The aim of this study was to provide helpful information for use in selection of an appropriate medication after osteoporotic fractures through conduct of a literature review. In addition, a review of the recommendations of several societies for prevention of subsequent fractures was performed and the appropriate choice of medication for treatment of atypical femur fractures was examined. Clinical perspective was obtained and an updated search of literature was conducted across PubMed and MEDLINE and relevant articles were selected. The articles were selected manually according to relevance, and the references for identified articles and reviews were also evaluated for relevance. The following areas are reviewed: Commonly prescribed osteoporosis medications: BPs (bisphosphonates), denosumab, and SERMs (selective estrogen receptor modulators) in antiresorptive medications and recombinant human parathyroid hormone teriparatide, recently approved Romosuzumab in anabolic agents, clinical practice guidelines for the management of osteoporosis, osteoporotic fracture, and atypical femur fracture. Most medications for treatment of osteoporosis do not delay fracture healing and the positive effect of teriparatide on fracture healing has been confirmed. In cases where an osteoporotic fracture is diagnosed, risk assessment should be performed for selection of very high-risk patients in order to prevent subsequent fractures, and administration of anabolic agents is recommended.

골다공증이란 골량의 감소에 의해 야기되며. 해면골 미세구조의 골밀도가 감소하는 질병이다. 약물치료(부갑상선 호르몬)법은 골소주의 두께 및 골의 강도를 어느 정도 증가시킬 수 있는 호르몬 치료법이다. 척추성형술은 골다공성 척추 압박 골절의 치료를 위하여 척추 해면골에 주사기를 통하여 골 시멘트를 주입하는 최소 침습적 수술법이다. 임상적으로 골 시멘트의 물성치에 영향을 미치더라도 점성 감소와 주입 시간 확보를 위해 중합비율을 변경하여 사용한다. 본 연구의 목적은 골 시멘트 중합비율 변경에 따른 척추 해면골의 역학적 특성을 알아보고자 한다. 본 논문에서 는 수정된 보로노이 도형을 이용하여 척추 해면골의 유한요소 모델을 생성하고, 골 시멘트의 중합비율(0.40~l.07$m\ell$/g)에 따른 척추 해면골의 강도회복 정도를 비교하였다. 또한 골다공증 치료에서 호르몬 치료와 골 시멘트 치료의 상대적인 영향을 비교 분석하였다. 분석결과 골 시멘트 치료모델의 탄성계수와 강도는 정상 상태의 약 50%로 회복되었으며, 이 값은 호르몬 치료 모델의 약 2배이다. 0.53$m\ell$/g의 중합비율에서 골 시멘트의 탄성계수와 강도가 최고이며 1.07$m\ell$/g의 중합비율에서 최소의 탄성계수와 강도(각각 42%와 49%)이지만 약물 치료보다는 더 효과적임을 알 수 있다. 척추성형술시 제작사에서 추천하는 중합비율과 다른 비율을 사용할 경우 골 시멘트의 물성치 감소뿐만 아니라 환자의 골 밀도에 따라서 해면골의 강도회복에 문제가 발생할 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

연구배경: 악성 종양 환자에서 PTHrp가 고칼슘혈증을 유발시킬 수 있음이 밝혀졌으며, 악성 종양 특히 편평상피세포 폐암에서 골 전이 없이 고칼슘혈증이 종종 관찰되므로 PTHrp가 암의 진행정도 및 예후와 관련이 있을 가능성이 있다. 정상 칼슘혈증인 폐암환자에서도 혈중 PTHrp를 측정하는 예민한 검사법을 이용하면 편평상피 폐암의 조기진단, 치료반응의 추적, 재발의 발견등에 도움을 받을 가능성이 있다. 방법: 조직학적으로 진단된 폐암 환자군 및 대조군의 혈중 PTHrp를 방사면역학 검사로 측정하여 폐암환자에서 각 세포형, 병기, 골 전이 유무에 따른 PTHrp의 혈중치와 혈청 칼슘 및 인, 24시간 요중 칼슘 및 인의 배설량과의 관계를 조사하였다. 결과: 혈청 PTHrp(평균$\pm$S.E.)는 대조군(n=22) $158{\pm}38.2pg/ml$, 전체 폐암군(n=63) $312{\pm}68.9pg/ml$으로 폐암군에서 높은 경향이지만 유의한 차이는 없었다. 각 세포형에 따라서는 편평상피세포암군(n=34) $356{\pm}103.9pg/ml$, 선암군(n=15) $281{\pm}148.7pg/ml$, 소세포암군(n=9) $316{\pm}140.8pg/ml$, 대세포암(n=1) 65.0pg/ml, 미분화 미분류 세포암군(n=4) $114{\pm}77.9pg/ml$로 편평상피세포암군에서 높은 경향이나 각 군 및 대조군 간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 편평상피암의 병기에 따른 혈청 PTHrp(평균$\pm$S.E.)는 제 I병기(n=1) 143pg/ml, 제 II병기(n=3) $570{\pm}472.3pg/ml$, 제 IIIa 병기(n=9) $166{\pm}22.4pg/ml$, 제 IIIb 병기(n=12) $282{\pm}113.3pg/ml$, 제 IV 병기(n=9) $668{\pm}367.9pg/ml$로 제 II 병기와 제 IV 병기에서 대조군에 비해 유의하게 높았다(p<0.05). 골 전이가 있는 편평상피암(n=8)의 경우 혈청 PTHrp $1526{\pm}811.2\;pg/ml$로 대조군에 비해 유의하게 높았으나(p<0.0005), 골 전이가 없는 군은 대조군과 차이가 없었고, 혈청 및 24 시간 뇨중 calcium, phosphorus의 차이도 관찰되지 않았다. 고칼슘혈증은 편평상피암 1예에서 관찰되었으며, 이 예에서 PTHrp는 244pg/ml로 높지 않았다. 대조군, 폐암군, 폐암의 세포형 및 폐암의 병기에 따른 군간에 혈청 calcium, phosphorus, 24시간 뇨중 calcium, phosphorus에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론: 혈중 PTH게는 대조군에서도 상당량 검출이 되며, 정상 칼슘혈증인 폐암환자에서 다수 검출되고, PTHrp가 높아도 고칼슘혈증이 동반되지 않는 등 PTHrp로 종양의 체액성 고칼슘혈증 기전을 모두 설명할 수는 없으며, 폐암 조기발견의 표지자, 병기 및 예후 예측 인자로는 PTHrp 1-34 측정이 부적합하다고 판단 되지만 골 전이가 있는 진행된 예에서 증가하는 경향이므로 병기와 예후 예측인자, 치료 반응 및 재발 등에서의 응용 가능성에 대하여 적극적으로 검토할 가치가 있다. 앞으로 고캄슘혈증 환자에서 보다 많은 예를 시행하고 특이성이 높은 검사법을 개발하는 등의 추후 연구도 필요하다.

A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) imaging system was constructed and used to detect the hexahistidine-ubiquitin-tagged human parathyroid hormone fragment (His$\sub$6/-Ub-hPTHF(1-34)) expressed in Escherichia coli. The hexahistidine-specific antibody was immobilized on a thin gold film coated with ProLinker$\^$TM/ B, a novel calixcrown derivative with a bifunctional coupling property that permits efficient immobilizaton of capture proteins on solid matrices. The soluble and insoluble fractions of an E. coli cell lysate were spotted onto the antibody-coated gold chip, which was then washed with buffer (pH 7.4) solution and dried. SPR imaging measurements were carried out to detect the expressed His$\sub$6/-Ub-hPTHF(1-34). There was no discernible protein image in the uninduced cell lysate, indicating that non-specific binding of contaminant proteins did not occur on the gold chip surface. It is expected that the approach used here to detect affinity-tagged recombinant proteins using an SPR imaging technique could be used as a powerful tool for the analyses of a number of proteins in a high-throughput mode.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether increasing the Ti6Al4V surface oxide negative charge through heat ($600^{\circ}C$) or radiofrequency plasma glow discharge (RFGD) pretreatment, with or without a subsequent coating with fibronectin, stimulated osteoblast gene marker expression in the MC3T3 osteoprogenitor cell line. Methods: Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to measure changes over time in the mRNA levels for osteoblast gene markers, including alkaline phosphatase, bone sialoprotein, collagen type I (${\alpha}1$), osteocalcin, osteopontin and parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTH-rP), and the osteoblast precursor genes Runx2 and osterix. Results: Osteoprogenitors began to differentiate earlier on disks that were pretreated with heat or RFGD. The pretreatments increased gene marker expression in the absence of a fibronectin coating. However, pretreatments increased osteoblast gene expression for fibronectin-coated disks more than uncoated disks, suggesting a surface oxide-mediated specific enhancement of fibronectin's bioactivity. Heat pretreatment had greater effects on the mRNA expression of genes for PTH-rP, alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin while RFGD pretreatment had greater effects on osteopontin and bone sialoprotein gene expression. Conclusions: The results suggest that heat and RFGD pretreatments of the Ti6Al4V surface oxide stimulated osteoblast differentiation through an enhancement of (a) coated fibronectin's bioactivity and (b) the bioactivities of other serum or matrix proteins. The quantitative differences in the effects of the two pretreatments on osteoblast gene marker expression may have arisen from the unique physico-chemical characteristics of each resultant oxide surface. Therefore, engineering the Ti6Al4V surface oxide to become more negatively charged can be used to accelerate osteoblast differentiation through fibronectin-dependent and independent mechanisms.

Pseudohypoparathyroidism type Ia (PHP Ia) is a disorder characterized by multiform hormonal resistance including parathyroid hormone (PTH) resistance and Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO). It is caused by heterozygous inactivating mutations within the Gs alpha-encoding GNAS exons. A 9-year-old boy presented with clinical and laboratory abnormalities including hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, PTH resistance, multihormone resistance and AHO (round face, short stature, obesity, brachydactyly and osteoma cutis) which were typical of PHP Ia. He had a history of repeated convulsive episodes that started from the age of 2 months. A cranial computed tomography scan showed bilateral calcifications in the basal ganglia and his intelligence quotient testing indicated mild mental retardation. Family history revealed that the patient's maternal relatives, including his grandmother and 2 of his mother's siblings, had features suggestive of AHO. Sequencing of the GNAS gene of the patient identified a heterozygous nonsense mutation within exon 11 (c.637 C>T). The C>T transversion results in an amino acid substitution from Gln to stop codon at codon 213 ($p.Gln213^*$). To our knowledge, this is a novel mutation in GNAS.

Osteoporosis is a major health problem that can lead to mortality. This study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis separately and to assess the risk factors associated with osteopenia/osteoporosis in Korean men aged 50 years and over. A total of 1,136 subjects were analyzed among the participants of the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) 2010~2011 by using SPSS statistics complex samples (windows ver. 23.0). The prevalence rates of osteopenia and osteoporosis were 46.3% and 7.3%, respectively, and the mean ages of both osteopenia and osteoporosis risk groups were significantly higher than that of the normal group. The mean values for lifetime tallest height and bone mineral density in whole body, total femur, femoral neck, and lumbar spine were significantly lower in the risk group(osteopenia/osteoporosis) than in the normal group, whereas the mean values for height, body weight, BMI, waist circumference, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides of the two groups showed no significant differences. The intakes of energy and carbohydrates were significantly higher in the risk group than in the normal group. The results of multiple logistic regression showed that being underweight and having hypercholesterolemia were significantly related with the prevalence of osteopenia/osteoporosis, whereas health habits such as smoking and exercise, chronic diseases such as obesity and hypertension, and nutrient intakes were not. These findings suggest the need for further studies to examine osteopenia/osteoporosis risk factors and outcomes specificly focused on Korean men.

This study was designed to investigate the peri-implant tissue reaction in ovariectomized osteoporotic female rats, and to evaluate effects of estrogen, calcitonin, parathyroid hormone on the bone - implant interface in osteoporotic rats. 120 Sprague - Dawley rats were used in this experiments. Osteoporosis was induced by bilateral ovariectomy. They were divided 5 groups : sham-operated control group(Sham), ovariectomized group (OVX), OVX and estrogen treated group (OVX+E), OVX and PTH treated group (OVX+PTH), and OVX and calcitonin treated group (OVX+CT). Eight weeks after ovariectomy, two titanium screw implants were inserted into the left tibia of each rat. Eight weeks after the insertion of the implants, the periotest values (PTV) of implant were examined, and the rats were sacrificed, and examined the reaction of bone tissue surrounding the implant both histologically and histomorphometrically. The bone density and ash weight of opposite right tibia were examined. Over 40 rats were fractured on left tibia that was implant inserted. On histologically finding, all groups were osseointegrated well, especially in OVX+PTH group. In OVX group, tibial cortical bone showed many large harversian canal and microfracture lines. The OVX+PTH group showed the lowest mean PTV (-2.33) (p<0.05), and the hightest mean bone - implant contact percentage (89%) (p>0.05). But the OVX+CT group showed the highest mean bone density ($5.45mg/cm^3$) and ash weight (56.12%) (p<0.05). The results indicate that PTH treatment enhances osseointegration of implant in OVX rats, and CT treatment depresses bone turnover and prevent the development of osteopenia in OVX rats.

Bone marrow culture systems are widely used to differentiate osteoclast-like cells in vitro using several osteotropic hormones. In this study, we isolated and cultured the mouse bone marrow cells with or without some osteotropic hormones such as parathyroid hormone(PTH), prostaglandin $E_2(PGE_2)$ and $l,25(OH)_2-vitamin$ $D_3$(Vit. $D_3$). We confirmed the formation of osteoclast-like cells morphologically and functionally by the expression of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase(TRAP) and by their capability to resorb dentin slices. We also studied the effects of transforming growth $factor-{\beta}(TGF-{\beta})$ and epidermal growth factor(EGF) on the Vit. $D_3-induced$ osteoclast-like cell formation. In control, a few multinucleated cells were formed whereas PTH and $PGE_2$ increased the number of multinucleated cells. PTH, $PGE_2$ and Vit. $D_3$ induced the formation of TRAP-positive multinucleated cells. After culture of mouse bone marrow cells on the dentin slices with or without osteotropic hormones, giant cells with diverse morphology were found on the dentin slices under the scanning electronmicroscopy. After removing the attached cells, resorption pits were identified on the dentin slices, and the shape of resorption pits was variable. EGF increased the osteoclast-like cell formation induced by Vit. $D_3$, however, $TGF-{\beta}$ showed biphasic effect, which at low concentration, increased and at high concentration, decreased the osteoclast-like cell formation induced by Vit. $D_3$.
