    Notes: [Auszug] For example, osteoporosis, in which the bone mass is decreased, might arise from a relative deficiency of pyrophosphate at sites of resorption, a deficiency which would allow the mineral to dissolve faster than normal. Unfortunately pyrophosphate cannot itself be used to suppress bone resorption in ...

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'effet de doses quotidiennes, administrées depuis la naissance, de deux types de diphosphonates, à savoir l'éthane-1-hydroxyle-1,1-diphosphonate (EHDP) et le dichlorométhylène diphosphonate (Cl2MDP), sur la croissance et le squelette de souris a été étudié. Les diphosphonates freinent la croissance: les incisives ne font pas leur éruption ou elle est plus tardive. La calcémie est normale. L'administration de Cl2MDP à une dose quotidienne de 10 mg P/kg/jour provoque des modifications squelettiques identiques à celles des souris grises létales atteintes d'ostéopétrose et les animaux meurent après quatre semaines de traitement. Par rapport aux témoins, les souris traitées présentent des os plus étroits, plus denses et plus déformés: les cavités médullaires sont comblées avec de l'os calcifié et du cartilage. La quantité totale de calcium d'un animal n'est pas augmentée par traitement au diphosphonate, par rapport à un témoin de même âge. Chez les souris grises létales et celles traitées aux diphosphonates, la plupart des anomalies est secondaire à une résorption osseuse diminuée. Ces résultats sont commentés en fonction de l'emploi des diphosphonates au cours de remaniements osseux pathologiques augmentés et en fonction du rôle de la résorption osseuse dans le maintien de la calcémie.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Mäuse erhielten von der Geburt an tägliche Dosen folgender zwei Diphosphonate: entweder Äthan-1-Hydroxy-1,1-Diphosphonat (EHDP) oder Dichloromethylen-Diphosphonat (Cl2MDP). Es wurde deren Wirkung auf das Wachstum und das Skelet untersucht. Die Diphosphonate verlangsamten das Wachstum, die Schneidezähne brachen nicht oder erst später durch, aber die Höhe des Plasmacalciums blieb normal. Die Verabreichung von Cl2MDP in Dosen von 10 mg P/kg/Tag führt zu Skeletveränderungen, welche denjenigen der „grey-lethal” osteopetrotischen Mäuse gleichen. Die Tiere sterben nach einer Behandlungsdauer von etwa 4 Wochen. Verglichen mit normalen Mäusen von ungefähr gleichem Alter hatten die behandelten Mäuse kleinere, dichtere und mehr keulenförmige Knochen, und die Markhöhlen waren gefüllt mit verkalktem Knochen oder Knorpel. Die Gesamtcalciummenge im Skelet wurde durch die Diphosphonatbehandlung nicht erhöht; dies ergab sich aus einem Vergleich mit der bei normalen Mäusen desselben Alters gefundenen Menge. Es wird vorgeschlagen, daß bei den „grey-lethal” und bei den Diphosphonat-behandelten Mäusen viele der Abnormalitäten als Folge der herabgesetzten Knochenresorption angesehen werden müssen. Die Ergebnisse werden einerseits im Hinblick auf den Gebrauch der Diphosphonate bei pathologischen Bedingungen eines erhöhten Knochenumbaus diskutiert; andererseits werden sie im Zusammenhang mit der Rolle der Knochenresorption bei der Erhaltung des Plasmacalcium-Spiegels besprochen.
    Notes: Abstract The effect of daily doses from birth of two diphosphonates, namely either ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate (EHDP) or dichloromethylene diphosphonate (Cl2MDP), on the growth and the skeleton of mice has been studied. Diphosphonates slowed growth, the incisors did not erupt or erupted later, but the level of plasma calcium remained normal. The administration of Cl2MDP at a dose rate of 10 mg P/kg/day leads to skeletal changes that are similar to those observed in grey-lethal osteopetrotic mice, and the animals die after about four weeks of treatment. As compared with normal mice of similar age, treated mice had bones that were smaller, denser and more clubshaped, and the marrow cavities were filled with calcified bone or cartilage. The total amount of calcium in the carcass was not increased by diphosphonate treatment, as compared with the amount in normal mice of the same age. It is suggested that both in the grey-lethal and diphosphonate-treated mice many of the abnormalities are secondary to decreased bone resorption. The results are discussed with respect to the use of diphosphonates in pathological conditions of increased bone turnover and with respect to the role of bone resorption in the maintenance of plasma calcium levels.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Lors d'essais précédents, nous avons montré que le pyrophosphate minéral (PPi) inhibe in vitro la dissolution de cristaux d'hydroxyapatite et nous avons suggéré que le PPi pourrait être un régulateur physiologique de la résorption osseuse. Dans ce travail, nous avons cherché si le PPi ainsi que d'autres produits phosphorés ont une action inhibitrice sur la résorption osseuse induite par l'hormone parathyroïdienne dans des calottes craniennes de souris et sur l'augmentation du calcium plasmatique induite par l'hormone parathyroïdienne chez des rats thyroparathyroïdectomisés maintenus en régime déficient en calcium. Ni l'orthophosphate, ni le pyrophosphate, ni les polyphosphates, ni deux phosphates polymérisés, inhibiteurs des phosphatases, n'ont inhibé la résorption des calottes craniennes, ni l'augmentation du calcium plasmatique. Par contre, certains phosphonates, contenant la liaison P-C-P, ont réduit la dissolution in vitro de cristaux d'hydroxyapatite et inhibé la résorption osseuse en culture de tissus à une concentration aussi faible que 1,6×10−6 molaire. Certains diphosphonates ont inhibé également l'augmentation du calcium plasmatique chez des rats thyroparathyroïdectomisés. La différence d'activité des produits contenant la liaison P-O-P ou P-C-P peut être attribuée à une plus grande résistance des derniers à une hydrolyse chimique ou enzymatique. Les phosphonates peuvent servier de modèle pour étudier l'action du PPi endogène de l'os. Ils peuvent également être utiles pour éclaircir le mécanisme de la formation et de la destruction osseuse et pourraient jouer un rôle dans la thérapie des maladies présentant une résorption osseuse accrue.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Frühere Untersuchungen zeigten, daß anorganisches Pyrophosphat (PPi) die Auflösung von Hydroxyapatit-Kristallenin vitro hemmt; es wurde vorgeschlagen, daß PPi physiologisch die Knochenresorption regulieren könnte. Bei diesem Versuch wurden PPi und andere Phosphatderivate auf ihre Eignung geprüft, die Knochenresorption zu hemmen, welche an Mäusecalvarien durch Parathormon hervorgerufen wurde; ebenso wurde abgeklärt, ob diese Substanzen in thyroparathyreoidektomierten, auf calciumarmer Diät gehaltenen Ratten in der Lage waren, den durch Parathormongaben verursachten Blutcalciumanstieg zu hemmen. Weder Orthophosphat, noch Pyrophosphat, Polyphosphat und zwei polymere Phosphatinhibitoren der Phosphatasen konnten die Resorption von Calvarien oder den Anstieg des Plasmacalciums hemmen. Dagegen verzögerten verschiedene Phosphonate mit P-C-P-Bindungen die Auflösung von Hydroxyapatitin vitro und hemmten dazu in so tiefen Konzentrationen wie 1,6×10−6M die Knochenresorption in der Gewebezucht. Einige Diphosphonate hemmten auch den Plasmacalciumanstieg bei thyroparathyreoidektomierten Ratten. Eine Ursache der unterschiedlichen Wirksamkeit von Substanzen, welche P-O-P- oder P-C-P-Bindungen enthalten, kann darin liegen, daß die letztgenannten einen größeren Widerstand gegenüber chemischer und enzymatischer Hydrolyse entgegenbringen. Phosphonate könnten als Model für die Wirkung des endogenen PPi im Knochen dienen und zudem zur Erläuterung der Mechanismen von Knochenbildung und-resorption nützlich sein; sie könnten auch zur Therapie jener Krankheiten, die eine erhöhte Knochenresorption zur Folge haben, herangezogen werden.
    Notes: Abstract Earlier studies have shown that inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) inhibits the dissolution of hydroxyapatite crystalsin vitro and it has been suggested that PPi might be a physiological regulator of bone resorption. In this study PP1 and other phosphate compounds have been tested for their ability to inhibit bone resorption induced by parathyroid hormone in mouse calvaria and to inhibit the rise in plasma calcium induced by parathyroid hormone in thyroparathyroidectomised rats on a low calcium diet. Orthophosphate, pyrophosphate, polyphosphate and two polymeric phosphate inhibitors of phosphatases did not inhibit the resorption of calvaria or the rise in plasma calcium. In contrast, several phosphonates containing P-C-P bonds retarded the dissolution of hydroxyapatite crystalsin vitro, and, at concentrations down to 1.6×10−6M, inhibited bone resorption in tissue culture. Some diphosphonates also inhibited the rise in plasma calcium in thyroparathyroidectomised rats. One reason for the difference between the effects of compounds containing P-O-P and P-C-P bonds may be related to the greater resistance of the latter to chemical and enzymic hydrolysis. Phosphonates may provide a model for the effect of endogenous PP1 in bone, and might be of use in elucidating provide a model for the effect of endogenous PP1 in bone, and might be of use in elucidating mechanisms of bone formation and resorption and in the therapy of diseases that involve increased resorption of bone.

    Notes: Abstract. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible inhibitory effect of ipriflavone on bone resorption in rats. For this purpose, 10-week-old, intact and ovariectomized (OVX) rats, prelabeled from birth with [3H]-tetracycline, were used. Bone resorption was monitored by measuring the urinary excretion of [3H]. The animals were fed a purified diet devoid of naturally occurring flavonoids. In the intact rats, the daily meal was given either as a single portion or divided into four portions, a procedure known to lead by itself to a decrease in bone resorption. Ipriflavone, given 7 days after OVX at the dose of 400 mg/kg B.W. daily mixed with the food, led within 2–3 days to a significant decrease in bone resorption equivalent to that of 27.2 μg/kg S.C. of 17β-estradiol. The inhibition was sustained for the length of the experiment, up to 21 days. Ipriflavone given 7 days before OVX prevented the increase in bone resorption induced by castration, the effect being dose-dependent between 50 and 400 mg/kg B.W. In contrast to 17β-estradiol, a 5-week treatment with ipriflavone failed to prevent the OVX-induced uterine atrophy. Significant inhibition of bone resorption was also seen in intact animals, provided they rapidly ingested the daily meal. Actually, the decrease in bone resorption induced by portioning the daily food masked the inhibitory effect of ipriflavone in intact animals. In conclusion, ipriflavone can decrease bone resorption in both intact and OVX animals given a purified diet as a single daily meal. In the OVX model, ipriflavone mimics the osteoprotective effect of estrogen. However, the lack of a uterotropic effect suggests that the compound can discriminate between bone and reproductive tissues.

    Notes: Abstract. Gastrectomy leads to osteopenia in the rat. The present study describes the effects of gastrectomy on bone morphology. Rats were subjected to gastrectomy or sham operation. Four weeks after the operation the rats were killed and both tibiae were removed. Bone morphology of the left tibia was analyzed with quantitative computer tomography, the right tibia with histomorphometry. Bone length, bone mineral content, as well as indices of bone resorption and formation were measured in the metaphysis and the diaphysis. Gastrectomy had no effect on longitudinal bone growth but it led to a low bone mineral content at both sites. Bone resorption was increased by gastrectomy, as shown by an increase in the medullary cavity area in the diaphysis. Gastrectomy also reduced bone formation, as shown by a decreased periosteal circumference and a decrease in the mean periosteal bone apposition in the diaphysis. In conclusion, gastrectomy-evoked osteopenia reflects impaired formation and increased resorption of bone.
