Abstract
Introduction There is no cause -based treatment for Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (MRONJ). MRONJ is a morbid condition including exposed, infected bone and mandibular fractures in osteoporotic individuals and metastatic cancers patients treated with nitrogen containing bisphosphonates (NBP). NBPs inhibit farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FDPS) in the mevalonate pathway, depriving osteoclasts and other bone cells of small GTPases necessary for their function and survival. We test the hypothesis that geranylgeraniol (GGOH),a metabolite downstream of FDPS, when incorporated into a bone cement pellet, enhances osteoclast function and promotes local bone healing in in vitro and in a proven animal model of MRONJ. Methods 3H labelled GGOH (2 mM) was incorporated into a Hydroset bone cement pellet and release from the cement was assessed over time. To assess the effect on bone cell function, the GGOH-loaded cement was placed in a porous filter above cultured osteoclasts treated with bisphosphonate and the effect on osteoclast survival and function were measured. In a pilot study the effect of GGOH on osteotomy microstructure was measured in a rat model of MRONJ using a split mouth design. Results The release of GGOH from bone cement increased osteoclast survival/metabolic activity, and promoted resorption of the calcified substrate. In vivo released GGOH limited the effects of the bisphosphonate and promoted healing. In an animal pilot study, GGOH from the infused cement carrier stabilizes bone structure and restores the ability of osteoclasts to remodel. Conclusion These initial findings point to GGOH in a bone cement carrier as a useful therapeutic approach to prevent or mitigate the pathogenesis of MRONJ.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the preventive effect of teriparatide (TPD) administration on medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) before tooth extraction due to periodontal lesions in bilaterally ovariectomized female rats treated with zoledronic acid. Thirty skeletally mature Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: control (CONT, n = 10), zoledronic acid (ZA, n = 10), and zoledronic acid and teriparatide (ZA-TPD, n = 10). The rats were sacrificed 8 weeks after tooth extraction. Micro-computed tomography analysis of the tibia showed that bone mineral density was highest in the CONT, followed by that in the ZA and ZA-TPD groups (CONT/ZA, p = 0.009; CONT/ZA-TPD, p < 0.001; ZA/ZA-TPD, p < 0.001). In the trabecular bone analysis of the extraction site, significant differences in specific bone surface (CONT/ZA, p = 0.010; CONT/ZA-TPD, p = 0.007; ZA/ZA-TPD, p = 0.002) and trabecular thickness (CONT/ZA-TPD, p = 0.002; ZA/ZA-TPD, p = 0.002) were observed. Histological analyses of the extraction sites revealed characteristic MRONJ lesions in the ZA group. Osteonecrosis, inflammatory cells, and sequestrum were less frequently observed in the ZA-TPD group than in the ZA group. In conclusion, TPD administration before tooth extraction helped reduce the occurrence of MRONJ in rats treated with zoledronic acid, confirming its preventative effects.

[PMID: 35948539 PMCID: PMC9365764 DOI: 10.1038/s41368-022-00182-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2021] [Revised: 05/21/2022] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is primarily associated with administering antiresorptive or antiangiogenic drugs. Despite significant research on MRONJ, its pathogenesis and effective treatments are still not fully understood. Animal models can be used to simulate the pathophysiological features of MRONJ, serving as standardized in vivo experimental platforms to explore the pathogenesis and therapies of MRONJ. Rodent models exhibit excellent effectiveness and high reproducibility in mimicking human MRONJ, but classical methods cannot achieve a complete replica of the pathogenesis of MRONJ. Modified rodent models have been reported with improvements for better mimicking of MRONJ onset in clinic. This review summarizes representative classical and modified rodent models of MRONJ created through various combinations of systemic drug induction and local stimulation and discusses their effectiveness and efficiency. Currently, there is a lack of a unified assessment system for MRONJ models, which hinders a standard definition of MRONJ-like lesions in rodents. Therefore, this review comprehensively summarizes assessment systems based on published peer-review articles, including new approaches in gross observation, histological assessments, radiographic assessments, and serological assessments. This review can serve as a reference for model establishment and evaluation in future preclinical studies on MRONJ.

Nrf2 in the Field of Dentistry with Special Attention to NLRP3. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11010149. [PMID: 35052653 PMCID: PMC8772975 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11010149] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2021] [Revised: 01/06/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this review article was to summarize the functional implications of the nuclear factor E2-related factor or nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2), with special attention to the NACHT (nucleotide-binding oligomerization), LRR (leucine-rich repeat), and PYD (pyrin domain) domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in the field of dentistry. NLRP3 plays a crucial role in the progression of inflammatory and adaptive immune responses throughout the body. It is already known that this inflammasome is a key regulator of several systemic diseases. The initiation and activation of NLRP3 starts with the oral microbiome and its association with the pathogenesis and progression of several oral diseases, including periodontitis, periapical periodontitis, and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The possible role of the inflammasome in oral disease conditions may involve the aberrant regulation of various response mechanisms, not only in the mouth but in the whole body. Understanding the cellular and molecular biology of the NLRP3 inflammasome and its relationship to Nrf2 is necessary for the rationale when suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target for treatment and prevention of oral inflammatory and immunological disorders. In this review, we highlighted the current knowledge about NLRP3, its likely role in the pathogenesis of various inflammatory oral processes, and its crosstalk with Nrf2, which might offer future possibilities for disease prevention and targeted therapy in the field of dentistry and oral health.

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
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare alveolar healing after tooth extraction in two experimental rat models using continuous or discontinuous dosing of sodium alendronate (ALN). DESIGN Forty-eight male Wistar rats were divided into eight experimental groups (n = 6/group) and administered ALN (2.5, 5.0, or 7.5 mg/kg) by gavage, weekly, either intermittently or following a continuous regimen (2.5, 5.0, or 7.5 mg/kg) before tooth extraction. The positive control rats were administered zoledronic acid (ZA; 0.2 mg/kg, intravenous), whereas negative control rats received sterile saline (0.9% NaCl, gavage). RESULTS Only the ZA-treated animals showed a larger radiolucent extraction site area compared to the saline group (p = 0.007). Small areas of bone tissue filling the alveoli were visualized in the 7.5 mg/kg continuous ALN group and compared with the saline group (p < 0.001). Increased amounts of empty osteocyte lacunae (p < 0.001) and osteoclasts with signs of apoptosis (p = 0.004) were observed in the continuous ALN groups (2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 mg/kg) compared with the saline group. Increased immunolabeling for TNF-α was observed in the 7.5 mg/kg discontinuous ALN group and all continuous ALN groups compared with the saline group (p < 0.001). The number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclasts was higher in the two continuous ALN groups (5.0 and 7.5 mg/kg) than in the saline group (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Continuous administration of ALN impaired post-extraction alveolar bone healing in rats; however, discontinuation of ALN administration before tooth extraction allowed for adequate post-dental extraction alveolar healing.

J Bone Miner Res 2021; 36:1866-1878.

Abstract
Among the bisphosphonates (BPs), nitrogen-containing BPs (N-BPs) have much stronger anti-bone-resorptive actions than non-N-BPs. However, N-BPs have various side effects such as acute influenza-like reactions after their initial administration and osteonecrosis of the jawbones after repeated administration. The mechanisms underlying such effects remain unclear. To overcome these problems, it is important to profile the inflammatory nature of N-BPs. Here, we analyzed the inflammatory reactions induced in mouse ear pinnae by the N-BPs alendronate (Ale) and zoledronate (Zol). We found the following: (i) Ale and Zol each induced two phases of inflammation (early weak and late strong ear swelling); (ii) both phases were augmented by lipopolysaccharides (LPSs; cell-surface constituent of gram-negative bacteria, including oral bacteria), but prevented by inhibitors of the phosphate transporters of solute carrier 20/34 (SLC20/SLC34); (iii) macrophages and neutrophils were involved in both phases of Ale+LPS-induced ear-swelling; (iv) Ale increased or tended to increase various cytokines, and LPS augmented these effects, especially that on interleukin 1β (IL-1β); (v) adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was involved in both phases, and Ale alone or Ale+LPS increased ATP in ear pinnae; (vi) the augmented late-phase swelling induced by Ale+LPS depended on both IL-1 and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs; neutrophil-derived net-like complexes); (vii) neutrophils, together with macrophages and dendritic cells, also functioned as IL-1β-producing cells, and upon stimulation with IL-1β, neutrophils produced NETs; (viii) stimulation of the purinergic 2X7 (P2X7) receptors by ATP induced IL-1β in ear pinnae; (ix) NET formation by Ale+LPS was confirmed in gingiva, too. These results suggest that (i) N-BPs induce both early-phase and late-phase inflammation via ATP-production and P2X7 receptor stimulation; (ii) N-BPs and LPS induce mutually augmenting responses both early and late phases via ATP-mediated IL-1β production by neutrophils, macrophages, and/or dendritic cells; and (iii) NET production by IL-1β-stimulated neutrophils may mediate the late phase, leading to prolonged inflammation. These results are discussed in relation to the side effects seen in patients treated with N-BPs. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Background Zoledronic acid (Zol), one of the bisphosphonates, is frequently utilized for the treatment of osteoporosis and bone metastasis. However, the onset of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) following dental treatments has become a serious issue. We reported previously that osteonecrosis can be induced by Zol and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in vivo, suggesting the involvement of Zol in inflammation. Macrophages are divided into M1/M2 macrophages. M1 macrophages are involved in the induction and exacerbation of inflammation and express proinflammatory mediators including interleukin (IL)-1. On the other hand, M2 macrophages are associated with anti-inflammatory reactions through the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-10. In the present study, we clarified the effects of Zol on M1/M2 macrophage polarization in vitro. Methods Human monocytic THP-1 cells were polarized to macrophage-like cells by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), and, after culturing for an additional 24 h with or without Zol, then polarized to M1 macrophages by LPS or to M2 macrophages by IL-4. Cell viability was examined by the WST-8 assay. Gene expression was confirmed by the real-time polymerase chain reaction. Protein expression was detected by western blotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Results Zol treatment upregulated the expression of IL-1β mRNA and protein through NLRP3 inflammasome activation in LPS-treated THP-1 cells. Zol treatment did not affect the expression of IL-10, IL-1ra, or CD206 in IL-4-treated THP-1 cells. Conclusions Zol enhanced LPS-induced M1, but not M2, macrophage polarization through the NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent pathway, resulting in the production of inflammatory cytokines in THP-1 cells.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES TGF-β1 is a cytokine that may induce both osteoneogenesis through Runx-2 or fibrosis via the transcription of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). Because it has been previously known that alendronate increases the level of TGF-β1 and that under the usual condition of bone metabolism the estrogen may prevent the fibrotic effect of TGF-β1, the aim of this study was to evaluate if alendronate alters the cellular differentiation process post calvarial surgery in estrogen-deficient specimens. MATERIALS AND METHODS A transosseous defect that was 5 mm in diameter was created on the calvarium of each of 32 female rats with previous ovarian-salpingo-oophorectomy. All defects were treated with autografts, and 16 rats received the administration of 1 mg/kg of alendronate three times a week until euthanasia on the 15th and 60th day post surgery. Histomorphometric and immunohistochemical analyses of the expression of TGF-β1, estrogen receptor alpha nuclear (α-ER), α-SMA, BMPR1B, and Runx-2 were performed, and ELISA was used to measure the level of estrogen. RESULTS All animals demonstrated low levels of estrogen post ovarian-salpingo-oophorectomy. The histological results demonstrated larger bone matrix deposition in specimens treated with alendronate on the 15th day post surgery. The result was associated with a higher co-expression of TGF-β1, BMPR1B, and Runx-2 when compared with the control group. In addition, on the 60th day post surgery, the increase of bone matrix deposition from 15th to 60th day was discrete in specimens treated with alendronate compared with the control group. This result coincided with the intense simultaneous expression of TGF-β1, α-ER, and α-SMA, whereas the expression of BMPR1B and Runx-2 decreased. CONCLUSION The prolonged administration of alendronate altered the cranial repair in ovarian-salpingo-oophorectomized specimens due to the simultaneous occurrence of low estrogen and the presence of TGF-β1+/α-ER+ inducing the presence of α-SMA+, whereas BMPR1B and Runx-2 were suppressed. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The prolonged administration of alendronate alters osteoneogenesis and induces an unusual microenvironment in the bone that seems to imitate the physiological tissue damage that culminates in the loss of the functional layer of endometrium.
