Resumen
Descripción general del contenido del recurso.
Nitric oxide (NO) is consideres as a possible local regulator of bone metabolism and bone cell activity. NO es generated by NO sythsses (NOS) isoforms. Thi endothelial (eNOS) and the inducible (iNOS) isoforms are expressed by osteoblasts and osteoclasts. The first aim of this study was to investigate the specific roles of these isoforms using eNOS and iNOS gene-deficient mice (eNOS -/- and iNOS, respectively) by performing histomorphometry and molecular biology techniques. The second aim of this study to investigate the role of NO in the pathogenesis of lactational osteoporosis in rats and to assess the effects of lactation on bone metabolism and bone cell activity. Endothelial NOS gene-deficient mice showed a decrease in bone volume (BV/TV) and in bone formation rate (BFR/BS). These appear to be due to a decrease in osteoblast surface and therefore, suggest thart there is an abnormal osteoblast commitmentand recruitment. Similary, iNOS-/- mice displayed a reduction in BV/TV and in BFR/BS. However, it seems to be due to a reduction in osteoblast metabolism and activity rather than to a reduction in osteoblast recruitment. Study conducted in rats during lactation showed in BV/TV and an increase in bone remodelling, more pronounced than the observed in ovariectomized rats. However, lactated rats also showed a reduction in mineralised surface (MS/BS), in mineral appositional rate (MAR) and in BFR/BS. A positive correlation was observed between the level of eNOS expression in the growth plate and the intensity of endochondral growth rate and with the intensity of bone remodelling activity in the methaphyses. A positive correlation was also observed between the oestrogen levels and the level of eNOS expression in the growth plate but not with the eNOS expression in the trabecular metaphyses. Taking together these data suggest that eNOS is involved in endochondral growth and in bone remodelling. However, oestrogen levels seems to be related, at least in part, with endochondral growth rate but seems to have less influence in bone remodelling activity.
