Effects of a metabolic syndrome induced by a fructose-rich diet on bone metabolism in rats

<em>Objective.</em> The aims of this study were: first, to evaluate the possible effects of a fructose rich diet (FRD)-induced metabolic syndrome (MS) on different aspects of long bone histomorphometry in young male rats; second, to investigate the effects of this diet on bone tissue regeneration; and third, to correlate these morphometric alterations with changes in the osteogenic/adipogenic potential and expression of specific transcription factors, of marrow stromal cells (MSC) isolated from rats with fructoseinduced MS. <em>Materials/Methods</em>. MS was induced in rats by treatment with a FRD for 28 days. Halfway through treatment, a parietal wound was made and bone healing was evaluated 14 days later. After treatments, histomorphometric analysis was performed in dissected femoral and parietal bones. MSC were isolated from the femora of control or fructose-treated rats and differentiated either to osteoblasts (evaluated by type 1 collagen, Alkaline phosphatase and extracellular nodule mineralization) or to adipocytes (evaluated by intracellular triglyceride accumulation). Expression of Runx2 and PPARγ was assessed by Western blot. <em>Results.</em> Fructose-induced MS induced deleterious effects on femoral metaphysis microarchitecture and impaired bone regeneration. Fructose treatment decreased the osteogenic potential of MSC and Runx2 expression. In addition, it increased the adipogenic commitment of MSC and PPARγ expression. <em>Conclusions</em>. Fructose-induced MS is associated with deleterious effects on bone microarchitecture and with a decrease in bone repair. These alterations could be due to a deviation in the adipogenic/osteogenic commitment of MSC, probably by modulation of the Runx2/PPARγ ratio

Metformin prevents anti-osteogenic in vivo and ex vivo effects of rosiglitazone in rats

Long-term treatment with the insulin-sensitizer rosiglitazone reduces bone mass and increases fracture risk. We have recently shown that orally administered metformin stimulates bone reossification and increases the osteogenic potential of bone marrow progenitor cells (BMPC). In the present study we investigated the effect of a 2-week metformin and/or rosiglitazone treatment on bone repair, trabecular bone microarchitecture and BMPC osteogenic potential, in young male Sprague-Dawley rats. Compared to untreated controls, rosiglitazone monotherapy decreased bone regeneration, femoral metaphysis trabecular area, osteoblastic and osteocytic density, and TRAP activity associated with epiphyseal growth plates. It also decreased the ex vivo osteogenic commitment of BMPC, inducing an increase in PPARγ expression, and a decrease in Runx2/Cbfa1 expression, in AMP-kinase phosphorylation, and in osteoblastic differentiation and mineralization. After monotherapy with metformin, with the exception of PPARγ expression which was blunted, all of the above parameters were significantly increased (compared to untreated controls). Metformin/rosiglitazone co-treatment prevented all the in vivo and ex vivo anti-osteogenic effects of rosiglitazone monotherapy, with a reversion back to control levels of PPARγ, Runx2/Cbfa1 and AMP-kinase phosphorylation of BMPC. In vitro co-incubation of BMPC with metformin and compound C-an inhibitor of AMPK phosphorylation-abrogated the metformin-induced increase in type-1 collagen production, a marker of osteoblastic differentiation. In conclusion, in rodent models metformin not only induces direct osteogenic in vivo and ex vivo actions, but when it is administered orally in combination with rosiglitazone it can prevent several of the adverse effects that this thiazolidenedione shows on bone tissue.Fil: Sedlinsky, Claudia.
