Preventive effect of teriparatide on medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw in rats

This study aimed to investigate the preventive effect of teriparatide (TPD) administration on medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) before tooth extraction due to periodontal lesions in bilaterally ovariectomized female rats treated with zoledronic acid. Thirty skeletally mature Spragu...

Sumario:This study aimed to investigate the preventive effect of teriparatide (TPD) administration on medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) before tooth extraction due to periodontal lesions in bilaterally ovariectomized female rats treated with zoledronic acid. Thirty skeletally mature Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: control (CONT, n = 10), zoledronic acid (ZA, n = 10), and zoledronic acid and teriparatide (ZA-TPD, n = 10). The rats were sacrificed 8 weeks after tooth extraction. Micro-computed tomography analysis of the tibia showed that bone mineral density was highest in the CONT, followed by that in the ZA and ZA-TPD groups (CONT/ZA, p = 0.009; CONT/ZA-TPD, p < 0.001; ZA/ZA-TPD, p < 0.001). In the trabecular bone analysis of the extraction site, significant differences in specific bone surface (CONT/ZA, p = 0.010; CONT/ZA-TPD, p = 0.007; ZA/ZA-TPD, p = 0.002) and trabecular thickness (CONT/ZA-TPD, p = 0.002; ZA/ZA-TPD, p = 0.002) were observed. Histological analyses of the extraction sites revealed characteristic MRONJ lesions in the ZA group. Osteonecrosis, inflammatory cells, and sequestrum were less frequently observed in the ZA-TPD group than in the ZA group. In conclusion, TPD administration before tooth extraction helped reduce the occurrence of MRONJ in rats treated with zoledronic acid, confirming its preventative effects.
