3D osteocyte lacunar morphometry of human bone biopsies with high resolution microCT: from monoclonal gammopathy to newly diagnosed multiple myeloma
Listed in Edmond
Osteocytes are mechanosensitive, bone-embedded cells which are connected via dendrites in a lacuno-canalicular network and regulate bone resorption and formation balance.
Description
Alterations in osteocyte lacunar volume, shape and density have been identified in conditions of aging, osteoporosis and osteolytic bone metastasis, indicating patterns of impaired bone remodeling, osteolysis and disease progression. Osteolytic bone disease is a hallmark of the hematologic malignancy multiple myeloma (MM), in which monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow disrupt the bone homeostasis and induce excessive resorption at local and distant sites.
Qualitative and quantitative changes in the 3D osteocyte lacunar morphometry have not yet been evaluated in MM, nor in the precursor conditions monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM). In this study, we characterized the osteocyte lacunar morphology in trabecular bone of the iliac crest at the ultrastructural level using high resolution microCT in human bone biopsy samples of three MGUS, two SMM and six newly diagnosed MM.

In MGUS, SMM and MM we found a trend for lower lacunar density and a shift towards larger lacunae with disease progression (higher 50 % cutoff of the lacunar volume cumulative distribution) in the small osteocyte lacunae 20–900 μm3 range compared to control samples. In the larger lacunae 900–3000 μm3 range, we detected significantly higher lacunar density and microporosity in the MM group compared to the MGUS/SMM group.
Regarding the shape distribution, the MGUS/SMM group showed a trend for flatter, more elongated and anisotropic osteocyte lacunae compared to the control group. Altogether, our findings suggest that osteocytes in human MM bone disease undergo changes in their lacunae density, volume and shape, which could be an indicator for osteolysis and disease progression. Future studies are needed to understand whether alterations of the lacunae architecture affect the mechanoresponsiveness of osteocytes, and ultimately bone adaptation and fracture resistance in MM and its precursors conditions.
