Pretreatment with anticatabolic agents blunts but does not eliminate the skeletal anabolic response to parathyroid hormone in oophorectomized mice.

چکیده
Previous studies have indicated that bisphosphonate pretreatment can inhibit the anabolic actions of PTH. We examined the capacity of two anticatabolic agents with different mechanisms of action, alendronate and osteoprotegerin (OPG), to influence the anabolic activity of PTH. Oophorectomized mice were pretreated for 30 d with alendronate or OPG and then treated for 30 d with the respective anticatabolic alone or the respective anticatabolic plus PTH(1-34). Bones were analyzed by bone mineral density (BMD), microcomputed tomography, histology and histomorphometry, and biochemical bone markers. OPG pretreatment produced a greater inhibition of bone turnover and a greater increase in bone than alendronate. Increases in bone were sustained during subsequent treatment with vehicle or continued administration of the anticatabolic. Pretreatment with each anticatabolic blunted the capacity of PTH to increase BMD and bone volume and continued treatment with each anticatabolic agent also reduced the effectiveness of PTH. Although both anticatabolics decreased the maximal PTH effect, BMD and bone volume increased more when PTH was added than when only anticatabolics were used. These results demonstrate that mechanistically distinct anticatabolics may reduce PTH efficacy, that the characteristics of this inhibition may reflect the different modes of action of the anticatabolics, but that the addition of PTH still provides a skeletal benefit even if the anabolic effect is submaximal.

Parathyroid hormone is essential for normal fetal bone formation.
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a potent pharmacologic inducer of new bone formation, but no physiologic anabolic effect of PTH on adult bone has been described. We investigated the role of PTH in fetal skeletal development by comparing newborn mice lacking either PTH, PTH-related peptide (PTHrP), or both peptides. PTH-deficient mice were dysmorphic but viable, whereas mice lacking PTHrP died at b...
متن کاملAnabolic Therapies
The striking clinical benefits of intermittent parathyroid hormone in osteoporosis have begun a new era of skeletal anabolic agents. Recombinant human parathyroid hormone (rhPTH) (1-34) is the first US Food and Drug Administration-approved anabolic therapy. Its use has been limited by the need for subcutaneous injection. Newer delivery systems include transdermal and oral preparations. Newer an...
متن کاملThe ternary IGF complex influences postnatal bone acquisition and the skeletal response to intermittent parathyroid hormone.
The role of circulating IGF-I in skeletal acquisition and the anabolic response to PTH is not well understood. We generated IGF-I-deficient mice by gene deletions of IGF ternary complex components including: (1) liver-specific deletion of the IGF-I gene (LID), (2) global deletion of the acid-labile (ALS) gene (ALSKO), and (3) both liver IGF-I and ALS inactivated genes (LA). Twelve-week-old male...
متن کاملProteoglycan 4: a dynamic regulator of skeletogenesis and parathyroid hormone skeletal anabolism.
Proteoglycan 4 (Prg4), known for its lubricating and protective actions in joints, is a strong candidate regulator of skeletal homeostasis and parathyroid hormone (PTH) anabolism. Prg4 is a PTH-responsive gene in bone and liver. Prg4 null mutant mice were used to investigate the impact of proteoglycan 4 on skeletal development, remodeling, and PTH anabolic actions. Young Prg4 mutant and wild-ty...

UNLABELLED PTH stimulates bone formation in Fgfr3 knockout mice through promotion of proliferation and differentiation in osteoblasts. INTRODUCTION Previous studies showed that endogenous fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) is required for parathyroid hormone (PTH)-stimulated bone anabolic effects, however, the exact mechanisms by which PTH stimulate bone formation and the function of FGF rece...
