Effect of bisphosphonate on bone microstructure, mechanical strength in osteoporotic rats by ovariectomy
Abstract Background Bisphosphonate (BP) can treat osteoporosis and prevent osteoporotic fractures in clinical. However, the effect of BP on microstructure and mechanical properties of cortical and trabecular bone has been taken little attention, separately. Methods In this study, BP was used to inte...

description | Abstract Background Bisphosphonate (BP) can treat osteoporosis and prevent osteoporotic fractures in clinical. However, the effect of BP on microstructure and mechanical properties of cortical and trabecular bone has been taken little attention, separately. Methods In this study, BP was used to intervene in ovariectomized female SD rats. The femoral micro-CT images were used to measure the structural parameters and reconstruct the 3D models in volume of interest. The structural parameters of cortical and trabecular bone were measured, and the mechanical properties were predicted using micro-finite element analysis. Results There was almost no significant difference in the morphological structure parameters and mechanical properties of cortical bone between normal, ovariectomized (sham-OVX) and BP intervention groups. However, BP could significantly improve bone volume fraction (BV/TV) and trabecular separation (Tb.SP) in inter-femoral condyles (IT) (sham-OVX vs. BP, p < 0.001), and had no significant effect on BV/TV in medial and lateral femoral condyles (MT, LT). Similarly, BPs could significantly affect the effective modulus in IT (sham-OVX vs. BP, p < 0.001), and had no significant difference in MT and LT. In addition, the structural parameters and effective modulus showed a good linear correlation. Conclusion In a short time, the effects of BP intervention and osteoporosis on cortical bone were not obvious. The effects of BP on trabecular bone in non-main weight-bearing area (IT) were valuable, while for osteoporosis, the main weight-bearing area (MT, LT) may improve the structural quality and mechanical strength of trabecular bone through exercise compensation. |
