Osteoporotic Rat Models for Evaluation of Osseointegration of Bone Implants

Abstract: Osseointegration of dental and orthopedic bone implants is the important process that leads to mechanical fixation of implants and warrants implant functionality. In view of increasing numbers of osteoporotic patients, bone implant surface optimization strategies with instructive and drug-loading ability have been heavily explored. However, few animal models are available to study the effect of novel implant surface modifications in osteoporotic conditions. Since laboratory rats comply with a number of practic… Show more

“…The removal of the ovaries or testis induces a decline in estrogen or androgen levels, respectively, which leads to a rapid loss of cancellous bone mass and strength . The most conventional osteoporotic animal model is the ovariectomized (OVX) rat, which mimics the bone changes in humans following menopause or oöphorectomy . Bone loss occurs first in trabecular bone, after which cortical bone is affected .…”

“…The resulting scaffold will contain bone matrix components from the initial scaffold as well as cell‐laid matrix, which mimics the nanoscale architecture and bioactive moieties of natural bone. In a proof of concept evaluation, these developed scaffolds are implanted in an orthotopic model to assess the capacity for osseointegration and new bone formation …”

“…After sufficient culture time, osteoblastic differentiation, and matrix production, the scaffolds will be implanted into rat femoral condyle defects. This orthotopic site implant allows for the evaluation of integration with the native bone tissue and the ability of the construct to promote healing of the defect site …”

“…Consequently, it is important to study this tissue reorganization phenomena in 3D. This becomes even more important when the dynamic equilibrium of balance is disturbed, as is the case in osteoporosis, a compromised bone condition affects the finally achieved implant fixation . Several high resolution 3D analysis techniques are available to study bone.…”
