Alteration of the Condylar Oral Bone in Obese and Gastric Bypass Mice.

ABSTRACT: Obesity is the main cause of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is an effective treatment for this obesity-related health problem. However, the adverse effects of T2DM on bone tissue persist or even aggravate after this surgical procedure. As studies on the mandibular condyle bone are scarce, the aim of the present study was to assess its compositional characteristics in T2DM and RYGB conditions. Thirty-two male C57BL/6 mice at 8 weeks of age were randomly assigned to receive either a high-fat or low-fat diet. After 14 weeks of high-fat diet intake, seven obese mice were subjected to RYGB surgery. All animals were euthanized at the age of 30 weeks. Mandibular bones were removed and the trabecular condyle region was assessed using Raman spectroscopy. A decreased mineralization was observed for both T2DM and RYGB condyle bones when compared to controls, with elevated carbonate substitutions for the RYGB group. No compositional differences in crystallinity and presence of advanced glycation end products were found between the groups, with the exception of an increased presence of N-carboxymethyl-lysine in RYGB bone compared to their T2DM counterpart. Site-specific measurements revealed a non-uniform bone composition, with increasing mineralization and carbonate substitutions towards the centre of the mandibular condyle. T2DM and RYGB surgery affect the mandibular condyle bone quality, as investigated at compositional level. Assessment of bone structural properties and remodelling should be carried out to further explore the effects of T2DM and RYGB surgery on this skeleton area.

Project description:Roux-en Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is an effective treatment for obesity; however, it may negatively impact skeletal health by increasing fracture risk. This increase may be the result not only of decreased bone mineral density but also of changes in bone microstructure, for example, increased cortical porosity. Increased tibial and radial cortical porosity of patients undergoing RYGB surgery has been observed as early as 6 months postoperatively; however, local microstructural changes and associated biological mechanisms driving this increase remain unclear. To provide insight, we studied the spatial distribution of cortical porosity in 42 women and men (aged 46 ± 12 years) after RYGB surgery. Distal tibias and radii were evaluated with high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) preoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively. Laminar analysis was used to determine cortical pore number and size within the endosteal, midcortical, and periosteal layers of the cortex. Paired t tests were used to compare baseline versus follow-up porosity parameters in each layer. Mixed models were used to compare longitudinal changes in laminar analysis outcomes between layers. We found that the midcortical (0.927 ± 0.607 mm-2 to 1.069 ± 0.654 mm-2 , p = 0.004; 0.439 ± 0.293 mm-2 to 0.509 ± 0.343 mm-2 , p = 0.03) and periosteal (0.642 ± 0.412 mm-2 to 0.843 ± 0.452 mm-2 , p < 0.0001; 0.171 ± 0.101 mm-2 to 0.230 ± 0.160 mm-2 , p = 0.003) layers underwent the greatest increases in porosity over the 12-month period at the distal tibia and radius, respectively. The endosteal layer, which had the greatest porosity at baseline, did not undergo significant porosity increase over the same period (1.234 ± 0.402 mm-2 to 1.259 ± 0.413 mm-2 , p = 0.49; 0.584 ± 0.290 mm-2 to 0.620 ± 0.299 mm-2 , p = 0.35) at the distal tibia and radius, respectively. An alternative baseline-mapping approach for endosteal boundary definition confirmed that cortical bone loss was not primarily endosteal. These findings indicate that increases in cortical porosity happen in regions distant from the endosteal surface, suggesting that the underlying mechanism driving the increase in cortical porosity is not merely endosteal trabecularization. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).
