Outline of Final Research Achievements |
(1) To examine the influence of nicotine on ossification, a mouse bone restoration model was adopted. As the result performed after having maintained high density of internal nicotine for a long duration, the callus bridging formation was significantly worse than control group in two weeks. Additionally, few callus formation implied that the enchondral ossification was impaired. (2)We cultured the mouse thighbone and measured intraosseous pentosidine, one of AGEs. The result was that, not in α7nAchR knockout mouse (KO), but in wild type mouse (WT), pentosidine level was significantly higher in nicotine group, which indicated nicotine affects bone quality. (3)As a result of bone morphometry for WT and KO, in KO the bone density was significantly higher and osteoclasts were fewer. There was no difference in the histological examination of osteogenesis and chondrogenesis between them, by which it was supposed that α7nAchR activated osteoclasts in physiological bone metabolism.
