Abstrakt: A novel osteolytic disorder due to PFN1 mutation was discovered recently as early-onset Paget's disease of bone (PDB). Bone loss and pain in adult PDB patients have been treated using bisphosphonates. However, therapeutic strategies for this specific disorder have not been established. Here, we evaluated the efficiency of alendronate (ALN) on a mutant mouse line, recapitulating this disorder. Five-week-old conditional osteoclast-specific Pfn1-deficient mice (Pfn1-cKOOCL) and control littermates (33 females and 22 males) were injected with ALN (0.1 mg/kg) or vehicle twice weekly until 8 weeks of age. After euthanizing, bone histomorphometric parameters and skeletal deformities were analyzed using 3D μCT images and histological sections. Three weeks of ALN administration significantly improved bone mass at the distal femur, L3 vertebra, and nose in Pfn1-cKOOCL mice. Histologically increased osteoclasts with expanded distribution in the distal femur were normalized in these mice. Geometric bone shape analysis revealed a partial recovery from the distal femur deformity. A therapeutic dose of ALN from 5 to 8 weeks of age significantly improved systemic bone loss in Pfn1-cKOOCL mice and femoral bone deformity. Our study suggests that preventive treatment of bony deformity in early-onset PDB is feasible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
