The present study examined the effect of intermittent fasting (IF) on bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) and the markers of bone remodeling in a glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO) rat model.
Forty male rats were allocated to 4 groups (N=10 per group): control group of normal rats; control+IF group (normal rats subjected to IF for 16-18 hr daily for 90 days); dexamethasone (DEX) group: (DEX [0.5 mg i.p.] for 90 days); and DEX+IF group (DEX and IF for 90 days). By the end of the experiment, BMD and BMC in the right tibia were measured. Serum levels of the following were measured: glucose; insulin; triglycerides (TGs); total cholesterol; parathyroid hormone (PTH); osteoprotegerin (OPG); receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (RANK); bone-resorbing cytokines, including bone deoxypyridinoline (DPD), N-terminal telopeptide of collagen type I (NTX-1), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAP-5b); and bone-forming cytokines, including alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OC).
DEX administration for 90 days resulted in significantly increased serum levels of glucose, insulin, TGs, cholesterol, PTH, OPG, DPD, NTX-1, and TRAP-5b and significantly decreased BMD, BMC, and serum levels of RANK, OC, and ALP (all P<0.05). IF for 90 days significantly improved all these parameters (all P<0.05).
IF corrected GIO in rats by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis and PTH secretion and stimulating osteoblast activity.
本研究在糖皮质激素诱导的骨质疏松症(GIO)大鼠模型中,检测了间歇性禁食(IF)对骨矿物质含量(BMC)、骨矿物质密度(BMD)以及骨重塑标志物的影响。
将40只雄性大鼠分为4组(每组n = 10):正常大鼠对照组;对照+IF组(正常大鼠每日进行16 - 18小时间歇性禁食,持续90天);地塞米松(DEX)组(腹腔注射DEX [0.5 mg],持续90天);以及DEX + IF组(DEX和IF处理90天)。实验结束时,测量右侧胫骨的BMD和BMC。检测以下血清水平:葡萄糖;胰岛素;甘油三酯(TGs);总胆固醇;甲状旁腺激素(PTH);骨保护素(OPG);核因子κB受体激活剂(RANK);骨吸收细胞因子,包括骨脱氧吡啶啉(DPD)、I型胶原N端前肽(NTX - 1)和抗酒石酸酸性磷酸酶5b(TRAP - 5b);以及骨形成细胞因子,包括碱性磷酸酶(ALP)和骨钙素(OC)。
给予DEX 90天导致血清葡萄糖、胰岛素、TGs、胆固醇、PTH、OPG、DPD、NTX - 1和TRAP - 5b水平显著升高,BMD、BMC以及血清RANK、OC和ALP水平显著降低(均P < 0.05)。90天的IF显著改善了所有这些参数(均P < 0.05)。
IF通过抑制破骨细胞生成和PTH分泌以及刺激成骨细胞活性来纠正大鼠的GIO。
