Combining systemic anti-osteoporotic therapies with local bone augmentation techniques offers a promising strategy, but little is known about potential interactions. We hypothesized that integrating systemic treatments with local bone-strengthening biomaterials would have an additive effect on bone density and structure. This study investigated interactions and synergies between systemic therapies and injectable biomaterials, HA2 and HA2-ZOL, designed for local bone strengthening. HA2-ZOL incorporates Zoledronate, a bisphosphonate, to enhance anti-resorptive effects. These materials were tested in an in vivo rat model of osteoporosis using microCT and histology.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>Thirty-six ovariectomized Wistar rats were treated systemically with vehicle (VEH), alendronate (ALN), or parathyroid hormone (PTH). One week later, their tibiae were randomly assigned to local treatment groups: HA2, HA2-ZOL, or NaCl control. Bilateral injections targeted metaphyseal trabecular bone, with microCT scans tracking changes over 8 weeks. Regions of interest (ROIs) were identified and analyzed for bone volume fraction (BV/TV), tissue mineral density (TMD), and trabecular morphology. Histological analyses were performed at week 8 to assess bone structure and mineral inclusions.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>VEH animals with NaCl injections experienced marked bone loss, partially mitigated by ALN and PTH. HA2 injections increased BV/TV by factors of 2.5 to 3.4 across treatments compared to baseline, with effects confined to the injected material. HA2-ZOL amplified this response, with BV/TV increases up to 4.8-fold, particularly in VEH and PTH animals. The effects peaked at 2–4 weeks post-injection, followed by remodeling and restoration. Both local treatments increased trabecular thickness, with HA2-ZOL showing slower post-peak resorption.</div></div><div><h3>Discussion</h3><div>HA2 injections significantly densified bone, independent of systemic therapy. Zoledronate in HA2-ZOL enhanced bone formation and delayed resorption in control and PTH animals, but offered no additional benefit when combined with systemic bisphosphonate. These findings support the hypothesis of an additive effect, suggesting that injectable hydrogels with localized drug delivery can complement systemic therapies by rapidly increasing local bone density, thereby potentially preventing fractures in high-risk osteoporotic patients.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9301,"journal":{"name":"Bone","volume":"192 ","pages":"Article 117373"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142831256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Limited accuracy of standard bone mineral density (BMD) for fracture risk assessment, combined with low adherence to bone health screening precludes identification of those at risk of fracture. Because of the wide availability of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) imaging, bone screening using a DBT scanner at the time of breast screening has been proposed. Earlier studies have shown that BMD, microstructure, and stiffness of the distal radius can be calculated using digital tomosynthesis imaging of the wrist (DWT). However, strength and stress/strain parameters, which are more relevant to structural failure, and have the potential to enhance the utility of DWT, were not examined previously. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the ability of DWT to discriminate patients with and without fragility fracture using DWT based finite element (DWT-FE) derived strength and stress/strain distribution properties, and to determine in vivo repeatability of these biomechanical properties.</div><div>Twenty-two postmenopausal women with any fragility fracture (included spine, hip, distal radius, humerus and tibia fractures) and 68 without were recruited.
