The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of pretreatment with risedronate and/or vitamin K2 and treatment continuation with reduced dosing frequency of the drugs on the early cancellous bone loss induced by ovariectomy (OVX) in rats. Eighty female Sprague-Dawley rats, 4 mo of age, were randomized by the stratified weight method into eight groups (n=10 in each group); rats subjected to OVX, but not sham-operated rats, were treated with vehicle, risedronate, vitamin K2 (menatetrenone), or risedronate+vitamin K2 for 4 wk before the surgery, and the treatment was either discontinued (pretreatment groups) or continued after the surgery (treatment continuation groups) for 2 wk. Sham-operated rats (controls) were treated with the vehicle throughout the experimental period. During the 4 wk prior to the surgery (pretreatment), risedronate and vitamin K2 were administered five times a week either subcutaneously at a dose of 2.5 μg/kg body weight (risedronate) or orally at the dose of 30 mg/kg body weight (vitamin K2). During the 2 wk after the surgery (treatment continuation), the dosing frequency of the drugs was reduced to twice a week. Risedronate and vitamin K2 had an anti-resorptive effect on the bone. Pretreatment with risedronate alone, but not vitamin K2 alone, prevented the loss of the cancellous bone volume/total volume (BV/TV) of the proximal tibial metaphysis after OVX. Treatment continuation with vitamin K2 alone prevented the loss of the cancellous BV/TV after OVX, while treatment continuation with risedronate alone increased the cancellous BV/TV to beyond the values in controls. Pretreatment with risedronate+vitamin K2 had a more beneficial effect in increasing the cancellous bone mass than pretreatment with risedronate alone. Treatment continuation with risedronate and/or vitamin K2 appeared to have a more beneficial effect in increasing the cancellous bone mass than the respective pretreatment. Neither the total tissue area nor the cortical area of the tibial diaphysis was affected by any treatment. The present study demonstrated that pretreatment with risedronate had a beneficial effect on the early cancellous bone loss after OVX in rats, with a more beneficial effect when combined with vitamin K2. Moreover, even though the dosing frequency of the drugs was reduced after OVX, treatment continuation appeared to be more beneficial than pretreatment for increasing the cancellous bone mass.
