Black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) and estrogen positively influence osteoporotic bone. Both substances may improve fracture healing in early osteoporosis as well. In 48 twelve-week-old ovariectomized or, respectively, sham-operated (SHAM) rats, a standardized metaphyseal tibia osteotomy with bridging T-plate fixation was performed. During the healing process of 35 days, rats received soy-free (SHAM, osteopenic C), estrogen-(E) or Cimicifuga racemosa-(CR) supplemented diets. After sacrifice, the callus formation was analyzed with regard to biomechanical quality, morphology, quantity, time course of new bone built and gene expression. CR induced a high rate of metaphyseal callus formation. The biomechanical properties and the amount of new callus formation indicated that fracture healing was still in progress. Therefore, gene expression of osteoblasts was comparatively high. Body weight and the trabecular structure were influenced little by CR. Estrogen improved the biomechanical properties of the callus. Resistance to microfracturing was significantly enhanced in the E group and even superior to SHAM. Remodeling of the callus formation had already begun. The trabecular network and the typical endosteal fracture healing were especially improved. Osteoporotic metaphyseal fracture healing was improved by estrogen more than by Cimicifuga racemosa. The process of fracture healing occurred nearly physiologically. The generation of callus formation was supported by Cimicifuga racemosa as well, but the five-week duration of application was too short for Cimicifuga racemosa to show its complete potential. Already-initiated Cimicifuga racemosa therapy for menopausal symptoms could be continued during fracture healing without hesitation."],["dc.description.sponsorship","DFG [STU 478/2-1]"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1055/s-0029-1240798"],["dc.identifier.isi","000279668400002"],["dc.identifier.pmid","20104444"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/19846"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Georg Thieme Verlag Kg"],["dc.relation.issn","0032-0943"],["dc.title","Effects of Black Cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) and Estrogen on Metaphyseal Fracture Healing in the Early Stage of Osteoporosis in Ovariectomized Rats"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

While they have demonstrated some positive effects on bone healing, more progress is needed in this area. This study used the well-known osteoporotic agents estrogen (E) and raloxifene (R) in conjunction with biomechanical whole body vibration (WBV) at a frequency of 70 Hz twice daily for six weeks to stimulate bone healing. Eighty-four 3-month old female Sprague-Dawley rats (12 per group) were bilaterally ovariectomized to develop osteopenia within eight weeks. Osteotomy of the metaphyseal tibiae was performed and fracture healing was then studied using mechanical tests, histomorphometry, computed tomography (mu CT), and gene analysis. We found that E and R improved the structure of osteopenic bones as did WBV alone, although significant levels for WBV were seldom reached. Combination treatments significantly enhanced stiffness (R + WBV; p < 0.05), endosteal bone (R + WBV; p < 0.01), and trabecular density (E + WBV; p < 0.05, R + WBV; p < 0.05). In addition, the expression of osteoclast-specific Trap was significantly reduced after treatment with E, R, or their combination with WBV (p < 0.01). The effects were additive and not inhibitory, leading us to conclude that the combined applications of WBV with E or R may improve the healing of osteopenic bones. The therapies studied are all currently approved for human use, suggesting ready applicability to clinical practice. To better understand the effects of WBV on osteopenic bones, the ideal vibration regime will require further study. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc.

To achieve standardized and defined study conditions, various variables must be carefully controlled when designing fracture healing experiments in mice or rats. The strain, age and sex of the animals may influence the process of fracture healing. Furthermore, the choice of the fracture fixation technique depends on the questions addressed, whereby intra- and extramedullary implants as well as open and closed surgical approaches may be considered. During the last few years, a variety of different, highly sophisticated implants for fracture fixation in small animals have been developed. Rigid fixation with locking plates or external fixators results in predominantly intramembranous healing in both mice and rats. Locking plates, external fixators, intramedullary screws, the locking nail and the pin-clip device allow different degrees of stability resulting in various amounts of endochondral and intramembranous healing. The use of common pins that do not provide rotational and axial stability during fracture stabilization should be discouraged in the future. Analyses should include at least biomechanical and histological evaluations, even if the focus of the study is directed towards the elucidation of molecular mechanisms of fracture healing using the largely available spectrum of antibodies and gene-targeted animals to study molecular mechanisms of fracture healing.

Here we aimed to investigate the short-term effects of genistein and equol on the proximal femur of ovariectomized (OVX) rats. Forty-eight, 3-month-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were ovarectomized; after eight weeks the bilateral osteotomy and osteosynthesis (OS) of their tibiae was performed and the rats were randomly divided into the following four groups: OVX control group (C), treated with estradiol-17beta (E2) -benzoate (E; daily intake 0.086 mg/d per animal), genistein (GEN; daily intake 12.7 mg/d per animal) and equol (EQ; daily intake 4.65 mg/d per animal). At 5 weeks postoperatively (OS), the breaking test was performed on the trochanteric region of femur. Additionally, histomorphometric assessment, and trabecular and cortical bone microstructure analyses were performed. The relative gain of body weight (BW) in the EQ (24%) group was significantly (p < 0.05) lower than in the C (33%) and GEN (30%) groups.

However, the vibration protocols differed among studies, and the major factor influencing the outcomes is unclear. The intention of the present study was to evaluate the effect of WBV—vertical (v) or horizontal (h) and of different frequencies and application regimes (1 × or 2 ×/d)—on lumbar spine properties in ovariectomized rats (Ovx). Three experiments were conducted. Thirteen-week old female Sprague–Dawley rats were Ovx or left intact (Non-Ovx). After eight weeks, all of the rats underwent metaphyseal osteotomy of the tibiae. Five days later, the rats were divided into six groups (n = 15): 1) intact, 2) Ovx, and 3–6) Ovx exposed to WBV. In Experiment 1, groups 3–6 underwent 35 Hz-v, 50 Hz-v, 70 Hz-v, and 90 Hz-v, respectively. In Experiment 2, groups 3–6 underwent 30 Hz-h, 50 Hz-h, 70 Hz-h, and 90 Hz-h, respectively. In Experiment 3, groups 3–6 underwent 35 Hz-v, 70 Hz-v, 35 Hz-h, and 70 Hz-h, respectively. Vibration exposure was 15 min 1 ×/d in Experiment 1 and 2 and 2 ×/d in Experiment 3 for up to 30 days. Vertebral bodies were used in micro-computed tomography, biomechanical, ashing, and gene expression analyses. Vertical vibrations applied once a day favorably affected bone volume fraction (BV/TV) and Ca2 +/PO43 − and decreased Rankl gene expression. When applied twice a day, v-vibrations diminished mineral content. Horizontal vibrations (1 ×/d) reduced Ca2 +/PO43 − ratio and Opg mRNA level, whereas h-vibration (2 ×/d) normalized OC serum levels. Many of the other measured parameters did not reveal any significant differences between the vibrated groups and the untreated Ovx group. The effect of ovariectomy was confirmed by atrophied uterus, impaired biomechanical properties, and bone mineral density and BV/TV of the vertebral body. The findings of the present study indicate that application frequency rate and direction of vibration might influence spine response differently.

In this study, the osteoprotective effects of genistein (GEN) and equol (EQO) were evaluated. After ovariectomy, 44 rats received soy-free food (Control, C) and developed substantial osteoporosis over the course of two months. After that period, the rats were divided into different groups and fed estradiol (E), GEN or EQO for 35 days. To analyze the osteoprotective effects of the tested substances, bone biomechanical properties and histomorphometric changes of the lumbar vertebrae were evaluated. In analyzing the vertebral body compression strength, we found that the EQO (103.8%) and GEN (96.8%) groups reached similar levels relative to the E group, while the C group reached 77.7% of the biomechanical properties of the E group. EQO was significantly superior to C. The histomorphometric evaluation demonstrated an increased number of nodes in EQO- and E-treated rats compared to GEN- and C-treated rats. E led to an improvement of cortical as well as trabecular bone, an advantage that was only partly seen in the other groups. Treatment with phytoestrogens induced improved bone quality. EQO and GEN might be alternatives for hormone replacement therapy, although further studies are needed to elucidate possible side effects.
