PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 325:125035. [PMID: 39217957 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2024.125035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2024] [Revised: 08/06/2024] [Accepted: 08/22/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
This study presents a novel methodology for optimizing the number of Raman spectra required per sample for human bone compositional analysis. The methodology integrates Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS). We demonstrate the robustness of ANN in enabling prediction of Raman spectroscopy-based bone quality properties even with limited spectral inputs. The ANN algorithms tailored to individual sex and age groups, which enhance the specificity and accuracy of predictions in bone quality properties. In addition, ANN guided MCS systematically explores the variability and uncertainty inherent in different sample sizes and spectral datasets, leading to the identification of an optimal number of spectra per sample for characterizing human bone tissues. The findings suggest that as low as 2 spectra are sufficient for biochemical analysis of bone, with R2 values between real and predicted values of v1/PO4/Amide I and ∼I1670/I1640 ratios, ranging from 0.60 to 0.89. Our results also suggest that up to 8 spectra could be optimal when balancing other factors. This optimized approach streamlines experimental workflows, reduces data and acquisition costs. Additionally, our study highlights the potential for advancing Raman spectroscopy in bone research through the innovative integration of ANN-guided probabilistic modeling techniques. This research could significantly contribute to the broader landscape of bone quality analyses by establishing a precedent for optimizing the number of Raman spectra with sophisticated computational tools. It also sets a novel platform for future optimization studies in Raman spectroscopy applications in biomedical field.

Radiographical Diagnostic Evaluation of Mandibular Cortical Index Classification and Mandibular Cortical Width in Female Patients Prescribed Antiosteoporosis Medication: A Retrospective Cohort Study. Diagnostics (Basel) 2024; 14:1009. [PMID: 38786307 PMCID: PMC11119882 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics14101009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Osteoporosis is often detected late and becomes severe because of a lack of subjective symptoms. Digital panoramic radiography (DPR) has been reported to be useful for osteoporosis screening based on the morphological classification of the mandibular inferior cortex. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the mandibular cortical index (MCI) in the diagnosis of osteoporosis in a group of patients who were and were not using antiosteoporosis medication (AOM). Three hundred and fifty female patients aged 40 years or older who had DPR imaging performed during a 6-year period from December 2015 to February 2022 met the selection criteria. Two examiners recorded mandibular cortical width and MCI from the images. These results were statistically examined together with the patients' demographic data. Forty-nine patients were using AOM (13 nonbisphosphonate/denosumab and 36 bisphosphonate/denosumab). MCI type 3 was the most common in the AOM group. In the MCI classification, DPR imaging among the AOM group was more sensitive (0.95) than that of the control group. This method of estimating osteoporosis based on MCI classification using DPR images has high sensitivity, especially in patients using AOM, suggesting that this method is useful as a screening test.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) alloys are widely used in bone fixation and bone repair as biodegradable bone-implant materials. However, their clinical application is limited due to their fast corrosion rate and poor mechanical stability. Here, the development of Mg-2Zn-0.5Ca-0.5Sr (MZCS) and Mg-2Zn-0.5Ca-0.5Zr (MZCZ) alloys with improved mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, cytocompatibility, osteogenesis performance, and antibacterial capability is reported. The hot-extruded (HE) MZCZ sample exhibits the highest ultimate tensile strength of 255.8 ± 2.4 MPa and the highest yield strength of 208.4 ± 2.8 MPa and an elongation of 15.7 ± 0.5%. The HE MZCS sample shows the highest corrosion resistance, with the lowest corrosion current density of 0.2 ± 0.1 µA cm-2 and the lowest corrosion rate of 4 ± 2 µm per year obtained from electrochemical testing, and a degradation rate of 368 µm per year and hydrogen evolution rate of 0.83 ± 0.03 mL cm-2 per day obtained from immersion testing. The MZCZ sample shows the highest cell viability in relation to MC3T3-E1 cells among all alloy extracts, indicating good cytocompatibility except at 25% concentration. Furthermore, the MZCZ alloy shows good antibacterial capability against Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract
High rates of ligament damage require replacements; however, current synthetic materials have issues with bone integration leading to implant failure. Here we introduce an artificial ligament that has the required mechanical properties and can integrate with the host bone and restore movement in animals. The ligament is assembled from aligned carbon nanotubes formed into hierarchical helical fibres bearing nanometre and micrometre channels. Osseointegration of the artificial ligament is observed in an anterior cruciate ligament replacement model where clinical polymer controls showed bone resorption. A higher pull-out force is found after a 13-week implantation in rabbit and ovine models, and animals can run and jump normally. The long-term safety of the artificial ligament is demonstrated, and the pathways involved in integration are studied.

Abstract
Raman spectroscopy shows great potential for practical clinical applications. By analyzing the structure and composition of molecules through real-time, non-destructive measurements of the scattered light from living cells and tissues, it offers valuable insights. The Raman spectral data directly link to the molecular composition of the cells and tissues and provides a "molecular fingerprint" for various disease states. This review focuses on the practical and clinical applications of Raman spectroscopy, especially in the early detection of human diseases. Identifying predisease, which marks the transition from a healthy to a disease state, is crucial for effective interventions to prevent disease onset. Raman spectroscopy can reveal biological processes occurring during the transition states and may eventually detect the molecular dynamics in predisease conditions.

Strontium Ranelate Inhibits Osteoclastogenesis through NF-κB-Pathway-Dependent Autophagy. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:bioengineering10030365.

Abstract
Strontium ranelate (SR) is a pharmaceutical agent used for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis and fragility fracture. However, little attention has been paid to the effect of SR on alveolar bone remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement and its underlying mechanism. Here, we investigated the influence of SR on orthodontic tooth movement and tooth resorption in Sprague–Dawley rats and the relationship between the nuclear factor–kappa B (NF-κB) pathway, autophagy, and osteoclastogenesis after the administration of SR in vitro and in vivo. In this study, it was found that SR reduced the expression of autophagy-related proteins at the pressure side of the first molars during orthodontic tooth movement. Similarly, the expression of these autophagy-related proteins and the size and number of autophagosomes were downregulated by SR in vitro. The results also showed that SR reduced the number of osteoclasts and suppressed orthodontic tooth movement and root resorption in rats, which could be partially restored using rapamycin, an autophagy inducer. Autophagy was attenuated after pre-osteoclasts were treated with Bay 11-7082, an NF-κB pathway inhibitor, while SR reduced the expression of the proteins central to the NF-κB pathway. Collectively, this study revealed that SR might suppress osteoclastogenesis through NF-κB-pathway-dependent autophagy, resulting in the inhibition of orthodontic tooth movement and root resorption in rats, which might offer a new insight into the treatment of malocclusion and bone metabolic diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine changes of subchondral bone composition, micro-structure, bone marrow adiposity and micro-vascular perfusion in end-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) compared to osteoarthritis (OA) using a combined in vivo and ex vivo approach. DESIGN Male patients up to 70 years old referred for total hip replacement surgery for end-stage ONFH were included (n = 14). Fifteen patients with OA were controls. Pre-operative MRI was used to assess bone perfusion (dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) sequences) and marrow fat content (chemical shift imaging). Three distinct zones of femoral head subchondral bone - necrotic, sclerotic, distant - were compared between groups. After surgery, plugs were sampled in these zones and Raman spectroscopy was applied to characterize bone mineral and organic components (old and newly-formed), and contrast-enhanced micro-computed tomography (CE-μCT) to determine bone micro-structural parameters and volume of bone marrow adipocytes, using conventional 2D histology as a reference. RESULTS In the necrotic zone of ONFH patients compared to OA patients: 1) the subchondral plate did not exhibit significant changes in composition nor structure; 2) the volume fraction of subchondral trabecular bone was significantly lower; 3) type-B carbonate substitution was less pronounced, 4) collagen maturity was more pronounced; and 5) bone marrow adipocytes were significantly depleted. The sclerotic zone from the ONFH group showed greater trabecular thickness, and higher DCE-MRI AUC and Ktrans. Volume fraction of subchondral bone, trabecular number, and Kep were significantly lower in the distant zone of the ONFH group. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated alterations of subchondral bone microstructure, composition, perfusion and/or adipose content in all zones of the femoral head.

Abstract
Despite the development of non-invasive methods, bone histomorphometry remains the only method to analyze bone at the tissue and cell levels. Quantitative analysis of transiliac bone sections requires strict methodologic conditions but since its foundation more 60 years ago, this methodology has progressed. Our purpose was to review the evolution of bone histomorphometry over the years and its contribution to the knowledge of bone tissue metabolism under normal and pathological conditions and the understanding of the action mechanisms of therapeutic drugs in humans. The two main applications of bone histomorphometry are the diagnosis of bone diseases and research. It is warranted for the diagnosis of mineralization defects as in osteomalacia, of other causes of osteoporosis as bone mastocytosis, or the classification of renal osteodystrophy. Bone biopsies are required in clinical trials to evaluate the safety and mechanism of action of new therapeutic agents and were applied to anti-osteoporotic agents such as bisphosphonates and denosumab, an anti-RANKL, which induces a marked reduction of the bone turnover with a consequent elongation of the mineralization period. In contrast, an increased bone turnover with an extension of the formation site is observed with teriparatide. Romosozumab, an anti-sclerostin, has a dual effect with an early increased formation and reduced resorption. Bone histomorphometric studies allow us to understand the mechanism of coupling between formation and resorption and to evaluate the respective role of bone modeling and remodeling. The adaptation of new image analysis techniques will help bone biopsy analysis in the future.

Abstract
The estimation of the postmortem interval (PMI) from skeletal remains represents a challenging task in forensic science. PMI is often influenced by extrinsic factors (humidity, dryness, scavengers, etc.) and intrinsic factors (age, sex, pathology, way of life, medical treatments, etc.). Raman spectroscopy combined with multivariate data analysis represents a promising tool for forensic anthropologists. Despite all the advantages of the technique, Raman spectra of skeletal remains are influenced by these extrinsic and intrinsic factors, which impairs precision and reproducibility. Both parameters have to reach a high level of confidence when such spectroscopy is used as a way to predict PMI. As a consequence, advanced multivariate data analysis is necessary to quantify the effect of all factors to improve the estimation of the PMI. The objective of this work is to evaluate the effect of intrinsic and extrinsic factors on the Raman spectra of skeletal remains. We designed a protocol close to a real-world scenario. We used ANOVA-simultaneous component analysis (ASCA) to unmix and quantify the effect of 1 intrinsic (source body) and 1 extrinsic (burial time) factors on the Raman spectra. In our model, the burial time was found to generate the highest variability after the source body. ASCA showed that the variability due to the burial time has 2 mixed contributions. Seasonal variations are the first contribution. The second contribution is attributed to diagenesis. A decrease in the mineral bands and an increase in the organic bands are observed. The source body was also found to contribute to the variability in Raman spectra. ASCA showed that the source body induces variability related to the composition of bones. This quantification cannot be assessed by basic chemometrics methods such as PCA. The results of this study highlighted the need to use an advanced chemometric data analysis tool (like ASCA) combined with Raman spectroscopy to estimate the postmortem interval.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, is the most common bone disorder worldwide characterized by low bone mineral density, leaving affected bones vulnerable to fracture. Bone homeostasis depends on the precise balance between bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone matrix formation by mesenchymal lineage osteoblasts, and involves a series of complex and highly regulated steps. Bone homeostasis will be disrupted when the speed of bone resorption is faster than bone formation. Based on various regulatory mechanisms of bone homeostasis, a series of drugs targeting osteoporosis have emerged in clinical practice, including bisphosphonates, selective estrogen receptor modulators, calcitonin, molecular-targeted drugs and so on. However, many drugs have major adverse effects or are unsuitable for long-term use. Therefore, it is very urgent to find more effective therapeutic drugs based on the new pathogenesis of osteoporosis. In this review, we summarize novel mechanisms involved in the pathological process of osteoporosis, including the roles of gut microbiome, autophagy, iron balance and cellular senescence. Based on the above pathological mechanism, we found promising drugs for osteoporosis treatment, such as: probiotics, alpha-ketoglutarate, senolytics and hydrogen sulfide. This new finding may provide an important basis for elucidating the complex pathological mechanisms of osteoporosis and provide promising drugs for clinical osteoporosis treatment.

Abstract
Understanding the properties of bone is of both fundamental and clinical relevance. The basis of bone’s quality and mechanical resilience lies in its nanoscale building blocks (i.e., mineral, collagen, non-collagenous proteins, and water) and their complex interactions across length scales. Although the structure–mechanical property relationship in healthy bone tissue is relatively well characterized, not much is known about the molecular-level origin of impaired mechanics and higher fracture risks in skeletal disorders such as osteoporosis or Paget’s disease. Alterations in the ultrastructure, chemistry, and nano-/micromechanics of bone tissue in such a diverse group of diseased states have only been briefly explored. Recent research is uncovering the effects of several non-collagenous bone matrix proteins, whose deficiencies or mutations are, to some extent, implicated in bone diseases, on bone matrix quality and mechanics. Herein, we review existing studies on ultrastructural imaging—with a focus on electron microscopy—and chemical, mechanical analysis of pathological bone tissues. The nanometric details offered by these reports, from studying knockout mice models to characterizing exact disease phenotypes, can provide key insights into various bone pathologies and facilitate the development of new treatments.
