum intact procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) at 9 months was an independent predictor of changes in neck and total hip BMDs at 27 months (OR = 1.039, 95% CI 1.003-1.077, p = 0.032 for neck and OR = 1.055, 95% CI 1.009-1.104, p = 0.020 for total hip). CONCLUSIONS Monthly minodronate treatment increased BMDs in newly treated patients over 27 months. Serum Pen increased with M-MIN therapy, possibly indicating prolonged bone turnover. The initial 9-month changes in serum P1NP predicted the 27-month changes in hip BMDs when M-MIN replaced alendronate or risedronate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although there are several evidence-based treatments available to increase Bone Mineral Density (BMD) and reduce fracture risk in aging men and women, there are still uncertainties regarding which treatments are efficacious in reducing lifetime fracture risk in women with Anorexia Nervosa (AN). METHODS Medline, PsychInfo, Embase and the Cochrane Database were searched for English Language Studies. Inclusion criteria were studies of females of any age with AN who received pharmacological treatment with the primary aim to increase BMD or reduce fracture risk. Data were extracted from each study regarding pharmacological treatment and dosage used, BMD and bone formation marker outcomes; and participant characteristics including age, Body Mass Index (BMI), duration of AN, and duration of amenorrhea. RESULTS 675 studies were reviewed, of which 19 fit the inclusion criteria and were included in the final review, investigating a total of 1119 participants; 10 of the 19 included studies were double-blind RCTs. The remaining studies consisted of prospective observational studies, a retrospective cohort study, a case-control study and five non-randomised control trials. Bisphosphonates were effective in increasing BMD in adult women with AN, while estrogen administered transdermally resulted in significant increases in BMD in mature adolescents with AN. Administration of oral contraceptives (OC) did not significantly increase BMD in randomised or controlled trials, however, lifetime OC use was associated with higher spinal BMD. CONCLUSION Future research should clarify the safety of long-term bisphosphonate use in adult women with AN, and verify that transdermal estrogen replacement increases BMD in women with AN.

Abstract
This study aimed to clarify the effects of short-term bisphosphonate (BP) administration in Japanese osteoporotic patients retrospectively. Daily minodronate (MIN) at 1 mg/day (MIN group) or weekly risedronate (RIS) at 17.5 mg/week (RIS group) was primarily prescribed for each patient. We analyzed the laboratory data of 35 cases (18 of MIN and 17 of RIS) before the start of treatment and at 4 months afterward. The changes in 25(OH)D3, whole parathyroid hormone (PTH), serum pentosidine, and the bone turnover markers urinary cross-linked N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX), serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP)-5b, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP), and undercarboxylated osteocalcin were evaluated. Overall, serum 25(OH)D3 was significantly decreased from 21.8 to 18.4 ng/mL at 4 months, with a percent change of −14.7%. Whole PTH increased significantly from 23.4 to 30.0 pg/mL, with a percent change of 32.1%. Serum pentosidine rose from 0.0306 to 0.0337 μg/mL, with a percent change of 15.2%. In group comparisons, 25(OH)D3 and pentosidine showed comparable changes in both groups after 4 months of treatment, whereas whole PTH became significantly more increased in the MIN group. All bone turnover markers were significantly decreased at 4 months in both groups. Compared with the RIS group, the MIN group exhibited significantly larger value changes for urinary NTX, serum TRACP-5b, and BAP at the study end point. This study demonstrated that serum 25(OH)D3 became significantly decreased after only 4 months of BP treatment in Japanese osteoporotic patients and confirmed that MIN more strongly inhibited bone turnover as compared with RIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is evidence that postmenopausal women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on glucocorticoid (GC) therapy and bisphosphonate (BP) have an increased risk for atypical subtrochanteric and atypical diaphyseal femoral fracture (AFF). The underlying mechanism has not been elucidated so far. Using peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT), the aim of the present study was to compare bone geometry, volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) and bone strength of femoral shaft in BP-treated and BP-naïve postmenopausal women with RA. METHODS Prospective cross-sectional pQCT scans were taken at 33 % of total femur of BP-treated and BP-naïve RA patients. Bone parameters of the two groups were compared and correlated to disease characteristics and muscle cross-sectional area (CSA). RESULTS A total of 60 consecutive postmenopausal RA patients, 20 with BP therapy and 40 BP-naïve, were included in the study. The median age of the subjects was 63.5 years (range 48-85 years), and median disease duration (RA) was 12.0 years (range 2-47 years). Height and weight of the patients of the two groups were comparable. Women in the BP group were on average 4.3 years older (p = 0.044), and duration since menopause was on average 5.76 years longer (p = 0.045). In the BP group, there was a 13.31 % reduced muscle cross-sectional area around the proximal thigh (p = 0.013); cortical CSA was smaller by 5.3 % (p = 0.043); however, total and medullary CSA, as well as cortical vBMD and the polar bone stress-strain index of the femoral shaft were similar in the two groups. In regression analysis, age, time since menopause and muscular CSA were significant factors determining cortical CSA, cortical thickness and femoral index (p < 0.05). Regression model showed no significant effect of BP therapy on bone geometry and density of the femoral diaphysis at 33 %. CONCLUSION Differences in cortical CSA between BP-treated and BP-naïve postmenopausal RA patients were found to be associated only with differences in age, time since menopause and muscle cross-sectional area around the proximal thigh. In interpreting our results, it should be kept in mind that BP was given only to patients with increased fracture risk. This fact might have a confounding effect on our findings of differences between the two groups.

Abstract
Background Femoral neck fractures are a common occurrence in patients suffering from osteoporosis, while intracapsular hip fracture is rare in cases of osteoarthritis of the hip. Previous histomorphometric studies have emphasized the association between bone microarchitecture and the risk of low-impact fractures in osteoarthritis and osteoporosis patients. However, the strength of bone material is also a function of composition of organic bone matrix. In order to compare tissue material properties in these two clinical conditions, serum and bone pentosidine, a non-enzymatic collagen crosslinking element, was measured in patients who suffered a low-impact fracture, and in patients with advanced osteoarthritis. Methods The patient population consisted of 70 patients who underwent hemiarthroplasty surgery for a femoral neck fracture, and 41 patients with advanced hip joint osteoarthritis without a history of low- impact fracture, who were indicated for total hip joint replacement. Pentosidine content was analyzed in bone samples and in serum obtained from fracture and osteoarthritis patients using high performance liquid chromatography. Results Serum and bone concentrations of pentosidine were higher in subjects with hip fractures compared with osteoarthritis after adjustment for age, sex, weight, serum creatinine, and diabetes. A significant positive correlation was found between bone and serum pentosidine in fractured cases. A comparable relationship was also demonstrated for pentosidine levels in serum and bone relative to differentiation of fracture and osteoarthritis cases. Conclusions Serum pentosidine can be considered a potential biomarker for identification of subjects with impaired bone quality and bone strength.

Abstract
With the rapid increase in patients receiving bisphosphonates (BPs) for treating osteoporosis, one of the clinical complications associated with its long-term use is atypical femoral fractures (AFFs). Although the absolute risk for AFFs is low and it was a consensus that AFFs were acceptable compared with the amount of osteoporotic fractures BPs have prevented, epidemiological studies have proved that BPs had a strong association with AFFs and possibly more people were going to suffer from this adverse effect with wide prescriptions of this drug. In addition, AFFs seemed to have impaired ability to heal. Thus, to understand the mechanism(s) behind AFFs is important and desirable for considering preventive measures. This article reviewed the clinical features of AFFs as well as potential underlining pathological characteristics, such as the decreased turnover rate caused by BPs that led to multiple-level alternations, e.g., changes not only at cellular and tissue levels, but also related to changes in bone micro- and macrostructure and organic/inorganic contents, leading to potentially compromised mechanical properties of cortical bone when exposed to prolonged BP therapy. Severely suppressed bone turnover may also be the underlying mechanism for impaired fracture healing in patients with AFFs. The rising concerns about the risk for AFFs in nonosteoporotic patients receiving high-dose BPs to treat cancers were also discussed. Detailed investigation will help develop potential targeted pharmacological treatments such as parathyroid hormone. In addition, potential innovative internal fixation implants were discussed with regard to dynamic and biological fixation for enhancing AFF repair.
