We compared the effects of risedronate (Ris) and calcitriol (Cal) on cancellous osteopenia in rats treated with high-dose glucocorticoid (GC). Forty female Sprague-Dawley rats, 4 months of age, were randomized by the stratified weight method into four groups of 10 rats each according to the following treatment schedule: intact control, and GC administration with vehicle, Ris, or Cal. The GC (methylprednisolone sodium succinate, 5.0 mg/kg, s.c.), Ris (10 microg/kg, s.c.), and Cal (0.1 microg/kg, p.o.) were administered 3 times a week. At the end of the 4-week treatment period, bone histomorphometric analysis was performed for cancellous bone of the proximal tibial metaphysis. The GC administration decreased cancellous bone volume (BV/total tissue volume [TV]), trabecular number (Tb N), and trabecular thickness (Tb Th), as a result of increased bone resorption and decreased bone formation. Ris treatment markedly increased cancellous BV/TV and Tb N above the control level as a result of suppressed bone turnover. On the other hand, Cal treatment attenuated the GC-induced decrease in cancellous BV/TV and Tb Th as a result of suppressed bone resorption and maintained bone formation. This study showed the differential effects of Ris and Cal on cancellous osteopenia in rats treated with high-dose GC.
我们比较了利塞膦酸盐(Ris)和骨化三醇(Cal)对高剂量糖皮质激素(GC)治疗的大鼠松质骨骨质减少的影响。40只4月龄雌性Sprague-Dawley大鼠,根据分层体重法随机分为四组,每组10只,按照以下治疗方案给药:完整对照组,以及给予GC加赋形剂、Ris或Cal。GC(甲泼尼龙琥珀酸钠,5.0mg/kg,皮下注射)、Ris(10μg/kg,皮下注射)和Cal(0.1μg/kg,口服)每周给药3次。在4周治疗期结束时,对胫骨近端干骺端的松质骨进行骨组织形态计量学分析。由于骨吸收增加和骨形成减少,GC给药降低了松质骨体积(BV/总体积[TV])、骨小梁数量(Tb N)和骨小梁厚度(Tb Th)。Ris治疗由于抑制了骨转换,使松质骨BV/TV和Tb N显著高于对照水平。另一方面,Cal治疗由于抑制了骨吸收并维持了骨形成,减轻了GC诱导的松质骨BV/TV和Tb Th的降低。本研究显示了Ris和Cal对高剂量GC治疗的大鼠松质骨骨质减少的不同作用。
