Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Postmenopausal women with systemic lupus erythematosus have an increased risk of osteoporosis and associated fractures. Their increased osteoporosis risk is probably caused by a high level of inflammation, use of glucocorticoids, impaired kidney function, and early menopause as these are known risk factors for osteoporosis. Due to these risk factors and the lack of safe and effective treatments, new therapies for the treatment of osteoporosis in this group of patients are needed. Ovariectomized MRL/lpr mice constitute a well-established model for studies of postmenopausal systemic lupus erythematosus; however, it is not clear to what extent this experimental model is associated with the development of osteoporosis. Thus, the aim of this study was to characterize the skeleton of ovariectomized MRL/lpr mice to determine the suitability of this model in studies of prospective new therapies for osteoporosis in postmenopausal systemic lupus erythematosus patients. METHODS Skeletal parameters were measured in MRL/lpr mice and MRL/++ control mice, using peripheral quantitative computed tomography, high-resolution micro-computed tomography and biomechanical analyses. mRNA expression of bone-remodeling markers was measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and serological markers of lupus disease were evaluated using ELISA. RESULTS Total bone mineral density was reduced in MRL/lpr mice compared with MRL/++ mice and MRL/lpr mice had reduced cortical and trabecular bone thickness compared with MRL/++ mice. In line with the low bone mass of MRL/lpr mice, gene expression analysis of cortical bone from these mice indicated an increased osteoclast activity as well as a decreased osteoblastogenesis and osteoblast activity, compared with MRL/++ mice. CONCLUSION Ovariectomized MRL/lpr mice constitute a valuable experimental model for studies of osteoporosis development in postmenopausal systemic lupus erythematosus and this model is thus suitable for future studies of osteoporosis treatment in systemic lupus erythematosus.

Abstract
The importance of estrogen receptor α (ERα) for the regulation of bone mass in males is well established. ERα mediates estrogenic effects both via nuclear and membrane-initiated ERα (mERα) signaling. The role of mERα signaling for the effects of estrogen on bone in male mice is unknown. To investigate the role of mERα signaling, we have used mice (Nuclear-Only-ER; NOER) with a point mutation (C451A), which results in inhibited trafficking of ERα to the plasma membrane. Gonadal-intact male NOER mice had a significantly decreased total body areal bone mineral density (aBMD) compared to WT littermates at 3, 6 and 9 months of age as measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). High-resolution microcomputed tomography (µCT) analysis of tibia in 3-month-old males demonstrated a decrease in cortical and trabecular thickness in NOER mice compared to WT littermates. As expected, estradiol (E2) treatment of orchidectomized (ORX) WT mice increased total body aBMD, trabecular BV/TV and cortical thickness in tibia compared to placebo treatment. E2 treatment increased these skeletal parameters also in ORX NOER mice. However, the estrogenic responses were significantly decreased in ORX NOER mice compared with ORX WT mice. In conclusion, mERα is essential for normal estrogen signaling in both trabecular and cortical bone in male mice. Increased knowledge of estrogen signaling mechanisms in the regulation of the male skeleton may aid in the development of new treatment options for male osteoporosis.

Abstract
Mice with impaired acute inflammatory responses within adipose tissue display reduced diet-induced fat mass gain associated with glucose intolerance and systemic inflammation. Therefore, acute adipose tissue inflammation is needed for a healthy expansion of adipose tissue. Because inflammatory disorders are associated with bone loss, we hypothesized that impaired acute adipose tissue inflammation leading to increased systemic inflammation results in a lower bone mass. To test this hypothesis, we used mice overexpressing an adenoviral protein complex, the receptor internalization and degradation (RID) complex that inhibits proinflammatory signaling, under the control of the aP2 promotor (RID tg mice), resulting in suppressed inflammatory signaling in adipocytes. As expected, RID tg mice had lower high-fat diet-induced weight and fat mass gain and higher systemic inflammation than littermate wild-type control mice. Contrary to our hypothesis, RID tg mice had increased bone mass in long bones and vertebrae, affecting trabecular and cortical parameters, as well as improved humeral biomechanical properties. We did not find any differences in bone formation or resorption parameters as determined by histology or enzyme immunoassay. However, bone marrow adiposity, often negatively associated with bone mass, was decreased in male RID tg mice as determined by histological analysis of tibia. In conclusion, mice with reduced fat mass due to impaired adipose tissue inflammation have increased bone mass.

Prednisolone treatment reduces the osteogenic effects of loading in mice. Bone 2018; 112:10-18.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid treatment, a major cause of drug-induced osteoporosis and fractures, is widely used to treat inflammatory conditions and diseases. By contrast, mechanical loading increases bone mass and decreases fracture risk. With these relationships in mind, we investigated whether mechanical loading interacts with GC treatment in bone. Three-month-old female C57BL/6 mice were treated with high-dose prednisolone (15 mg/60 day pellets/mouse) or vehicle for two weeks. During the treatment, right tibiae were subjected to short periods of cyclic compressive loading three times weekly, while left tibiae were used as physiologically loaded controls. The bones were analyzed using peripheral quantitative computed tomography, histomorphometry, real-time PCR, three-point bending and Fourier transform infrared micro-spectroscopy. Loading alone increased trabecular volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), cortical thickness, cortical area, osteoblast-associated gene expression, osteocyte- and osteoclast number, and bone strength. Prednisolone alone decreased cortical area and thickness and osteoblast-associated gene expression. Importantly, prednisolone treatment decreased the load-induced increase in trabecular vBMD by 57% (p < 0.001) and expression of osteoblast-associated genes, while completely abolishing the load-induced increase in cortical area, cortical thickness, number of osteocytes and osteoclasts, and bone strength. When combined, loading and prednisolone decreased the collagen content. In conclusion, high-dose prednisolone treatment strongly inhibits the loading-induced increase in trabecular BMD, and abolishes the loading-induced increase in cortical bone mass. This phenomenon could be due to prednisolone inhibition of osteoblast differentiation and function.

Abstract
Loading increases bone mass and strength in a site-specific manner; however, possible effects of loading on bone matrix composition have not been evaluated. Site-specific structural and material properties of mouse bone were analyzed on the macro- and micro/molecular scale in the presence and absence of axial loading. The response of bone to load is heterogeneous, adapting at molecular, micro-, and macro-levels. INTRODUCTION Osteoporosis is a degenerative disease resulting in reduced bone mineral density, structure, and strength. The overall aim was to explore the hypothesis that changes in loading environment result in site-specific adaptations at molecular/micro- and macro-scale in mouse bone. METHODS Right tibiae of adult mice were subjected to well-defined cyclic axial loading for 2 weeks; left tibiae were used as physiologically loaded controls. The bones were analyzed with μCT (structure), reference point indentation (material properties), Raman spectroscopy (chemical), and small-angle X-ray scattering (mineral crystallization and structure). RESULTS The cranial and caudal sites of tibiae are structurally and biochemically different within control bones. In response to loading, cranial and caudal sites increase in cortical thickness with reduced mineralization (-14 and -3%, p < 0.01, respectively) and crystallinity (-1.4 and -0.3%, p < 0.05, respectively). Along the length of the loaded bones, collagen content becomes more heterogeneous on the caudal site and the mineral/collagen increases distally at both sites. CONCLUSION Bone structure and composition are heterogeneous, finely tuned, adaptive, and site-specifically responsive at the micro-scale to maintain optimal function. Manipulation of this heterogeneity may affect bone strength, relative to specific applied loads.

Abstract
Estrogens are important regulators of bone mass and their effects are mainly mediated via estrogen receptor (ER)α. Central ERα exerts an inhibitory role on bone mass. ERα is highly expressed in the arcuate (ARC) and the ventromedial (VMN) nuclei in the hypothalamus. To test whether ERα in proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, located in ARC, is involved in the regulation of bone mass, we used mice lacking ERα expression specifically in POMC neurons (POMC-ERα(-/-)). Female POMC-ERα(-/-) and control mice were ovariectomized (OVX) and treated with vehicle or estradiol (0.5 μg/d) for 6 weeks. As expected, estradiol treatment increased the cortical bone thickness in femur, the cortical bone mechanical strength in tibia and the trabecular bone volume fraction in both femur and vertebrae in OVX control mice. Importantly, the estrogenic responses were substantially increased in OVX POMC-ERα(-/-) mice compared with the estrogenic responses in OVX control mice for cortical bone thickness (+126 ± 34%, P < .01) and mechanical strength (+193 ± 38%, P < .01). To test whether ERα in VMN is involved in the regulation of bone mass, ERα was silenced using an adeno-associated viral vector. Silencing of ERα in hypothalamic VMN resulted in unchanged bone mass. In conclusion, mice lacking ERα in POMC neurons display enhanced estrogenic response on cortical bone mass and mechanical strength. We propose that the balance between inhibitory effects of central ERα activity in hypothalamic POMC neurons in ARC and stimulatory peripheral ERα-mediated effects in bone determines cortical bone mass in female mice.

Abstract
BRCA1 gene mutation is associated with a combination of excessive aromatase activity/expression, predominantly estrogen receptor-negative phenotypes of tumors, and only scarce information about estrogen contents in body fluids. In the present work, isotope dilution capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry was used to study urinary excretion of estrogens, their catechol metabolites, and phytoestrogens in 22 women (11 with BCRA1 gene mutations and 11 without these mutations) in average 5.1+/-0.4 years before surgery for breast cancer. BCRA1 mutation carriers (including 3 premenopausal females) compared with respective controls showed significantly higher urinary estradiol and estrone excretion and a trend to an increased 2-OH-E2 excretion. In the subgroup of untreated postmenopausal women, BCRA1 mutation carriers showed a trend to increased estradiol and estrone excretion and to a higher value of the mean levels of all estrogen metabolites tested. The treatment after the baseline laboratory investigation of 6 women from postmenopausal group with the antidiabetic biguanide metformin for 3 months was associated with decreases in the excretion rates of 4-hydroxyestradiol, 2-methoxyestradiol, and 16-epiestriol and did not influence phytoestrogen excretion. The decrease in 2-methoxyestrogen excretion was more consistent in women without BCRA1 mutations than in BCRA1 mutation carriers. The data suggest the possibility that aromatase complex activation in BCRA1 mutation carriers is combined with increases in both, estrogen metabolism into catecholestrogens and their inactivation by methoxylation, and that metformin may affect both of these pathways.

Abstract
Joint replacement surgery has improved the quality of life for hundreds of thousands of patients. However, the infection of a joint implant is an important and serious complication, though the prevalence is low. Staphylococcus epidermidis is the most important pathogen involved in foreign-body infections. S. epidermidis is also a commensal that comprises a substantial part of the normal skin flora of humans. The possibility to demonstrate potential specific virulence markers may facilitate the interpretation of the bacteriological findings, as well as the clinical decision. The prevalence of the ica locus and insertion sequence IS256 by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) among 32 clinical S. epidermidis isolates from prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) and 24 commensal isolates from nares and skin was investigated. Sixteen (50%) of the 32 PJI isolates harbored the ica operon compared with one-third of the commensal isolates obtained from the samples of the skin and nares of healthy individuals. The IS256 was demonstrated in 26 (81%) out of 32 PJI isolates. By contrast, IS256 was found in one of 24 commensal isolates. In conclusion, IS256 may be superior to the ica operon as a marker of the invasive capacity of S. epidermidis, since it was found in most of the PJI isolates, but rarely among commensals.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate phenotypic and/or genotypic heterogeneity in coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) obtained from multiple tissue samples taken perioperatively during exchange surgery from each of 19 patients with clinically and/or microbiologically proven hip prosthesis infections. CoNS are important pathogens in prosthetic hip joint infections. Several virulence factors have been suggested for CoNS, such as phenotypic variation, yet the pathogenic processes that are involved remain unclear. The PhenePlate system (PhPlate AB, Stockholm Sweden) was used for phenotyping and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis for genotyping of polymorphisms in isolates of CoNS. Furthermore, polymerase chain reaction was used to determine the presence of the icaADB gene complex in the isolates. Some patients were infected with CoNS and other species, some were infected with multiple CoNS species, although infections with Staphylococcus epidermidis alone were most common, and some were infected with different S. epidermidis clones. Phenotypic variation was found among isolates both from the same tissue sample and from different samples from the same patient, and in some cases such variation represented the presence of different clones. One-third of the patients infected with S. epidermidis carried the icaADB genes. CoNS isolates showing phenotypic and/or genotypic heterogeneity were identified in tissue samples from half of the patients. The presence of the intercellular adhesion (ica) operon does not seem to be a prerequisite for establishing infection with CoNS.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the learning curve for an add-on 14 G stereotactic core needle biopsy (SCNB). MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 231 non-palpable breast lesions that had undergone add-on SCNB were evaluated in this prospective study. Five radiologists performed their first three biopsies under supervision. Subsequent, independently performed, biopsies were also evaluated. The samples were collected in three different containers: the first sample in container A, the second and third samples in container B, and subsequent samples in container C (available for four radiologists from the first biopsy on). Technically successful biopsies and false-negative rate in three container combinations (A, A+B, A+B+C) were reported as a function of operator experience. RESULTS Technically unsuccessful biopsies occurred significantly more often in microcalcifications than in masses (14.9% versus 3.8%; P=0.04). For microcalcifications, the rate of successful biopsies was 75% (18/24) for the first 5 biopsies and 87.8% (79/90) for the subsequent biopsies (P=0.335); rates for the masses were 95.7% (22/23) and 96.3% (79/82) (P=1.0), respectively. A tendency was noted for the false-negative rate to be higher for the first five biopsies in three container combinations than in subsequent cases. CONCLUSION Our results support the existence of a learning curve, especially in the biopsy of microcalcifications. More than three mentor-guided biopsies are needed.

Abstract
UNLABELLED 123I-ADAM is a novel radioligand for imaging of the brain serotonin transporters (SERTs). Traditionally, the analysis of brain receptor studies has been based on observer-dependent manual region of interest definitions and visual interpretation. Our aim was to create a template for automated image registrations and volume of interest (VOI) quantifications and to show that an automated quantification method of 123I-ADAM is more repeatable than the manual method. PATIENTS, METHODS A template and a predefined VOI map was created from 123I-ADAM scans done for healthy volunteers (n = 15). Scans of another group of healthy persons (HS, n = 12) and patients with bulimia nervosa (BN, n = 10) were automatically fitted to the template and specific binding ratios (SBRs) were calculated by using the VOI map. Manual VOI definitions were done for the HS and BN groups by both one and two observers. The repeatability of the automated method was evaluated by using the BN group. RESULTS For the manual method, the interobserver coefficient of repeatability was 0.61 for the HS group and 1.00 for the BN group. The introobserver coefficient of repeatability for the BN group was 0.70. For the automated method, the coefficient of repeatability was 0.13 for SBRs in midbrain. CONCLUSION An automated quantification gives valuable information in addition to visual interpretation decreasing also the total image handling time and giving clear advantages for research work. An automated method for analysing 123I-ADAM binding to the brain SERT gives repeatable results for fitting the studies to the template and for calculating SBRs, and could therefore replace manual methods.
