Bone development/growth and fracture repair

Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serinethreonine kinase that plays a central role in a number of key cellular pathways that have been previously implicated in bone formation. mTOR mediates these diverse roles by forming two multi-protein complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2, each of which is defined by unique proteins raptor and rictor respectively.Studies from our laboratory have previously demonstrated that inhibition of mTORC1 increases the ost...

MEK inhibitors in fracture healing and NF1 pseudarthrosis

Little David , El-Hoss Jad , Kollind Mille , Deo Nikita , McDonald Michelle , Sullivan Kate , Little Chris , Schindeler Aaron

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disorder with an incidence of 1/3000. Inactivating mutations in the NF1 gene cause Ras-MEK overstimulation, and predisposes NF1 patients to cancer. A new generation of MEK inhibitors (PD0325901 and AZD6244) are under clinical trials in cancer patients, including NF1 patients. Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia is a major complication for NF1 patients, and associates with loss-of-heterozygosity of the NF1 gene. The primary aim of ...

Vascularisation and progenitor cells of primary and secondary ossification centres in the human growth plate

Walzer Sonja M , Cetin Erdal , Grubl-Barabas Ruth , Sulzbacher Irene , Ruger Beate , Girsch Werner , Windhager Reinhard , Fischer Michael B

The switch from a cartilage template to bone during endochondralossification of the growth plate requires dynamic and close interaction between the cartilage and the developing vascular structures. Vascular invasion of hypertrophic cartilage, with blood vessels coming from the bone collar, serves to bring in osteoblast- andendothelial precursor cells along with chondroclasts and their precursors into future ossification centres of the growth plate.Potent...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of anabolic PTH on periodontal repair and mandibular bone defect in rats. Fenestration defects were created unilaterally of lower first molars in Wistar rats (n=32), and both periodontal ligament and cementum were removed. Animals were treated 3 times a week and then assigned to four groups (n=8): i) C14 placebo administration for 14 days; ii) P14 PTH administration for 14 days; iii) C21 pl...

Microtomography analysis of bone formation in calvarial defects filled with gelatin sponge or fibrin glue

de Santana Santos Thiago , Lopes Helena Bacha , Almeida Adriana Luiza , Beloti Marcio Mateus , Rosa Adalberto Luiz

Bone tissue engineering relies on the combination of scaffolds and cells aiming to heal bone defects. Among the many candidates for scaffolds, gelatin sponge (Gelfoam®) and fibrin glue (Tissucol®) are of interest due to the well-established biocompatibility and the ability to be loaded with cells. Here, we evaluated their potential to stimulate bone formation by microtomography analysis. For this, 5-mm unilateral calvarial defect was created in rats deeply anesthetiz...

A novel biocompatible BMP6 carrier device for bone regeneration

Grgurevic Lovorka , Erjavec Igor , Jankolija Morana , Popek Irena , Olic Anamarija , Topic Smiljka Vikic , Verbanac Donatella , Peric Mihaela , Oppermann Hermann , Vukicevic Slobodan

Bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP6) is a member of TGF-β superfamily with a high potential to induce new bone and cartilage. Here we demonstrate that BMP6 compared to the BMP7 paralog has unique biological properties. Previously, we showed that BMP6 is more active at lower amounts then BMP7 because of increased resistance to noggin due to lysine in position 60. Next, we discovered that BMP6 binds to blood coagulum components, which when modified with calcium salt and a fi...

The P2Y₂ receptor restrains BMD during development

Syberg Susanne , Ellegaard Maria , Schwarz Peter , Jorgensen Niklas Rye

The P2Y2 receptor is a G-protein-coupled receptor and the natural ligands (ATP/UTP) strongly inhibit mineralized bone nodule formation by osteoblasts in vitro. We have earlier shown that overexpression of the P2Y2 receptor in vivo resulted in decreased bone mineral density (BMD), partially due to increased bone resorption, but also decreased formation (detected by serum bone markers and bone histomorphometry).This ...

Long bone phenotypic analyzes of a RANK transgenic mouse line

Baaroun Vanessa , Coudert Amelie , Marty Caroline , Castaneda Beatriz , Berdal Ariane , Descroix Vianney

Introduction: Bone metastasis pathophysiology is currently defined as a vicious circle. Indeed, tumor cells co-express RANK-L and its receptor, RANK, allowing their own proliferation and peritumoral bone resorption necessary to the lesion expansion. Odontogenic tumors, which occur within the jaw, seem to present the same pathophysiological characteristics. Thus, studying the impact on bone of RANK over-expression by the osteoclasts would permit a better understanding of those ...

The sealing zone is not required for mineralized cartilage resorption during endochondral ossification and growth of long bone

Touaitahuata Heiani , Cres Gaelle , Blangy Anne

Introduction: Osteoclasts are the only cells with the capacity to degrade mineralized matrices, such as bone and calcified cartilage. During bone remodeling, osteoclasts secrete protons to achieve the acidic dissolution of hydroxyapatite to make bone collagen amenable to digestion by the proteases they produce. This requires the sealing zone, a ring of densely packed podosomes that surrounds the ruffled border, which is the secretion apparatus of the bone resorbing osteoclasts...

While the connection between under-nutrition and growth retardation is well documented, the opposite connection between over-nutrition and bone development was barely studied.
