✦ Synopsis

The effects of sodium and potassium fluoride (NaF and KF) at concentrations ranging from 10(-7) to 10(-2) M for 12, 24, or 36 h on cultured rat bone marrow cells have been studied with respect to cytotoxicity and induction of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCE). At the three exposure times, cell survival progressively decreased with increasing concentrations. Treatment with 10(-2) M fluoride resulted in a statistically significant death (62-65%) of cells. Similarly, no dividing cells were encountered at concentrations of 10(-3) M and 10(-2) M, and significant reductions in mitotic index (MI) were calculated at 10(-4) M. In contrast, cell kinetics, expressed as cell proliferation index (CPI), revealed no significant inhibitory effect of fluoride on cell proliferation. Furthermore, the mean SCE score reached a maximum (7.64 SCE/cell) in the 24-h-treated cultures. This value was not significantly different from that observed in sodium chloride (NaCl) at 10(-2) M (5.42 SCE/cell) and distilled water (4.86 SCE/cell) controls. In comparison, mitomycin-C (MMC, positive control) at 5 x 10(-8) M caused an average of 22.13 SCE/cell. These results indicated an inhibition of cell division and death of cells with high doses of fluoride with no effect on SCE frequencies.

During bone loss, osteoblast population can be replaced by adipose tissue. This apparent reciprocal relationship between decreased bone density and increased fat formation can be explained by an imbalance in the production of bone-forming and fat-forming cells in the marrow cavity. Thus, osteoblast
