Prevention of osteocyte and osteoblast apoptosis by bisphosphonates and calcitonin
Open accessAbstract
Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis may be due, in part, to increased apoptosis of osteocytes and osteoblasts, and bisphosphonates (BPs) are effective in the management of this condition. We have tested the hypothesis that BPs suppress apoptosis in these cell types. Etidronate, alendronate, pamidronate, olpadronate, or amino-olpadronate (IG9402, a bisphosphonate that lacks antiresorptive activity) at 10(-9) to 10(-6) M prevented apoptosis of murine osteocytic MLO-Y4 cells, whether it was induced by etoposide, TNF-alpha, or the synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone. BPs also inhibited apoptosis of primary murine osteoblastic cells isolated from calvaria. Similar antiapoptotic effects on MLO-Y4 and osteoblastic cells were seen with nanomolar concentrations of the peptide hormone calcitonin. The antiapoptotic effect of BPs and calcitonin was associated with a rapid increase in the phosphorylated fraction of extracellular signal regulated kinases (ERKs) and was blocked by specific inhibitors of ERK activation. Consistent with these in vitro results, alendronate abolished the increased prevalence of apoptosis in vertebral cancellous bone osteocytes and osteoblasts that follows prednisolone administration to mice. These results suggest that the therapeutic efficacy of BPs or calcitonin in diseases such as glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis may be due, in part, to their ability to prevent osteocyte and osteoblast apoptosis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
