Nuclear magnetic resonance techniques can measure the fluoride levels in bone of the finger after a patient has ingested F in the treatment of osteoporosis, but does uptake in cortical bone reflect uptake in the critical trabecular bone? Investigation has been made of the relative uptake of fluoride from drinking water into trabecular and cortical bone of the rat. For fine detail of the uptake of F into the femur and vertebra, microprobe techniques were used with a spatial resolution of 10 microns; for broader studies, treating the femur as representative of cortical bone and the vertebra as typical of trabecular bone, chemical techniques using spectroscopy and ion-selective electrodes were employed. The conclusion is that in the rat uptake of F by cortical bone is indicative of uptake by trabecular bone, and that therefore as a working hypothesis NMR measurement of F in the finger may be taken as reflecting uptake of F by trabecular bone.

Marrow-free trabecular bones from dog, man, monkey, and steer were obtained by use of a special marrowwashing technique. The quantities of the various trabecular bone fractions (water, organic, volatile inorganic, and nonvolatile inorganic (ash)) found in these animals were compared with those of cortical bone. The components of each of the two types of bones from the four species were found to be quantitatively similar to each other. However, the over- all density of the contical bone was higher than that of the trabecular bone. The higher density was due to a higher ash and a lower water content found in the cortical than in the trabecular bone. On the basis of the values found, graphs were prepared and the methods for the calculation of the volume and mass of the various bone fractions when given the mass and the ratio of trabecular to cortical ash were demonstrated.

To establish whether the combination of anti-resorptive therapy with mechanical loading has a negative, additive or synergistic effect on bone structure, we assessed the separate and combined effects of risedronate and non-invasive dynamic loading on trabecular and cortical bone. Seventeen-week-old female C57BL/6 mice were given daily subcutaneous injections of vehicle (n=20) or risedronate at a dose of 0.15, 1.5, 15 or 150 μg/kg/day (n=10 in each) for 17 days. From the fourth day of treatment, the right tibiae were subjected to a single period of axial loading (40 cycles/day) for three alternate days per week for two weeks. The left tibiae were used as internal controls. Trabecular and cortical sites in the tibiae were analyzed by high-resolution micro-computed tomography and imaging of fluorochrome labels. In the non-loaded tibiae, treatment with the higher doses of risedronate at 15 or 150 μg/kg/day resulted in higher trabecular bone volume and trabecular number than in vehicle-treated controls, whereas such treatment was associated with no differences in cortical bone volume at any dose. In the loaded tibiae, loading induced increases in trabecular and cortical bone volume compared with contra-lateral controls primarily through increased trabecular thickness and periosteal expansion, respectively, independently of risedronate treatment. In conclusion, the response to mechanical loading in both trabecular and cortical bone in mice is therefore not impaired by short-term treatment with risedronate, even over a 1000-fold dose range. In considering the optimization of treatments for osteoporosis, it is reassuring that anti-resorptive therapy and mechanical loading can exert independent beneficial effects.

본 연구의 목적은 생체 외 조건의 소 대퇴골에서 피질골이 해면질골의 음속(SOS) 및 광대역 초음파 감쇠(nBUA)와 같은 음향특성에 미치는 효과를 조사하는 것이다. 이를 위해 2개의 소 대퇴골을 이용하여 근위부로부터 12개의 해면질골 샘플 및 1.00, 1.47, 및 2.00 mm의 두께를 갖는 3개의 피질골 판을 제작하였다. 또한 해면질골 샘플에 피질골 판 부착 전후 측정된 음향특성과 해면질골 겉보기 골밀도 사이의 상관관계를 조사하였다. 해면질골 샘플의 초음파 입사면에 부착된 피질골 판의 두께가 증가함에 따라 SOS는 선형적으로 증가하는 반면에 nBUA는 피질골 판의 두께에 대해 비선형적인 의존성을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 서로 다른 두께를 갖는 피질골 판이 부착되더라도 SOS(r = 0.95-0.97) 및 nBUA(r = 0.53-0.73)와 해면질골 겉보기 골밀도 사이의 높은 상관관계는 유지되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같은 결과는 생체 외 조건의 피질골이 제거되지 않은 대퇴골에서 측정된 음향특성이 해면질골의 골밀도를 예측하기에 충분한 지표라는 것을 의미한다. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of cortical bone on acoustic properties of trabecular bone, such as speed of sound (SOS) and normalized broadband ultrasound attenuation (nBUA), in bovine femur in vitro. Twelve trabecular bone samples and three cortical bone plates with thicknesses of 1.00, 1.47, and 2.00 mm were extracted from the proximal end of two bovine femurs. The correlations between acoustic properties and trabecular apparent bone density were also examined before and after attaching a cortical bone plate to the trabecular bone samples. SOS increased linearly with increasing thickness of the cortical plate attached to one side of ultrasonic incidence of the trabecular bone samples, whereas nBUA showed a nonlinear dependence on the thickness of the cortical plate. All the SOS (r = 0.95-0.97) and nBUA (r = 0.53-0.73) measurements with and without the cortical bone plate with various thicknesses were found to exhibit high correlations with the trabecular apparent bone density. These results imply that the acoustic properties measured in the femur with lateral cortical layers in vitro can be useful indices for the prediction of trabecular bone mineral density.
