Twelve-month-old rats were OVX, remained untreated for 8 weeks, and subsequently received daily subcutaneous (SC) injections of rhGH (75 \u03bc\/day), rhIGF-I (250 \u03bcg\/day), E2 (1.5 \u03bcg\/day), and their respective combinations during 8 weeks, and were then compared with sham-operated, pretreatment OVX, and saline-treated OVX rats. A single sc injection of rhGH resulted in peak hGH concentrations after 90 minutes, with a half-life of 124 minutes; the highest plasma IGF-I concentrations were reached 45 minutes after rhIGF-I injection (+57% vs. baseline) with a gradual decline thereafter. Measurements included: biochemical parameters of bone remodeling (plasma osteocalcin and urinary pyridinolines); histomorphometry of proximal tibial metaphysis; DXA of femur; biomechanical analysis of femur and fifth lumbar vertebra (L5); plasma 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), and calbindin-D9K in duodenal mucosa. Whereas all E2-treated OVX rats had much suppressed bone remodeling, rhGH or rhIGF-I had no effect on any biochemical or histomorphometrical parameter of remodeling. The bone mineral density (BMD) at the distal femoral metaphysis as well as parameters of strength at L5 were maintained at pretreatment values in OVX rats treated with E2, GH, or IGF-I, but not in saline-treated OVX rats; their effects were not additive, however. Trabecular bone volume in the tibial metaphysis was also higher in rats treated with these agents than in saline-treated rats, but this was more apparent at the primary than at the secondary spongiosa, suggesting that their mechanism of action is on primary spongiosa formation or breakdown. E2 alone was ineffective to augment the BMD at the femoral diaphysis; however, the diaphyseal BMD was 12\u201314% higher (p &amp;lt; 0.01) after 8 weeks of GH treatment than in pretreatment or saline-treated OVX rats and sham-operated rats, while IGF-I was less effective than GH. GH or IGF-I treatment had no effect on plasma 1,25(OH)2D3 or duodenal calbindin-D9K concentrations, but the combination of GH or IGF-I with E2 potentiated the effect of E2 to stimulate calbindin-D9K concentrations and urinary calcium excretion, indicating \u201chyperabsorption hypercalciuria\u201d. In conclusion, the administration of rhGH and rhIGF-I, like that of E2, into aged OVX rats prevents further loss of bone mass and strength at sites containing trabecular bone. In addition, rhGH increases cortical bone mass above pretreatment values.
