Local manganese chloride treatment accelerates fracture healing in a rat model

Abstract: This study investigated the effects of local delivery of manganese chloride (MnCl 2 ), an insulin-mimetic compound, upon fracture healing using a rat femoral fracture model. Mechanical testing, histomorphometry, and immunohistochemistry were performed to assess early and late parameters of fracture healing. At 4 weeks post-fracture, maximum torque to failure was 70% higher (P < 0.05) and maximum torsional rigidity increased 133% (P < 0.05) in animals treated with 0.125 mg/kg MnCl 2 compared to saline controls.… Show more

“…Manganese is associated with the maintenance of the bone structure and regulating bone metabolism. An accelerated bone fracture healing was observed in a rat model after being administered with local treatment of Mn 2+ [ 256 , 257 ]. These elements can be carefully chosen by considering their level of toxicity in the human body and their metallurgical role in forming an alloy's microstructure and dictating mechanical properties and degradation behavior.…”

“…In fact, a group reported a significant increase in the mechanical properties of bone, mineralized tissue formation and VEGF-expression in a rat femoral fracture model when manganese chloride (MnCl 2 ) was supplemented. Additionally, blood vessel density was dramatically increased by MnCl 2 treatment, suggesting increased vascularization, fracture healing and osteogenesis, implicating a potential function for manganese in tissue engineering [ 238 ].…”

“…Furthermore, local insulin therapy has been found to improve bone healing and cartilage formation in animal models (Dedania et al, ; Gandhi, Beam, O'Connor, Parsons, & Lin, ; Park et al, ). Other insulin mimetics, such as vanadyl acetylacetonate, magnesium chloride, and sodium tungstate, have been shown to improve the osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs; Schussler et al, ), bone healing (Hreha et al, ) and chondrogenic differentiation (Khader, Sherman, Rameshwar, & Arinzeh, ) respectively. Zinc supplementation in the cell culture medium has been shown to enhance mineralization and osteocalcin gene expression of MC3T3‐E1 osteoblasts (Nagata & Lonnerdal, ).…”
