Abstract
The maternal skeleton experiences significant bone loss during lactation, followed by rapid restoration post weaning. Parathyroid-related protein (PTHrP)-induced acidification of the perilacunar matrix by osteocytes is crucial in this process, yet its mechanism remains unclear. Here, we identify Cx43 hemichannels (HCs) as key mediators of osteocyte acidification and perilacunar-canalicular remodeling (PLR). Utilizing transgenic mouse models expressing dominant-negative Cx43 mutants, we show that mice with impaired Cx43 HCs exhibit attenuated lactation-induced responses compared to wild-type and only gap junction-impaired groups, including lacunar enlargement, upregulation of PLR genes, and bone loss with compromised mechanical properties. Furthermore, inhibition of HCs by a Cx43 antibody blunts PTHrP-induced calcium influx and protein kinase A activation, followed by impaired osteocyte acidification. Additionally, impeded HCs suppress bone recovery during the post-lactation period. Our findings highlight the pivotal role of Cx43 HCs in orchestrating dynamic bone changes during lactation and recovery by regulating acidification and remodeling enzyme expression.

Abstract
Colostrum and milk offer a complete diet and vital immune protection for newborn mammals with developing immune systems. High immunoglobulin levels in colostrum serve as the primary antibody source for newborn piglets and calves. Subsequent milk feeding support continued local antibody protection against enteric pathogens, as well as maturation of the developing immune system and provide nutrients for newborn growth. Mammals have evolved hormonal strategies that modulate the levels of immunoglobulins in colostrum and milk to facilitate effective lactational immunity. In addition, hormones regulate the gut-mammary gland-secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) axis in pregnant mammals, controlling the levels of sIgA in milk, which serves as the primary source of IgA for piglets and helps them resist pathogens such as PEDV and TGEV. In the present study, we review the existing studies on the interactions between hormones and the gut-mammary-sIgA axis/lactogenic immunity in mammals and explore the potential mechanisms of hormonal regulation that have not been studied in detail, to draw attention to the role of hormones in influencing the immune response of pregnant and lactating mammals and their offspring, and highlight the effect of hormones in regulating sIgA-mediated anti-infection processes in colostrum and milk. Discussion of the relationship between hormones and lactogenic immunity may lead to a better way of improving lactogenic immunity by determining a better injection time and developing new vaccines.

Abstract
Osteocytes locally remodel their surrounding tissue through perilacunar canalicular remodeling (PLR). During lactation, osteocytes remove minerals to satisfy the metabolic demand, resulting in increased lacunar volume, quantifiable with synchrotron X-ray radiation micro-tomography (SRµCT). Although the effects of lactation on PLR are well-studied, it remains unclear whether PLR occurs uniformly throughout the bone and what mechanisms prevent PLR from undermining bone quality. We used SRµCT imaging to conduct an in-depth spatial analysis of the impact of lactation and osteocyte-intrinsic MMP13 deletion on PLR in murine bone. We found larger lacunae undergoing PLR are located near canals in the mid-cortex or endosteum. We show lactation-induced hypomineralization occurs 14 µm away from lacunar edges, past a hypermineralized barrier. Our findings reveal that osteocyte-intrinsic MMP13 is crucial for lactation-induced PLR near lacunae in the mid-cortex but not for whole-bone resorption. This research highlights the spatial control of PLR on mineral distribution during lactation.

Abstract
Calcium plays a vital role in various biological processes, including muscle contractions, blood clotting, skeletal mineralization, and cell signaling. While extracellular calcium makes up less than 1% of total body calcium, it is tightly regulated since too high or too low extracellular calcium concentration can have dangerous effects on the body. Mathematical modeling is a well-suited approach to investigate the complex physiological processes involved in calcium regulation. While mathematical models have been developed to study calcium homeostasis in male rats, none have been used to investigate known sex differences in hormone levels nor the unique physiological states of pregnancy and lactation. Calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D, plays a key role in intestinal calcium absorption, renal calcium reabsorption, and bone remodeling. It has been shown that, when compared to age-matched male rats, females have significantly lower calcitriol levels. In this study we first seek to investigate the impact of this difference as well as other known sex differences on calcium homeostasis using mathematical modeling. Female bodies differ from male bodies in that during their lifetime they may undergo massive adaptations during pregnancy and lactation. Indeed, maternal adaptations impact calcium regulation in all mammals. In pregnant rodents, intestinal absorption of calcium is massively increased in the mother's body to meet the needs of the developing fetus. In a lactating rodent, much of the calcium needs of milk are met by bone resorption, intestinal absorption, and renal calcium reabsorption. Given these observations, the goal of this project is to develop multi-scale whole-body models of calcium homeostasis that represents (1) how sex differences impact calcium homeostasis in female vs. male rats and (2) how a female body adapts to support the excess demands brought on by pregnancy and lactation. We used these models to quantify the impact of individual sex differences as well as maternal adaptations during pregnancy and lactation. Additionally, we conducted "what if" simulations to test whether sex differences in calcium regulation may enable females to better undergo maternal adaptations required in pregnancy and lactation than males.

Abstract
During pregnancy and lactation, female physiology adapts to fulfill the fetal and neonatal calcium and phosphorus requirements. The physiological changes that take place during these periods do not affect maternal skeleton resistance to fracture in most of the cases. However, there is a small percentage of women that do experience fragility fractures during these times of life. Pregnancy and lactation-associated osteoporosis (PLO) is an infrequent condition defined by the occurrence of non-traumatic fractures - most frequently vertebral - during the third trimester of gestation and/or the first months of postpartum. Its physiopathology has not yet been completely elucidated. Several authors have reported that risk factors for secondary osteoporosis might be present in up to 80% of the cases of PLO patients. According to recent studies, genetic factors might also play a relevant role in PLO. Given its rarity, the available literature on this condition is limited. Most of the published data consist on case reports and case series articles. There are not any randomized controlled trials regarding this disorder. Although there is consensus about discontinuation of lactation and calcium and vitamin D supplementation as the first steps in the treatment of these patients, there is still controversy regarding the long-term and/or pharmacological management of this condition. Recent data on the use of teriparatide in this population looks promising. In this review, we aimed to revise and summarize current knowledge about the physiopathology and management of PLO.

Abstract
Finely tuned cartilage mineralization, endochondral ossification, and normal bone formation are necessary for normal bone growth. Hypertrophic chondrocytes in the epiphyseal cartilage secrete matrix vesicles, which are small extracellular vesicles initiating mineralization, into the intercolumnar septa but not the transverse partitions of the cartilage columns. Bone-specific blood vessels invade the unmineralized transverse septum, exposing the mineralized cartilage cores. Many osteoblast precursors migrate to the cartilage cores, where they synthesize abundant bone matrices, and mineralize them in a process of matrix vesicle-mediated bone mineralization. Matrix vesicle-mediated mineralization concentrates calcium (Ca) and inorganic phosphates (Pi), which are converted into hydroxyapatite crystals. These crystals grow radially and are eventually get out of the vesicles to form spherical mineralized nodules, leading to collagen mineralization. The influx of Ca and Pi into the matrix vesicle is regulated by several enzymes and transporters such as TNAP, ENPP1, PiT1, PHOSPHO1, annexins, and others. Such matrix vesicle-mediated mineralization is regulated by osteoblastic activities, synchronizing the synthesis of organic bone material. However, osteocytes reportedly regulate peripheral mineralization, e.g., osteocytic osteolysis. The interplay between cartilage mineralization and vascular invasion during endochondral ossification, as well as that of osteoblasts and osteocytes for normal mineralization, appears to be crucial for normal bone growth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine if feeding lactating mice a calcium-insufficient diet while simultaneously administering alendronate (ALN) could potentially induce osteocytic osteolysis. METHODS Lactating mice were fed calcium (Ca)-insufficient diets with or without ALN administration, and then their femurs were examined for TRAP and ALP, and observed by Kossa staining and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Mice that had been fed a Ca-insufficient diet were then fed a 44Ca-containinig diet, and their tibial sections were examined by isotope microscopy. RESULTS Mice fed a Ca-insufficient diet had a reduced number of TRAP-positive osteoclasts after ALN administration. ALN-treated, lactating mice fed a Ca-insufficient diet had enlarged lacunae in their cortical bones, and TEM imaging demonstrated expanded regions between osteocytes and lacunar walls. In ALN-treated lactating mice fed a Ca-insufficient diet, huge areas of demineralized bone matrix occurred, centered around blood vessels in the cortical bone. Isotope microscopy showed 44Ca in the vicinity of the osteocytic lacunae, and in the broad, previously demineralized region around the blood vessels in the cortical bone of lactating mice fed a 44Ca-sufficient diet. CONCLUSIONS Bone demineralization likely takes place in the periphery of the osteocytic lacunae and in the broad regions around the blood vessels of lactating mice when they are exposed to severely reduced serum Ca through a Ca-insufficient diet coupled with ALN administration.

Peripartal treatment with low-dose sertraline accelerates mammary gland involution and has minimal effects on maternal and offspring bone. Physiol Rep 2022; 10:e15204.

Abstract
Women mobilize up to 10% of their bone mass during lactation to provide milk calcium. About 8%–13% of mothers use selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) to treat peripartum depression, but SSRIs independently decrease bone mass. Previously, peripartal use of the SSRI fluoxetine reduced maternal bone mass sustained post‐weaning and reduced offspring bone length. To determine whether these effects were fluoxetine‐specific or consistent across SSRI compounds, we examined maternal and offspring bone health using the most prescribed SSRI, sertraline. C57BL/6 mice were given 10 mg/kg/day sertraline, from the beginning of pregnancy through the end of lactation. Simultaneously, we treated nulliparous females on the same days as the primiparous groups, resulting in age‐matched nulliparous groups. Dams were euthanized at lactation day 10 (peak lactation, n = 7 vehicle; n = 9 sertraline), lactation day 21 (weaning, n = 9 vehicle; n = 9 sertraline), or 3m post‐weaning (n = 10 vehicle; n = 10 sertraline) for analysis. Offspring were euthanized at peak lactation or weaning for analysis. We determined that peripartum sertraline treatment decreased maternal circulating calcium concentrations across the treatment period, which was also seen in nulliparous treated females. Sertraline reduced the bone formation marker, procollagen 1 intact N‐terminal propeptide, and tended to reduce maternal BV/TV at 3m post‐weaning but did not impact maternal or offspring bone health otherwise. Similarly, sertraline did not reduce nulliparous female bone mass. However, sertraline reduced immunofluorescence staining of the tight junction protein, zona occludens in the mammary gland, and altered alveoli morphology, suggesting sertraline may accelerate mammary gland involution. These findings indicate that peripartum sertraline treatment may be a safer SSRI for maternal and offspring bone rather than fluoxetine.

Abstract
This European expert consensus statement provides recommendations for the diagnosis and management of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), chronic hypoparathyroidism in adults (HypoPT), and parathyroid disorders in relation to pregnancy and lactation. Specified areas of interest and unmet needs identified by experts at the second ESE Educational Program of Parathyroid Disorders (PARAT) in 2019, were discussed during two virtual workshops in 2021, and subsequently developed by working groups with interest in the specified areas. PHPT is a common endocrine disease. However, its differential diagnosing to familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH), the definition and clinical course of normocalcemic PHPT, and the optimal management of its recurrence after surgery represent areas of uncertainty requiring clarifications. HypoPT is an orphan disease characterized by low calcium concentrations due to insufficient PTH secretion, most often secondary to neck surgery. Prevention and prediction of surgical injury to the parathyroid glands are essential to limit the disease-related burden. Long-term treatment modalities including the place for PTH replacement therapy and the optimal biochemical monitoring and imaging surveillance for complications to treatment in chronic HypoPT, need to be refined. The physiological changes in calcium metabolism occurring during pregnancy and lactation modify the clinical presentation and management of parathyroid disorders in these periods of life. Modern interdisciplinary approaches to PHPT and HypoPT in pregnant and lactating women and their newborns children are proposed. The recommendations on clinical management presented here will serve as background for further educational material aimed for a broader clinical audience, and were developed with focus on endocrinologists in training.

The influence of lactation on BMD measurements and TBS: a 12-month follow-up study. Osteoporos Int 2021; 32:1351-1358. [PMID: 33479846 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-021-05851-4] [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: 07/27/2020] [Accepted: 01/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED Although lactation is associated with transient bone loss and body weight changes, the unchanged TBS could highlight a limited effectiveness in detecting dynamic bone properties in the first year postpartum. PURPOSE To evaluate trabecular bone score (TBS) and bone mineral density (BMD) in postpartum women. METHODS This was a 12-month prospective cohort study with 40 lactating postpartum women and 44 non-pregnant women. The inclusion criteria were as follows: aged between 18 and 35 years old, an uncomplicated term (≥37 weeks) pregnancy with a single fetus, and no intention of becoming pregnant within 12 months. BMD measurements, including spine, hip, forearm and whole body, were performed by DXA at four different time points after delivery: (1) 1st month, (2) 3rd-4th month, (3) 6th-9th month, and (4) ≥ 12th month postpartum. RESULTS BMD measurements showed a statistically significant decrease at spine (1.134 vs. 1.088 g/cm2, p < 0.01), femoral neck (0.988 vs. 0.946 g/cm2, p < 0.01), total femur (0.971 vs. 0.933 g/cm2, p < 0.01), and whole body (1.132 vs. 1.119 g/cm2, p = 0.03) at the 2nd assessment (peak of lactation). There was early spinal recovery after the 3rd assessment with complete recovery in all skeletal sites. Although it has had significant weight loss (67.3 vs. 63.2 kg, p < 0.01) and body mass index reduction (25.2 vs. 23.4, p < 0.01), there was significant increment of spine BMD (1.134 vs. 1.165 g/cm2, p < 0.01) after 12-month follow-up. The TBS did not change over time. CONCLUSIONS Although lactation is associated with transient bone loss and body weight changes, the unchanged TBS could highlight a limited effectiveness in detecting dynamic bone properties in the first year postpartum.

Abstract
Context Pregnancy- and lactation-associated osteoporosis (PLO) is a rare condition characterized by fragility fractures, mostly vertebral, during the third trimester of pregnancy or the early postpartum period. Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate bone microarchitecture in women with PLO to better understand the pathophysiology of this disease. Methods In this retrospective study, we included women with PLO referred to our bone center between November 2007 and July 2012. We assessed bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, bone turnover markers, and bone microarchitecture by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography. Results were compared with a control group of healthy lactating women. Results Of the 7 primiparous patients with PLO, 6 suffered vertebral fractures and 1 developed a hip fracture during the seventh month of gestation. Fractures occurred within the eighth month of pregnancy and the fourth month post partum; vertebral fractures were multiple in 85.7%. Major or minor risk factors for osteoporosis were present in 86% of our patients. Trabecular density, number, and thickness were 34%, 20% and 22% lower than controls (P < .01, P = .01, and P = .01, respectively). Cortical parameters were also deteriorated but to a lesser extent. Conclusion In comparison with healthy lactating women, patients with PLO presented severe deterioration of bone trabecular and cortical microarchitecture. This significant compromise may explain the occurrence of multiple fractures in these otherwise healthy young women. Further prospective studies are needed to determine whether bone microarchitecture might be able to be restored in the future.

Abstract
Biomineralization is the process by which organisms produce mineralized tissues. This crucial process makes possible the rigidity and flexibility that the skeleton needs for ambulation and protection of vital organs, and the hardness that teeth require to tear and grind food. The skeleton also serves as a source of mineral in times of short supply, and the intestines absorb and the kidneys reclaim or excrete minerals as needed. This Review focuses on physiological and pathological aspects of the hormonal regulation of biomineralization. We discuss the roles of calcium and inorganic phosphate, dietary intake of minerals and the delicate balance between activators and inhibitors of mineralization. We also highlight the importance of tight regulation of serum concentrations of calcium and phosphate, and the major regulators of biomineralization: parathyroid hormone (PTH), the vitamin D system, vitamin K, fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and phosphatase enzymes. Finally, we summarize how developmental stresses in the fetus and neonate, and in the mother during pregnancy and lactation, invoke alternative hormonal regulatory pathways to control mineral delivery, skeletal metabolism and biomineralization.

Abstract
Serotonin plays a diverse role in maternal and mammary metabolism. Recent research in the dairy cow has shown a relationship between serotonin and calcium, with increased serotonin concentrations improving calcium homeostasis in the peri‐partum dairy cow. Therefore, the objective was to elucidate how administration of 5‐hydroxy‐l‐tryptophan (5‐HTP), the immediate precursor to serotonin, altered serotonin and calcium metabolism in lactating dairy cows. Twelve mid‐late lactation multiparous cows were blocked by parity, production and days in milk and allocated to a daily intravenous infusion of (i) 1.5 mg/kg of 5‐HTP (n = 6) or (ii) saline (n = 6) for 3 consecutive days. Milk samples were collected daily. Blood samples were collected before and after each infusion with mammary biopsies and blood samples collected at 48, 56, and 72 h relative to termination of first infusion. Infusion of 5‐HTP increased (p = 0.001) circulating serotonin concentrations and decreased blood calcium via a transient hypocalcemia immediately after each infusion (p = 0.02). Treatment with 5‐HTP increased milk calcium concentrations (p = 0.02) and calcium release‐activated channel protein 1 (ORAI1) mRNA at 56 h and protein at 48 h relative to termination of first infusion (p = 0.008 and p = 0.09, respectively). Fifty‐six hours from termination of the first infusion mRNA of parathyroid hormone‐related protein and mammary serotonin content were increased relative to control (p = 0.03 and p = 0.05, respectively). These findings demonstrate the ability of 5‐HTP infusion to increase circulating serotonin concentrations and alter endocrine and mammary autocrine/paracrine calcium and serotonin metabolism in the lactating dairy cow.
