BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2023; 24:200. [PMID: 36927417 PMCID: PMC10018961 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-06318-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2022] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postmenopausal osteoporosis is a widespread health concern due to its prevalence among older adults and an associated high risk of fracture. The downregulation of bone regeneration delays fracture healing. Activated fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) accelerates bone regeneration at juvenile age and downregulates bone mineralization at all ages. However, the impact of FGFR3 signaling on bone regeneration and bone mineralization post-menopause is still unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of FGFR3 signaling on bone regeneration and bone mineralization during menopause by developing a distraction osteogenesis (DO) mouse model after ovariectomy (OVX) using transgenic mice with activated FGFR3 driven by Col2a1 promoter (Fgfr3 mice). METHODS The OVX or sham operations were performed in 8-week-old female Fgfr3 and wild-type mice. After 8 weeks of OVX surgery, DO surgery in the lower limb was performed. The 5-day-latency period followed by performing distraction for 9 days. Bone mineral density (BMD) and bone regeneration was assessed by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) scan and soft X-ray. Bone volume in the distraction area was also evaluated by histological analysis after 7 days at the end of distraction. Osteogenic differentiation and mineralization of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) derived from each mouse after 8 weeks of the OVX or sham operations were also evaluated with and without an inhibitor for FGFR3 signaling (meclozine). RESULTS BMD decreased after OVX in both groups, and it further deteriorated in Fgfr3 mice. Poor callus formation after DO was also observed in both groups with OVX, and the amount of regenerated bone was further decreased in Fgfr3 mice. Similarly, histological analysis revealed that Fgfr3 OVX mice showed lower bone volume. Osteogenic differentiation and mineralization of BMSCs were also deteriorated in Fgfr3 OVX mice. An inhibitor for FGFR3 signaling dramatically reversed the inhibitory effect of OVX and FGFR3 signaling on BMSC mineralization. CONCLUSION Upregulated FGFR3 decreased newly regenerated bone after DO and BMD in OVX mice. FGFR3 signaling can be a potential therapeutic target in patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis.

The effect of osteoporosis and its treatment on fracture healing a systematic review of animal and clinical studies. Bone Rep 2021; 15:101117. [PMID: 34458509 PMCID: PMC8379440 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2021.101117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2021] [Revised: 07/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Osteoporosis is characterised by low bone mass and micro-architectural deterioration of bone structure. Its treatment is directed at the processes of bone formation or resorption, that are of utmost importance in fracture healing. We provide a comprehensive review of the literature aiming to summarize and clarify the effects of osteoporosis and its treatment on fracture healing. Material and methods A literature search was conducted in PubMed and Embase (OVID version). In vivo animal and human studies on long bone fractures were included. A total of 93 articles were included for this review; 23 studies on the effect of osteoporosis (18 animal and 5 clinical studies) and 70 studies on the effect of osteoporosis treatment (41 animal, 26 clinical studies and 3 meta-analyses) on fracture healing. Results In animal fracture models osteoporosis was associated with decreased callus formation and bone growth, bone mineral density, biomechanical strength and delayed cellular and differentiation processes during fracture healing. Two large databases identified osteoporosis as a risk factor for non-union whereas three other studies did not. One of those three studies however found a prolonged healing time in patients with osteoporosis. Anti-osteoporosis medication showed inconsistent effects on fracture healing in both non-osteoporotic and osteoporotic animal models. Only the parathyroid hormone and anti-resorption medication were related to improved fracture healing and delayed remodelling respectively. Clinical studies performed in predominantly hip and distal radius fracture patients showed no effect of bisphosphonates on fracture healing. Parathyroid hormone reduced time to union in several clinical trials performed in mainly hip fracture patients, but this did not result in decreased delayed or non-union rates. Conclusion Evidence that substantiates the negative influence of osteoporosis on fracture healing is predominantly from animal studies and to a lesser extent from clinical studies, since convincing clinical evidence lacks. Bisphosphonates and parathyroid hormone may be used during fracture healing, since no clear negative effect has been shown. Parathyroid hormone might even decrease time to fracture union, without decreasing union rate. Osteoporosis negatively influences fracture healing in animal models. There is no convincing evidence for a similar effect in humans. In animals, bisphosphonates delay bone remodelling In animals, parathyroid hormone improves fracture healing In humans, anti-osteoporotic drugs do not interfere with fracture healing.

Abstract
The fracture repair process is known to be delayed in postmenopausal women, under estrogen-deficient status. Osteoporotic fracture mainly occurs in the metaphyseal region of the long bone; however, most studies on fracture healing have focused on the diaphyseal region. In this study, we compared the repair process between metaphysis and diaphysis of ovariectomized (OVX) and Sham mice, and analyzed the effects of short-term estrogen administration in OVX mice. Mice were divided into four experimental groups, including Sham, OVX, OVX + vehicle, and OVX + 17β-estradiol (E2). Bone apertures were formed in the tibial metaphysis and diaphysis. The samples were collected and examined by micro-computed tomography, and using histological, histochemical, and immunohistochemical analysis at different time points after the surgery. The cartilaginous callus was formed at the diaphysis site of both the groups, which was sequentially replaced by bone on the periosteum side. Medullary callus was formed in all the groups; however, the volume of the callus in OVX mice was significantly lesser (˜30%) than that in Sham mice. Furthermore, in the metaphysis, no differences were observed in the medullary callus and bone mineral density between the two groups from day 21 to 28. The diaphysis of OVX group was not completely repaired even by day 28. In both the sites of OVX mice, ALP activity and disappearance of Gr-1 positive cells were delayed compared to that of Sham. Estrogen administration improved medullary callus formation in the diaphysis, however not in the metaphysis. The effect of ovariectomy on the repair process in diaphysis was greater than that in metaphysis. Our findings clarify the differences between the metaphysis and diaphysis repair process using OVX mouse model and suggest that the estrogen sensitivities differ between the sites during the bone repair process.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is a complex process that is influenced by tissue interactions, inflammatory responses, and progenitor cells. Diseases, lifestyle, or multiple trauma can disturb fracture healing, which might result in prolonged healing duration or even failure. The current gold standard therapy in these cases are bone grafts. However, they are associated with several disadvantages, e.g., donor site morbidity and availability of appropriate material. Bone tissue engineering has been proposed as a promising alternative. The success of bone-tissue engineering depends on the administered cells, osteogenic differentiation, and secretome. Different stem cell types offer advantages and drawbacks in this field, while adipose-derived stem or stromal cells (ASCs) are in particular promising. They show high osteogenic potential, osteoinductive ability, and immunomodulation properties. Furthermore, they can be harvested through a noninvasive process in high numbers. ASCs can be induced into osteogenic lineage through bioactive molecules, i.e., growth factors and cytokines. Moreover, their secretome, in particular extracellular vesicles, has been linked to fracture healing. The aim of this review is a comprehensive overview of ASCs for bone regeneration and bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Disrupted bone metabolism can lead to delayed fracture healing or non-union, often requiring intervention to correct. Although the current clinical gold standard bone graft implants and commercial bone graft substitutes are effective, they possess inherent drawbacks and are limited in their therapeutic capacity for delayed union and non-union repair. Research into advanced biomaterials and therapeutic biomolecules has shown great potential for driving bone regeneration, although few have achieved commercial success or clinical translation. There are a number of therapeutics, which influence bone remodelling, currently licensed for clinical use. Providing an alternative local delivery context for these therapies, can enhance their efficacy and is an emerging trend in bone regenerative therapeutic strategies. This review aims to provide an overview of how biomaterial design has advanced from currently available commercial bone graft substitutes to accommodate previously licensed therapeutics that target local bone restoration and healing in a synergistic manner, and the challenges faced in progressing this research towards clinical reality.

Abstract
[Purpose] This study assessed the effects of combined application of raloxifene and
aerobic exercise on senile osteoporosis. [Subjects and Methods] A total of 70 elderly
patients with osteoporosis, who treated at our hospital between April 2013 and August
2014, were divided into equal-sized observation and control groups. The control group was
administered raloxifene, whereas the observation group received raloxifene treatment plus
aerobic exercise. [Results] Outpatient outcomes were considered dependent variables. After
treatment, the two groups differed significantly in terms of lumbar spine (L2–L4) and
proximal femoral bone mineral density. The urine pyridine/creatinine ratio decreased
significantly and serum calcitonin level increased significantly in the observation group.
These differences were statistically significant. [Conclusion] Raloxifene combined with
aerobic exercise therapy significantly improves bone density and promotes bone formation
in patients with senile osteoporosis.

Abstract
In estrogen-deficient, postmenopausal women, vitamin D and calcium deficiency increase osteoporotic fracture risk. Therefore, a new rat model of combined ovariectomy and multiple-deficient diet was established to mimic human postmenopausal osteoporotic conditions under nutrient deficiency. Sprague-Dawley rats were untreated (control), laparatomized (sham), or ovariectomized and received a deficient diet (OVX-Diet). Multiple analyses involving structure (micro-computed tomography and biomechanics), cellularity (osteoblasts and osteoclasts), bone matrix (mRNA expression and IHC), and mineralization were investigated for a detailed characterization of osteoporosis. The study involved long-term observation up to 14 months (M14) after laparotomy or after OVX-Diet, with intermediate time points at M3 and M12. OVX-Diet rats showed enhanced osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. Bone matrix markers (biglycan, COL1A1, tenascin C, and fibronectin) and low-density lipoprotein-5 (bone mass marker) were down-regulated at M12 in OVX-Diet rats. However, up-regulation of matrix markers and existence of unmineralized osteoid were seen at M3 and M14. Osteoclast markers (matrix metallopeptidase 9 and cathepsin K) were up-regulated at M14. Micro-computed tomography and biomechanics confirmed bone fragility of OVX-Diet rats, and quantitative RT-PCR revealed a higher turnover rate in the humerus than in lumbar vertebrae, suggesting enhanced bone formation and resorption in OVX-Diet rats. Such bone remodeling caused disturbed bone mineralization and severe bone loss, as reported in patients with high-turnover, postmenopausal osteoporosis. Therefore, this rat model may serve as a suitable tool to evaluate osteoporotic drugs and new biomaterials or fracture implants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to test a new method of dental panoramic tomogram (DPT) analysis to show the differences of mandibular bone volume and relative bone density (RBD) in order to detect osteoporosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A case-control study compared 62 women with osteoporosis (O) and 24 women with osteopenia (o) to a control group of 33 women with normal bone mineral density (N). DPTs were analyzed using an original method resulting in anatomic and RBD indexes as well as using previously described methods: panoramic mandibular index (PMI) and mandibular cortical width (MCW). RESULTS One anatomic and four RBD indexes differed statistically significantly between the group O and N and three RBD indexes differed statistically significantly between o and N. PMI did not show statistically significant differences between the groups. The MCW differed significantly at two measured sites between O and N. CONCLUSIONS Average values of RBD indexes were statistically significantly different between O and N and also between o and N. Important differences regarding RBD were confirmed using a new and original method of common DPT analysis. This method could serve as a screening tool for osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is an increasingly popular technique used to stimulate new bone formation to treat orthopedic disorders resulting from bone defects and deficits. Because of various possible complications that can occur during the long consolidation period, the development of procedures to accelerate regenerated ossification is clearly desirable. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of single insertions of bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2), delivered by tri-calcium phosphate (TCP)/hydroxyapatite (HA), administered at osteotomy sites, on the rate of new bone formation during DO in a rat model. METHODS Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 12 weeks and weighing a mean (± standard deviation) of 401 ± 14 g, were used in this study. The animals were randomized into three groups of 12 rats each. Group I served as a control, group II was treated with only TCP/HA, and group III was treated with recombinant human (rh) BMP-2-coated TCP/HA. Materials were inserted into the medullary canal at the femoral osteotomy site at the end of the lengthening period. After a 7-day latent phase, distraction was commenced on day 0 at a rate of 0.50 mm every 6 h for 5 days (2 mm daily), resulting in a total of 10 mm of lengthening by day 5. At two different time-points [at 4 weeks (day 33) and 8 weeks (day 61) after cessation of distraction], the progress of bone formation was determined with microcomputed tomography (micro-CT), histology and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The mean and standard deviation of the values obtained from the experiment were computed and statistical analyses performed using anova. Statistical significance was established at P < 0.05. Results. Radiographically, all group III rat femurs exhibited bridging callus formation 8 weeks after cessation of distraction, whereas group II rat femurs demonstrated non-bridging callus formation. None of the group I rat femurs showed callus in the central zone of the distraction gap. For micro-CT, bone formation and remodeling of the distraction regeneration with beta-TCP/HA coated with rhBMP-2 had greater values than the control sides at all time-points. Two-dimensional quantitative analysis of the distraction regeneration showed that the bone volume of group III had higher values than groups I and II at 4 weeks (P < 0.05). This difference was also evident at 8 weeks. With hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, the control group (group I) did not show any bone tissue at the distraction site. In group II at 4 weeks, abundant fibrous tissue surrounding the particles was visible with some areas of woven bone. At 8 weeks, the woven bone covered the particles but not the whole circumference. In group III at 4 weeks, much of the woven bone surrounded the particle with some fibrocartilagenous materials. At 8 weeks, woven bone covering the whole circumference of the particles was visible. CONCLUSIONS Application of rhBMP-2, at the end of the rather rapid distraction period, as a single bolus significantly increased the osteogenic process, while beta-TCP/HA behaved effectively as a sustained delivery system for this osteoinductive protein.
