EFFECT OF BONE MARROW DERIVED MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS VS ALENDRONATE SODIUM IN TREATMENT OF INDUCED ESTROGEN DEFICIENCY OSTEOPOROSIS IN ALVEOLAR BONE OF ALBINO RATS

Abstract
Background: Despite extensive efforts for the understanding and
curative options for osteoporosis, it remains a critical public health
threat. Alendronate sodium, an amino bisphosphonate, is a potent
antiresorptive drug used in the treatment of osteoporosis in
postmenopausal women. On the other hand, BMMSCS are considered
one of the recent therapeutic modalities that promote bone regeneration
by increasing the number and activity of osteoblasts. Hence, based on
the role of alveolar bone in dentistry, it is important to study the effect
of estrogen deficiency and its therapies on tooth-supporting alveolar
bone.
Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of an
estrogen deficient state in rats, and its treatments namely BMMSCs and
Alendronate sodium, on the structure of tooth-supporting alveolar bone.
Methodology: Forty-eight female albino rats were divided equally into
4 groups: Gp 1 received only distilled water during the whole
experimental duration. Gps 2, 3 and 4 underwent bilateral ovariectomy
where Gp 2 received no treatment, group 3 was treated by
Alendronate sodium and finally group 4 received BMMSCs injection.
After 4 weeks samples from all groups were collected and evaluated
using hematoxylin and eosin as well as Masson trichrome. Number of
osteocytes and thickness of bone trabeculae were statistically analyzed.
Results: The histological examination revealed obvious enhancement
of the alveolar bone condition by both modalities of treatment however
statistically insignificant outcomes were observed regarding
mesenchymal stem cell treated group.
Conclusion: BMMSCs injection does not significantly overcome the
effect of the most widely used Alendronate Sodium in treatment of
alveolar bone osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats.
