β-Arrestin2 Regulates the Differential Response of Cortical and Trabecular Bone to Intermittent PTH in Female Mice

Abstract: Cytoplasmic arrestins regulate PTH signaling in vitro. We show that female ␤-arrestin2 −/− mice have decreased bone mass and altered bone architecture. The effects of intermittent PTH administration on bone microarchitecture differed in ␤-arrestin2 −/− and wildtype mice. These data indicate that arrestinmediated regulation of intracellular signaling contributes to the differential effects of PTH at endosteal and periosteal bone surfaces.Introduction: The effects of PTH differ at endosteal and periosteal surfac… Show more

“…At clinically relevant doses, indeed (i.e., less than 40 μg·kg·d in mice and 20 μg/d in humans), PTH exerts relatively modest (if any) bone anabolic effects on the periosteum, contrasting with its strong endocortical anabolism (34)(35)(36). The latter is largely explained by the fact that activation of osteoblast lining cells is potentiated by key growth factors and clastokines normally released at bone resorbing surfaces.…”

“…We assessed trabecular and cortical bone architecture at week 8 using micro-CT (CT40, Scanco Medical AG, Basserdorf, Switzerland), employing a 12 m isotropic voxel size. Specifically, trabecular bone architecture as well as cortical width (as the mean of the whole section) were evaluated at the 5th lumbar vertebra and distal femoral metaphysis, whereas cortical bone morphology was evaluated at the femoral mid-shaft, as previously described (33,34).…”

“…Quantitative microcomputed tomography (μCT40, Scanco Medical AG, Basserdorf, Switzerland) was used ex vivo to assess three-dimensional (3D) trabecular bone morphology in the 5 th lumbar vertebrae and distal femoral metaphysis and cortical bone geometry at the mid-femoral diaphysis using an 12 μm isotropic voxel size [2,3]. Morphometric variables were computed from the binarized images using direct, three-dimensional techniques that do not rely on any prior assumptions about the underlying structure [8][9][10].…”
