The accumulation of marrow adipose tissue (MAT) is frequently associated with bone loss. Although anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury induces bone loss, MAT accumulation after ACL injury has not been evaluated. In addition, no information about changes in MAT after ACL reconstruction is available. In this study, we aimed to examine (1) the effects of ACL transection on the amounts of trabecular bone and MAT present, and (2) whether ACL reconstruction inhibits the changes in the trabecular bone and MAT that are induced by ACL transection. ACL transection alone or with immediate reconstruction was performed on the right knees of rats. Untreated left knees were used as controls. Histomorphological changes in the trabecular bone and MAT in the proximal tibial epiphysis were examined prior to surgery and at one, four, and 12 weeks postsurgery. The trabecular bone area on the untreated side increased in a time-dependent manner. However, after ACL transection, the trabecular bone area did not increase during the experimental period, indicating dysgenesis of the bone (bone loss). Dysgenesis of the trabecular bone after ACL transection was attenuated by ACL reconstruction. MAT accumulation due to adipocyte hyperplasia and hypertrophy had been induced by ACL transection by four weeks postsurgery. This ACL transection-induced MAT accumulation was not prevented by ACL reconstruction. Based on these results, we conclude that (1) dysgenesis of the bone in the proximal tibia following ACL transection is accompanied by MAT accumulation, and (2) ACL reconstruction attenuates dysgenesis of the trabecular bone but cannot prevent MAT accumulation.
