Half of Caucasian women and a fifth of men experience osteoporosisrelated bone fracture in the course of lifetime [1]. Treatment of osteoporosis-related fracture causes enormous socioeconomic burden, costing nearly $17 billion in 2005 in the U.S.; it is expected to double or triple in the next four decades due to rapidly aging population [2]. Osteoporosis is caused by an imbalance of osteoblastic bone formation and osteoclastic bone resorption. Thus, antiosteoporosis medications aim to reduce the risk of bone fracture either by increasing bone formation or suppressing bone resorption. Currently, four classes of anti-resorptive agents and one class of anabolic agent are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of osteoporosis (Table 1). However, these medications have failed to increase bone formation or decrease bone resorption in isolation due to the closed coupling of osteoblasts and osteoclasts whereby changes in differentiation or activity of one cell type directly affect the other [3]. This phenomenon not only limits the efficacy of anti-osteoporosis drugs, but also is associated with significant side effects [4]. In this article, we review the biological aspects of anti-osteoporosis drugs, focusing on the mechanisms of action and osteoblast–osteoclast coupling.","PeriodicalId":14180,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Oral Biology","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83352694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The avidity of antibodies against P. gingivalis present in the sera of 18 patients with mild chronic periodontitis and 18 patients with severe chronic periodontitis was evaluated using an ammonium thiocyanate-dissociated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed that the mean absorbance value in serum IgG antibody titers was significantly higher in the severe chronic periodontitis group than in the mild chronic periodontitis group (198 ± 35 ELISA unit [EU] vs. 142 ± 32 EU, p < 0.01). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in antibody avidity (65 ± 57 EU vs. 54 ± 27 EU). These findings suggest that humoral immune responses to P. gingivalis between mild and severe chronic periodontitis in elderly patients are characterized by the differences in the quantity rather than the quality of the antibodies.","PeriodicalId":14180,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Oral Biology","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83105616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
