    Notes: Summary The present studies are aimed at establishing molecular correlations in the interaction of very low frequency electromagnetic fields with biological systems. Ca-uptake by chick embryo tibia rudiment in short-term culture was a useful model. Tibiae of 8- to 10-day-old chick embryos were incubated 60 min in simplified culture media in the presence of45Ca at 37.5±0.5°C either inside or outside pulsating electromagnetic fields. Radioactivity count in the medium was the most accurate method for determining Ca-uptake by the rudiment. The effect of the fields on the Ca-uptake depended markedly on the chemical composition of the culture medium: bicarbonate was indispensable; glucose or sucrose was important; phosphate was potentiating; ethanol, Mg2+, and NaF were stimulating. The field had no effect in (a) blank medium without tibia, (b) tibiae that had been altered by fixation with aqueous glutaraldehyde, (c) nonliving artificial systems endowed with great or small ion sorption capacity. The unique bicarbonate effect with living systems and the passive behavior of nonliving ion sorbing systems prompt the suggestion that the electromagnetic field probably couples with specific processes, such as a bicarbonate-dependent Ca2+ ATPase and the active ion transport, at the cell membrane level. The molecular mechanisms remain to be established.

    Notes: Summary In a liquid (22°C) saturated with and in contact with powdered bone apatite, the fluoride ion activity was adjusted to 1–10 parts/106. Due to the fluorapatite (FAP) supersaturation produced hereby, a rapid formation of this salt occurred leading to a decrease of the concentration of the ions involved. When no more fluoride was available in the liquid, the concentrations of calcium and phosphate increased again, due to dissolution of presumeably hydroxyapatite (HAP). Fifty four rats were given either 10, 20, or 40 mg NaF per kg body weight intraperitoneally. The animals were sacrificed from 5 min to 96 h after the injection. The fluoride concentration in plasma increased to a peak, after which it decreased. Plasma calcium decreased and remained low until the fluoride had attained normal levels. The intensity of mineralization of the growing dental hard tissue was monitored on microradiographs. Corresponding to the plasma fluoride peak and the decrease of plasma calcium, a hypermineralized layer was formed while a hypomineralized zone was formed during plasma calcium increase after disappearance of fluoride. Similarities and dissimilarities between thein vitro and thein vivo experiments are discussed.

    Notes: Summary To evaluate the effect of prednisone and triple treatment (sodium fluoride, calcium, and vitamin D) on trabecular and cortical bone serial bone mineral content (BMC) measurements were made at a metaphyseal (BMCD) and diaphyseal (BMCP) site on the forearm on 31 consecutive and previously bone-healthy patients scheduled for at least 24 weeks high-dose prednisone treatment. The patients were randomized into two further treatment groups: group I (n=16) received prednisone plus triple treatment and group II (n=15) received only prednisone. The two groups were similar with regard to age, sex, prednisone dose, and initial BMC. During 24 weeks treatment, BMCD (partially representing trabecular bone) and BMCP (mainly representing cortical bone) fell significantly and similarly, demonstrating that there is no preventive effect on bone mineral loss on the triple regimen. The BMC fall after 12 weeks was significantly more pronounced for metaphyseal (partially trabecular) than for diaphyseal (cortical) bone, whereas the values did not differ significantly after 24 weeks; this indicates a greater sensitivity to the hormone treatment of trabecular bone. In the entire group, the fall in BMC correlated positively with individual prednisone dose, significant at the diaphyseal site (r=0.39,P〈0.05), but not at the metaphyseal site (r=0.31, P=0.08). It is concluded that corticosteroid-induced osteopenia is a diffuse bone disease which affects trabecular as well as cortical bone, suggesting that BMC measured on the forearm reflects changes in bone mineral at other locations.

    Notes: Abstract The poor stability of crude solutions of fusicoccin-binding sites, prepared from acetonedried microsomal fractions of spinach leaves, results from the attack by endogenous phosphatase and α-mannosidase. The addition of either of these enzymes to solubilised binding sites preincubated with [3H]fusicoccin promptly releases most of the bound radioactivity. A satisfactory stabilization of the crude preparations is obtained with fluoride added either during homogenization of the tissue, or immediately after solubilisation. The results indicate that the fusicoccin-binding sites are phosphorylated glycoproteins.

    Notes: Abstract Yeast β(1–3) glucan synthetase is stimulated and stabilized by EDTA. Sucrose protects the enzyme from selfinactivaton. Preincubation of cell free extracts at low sucrose concentrations indicates a slow transition of the enzyme towards dissociation. Transition kinetics at 30° C and 0° C in the presence and in the absence of sucrose are interpreted assuming that a subunit is thermolabile in the free state and that sucrose increases its stability. Magnesium is deletereous for glucan synthetase in cell-free extracts. Chaotropic agents inactivate glucan synthetase according to their capacity to solubilize and depolymerize biological compounds. Fluoride plays a special role in the activation of glucan synthetase. Its action appears to be dependent on the presence of GTP (or other nucleotides). The role of all these agents on the activity and stability of the enzyme is interpreted in a unified scheme.

    Notes: Summary Forty 5-week-old rats were randomly divided into 1 control group given a normal diet and water low in fluoride (0.026 mM/1) and experimental group receiving the same basic diet and a fluoride supplement of 2.6 mMol/l in the drinking water. After 30 weeks, half of the fluoride-supplemented and half of the nonsupplemented animals were given a calcium-deficient diet for another 16 weeks. Parathyroid activity was estimated by determinations of serum levels of parathyroid hormone and by light microscopic, morphometric evaluation of randomized sections of the parathyroid glands. Serum iPTH and parathyroid nuclear size were significantly increased in the calcium-deficient animals without any fluoride supplement. Fluoride administration to animals on a normal diet did not cause any increase in the serum iPTH levels or in the morphometric parameters for nuclear size. Calcium-deficient animals given a fluoride supplement also showed normal serum iPTH levels and normal parathyroid nuclear size. It is therefore concluded that fluoride does not induce hyperparathyroidism and, further, that fluoride seems to inhibit increased parathyroid activity caused by calcium deficiency.

    Notes: Summary We studied the mechanical properties and structural changes in the monkey tibia with disuse osteoporosis and during subsequent recovery. Bone bending stiffness was evaluated in relationship to microscopic changes in cortical bone and Norland bone mineral analysis. Restraint in the semireclined position produced regional losses of bone most obviously in the anterior-proximal tibiae. Following 6 months of restraint, the greatest losses of bone mineral in the proximal tibiae ranged from 23% to 31%; the largest changes in bone stiffness ranged from 36% to 40%. Approximately 8 ½ months of recovery were required for restoration of normal bending properties. However, even after 15 months of recovery, bone mineral content did not necessarily return to normal levels. Histologically, resorption cavities in cortical bone were seen within 1 month of restraint; by 2 ½ months of restraint there were large resorption cavities subperiosteally, endosteally, and intracortically. After 15 months of recovery, the cortex consisted mainly of first-generation haversian systems. After 40 months, the cortex appeared normal with numerous secondary and tertiary generations of haversian systems.

    Notes: Summary The effects of 1.5–2 years oral administration of disodium (3-amino-1-hydroxypropylidene)-1,1-bisphosphonate (APD) on bone metabolism were studied in male and female rats. APD was mixed in the food at levels of 500, 2,000 and 10,000 ppm. A dose-dependent increase in metaphyseal bone was found, indicative of continued inhibition of bone and cartilage resorption. APD did not affect mineralization of bone and cartilage, primary bone formation, or periosteal apposition. A short-term metabolic balance study was performed to compare the effects of oral with subcutaneous APD. Absorption of APD was in the order of 0.2%. Oral APD increased absorption of phosphate, probably by complexation of calcium with APD. The excess absorbed phosphate increased phosphaturia and decreased urinary calcium.

    Notes: Summary Femurs of weanling rats from third-pregnancy litters of dams given 150 ppm fluoride in the drinking water were examined by light- and scanning-electron microscopy. Under the conditions of the experimental procedure, no pathological changes were seen in the femurs as a result of maternal ingestion of fluoride. These results indicate that the amount of fluoride crossing the placenta and mammary gland was insufficient to produce significant morphological changes in the bones of 3-week-old rats.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The effect of carob bean gum (9.5 g/1000 kcal, 4184 kJ) in the daily diet on the absorption of Ca, Fe, Zn und Cu was determined during a 4-week balance study in 2 male and 6 female healthy subjects, aged 19 to 25 years. A normal mixed diet was used, to which carob bean gum was added during food preparation for the last 2 weeks of the study. The absorption of minerals and trace elements was calculated as the difference between dietary intake and fecal excretion. The ingestion of carob bean gum caused a significant reduction in the absorption of Ca, Fe and Zn when compared to the control diet, while the absorption of Cu remained unchanged.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung In einem vierwöchigen Bilanzversuch wurde der Einflu\ von Johannisbrotkernmehl (JBM) in der Nahrung (9,5 g/1000 kcal, 4184 kJ) auf die Resorption von Ca, Fe, Zn und Cu in zwei männlichen und sechs weiblichen gesunden Versuchspersonen im Alter zwischen 19 und 25 Jahren geprüft. Die Versuchsdiät bestand aus einer normalen Mischkost, der während der letzten zwei Wochen der Untersuchung JBM bei der Speisezubereitung zugefügt wurde. Die Resorption der Mineralstoffe und Spurenelemente wurde als Differenz aus Zufuhr mit der Diät und Ausscheidung im Kot berechnet. Die Zufuhr von JBM führte gegenüber der Kontrolldiät zu einer signifikanten Verringerung der Resorption von Ca, Fe und Zn. Die Cu-Resorption blieb unverändert.

    Notes: Summary The bone resorptive factor and amphipathic antigen (AcA) previously identified by us in preparations fromActinomyces viscosus have been partially purified, characterized chemically, and compared. They elute at the same location on chromatography with Ac 22. The fatty acid composition of AcA and the bone resorptive factor is the same. Some differences in carbohydrate composition are observed. TheActinomyces factor does not affect calcium influx or cyclic AMP in isolated bone cells. Therefore it is concluded that AcA stimulates resorption either by gaining entrance into bone cells or by way of a yet undetermined second messenger.

    Notes: Summary The effects of fluoride on human enamel and selachian enameloid in vitro were visualized in TEM and analyzed with electron diffraction. It is demonstrated that under precise pH conditions, inducing concentration balance between F− ions and apatite, calcium fluoride is no longer formed, and crystalline changes occur instead. A secondary growing process, inducing a twofold increase in crystal size, involves all crystal faces, altering the hexagonal symmetry. It is suggested that the mechanism involved is not a dissolution/precipitation process but rather a secondary growth of residual crystallites induced by apatite dissolution.

    Notes: Summary Bone mineral content (BMC) was measured by125I photon absorptiometry every 3 months in 264 normal females (45–54 years) over a 2-year period together with serum samples for calcium, phosphate, magnesium, creatinine, alkaline phosphatases, potassium, and protein. A 48-h urinary calcium and creatinine measurement was obtained. The subjects were divided into 7 treatment groups and 3 placebo groups. Five of the treatments (thiazide, vitamin D3, fluoride + vitamin D3, fluoride, and 1αD3) were ineffective at the doses used; the annual loss of compact bone was 1.5–2.2% (-X=1.8%), similar to the loss seen with placebos. Estrogen and estrogen + thiazide, in contrast, produced a 1.34% annual increase of BMC. The subjects were divided into groups with low, medium, and high initial BMC. Also, individual regressions for bone change were calculated and the subjects were divided into groups of responders, maintainers, and losers (annual change of 〉0%, 0 to −1%, and 〉−1%, respectively). The initial BMC status did not consistently affect bone or biochemical responses to the therapeutic agents. Estrogen was effective even in subjects with high BMC, whereas the other agents did not inhibit bone loss even in subjects with low initial BMC. Virtually all subjects responded to estrogen positively; in contrast we could not identify a subset of “responders” with any of the other treatments. Time since menopause appeared to influence the bone changes, although it was not a significant effect given the sample size. Bone loss in groups not treated with estrogens was 2%/year at 20 months after menopause with a decline to 1.3%/year at 45 months post-menopause. There was no apparent decline in the bone response to estrogen during the first 4 years after menopause, and in fact bone response tended to increase with time.

    Notes: Summary Sodium fluoride 10, 20, or 40 mg/kg body weight was given intraperitoneally to rats (6–11 days old and 90–95 days old). Blood analyses showed an initial increase in plasma fluoride concentration. The subsequent decrease in fluoride was paralleled by a decrease in total plasma calcium. These plasma concentrations were normal at blood collection 4 days after fluoride injection. The baby rats differed from the older rats in that their initial plasma calcium was higher and that the drop in plasma calcium concentration was less pronounced than in the old rats. A diet low in calcium and phosphate enhanced the effects of fluoride on total plasma calcium. The data indicate that the effect of large doses of fluoride on lowering the plasma calcium level is modified by the calcium intake.

    Notes: Summary An investigation of the role of copper in bone metabolism was undertaken. Explanted calvaria from 6-day-old mice were grown for 48 h in medium with and without the addition of copper sulfate. Active resorption was found to be significantly inhibited in the presence of copper sulfate concentrations of 10−6M and above. Copper sulfate concentrations of 10−5M and above inhibited hydroxyproline, protein, and DNA synthesis. Lower concentrations were ineffective. The effect of 5 × 10−6M copper sulfate on resorption was reversible. Several other compounds were tested for similar effects and at 5 × 10−6M were found to inhibit bone resorption in the order: copper sulfate 〉 brown gold chloride 〉 sodium aurothiomalate 〉 zinc sulfate 〉 sodium sulfate. The copper sulfate effect was twice that of sodium aurothiomalate, and sodium sulfate was not significantly inhibitory. The results suggest that the high serum copper levels associated with rheumatoid arthritis may reflect the activity of a hypothetical control mechanism of bone resorption. In the diseased state this would act to restore the normal rate of bone resorption.

    Notes: Summary The parathyroid glands of young male rats given 150 ppm fluoride in their drinking water for 10 weeks were examined by transmission electron microscopy. As a result of fluoride ingestion, the parathyroid chief cells of the experimental animals accumulated glycogen in excess of that seen in control animals given distilled drinking water for the same time period. In the majority of active chief cells, glycogen granules were diffusely spread throughout the cytoplasm as single granules or in small deposits. Large aggregations of glycogen granules were also seen within intercellular spaces. Accompanying the increase in glycogen was a rise in the number and development of the organelles associated with protein synthesis and secretion. The accumulation of glycogen is similar to that in hyperparathyroidism caused by chronic stimulation and prolonged secretory activity of the parathyroid gland. The results of this study suggest that increased amounts of glycogen occur in hyperactive chief cells of the parathyroid in response to the ingestion of large doses of fluoride.

    Notes: Summary The secretory mechanism of the parathyroid glands of fluoride treated rats is evaluated ultrastructurally and compared to that of control rats. The principal difference between the two groups of rats concerns the rate of activity of the chief cells of the gland. In the control animals, these cells are predominantly inactive. In the fluoride-treated rats, they exhibit a more active stage of the secretory cycle. The active chief cells in rats treated with fluoride contain increased numbers of secretory granules. These granules are released into the perivascular spaces within cytoplasmic projections suggesting an apocrine-like mechanism for the secretion of parathyroid hormone. Secretory granules are observed free in the perivascular spaces and within the cytoplasm of capillary endothelial cells in the parathyroid glands.

    Notes: Summary The femurs from rats given 120 ppm fluoride in their drinking water for 4 weeks were examined with histological, histochemical, and radiographic methods. Blood removed from the rats prior to sacrifice was analyzed for calcium, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase. Results of this study indicated that the ingestion of fluoride produced wide osteoid seams on the periosteal surface of the femoral diaphysis within 4 weeks. The increase in osteoid appeared to be due to an increase in the number of osteoid-producing cells (osteoblasts) along with a subsequent delay in the mineralization of this tissue. The metabolic activity of osteoblasts did not appear to be affected since the intracellular production of acid and alkaline phosphatase was not inhibited. However, due to the high concentration of fluoride ingested, abnormal collagen deposition and a change in bone mineral may have combined to cause a delay in osteoid mineralization. Mineralization was also delayed in the distal femoral epiphyseal plate resulting in an increase in the number of hypertrophied cells. Resorption of metaphyseal trabecular bone, presumably formed prior to fluoride administration, was increased causing a reduction in the amount of trabeculae extending into the shaft of the femur. Concurrent with these changes in bone, the serum levels of calcium, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase remained within normal ranges.

    Notes: Summary Lactating female rats were fed diets containing 1.0, 0.1, or 0.04% Ca for 21 days. Fat-free dry weight, ash weight, calcium and phosphorus content of the humerus, plasma calcium levels, and bone acid and alkaline phosphatase activites were compared to those of nonlactating rats fed the same diets. Bone, plasma, and urinary cAMP levels were also studied. Dietary calcium deficiency and/or lactation caused significant loss of bone mass from experimental animals. Urinary cAMP levels reflecting increased parathyroid activity were elevated by the stresses of lactation and calcium deficiency over those of control animals. Plasma and bone levels of cAMP were not different. Bone alkaline and acid phosphatase activities were affected only by the most extreme stress. The results demonstrated that the calcium-deficient lactating rat is an excellent model for bone resorption studies.

    Notes: Summary Dose-related effects of APD on bone metabolism and Ca homeostasis were studied in rats. The experimental approach consisted of longitudinal and cross-sectional observations, aiming at a kinetic interpretation. Bone and cartilage resorption was inhibited within 2–8 days at doses between 0.16 and 16 µmol/kg body weight/day. This was followed by changes in bone apposition that needed at least 23 days for a maximal effect. The time lag created a transient dissociation between resorption and apposition resulting in excess Ca and P retention, adding to increased metaphyseal bone mass. At high doses of APD (≥40 µmol/kg/day) the mineral content of new matrix decreased, associated with impairment of longitudinal growth of long bones. It is concluded that the lower doses of APD inhibited resorption of bone and cartilage, possibly by physicochemical stabilization of bone mineral, whereas the effect on bone apposition was due to a cellular homeostatic mechanism. Inhibition of growth and of matrix calcification, requiring much higher doses, may be due to a direct, toxic effect on bone cells. The modes of action of APD are discussed in relation to EHDP and Cl2MDP.

    Notes: Summary Radiographically normal vertebral bone cylinders from 80 male subjects were tested mechanically by static compression and analyzed for porosity, fluoride and ash content. As a group, they had low fluoride content, suggesting little prior intake, consonent with this geographic area. Nevertheless, increasing levels of fluoride were associated with bulkier bone, less porosity, and less mineral per unit of bone, which in direction though not degree suggested changes similar to those of osteomalacia and opposite from those of osteoporosis without apparent threshold. The higher fluoride hard tissue was weaker in static tests than that with less fluoride, but the increased bulk apparently offset this, resulting in bones of unchanged static strength. Hence, water fluoridation should not alter static bone strength. There has, however, been a recent report suggesting that increased mineralization of bone renders it more brittle and thus more likely to fracture on impact. Therefore, the possibility that fluoridation may increase impact resistance by lessening mineralization can be entertained.

    Notes: Summary Female rats were used to study the kinetics of plutonium transfer from the bone surfaces of the mandibular condyle to osteoclasts and macrophages. This study was made using autoradiographs prepared from plastic sections of the mineralized bones of animals which had been injected with241 Pu citrate. Measurements of the concentration of plutonium in the osteoclasts and macrophages at different times after the injection of plutonium showed that plutonium was concentrated by osteoclasts from bone surfaces and was retained with a half-time of ∼ 70 h. Subsequently, plutonium appeared to be transferred to macrophages. The results showed that plutonium was unlikely to be accumulated by macrophages as a result of their participation in bone resorption.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des expériences ont été faites sur le rat afin de tester les possiblités d'ingestion perorale simultanée de fluor (F) et de calcium (Ca) en proportions calculées pour traitement de certaines ostéopénies humaines. F sous forme de Na2PO3F et Ca sous forme de gluconate de calcium (CaGluc) n'influençaient pas l'un l'autre quant à l'utilisation par le squelette (fémur). Une viscosité élevée, produite par l'addition d'amidon ou de cellulose carboxyméthylée (CMC) à la solution ou dilution ingérée, augmentait l'utilisation du F même si CaGluc était remplacé par citrate de calcium, qui en soi avait un effet réducteur modéré sur l'utilisation du F. Le glycérophosphate de calcium réduisait fortement l'utilisation du F même en présence de CMC. L'utilisation du F comme NaF était fortement réduite par CaGluc, même en présence de CMC. Les concentrations testées de Na2PO3F, NaF ou CMC n'influençaient pas l'utilisation squelettique de Ca comme CaGluc.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Es wurden Rattenexperimente mit markierten Substanzen durchgeführt, um die Auswirkung simultaner peroraler Gaben von Fluor (F) und von Calcium (Ca) zu prüfen, und zwar in einem Verhältnis, das für die Behandlung gewisser menschlicher Osteopenien berechnet wurde. Fluor in Form von Na2PO3F und Ca in Form von Calciumgluconat (CaGluc) interferieren gegenseitig nicht bei der Verwertung durch das Skelet (Femur). Eine hohe Viscosität der eingegebenen Lösung oder der Aufschlämmung, die durch Zusatz von Stärke oder Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) erzielt wurde, erhöhte die Verwertbarkeit von F sogar wenn CaGluc durch Calciumcitrat ersetzt wurde, welches die F-Verwertung leicht reduzierte. Calcium-glyzerophosphat verminderte die Fluoraufnahme in den Knochen stark, sogar in Anwesenheit von CMC. Die Verwertung von F als NaF war stark herabgesetzt durch CaGluc, selbst beim Vorhandensein von CMC. Die untersuchten Konzentrationen von Na2PO3F, NaF oder CMC hatten keinen Einfluß auf die Calciumaufnahme im Skelet in Form von CaGluc.
    Notes: Abstract Rat experiments with labelled compounds were carried out in order to test the possibilities of simultaneous peroral supply of fluorine (F) and calcium (Ca) in proportions calculated for treatment of certain human osteopenias. F in the form of Na2PO3F and Ca in the form of calcium gluconate (CaGluc) did not interfere with each other's utilisation by the skeleton (femur). A high viscosity produced by adding starch or carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) to the ingested solution or slurry increased the utilisation of F even when CaGluc was replaced by calcium citrate, which moderately reduced F utilisation. Calcium glycerophosphate strongly reduced F utilisation even in the presence of CMC. The utilisation of F as NaF was strongly reduced by CaGluc, even in the presence of CMC. The tested concentrations of Na2PO3F, NaF or CMC did not influence the skeletal utilisation of Ca as CaGluc.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une méthode quantitative pour étudier les effets précoces des hormones et autres agents sur la mobilisation du calcium osseux a été mise au point. Des moitiés de calottes craniennes de souris de 6 jours, ayant reçu du45Ca quatre jours auparavant, sont explantéesin vitro et placées dans des récipients séparés, en milieu liquide; une moitié sert de témoin, l'autre moitié est utilisée pour l'expérimentation. Ce mode d'action dans le temps, de chaque produit testé, est déterminé en prélevant aseptiquement de petits échantillons dans le milieu et en dosant l'isotope. L'hormone parathyroidienne et la vitamine A provoquent une résorption osseuse étendue ainsi qu'un passage augmenté du45Ca des os traités dans le milieu, au bout de 2 heures, si on les compare aux témoins. La calcitonine inhibe rapidement la mobilisation du45Ca des os résorbés: l'intervalle de temps est similaire à celui obtenuin vivo en abaissant le calcium sérique. Nos résultats indiquent que les agents, qui induisent la résorption osseuse, augmentent à la fois le nombre des ostéoclastes et l'efficacité des cellules existantes, en ce qui concerne la mobilisation du calcium. La calcitonine inhibe la libération du45Ca des explants vivants, maintenus dans un milieu contrôle. Cette réduction est attribuée à la suppression de la résorption endogène, en cours au moment de la transplantation: un échange isotopique est toujours observé, comme au niveau des explants sur vivants.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine quantitative Methode zur Bestimmung der Früheffekte von Hormonen oder andern Wirkstoffen auf die Wanderung von Calcium in den oder aus dem Knochen wurde entwickelt. Calvarien-Hälften von 6 Tagen alten, 4 Tage früher mit45Ca markierten Mäusen werden explantiert und in getrennten Schalen mit flüssiger Nährlösungin vitro belassen. Die eine Hälfte dient als Kontrolle, die andere wird für das Experiment eingesetzt. Anhand kleiner Proben, die den Medien aseptisch entnommen und auf ihren Isotopengehalt geprüft werden, kann die Wirkung der verschiedenen Agentien im Verlaufe der Zeit beobachtet werden. Sowohl Parahormon als auch Vitamin A verursachen eine ausgedehnte Knochenresorption und es wurde, im Vergleich zu den Kontrollen, innerhalb von 2 Std eine gesteigerte Abgabe von45Ca aus den behandelten Knochen in das Medium nachgewiesen, Die Freisetzung von45Ca aus resorbierenden Knochen wird durch Calcitonin rasch inhibiert. Wirkungsweise und Verlauf bestehen, wiein vivo, in einer Senkung des Serum-Calciums. Unsere Resultate zeigen, daß Wirkstoffe, welche eine Knochenresorption veranlassen, sowohl die Zahl der polynucleären Osteoklasten ansteigen lassen als auch die vorhandenen Zellen zur vermehrten Calcium-Mobilisation anregen. Calcitonin dagegen verhindert die Bildung neuer, polynucleärer Osteoklasten wie auch die Mobilisation von Knochenmineral durch die vorhandenen Osteoklasten. Calcitonin wirkt hemmend auf die Abgabe von45Ca von lebenden Explantaten, die in Kontrollmedium kultiviert werden. Diese Abnahme wird der Unterdrückung der endogenen Resorption zugeschrieben, welche im Moment der Knochenexplantation im Gange ist; der Austausch des Isotopes findet weiterhin statt, wie dies bei einem toten Explantat der Fall ist.
    Notes: Abstract A sensitive method has been developed for studying the early effects of hormones and other agents on the movement of calcium into and out of bone. Half-calvariae from 6-day-old mice that have been pulsed four days previously with45Ca, are explanted into separate dishes of liquid medium and maintainedin vitro; one half serves as control and the other for experimentation. The time course of action of any agent is followed by removing small samples aseptically from the media and analysing for isotope. Both parathyroid hormone and vitamin A cause extensive bone resorption, and as compared with controls an increased release of45Ca from the treated bones into the medium can be detected within 2 hours. Calcitonin rapidly inhibits the release of45Ca from resorbing bones; the time course is similar to that for its actionin vivo in lowering serum calcium. Our results indicate that agents that induce bone resorption increase both the number of multinucleate osteoclasts and the effectiveness of the existing cells in mobilising calcium. Calcitonin prevents the formation of new multinucleate osteoclasts, and also prevents existing osteoclasts from mobilising bone mineral. Calcitonin inhibits the release of45Ca from living explants maintained in control medium. This reduction is attributed to the suppression of the endogenous resorption that is in progress when the bones are explanted; exchange of isotope still occurs, as in a dead explant.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une méthode quantitativein vitro est utilisée pour étudier l'efficacité relative des préparations de calcitonine, provenant de diverses espèces. La méthode est basée sur le fait que la calcitonine inhibe de façon nette la libération de45Ca de moitiés de calottes craniennes de souris, âgées de 6 jours, ayant été marquées auparavant; cet effect est lié à la suppression de la résorption endogène, qui se déroule, lorsque les os sont explantés et qui se continuein vitro en l'absence de calcitonine. Des différences nettes de l'effect d'inhibition des préparations de calcitonine ont été trouvées, qu'elles proviennent de corps ultimobranchiaux ou de thyroides de mammifères. La calcitonine humaine et la calcitonine porcine, standard A, se comportent de façon identique et sont environ dix fois plus actifs que la calcitonine porcinek standard B, en se basant sur les critéres unitaires utilisés au cours de cette étude chez le rat. Les calcitonines de corps ultimobranchiaux sont plus efficaces à doses faibles, pendant des périodes plus longues, que les préparations thyroidiennes et elles sont au moins dix fois plus efficaces que la calcitonine porcine standard A et cent fois plus actives que la calcitonine porcine standard B. Les explants traités par la calcitonine libère l'isotope dans le milieu d'une manière identique à celle de l'os mort, tant que la calcitonine reste active: pour la calcitonine de saumon, on observe pendant 20 heures un échange d'isotope entre l'os vivant, traité avec ce produit et le calcium du milieu, ainsi que cela se produit pour des fragments d'os congelé. Ces résultats sont utiles pour des études quantitatives, devant déterminer le mode d'action d'autres produits influençant la résorption et l'apposition osseuse. L'adjonction de calcitonine permet, en effet, de mesurer l'échange d'isotope libéré de l'os, ainsi traité à tous les stades, sans tuer les tissus ou sans avoir recours à des inhibiteurs spécifiques du métabolisme.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Ein quantitativerin vitro-Versuch wurde angewandt, um die relative Wirksamkeit von Calcitonin-Präparaten aus verschiedenen Spezies zu untersuchen. Der Versuch beruht auf der Feststellung, daß Calcitonin einen ausgeprägten Hemmeffekt auf die Freisetzung von45Ca aus markierten Calvarien-Hälften von 6tägigen Mäusen hat. Dieser Effekt kommt wegen der Unterdrückung der endogenen Resorption zustande, die im Moment der Knochenexplantation im Gange ist, undin vitrobei Abwesenheit von Calcitonin weiter fortschreitet. Auffallende Unterschiede des Hemmeffektes konnten bei Calcitonin-Präparaten sowohl von Ultimobranchialkörpern als auch von Säuger-Thyreoideae festgestellt werden. Menschliches Calcitonin sowie Standard A Schweine-Calcitonin verhalten sich gleich und sind ungefähr 10mal wirksamer als Standard B Schweine-Calcitonin, ausgedrückt in Einheiten bezogen auf den Rattenversuch. Die von Ultimobranchialkörpern stammenden Calcitonin-Präparate sind wirksamer in niedrigerer Dosierung und während einer längeren Zeitspanne als die Thyreoidea-Präparate. Sie wirken zudem mindestens 10mal stärker als Standard A Schweine-Calcitonin und 100mal stärker als Standard B Schweine-Calcitonin. Explantate, welche mit Calcitonin behandelt wurden, geben das Isotop auf die gleiche Weise wie totes Knochengewebe in das Medium ab, solange das Calcitonin wirksam ist. Für Calcitonin vom Lachs besteht eine Zeitpsanne von 20 Std, während welcher die lebenden, mit diesem Präparat behandelten Knochen das Isotop mit dem Calcium des Medium austauschen, in gleicher Weise wie durch Einfrieren und Auftauen getöteten Knochens. Diese Methode wird vermutlich sehr nützlich sein für quantitative Untersuchungen über den Aktionsmodus anderer Stoffe, welche Knochenresorption und-wachstum beeinflussen, da der Calcitonin-Zusatz es ermöglicht, die Austauschkomponente des aus dem behandelten Knochen freigesetzten Isotopes jederzeit zu messen, ohne daß dabei Gewebe zerstört oder weniger spezifische Inhibitoren des Metabolismus herangezogen werden müssen.
    Notes: Abstract Anin vitro method has been used to investigate the relative effectiveness of calcitonin preparations from different species. It is based on the finding that calcitonin has a marked inhibitory effect on the release of45Ca from prelabelled half-calvariae from 6-day-old mice; this effect is due to the suppression of the endogeneous resorption that is in progress when the bones are explanted, and which continuesin vitro in the absence of calcitonin. Striking differences have been found in the inhibitory effect of calcitonin preparations from either ultimobranchial bodies or from mammalian thyroids. Human calcitonin and porcine standard A calcitonin behave similarly and are about ten times more potent than porcine standard B calcitonin in terms of units based on the rat assay. The calcitonins of ultimobranchial origin are more effective at lower doses for a longer period of time than the thyroid preparations, and are at least ten times more potent than porcine standard A calcitonin or 100 times more potent than porcine standard B. Explants treated with calcitonin release isotope into the medium in a similar manner to that of dead bones, as long as the calcitonin remains effective; for salmon calcitonin there is a twenty-hour period in which the release of isotope from living bones treated with this preparation exchange isotope with the calcium in the medium like frozen-thawed bone. This finding should be very useful in quantitative studies on the mode of action of other compounds that influence bone resorption and accretion, since the addition of calcitonin will enable the exchange component of the isotope released from treated bones, to be measured at any stage without killing the tissue or resorting to less specific inhibitors of metabolism.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'action du Mg2+, du citrate3−, du F− et du SO 4 2− sur les45Ca2+ et32PO 4 3− avec la phase minérale osseuse (extraite de l'éthylènediamine) est déterminée dans des conditions physiologiques. Le Mg2+ se substitue au Ca2+ au niveau de la pellicule liquide adhérente (enveloppe d'hydratation), alors que le citrate3− déplace PO 4 3− , à la fois, de la pellicule liquide adhérente et de la surface cristalline. Ces éléments à affinité pour l'os augmente ainsi la solubilité apparente du minéral osseux. A l'inverse, le F− diminue netterment la concentration de Ca2+ et du PO 4 3− dans la solution environante et dans la pellicule liquide adhérente, en formant probablement une couche de liaison de CaF2 à la surface cristalline. Il y a une absorption nette de Ca2+ et PO 4 3− par la phase solide en présence de Mg2+ et F−, qui ne s'observe pas dans les solutions de citrate. Le SO 4 2− n'affecte pas de façon significative la solubilité, la dissolution ou la croissance du minéral osseux.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Wirkung von Mg2+, Citrat3−, F− und SO 4 2− auf den Austausch von45Ca2+ und32PO 4 3− mit dem Mineralanteil von Knochen (Ethylendiaminextraktion) wurde unter physiologischen Verhältnissen verfolgt. Mg2+ substituierte das Ca2+ des anhaftenden Flüssigkeitsfilms (Hydratationsschicht), während Citrat3− das PO 4 3− sowohl vom anhaftenden Flüssigkeitsfilm als auch von der Kristalloberfläche ersetzte. Diese vom Knochen angezogenen Elemente erhöhten demzufolge die scheinbare Löslichkeit des Knochenminerals. Dagegen reduzierte F− die Konzentration von Ca2+ und PO 4 3− wesentlich, sowohl in der umgebenden Lösung als auch im anhaftenden Flüssigkeitsfilm, vermutlich durch Bildung einer CaF2-bindenden Schicht auf der Oberfläche des Kristalls. In Gegenwart von Mg2+ und F− nahm diefeste Phase eindeutig Ca2+ und PO 4 3− auf, was bei Citrat3−-haltigen Lösungen nicht der Fall war. SO 4 2− veränderte weder die Löslichkeit noch die Auflösung oder das Wachstum des Knochenminerals significkant.
    Notes: Abstract The effect of Mg2+, citrate3−, F− and SO 4 2− on the exchange of45Ca2+ and32PO 4 3− with the mineral phase of bone (ethylenediamine-extracted) was determined under physiological conditions. Mg2+ substituted for Ca2+ at the adherent liquid film (hydration shell), while citrate3− displaced PO 4 3− from both the adherent liquid film and the crystal surface. These bone-seeking elements thus increased the apparent solubility of bone mineral. In contrast, F− markedly reduced the concentration of Ca2+ and PO 4 3− in both the ambient solution and the adherent liquid film, probably by inducing the formation of a CaF2 boundary layer at the crystal surface. There was a net uptake of Ca2+ and PO 4 3− by the solids phase in the presence of Mg2+ and F−, but not in citrate3− solutions. SO 4 2− did not significantly affect the solubility, dissolution, or growth of bone mineral.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'os médullaire des poules au moment de la ponte ainsi que l'os néoformé de coqs soumis à des substances oestrogéniques, ont été examinés par les méthodes de l'histologie, de l'histochimie, de la microradiographie et de l'alpharadiographie afin de comparer la résorption naturelle à celle produite par la parathormone. Chez les pondeuses, la résorption a été provoquée par la formation de la coquille; chez les coqs, elle s'est produite à la suite de la diminution du taux des oestrogènes. La résorption naturelle de l'os médullaire a été marquée par un accroissement de la basophilie, de l'azurophilie et de la metachromasie, par la diminution graduelle de la densité organique et minérale. Ces modifications ont été observées d'abord dans la portion distale de l'os médullaire; elles se sont progressivement propagées à la région sous corticale. L'extrait parathyroidien semble avoir favorisé tous ces phénomènes, en stimulant l'ostéolyse ostéocytaire et l'ostéoclasie. Il ne nous a pas été possible cependant de nous rendre compte si les ostéoclastes ne se sont attaqués qu'aux portions des travées déja modifiées par l'ostéolyse. Ces résultats concordent avec l'idée que la résorption normale de l'os médullaire de la poule au temps où la coquille de l'oeuf se dépose, est déclanchée par la parathormone. Il en est de même chez le coq à la suite du retrait des oestrogènes.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Substantia spongiosa der Femora von Legehennen und von Hähnen die mit Östrogen behandelt waren, wurde während spontaner und künstlicher, mit Extrakten von Epithelkörperchen induzierter, Resorption einer histologischen, histochemischen, alpharadiographischen und mikroröntgenographische Untersuchung unterworfen. Die natürliche Resorption wurde bei den Hennen durch die Eischalenproduktion und bei den Hähnen durch Östrogenentzug hervorgerufen. Die natürliche Resorption war durch erhöhte Basophilie, Azurphilie und Metachromasie, sowohl als auch durch verminderter alpharadiographischer und mikroröntgenographischer Dichte der Trabeculae der Substantia spongiosa charakterisiert. Diese Veränderungen wurden zuerst in den zentralen, dem Cavum medullare nächstgelegenen, Teilen der Spongiosa wahrgenommen. Später waren auch die peripheren Teile, mit geringerer Osteocytenkonzentration, betroffen. Diese Veränderungen konnten durch Gaben von Epithelkörperchenextrakten verstärkt werden. Die Resorption der Spongiosa wird durch osteocytische Osteolyse und Osteoklasie bewirkt. Es konnte aber nicht entschieden werden ob diese beiden Prozesse gleichzeitig stattfinden, oder ob die Osteoklasten die Trabeculae erst angreifen, nachdem sie bereits teilweise durch Osteolyse abgebaut worden sind. Diese Resultate stimmen mit der Hypothese überein, daß die natürliche Resorption von Spongiosa während der Eischalenproduktion bei Hennen und nach Entzug von Östrogen bei Hähnen, durch Epithelkörperchenhormonen bedingt ist.
    Notes: Abstract The medullary bone in the femora of laying hens and of oestrogen-treated cocks has been examined by histological, histochemical, alpharadiographic and microroentgenographic techniques while undergoing both natural resorption and resorption induced by injection of parathyroid extract. In the hens, natural resorption was brought about by egg-shell formation and in the cocks by withdrawal of oestrogen. Natural resorption was accompained by increasing basophilia, azurophilia and metachromasia and by decreasing alpharadiographic and microradiographic density of the trabeculae of the medullary bone. These changes were observed initially in the central region (towards the marrow cavity) and subsequently in the peripheral regions also, where the number of osteocytes per unit area of bone was less. Parathyroid extract enhanced all these effects. It appears that resorption of medullary bone was brought about by osteocytic osteolysis and by osteoclasis, but it was not possible to determine whether both processes occurred concurrently or whether the osteoclasts attacked the trabeculae only after they had been partially degraded by osteolysis. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the natural resorption of medullary bone during egg-shell formation in hens and following the withdrawal of oestrogen in cocks is induced by parathyroid hormone.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Divers agents chimiques, colorés, fluorescents et se localisant dans les os, à savoir la tétracycline, l'alazazine rouge S et le DCAF, ont été administré en série à des rats sevrés et on a mesuré le taux de la formation et de la résorption osseuse sur les coupes transversales du tiers supérieur de la diaphyse. Ici la formation osseuse périostale s'effectue progressivement avec peu de changement endostéal. Avec alimentation carnée, la croissance des rats est significativement restreinte pendant la première semaine, mais se rétablit ensuite. Bien qu'il y ait croissance des os, ceux-ci ne se minéralisent pas normalement et ils deviennent rapidement fragiles et amincis. La résorption osseuse est lente d'abord, puis s'accelère pendant 2–3 semaines pour atteindre un taux de 15μ par jour, après quoi elle se ralentit de nouveau. Bien que le taux de formation osseuse soit réduit, en comparaison avec celui des os normaux, la résorption s'effectue environ deux à trois fois plus rapidement que la croissance osseuse. Des études microradiographiques sur des rats à régime carné mais carencés en calcium ont permis la constatation suivante: tandis que la résorption s'effectue à la marge endostéale et que la formation osseuse a lieu sur l'aspect périostéal, la matière osseuse nouvellement formée est moins calcifiéc que chez les témoins.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Einige farbige, fluoreszierende, knochensuchende Chemikalien, z. B. Tetracyclin, Alazarin-Rot S und CDAF, wurden nacheinander an entwöhnten Ratten verabreicht, worauf man die Knochenbildungs- und Knochenresorptionswerte an hartgeschliffenen Schnitten des oberen Drittels der Diaphyse gemessen hat. Hier findet fortschreitend periostale Knochenbildung statt, mit geringer Veränderung des Endosteums. Bei Fleischdiät wird das Körperwachstum während der ersten Woche erheblich beschränkt; danach aber normalisiert es sich wieder. Obwohl die Knochen noch wachsen, zeigen sie keine normale Mineralisierung und werden schnell zerbrechlich und dünn. Die Knochenresorption ist anfangs langsam, dann beschleunigt sie sich während einer Zeitspanne von 2–3 Wochen bis auf 15 μ pro Tag, um sich dann wieder zu verlangsamen. Während die Knochenbildungsgeschwindigkeit relativ zum Normalwert heruntergesetzt wird, verläuft die Resorption ungefähr 2–3mal so schnell wie die Knochenbildung. Mikroradiographische Untersuchungen an mit Fleisch ernährten Ca-armen Ratten haben bestätigt, daß während die Resorption am Endosteumrande stattfindet und sich die Knochenbildung an der Periostenfläche fortsetzt, die neugebildete Knochensubstanz weniger kalzifiziert ist, als die der Kontrolltiere.
    Notes: Abstract Different coloured, fluorescent bone-seeking chemicals, viz., tetracycline, Alizarin Red S, and DCAF, have been administered sequentially to weanling rats and the rate of formation and resorption of bone measured from hard-ground cross sections of the upper third of the diaphysis of the femur. On a meat diet, bodily growth is significantly restricted for the first week and then recovery occurs. While bones grow they fail to mineralize normally and rapidly become fragile and rarefied. Resorption of bone is at first slow, then accelerates for a period of 2–3 weeks to about 15μ/day and then slows again. While the rate of bone formation is reduced relative to normal bone, resorption proceeds at approximately two to three times the rate of bone growth. Microradiographic studies confirm tht while resorption occurs on the endosteal margin and formation proceeds on the periosteal aspect of meat fed Ca-deficient rats, new bone is less calcified than that in control animals.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Moyennant und systèmein vitro dont la composition liquide fut variée nous avons pu faire grandir ou dissoudre des cristaux osseux. Ces changements qui se manifestent par des changements de la biréfrigence extrinsique du tissu osseux, ont été suivis à l'aide du microscope polarisant et aussi du microscope électronique. De même l'entrée de45Ca dans les cristaux a été mesurée dans certains cas. Les cristaux osseux sont hétérogènes quant à leur solubilité. Le produit de solubilité du minéral osseux, exprimé par la relationp [Ca]+p[P], est de 6.51±0.07 (σ) mesuré par la microscopie polarisante à l'instant où les changements furent les plus petits. Ce chiffre s'accorde avec les résultats des autres chercheurs qui ont mesuré la solubilité de la poudre osseuse par des autres méthodes. La solubilité des cristaux dans notre système varie inversement avec les concentrations des ions hydroxyliques ou fluors, mais varie directement avec la concentration des ions citriques.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Ein Systemin vitro ermöglichte es durch Veränderung der Zusammensetzung der umgebenden Lösung das Wachstum und die Auflösung von Knochenkristallen herbeizuführen. Die hervorgebrachten Veränderungen konnten dank der doppelbrechenden Eigenschaften des Knochengewebes mit dem Polarisationsmikroskop festgestellt werden. Diese Beobachtungen wurden durch Untersuchungen am Elektronenmikroskop und Bestimmungen der45Ca-Aufnahme gestützt. Die Knochenkristalle erwiesen sich als heterogen in bezug auf ihre Löslichkeit. Wenn die hervorgerufene Kristallveränderung im Polarisationsmikroskop minimal war, so entsprach das Gesamtlöslichkeitsprodukt des Knochenminerals, ausgedrückt als p[Ca]+p[P] 6,51±0,07 (S.D.). Diese Resultate bestätigten die Befunde anderer Forscher, welche die Knochenpulverlöslichkeit mittels konventioneller Methoden bestimmten. Die Löslichkeit der Kristalle bei diesem Systemin vitro variierte entgegengesetzt zur Hydroxyl- und Fluoridionenkonzentration, aber im gleichen Sinne wie die Citrationenkonzentration.
    Notes: Abstract Anin vitro system was used to induce growth and dissolution of bone crystals by manipulating the composition of their fluid environment. The induced changes could be detected with the polarizing microscope because of the extrinsic birefringence of the bone tissue. Supporting observations were made with the electron microscope and by determining45Ca uptake. The bone crystals were found to be heterogeneous with regard to their solubility. When induced crystal changes were minimal by polarization microscopy the overall solubility product of the bone mineral expressed asp [Ca]+p[P] was 6.51±0.07 (S.D.). This result corroborated the findings of other investigators who determined bone powder solubility by conventional methods. Solubility of the crystals in thein vitro system varied inversely with hydroxyl ion and fluoride ion concentration, but directly with citrate ion concentration.
