[PMID: 38840731 PMCID: PMC11150975 DOI: 10.1016/j.reth.2024.03.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent degenerative joint disease worldwide. Effective management for early-stage OA is crucial. Denosumab (DS) has been widely used to treat osteoporosis (OP) and rheumatoid arthritis, but its potential for managing OA remains clear. We assessed the effects of DS on osteoclast activity and chondrocyte apoptosis using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) assay, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), flow cytometry, and TUNEL staining. To assess the impact of DS on the NF-κB pathway, we performed Western blot and immunofluorescence staining. Additionally, we used an OA model to explore the influence of DS on subchondral bone remodeling and cartilage degeneration in vivo. We found that DS hindered receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting the activity of the NF-κB pathway. Besides, DS alleviated reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced apoptosis in chondrocytes by regulating the expression of genes related to apoptosis. Moreover, we observed an attenuation of OA-related subchondral bone remodeling and cartilage degeneration in vivo. Our findings indicate that DS could effectively suppress osteoclast activity and chondrocyte apoptosis, thereby mitigating OA-related subchondral bone remodeling and cartilage degeneration. These results provide a mechanistic basis for using DS to treat OA.

Zoledronate Increases Bone Mineral Density in Nonambulant Children With Cerebral Palsy: A Randomized Controlled Trial. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2023; 108:2840-2851. [PMID: 37235798 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgad299] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Zoledronate appears to reduce fracture rates in children with cerebral palsy (CP), but no previous randomized, controlled trial has been performed to compare the effect of zoledronate to placebo in children with CP. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of zoledronate on bone mineral density (BMD) Z-scores in children with nonambulant CP in a randomized, controlled, double-blind trial. METHODS Nonambulant children with CP (5 to 16 years of age) were randomized 1:1 to receive 2 doses of zoledronate or placebo at a 6-month interval. BMD Z-score changes at the lumbar spine and the lateral distal femur (LDF) were calculated from dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scans. Monitoring included weight, bone age, pubertal staging, knee-heel length, adverse events, biochemical markers, and questionnaires. RESULTS Twenty-four participants were randomized and all completed the study. Fourteen were assigned to zoledronate. The mean lumbar spine BMD Z-score increased 0.8 SD (95% CI: 0.4; 1.2) in the zoledronate group, which was significant when compared to 0.0 SD (95% CI: -0.3; 0.3) in the placebo group. Similarly, the LDF BMD Z-scores increased more in the zoledronate group. Severe acute phase symptoms affected 50% of the patients in the zoledronate group but were reported exclusively after the first dose. Growth parameters were similar in both groups. CONCLUSION Zoledronate for 12 months increased BMD Z-scores significantly without affecting growth, but first-dose side effects were common and considerable. Studies into lower first doses and long-term outcomes are needed.

Abstract
Zoledronic acid, a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate drug, is used for the treatment of osteoporosis, Paget's disease of bone, and tumor-induced osteolysis. Zoledronic acid has also gained a place in cancer treatment due to its cytotoxic and antiproliferative effects in many cancer cells. Although zoledronic acid is considered safe, kidney damage is still one of the concerns in therapeutic doses. In the study, the aim was to assess the nephrotoxic profiles of zoledronic acid in the human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cells. Cytotoxicity evaluation was performed by 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and neutral red uptake tests, while oxidative stress was performed by reactive oxygen species (ROS) production via flow cytometry, and the incomprehensible evaluation of ROS-related genes by RT-PCR and apoptosis was performed with Annexin-PI analysis in flow cytometry. The obtained result showed that zoledronic acid inhibited cell viability (IC50 values were determined as 273.16 by MTT) and cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner, induced ROS production, caused glutathione depletion, and increased oxidative stress index and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, indicating severe cellular stress. The expression levels of oxidative damage (L-fabp, α-GST, Nrf2, and HMOX1), ER stress (CASP4, IRE1-α, GADD153, and GRP78), and apoptosis (Bcl-2, Bax, Cyt-c, p53, CASP9, CASP3, NF-κB, TNF-α, and JNK) related genes were altered as well as IRE1-α protein levels. Herein, we were the first to show that increased oxidative stress and ER stress resulting in apoptosis are the key molecular pathways in zoledronic acid-induced nephrotoxicity equivalent to clinically administered concentrations.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of zoledronic acid in the treatment of senile osteoporosis. Methods: One hundred and six cases of senile osteoporosis who visited to our hospital from August 2017 to December 2018 for treatment were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group. The control group was treated with conventional therapy, while the observation group was treated with zoledronic acid in addition to the treatment of the control group. Bone mineral density, pain degree, therapeutic effect and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared. Results: The total effective rate of the observation group was 96.67%, higher than 80.00% of the control group (P<0.05); the bone mineral density of lumbar vertebrae, femoral neck and Ward’ area in the two groups increased after 6 months of treatment, and the bone mineral density of the observation group increased more than that of the control group (P<0.05); the pain degree of the observation group was lower than that of the control group after 6 months of treatment, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: Zoledronic acid is helpful to alleviate clinical symptoms, reduce the degree of bone pain, and promote the increase of bone mass, and has high safety in the treatment of senile osteoporosis, which is worth promotion.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to estimate the cost-effectiveness of yearly intravenous zoledronic acid treatment versus weekly oral alendronate for postmenopausal osteoporotic women in China. Methods We used a Markov microsimulation model to compare the cost-effectiveness of zoledronic acid with alendronate in Chinese postmenopausal osteoporotic women with no fracture history at various ages of therapy initiation from health care payer perspective. Results The incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) for the zoledronic acid versus alendronate were $23,581/QALY at age 65 years, $17,367/QALY at age 70 years, $14,714/QALY at age 75 years, and $12,169/QALY at age 80 years, respectively. In deterministic sensitivity analyses, the study demonstrated that the two most impactful parameters were the annual cost of zoledronic acid and the relative risk of hip fracture with zoledronic acid. In probabilistic sensitivity analyses, the probabilities of zoledronic acid being cost-effective compared with alendronate were 70–100% at a willingness-to-pay of $29,340 per QALY. Conclusions Among postmenopausal osteoporotic women in China, zoledronic acid therapy is cost-effective at all ages examined from health care payer perspective, compared with weekly oral alendronate. In addition, alendronate treatment is shown to be dominant for patients at ages 65 and 70 with full persistence. This study will help clinicians and policymakers make better decisions about the relative economic value of osteoporosis treatments in China.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the clinical effect of zoledronic acid (ZA) in patients with cervical spondylosis and osteoporosis after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) surgery. METHODS All selected patients were divided into the study group and the control group according to the sequence of surgery time. In the study group, 5 mg (100 ml) of ZA was applied intravenously as intervention on the 5 day after ACDF surgery. Patients were followed up regularly after surgery. RESULTS Forty-three cases completed the follow-ups (21/22), the neck disability index (NDI) score significantly decreased at the 3rd month after surgery in both groups, it came to a plateau at the 6th month after surgery, and it had some rise at the 12th month after surgery, but the NDI score was lower in the study group at the 12th month after surgery ( p < 0.05). C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) and amino terminal propeptide of type I procollagen of bone turnover markers in the study group showed a downward trend after surgery, among which CTX decreased significantly and no significant changes in the control group. At the 12th month after surgery, the bone mineral density of lumbar spine area in the study group was significantly improved ( p < 0.05). During the 3rd and the 6th month follow-up after surgery, 1/2 osteogenesis rate of the study group was significantly higher ( p < 0.05). However, all patients in the two groups obtained stable fusion at the 12th month follow-up after surgery. CONCLUSIONS For patients with cervical spondylosis and osteoporosis, intravenous application of ZA after ACDF surgery can shorten the time of cervical osteogenesis, promote local bone graft fusion, and improve the postoperative clinical effect to some extent.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Zoledronic acid (ZOL) has a suppressive effect on marrow adiposity in ovariectomized rats. Currently, however, data on the effect of ZOL on marrow fat in humans are unavailable. The purpose of this work was to determine the in vivo effect of ZOL on bone remodeling and marrow adipogenesis in postmenopausal osteoporosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a 12-month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we studied 100 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who were randomly given either a single dose of intravenous infusion of ZOL (5 mg) or placebo. All subjects received adequate dietary calcium and vitamin D3. Main outcome measures included bone mineral density by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, vertebral marrow fat content by proton MR spectroscopy, serum markers of bone turnover by biochemical analysis. RESULTS Ninety percent of the participants completed the 12-month follow-up. With respect to baselines, marrow fat content reduced by 8.1% in the ZOL-treated women and increased by 3.0% in the controls (all p < 0.05). In addition, there were significant increases of bone mineral density by 2.8, 2.0, and 1.7% in the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total hip, respectively, in the ZOL group compared with the placebo group. Serum levels of bone resorption marker CTX and bone formation marker BALP decreased by 33 and 18% in postmenopausal women receiving ZOL. CONCLUSIONS In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, a single dose of ZOL therapy significantly reduced marrow adiposity. MR spectroscopy of vertebral marrow fat may therefore serve as a novel tool for BMD-independent efficacy assessment.

Abstract
To evaluate the effect of zoledronic acid (ZA) on spinal fusion in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. Female SD rats (n = 50) were OVX or sham-operated and randomized into five groups: Sham, OVX control, ZOL-20 (20 µg/kg), ZOL-100 (100 µg/kg), and ZOL-500 (500 µg/kg). Eight weeks after OVX, bilateral lumbar spinal fusion was performed using autologous iliac bone with ZA or saline according to the grouping. The lumbar spines were harvested at 8 weeks and subjected to radiographic, manual palpation, micro-computed tomographic (micro-CT), and histological analysis. The manual palpation result differed significantly only between the ZOL-500 (fused: partially fused: not fused, 9:0:0) and OVX control (4:2:3) (p < 0.05). The radiographic scales were also differed significantly only between these two groups. According to the micro-CT results, the bone volume fraction (BV/TV) were significantly higher in all ZA-treated groups (54.2%, 65.9%, and 73.6%) than OVX control (43.7%) (p < 0.01). At clinical dose or lower, ZA didn't alter the spinal fusion, but a higher dose increased the spinal fusion rate significantly. This study suggests ZA may have a positive effect on spinal fusion in the presence of osteoporosis, and spinal fusion surgery outcome is not likely to be altered by ZA at clinical dose.

Abstract
Salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma is an epithelial tumor in the head and neck region. Despite its slow growth, patients with salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma exhibit poor long term survival because of a high rate of distant metastasis. Lung and bone are common distant metastasis sites. Zoledronic acid, a third generation bisphosphonate, has been used for tumor-induced osteolysis due to bone metastasis and has direct antitumor activity in several human neoplasms. Here, we observed that zoledronic acid inhibited salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma cell line SACC-83 xenograft tumor growth in nude mice. In vitro, zoledronic acid induced apoptosis and reduced clonogenic survival in SACC-83. Flow cytometry and western blotting indicated that the cell cycle was arrested at G0/G1. Zoledronic acid treatment upregulated reactive oxygen species as well as the autophagy marker protein LC-3B. Reactive oxygen species scavenger N-acetylcysteine and autophagy antagonist 3-methyladenine decreased zoledronic acid-induced apoptosis and increased clonogenic survival. Silencing of the autophagy related gene Beclin-1 also decreased zoledronic acid-induced apoptosis and inhibition of clonogenic formation. In addition, isobolographic analysis revealed synergistic effects on apoptosis when zoledronic acid and paclitaxel/cisplatin were combined. Taken together, our results suggest that zoledronic acid induced apoptosis and reduced clonogenic survival via upregulation of reactive oxygen species and autophagy in the SACC-83 cell line. Thus, zoledronic acid should be considered a promising drug for the treatment of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Local bone erosions and osteoporosis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are the result of a more pronounced bone resorption than bone formation. Present treatment strategies for RA inhibit inflammation, but do not directly target bone erosions. The aim of the study was in experimental arthritis to investigate the juxtaarticular and systemic effects of simultaneous osteoclast inhibition with zoledronate (ZLN) and osteoblast stimulation with parathyroid hormone (PTH). METHODS Arthritis was induced in 36 SKG mice. The mice were randomized to three treatment groups and an untreated group: ZLN, PTH, PTH+ZLN, and untreated. Arthritis score and ankle width measurements were performed. Histological sections were cut from the right hind paw, and design-based stereological estimators were used to quantify histological variables of bone volume and bone formation and resorption. The femora were DXA- and μCT-scanned, and the bone strength was determined at the femoral neck and mid-diaphysis. RESULTS Locally, we found no differences in arthritis score or ankle width throughout the study. Similarly, none of the treatments inhibited bone erosions or stimulated bone formation in the paw. Systemically, all treatments improved bone mineral density, strength of the femoral neck and mid-diaphysis, and μCT parameters of both cortical and trabecular bone. In addition, there was an additive effect of combination treatment compared with single treatments for most trabecular parameters including bone mineral density and bone volume fraction. CONCLUSIONS No local effect on bone was found by the combined action of inhibiting bone resorption and stimulating bone formation. However, a clear systemic effect of the combination treatment was demonstrated.

The relation between zoledronic acid infusion and interbody fusion in patients undergoing transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion surgery. Acta Neurochir (Wien) 2012; 154:731-8. [PMID: 22297398 DOI: 10.1007/s00701-012-1283-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2011] [Accepted: 01/12/2012] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Zoledronic acid (ZOL) has been shown to significantly increase bone mineral density and to decrease the incidence of osteoporotic fractures. However, its safety when used after lumbar interbody fusion surgery remains unclear. We sought to determine whether ZOL infusion 3 days after transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) affects the risk of nonunion. METHODS This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving subjects who underwent TLIF surgery. Eighty-two subjects (≥50 years of age) were randomly assigned to receive either 5 mg intravenous ZOL (N=41) or placebo (N=41) 3 days after surgery. Each patient received a lumbar computed tomography scan 6 months and 12 months postoperatively. We evaluated interbody fusion using the multiplanar reconstruction technique. Clinical outcome was evaluated with the Oswestry Disability Index. Bone turnover markers (amino terminal propeptides of type I collagen and C-telopeptide of type I collagen) were measured to investigate the biological effects of ZOL on spinal fusion. RESULTS In the ZOL group, 7 levels (11.5%) exhibited non-union; in the placebo group, 9 levels (14.5%) exhibited nonunion at 12 months postoperatively. This difference was not statistically significant (P=0.82). The difference in ODI scores between two groups was not statistically significant at any of the follow-up times. However, ZOL decreased bone turnover markers significantly. CONCLUSIONS There was no association between ZOL treatment and nonunion of the lumbar spinal bone. Thus, undergoing lumbar interbody fusion surgery is not a valid reason to suspend or avoid treatment with ZOL.

[PMID: 22036912 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2011.10.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2011] [Revised: 10/04/2011] [Accepted: 10/06/2011] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
We investigated the therapeutic effect of topical Risedronate (RIS) on a mouse model of estrogen-deficient osteoporosis. Fourteen-week-old female mice were ovariectomized and assigned to 4 groups: SHAM-operated (SHAM), OVX mice treated with vehicle (OVX-V), OVX mice treated with 0.2% RIS (OVX-0.2% RIS), and OVX-mice treated with 0.02% RIS (OVX-0.02% RIS). Topical samples containing RIS were prepared in 10% (w/w) polyethylene glycol (PEG, MW 400) and 80 μg of sample was spread on the mice's mid-backs every 3 days for 5 weeks. Micro-CT analysis of femora demonstrated that OVX-0.2% RIS exhibited a 29% greater bone mineral density and 24% greater bone volume fraction than that of OVX-V group. Investigation of the trabecular bone in OVX-0.2% RIS revealed a 24% higher bone volume (BV/TV), 51% higher trabecular number (Tb.N), and 40% lower trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) compared to OVX-V mice. Additionally, bone phenotypes of tibiae were further confirmed by histological analysis. OVX-0.2% RIS group exhibited a 494% greater BV/TV, 464% less Tb.Sp, 81% greater active osteoclast surface (Oc.S/BS) and 26% less osteoclast number (N.Oc/BS) than that of OVX-V group. Collectively, these results indicated that topical delivery of RIS has powerful pharmaceutical effects on the prevention of osteoporosis and bone turnover.
