Parathyroid Hormone Protects against Periodontitis-associated Bone Loss

Abstract: Parathyroid hormone (PTH) functions as a major mediator of bone remodeling and as an essential regulator of calcium homeostasis. In addition to the well-established catabolic effects (activation of bone resorption) of PTH, it is now recognized that intermittent PTH administration has anabolic effects (promotion of bone formation). The aim of this study was to investigate whether intermittent administration of PTH in rodents would block the alveolar bone loss observed in rats when a ligature model of periodonti… Show more

“…Miller et al (1997) administered intermittent PTH to the mandibles of aged ovariectomized rats and found that PTH stimulated bone formation in the mandible [237]. Similarly, using a ligature-induced periodontitis model in rodents, another group found that PTH protects against periodontitis-associated bone loss [238]. At a clinical level, analysis of the data published thus far suggested that PTH, which is currently approved for use in the treatment of osteoporosis, might also prove useful for treating other bone-associated diseases such as periodontal disease [236].…”

“…The latter has been derived from studies demonstrating the ability of PDL cells to differentiate into a more mature osteoblastic phenotype after hormonal stimulation [33] and to mineralize the extracellular matrix emphasizing their pivotal role in periodontal regeneration [42,43]. Previously, a promising role for PTH in the attempt to prevent hard tissue loss in the course of inflammatory periodontal disease was suggested from experiments in rodents [44][45][46]. Thus, the intermittent PTH(1-34) effect on osteoprotegerin protein expression provides another piece in the mosaic to explain possible anabolic effects of the hormone on periodontal hard tissues aiming at tissue preservation or regeneration.…”

“…For instance, some studies have measured the destruction in the furcation area, others in proximal sites, some in buccal and lingual areas, others with only one measurement, or repeated measurements, etc. 14,[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] To the best of our knowledge, there are no studies evaluating ligatureinduced alveolar bone loss in proximal and buccal/ palatal surfaces in rats. Although ligature-induced alveolar bone loss measurement in proximal surfaces may be difficult to perform in morphometric analyses, the focus of the present study was to examine differences in the prevalence and extension of periodontal disease in proximal surfaces in humans, which could also occur in animals.…”
