COX-2 Effects on Fracture Healing

• The healing of stabilized tibia fractures was delayed in COX-2 knockouts compared to wild-type animals and to COX-1 knockouts

• In radiographic analysis at 21 days post-fracture normal healing found in:

• 8 out of 10 wild-type mice

• five out of six COX-1 knockouts

• three out of eight COX-2 knockouts

•Zhang X, Schwarz EM, Young DA, Puzas JE, Rosier RN,O’Keefe RJ. Cyclooxygenase-2 regulates mesenchymal cell differentiation into the osteoblast lineage and is critically involved in bone repair. J Clin Invest 2002;109:1405–15.

Indomethacin vs. Coxibs on fracture healing

• Celecoxib or Rofecoxib evaluated in femur fracture in rats

• All three drugs inhibited fracture healing

• 8 week results healed:

• Control 7/7

• Indomethacin 6/8

• Celecoxib 0/6

• Rofecoxib 0/5

Acetaminophen vs. Celecoxib Femur fracture repair in rats

• Acetaminophen - no delayed healing

• Celecoxib - impaired healing when observed at 8 weeks

Bone formation process

• Ostoclasts ➙ resorption ➙ free up BMPs

• BMPs ➙ osteoblasts ➙ bone formation

Prostaglandins & bone formation

• PGs ↑ # and activity of osteoclasts = bone resorption

• PGs ↑ replication and differentiation of osteoblasts = bone formation

• PGs ↑ blood supply through vasodilation & ↑ angiogenesis

• Raisz LG. Prostaglandins and bone: physiology and pathophysiology. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 1999;7:419-21

Cylooxygenases

• COX-1: expressed in normal bone and at bone fracture sites

• COX-2: up-regulated during initial stages of bone repair

• Osteoclasts and osteoblasts produce PGs (PGE2)

• Radi ZA et al. Effects of cyclooxygenase inhibition on bone tendon, and ligament healing. Inflamm Res 2005;54:358-66

Pharmacology Principles

• Dose

• Route of administration

• Duration

NSAIDs

• Therapeutic effect achieved by inhibition of COX-2

• Selective COX-2 inhibitors reduce risk of GI adverse events

• ? - Will these drugs impact bone healing

COX-2 effect on bone healing

• Abundant experimental data suggest that non-selective NSAIDs delay fracture healing. (Vuolteenaho K, et al. Non-steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, Cycloxxygenase-2 and the Bone Healing Process)

A-HA study

• Non-selective naproxen and Cox-2 selective rofecoxib - harvest chamber implanted in rat tibia

•↓ bone formation observed at 4 weeks

• Effect was dependent upon duration of treatment

• 2 week course at the beginning or at the end of a 6 week harvest period did not inhibit bone ingrowth to the same degree as did continuous treatment (Pharmacology principle)

• Goodman Sb, et al. Temporal effects of a COX-2-selective NSAID on bone ingrowth. J Biomed Mater Res A 2005;72:279-87

• Goodman SB, et al. Cox-2 selective NSAID decreases bone in growth in vivo. J Orthop Res 2002;20:1162-9

Semi-selective COX-2

• Etodolac at 3 time frames

• Group 1: treatment for the entire 3-week duration

• Group 2: treatment for the first week

• Group 3: treatment for the final third week

• Results: Impaired healing for groups 1 and 2 only

• Endo K, et al. Cyclooxygenase-2 inhibor delays fracgtue healing in rats. Acta Orthop 2005;76:470-4

Celecoxib - Treatment time

• Impaired femoral fracture healing in rats when administered during the first 2 weeks after fractue

• No significant effect when administered starting 14 days later

• Simon AM, et al. Dose and time-dependent effects of cyclooxygenase-inhibition on fracture-healing. J Bone Joint Surg Am 2007;89:500-11

Selective and nonselective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors and experimental fracture-healing. Reversibility of effects after short-

term treatment

• ED50 doses used of ketorolac (non-selective) and valdecoxib (COX-2 selective) for either 7 or 21 days after fracture in rats

• 7-day treatment produced a trend for nonunion fracture healing for both ketorolac and valdecoxib

• 21-day treatment produced significantly nore non unions in the valdecoxib group vs ketorolac or controls

• PGE2 levels decreased but if drugs d/c after 6 days the levels of PGE2 rebounded 2-fold by day 14

Flurbiprofen - a friend • The Effect of Systemic Flurbiprofen on Bone Supporting Dental

Implants. Jeffcoat MK et al. JADA Vol 126 March 1995: 305-11

• Observed alveolar bone changes surrounding mandibular dental implants in 29 patients at 6, 9, and 12 months after implant placement to determine the effect of the flurbiprofen treatment on the implant’s success or failure

• Digital subtraction radiography as measurement tool

• Group 1: placebo BID

• Group 2: 50 mg flurbiprofen BID

• Group 3: 100 mg flurbiprofen BID

• Dosing began on day of implant surgical placement

Results

• Significant changes in bone height occurred following exposure and loading of the implant, between the 3rd and 6th months of the study

Conclusion• The basic pathophysiology and pharmacokinetics underlying

the effect(s) of NSAIDs on bone could be used to support either positive or negative effects on bone.

• THINK ABOUT THIS:

• Excessive PGE2 formation can result in bone loss

• Controlling PGE2 formation may be good

• However, PGE2 in the right concentration promotes bone formation

• What should we do?

Conclusion

• This study provides preliminary data that suggest that systemic administration of flurbiprofen may reduce bone loss around dental implants in the first year of service

FDA Pregnancy Categories Five categories to indicate the potential of a drug to cause birth defects if used during

Category A

Adequate and well-controlled studies have failed to demonstrate a risk to the fetus in the first trimester of pregnancy (and there is no evidence of risk in later trimesters).

Category B

Animal reproduction studies have failed to demonstrate a risk to the fetus and there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women.

Category C

Animal reproduction studies have shown an adverse effect on the fetus and there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in humans, but potential benefits may warrant use of the drug in pregnant women despite potential risks.

James L. Rutkowski, D.M.D., Ph.D.

FDA Pregnancy Categories Five categories to indicate the potential of a drug to cause birth defects if used during

Category D

There is positive evidence of human fetal risk based on adverse reaction data from investigational or marketing experience or studies in humans, but potential benefits may warrant use of the drug in pregnant women despite potential risks.

Category X

Studies in animals or humans have demonstrated fetal abnormalities and/or there is positive evidence of human fetal risk based on adverse reaction data from investigational or marketing experience, and the risks involved in use of the drug in pregnant women clearly outweigh potential benefits.

How does stress induce ↑ Corticosteroid production?

• At the hypothalamus, fear-signaling impulses activate both the sympathetic nervous system and the modulating systems of the HPA axis.

• E/NE will positively feedback to the pituitary and increase the breakdown of POMCs (Pro-opiomelanocortin) into ACTH

• Corticosteroids play an important role in control of pain & inflammation associated with numerous disease states of oral cavity.

• Currently corticosteroids are drugs with one of the broadest spectrum of clinical utility.

• But it should never be used as a substitute to other treatments.

• Lets keep it mind that these drugs do not cure the disease but rather control or relieve the symptoms.

• It should be used cautiously as it is two edged sword

Warfarin (Coumadin®)

I have finished reviewing the OOOOE article on warfarin. Bottom line, there is no statistical weight whatsoever behind the article's recommendation to withhold warfarin.  The EUV estimates are separated by only 0.02, and all of the probabilities used to estimate the two EUV values are themselves estimates (from other literature, no less).

This article is in no way a breakthrough or landmark. Would it be okay for me to call you and discuss in more detail my critique of the article? I can call most any time/day this week or next; just let me know.

dabigatran (Pradaxa®) Boehringer Ingelheim

• For prevention of stroke and systemic embolism (blood clots) in patients with atrial fibrillation

• first replacement for warfarin (Coumadin®) since Coumadin was approved in 1954.

“Serine protease”

dabigatran (Pradaxa®) anticoagulant

• acts by inhibiting thrombin, an enzyme in the blood that is involved in blood clotting

• thrombin (serine protease) enables the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin during the coagulation cascade, its prevention prevents the development of a thrombus.

• recommended dose is a 150 mg capsule taken orally

• Warfarin therapy requires patients to undergo periodic monitoring with blood tests

• INR monitoring not necessary for dabigatran.

dabigatran (Pradaxa®)• Measure of Effect

• At therapeutic doses prolongs the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)

• oral dose of 150 mg twice daily, the median peak aPTT is approximately twice that of control values

• Twelve hours after the last dose, the median aPTT is 1.5x control

• INR test is relatively insensitive to the activity of dabigatran and may not be elevated in patients on dabigatran.

dabigatran (Pradaxa®)

• Absorption and Metabolism

• After swallowing a dabigatran (Pradaxa) capsule, peak blood level occurs in 1 hour. The half-life is 12 to 17 hours.

• not metabolized by CYP enzymes

• After oral administration, dabigatran etexilate is converted to dabigatran through esterase-catalyzed hydrolysis of the molecule in plasma

• Dabigatran is not a substrate, nor inhibitor, nor inducer of CYP 450 enzymes

Dabigatran and Risk of Bleeding

• ↑ risk of bleeding and can cause significant, and sometimes fatal, bleeding

• Drugs that can increase the risk of bleeding include antiplatelet agents and chronic use of NSAIDs

• RE-LY trial, life-threatening bleeding occurred at an annualized rate of 1.5% for Pradaxa 150 mg and 1.8% for warfarin.

• Discontinuing Pradaxa for surgery places the patient at an↑ risk of stroke

• If anticoagulation must be temporarily discontinued for any reason, therapy should be restarted as soon as possible.

• Dental patients who may have a high risk of bleeding if taking Pradaxa include those over 75 years of age, or are taking aspirin, or long term NSAIDs, or clopidogrel (Plavix®) or prasugrel (Effient®).

• Fasting (8 hours) blood glucose >126 mg/dl

• Random blood glucose > 200 mg/dl

• 4 hour Post prandial glucose >140 mg/dl

Infection and Wound Healing

• Difficulty managing infections

• Hyperglycemia reduces phagocytic action of granulocytes

• Hyperglycemia promotes growth of microorganisms

• Impaired wound healing

• Ketoacidosis inhibits migration of granulocytes

• Vascular wall changes, vascular insufficiency, decreased blood blow and reduced Oxygen tension

Oral Complications of Diabetes

• Uncontrolled Diabetes Mellitus

• Xerostomia

• Infection

• Poor healing

• Increased incidence and severity of periodontal disease

• Burning mouth syndrome

• Oral fungal infections (Candida, Mucomycosis)

Success Rates and Diabetes Mellitus

• Implant success rates 85.6% (Fiorellini et al., 2000) to 94.3% (Balshi & Wollfinger, 1999)

• Early implant failure rate 3.2% vs. late implant failure rate 5.4% (Esposito et al., 1997)

• Various reports show increased failure rate after 1 year (Fiorellini et al., 2000; Morris et al., 2000; Shernoff et al., 1994)

3James L. Rutkowski, D.M.D., Ph.D.

Diabetes Mellitus• Animal studies

• Sig. reduced bone-to-implant contact in uncontrolled diabetics vs non-diabetics • Nivens et al., 1998; Takeshita et al., 1998

• Insulin-controlled DM had greater bone density than non-controlled DM • Fiorellini et al., 1999

• For DM osseointegration was reduced 1o in trabecular bone, whereas no differences were seen in cortical bone • McCracken et al., 2000

James L. Rutkowski, D.M.D., Ph.D. 4

Diabetes Mellitus

•Insulin deficiency

•Hyperglycemia • Ketoacidosis & atherosclerosis (due to absence of influence on lipid

metabolism)

•Absolute • Type 1 diabetes

•Relative • Type 2 diabetes

• Beta cells synthesize insulin but an at an inadequate amount • Tissue receptors are resistant to insulin action

5James L. Rutkowski, D.M.D., Ph.D.

Gluconeogenesis

•Complex biochemical pathway

•Results in the synthesis of glucoses from AA’s derived from protein catabolism

•Insulin inhibits this process •By promoting protein synthesis •Inhibiting enzymes vital for gluconeogenesis

Insulin

•⇑ blood glucose is sensed by beta cells (islets of langerhans - pancreas)

•Provides stimulus for insulin secretion

James L. Rutkowski, D.M.D., Ph.D. 11

INSULIN

•Purpose - transport glucose into cells where it can best used for energy reactions

•In skeletal muscle & liver glucose is stored as glycogen for later use

• This can result in hypoglycemia

James L. Rutkowski, D.M.D., Ph.D. 28

Considerations for Recombinant and

Autogenous Growth Factors

Bone-Growth Modifying Methods

• Recombinant Growth Factors • rhBMP-2 (Infuse) • rhPDGF-BB (Gem-21S)

• Blood Concentrates • PRP • PRF • PRF

What are recombinant Growth Factors?

• Recombinant: an organism or cell in which genetic recombination has taken place (material produced by genetic engineering)

• Growth factors: chemical messengers that induce cell growth by tissue type (e.g., osteoinductive, epidermal, vascular endothelial,TGF-β1).

How is rhBMP-2 made?

• Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic protein-2

• Produced in E.Coli as a homodimeric, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 115 amino acids

• Molecular mass of 26018 Daltons

• BMP-2 is purified and reproduced using recombinant DNA technology.

Recombinant BMPs• rhBMP-2 (recombinant human BMP-2)

• rhBMP-7 [recombinant human osteogenic protein-1 (rhOP-1)]

• rhGDF-5 [recombinant human growth ⁄ differentiation factor-5 (rhGDF-5); also known as recombinant human cartilage derived morphogenetic protein-1(rhCDMP-1)]

• All of the above have been combined with a variety of candidate biomaterials used as delivery systems

BMPs• Soluble

• Delivered in a buffer solution

• clearance rapid

• < 5% of the BMP dose remains at the site, whereas combinations with gelatin foam or collagen showed increased retention ranging from 15 to 55% (Hollinger et al. 1998)

• Biomaterials that retain and sequester BMPs at the site enhance efficacy and reduce protein dose by localizing the morphogenetic stimulus (Chen and Mooney 2002)

Infuse® Bone Graft Oral Maxillofacial Indications

• Alternative to autogenous bone graft for:

• Sinus augmentation

• Augmentations of defects associated with extraction sockets

Delivery of recombinant bone morphogenetic proteins (rhBMPs) for bone regeneration and

repair. Part A: Current challenges in BMP delivery • Biotechnol Lett (2009) 31:1817-1824Haidar ZS,

Hamdy RC, Tabrizian M.

• Exact cellular and molecular mechanisms not fully characterized

• Small amounts induce cellular responses in vitro

• In vivo, rapid degradation and insufficient and improper tissue regeneration occurred (Engstrand et al. 2008)

• Clinical efficacy of recombinant human forms of BMPs depends on the carrier system used to ensure an effective delivery of adequate protein concentrations (Mont et al. 2004)

A comprehensive clinical review of recombinant human bone morphogenetic

protein-2 (INFUSE® Bone Graft)• Combination of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2

(rhBMP-2) on an absorbable collagen sponge (ACS) carrier has been shown to induce bone formation in a number of preclinical and clinical investigations

• 2002, FDA-approved Infuse as an autograft replacement for certain interbody spinal fusion procedures

• 2004, INFUSE® Bone Graft was approved for open tibial fractures with an intermedullary (IM) nail fixation

• March 2007, INFUSE® Bone Graft was approved as an alternative to autogenous bone grafts for sinus augmentations, and localized alveolar ridge augmentations for defects associated with extraction sockets.

Critical-size Supra-alveolar Peri-Implant Defect Model -Litmus Test

Sigurdsson TJ, Fu E, Tatakis DN, Rohrer MD, Wikesjo¨ UME. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 enhances peri-implant bone regeneration and osseointegration. Clin Oral Implants Res 1997;8:367–74.

rhBMPs - Side Effects• Tissue effects are occasionally overwhelming

• Soft tissue edema, erythema, local inflammation, heterotopic ossification and immune response are the most remarkable

• Osteoclastic activation noted in some cases

• Large doses = bone resorption occurred (Gautschi et al. 2003)

Adverse Events Reported After the Use of Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2

Emily Jane Woo; J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2011.

• Results: As of April 30, 2011

• 83 reports of adverse events after oral and maxillofacial operations involving rhBMP-2

• 55 (66.3%) described off-label uses, such as reconstruction of the mandible after fracture or cancer or alveolar cleft repair

• Most commonly reported adverse events included local reactions, graft failure, infections, and other wound complications

• 30.1% stated that the patient required additional surgery to address the reported adverse event.

Adverse Events Reported After the Use of Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2

• Conclusions: Serious adverse events, some of which may require a second operation, can occur after the use of rhBMP-2 in oral and maxillofacial procedures. In this analysis graft, failure and pseudarthrosis were more commonly reported after off-label uses of rhBMP-2 than approved uses.

Conclusion

• The gene expression levels of BMP-2 and the components of the BMP-signaling pathway are highly conserved among most OCCA cell lines

• Continued caution should be used for considering the therapeutic use of rhBMP-2 for reconstruction of bone defects in oral cancer patient

• Background: rhBMP-2 is used as a bone graft substitute in spinal fusion

• Accuracy and completeness of journal publications of industry-sponsored trials on the effectiveness and harms

of rhBMP-2 has been called into question

• Purpose: To independently assess the effectiveness and harms of rhBMP-2 in spinal fusion and reporting bias in industry-sponsored journal publications

rhBMP-2 total cancer cases 38 (total pts. = 1116)

Dose range 4.2 - 40 mg.

ICBG or AD total cancer cases 17 (total pts. =

1517)

Typical dental dose of rhBMP-2 = 1 to 12

mg.

It’s all Pharmacology

1. Is it the dose? 1mg or 40 mg? 2. Is it the route of administration? Collagen sponge or

no Collagen sponge? 3. Is it the duration? retained at the site or free to move

about the body ? 4. Is it the site of administration? Spine or jaw?

Secret to staying out of trouble with Infuse

USE THE SPONGE!!!!! Keep it at the site of

administration Use as little as possible

Objective: Determine if PRP can ↑ the osteoinductivity of

demineralized bone matrix (DBM) when used with or

without thrombin activation

Bone Formation (3 samples) 56 days post intramuscular implantation

Conclusion: Platelet-rich plasma significantly increased in vivo demineralized bone matrix osteoinductivity only when used without thrombin activation.

Bovine Thrombin Controversy

• Study: when properly administered PRP can enhance the osteoinductivity of demineralized bone matrix (DBM) preparations

• Bovine-derived thrombin-activated PRP (1000U/mL) inhibits osteoinducivity

• Bovine thrombin-activated PRP is not recommended to be used in combination with demineralized bone matrix

• PRP is an attractive adjuvant to DBM only without the prior activation by bovine thrombin

A comparative study of platelet-rich fibrin (RPF) and platlet-rich plasma (PRP) on the effect of proliferation and differentiation of rat osteoblasts in vitro Ling, Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod 2009;108:707-713

• Objective. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of biologic characteristics of platelet-rich plasma (PRP)and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on proliferation and differentiation of rat osteoblasts.

Study design. Blood samples were collected from 14 healthy volunteers (7 male) with a mean age of 23.2 2.24years. PRP and PRF were prepared with standard protocols. The exudates of PRP and PRF were collected at the timepoints of 1, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. The levels of platelet-derived growth factor AB (PDGF-AB) and transforminggrowth factor 1 (TGF-1) were quantified in PRP and PRF. Then the exudates of PRP and PRF were used to culturerat calvaria osteoblasts. The biologic characteristics of osteoblasts were analyzed in vitro for 14 days.Results. PRP released the highest amounts of TGF-1 and PDGF-AB at the first day, followed by significantlydecreased release at later time points. PRF released the highest amount of TGF-1 at day 14 and the highest amountof PDGF-AB at day 7. Exudates of PRP collected at day 1 and exudates of PRF collected at day 14 expressedmaximum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, though no significance was shown. Cells treated with exudates of PRFcollected at day 14 reached peak mineralization significantly more than both negative control and positive controlgroups. PRF is superior to PRP, from the aspects of expression of ALP and induction of mineralization.

Conclusions. PRF released autologous growth factors gradually and expressed stronger and more durable effect on proliferation and differentiation of rat osteoblasts than PRP in vitro.

SSRIs What Happened

• Initially Implants were successful • Good mechanical primary

stability • Acceptable bone quality and

quantity • Appropriate implant dimensions • Good initial and early healing

• Failures • Occurred when loaded

307

James L. Rutkowski, D.M.D., Ph.D.

Loading Issues - Why

• Serotonin plays important role in anabolic response of bone to mechanical loading (Sibilia et al. 2013)

• Hypothesis: Excess serotonin might cause bone mass loss by inhibiting the anabolic bone-remodeling processes triggered by mechanical loading

308

James L. Rutkowski, D.M.D., Ph.D.

SSRI Failure - Possible Solutions

• Longer healing times • Longer progressive loading time

periods • Splinting of implants

• NSAIDs

• Anticoagulants

• Bisphosphonates

• Corticosteroids

• Anti-neoplastic

• Antiepileptic

• Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs (DMARDS)

Anticoagulants

• Warfarin inhibits two reactions of the vitamin K cycle at the quinone reductase and epoxide reductase levels, causing a functional shortage of vitamin K - which is important for bone formation and skeletal integrity

• Dabigatran is a direct inhibitor of thrombin (serine protease), blocking the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin and thereby preventing thrombosis

• Conclusions

• Treatment with warfarin was associated with decreased bone volume, increased trabecular separation and higher turnover compared to that observed in dabigatran-treated or control rats

• These findings suggest that dabigatran has a better bone safety profile than warfarin. Since warfarin treatment affects bone by reducing trabecular size and structure, increasing turnover and reducing mineralization, these differences could translate into a lower incidence of fractures in dabigatran treated patients.

• Observed alveolar bone changes surrounding mandibular dental implants in 29 patients at 6, 9, and 12 months after implant placement to determine the effect of the flurbiprofen treatment on the implant’s success or failure

• Digital subtraction radiography as measurement tool • Group 1: placebo BID • Group 2: 50 mg flurbiprofen BID • Group 3: 100 mg flurbiprofen BID • Dosing began on day of implant surgical placement

Results

Conclusion

•The basic pathophysiology and pharmacokinetics underlying the effect(s) of NSAIDs on bone could be used to support either positive or negative effects on bone. •THINK ABOUT THIS: •Excessive PGE2 formation can result in bone loss •Controlling PGE2 formation may be good •However, PGE2 in the right concentration promotes

bone formation •What should we do?

Conclusion

•Preliminary data suggest that systemic administration of flurbiprofen may reduce bone loss around dental implants in the first year of service

James L. Rutkowski DMD, PhD

Summary • Continual usage of NSAIDs and COX-2 inhibitors

in patients with chronic arthritis, chronic pain syndromes, and other chronic diseases undoubtedly interferes with fracture healing, bone ingrowth, and other related processes. When the patient has sustained a fracture, it may be prudent to discontinue these medications, at least temporarily, to promote fracture healing.

•Lithium = ↑ secretion of parathyroid hormone ∴ ↓ BMD (?)

•Recommendation: •Therapy (> 1 year) perform BMD studies yearly •Calcium 1,500 mg/day •Vitamin D 400-800 IU/day •Vitamin K2

Anti-epileptic Drugs (AEDs)

• Induce cytochrome P-450 enzymes = affect bone metabolism •↑ catabolism of vitamin D → decreased bioavailability

of vitamin D; impaired calcium absorption; alterations in bone formation and degradation; abnormal PTH release; abnormalities in calcitonin or Vitamin K •Hypocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, ↓ activity of vitamin

D metabolites, ↑ PTH release •Phenytoins (Dilantin) •Phenobarbital •Carbamazepine (Tegretol ®) •Valproate disodium (Depakote®)

Statins

•Atrovastatin (Lipitor®), Fluvastatin (Lescol®), Lovastatin (Mevacor®), Mevastatin (Compactin®), Pravastatin (Pravachol®), Dosuvastatin (Crestor®), Simvastatin (Zocor®)

•Prevent cardiovascular events •↓ production of cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins, ↑ coronary vasodilation, ↓ inflammation •↑ BMP-2 release by osteoblasts •↓ osteoclast differentiation •∴ increase BMD

Antacids

•Phosphorus essential for bone formation

•Aluminum-containing antacids bind phosphate ∴ cannot be absorbed from the gut

• lead to hypophosphatemia = metabolic bone disease

Glucocorticosteroids

•Dexamethasone (Decadron®)

•Prednisone

•Methylprednisolone (Medrol®)

•Bone effects

•Suppression of intestinal calcium absorption •↓ renal tubular calcium reabsorption •↑ urinary calcium excretion

Glucocorticosteroids

•Suppressed osteoblast function = ↓ bone formation

•↑ parathyroid secretion

•↓ estrogen and testosterone = bone resorption

•promote apoptosis of osteoblasts and osteocytes

•↑ production of RANKL = ↑ osteoclasts

Glucocorticosteroids

• Long-term chronic use ↓ COX-2 expression and therefore PG production

• Result: Bone loss

Osteoporosis Therapy

• Inhibitors of bone resorption • Reduce osteoclast activity

• Bisphosphonates: alendronic acid, zolindronic acid, pamidonic acid, ibandronic acid

• Initially depress osteoclast activity and stimulate osteoblast activity •>2.5 years induces osteonecrosis in skeletal areas of high

concentration •Necrosis of osteoclasts, osteoblasts, and osteocytes •Dead bone

Bone Grafting Techniques and Utilization of Bio-Activators

Bone - Why we are lucky

• Regenerate and repair itself

• Heals without scar formation (usually)

Bone - Why we are unlucky• Insufficient blood supply

• Infection

• Systemic disease

• Osteoporosis, Diabetes Mellitus, Renal Disease, Hypocalcemia

• Effect of medications

• DMARDs, Monoclonal antibodies, Bisphosphonates, Steroids,

Today = Tissue Engineering• Relevant scaffolds

• Growth factors and cells

• Stem cells

• Design scaffolds and tissue grafts to decrease the disadvantages of traditional grafts

• Improve graft incorporation, osteogenicity, osteoconductivity, and osteoinductivity

Tissue Engineering Limitations

• Host graft interaction

• Immune response to these implants, scaffolds, and viable grafts are still not clear

Five stages of graft incorporation

• Inflammation

• Re-vascularization (capillary buds invade the graft)

• Osteoinduction (differentiation of multipotent cells into osteoblasts)

• Osteoconduction (ingrowth into the graft by means of the host)

• Remodeling

Inflammation• Th-1 lymphocytes produce pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-2,

interferon-ɣ, TNF-∝)

• Poor tissue remodeling and rejection of both allo- and xenografts

• Th-2 lymphocytes produce anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, Il-10) and do not activate macrophage

• Graft integration

Activation of lymphocytes

• Cellular grafts elicit M1 macrophage response

• Activates Th-1 lymphocytes leading to connective tissue formation and graft rejection

• Acellular grafts elicit M2 macrophage response

• Activates Th-2 lymphocytes leading to tissue remodeling and graft acceptance

Re-vascularization• Cortical grafts

• Vascularization is slower and occurs along Haversian canals

• Osteoclastic resorption is a prerequisite before osteoblasts can produce new bone

• Cancellous grafts converted by creeping substitution

• Vascularization is faster

• Newly formed osteoblasts line the trabeculae to form new bone simultaneous to resorption of bone by osteoclasts

Bone grafting materials in critical defects in rabbit calvariae. A systematic review and quality evaluation using ARRIVE guidelines

• Four parameters were analyzed by histomorphometry:

• New bone formation (NB)

• Defect closure (DC)

• Residual graft (RG)

• Connective tissue (CT)

• Animal Research Reporting in In Vivo Experiments (ARRIVE) guidelines

• List of 20 aspects for scoring to ensure comparison between different experimental studies in animals were used to evaluate the quality of the selected works.

Particulate size

• Conclusion 100-μm to 500-μm is ideal

• For larger volume then use above mixed with 750-μm to 1000-μm

Scaffold Pore Size and Interparticulate space• pores must facilitate diffusion of oxygen and nutrients

• Optimal pore size, definitely greater than 100 μm

• Must optimize the surface area that is available for cell attachment

• Pores too small inhibit cellular migration and produce necrosis

• Pores too large, don’t provide sufficient surface area for cell attachment and compromise structural integrity

• recent study of interconnected porous scaffolds found that 350-μm and 800-μm pores play a limited role in bone regeneration, thus pore features other than size may play important roles

• Another study showed that although initial cell adhesion (48 h postseeding) reaches a maximum value for a mean pore size of 120 μm, overall cell migration is greatest for pore sizes larger than 300 μm

Scaffold pore size and Inter-particulate space

• Conclusion: most likely scaffold pore size and inter-particulate spaces of 300-μm is ideal

When Should Biologics be Used?

• Severe atrophic jaws

• Medically compromised

• Systemic disease

• Medications

• Sites with low vascularity

• Previous failures

Which Biologic

• Blood concentrates - Every case

• Recombinant growth factors - medically compromised, no history of cancer, previous failure, esthetically demanding

• Stem cells - medically compromised, previous disaster, esthetically demanding, hopeless case

Fragmented Adipose Tissue Graft for Bone Healing: Histological and

Histometric Study in Rabbit’s Calvaria

• Study design

• 42 rabbits

• CSD that were 15 mm in diameter

• defects were randomly divided into two groups

• Group C (control), the defect was filled only by a blood clot

• Group FAT (i.e., fragmented adipose tissue), the defect was filled with fragmented autogenous adipose tissue grafts.
