甲状旁腺激素1-34、阿仑膦酸钠、辛伐他汀治疗大鼠骨质疏松效果的比较

BACKGROUND:Bone resorption drugs in the treatment of osteoporotic fracture are still controversial. The development of new drugs, especially drugs in the promotion of bone formation, become more important and urgent.  OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of parathyroid hormone (1-34), alendronate sodium and simvastatin on bone loss in ovariectomized rats. METHODS: Thirty female Sprague-Dawley rats aged 3 months were randomized into five groups of six animals in each group. All rats but those in sham group received dual ovariectomy (OVX) and treated by vehicle (OVX+V), parathyroid hormone (1-34) (5 days per week at a dose of 20 μg/kg, OVX+P), alendronate sodium (70 μg/kg/wk, OVX+A), simvastatin (5 mg/kg/d, OVX+S). Three months later, all rats were sacrificed. Dual energy X-ray method was used to measure bone density of L4 vertebra. Bone histomorphometry was utilized to analyze cancellous bone mass and bone microstructure. Compression test was performed on the L5 vertebra for the maximum loading and elastic modulus.   RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Bone density: The bone density from high to low levels was OVX+P group, sham group, OVX+A group, OVX+S group, and OVX+V group. No significant difference in bone density was detectable between the OVX+P and sham groups, but significant differences in bone density were determined between any other two groups (P < 0.05). (2) Bone histomorphometry: Relative volume of trabecular bone was significantly lower in the OVX+V group than in other groups. Relative volume of trabecular bone was remarkably higher in the OVX+P group than in the OVX+A group and OVX+S group. (3) Biomechanical properties: Biomechanical properties were noticeably lower in the OVX+V group than in other groups. Biomechanical properties were remarkably higher in the sham group and OVX+P group than in the OVX+S group and OVX+A group. (4) These findings indicated that under the dosage and intervention period used in the present study, parathyroid hormone (1-34), alendronate sodium and simvastatin showed anti-osteoporosis effect on OVX rats in a descending manner.中国组织工程研究杂志出版内容重点：组织构建；骨细胞；软骨细胞；细胞培养；成纤维细胞；血管内皮细胞；骨质疏松；组织工程
