Abstract
During orthodontic tooth movement, bone resorption occurs at the compression site. However, the mechanism underlying resorption remains unclear. Applying compressive force to human osteoblast-like cells grown in a 3D collagen gel, we examined gene induction by using microarray and RT-PCR analysis. Among 43 genes exhibiting significant changes, cyclo-oxygenase-2, ornithine decarboxylase, and matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) were up-regulated, whereas membrane-bound interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein was down-regulated. The MMP-3 protein increases were further confirmed by Western blot. To ascertain whether MMP-3 is up-regulated in vivo by orthodontic force, we examined human bone samples at the compressive site by realigning the angulated molars. Immunohistochemical staining revealed MMP-3 distributed along the compressive site of the bony region within 3 days of compression. Since MMP-3 participates in degradation of a wide range of extracellular matrix molecules, we propose that MMP-3 plays an important role in bone resorption during orthodontic tooth movement.

Abstract
The study investigated whether chronic ethanol (ETH) intake and subsequent ETH exposure of cell cultures affects osteoblast differentiation by evaluating key parameters of in vitro osteogenesis. Rats were treated with 5-20% (0.85-3.43 mm) ETH, increasing by 5% per week for a period of 4 weeks (habituation), after which the 20% level was maintained for 15 days (chronic intake). Bone-marrow stem cells from control (CONT) or ETH-treated rats were cultured in osteogenic medium which was either supplemented (ETH) or not supplemented (CONT) with 1.3 mm ethanol. Thus, four groups relating to rat treatment/culture supplementation were evaluated: (1) CONT/CONT, (2) ETH/CONT, (3) CONT/ETH and (4) ETH/ETH. Cell morphology, proliferation and viability, total protein content, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and bone-like nodule formation were evaluated. Chronic ethanol intake significantly reduced both food and liquid consumption and body weight gain. No difference was seen in cell morphology among treatments. Cell number was affected at 7 and 10 days as follows: CONT/CONT = CONT/ETH < ETH/CONT = ETH/ETH. Doubling time between 3 and 10 days was greater in groups of CONT animals: ETH/ETH = ETH/CONT < CONT/ETH = CONT/CONT. Cell viability and ALP activity were not affected by either animal treatment or culture exposure to ethanol. At day 21, the total protein content was affected as follows: ETH/ETH = CONT/ETH < ETH/CONT = CONT/CONT. Bone-like nodule formation was affected as follows: ETH/ETH < CONT/ETH < ETH/CONT < CONT/CONT. These results show that chronic ethanol intake, followed by the exposure of osteoblasts to ethanol, inhibited the differentiation of osteoblasts, as indicated by an increased proliferation rate and reduced bone-like nodule formation.

Abstract
With rising rates of alcohol consumption acute and chronic damage from alcohol is expected to increase all over the world. Habitual excessive alcohol consumption is associated with pathological effects on bone. The aim of the present in vitro study was to investigate comparatively the proliferation and synthetic activity of osteoblasts (OB) isolated from the trabecular bone of rats previously exposed to 7-week intermittent exposure to ethanol vapor, sham-aged rats and long-term estrogen deficient rats. Cell proliferation (WST1) and synthesis of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OC), collagen I (CICP), transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alfa (TNFalpha) were measured at 3, 7 and 14 days of culture. Osteoblast proliferation rate and TGF-beta1, IL-6 and TNFalpha syntheses were significantly affected by alcohol exposure. Estrogen deficiency and alcohol consumption share many common pathophysiological mechanisms of damage to bone, but alcohol affects OB proliferation and TNFalpha synthesis significantly more than menopause does. Therefore, these in vitro data suggest that alcohol has even more deleterious effects on bone than estrogen deficiency does.

Abstract
Numerous investigations performed in animal models in the past 10 years have shown repeatedly that non-digestible oligosaccharides (NDO), such as inulin, oligofructose or transgalacto-oligosaccharides (TOS), stimulate mineral absorption, mainly calcium and magnesium. Long-term beneficial effects on bone health have been indicated by accumulation of bone mineral content in growing rats or prevention of bone loss in ovariectomized rats. However, bone mineral content or density are not necessarily associated with bone quality. In recent studies both oligofructose and calcium prevented loss of trabecular bone area induced by oestrogen deficiency, this, however, occurred at different trabecular shapes. The effects of NDO on mineral metabolism may be based on the enhancement of passive and active mineral transport across the intestinal epithelium, mediated by an increase in certain metabolites of the intestinal flora and a reduction of pH. The possible impact of short-chain fatty acids, butyrate in particular, and of polyamines on the stimulation of mineral absorption capacity, and the interaction of oligofructose and antibiotics is discussed.

Abstract
Alendronate is an aminobisphosphonate that inhibits bone resorption in osteoporotic humans and rats but does not induce osteomalacia. Several bisphosphonates, including alendronate, also have direct positive actions on osteoblasts, bone formation, and mineralization. We studied the effects of alendronate on skeletal development in adolescent male rats during chronic alcohol intake. Four groups of age- and weight-matched male Sprague-Dawley rats (35 days of age) were fed the Lieber-DeCarli diet containing 36% of calories as EtOH (E), the EtOH diet plus 60 mg/kg alendronate (EA) every other day intraperitoneally (ip), an isocaloric diet (I), or the isocaloric diet plus 60 mg/kg alendronate (IA) every other day ip. Body weight, femur length, serum levels of osteocalcin (OC), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), testosterone, and luteinizing hormone (LH); femur distal metaphyseal and middiaphyseal bone mineral density (BMD) and tibial metaphyseal gene expression for alpha-1-type I collagen (Col I), OC, and bone alkaline phosphatase (AP); and femur strength by four-point bending to failure were measured after 28 days of feeding and alendronate injections. Serum alcohol levels at death were 156 +/- 13 mg/dl (E) and 203 +/- 40 mg/dl (EA). Alendronate given to alcohol-fed rats increased metaphyseal BMD by more than 3-fold over rats fed alcohol alone. Alendronate given to isocaloric pair-fed rats increased metaphyseal BMD by more than 2.5-fold over rats fed the isocaloric diet alone. Cortical BMD was reduced by alcohol but was increased by alendronate. Alcohol consumption reduced serum IGF-1 levels, and alendronate increased IGF-1 levels in alcohol-fed rats. Serum OC, testosterone, and LH were unaffected by alcohol and alendronate. Quantitative dot blot hybridization using rat complementary DNA (cDNA) probes and normalization against 18S subunit ribosomal RNA (rRNA) levels revealed no changes in tibial metaphyseal gene expression for type I collagen, osteocalcin, or alkaline phosphatase. Alcohol significantly reduced the biomechanical properties of the femurs that were partially compensated by alendronate. Chronic alcohol consumption uncouples formation from ongoing resorption, and resorption is inhibited by alendronate. However, alendronate's positive effects on osteoblast-mediated mineralization during chronic alcohol consumption point to the potential use of bisphosphonates in the treatment of decreased bone formation secondary to alcohol-induced diminished osteoblast function.

Abstract
To investigate the role of IL-6 in alcohol-mediated osteoporosis, we measured a variety of bone remodeling parameters in wild-type (il6(+/+)) or IL-6 gene knockout (il6(-/-)) mice that were fed either control or ethanol liquid diets for 4 months. In the il6(+/+) mice, ethanol ingestion decreased bone mineral density, as determined by dual-energy densitometry; decreased cancellous bone volume and trabecular width and increased trabecular spacing and osteoclast surface, as determined by histomorphometry of the femur; increased urinary deoxypyridinolines, as determined by ELISA; and increased CFU-GM formation and osteoclastogenesis as determined ex vivo in bone marrow cell cultures. In contrast, ethanol ingestion did not alter any of these parameters in the il6(-/-) mice. Ethanol increased receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL) mRNA expression in the bone marrow of il6(+/+) but not il6(-/-) mice. Additionally, ethanol decreased several osteoblastic parameters including osteoblast perimeter and osteoblast culture calcium retention in both il6(+/+) and il6(-/-) mice. These findings demonstrate that ethanol induces bone loss through IL-6. Furthermore, they suggest that IL-6 achieves this effect by inducing RANKL and promoting CFU-GM formation and osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
In most cellular systems ethanol inhibits growth factor-induced cell growth. Here we examined the effects of ethanol on DNA synthesis and cell proliferation induced by insulin and phosphocholine (PCho) in NIH3T3 fibroblasts, Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts and mouse epidermal JB6 cells. In serum-starved low (12-18) passage NIH3T3 fibroblasts, 60 mM ethanol enhanced the mitogenic effect of insulin in the absence or presence of 25 microM zinc about 2- or 12-fold, respectively. In contrast, in serum-starved high (30-47) passage NIH3T3 cells 60 mM ethanol had large (20-40-fold) potentiating effects on insulin-induced DNA synthesis even in the absence of zinc. Furthermore, ethanol also enhanced the effects of PCho on DNA synthesis in both the absence and presence of insulin. The potentiating effects of ethanol on insulin- and PCho-induced DNA synthesis were associated with 1.2-1.3-fold stimulation of cell proliferation. Rapamycin, an inhibitor of p70 S6 kinase action, strongly inhibited the potentiating effects of ethanol on insulin- and PCho-induced mitogenesis. Unexpectedly, ethanol inhibited synergistic activation of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinases by insulin and PCho. In both Swiss 3T3 and JB6 cells, ethanol potentiated insulin-induced DNA synthesis only in the presence of zinc. In these cells, ethanol also increased the effects of PCho on both DNA synthesis and cell proliferation in the co-presence of either insulin or ATP. The results indicate that in various cell lines physiologically relevant concentrations of ethanol can increase the ability of insulin and PCho to induce DNA synthesis and, to smaller extents, cell proliferation. In low passage NIH3T3 cells as well as in Swiss 3T3 and JB6 cells potentiation of insulin-induced DNA synthesis by ethanol requires the presence of zinc.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Smooth muscle cell (SMC) hyperplasia is an important mechanism of restenosis after coronary angioplasty and the primary mechanism of restenosis within coronary stents. Ethanol has been shown to reduce the response of SMCs to local growth stimulants in vitro. This study was carried out to determine whether local delivery of ethanol solution could reduce intimal hyperplasia induced by balloon injury. METHODS AND RESULTS Three groups of juvenile domestic pigs underwent oversized balloon dilation injury of the left anterior descending and left circumflex coronary arteries. Immediately after the balloon injury, one of the arteries was randomized to local delivery of 15% ethanol with a local delivery balloon catheter, and the other received no further treatment. Histological and morphometric studies were carried out at 2 weeks in group 1 (n=16) and at 4 weeks in group 2 (n=10). In the third group (n=15), animals were killed at days 4, 8, and 14 after balloon injury, and coronary artery segments were studied by immunohistochemical staining against proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU). Histological injury scores were not different between the ethanol-treated and untreated arterial segments in either group 1 or 2. The neointimal areas were significantly smaller in the ethanol-treated arterial segments than in the untreated segments (0.25+/-0.08 versus 0.57+/-0.08 mm2, P=.004, at 2 weeks; 0.33+/-0.05 versus 0.54+/-0.07 mm2, P=.03, at 4 weeks). SMC proliferative activity was significantly lower in ethanol-treated arteries than in untreated arteries at 4 and 8 days after injury by BrdU and PCNA staining. CONCLUSIONS Local delivery of 15% ethanol solution to pig coronary arteries significantly decreased the SMC proliferative activity and neointimal formation induced by balloon dilation injury.

Abstract
The habitual consumption of even moderate quantities of alcohol (1 to 2 drinks/day) is clearly linked with reduced bone mass (osteopenia). Biochemical and histological evaluation of patients with alcoholic bone disease reveal a marked impairment in bone formation in the face of relatively normal bone resorption. Experiments using well-defined osteoblastic model systems indicate that the observed reductions in bone formation result from a direct, antiproliferative effect of ethanol on the osteoblast itself. As bone remodeling and mineralization are dependent on osteoblasts, it follows that the deleterious effect of alcohol on these cells would result in slowed bone formation, aberrant remodeling of skeletal tissue and, ultimately, osteopenia and fractures. The skeletal consequences of alcohol intake during adolescence, when the rapid skeletal growth ultimately responsible for achieving peak bone mass is occurring, may be especially harmful. The specific subcellular mechanisms whereby ethanol inhibits cell proliferation are, as yet, unknown. During the last few years, attention has shifted from nonspecific membrane perturbation effects to actions on certain signaling proteins. Specifically, there is increasing evidence that ethanol may exert significant effects on transmembrane signal transduction processes that constitute major branches of cellular control mechanisms. At present, abstinence is the only effective therapy for alcohol-induced bone disease. An improved understanding of the pathogenesis of alcohol-induced bone disease may eventually result in alternative therapeutic avenues for those who are unable to abstain.
