Efectos de la administración local de PTH 1-34 a bajas dosis en un modelo experimental de periodontitis: estudio piloto / Local effects of low dose of PTH 1-34 on experimental periodontitis: pilot study

La periodontitis es una patología inflamatoria que aumenta la resorción de hueso alveolar (HA), pérdida de la inserción dentaria y posible exfoliación. Evaluamos el efecto de la administración intermitente de bajas dosis de parathormona (PTH) 1-34 sobre la recuperación de la masa ósea pérdida en un modelo experimental de periodontitis inducida por una ligadura periodontal (LP) con hilo de algodón alrededor de la pieza dentaria. Las ratas fueron divididas luego de 5 días en instaurada la periodontitis en: CT LP sin trata-miento y PTH LP tratados con 0,2 µg/kg PTH 1-34 subcutánea local, tres veces por semana por 17 días. El control absoluto fue un tercer grupo sin LP (CT). Se estudiaron parámetros antropométricos, bioquímicos e histomosfométricos en tibias y hemimandibulas. La calcemia, fosfatemia, CTX sérico, PTHi y vo-lumen óseo (BV/TV%) de tibias fueron similares en los tres grupos. El BV/TV% del HA fue significativamente menor en PTH LP respecto de CT pero mayor que CT LP (p<0.05). La pérdida ósea de HA porcentual fue significativamente mayor en CT LP (p<0.05). La altura del ligamento periodontal fue significativamente menor en PTH LP que en CT (p<0.05) y mayor respecto de CT LP, sin alcanzar diferencias significativas. Los resultados del presente estudio piloto sugieren que la administración intermitente de PTH en bajas dosis y durante un periodo de tiempo corto disminuye la progresión de la enfermedad periodontal sin generar efectos sistémicos. Como no se logró regenerar totalmente el tejido periodontal se requieren estudios adicionales. (AU)

Periodontitis is an inflammatory chronic disease with high prevalence in adults that induces a progressive alveolar bone (AB) loss leading to tooth loss. Experimental periodontitis can be induced in rats by cotton ligature placement (LP) in the gingival sulcus around the molar teeth. The biofilm accumulation and disruption of the gingival epithelium lead to bone resorption. We investigated whether intermittent administration of a low dose of PTH 1-34 may recover the alveolar bone loss in the experimental periodontitis induced in female Wistar rats. Animals were randomly divided in two groups which were subcutaneously injected with: saline solution (CT LP) or 0,2 µg/kg PTH 1-34 (PTH LP) three times per week during 17 days. Unligated rats were taken as healthy controls (CT). Anthropometric, biochemical and histologic analysis of tibia and hemimandible were done. No differences in serum calcium, phosphorus, CTX, PTHi or subchondral tibia bone volume (BV/TV%) were observed between the three groups. AB BV/TV% was significantly lower in PTH LP than in CT but higher than in CT LP (p<0.05). The highest percentage of AB loss was observed in CT LP. The height of periodontal ligament was lower in PTH LP than in CT (p<0.05) but not significantly higher than CT LP.The increase in AB loss by experimental periodontitis appears to be corrected by the intermittent administration of low doses of PTH without systemic effect. As the recovery of periodontal tissue was only partial, additional studies should be done.

Comparison of the Effects of Strontium Ranelate and PTH (1-34)on Bone Quality of Ovariectomized Rats / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects of strontium ranelate and PTH(1-34)on bone quality of ovariectomized rats. METHODS:80 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(group A,n=10)and dual ovariectomy(group B,n=70). 3 months after operation,group B were randomly divided into 7 groups,with 10 rats in each group. B0 group were given nor-mal saline [0.9 g/(kg·d)] subcutaneously;B1-B3 groups were given low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose of strontium ranelate [0.45,0.9,1.35 g/(kg·d)] intragastrically;B4-B6 groups were given low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose of PTH(1-34)[30, 60,90 μg/(kg·d),treated for 5 days,rested for 2 days] subcutaneously. Group A was same to group B0 in therapy regimen. All rats were sacrificed 8 weeks later. The contents of P1NP and CTX-1 in serum of rats were determined by ELISA assay;bone densi-ty of 4th lumbar vertebrae was detected by bone densitometer;BV/TV,Tb.Th,Tb.N and Tb.Sp were detected by CT;maximal load and elastic modulus of 5th lumbar vertebrae were measured by compression test. RESULTS:Compared with group A,the se-rum levels of P1NP and CTX-1 in B0-B6 groups increased significantly,while bone density of 4th lumbar vertebrae,maximal load and elastic modulus of 5th lumbar vertebrae decreased significantly in B0-B3 groups(P0.05). CONCLUSIONS:PTH(1-34) is better than strontium ranelate in inhibiting bone loss,improving vertebral bone micro-structure and biomechanical properties of ovariectomized rats.

PLGA microsphere loading with PTH(1 -34)promotes osteogenesis:An in vitro study / 实用口腔医学杂志

Objective:To determin the effect of PLGA microspheres loading with PTH(1 34)[PTH(1 34)/PLGA]on the differentiation of MC3T3E1 cells.Methods:MC3T3E1 cells were divided into control group,continuous or intermittent PTH(1 34)adminstration groups,PLGA microsphere group and PTH(1 34)/PLGA group.Osteogenesis differentiation was observed by alkaline phosphatase activity(ALP),alizarin red staining and RTPCR.Results:The PTH(1 34)/PLGA with 1 0 -9 mol/L final release concentration enhanced ALP activity and mineralization,increased the mRNA expression of RUNX2,ALP and VEGF.Conclusion:Controlledrelease of PTH(1 34)from PLGA microspheres can promote the osteogenesis differentiation of MC3T3E1 cells.
