Abstract
Osteoporosis is commonly treated via the long-term usage of anti-osteoporotic agents; however, poor drug compliance and undesirable side effects limit their treatment efficacy. The parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is essential for normal bone formation and remodeling; thus, may be used as an anti-osteoporotic agent. Here, we developed a platform for the delivery of a single peptide composed of two regions of the PTHrP protein (1–34 and 107–139); mcPTHrP 1–34+107–139 using a minicircle vector. We also transfected mcPTHrP 1–34+107–139 into human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and generated Thru 1–34+107–139-producing engineered MSCs (eMSCs) as an alternative delivery system. Osteoporosis was induced in 12-week-old C57BL/6 female mice via ovariectomy. The ovariectomized (OVX) mice were then treated with the two systems; (1) mcPTHrP 1–34+107–139 was intravenously administered three times (once per week); (2) eMSCs were intraperitoneally administered twice (on weeks four and six). Compared with the control OVX mice, the mcPTHrP 1–34+107–139-treated group showed better trabecular bone structure quality, increased bone formation, and decreased bone resorption. Similar results were observed in the eMSCs-treated OVX mice. Altogether, these results provide experimental evidence to support the potential of delivering PTHrP 1–34+107–139 using the minicircle technology for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
The association of low levels of 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is being studied, as to whether it is a risk factor or as a coincidental one. This study aimed to evaluate serum levels of deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency of 25OHD in PTC and its relationship with the trabecular bone score (TBS) and bone mineral density (BMD). This study includes 134 postmenopausal women with PTC, followed for 10 years. BMD was measured with DXA Hologic QDR 4500, and TBS with Med-Imaps iNsight2.0 Software. Mean serum 25OHD was 23.09 ± 7.9 ng/mL and deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency levels were 15.64 ± 2.9, 25.27 ± 2.7, and 34.7 ng/mL, respectively. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) were higher in deficiency (57.65 ± 22.6 ng/mL; 29.5 ± 14 U/L) and in insufficiency (45.88 ± 19.8 ng/mL; 23.47 ± 8.8 U/L) compared with sufficiency of 25OHD (47.13 ± 16 and 22.14± 9.7 ng/mL) (p = 0.062 and p = 0.0440, respectively). TBS was lower in patients with 25OHD < 20 ng/mL (1.24 ± 0.13) compared with between 20-29 (1.27 ± 0.13, p < 0.05) and 30 ng/mL (1.31 ± 0.11, p < 0.01). We found low TBS in patients with PTC and long-term follow-up associated with low serum 25OHD levels, not associated with cancer stage, or accumulative iodine radioactive dose. Low 25OHD associated with deleterious bone quality in patients with PTC should be restored for the prevention of fractures.

Abstract
Trabecular bone structure has an important influence on bone strength, but little is known about its genetic regulation. To elucidate the genetic factor(s) regulating trabecular bone structure, we compared the trabecular bone structures of two genetically remote mouse strains, C57BL/6J and Japanese wild mouse-derived MSM/Ms. Phenotyping by X-ray micro-CT revealed that MSM/Ms has structurally more fragile trabecular bone than C57BL/6J. Toward identification of genetic determinants for the difference in fragility of trabecular bone between the two mouse strains, we employed phenotype screening of consomic mouse strains in which each C57BL/6J chromosome is substituted by its counterpart from MSM/Ms. The results showed that many chromosomes affect trabecular bone structure, and that the consomic strain B6-Chr15MSM, carrying MSM/Ms-derived chromosome 15 (Chr15), has the lowest values for the parameters BV/TV, Tb.N, and Conn.D, and the highest values for the parameters Tb.Sp and SMI. Subsequent phenotyping of subconsomic strains for Chr15 mapped four novel trabecular bone structure-related QTL (Tbsq1-4) on mouse Chr15. These results collectively indicate that genetic regulation of trabecular bone structure is highly complex, and that even in the single Chr15, the combined action of the four Tbsqs controls the fragility of trabecular bone. Given that Tbsq4 is syntenic to human Chr 12q12-13.3, where several bone-related SNPs are assigned, further study of Tbsq4 should facilitate our understanding of the genetic regulation of bone formation in humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To demonstrate the feasibility of using a variable flip angle three-dimensional fast spin-echo (3D VFA-FSE) sequence combined with outer volume suppression for imaging trabecular bone structure at the proximal femur in vivo at 3 Tesla. METHODS The 3D VFA-FSE acquisition was optimized to minimize blurring and to provide high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from bone marrow. Outer volume suppression was achieved by applying three quadratic-phase radio-frequency pulses. The SNR and trabecular bone structures from 3D VFA-FSE were compared with those from previously demonstrated multiple-acquisition 3D balanced steady-state free precision (bSSFP) using theoretical simulations, ex vivo experiments, and in vivo experiments. RESULTS Our simulation demonstrated that 3D VFA-FSE can provide at least 35% higher SNR than 3D bSSFP, which was confirmed by the ex vivo and in vivo experiments. The ex vivo experiments demonstrated a good correlation and agreement between bone structural paramters obtained with the two sequences. The proposed sequence depicted trabecular bone structure at the proxiaml femur in vivo well without visible suppression artifacts and provided a mean SNR of 11.0. CONCLUSION The 3D VFA-FSE sequence combined with outer volume suppression can depict the trabecular bone structure of the proximal femur in vivo with minimal blurring and high SNR efficiency.

Abstract
Image quality degradation due to subject motion is a common artifact affecting in vivo high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) of bones. These artifacts confound the accuracy and reproducibility of bone density, geometry, and cortical and trabecular structure measurements. Observer-based systems for grading image quality and criteria for deciding when to repeat an acquisition and post hoc data quality control remain highly subjective and non-standardized. This study proposes an objective, quantitative technique for measuring subject motion in HR-pQCT acquisitions from raw projection data, using image similarity measures applied to parallelized projections at 0° and 180°. A total of 88 HR-pQCT exams with repeated acquisitions of the distal radius (N = 54) or distal tibia (N = 34) of 49 women (age = 59 ± 14 year) and 3 men (46 ± 2 year) were retrospectively evaluated. All images were graded from 1 (no visible motion artifacts) to 5 (severe motion artifacts) according to the manufacturer-suggested image quality grading system. In addition, to serve as the reference case without motion artifacts, two cadaveric wrist and two ankle specimens were imaged twice with repositioning. The motion-induced error was calculated as the percent difference in each bone parameter for the paired scans with and without visually apparent motion artifacts. Quantitative motion estimates (QMEs) for each motion-degraded scan were calculated using two different image similarity measures: sum of squared differences (SSD) and normalized cross-correlation (NCC). The mean values of QME(SSD) and QME(NCC) increased with the image quality grade for both radius and tibia. Quality grades were differentiated between grades 2 and 3 using QME(SSD), but not with QME(NCC), in addition to between grades 4 and 5. Both QMEs correlated significantly to the motion-induced errors in the measurements and their empirical relationship was derived. Subject motion had greater impact on the precision of trabecular structure indices than on the densitometric indices. The results of this study may provide a basis for establishing a threshold for motion artifacts in accordance to the study design as well as a standardized quality control protocol across operators and imaging centers.

Abstract
SUMMARY The standard diagnostic technique for assessing osteoporosis is dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measuring bone mass parameters. In this study, a combination of DXA and trabecular structure parameters (acquired by computed tomography [CT]) most accurately predicted the biomechanical strength of the proximal femur and allowed for a better prediction than DXA alone. INTRODUCTION An automated 3D segmentation algorithm was applied to determine specific structure parameters of the trabecular bone in CT images of the proximal femur. This was done to evaluate the ability of these parameters for predicting biomechanical femoral bone strength in comparison with bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) acquired by DXA as standard diagnostic technique. METHODS One hundred eighty-seven proximal femur specimens were harvested from formalin-fixed human cadavers. BMC and BMD were determined by DXA. Structure parameters of the trabecular bone (i.e., morphometry, fuzzy logic, Minkowski functionals, and the scaling index method [SIM]) were computed from CT images. Absolute femoral bone strength was assessed with a biomechanical side-impact test measuring failure load (FL). Adjusted FL parameters for appraisal of relative bone strength were calculated by dividing FL by influencing variables such as body height, weight, or femoral head diameter. RESULTS The best single parameter predicting FL and adjusted FL parameters was apparent trabecular separation (morphometry) or DXA-derived BMC or BMD with correlations up to r = 0.802. In combination with DXA, structure parameters (most notably the SIM and morphometry) added in linear regression models significant information in predicting FL and all adjusted FL parameters (up to R(adj) = 0.872) and allowed for a significant better prediction than DXA alone. CONCLUSION A combination of bone mass (DXA) and structure parameters of the trabecular bone (linear and nonlinear, global and local) most accurately predicted absolute and relative femoral bone strength.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Estrogen depletion after menopause is accompanied by bone loss and architectural deterioration of trabecular bone. The hypothesis underlying this work is that the microMRI-based virtual bone biopsy can capture the temporal changes of scale and topology of the trabecular network and that estrogen supplementation preserves the integrity of the trabecular network. MATERIALS AND METHODS Subjects studied were early postmenopausal women, 45-55 yr of age (N = 65), of whom 32 were on estrogen (estradiol group), and the remainder were not (control group). Early menopause was defined by amenorrhea for 6-24 mo and elevated serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) concentration. The subjects were evaluated with three imaging modalities at baseline and 12 and 24 mo to determine the temporal changes in trabecular and cortical architecture and density. microMRI of the distal radius and tibia was performed at 137 x 137 x 410-microm(3) voxel size. The resulting bone volume fraction maps were Fourier interpolated to a final voxel size of 45.7 x 45.7 x 136.7 microm(3), binarized, skeletonized, and subjected to 3D digital topological analysis (DTA). Skeletonization converts trabecular rods to curves and plates to surfaces. Parameters quantifying scale included BV/TV, whereas DTA parameters included the volume densities of curves (C) and surface (S)-type voxels, as well as composite parameters: the surface/curve ratio (S/C), and erosion index (EI, ratio of the sum of parameters expected to increase with osteoclastic resorption divided by the sum of those expected to decrease). For comparison, pQCT of the same peripheral locations was conducted, and trabecular density and cortical structural parameters were measured. Areal BMD of the lumbar vertebrae and hip was also measured. RESULTS Substantial changes in trabecular architecture of the distal tibia, in particular as they relate to topology of the network, were detected after 12 mo in the control group. S/C decreased 5.6% (p < 0.0005), and EI increased 7.1% (p < 0.0005). Most curve- and profile-type voxels (representative of trabecular struts), increased significantly (p < 0.001). Curve and profile edges resulting from disconnection of rod-like trabeculae increased by 9.8% and 5.1% (p = 0.0001 and <0.001, respectively). Similarly, DXA BMD in the spine and hip decreased 2.6% and 1.3% (p < 0.0001 and <0.005, respectively), and pQCT cortical area decreased 3.6% (p = 0.0001). However, neither trabecular density nor BV/TV changed. Furthermore, none of the parameters measured in the estradiol group were significantly different after 12 mo. Substantial differences in the mean changes from baseline between the estradiol treatment and control groups, in particular after 24 mo, were observed, with relative group differences as large as 13% (S/C, p = 0.005), and the relative changes in the two groups had the opposite sign for most parameters. The observed temporal alterations in architecture are consistent with remodeling changes that involve gradual conversion of plate-like to rod-like trabecular bone along with disconnection of trabecular elements, even in the absence of a net loss of trabecular bone. The high-resolution 3D rendered images provide direct evidence of the above remodeling changes in individual subjects. The radius structural data indicated similar trends but offered no definitive conclusions. CONCLUSIONS The short-term temporal changes in trabecular architecture after menopause, and the protective effects of estradiol ensuring maintenance of a more plate-like TB architecture, reported here, have not previously been observed in vivo. This work suggests that MRI-based in vivo micromorphometry of trabecular bone has promise as a tool for monitoring osteoporosis treatment.

Abstract
Accrual of bone mass and strength during development is imperative in order to reduce the risk of fracture later in life. Although delayed pubertal onset is associated with an increased incidence of stress fracture, evidence supports the concept of "catch up" growth. It remains unclear if deficits in bone mass associated with delayed puberty have long-term effects on trabecular bone structure and strength. The purpose of this study was to use texture-based analysis and histomorphometry to investigate the effect of a delay in puberty on trabecular bone mass and structure immediately post-puberty and at maturity in female rats. Forty-eight female Sprague-Dawley rats (25 days) were randomly assigned to one of four groups; (1) short-term control (C-ST), (2) long-term control (C-LT), (3) short-term GnRH antagonist (G-ST) and (4) long-term GnRH antagonist (G-LT). Injections of either saline or gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-a) (100 microg/day) (Cetrotide, Serono, Inc.) were given intraperitoneally for 18 days (day 25-42) to both ST and LT. The ST groups were sacrificed after the last injection (day 43) and the LT groups at 6 months of age. Pubertal and gonadal development was retarded by the GnRA antagonist injections as indicated by a delay in vaginal opening, lower ovarian and uterine weights and suppressed estradiol levels in the short-term experimental animals (G-ST). Delayed puberty caused a transient reduction in trabecular bone area as assessed by histomorphometry. Specifically, the significant deficit in bone area resulted from a decreased trabecula number and an increase in trabecular separation. Texture analysis, a new method to assess bone density and structural anisotropy, correlated well with the standard histomorphometry and measured significant deficits in the density measure (M(Density)) in the G-ST group that remained at maturity (6 months). The texture energy deficit in the G-ST group was primarily in the 0 degrees orientation (-13.2%), which measures the longitudinal trabeculae in the proximal tibia. However, the deficit in the G-LT group was in the 45 degrees and 135 degrees orientations. These results suggest that any "catch-up" growth following the cessation of the GnRH-antagonist injection protocol may be directed in trabeculae oriented perpendicular to 0 degrees at the expense of trabeculae in other orientations.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to use high-resolution magnetic resonance (MR) imaging at 3 Tesla (3T) to quantify trabecular bone structure in vitro using femoral head specimens, and to correlate the calculated structure measures with those that were determined using microcomputed tomography (microCT), the standard of reference. Fifteen cylindrical cores were obtained from fresh femoral heads after total hip arthroplasty. MR images were obtained at 3T using a transmit-receive wrist coil. High-resolution coronal images were acquired using a modified three-dimensional (3D) fast-gradient echo sequence. From these data sets two-dimensional (2D) structural parameters analogous to bone histomorphometry were derived by using both mean intercept length (MIL) methods based on the plate model and the more recent model-assumption free 3D distance-transformation (DT) methods. The parameters measured by the 2D plate model-based MIL method and the DT method included apparent (App). BV/TV (bone volume/total volume), App. Tb.Th (trabecular thickness), App. Tb.Sp (trabecular separation), and App. Tb.N (trabecular number). Identical regions of interest were analyzed in the MR images and the microCT data sets, and similar structure measures were derived. The means and standard deviations of the parameters over all slices were calculated and MR-derived measures were correlated with those derived from the microCT data sets using linear regression analyses. Structure measures were overestimated with MRI, for example, the mean App. BV/TV was 0.45 for MRI and 0.20 for microT, and the slope of the graph was 1.45. App. Tb.Th was overestimated by a factor of 1.9, whereas App. Tb.Sp was underestimated; Tb.N showed the smallest effect. Correlations between the individual parameters were excellent (App. BV/TV, r2 = 0.82; App. Tb.Sp, r2 = 0.84; App. Tb.N, r2 = 0.81), except for App.Tb.Th (r2 = 0.67). The results of this study show that trabecular bone structure measures may be obtained using 3T MR imaging. These measures, although higher than the standard of reference, show a highly significant correlation with true structure measures obtained by microCT.
