降钙素对骨质疏松大鼠骨密度形态计量学与骨代谢的影响

目的探讨降钙素(密盖息)对骨质疏松大鼠骨密度、骨形态计量学影响以及与血钙、磷、维生素D代谢和生长因子的关系。方法用摘除大鼠双侧卵巢的方式制备骨质疏松模型(OVX),实验动物分为4个组:模型对照组、密盖息治疗组,盐酸雷洛昔芬治疗组,假手术组。应用HOLOGIC第4代双能X线4500W骨密度仪测定大鼠腰椎、股骨上段骨密度值(BMD);以骨形态计量学测股骨骨小梁面积、矿化沉积率;用ELISA法测定血清IGF-1水平和血清25OHVitD浓度以及血淋巴细胞维生素D受体(VDR)含量。结果密盖息治疗组、盐酸雷洛昔芬治疗组均较OVX组腰椎、股骨上段骨密度增高,组间比较差异有显著性(P<0.01)。密盖息治疗组较盐酸雷洛昔芬治疗组股骨上段骨密度增高,两组之间差异有显著性(P<0.01)。密盖息治疗组骨小梁面积明显增加、矿化沉积率增高。密盖息治疗组、盐酸雷洛昔芬治疗组血清IGF-1浓度值、血清25-OHVitD浓度值升高,与OVX组比较差异有显著性(P<0.01)。各组血淋巴细胞VDR含量无明显变化,与OVX组比较差异无显著性(P>0.05)。结论密盖息能够预防腰椎、股骨上段骨密度丢失,使骨小梁面积明显增加、矿化沉积率增高并且血清IGF-1及血清25-OHVitD浓度值升高,但对VDR含量无明显作用。     

50 Hz 1.8 mT正弦交变电磁场通过调节成骨细胞PGE2的分泌影响Opg/Rankl的基因表达

前列腺素E2(prostaglandin E2, PGE2)作为细胞因子,在骨代谢中扮演重要角色. 它通过刺激成骨细胞核因子κB受体活化因子配基(receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand, RANKL)表达,促进破骨细胞的分化成熟. 然而,其是否参与了电磁场调节骨代谢仍不清楚.PGE2的生物合成受到环加氧酶(cyclooxygenase, COX)的调节. 在细胞中存在2种不同的环加氧酶,COX-1和COX-2. 其中,COX-2是引起PGE2分泌增加的主要原因. 其活性受到细胞核因子κB(nuclear factor kappa B, NF-κB)的调节.本文通过检测体外培养成骨细胞PGE2分泌,COX-2蛋白表达以及Cox-2、Opg、Rankl和Nf-κb 基因表达发现,经50 Hz 1.8 mT正弦交变电磁场(sinusoidal electromagnetic fields, SEMFs)处理后,由COX-2介导的PGE2分泌以及cox-2、Nf-κb的基因表达皆下调,但Nf-κb的变化先于cox-2的变化,而opg/rankl基因表达则恰恰相反,说明电磁场通过抑制Nf-κb的转录降低由COX-2介导的PGE2的分泌,进而降低对Rankl表达的刺激作用,抑制破骨细胞的分化成熟.

泼尼松灌胃与肌内注射对大鼠骨密度、骨生物力学性能及骨代谢的影响

目的观察泼尼松灌胃与肌内注射两种不同给药方法对大鼠骨密度、骨生物力学及骨代谢的影响。方法将45只SPF级雄性SD大鼠随机分为3组（正常组15只、灌胃组15只、肌内注射组15只）,其中正常组大鼠作为阴性对照,予0.9%生理盐水灌胃2 m L/d;灌胃组大鼠给予泼尼松0.5 mg/（kg·d）灌胃;肌内注射组大鼠给予泼尼松0.5 mg/（kg·d）;12周后测定离体的大鼠椎体骨密度及血清β-CTX、PINP水平变化,采用三点弯曲试验测量股骨皮质骨最大载荷、弹性载荷、断裂载荷等生物力学指标。结果与正常组相比,灌胃组及肌内注射组大鼠椎骨骨密度值均显著性降低（P〈0.05）;与灌胃组相比,肌内注射组大鼠椎骨骨密度显著下降（P〈0.05）;与正常组相比,灌胃组及肌内注射组大鼠股骨的弹性载荷、最大载荷、断裂载荷均显著降低（P〈0.05）,肌内注射组与灌胃组大鼠的弹性载荷、最大载荷、断裂载荷相比差异无显著性（P〉0.05）。与正常组相比,灌胃组及肌内注射组大鼠中血清β-CTX水平均显著升高（P〈0.05）而PINP水平均显著降低（P〈0.05）,与灌胃组相比,肌内注射组大鼠血清β-CTX水平显著升高（P〈0.05）而PINP水平显著降低（P〈0.05）。骨组织切片HE染色显示：肌内注射组大鼠的骨小梁明显纤细疏松,造血组织明显减少,脂肪组织明显增多。结论泼尼松对大鼠的骨密度、骨生物力学及骨代谢指标都有影响,而肌内注射泼尼松比口服对骨密度、骨强度、骨代谢的影响更大,更易造成骨质疏松症。因此,建议临床使用泼尼松时选择口服作为给药方式更安全。     

50Hz 1.8mT正弦交变电磁场通过调节成骨细胞PGE_2分泌影响Opg/Rankl的基因表达

前列腺素E2(prostaglandin E2,PGE2)作为细胞因子,在骨代谢中扮演重要角色.它通过刺激成骨细胞核因子κB受体活化因子配基(receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand,RANKL)表达,促进破骨细胞的分化成熟.然而,其是否参与了电磁场调节骨代谢仍不清楚.PGE2的生物合成受到环加氧酶(cyclooxygenase,COX)的调节.在细胞中存在2种不同的环加氧酶,COX-1和COX-2.其中,COX-2是引起PGE2分泌增加的主要原因.其活性受到细胞核因子κB(nuclear factor kappa B,NF-κB)的调节.本文通过检测体外培养成骨细胞PGE2分泌,COX-2蛋白表达以及Cox-2、Opg、Rankl和Nf-κb基因表达发现,经50 Hz 1.8 m T正弦交变电磁场(sinusoidal electromagnetic fields,SEMFs)处理后,由COX-2介导的PGE2分泌以及cox-2、Nf-κb的基因表达皆下调,但Nf-κb的变化先于cox-2的变化,而opg/rankl基因表达则恰恰相反,说明电磁场通过抑制Nf-κb的转录降低由COX-2介导的PGE2的分泌,进而降低对Rankl表达的刺激作用,抑制破骨细胞的分化成熟.     

钙、磷摄入对骨代谢及骨组织形态影响的研究进展

骨代谢始终贯穿于动物的生命过程之中,而机体摄入的钙、磷水平和钙、磷比例又是骨代谢的重要影响因素。钙、磷摄入水平和比例的改变会使甲状旁腺激素（PTH）、降钙素（CT）和1α,25-双羟维生素D3[1,25-（OH）2D3]的水平产生变化,影响RANK／RANKL／OPG系统对骨细胞功能的调控,进而对骨代谢及骨组织形态产生影响。骨唾液酸蛋白（Bone Sialoprotein,BSP）是目前评价成骨细胞分化和骨骼矿化情况的新指标,研究BSP表达水平的变化规律,可以从分子水平解释钙、磷摄入水平和比例对骨组织形态影响的机理。而骨组织形态计量学（Bone Histomorphometry）则是研究钙、磷摄入水平和比例对骨组织形态影响的重要方法。

Effect of bone mineral density on masticatory performance and efficiency

doi: 10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2010.00414.x Effect of bone mineral density on masticatory performance and efficiency Objective: To evaluate the effect of bone mineral density (BMD) on masticatory performance and efficiency in dentate subjects. Background data: Osteoporosis is the most common disorder of the bone. It causes reduction in BMD of the all the skeletal tissue including jaw bones. It also promotes bone loss in jaw bones. In osteoporosis, a reduction of maximal bite force and greater electromyography activity of masticatory muscles is documented. This may lead to the development of masticatory dysfunction which can be assessed by a chewing test in the form of change in masticatory performance and efficiency. Materials and methods: Sixty subjects with equal numbers of men and women were selected for the study, in which BMD screening (T‐score) was carried out to identify the normal, osteopenic and osteoporotic subjects. Their masticatory performance and efficiency was evaluated by a chewing test (fractional sieving method). Results: A high ‘T’ score was associated with low masticatory efficiency and a low ‘T’ score with high masticatory efficiency. Masticatory performance and efficiency was significantly higher among males as compared to females with similar range of BMD. Conclusion: In both genders, high BMD groups (low ‘T’ score) had a significantly high percentage of masticatory efficiency compared to the low BMD (high ‘T’ score) group.     

Sympathectomy alters bone architecture in adult growing rats

Sympathetic nervous system (SNS) fibres and alpha- and beta-receptors are present in bone, indicating that the SNS may participate in bone metabolism. The importance of these observations is controversial because stimulation or inhibition of the SNS has had various effects upon both anabolic and catabolic activity in this tissue. In this study we evaluated the effects of pharmacological sympathectomy, using chronic treatment of maturing male rats with 40 mg of guanethidine/kg i.p., upon various parameters in bone. Double labelling with tetracycline injection was also performed 20 and 2 days before sacrifice. Bone mass, mineral content, density and histomorphometric characteristics in different skeletal regions were determined. Bone metabolic markers included urinary deoxypyridinoline and serum osteocalcin measurements. Guanethidine significantly reduced the accretion of lumbar vertebral bone and of mineral content and density, compared to controls. Femoral bone mineral content and density were also significantly reduced, compared to controls. Histomorphometric analyses indicated these effects were related to a reduction of cortical bone and mineral apposition rate at femoral diaphysials level. Both markers of bone metabolism were reduced in controls as they approached maturity. Guanethidine significantly decreased serum osteocalcin compared to controls, while urinary deoxypyridinoline was unchanged. These data indicate that guanethidine-induced sympathectomy caused a negative balance of bone metabolism, leading to decreased mass by regulating deposition rather than resorption during modeling and remodeling of bone.     

Age-related changes of bone mineral density in human calcaneus, talus, and scaphoid bone

To examine whether the bone mineral density (BMD) decreases uniformly with aging in any spongy bones, the authors investigated age-related changes of BMD in the calcaneus, talus, and scaphoid bone. After the ordinary dissection by medical students was finished, calcanei, tali, and scaphoid bones were resected from the subjects, and BMDs were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Their BMDs seemed to decrease gradually with aging in the calcanei, tali, and scaphoid bones. It was found that there were statistically significant relationships between age and BMD in the men’s and women’s scaphoid bones, women’s tali, and women’s calcanei, but not in the men’s tali and calcanei. It should be noted that there were significant relationships between age and BMD in both men’s and women’s scaphoid bones. In regard to relationship in BMD between the bones of the upper and lower limbs in individuals, it was found that the relationship between the calcaneus and talus was higher than that between the calcaneus and scaphoid bone. This suggests that there is a higher relationship in BMD between the two tarsal bones compared with that between the tarsal and carpal bones.     

The effect of restriction of dietary calcium on trabecular and cortical bone mineral density in the rats

This study aimed to investigate effects of restricted calcium intake on cortical and trabecular bone density in white rats. Low Ca diet was fed for six weeks, and bone density and bone metabolism parameters were assessed in blood. This study was carried out on 12 male white rats aged 12 weeks (Sprague-Dawley; SD). These rats were bred for 1 week and randomly assigned to the standard calcium diet group (SCa group, n = 6) and the low calcium diet group (LCa group; n = 6). The SCa group was given a modified AIN-93M mineral mix (with 0.5% Ca), which was made by adding calcium to a standard AIN93 diet, and the LCa Group was fed a modified AIN-93 Mineral mix (with 0.1% Ca). Femoral BMD and BMC were measured by DEXA in each rat. After trabecular bone was separated from cortical bone, volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) was measured using pQCT. Serum Ca and P levels were measured as parameters of bone metabolism, and S-ALP, S-TrACP and-Dpd levels were also measured. The results revealed no significant differences in weight, growth rate, feed consumption and feed efficiency between the two groups before and after calcium-restricted diet (p > .05). No significant differences were also observed in bone length and bone mass between the two groups (p > .05). Although bilateral femoral BMDs were not significantly different between the two groups, bilateral femoral BMCs significantly decreased in the LCa group, compared with the SCa group (p = .023, p = .047). Bilateral cortical MDs were not significantly different between the two groups, either. However, trabecular BMD significantly decreased in the LCa group, compared with the SCa group (p = .041). U-Dpd and S-TrACP levels significantly declined in the LCa group, compared to the SCa group (p = .039, p = .010). There were no significant differences in serum Ca and P levels between the two groups (p > .05). However, a significant decrease in urinary Ca level (p = .001) and a significant increase in urinary P (p = .001) were observed in the LCa group, compared to the Sca group. These findings described that six-week low calcium diet led to decreased trabecular bone density, reduced urinary excretion of Ca and increased urinary excretion of P. As a result, Ca hemeostasis can be maintained.
