The effects of Prostaglandin E2(PGE2) and Risedronate (Ris) both separately and in combination (PGE2+ Ris) were studied on the intact aged female rat skeleton to determine whether the combination of PGE2with an antiresorptive agent is more effective anabolically than PGE2alone. Ninemonth-old Sprague-Dawley rats were injected subcutaneously either with vehicle, 6 mg PGE2/kg per day, 1 or 5 μg Ris/kg twice a week, or 6 mg PGE2/kg per day plus 1 or 5 μg Ris/kg twice a week (PGE2+ 1 Ris or PGE2+ 5 Ris) for 60 days. After the treatment, we determined the longitudinal bone growth rate, the qualitative appearance of the primary spongiosa (PS), and the static and dynamic bone histomorphometry of the secondary spongiosa (SS) of the proximal tibial metaphysis (PTM) by examining undecalcified longitudinal sections after double-fluorescent labeling. The relative effects of these treatments on longitudinal bone growth were ranked as follows: PGE2+ 5 Ris > PGE2+ 1 Ris = basal > PGE2> 1 μg Ris = 5 μg Ris = aging. The density of the PS was ranked as follows: PGE2+ 5 Ris > PGE2+ 1 Ris = PGE2= 5 μg Ris = 1 μg Ris > basal = aging. The increase in density of the PS was the result of stimulated longitudinal growth and the action of bisphos + phonate. Bone mass in the SS was ranked as follows: PGE2+ 5 Ris = PGE2+ 1 Ris = PGE2> 5 μg Ris = 1 μg Ris = aging = basal. However, PGE2alone and its cotreatment with Ris accumulated bone by different tissue mechanisms. PGE2alone created new bone by increasing activation frequency 8.3-fold and the formation to resorption ratio 1.3-fold from the controls. The combination of PGE2and Ris depressed activation frequency (−54% to −74%), and bone formation rate (tissue-based −31%, and bone-based −42%) and eroded surface (−79% to −81%), so as to increase the formation to resorption ratio (three- to four-fold) over PGE2alone. The increased ratio was due primarily to a greater decrease in eroded perimeter than in labeled perimeter. The major finding of this study is that the combination of PGE2and a bisphosphonate (Ris) is more anabolic than PGE2or Ris alone when endochondral ossification is active, but PGE2+ Ris is no more anabolic than PGE2alone in old bone without endochondral ossification. However, the tissue mechanisms by which PGE2alone and PGE2+ Ris treatments accumulated bone differed in that the latter allowed the same bone mass to accumulate with lower levels of cell recruitment and activity.
