    Effects of bisphosphonates on sutural bone formation and relapse: A histologic and immunohistochemical study
    (Mosby-Elsevier, 2011) Ozturk, Firat; Babacan, Hasan; Inan, Sevinc; Gumus, Cesur
    Introduction: The aim of this experimental study was to evaluate the effects of systemically applied zoledronic acid on bone regeneration in response to expansion of the sagittal suture and relapse in rats. Methods: Thirty-six male Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups. In the first and second groups, saline solution was given subcutaneously after expansion, and the retention periods lasted 14 and 7 days, respectively. In the third group, 0.1 mg of zoledronic acid was diluted with saline solution and given subcutaneously after expansion; the retention period lasted for 7 days. Expansion and relapse amounts were measured by using computed tomography. After the retention period, 6 rats from each group were killed for histologic and immunohistochemical assessments. The other 6 rats from each group were used for observation of the relapse. Results: The histologic evaluation showed that, in groups 1 and 2, the numbers of osteoblasts were less than observed in group 3. When scores of staining intensity were compared, immunoreactivities were statistically significantly increased in group 3 compared with groups 2 and 1. Statistically significant differences were found when the relapse percentages were compared between the groups (P < 0.05). The smallest relapse occurred in group 3. Conclusions: Zoledronic acid has positive effects on bone formation in the sagittal suture in response to expansion and decreases the relapse ratio after expansion in rats.

    Effects of zoledronic acid on sutural bone formation: a computed tomography study
    (Oxford Univ Press, 2012) Ozturk, Firat; Babacan, Hasan; Gumus, Cesur
    The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of systemically applied zoledronic acid (ZA) on osteoblastic bone formation and relapse in the rat sagittal suture after expansion. Eighteen 12-week-old male Wistar rats were divided into three groups. In groups 1 and 2, a saline solution was given subcutaneously after expansion and the retention period lasted for 14 and 7 days, respectively. In group 3, 0.1 mg of ZA was diluted with saline and given subcutaneously after expansion: the retention period lasted for 7 days. Computed tomography (CT) measurements were obtained at the start of the study (T1), after expansion (T2), after the retention period (T3), and after the follow-up period (T4). The amount of expansion and relapse and the density of the newly formed bone in the expansion area were measured. The mean bone density values in hounsfield unit (HU) of the newly formed bone were recorded using MX View Workstation. Data were analysed using the Kruskal-Wallis, Friedman, Wilcoxon, and Mann-Whitney U-tests. The results showed that there were significant differences between the groups in the density of newly formed bone after the retention period (P < 0.05). Statistically significant differences were observed when the relapse percentages were compared between the groups (P < 0.05). ZA stimulated bone formation and decreased the relapse ratio after expansion in the rat sagittal suture.
