Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the outcomes of several rodent animal models for studying tooth extraction-related medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). DESIGN After a search of the databases, 2004 articles were located, and 118 corroborated the inclusion factors (in vivo studies in rodents evaluating tooth extraction as a risk factor for the development of MRONJ). RESULTS Numerous studies attempting to establish an optimal protocol to induce MRONJ were found. Zoledronic acid (ZA) was the most used drug, followed by alendronate (ALN). Even when ZA did not lead to the development of MRONJ, its effect compromised the homeostasis of the bone and soft tissue. The association of other risk factors (dexamethasone, diabetes, and tooth-related inflammatory dental disease) besides tooth extraction also played a role in the development of MRONJ. In addition, studies demonstrated a relationship between cumulative dose and MRONJ. CONCLUSIONS Both ZA and ALN can lead to MRONJ in rodents when equivalent human doses (in osteoporosis or cancer treatment) are used. Local oral risk factors and tooth-related inflammatory dental disease increase the incidence of MRONJ in a tooth extraction-related rodent model.

Exp Ther Med 2023; 25:104.

Abstract
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) regulates the survival, proliferation and differentiation of all cells in the neutrophil lineage, and is consequently used for neutropenic conditions. Upon G-CSF administration, osteoblasts and osteocytes are suppressed, and the support system allowing hematopoietic stem cells to remain in the microenvironment is diminished. The present study focused on and investigated G-CSF as a regulatory factor of bone remodeling. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of G-CSF administration on the bone healing of tooth extraction sockets. Significant differences in the bone volume fraction, and trabecular separation of the proximal femurs and alveolar septa were observed between the G-CSF and control (saline-treated) groups. The trabecular bone of the femur and alveolar septa was reduced in the G-CSF group compared with that in the control group. In addition, serum procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide levels, a marker of bone formation, were lower in the G-CSF group compared with in the control group. Fibrous connective tissues and immature bone were observed in the extraction socket, and bone healing was delayed in the G-CSF group compared with that in the control group. The bone area in the extraction socket 6 days after tooth extraction was significantly smaller in the G-CSF group (23.6%) than that in the control group (45.1%). Furthermore, G-CSF administration reduced the number of canaliculi per osteocyte and inhibited the connection of osteocyte networks. Consequently, osteoblast activation was inhibited and bone remodeling changed to a state of low bone turnover in the G-CSG group. Analysis of bone formation parameters revealed that the G-CSF group exhibited a lower mineral apposition rate compared with in the control group. In conclusion, these findings indicated that G-CSF may delay bone healing of the socket after tooth extraction.

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.

J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2021; 49:738-747. [PMID: 33642117 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2021.02.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2020] [Revised: 11/19/2020] [Accepted: 02/14/2021] [Indexed: 10/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Expression of signaling proteins in bone cells depends on their embryological mesoderm-derived (e.g. tibia) or cranial neural crest (CNC)-derived (e.g. jaw) origin. Connexin 43 (Cx43) is a gap junction protein that plays an essential role in the mode of action of bisphosphonates (BP). This study aimed to investigate Cx43 expression and the influence of BP application on mesoderm- and CNC-derived bone. Using a rat model, molar extraction and tibia osteotomy with (Group 4) or without (Group 3) previous BP application was performed. Untreated (Group 1) and animals selectively treated with BPs (Group 2) served as controls. Cx43 expression was immunohistochemically determined 12 and 16 weeks postoperatively via a labeling index. Cx43 expression in CNC-derived bone was significantly higher compared with mesodermal bone. BP application decreased Cx43 expression; however, detected expression levels were still higher in jawbone (Group 2 tibia vs jaw: 5.83 ± 5.06 vs 23.52 ± 6.42; p = 0.007). During bone healing after surgical intervention (Group 3) there were no expression differences between tibia and jawbone. BP treatment prior to surgery resulted in significantly lower Cx43 expression in CNC-derived compared with tibia bone (Group 4 tibia vs jaw: 56.84 ± 15.57 vs 16.40 ± 5.66; p < 0.01). Increased Cx43 expression in jaw compared with tibia bone is in line with their embryological origins. A significant Cx43 suppression in jawbone after BP application and surgery might contribute to the selectively altered osseous turnover and development of MRONJ in CNC-derived bone.

Abstract
PURPOSE In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of glucose metabolism on bone healing after tooth extraction in an osteoporosis rat model administered zoledronic acid (ZA) and dexamethasone (DX). METHODS In total, 24 male Wistar rats (4 weeks old) were randomly assigned to four groups: Control (subcutaneous physiological saline), ZD (subcutaneous ZA and DX twice a week), Ins+ZD (subcutaneous insulin followed by ZD treatment), and Met+ZD (oral metformin followed by ZD treatment). Blood was collected every two weeks . Two weeks after treatment initiation, the first molar tooth on the right maxilla was extracted from all rats. Four weeks later, the rats were sacrificed, and bone healing was assessed. Maxillae samples were fixed and scanned using micro-computed tomography for quantifying areas of bone defects. Hematoxylin-eosin and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining were performed to evaluate bone apoptosis and osteoclast number. RESULTS In all experimental groups, body weight was statistically lower than that in the Control group, with no changes observed in uncarboxylated osteocalcin concentrations. The radiological analysis revealed that insulin or metformin administration improved healing in the tooth extraction socket (p < 0.01). Histological examination revealed that the osteonecrosis area was reduced in the Ins+ZD and Met+ZD groups (p < 0.01). TRAP staining presented increased osteoclast numbers in the ZD group when compared with that observed in the Control. CONCLUSIONS Tooth extraction with long-term ZA and DX administration inhibited bone remodeling and induced bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw-like lesions. Metformin exerted protective effects ag ainst osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Abstract
Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ), characterized by refractory bone exposure, has recently emerged as a serious side effect of bisphosphonate (BPs) treatment. We discuss novel insights that may help to improve the efficacy of BRONJ treatment and prevention. Our report highlights the following: (1) The presence of exposed bone in patients taking BPs does not necessarily reflect BRONJ, and diagnoses of oral ulceration with bone sequestration and malignancy must be excluded. (2) Osteonecrosis type of BRONJ is difficult to avoid using preventive dental measures alone. However, as with osteomyelitis type of BRONJ, preventive dental measures are indispensable for reducing the risk of secondary infection and disease progression. (3) The importance of tooth extraction as a risk factor for BRONJ among patients taking BPs has been overstated, particularly when they are administered at low doses. Delaying tooth extraction may increase the risk for the onset and progression of osteomyelitic BRONJ. (4) In patients taking low doses of BPs, dental implant surgery is not necessarily contraindicated if there are no other risk factors, such as combined use of corticosteroids or concomitant diabetes. However, the risk of BRONJ due to peri-implantitis must be explained when obtaining patient consent.

Abstract
Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ), which is characterized by refractory bone exposure, has recently emerged as a serious side effect of bisphosphonate (BP) treatment. BRONJ was first thought to be due to administration of high doses of intravenous BP to treat metastatic bone lesions or multiple myeloma. However, more recent studies have indicated that BRONJ also frequently occurs in patients receiving low doses of BP for the treatment of osteoporosis. In addition, patients treated with denosumab, a human monoclonal antibody against receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) whose antiresorptive effects differ from those of BP, may develop osteonecrosis of the jaw. Since both BP and denosumab are associated with osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), antiresorptive agent-related ONJ (ARONJ) has been suggested as a comprehensive term. Although the pathophysiology of BRONJ remains unclear and the number of affected patients is increasing in Japan, significant improvements have been made with respect to risk reduction strategies and treatment. Despite the publication of the first position paper on BRONJ in Japan in 2010, an increase of the number of patients of BRONJ is hypothesized to result from an increase in the long-term use of BP. Previous findings have suggested that inadequate preventive measures including restriction of tooth extraction may be responsible for increases in BRONJ incidence.

Abstract
Aging is a significant risk factor for the development of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ). Accumulating evidence suggests that bone aging is associated with oxidative stress (OS), and OS is associated with osteonecrosis. To elucidate the mechanisms of the onset of BRONJ, the present study focused on OS and the effects of treatment with the pro-oxidant DL-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO), an oxidative stressor, on healing of a surgically induced penetrating injury of the palate. Six-week-old C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into four groups (n=5 each) and treated with or without zoledronic acid (ZOL) and with or without BSO (experimental groups: ZOL, BSO, and ZOL+BSO; control group: saline solution). A penetrating injury of the midline palate was surgically created using a root elevator. ZOL (250 µg/kg/day) was injected intraperitoneally every day from 7 days prior to the surgical treatment to 4 days following the surgical treatment. BSO (500 µg/kg/day) was administered 7 days prior to the surgical treatment as a single intraperitoneal injection. The maxillae were harvested at 5 days following the surgical treatment for histological and histochemical studies. The presence of empty osteocyte lacunae in the palatal bone was increased by ZOL and BSO treatment. The highest number of empty osteocyte lacunae was observed in the ZOL+BSO group. The number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive cells was decreased by ZOL treatment and increased by BSO treatment. The number of canaliculi per osteocyte lacuna was significantly decreased by BSO treatment. The mineral apposition rate was significantly lower in the treatment groups than the control group. Bisphosphonates and OS suppressed bone turnover. The present study has demonstrated that BSO treatment affects osteocytes, and OS in osteocytes exacerbates impairment of the osteocytic canalicular networks. As a result, bisphosphonates and OS may induce osteonecrosis following invasive dentoalveolar surgery. OS has been identified as an additional risk factor for the development of BRONJ.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a rare and severe necrotic bone disease reflecting a compromise in the body's osseous healing mechanisms and unique to the craniofacial region. Antiresorptive and antiangiogenic medications have been suggested to be associated with the occurrence of ONJ; yet, the pathophysiology of this disease has not been fully elucidated. This article raises the current theories underlying the pathophysiology of ONJ. RECENT FINDINGS The proposed mechanisms highlight the unique localization of ONJ. The evidence-based mechanisms of ONJ pathogenesis include disturbed bone remodeling, inflammation or infection, altered immunity, soft tissue toxicity, and angiogenesis inhibition. The role of dental infections and the oral microbiome is central to ONJ, and systemic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes mellitus contribute through their impact on immune resiliency. Current experimental studies on mechanisms of ONJ are summarized. The definitive pathophysiology is as yet unclear. Recent studies are beginning to clarify the relative importance of the proposed mechanisms. A better understanding of osteoimmunology and the relationship of angiogenesis to the development of ONJ is needed along with detailed studies of the impact of drug holidays on the clinical condition of ONJ.

Abstract
Objective This study was performed to determine whether the results of prevailing in vivo and in vitro studies offer a reliable model for investigation of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). Methods Embase, Medline, and the Cochrane Library were searched for articles published from September 2003 to June 2017 involving experimental approaches to the pathogenesis of MRONJ. In vivo and in vitro trials were analyzed with respect to the scientific question, study design, methodology, and results. Results Of 139 studies, 87, 46, and 6 conducted in vivo, in vitro, and both in vivo and in vitro experiments, respectively. Rats, mice, dogs, minipigs, sheep, and rabbits were the preferred animal models used. Osteoblasts, osteoclasts, fibroblasts, keratinocytes, macrophages, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells were the preferred cell types. Zoledronate, alendronate, ibandronate, and risedronate were the most frequent bisphosphonates used. MRONJ was most reliably induced in minipigs because of the close relationship with human bone physiology. In vitro studies showed that reduced viability, growth, and migration of cells in the bone and soft tissues were causative for MRONJ. Other than exposed jawbone after tooth extraction, no reliable cofactors were found. Conclusion The minipig is the most suitable animal model for MRONJ.

Abstract
Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) has been associated with long-term oral or intravenous administration of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (BPs). However, the pathogenesis of BRONJ remains unknown, and definitively effective treatment has not yet been established. Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis (BRON) tends to occur in maxillofacial bones. Why this occurs is still unclear. Here we show that zoledronate (Zol) treatment suppresses alveolar bone remodeling after tooth typical clinical and radiographic hallmarks of the human BRONJ, whereas enhances peripheral bone quantity in bone remodeling following injury in the same individuals, shown as increased cortical bone thickness, increased trabecular bone formation and accelerated bone defect repair. We find that the RANKL/OPG ratio and Wnt-3a expression are suppressed at the extracted alveolar sites in Zol-treated rats compared with those at the injured sites of peripheral bones. We also show that Zol-treated bone marrow stromal cell (BMSCs) derived from jaw and peripheral bones exhibit differences in cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, expression of osteogenic and chondrogenic related marker genes, and in vivo bone formation capacity. Hopefully, this study will help us better understand the pathogenesis of BRONJ, and deepen the theoretical research.

Abstract
A known complication that can occur in patients using bisphosphonates (BPs) is osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ). ONJ features bone exposure that may be associated with severe pain, swelling, local infection, and pathological fracture of the jaw. Current literature indicates that a complex combination of factors is necessary to induce ONJ. Several hypotheses about the pathophysiology of ONJ were previously reported. Here, we review these hypotheses and introduce new ideas and suggestions on this topic, focusing on bone site-specific cells, and the effect that BPs and other anti-resorptive drugs have on those cells. Gaining more insight into bone site-specific effects may help to better understand the pathogenesis ONJ, and contribute to the development of new bone site-specific anti-resorptive drugs.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ) is a complication of antiresorptive medications, such as denosumab or bisphosphonates, prescribed to patients with bone malignancy or osteoporosis. The most common instigating local factor in ONJ pathogenesis is tooth extraction. However, in adults the great majority of teeth are extracted due to dental disease. Here, we have investigated alveolar bone healing after extraction of healthy teeth or teeth with naturally occurring periradicular disease in mice treated with high dose zoledronic acid (ZA), a potent bisphosphonate, or OPG-Fc, a RANKL inhibitor. C57BL/6 mice were treated for eight weeks and in vivo micro-CT was performed to identify spontaneously occurring periradicular lesions around the roots of maxillary molars. Then, extractions of molars with and without dental disease were performed in all groups. Four weeks later, animals were euthanized and maxillae were dissected and analyzed. Clinically, all vehicle animals with extraction of healthy or diseased teeth, and most OPG-Fc or ZA animals with extraction of healthy teeth showed normal mucosal healing. On the contrary, most animals with OPG-Fc or ZA treatment and extraction of diseased teeth demonstrated impaired healing with visible mucosal defects. Radiographically, bone socket healing was significantly compromised in OPG-Fc and ZA-treated mice with periradicular disease in comparison to other groups. Histologically, all vehicle animals showed normal mucosal healing and socket remodeling. OPG-Fc and ZA animals with extraction of healthy teeth showed normal mucosal healing, woven bone formation in the socket, and decreased remodeling of the original socket confines. OPG-Fc and ZA animals with extraction of diseased teeth showed mucosal defects, persistent prominent inflammatory infiltrate, bone exposure and areas of osteonecrosis. These findings support that dental disease is critical in the pathogenesis of ONJ, not only as the instigating cause for tooth extraction, but also as a compounding factor in ONJ development and pathophysiology.
