This volume is designed to provide an understanding of current and potential therapies for osteoporosis. The opening chapter introduces the cells of bone and their interactions. Several following chapters describe factors affecting bone including systemic hormones with significant effects on bone, and local mediators including growth factors, prostaglandins, cytokines and chemokines. Topics that have commanded particular attention recently are calcium, FGF-23, nervous system bone interactions. Drugs that cause bone loss provide important information on mechanism as well as therapeutic considerations. An overview of the genetics of bone disorders and a discussion of the pathophysiology of osteoporosis establish the clinical context. The final chapters discuss current and potential osteoporosis treatments.

Osteoporosis, a growing epidemic among women in North America, Europe, and Japan, is a painful, costly disease that has presented a treatment challenge to healthcare professionals. Until recently, therapies have focused on agents that slow bone resorption, and have had only limited success at increasing bone mass.

Calvaria dissected from 6-day-old mice were maintained in organ culture in a chemically-defined medium without serum additives. Bone resorption was quantified by the release of 45Ca or hydroxyproline (Hyp) into the medium. Collagen synthesis (Hyp) in bone was estimated by the incorporation of [5-3H]-proline. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), prostaglandin F (PGF) and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1a (6-keto-PGF1a) released into the medium from cultured calvaria, were measured by radioimmunoassay. Prostanoids were also quantified by the release of radioactively-labelled metabolites from calvaria pre-labelled in vitro with [3H]-arachidonic acid. These metabolites were separated by high performance liquid chromatography.
