Abstract
The development of various osteogenic biomaterials has not only promoted the development of bone tissue engineering but also provided more possibilities for bone defect repair. However, most previous studies have focused on the interaction of biomaterials on endogenous or exogenous stem cells involved in the bone regeneration process while neglecting the effect of changes in the immune microenvironment of bone defect sites on bone regeneration after biomaterial implantation into the host. With the development of bone immunology, the role of various immune cells, especially macrophages, in bone regeneration has gradually attracted the attention of researchers. An increasing number of studies have begun to target macrophages to better promote bone regeneration by modulating the fate of macrophages in a spatiotemporally ordered manner to mimic the changes in the immune microenvironment of bone defect sites during the natural repair process of bone tissue. Chitosan is one of the most abundant natural polysaccharides in the world. In recent years, various chitosan-based biomaterials have been widely used in macrophage fate modulation and bone regeneration. In this review, we review the interaction between macrophages and scaffold materials, general information about chitosan, the modulation of macrophage fate by chitosan-based biomaterials, and their application in bone regeneration.

[PMID: 38815683 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.05.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
Bone, a rigid yet regenerative tissue, has garnered extensive attention for its impressive healing abilities. Despite advancements in understanding bone repair and creating treatments for bone injuries, handling nonunions and large defects remains a major challenge in orthopedics. The rise of bone regenerative materials is transforming the approach to bone repair, offering innovative solutions for nonunions and significant defects, and thus reshaping orthopedic care. Evaluating these materials effectively is key to advancing bone tissue regeneration, especially in difficult healing scenarios, making it a critical research area. Traditional evaluation methods, including two-dimensional cell models and animal models, have limitations in predicting accurately. This has led to exploring alternative methods, like 3D cell models, which provide fresh perspectives for assessing bone materials' regenerative potential. This paper discusses various techniques for constructing 3D cell models, their pros and cons, and crucial factors to consider when using these models to evaluate bone regenerative materials. We also highlight the significance of 3D cell models in the in vitro assessments of these materials, discuss their current drawbacks and limitations, and suggest future research directions. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This work addresses the challenge of evaluating bone regenerative materials (BRMs) crucial for bone tissue engineering. It explores the emerging role of 3D cell models as superior alternatives to traditional methods for assessing these materials. By dissecting the construction, key factors of evaluating, advantages, limitations, and practical considerations of 3D cell models, the paper elucidates their significance in overcoming current evaluation method shortcomings. It highlights how these models offer a more physiologically relevant and ethically preferable platform for the precise assessment of BRMs. This contribution is particularly significant for "Acta Biomaterialia" readership, as it not only synthesizes current knowledge but also propels the discourse forward in the search for advanced solutions in bone tissue engineering and regeneration.

Biphasic bone substitutes coated with PLGA incorporating therapeutic ions Sr 2+ and Mg 2+: cytotoxicity cascade and in vivo response of immune and bone regeneration. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 12:1408702. [PMID: 38978719 PMCID: PMC11228333 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2024.1408702] [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: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024] Open
Abstract
The incorporation of bioactive ions into biomaterials has gained significant attention as a strategy to enhance bone tissue regeneration on the molecular level. However, little knowledge exists about the effects of the addition of these ions on the immune response and especially on the most important cellular regulators, the macrophages. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the in vitro cytocompatibility and in vivo regulation of bone remodeling and material-related immune responses of a biphasic bone substitute (BBS) coated with metal ions (Sr2+/Mg2+) and PLGA, using the pure BBS as control group. Initially, two cytocompatible modified material variants were identified according to the in vitro results obtained following the DIN EN ISO 10993-5 protocol. The surface structure and ion release of both materials were characterized using SEM-EDX and ICP-OES. The materials were then implanted into Wistar rats for 10, 30, and 90 days using a cranial defect model. Histopathological and histomorphometrical analyses were applied to evaluate material degradation, bone regeneration, osteoconductivity, and immune response. The findings revealed that in all study groups comparable new bone formation were found. However, during the early implantation period, the BBS_Sr2+ group exhibited significantly faster regeneration compared to the other two groups. Additionally, all materials induced comparable tissue and immune responses involving high numbers of both pro-inflammatory macrophages and multinucleated giant cells (MNGCs). In conclusion, this study delved into the repercussions of therapeutic ion doping on bone regeneration patterns and inflammatory responses, offering insights for the advancement of a new generation of biphasic calcium phosphate materials with potential clinical applicability.

Abstract
The silicon nitride (Si3N4) coating exhibits promising potential in oral applications due to its excellent osteogenic and antibacterial properties. However, a comprehensive investigation of Si3N4 coatings in the context of dental implants is still lacking, especially regarding their corrosion resistance and in vivo performance. In this study, Si3N4 coatings were prepared on a titanium surface using the nonequilibrium magnetron sputtering method. A systematic comparison among the titanium group (Ti), Si3N4 coating group (Si3N4-Ti), and sandblasted and acid-etched-treated titanium group (SLA-Ti) has been conducted in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that the Si3N4-Ti group had the best corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties, which were mainly attributed to the dense structure and chemical activity of Si-O and Si-N bonds on the surface. Furthermore, the Si3N4-Ti group exhibited superior cellular responses in vitro and new bone regeneration and osseointegration in vivo, respectively. In this sense, silicon nitride coating shows promising prospects in the field of dental implantology.

Abstract
Magnesium-based biomaterials hold remarkable promise for various clinical applications, offering advantages such as reduced stress-shielding and enhanced bone strengthening and vascular remodeling compared to traditional materials. However, ensuring the quality of preclinical research is crucial for the development of these implants. To achieve implant success, an understanding of the cellular responses post-implantation, proper model selection, and good study design are crucial. There are several challenges to reaching a safe and effective translation of laboratory findings into clinical practice. The utilization of Mg-based biomedical devices eliminates the need for biomaterial removal surgery post-healing and mitigates adverse effects associated with permanent biomaterial implantation. However, the high corrosion rate of Mg-based implants poses challenges such as unexpected degradation, structural failure, hydrogen evolution, alkalization, and cytotoxicity. The biocompatibility and degradability of materials based on magnesium have been studied by many researchers in vitro; however, evaluations addressing the impact of the material in vivo still need to be improved. Several animal models, including rats, rabbits, dogs, and pigs, have been explored to assess the potential of magnesium-based materials. Moreover, strategies such as alloying and coating have been identified to enhance the degradation rate of magnesium-based materials in vivo to transform these challenges into opportunities. This review aims to explore the utilization of Mg implants across various biomedical applications within cellular (in vitro) and animal (in vivo) models.

A xonotlite nanofiber bioactive 3D-printed hydrogel scaffold based on osteo-/angiogenesis and osteoimmune microenvironment remodeling accelerates vascularized bone regeneration. J Nanobiotechnology 2024; 22:59. [PMID: 38347563 PMCID: PMC10863132 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02323-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Coordination between osteo-/angiogenesis and the osteoimmune microenvironment is essential for effective bone repair with biomaterials. As a highly personalized and precise biomaterial suitable for repairing complex bone defects in clinical practice, it is essential to endow 3D-printed scaffold the above key capabilities. RESULTS Herein, by introducing xonotlite nanofiber (Ca6(Si6O17) (OH)2, CS) into the 3D-printed silk fibroin/gelatin basal scaffold, a novel bone repair system named SGC was fabricated. It was noted that the incorporation of CS could greatly enhance the chemical and mechanical properties of the scaffold to match the needs of bone regeneration. Besides, benefiting from the addition of CS, SGC scaffolds could accelerate osteo-/angiogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and meanwhile reprogram macrophages to establish a favorable osteoimmune microenvironment. In vivo experiments further demonstrated that SGC scaffolds could efficiently stimulate bone repair and create a regeneration-friendly osteoimmune microenvironment. Mechanistically, we discovered that SGC scaffolds may achieve immune reprogramming in macrophages through a decrease in the expression of Smad6 and Smad7, both of which participate in the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling pathway. CONCLUSION Overall, this study demonstrated the clinical potential of the SGC scaffold due to its favorable pro-osteo-/angiogenic and osteoimmunomodulatory properties. In addition, it is a promising strategy to develop novel bone repair biomaterials by taking osteoinduction and osteoimmune microenvironment remodeling functions into account.

Abstract
Individual aged with various change in cell and cellular microenvironments and the skeletal system undergoes physiological changes that affect the process of bone fracture healing. These changes are accompanied by alterations in regulating critical genes involved in this healing process. Unfortunately, the elderly are particularly susceptible to hip bone fractures, which pose a significant burden associated with higher morbidity and mortality rates. A notable change in older adults is the increased expression of activation, adhesion, and migration markers in circulating monocytes. However, there is a decrease in the expression of co-inhibitory molecules. Recently, research evidence has shown that the migration of specific monocyte subsets to the site of hip fracture plays a crucial role in bone resorption and remodeling, especially concerning age-related factors. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about uniqueness characteristics of monocytes, and their potential regulation and moderation to enhance the healing process of hip fractures. This breakthrough could significantly contribute to the comprehension of aging process at a fundamental aging mechanism through this initiative would represent a crucial stride for diagnosing and treating age related hip fracture.

Low-Temperature Calcium Phosphate Ceramics Can Modulate Monocytes and Macrophages Inflammatory Response In Vitro. Biomedicines 2024; 12:263.

Abstract
Creating bioactive materials for bone tissue regeneration and augmentation remains a pertinent challenge. One of the most promising and rapidly advancing approaches involves the use of low-temperature ceramics that closely mimic the natural composition of the extracellular matrix of native bone tissue, such as Hydroxyapatite (HAp) and its phase precursors (Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate-DCPD, Octacalcium Phosphate-OCP, etc.). However, despite significant scientific interest, the current knowledge and understanding remain limited regarding the impact of these ceramics not only on reparative histogenesis processes but also on the immunostimulation and initiation of local aseptic inflammation leading to material rejection. Using the stable cell models of monocyte-like (THP-1ATRA) and macrophage-like (THP-1PMA) cells under the conditions of LPS-induced model inflammation in vitro, the influence of DCPD, OCP, and HAp on cell viability, ROS and intracellular NO production, phagocytosis, and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines was assessed. The results demonstrate that all investigated ceramic particles exhibit biological activity toward human macrophage and monocyte cells in vitro, potentially providing conditions necessary for bone tissue restoration/regeneration in the peri-implant environment in vivo. Among the studied ceramics, DCPD appears to be the most preferable for implantation in patients with latent inflammation or unpredictable immune status, as this ceramic had the most favorable overall impact on the investigated cellular models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Aim: The purpose of the study was to determine the features of the expression of T-lymphocytes, B-lymphocytes, macrophages in the post-traumatic regenerate of the mandible rats under conditions of filling a bone defect with hydroxyapatite-containing osteotropic material and thymalin injecting the surrounding soft tissues. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and Methods: An experiment was conducted on 48 mature rats of the WAG population weighing 160-180 grams. Four groups were formed. Group 1 included 12 rats with a simulated holey defect in the lower jaw. Group 2 included 12 rats with a simulated holey defect in the lower jaw followed by its closure with hydroxyapatite-containing osteotropic material (bone graft "Biomin GT"). Group 3 included 12 rats with a simulated holey defect in the lower jaw with injecting the surrounding soft tissues with thymalin. Group 4 included 12 rats with a simulated holey defect in the lower jaw followed by its closure with hydroxyapatite-containing osteotropic material (bone graft "Biomin GT") and injecting the surrounding soft tissues with thymalin. The material for the morphological study was a fragment of the lower jaw from the area of the simulated holey defect. An immunohistochemical study was aperformed using monoclonal antibodies to CD68, CD20, CD163, CD86, CD3. RESULTS Results: A comprehensive experimental and morphological study conducted by the authors revealed that thymalin injection of the soft tissues surrounding the bone defect of the lower jaw, filled with hydroxyapatite-containing osteotropic material "Biomin GT", stimulates local immune reactions in the post-traumatic regenerate, which is manifested, firstly, by an increase in the number T-lymphocytes on the 3rd day of the experiment and their increase up to the 28th day; secondly, by increasing the number of B-lymphocytes on the 14th day of the experiment with their further increase up to the 28th day; thirdly, by increasing the number of macrophages on the 3rd day of the experiment and their growth up to the 28th day; fourth, changes in macrophages phenotypes (decrease in the number of M1-macrophages and increase in the number of M2-macrophages). CONCLUSION Conclusions: Stimulation of local immune reactions in the post-traumatic regenerate can be one of the mechanisms that activate reparative osteogenesis in the lower jaw of rats under the conditions of filling bone defects with hydroxyapatite-containing osteotropic material "Biomin GT" and thymalin injecting the surrounding soft tissues.

Bone Regeneration Induced by Patient-Adapted Mg Alloy-Based Scaffolds for Bone Defects: Present and Future Perspectives. Biomimetics (Basel) 2023; 8:618. [PMID: 38132557 PMCID: PMC10742271 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics8080618] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 12/09/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Treatment of bone defects resulting after tumor surgeries, accidents, or non-unions is an actual problem linked to morbidity and the necessity of a second surgery and often requires a critical healthcare cost. Although the surgical technique has changed in a modern way, the treatment outcome is still influenced by patient age, localization of the bone defect, associated comorbidities, the surgeon approach, and systemic disorders. Three-dimensional magnesium-based scaffolds are considered an important step because they can have precise bone defect geometry, high porosity grade, anatomical pore shape, and mechanical properties close to the human bone. In addition, magnesium has been proven in in vitro and in vivo studies to influence bone regeneration and new blood vessel formation positively. In this review paper, we describe the magnesium alloy's effect on bone regenerative processes, starting with a short description of magnesium's role in the bone healing process, host immune response modulation, and finishing with the primary biological mechanism of magnesium ions in angiogenesis and osteogenesis by presenting a detailed analysis based on a literature review. A strategy that must be followed when a patient-adapted scaffold dedicated to bone tissue engineering is proposed and the main fabrication technologies are combined, in some cases with artificial intelligence for Mg alloy scaffolds, are presented with examples. We emphasized the microstructure, mechanical properties, corrosion behavior, and biocompatibility of each study and made a basis for the researchers who want to start to apply the regenerative potential of magnesium-based scaffolds in clinical practice. Challenges, future directions, and special potential clinical applications such as osteosarcoma and persistent infection treatment are present at the end of our review paper.

Abstract
As life expectancy continues to increase, so do disorders related to the musculoskeletal system. Orthopedics-related impairments remain a challenge, with nearly 325 thousand and 120 thousand deaths recorded in 2019. Musculoskeletal system, including bone and cartilage tissue, is a living system in which cells constantly interact with the immune system, which plays a key role in the tissue repair process. An alternative to bridge the gap between these two systems is exploiting nanomaterials, as they have proven to serve as delivery agents of an array of molecules, including immunomodulatory agents (anti-inflammatory drugs, cytokines), as well as having the ability to mimic tissue by their nanoscopic structure and promote tissue repair per se. Therefore, this review outlooks nanomaterials and immunomodulatory factors widely employed in the area of bone and cartilage tissue engineering. Emerging developments in nanomaterials for delivery of immunomodulatory agents for bone and cartilage tissue engineering applications have also been discussed. It can be concluded that latest progress in nanotechnology have enabled to design intricate systems with the ability to deliver biologically active agents, promoting tissue repair and regeneration; thus, nanomaterials studied herein have shown great potential to serve as immunomodulatory agents in the area of tissue engineering.

Mechanisms of tissue degeneration mediated by periostin in spinal degenerative diseases and their implications for pathology and diagnosis: a review. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1276900. [PMID: 38020106 PMCID: PMC10645150 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1276900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Periostin (POSTN) serves a dual role as both a matricellular protein and an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein and is widely expressed in various tissues and cells. As an ECM protein, POSTN binds to integrin receptors, transduces signals to cells, enabling cell activation. POSTN has been linked with various diseases, including atopic dermatitis, asthma, and the progression of multiple cancers. Recently, its association with orthopedic diseases, such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis resulting from cartilage destruction, degenerative diseases of the intervertebral disks, and ligament degenerative diseases, has also become apparent. Furthermore, POSTN has been shown to be a valuable biomarker for understanding the pathophysiology of orthopedic diseases. In addition to serum POSTN, synovial fluid POSTN in joints has been reported to be useful as a biomarker. Risk factors for spinal degenerative diseases include aging, mechanical stress, trauma, genetic predisposition, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, but the cause of spinal degenerative diseases (SDDs) remains unclear. Studies on the pathophysiological effects of POSTN may significantly contribute toward the diagnosis and treatment of spinal degenerative diseases. Therefore, in this review, we aim to examine the mechanisms of tissue degeneration caused by mechanical and inflammatory stresses in the bones, cartilage, intervertebral disks, and ligaments, which are crucial components of the spine, with a focus on POSTN.

Abstract
Osteoimmunology is a concept involving molecular and cellular crosstalk between the skeletal and immune systems. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are widely expressed both on mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), the hematopoietic cells, and immune cells in the osteogenic microenvironment for bone development or repair. TLRs can sense both exogenous pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) derived from microorganisms, and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) derived from normal cells subjected to injury, inflammation, or cell apoptosis under physiological or pathological conditions. Emerging studies reported that TLR signaling plays an important role in bone remodeling by directly impacting MSC osteogenic differentiation or osteoimmunology. However, how to regulate TLR signaling is critical and remains to be elucidated to promote the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs and new bone formation for bone tissue repair. This review outlines distinct TLR variants on MSCs from various tissues, detailing the impact of TLR pathway activation or inhibition on MSC osteogenic differentiation. It also elucidates TLR pathways' interplay with osteoclasts, immune cells, and extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from MSCs. Furthermore, we explore biomaterial-based activation to guide MSCs' osteogenic differentiation. Therefore, understanding TLRs' role in this context has significant implications for advancing bone regeneration and repair strategies.

Abstract
Background Infertility is a common issue affecting a large number of Iraqi women of reproductive age. The relationship between vitamin D deficiency and infertility has previously drawn the attention of gynecologists, and an increasing number of vitamin D testing has been requested. Methods 120 women were enrolled in this study between April 2019 and April 2020. Patients were divided into two groups comprising sixty women complaining of infertility, with the other 60 women being fertile and enrolled as controls. All patients were assessed for vitamin D level. Results In the fertile study group, patients with deficient, insufficient, and sufficient level of vitamin were 28%, 23%, and 48%, respectively (these numbers were rounded to the nearest whole digit, as the numbers for the infertile group were given with that level of precision), whereas the infertile study group showed a statistically significant (p value = 0.002) distribution of vitamin levels with 50%, 35%, and 15% of women being deficient, insufficient, and sufficient, respectively. Conclusions Vitamin D is significantly deficient in infertile patients which suggests a possible, positive impact if vitamin D is considered in the management of female infertility. Further study with more participants is highly recommended.

Abstract
Nanocellulose application has been increasing owing to its appealing physicochemical properties. Monitoring of the crystallinity, surface topography, and reactivity of this high-aspect-ratio nanomaterial is crucial for efficient tissue engineering. Controlling macrophage polarization phenotype remains a challenge in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Herein, we monitored the effects of shape-regulated (rod and spherical) nanocellulose on the macrophage modulatory potential of RAW 246.7 cells in vitro. Spherical nanocellulose (s-NC) exhibited higher thermal stability and biocompatibility than rod nanocellulose. Macrophage polarization was profoundly affected by nanocellulose topography and incubation period. M2 polarization was observed in vitro after 1 day of treatment with s-NC, followed by M1 polarization after treatment for longer periods. Transcriptome analysis similarly revealed that M1 polarization was dominant after 1 day h of incubation with both nanocellulose types. These findings demonstrate that macrophage polarization can be controlled by selecting suitable nanocellulose shape and incubation time for desired applications.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine has received potential attention around the globe, with improving cell performances, one of the necessary ideas for the advancements of regenerative medicine. It is crucial to enhance cell performances in the physiological system for drug release studies because the variation in cell environments between in vitro and in vivo develops a loop in drug estimation. On the other hand, tissue engineering is a potential path to integrate cells with scaffold biomaterials and produce growth factors to regenerate organs. Scaffold biomaterials are a prototype for tissue production and perform vital functions in tissue engineering. Silk fibroin is a natural fibrous polymer with significant usage in regenerative medicine because of the growing interest in leftovers for silk biomaterials in tissue engineering. Among various natural biopolymer-based biomaterials, silk fibroin-based biomaterials have attracted significant attention due to their outstanding mechanical properties, biocompatibility, hemocompatibility, and biodegradability for regenerative medicine and scaffold applications. This review article focused on highlighting the recent advancements of 3D printing in silk fibroin scaffold technologies for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (GIONFH) is a disabling disease with high mortality in China but the detailed molecular and cellular mechanisms remain to be investigated. Macrophages are considered the key cells in osteoimmunology, and the cross-talk between bone macrophages and other cells in the microenvironment is involved in maintaining bone homeostasis. M1 polarized macrophages launch a chronic inflammatory response and secrete a broad spectrum of cytokines (eg, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β) and chemokines to initiate a chronic inflammatory state in GIONFH. M2 macrophage is the alternatively activated anti-inflammatory type distributed mainly in the perivascular area of the necrotic femoral head. In the development of GIONFH, injured bone vascular endothelial cells and necrotic bone activate the TLR4/NF-κB signal pathway, promote dimerization of PKM2 and subsequently enhance the production of HIF-1, inducing metabolic transformation of macrophage to the M1 phenotype. Considering these findings, putative interventions by local chemokine regulation to correct the imbalance between M1/M2 polarized macrophages by switching macrophages to an M2 phenotype, or inhibiting the adoption of an M1 phenotype appear to be plausible regimens for preventing or intervening GIONFH in the early stage. However, these results were mainly obtained by in vitro tissue or experimental animal model. Further studies to completely elucidate the alterations of the M1/M2 macrophage polarization and functions of macrophages in glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head are imperative.

Muacevic A, Adler JR. The Impact of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme-2 (ACE-2) on Bone Remodeling Marker Osteoprotegerin (OPG) in Post-COVID-19 Iraqi Patients. Cureus 2022; 14:e29926. [PMID: 36348825 PMCID: PMC9633432 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.29926] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction As COVID-19 affects human genes in several types of peripheral tissue, numerous disorders occur after recovery. The virus enters host cells via angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE-2) receptors that affect bone remodeling, leading to osteopenia or osteoporosis, which is characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD). The adult skeleton undergoes about 10% remodeling annually, which is crucial for preventing fatigue damage and preserving calcium homeostasis. An imbalance in the rates of bone production and resorption causes bone loss. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is one of the regulators involved in the bone remodeling mechanism, it decreases the activity of NF-B receptors that activates the receptor activators of NF-B ligand (RANKL) pathway, which maintains the bone homeostasis balance. This study aims to find out the disruption of bone homeostasis balance in Iraqi post-COVID-19 patients. Materials and methods It is a case-control study that includes 130 Iraqi subjects enrolled. They were divided into two groups - the first group consisted of 80 post-COVID-19 infection patients, while the second group consisted of 50 who were not infected with COVID-19. Also, the levels of ACE-2 and OPG were measured in the serum by the ELISA technique. The BMD was measured by the DEXA scan technique. Results This study found that there is an effect of coronavirus infection on the bone strength measured by the Mean of the OPG level, which was found to be highly significant in the serum of post-COVID-19 patients when compared with non-COVID-19 subjects (P-value = 0.001), but the Mean of ACE-2 level was statistically non-significant between the two groups (P-value = 0.13). Also, the BMD of post-COVID-19 patients that was measured by DEXA scan had a statistically highly significant T-score% between the two groups. Conclusion The current study found that there was an effect of COVID-19 on the bone remodeling mechanism, which may be causing osteopenia or osteoporosis for Iraqi subjects enrolled in the current study. Also, analyzing the OPG level in the serum could be helpful in predicting low BMD.
