Abstract
Down syndrome (DS), affecting ∼1 in 800 live births, is caused by the triplication of human chromosome 21 (Hsa21). Individuals with DS have skeletal features including craniofacial abnormalities and decreased bone mineral density (BMD). Lowered BMD can lead to increased fracture risk, with common fracture points at the femoral neck and lumbar spine. While the femur has been studied in DS mouse models, there is little research done on the vertebrae despite evidence that humans with DS have affected vertebrae. Additionally, it is important to establish when skeletal deficits occur to find times of potential intervention. The Dp(16)1Yey DS mouse model has all genes triplicated on mouse chromosome 16 orthologous to Hsa21 and displayed deficits in long bone, including trabecular and cortical deficits in male but not female mice, at 12 weeks. We hypothesized that the long bone and lumbovertebral microarchitecture would exhibit sexually dimorphic deficits in Dp(16)1Yey mice compared to control mice and long bone strength would be diminished in Dp(16)1Yey mice at 6 weeks. The trabecular region of the 4th lumbar (L4) vertebra and the trabecular and cortical regions of the femur were analyzed via micro-computed tomography and 3-point bending in 6-week-old male and female Dp(16)1Yey and control mice. Trabecular and cortical deficits were observed in femurs from male Dp(16)1Yey mice, and cortical deficits were seen in femurs of male and female Dp(16)1Yey mice. Male Dp(16)1Yey femurs had more deficits in bone strength at whole bone and tissue-estimate level properties, but female Dp(16)1Yey mice were also affected. Additionally, the L4 of male and female Dp(16)1Yey mice show trabecular deficits, which have not been previously reported in a DS mouse model. Our results indicate that skeletal deficits associated with DS occur early in skeletal development, are dependent on skeletal compartment and site, are sex dependent, and potential interventions should likely begin early in skeletal development of DS mouse models.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 12:1356412. [PMID: 38371421 PMCID: PMC10869464 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2024.1356412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study is to assess the impact of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) therapy on the peri-implant osteogenesis in a Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rat model. Methods: A total of twenty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly allocated into four groups: Control group, T2DM group, Control-LIPUS group, and T2DM-LIPUS group. Implants were placed at the rats' bilateral maxillary first molar sites. The LIPUS treatment was carried out on the rats in Control-LIPUS group and T2DM-LIPUS group, immediately after the placement of the implants, over three consecutive weeks. Three weeks after implantation, the rats' maxillae were extracted for micro-CT, removal torque value (RTV), and histologic analysis. Results: Micro-CT analysis showed that T2DM rats experienced more bone loss around implant cervical margins compared with the non-T2DM rats, while the LIPUS treated T2DM rats showed similar bone heights to the non-T2DM rats. Bone-implant contact ratio (BIC) were lower in T2DM rats but significantly improved in the LIPUS treated T2DM rats. Bone formation parameters including bone volume fraction (BV/TV), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), bone mineral density (BMD) and RTV were all positively influenced by LIPUS treatment. Histological staining further confirmed LIPUS's positive effects on peri-implant new bone formation in T2DM rats. Conclusion: As an effective and safe treatment in promoting osteogenesis, LIPUS has a great potential for T2DM patients to attain improved peri-implant osteogenesis. To confirm its clinical efficacy and to explore the underlying mechanism, further prospective cohort studies or randomized controlled trials are needed in the future.

The sacroiliac joint: An original and highly sensitive tool to highlight altered bone phenotype in murine models of skeletal disorders. Bone 2024; 178:116931. [PMID: 37839664 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2023.116931] [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: 05/11/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
Bone disorders may affect the skeleton in different ways, some bones being very impaired and others less severely. In translational studies using murine models of human skeletal diseases, the bone phenotype is mainly evaluated at the distal femur or proximal tibia. The sacroiliac joint (SIJ), which connects the spine to the pelvis, is involved in the balanced transfer of mechanical energy from the lumbar spine to the lower extremities. Because of its role in biomechanical stress, the SIJ is a region of particular interest in various bone diseases. Here we aimed to characterize the SIJ in several murine models to develop a highly reliable tool for studying skeletal disorders. We performed a 12-month in vivo micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) follow-up to characterize the SIJ in wild-type (WT) C57BL/J6 mice and compared the bone microarchitecture of the SIJ and the distal femur at 3 months by micro-CT and histology. To test the sensitivity of our methodology, the SIJ and distal femur were evaluated at 3 and 6 months, in 2 murine models of skeletal disorder, X-linked hypophosphatemia (Hyp mice) and HLA-B27 transgenic mice and compared to WT mice. A multimodal analysis was performed, using a combination of microCT and histological analysis. With the Hyp model, the SIJ displayed more bone microarchitecture alterations than the distal femur. Hyp mice showed a significant reduction in trabecular bone at both the distal femur and sacral slope as compared with WT mice, with a significant positive correlation between trabecular bone parameters of the distal femur and sacral side of the SIJ. Furthermore, trabecular bone parameters (Bone Volume/Total Volume (BV/TV), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular separation (Tb.Sp), trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular pattern factor (Tb.Pf)) were significantly increased compared to femoral parameters at the SIJ. The sacral articular cortical bone, which is indicative of osteoarticular lesions, was altered in Hyp mice. Interestingly, in accordance to previous studies, HLA-B27 transgenic mice did not show any osteoarticular lesions as compared with WT mice. Cortical bone parameters (thickness, porosity), as well as scoring performed with double blinding, did not show difference between the 2 genotypes. The characterization and evaluation of the SIJ surface appears very sensitive to emphasize alterations of bone and joint. The SIJ may represent a valuable tool to investigate both bone and local osteoarticular alterations in murine models of skeletal disorders and might be a relevant site for assessing the response to treatment of chronic bone diseases.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate (CaP) is frequently used as coating for bone implants to promote osseointegration. However, commercial CaP coatings via plasma spraying display similar microstructures, and thus fail to provide specific implants according to different surgical conditions or skeletal bone sites. Herein, inspired by the formation of natural biominerals with various morphologies mediated by amorphous precursors, CaP coatings with tunable microstructures mediated by an amorphous metastable phase are fabricated. The microstructures of the coatings are precisely controlled by both polyaspartic acid and Mg2+ . The cell biological behaviors, including alkaline phosphatase activity, mineralization, and osteogenesis-related genes expression, on the CaP coatings with different microstructures, exhibit significant differences. Furthermore, in vivo experiments demonstrate the osseointegration in different types of rats and bones indeed favors different CaP coatings. This biomimetic strategy can be used to fabricate customized bone implants that can meet the specific requirements of various surgery conditions.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a three-dimensional, acellular scaffold of living tissues. Incorporating the ECM into cell culture models is a goal of cell biology studies and requires biocompatible materials that can mimic the ECM. Among such materials are hydrogels: polymeric networks that derive most of their mass from water. With the tuning of their properties, these polymer networks can resemble living tissues. The microarchitectural properties of hydrogels, such as porosity, pore size, fiber length, and surface topology can determine cell plasticity. The adequate characterization of these parameters requires reliable and reproducible methods. However, most methods were historically standardized using other biological specimens, such as 2D cell cultures, biopsies, or even animal models. Therefore, their translation comes with technical limitations when applied to hydrogel-based cell culture systems. In our current work, we have reviewed the most common techniques employed in the characterization of hydrogel microarchitectures. Our review provides a concise description of the underlying principles of each method and summarizes the collective data obtained from cell-free and cell-loaded hydrogels. The advantages and limitations of each technique are discussed, and comparisons are made. The information presented in our current work will be of interest to researchers who employ hydrogels as platforms for cell culture, 3D bioprinting, and other fields within hydrogel-based research.

[PMID: 35637472 PMCID: PMC9150354 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-022-05452-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) can improve the structure and strength of femur of rats, but the effect of CSII treatment on the lumbar spine of T2D rats is unknown. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of CSII on the microstructure, multi-scale mechanical properties and bone mineral composition of the lumbar spine in T2D rats. Methods Seventy 6-week-old male Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats were divided into two batches, each including Control, T2D, CSII and Placebo groups, and the duration of insulin treatment was 4-week and 8-week, respectively. At the end of the experiment, the rats were sacrificed to take their lumbar spine. Microstructure, bone mineral composition and nanoscopic-mesoscopic-apparentand-macroscopic mechanical properties were evaluated through micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), Raman spectroscopy, nanoindentation test, nonlinear finite element analysis and compression test. Results It was found that 4 weeks later, T2D significantly decreased trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), nanoscopic-apparent and partial mesoscopic mechanical parameters of lumbar spine (P < 0.05), and significantly increased bone mineral composition parameters of cortical bone (P < 0.05). It was shown that CSII significantly improved nanoscopic-apparent mechanical parameters (P < 0.05). In addition, 8 weeks later, T2D significantly decreased bone mineral density (BMD), bone volume fraction (BV/TV) and macroscopic mechanical parameters (P < 0.05), and significantly increased bone mineral composition parameters of cancellous bone (P < 0.05). CSII treatment significantly improved partial mesoscopic-macroscopic mechanical parameters and some cortical bone mineral composition parameters (P < 0.05). Conclusions CSII treatment can significantly improve the nanoscopic-mesoscopic-apparent-macroscopic mechanical properties of the lumbar spine in T2D rats, as well as the bone structure and bone mineral composition of the lumbar vertebrae, but it will take longer treatment time to restore the normal level. In addition, T2D and CSII treatment affected bone mineral composition of cortical bone earlier than cancellous bone of lumbar spine in rat. Our study can provide evidence for clinical prevention and treatment of T2D-related bone diseases.

Abstract
Background Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an important risk factor for osseointegration of implants. The aim of this study was to explore key genes of T2DM affecting bone metabolism through bioinformatic analysis of published RNA sequencing data, identify potential biomarkers, and provide a reference for finding the molecular mechanism of abnormal osseointegration caused by T2DM. Methods We identified differentially expressed mRNAs and miRNAs from the Gene Expression Omnibus database using the R package ‘limma’ and analysed the predicted target genes using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis and Gene Ontology analysis. At the same time, miRNA–mRNA interactions were explored using miRWalk 2.0. Results We constructed an miRNA-gene regulatory network and a protein–protein interaction network. The enrichment pathways of differentially expressed mRNAs included extracellular matrix receptor interactions, protein digestion and absorption, the PI3K-Akt signalling pathway, cytokine–cytokine receptor interactions, chemokine signalling pathways, and haematopoietic cell lineage functions. We analysed the expression of these differentially expressed mRNAs and miRNAs in T2DM rats and normal rats with bone implants and identified Smpd3, Itga10, and rno-mir-207 as possible key players in osseointegration in T2DM. Conclusion Smpd3, Itga10, and rno-mir-207 are possible biomarkers of osseointegration in T2DM. This study sheds light on the possible molecular mechanism of abnormal osseointegration caused by bone metabolism disorder in T2DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the current study was to explore effects of strontium-incorporated titanium implant surfaces by hydrothermal treatment on osseointegration in diabetic rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS The surface characteristics of SLA and SLA-Sr surfaces were detected by related instruments. Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were induced into diabetes, and thirty-six rats were normal. SLA and SLA-Sr implants were, respectively, inserted into bilateral tibial metaphysis of each rat. Percentage of bone-to-implant contact (BIC%) and percentage of bone area (BA%) were analyzed at 4 and 8 weeks after implantation. Immunohistochemistry of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and Wnt5a were conducted at 1 and 4 weeks. Gene expression levels of inflammatory cytokines and related signaling molecules in peri-implant bone tissue were detected at 3 and 7 days. RESULTS Strontium was uniformly distributed on SLA-Sr surfaces, and it was released in an effective concentration range. SLA-Sr surfaces showed significantly higher BIC% in diabetic rats at 4 (p < .05) and 8 weeks (p < .05). Besides, it displayed higher BIC% at 4 weeks (p < .05) in normal rats. Also, SLA-Sr surfaces upregulated expression of OPG at 4 weeks (p < .05) in diabetic rats. What's more, SLA-Sr surfaces downregulated inflammation (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6; p < .01) in diabetic rats at 3 days. In addition, expression of Wnt5a and ROR2 was upregulated (p < .05) at 7 days after implantation under diabetes. CONCLUSION It is suggested that strontium-incorporated titanium implant surfaces by hydrothermal treatment could enhance implant osseointegration as compared with SLA implant surfaces in diabetic rats.

Different Stages of Alveolar Bone Repair Process Are Compromised in the Type 2 Diabetes Condition: An Experimental Study in Rats. BIOLOGY 2020; 9:biology9120471. [PMID: 33339217 PMCID: PMC7766949 DOI: 10.3390/biology9120471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2020] [Revised: 12/08/2020] [Accepted: 12/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Simple Summary Type 2 diabetes (T2D) affects more than 90% of all patients diagnosed with diabetes, and among its risk factors, unhealthy eating habits are worth mentioning. With the notorious increase in the incidence of diabetic patients, there has also been an increase in surgical complications in dentistry, so this work presents a study model that mimics the T2D condition in rats, where animals receive a diet composed of foods rich in sugar and fat equivalent to the poor diet of the current population. The animals were submitted to dental extraction to perform analyzes at different stages of the alveolar bone. It is important to highlight that with the development of this experimental model it will be possible to simulate different conditions that are observed in clinics and in consequence and improve the characterization of the cellular responses involved in this complex condition of T2D. The scientific evidence presented in this study shows that T2D prolongs the local inflammatory process, which impairs the organization and maturation of collagen fibers, delaying bone formation and bone turnover. This fact implies in a series of disorders in dental practice, that would need to compensate in other ways, either with systemic medications or local therapies. Abstract The aim of this study was to analyze the stages of the alveolar bone repair in type 2 diabetic rats evaluating the mechanism of mineralization and bone remodeling processes after dental extraction. Forty-eight rats were divided into normoglycemic (NG) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) groups. The upper right incisor was extracted and after 3, 7, 14 and 42 days the animals were euthanized. The following analyses were performed: immunolabeling against antibodies TNFα, TGFβ, IL6, WNT, OCN and TRAP, collagen fibers maturation, microtomography and confocal microscopy. Data were submitted to statistical analysis. The immunolabeling analysis showed that the T2D presented a more pronounced alveolar inflammation than NG. Labeling of proteins responsible for bone formation and mineralization was higher in NG than T2D, which presented greater resorptive activity characterized by TRAP labeling. Also, T2D group showed a decrease in the amount of collagen fibers. Micro-CT analysis showed that T2D causes a decrease in bone volume percentage due to deficient trabecular parameters and higher porosity. The T2D bone dynamics show a loss in bone remodeling process. T2D prolongs the local inflammatory process, which impairs the organization and maturation of collagen fibers, delaying bone formation that generates impact on mineralization and bone turnover.

Abstract
C-peptide therapy protects against diabetic micro- and macrovascular damages and neuropatic complications. However, to date, the role of C-peptide in preventing diabetes-related bone loss has not been investigated. Our aim was to evaluate if C-peptide infusion improves bone quality in diabetic rats. Twenty-three male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal control group; sham diabetic control group; diabetic plus C-peptide group. Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin injection and C-peptide was delivered subcutaneously for 6 weeks. We performed micro-CT and histological testing to assess several trabecular microarchitectural parameters. At the end, diabetic plus C-peptide rats had a higher serum C-peptide (p = 0.02) and calcium (p = 0.04) levels and tibia weight (p = 0.02) than the diabetic control group. The diabetic plus C-peptide group showed a higher trabecular thickness and cross-sectional thickness than the diabetic control group (p = 0.01 and p = 0.03). Both the normal control and diabetic plus C-peptide groups had more Runx-2 and PLIN1 positive cells in comparison with the diabetic control group (p = 0.045 and p = 0.034). Diabetic rats receiving C-peptide had higher quality of trabecular bone than diabetic rats not receiving this treatment. If confirmed, C-peptide could have a role in improving bone quality in diabetes.

Abstract
Purpose This study was conducted evaluate the influence of reconstruction parameters of micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) images on bone mineral density (BMD) analyses. Materials and Methods The sample consisted of micro-CT images of the maxillae of 5 Wistar rats, acquired using a SkyScan 1174 unit (Bruker, Kontich, Belgium). Each acquisition was reconstructed following the manufacturer's recommendations (standard protocol; SP) for the application of artifact correction tools (beam hardening correction [BHC], 45%; smoothing filter, degree 2; and ring artifact correction [RAC], level 5). Additionally, images were reconstructed with 36 protocols combining different settings of artifact correction tools (P0 to P35). BMD analysis was performed for each reconstructed image. The BMD values obtained for each protocol were compared to those obtained using the SP through repeated-measures analysis of variance with the Dunnett post hoc test (α=0.05). Results The BMD values obtained from all protocols that used a BHC of 45% did not significantly differ from those obtained using the SP (P>0.05). The other protocols all yielded significantly different BMD values from the SP (P<0.05). The smoothing and RAC tools did not affect BMD values. Conclusion BMD values measured on micro-CT images were influenced by the BHC level. Higher levels of BHC induced higher values of BMD.
