[PMID: 39049966 PMCID: PMC11266958 DOI: 10.1002/mco2.657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Revised: 06/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
As a highly dynamic tissue, bone is continuously rebuilt throughout life. Both bone formation by osteoblasts and bone resorption by osteoclasts constitute bone reconstruction homeostasis. The equilibrium of bone homeostasis is governed by many complicated signaling pathways that weave together to form an intricate network. These pathways coordinate the meticulous processes of bone formation and resorption, ensuring the structural integrity and dynamic vitality of the skeletal system. Dysregulation of the bone homeostatic regulatory signaling network contributes to the development and progression of many skeletal diseases. Significantly, imbalanced bone homeostasis further disrupts the signaling network and triggers a cascade reaction that exacerbates disease progression and engenders a deleterious cycle. Here, we summarize the influence of signaling pathways on bone homeostasis, elucidating the interplay and crosstalk among them. Additionally, we review the mechanisms underpinning bone homeostatic imbalances across diverse disease landscapes, highlighting current and prospective therapeutic targets and clinical drugs. We hope that this review will contribute to a holistic understanding of the signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms sustaining bone homeostasis, which are promising to contribute to further research on bone homeostasis and shed light on the development of targeted drugs.

Efficacy and safety of candidate biosimilar CT-P41 versus reference denosumab: a double-blind, randomized, active-controlled, Phase 3 trial in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Osteoporos Int 2024:10.1007/s00198-024-07161-x. [PMID: 39042292 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-024-07161-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024]
Abstract
This 78-week (18-month) study conducted in 479 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis evaluated the efficacy, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, safety, and immunogenicity of candidate biosimilar CT-P41 relative to US reference denosumab. CT-P41 had equivalent efficacy and pharmacodynamics to US-denosumab, with similar pharmacokinetics and comparable safety and immunogenicity profiles. PURPOSE To demonstrate equivalence of candidate biosimilar CT-P41 and US reference denosumab (US-denosumab) in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. METHODS This 78-week (18-month), double-blind, randomized, active-controlled Phase 3 study (NCT04757376) comprised two treatment periods (TPs). In TPI, patients (N = 479) were randomized 1:1 to 60 mg subcutaneous CT-P41 or US-denosumab. At Week 52, those who had received CT-P41 in TPI continued to do so. Those who had received US-denosumab were randomized (1:1) to continue treatment or switch to CT-P41 in TPII. The primary efficacy endpoint was percent change from baseline in lumbar spine bone mineral density at Week 52. Efficacy equivalence was concluded if associated 95% confidence intervals (CI) for least squares (LS) mean group differences fell within ± 1.503%. The primary pharmacodynamic (PD) endpoint was area under the effect curve for serum carboxy-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen through the first 26 weeks, with an equivalence margin of 80-125% (for 95% CIs associated with geometric LS mean ratios). RESULTS Equivalence was demonstrated for CT-P41 and US-denosumab with respect to primary efficacy (LS mean difference [95% CI]: - 0.139 [- 0.826, 0.548] in the full analysis set and - 0.280 [- 0.973, 0.414] in the per-protocol set) and PD (geometric LS mean ratio [95% CI]: 94.94 [90.75, 99.32]) endpoints. Secondary efficacy, PD, pharmacokinetics, and safety results were comparable among all groups up to Week 78, including after transitioning to CT-P41 from US-denosumab. CONCLUSIONS CT-P41 was equivalent to US-denosumab in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, with respect to primary efficacy and PD endpoints.

Abstract
Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a progressive inflammatory disease with an increasing global prevalence. In recent years, a strong association between CP and metabolic bone diseases (MBDs), especially osteoporosis, has been identified, attracting significant attention in the research field. Epidemiological data suggest a rising trend in the incidence of MBDs among CP patients. Notably, recent studies have highlighted a profound interplay between CP and altered nutritional and immune profiles, offering insights into its linkage with MBDs. At the molecular level, CP introduces a series of biochemical disturbances that compromise bone homeostasis. One critical observation is the disrupted metabolism of vitamin D and vitamin K, both essential micronutrients for maintaining bone integrity, in CP patients. In this review, we provide physio-pathological perspectives on the development and mechanisms of CP-related MBDs. We also outline some of the latest therapeutic strategies for treating patients with CP-associated MBDs, including stem cell transplantation, monoclonal antibodies, and probiotic therapy. In summary, CP-associated MBDs represent a rising medical challenge, involving multiple tissues and organs, complex disease mechanisms, and diverse treatment approaches. More in-depth studies are required to understand the complex interplay between CP and MBDs to facilitate the development of more specific and effective therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this literature review was to determine if medications used to treat osteoporosis are also effective for treating osteoarthritis (OA). RECENT FINDINGS A total of 40 relevant articles were identified. Studies were categorized into those (1) discussing estrogen and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs), (2) bisphosphonates, (3) parathyroid hormone (PTH) analogs, and (4) denosumab, and (5) prior review articles. A large amount of evidence suggests that estrogen and SERMs are effective at reducing OA symptoms and disease progression. Evidence suggests that bisphosphonates, the most common medications used to treat osteoporosis, can reduce OA symptoms and disease progression. In vivo studies suggest that PTH analogs may improve the cartilage destruction associated with OA; however, few human trials have examined its use for OA. Denosumab is approved to treat osteoporosis, bone metastases, and certain types of breast cancer, but little study has been done with respect to its effect on OA. The current evidence indicates that medications used to treat osteoporosis are also effective for treating OA. Estrogen, SERMs, and bisphosphonates have the most potential as OA therapies. Less is known regarding the effectiveness of PTH analogs and denosumab in OA, and more research is needed.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, a metabolic bone disease characterized by low bone mineral density and deterioration of bone microarchitecture, has led to a high risk of fatal osteoporotic fractures worldwide. Accumulating evidence has revealed that sexual dimorphism is a notable feature of osteoporosis, with sex-specific differences in epidemiology and pathogenesis. Specifically, females are more susceptible than males to osteoporosis, while males are more prone to disability or death from the disease. To date, sex chromosome abnormalities and steroid hormones have been proven to contribute greatly to sexual dimorphism in osteoporosis by regulating the functions of bone cells. Understanding the sex-specific differences in osteoporosis and its related complications is essential for improving treatment strategies tailored to women and men. This literature review focuses on the mechanisms underlying sexual dimorphism in osteoporosis, mainly in a population of aging patients, chronic glucocorticoid administration, and diabetes. Moreover, we highlight the implications of sexual dimorphism for developing therapeutics and preventive strategies and screening approaches tailored to women and men. Additionally, the challenges in translating bench research to bedside treatments and future directions to overcome these obstacles will be discussed.

Abstract
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is an intractable condition caused by drugs such as bisphosphonates and denosumab. This study investigated the changes in the incidence of MRONJ in the previous 10 years and examined the poor prognostic factors during surgery in at-risk patients. We compared 57 and 64 patients diagnosed with MRONJ at our hospital between January 2012 and December 2016 and January 2017 and December 2021, respectively. The disease stage and triggers at the time of initial diagnosis in eligible patients were investigated. Additionally, the adverse prognostic factors were examined in 166 patients at risk of MRONJ who underwent tooth extraction at our department during these 10 years. The results indicated that there was no change in the proportion of patients with osteoporosis and malignancy among those with MRONJ. The number of cases after tooth extraction decreased, and those after dental infections increased on comparing the recent 5 years and the preceding 5 years. The number of MRONJ patients receiving denosumab also increased. Denosumab was a significant post-extraction prognostic factor for delayed healing in the 166 patients at risk of MRONJ. The findings suggest that patients receiving denosumab should be closely monitored when undergoing surgery to prevent MRONJ.

Abstract
Background Osteoporosis is a chronic and systemic skeletal disease that is defined by low bone mineral density (BMD) along with an increase in bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture. This study aimed to overview clinical evidence on the use of herbal medicine for management of osteoporosis. Methods Electronic databases including Pubmed, Medline, Cochrane library, and Scopus were searched until November 2022 for any clinical studies on the efficacy and/or safety of plant-derived medicines in the management of osteoporosis. Results The search yielded 57 results: 19 on single herbs, 16 on multi-component herbal preparations, and 22 on plant-derived secondary metabolites. Risk of fracture, bone alkaline phosphatase, BMD, and specific bone biomarkers are investigated outcomes in these studies. Medicinal plants including Acanthopanax senticosus, Actaea racemosa, Allium cepa, Asparagus racemosus, Camellia sinensis, Cissus quadrangularis, Cornus mas, Nigella sativa, Olea europaea, Opuntia ficus-indica, Pinus pinaster, Trifolium pretense and phytochemicals including isoflavones, ginsenoside, Epimedium prenyl flavonoids, tocotrienols are among plant-derived medicines clinically investigated on osteoporosis. It seems that multi-component herbal preparations were more effective than single-component ones; because of the synergistic effects of their constituents. The investigated herbal medicines demonstrated their promising results in osteoporosis via targeting different pathways in bone metabolism, including balancing osteoblasts and osteoclasts, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and estrogen-like functions. Conclusion It seems that plant-derived medicines have beneficial effects on bone and may manage osteoporosis by affecting different targets and pathways involved in osteoporosis; However, Future studies are needed to confirm the effectiveness and safety of these preparations.

Abstract
Excessive bone resorption is one of the main causes of bone homeostasis alterations, resulting in an imbalance in the natural remodeling cycle. This imbalance can cause diseases such as osteoporosis, or it can be exacerbated in bone cancer processes. In such cases, there is an increased risk of fractures requiring a prosthesis. In the present study, a titanium implant subjected to gallium (Ga)-doped thermochemical treatment was evaluated as a strategy to reduce bone resorption and improve osteodifferentiation. The suitability of the material to reduce bone resorption was proven by inducing macrophages (RAW 264.7) to differentiate to osteoclasts on Ga-containing surfaces. In addition, the behavior of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) was studied in terms of cell adhesion, morphology, proliferation, and differentiation. The results proved that the Ga-containing calcium titanate layer is capable of inhibiting osteoclastogenesis, hypothetically by inducing ferroptosis. Furthermore, Ga-containing surfaces promote the differentiation of hMSCs into osteoblasts. Therefore, Ga-containing calcium titanate may be a promising strategy for patients with fractures resulting from an excessive bone resorption disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of platelet factor 4 (PF4) on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) and osteoporosis is poorly understood. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of PF4-triggered bone destruction in mice and determine the underlying mechanism. METHODS First, in vitro cell proliferation and cell cycle of BMMSCs were assessed using a CCK8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Osteogenic differentiation was confirmed using staining and quantification of alkaline phosphatase and Alizarin Red S. Next, an osteoporotic mouse model was established by performing bilateral ovariectomy (OVX). Furthermore, the PF4 concentrations were obtained using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The bone microarchitecture of the femur was evaluated using microCT and histological analyses. Finally, the key regulators of osteogenesis and pathways were investigated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting. RESULTS Human PF4 widely and moderately decreased the cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation ability of BMMSCs. Furthermore, the levels of PF4 in the serum and bone marrow were generally increased, whereas bone microarchitecture deteriorated due to OVX. Moreover, in vivo mouse PF4 supplementation triggered bone deterioration of the femur. In addition, several key regulators of osteogenesis were downregulated, and the integrin α5-focal adhesion kinase-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ITGA5-FAK-ERK) pathway was inhibited due to PF4 supplementation. CONCLUSIONS PF4 may be attributed to OVX-induced bone loss triggered by the suppression of bone formation in vivo and alleviate BMMSC osteogenic differentiation by inhibiting the ITGA5-FAK-ERK pathway.

Comput Struct Biotechnol J 2023; 21:5650-5661. [PMID: 38047233 PMCID: PMC10692617 DOI: 10.1016/j.csbj.2023.11.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Raised life expectancy and aging of the general population are associated with an increased concern for fragility fractures due to factors such as osteoporosis, reduced bone density, and an higher risk of falls. Among these, the most frequent are vertebral compression fractures (VCF), which can be clinically occult. Once the diagnosis is made, generally thorough antero-posterior and lateral views of the affected spine at the radiographs, a comprehensive workup to assess the presence of a metabolic bone disease or secondary causes of osteoporosis and bone frailty is required. Treatment uses a multimodal management consisting of a combination of brace, pain management, bone metabolism evaluation, osteoporosis medication and has recently incorporated biophysical stimulation, a noninvasive technique that uses induced electric stimulation to improve bone recovery through the direct and indirect upregulation of bone morphogenic proteins, stimulating bone formation and remodeling. It contributes to the effectiveness of the therapy, promoting accelerated healing, supporting the reduction of bed rest and pain medications, improving patients' quality of life, and reducing the risk to undergo surgery in patients affected by VCFs. Therefore, the aim of this review is to outline the fundamental concepts of multimodal treatment for VCF, as well as the present function and significance of biophysical stimulation in the treatment of VCF patients.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic bone disease characterized by low bone mass, microarchitectural deterioration, increased bone fragility, and fracture susceptibility. It commonly occurs in older people, especially postmenopausal women. As global ageing increases, osteoporosis has become a global burden. There are a number of medications available for the treatment of osteoporosis, categorized as anabolic and anti-resorptive. Unfortunately, there is no drugs which have dual influence on bone, while all drugs have limitations and adverse events. Some serious adverse events include jaw osteonecrosis and atypical femoral fracture. Recently, a novel medication has appeared that challenges this pattern. Romosozumab is a novel drug monoclonal antibody to sclerostin encoded by the SOST gene. It has been used in Japan since 2019 and has achieved promising results in treating osteoporosis. However, it is also accompanied by some controversy. While it promotes rapid bone growth, it may cause serious adverse events such as cardiovascular diseases. There has been scepticism about the drug since its inception. Therefore, the present review comprehensively covered romosozumab from its inception to its clinical application, from animal studies to human studies, and from safety to cost. We hope to provide a better understanding of romosozumab for its clinical application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of new strategies to inhibit and/or treat osteoporosis as a chronic systemic disease is one of the most crucial topics. The present study aimed to investigate the simultaneous effects of calcium fluoride nanoparticles (CaF2 NPs) and lactobacillus reuteri ATCC PTA 6475 (L. reuteri) against osteoporosis in an ovariectomized rat model (OVX). METHODS In this study, 18 matured Wistar female rats were randomly assigned into 6 groups, including control, OVX, sham, OVX + L. reuteri, OVX + CaF2 NPs, and OVX + L. reuteri + CaF2 NPs. We used OVX rats to simulate post-menopausal osteoporosis, and the treatments were begun two weeks before OVX and continued for four weeks. All groups' blood samples were collected, and serum biomarkers (estrogen, calcium, vitamin D3, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)) were measured. The tibia and Femur lengths of all groups were measured. Histopathological slides of tibia, kidney, and liver tissues were analyzed using the Hematoxylin and Eosin staining method. RESULTS Our results revealed that dietary supplementation of L. reuteri and CaF2 NPs in low doses for 6 weeks did not show adverse effects in kidney and liver tissues. The tibial and femoral lengths of OVX rats as well as the population of osteoblasts and osteocytes and newly generated osteoid in the tibia remarkably increased in the combination therapy group. Moreover, there was a significant increase in serum estrogen levels and a significant decrease in serum calcium and alkaline phosphatase levels in combination treatment groups compared to the OVX groups not receiving the diet. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest the favorable effects of the simultaneous supplementation of L. reuteri and CaF2 NP to reduce post-menopausal bone loss.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hepatotoxicity is observed due to cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK4/6) inhibitors used to treat hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer. However, it should not be ignored that denosumab may be hepatotoxic, although it is rare. CASE REPORT A 73-year-old female patient with breast cancer with axillary lymph node, adrenal gland and bone metastases was started on ribociclib letrozole and denosumab treatment. Ribociclib treatment was discontinued due to grade 4 hepatotoxicity during treatment, but liver function tests did not decrease. After discontinuation of denosumab treatment, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase values regressed to baseline values. MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOME Despite the discontinuation of ribociclib treatment, other causes of liver toxicity were investigated due to persistence of hepatic transaminases and elevation. Autoimmune hepatitis markers were negative. Hepatobiliary USG did not reveal any pathological findings except hepatosteatosis. Liver biopsy was performed to determine the etiology. Pathology result was compatible with acute hepatocellular damage (in favor of toxic hepatitis). A decrease in liver values was detected after discontinuation of denosumab treatment. DISCUSSION Although cases with improvement in liver enzymes have been reported after discontinuation of ribociclib, no improvement in hepatotoxicity was observed in our case. Since the liver biopsy was toxic hepatitis, it was thought that other drugs used by the patient might cause this toxicity, and a significant decrease was observed in liver values after discontinuation of denosumab. Denosumab-induced liver toxicity is very rare, and there are only a limited number of cases in the literature.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteoporosis, which is characterized by compromised bone density and heightened susceptibility to fractures, is a substantial public health concern, especially among the aging population. Underdiagnosis, undertreatment, and therapy non-adherence contribute to its impact. Anabolic and dual-action agents like teriparatide, abaloparatide, and romosozumab have emerged as effective treatments, allowing rapid gains in bone mineral density (BMD) and reducing fracture risk. However, administering treatments in the correct order is paramount, with an 'anabolic first' approach gaining traction for patients at high risk of fractures. This strategy involves starting anabolic therapies, followed by antiresorptive agents as maintenance therapy. It is important to note that the effectiveness of anabolic agents differs between treatment-naive and previously treated patients: tailored treatment approaches are therefore necessary. This comprehensive strategy adheres to clinical guidelines, emphasizing individualized care, early intervention, and patient-centered management to mitigate the burden of osteoporosis and enhance patients' quality of life. AREA COVERED The aim of this review is to summarize recent evidence on the sequential treatment of osteoporosis and to provide recommendations on the best treatment strategies. EXPERT OPINION Effective treatments, such as anabolic agents, are key in high-risk patients, who require an 'anabolic first' approach. Sequential therapy, specifically tailored to a patient's history, can help to optimize prevention and management of fractures.

Abstract
Immunotherapy is a treatment modality that has a broad and rapidly growing range of applications to treat both chronic and acute diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn disease, cancer, and COVID-19. Emergency physicians must be aware of the breadth of applications and be able to consider the effects of immunotherapies when patients on these treatments present to the hospital. This article provides a review of the mechanisms of action, indications for use, and potential complications of immunotherapy treatments that are relevant in the emergency care setting.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a genetically heterogeneous connective tissue disorder characterized by bone fragility and different extra-skeletal manifestations. The severity of these manifestations makes it possible to classify OI into different subtypes based on the main clinical features. This review aims to outline and describe the current pharmacological alternatives for treating OI, grounded on clinical and preclinical reports, such as antiresorptive agents, anabolic agents, growth hormone, and anti-TGFβ antibody, among other less used agents. The different options and their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties will be reviewed and discussed, focusing on the variability of their response and the molecular mechanisms involved to attain the main clinical goals, which include decreasing fracture incidence, improving pain, and promoting growth, mobility, and functional independence.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an inherited skeletal disorder that leads to bone fragility and multiple fractures. Given advances in the genetic understanding of existing phenotypes and newly discovered mutations, therapeutic management of OI has become challenging. Denosumab, a monoclonal antibody that inhibits the interaction between the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) and its receptor RANK, has been approved to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis and emerged as an important therapy for malignancies and other skeletal disorders, including pediatric skeletal conditions such as OI. This review summarizes information about denosumab therapy in OI by exploring its mechanisms of action, main indications, and safety and efficacy. Several case reports and small series have been published about the short-term use of denosumab in children with OI. Denosumab was considered a strong drug candidate for OI patients with bone fragility and a high risk of fracture, particularly for patients with the bisphosphonate (BP)-unresponsive OI-VI subtype. The evidence for denosumab's effects in children with OI indicates that it effectively improves bone mineral density but not fracture rates. A decrease in bone resorption markers was observed after each treatment. Safety was assessed by tracking the effects on calcium homeostasis and reporting side effects. No severe adverse effects were reported. Hypercalciuria and moderate hypercalcemia were reported, suggesting that BPs be used to prevent the bone rebound effect. In other words, denosumab can be used as a targeted intervention in children with OI. The posology and administration protocol require more investigation to achieve secure efficiency.

Abstract
Chronic liver disease (CLD), including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its advanced form, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), affects a significant portion of the population worldwide. NAFLD is characterised by fat accumulation in the liver, while NASH is associated with inflammation and liver damage. Osteosarcopenia, which combines muscle and bone mass loss, is an emerging clinical problem in chronic liver disease that is often underappreciated. The reductions in muscle and bone mass share several common pathophysiological pathways; insulin resistance and chronic systemic inflammation are the most crucial predisposing factors and are related to the presence and gravity of NAFLD and to the worsening of the outcome of liver disease. This article explores the relationship between osteosarcopenia and NAFLD/MAFLD, focusing on the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of this condition in patients with CLD.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disorder characterized by excessive osteoclastic bone resorption and impaired osteoblastic bone formation. Traditional delivery of antiresorptive drugs lacks a specific biodistribution in the body and may cause adverse effects to the patients. In this study, the peptide BTRM is first synthesized consisting of the bone-targeting peptide Asp8 (BT) and the peptide derived from the amino acid sequences of RANK Motif2/3 (RM), two cytoplasmic RANK motifs (PVQEET560-565 and PVQEQG604-609) that have been reported to play an important role in osteoclastogenesis. Then, BTRM is conjugated on the plant virus-like nanoparticles (VNPs) obtained from cowpea chlorotic mottle viruses (CCMVs), forming the engineered plant viruses BTRM-VNPs. In vitro experiments demonstrate that BTRM-VNPs can effectively and safely inhibit osteoclast differentiation and function. Moreover, after injection into ovariectomized mice, BTRM-VNPs show excellent capability to target bone tissue and improve osteoporotic bone loss. Collectively, the findings may provide a novel and promising strategy in the treatment of osteoporotic defects via targeting bone tissue and regulating the function of RANK Motif2/3.

[PMID: 36628511 PMCID: PMC10073968 DOI: 10.4235/agmr.22.0139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 12/28/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteosarcopenia, a combination of osteopenia/osteoporosis and sarcopenia, is a common condition among older adults. While numerous studies and meta-analyses have been conducted on the treatment of osteoporosis, the pharmacological treatment of osteosarcopenia still lacks evidence. Denosumab, a human monoclonal antibody, has shown encouraging results for the treatment of osteosarcopenia. Our systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the potential dual role of denosumab as an anti-resorptive agent and for other beneficial muscle-related effects in patients with osteosarcopenia, and to evaluate whether denosumab can be a treatment of choice compared to bisphosphonate. METHODS Relevant literature was collated from the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), PubMed, and Google Scholar databases. The primary outcome was denosumab's effect on lumbar spine bone mineral density (LS BMD), handgrip strength, and gait speed change. The secondary outcome was the effect of denosumab on appendicular lean mass (ALM). The outcomes were presented as mean difference (MD). A random effects model was used in the analysis to represent the population. The risk of bias was assessed using funnel plots. RESULTS Out of the 3,074 studies found, four full-text studies met the inclusion criteria, including 264 and 244 participants in the intervention and control groups, respectively. Regarding a primary outcome, our meta-analysis showed that denosumab showed no significant differences in LS BMD and gait speed changes compared to other agents-MD=0.37, 95% confidence interval (CI), -0.35 to 0.79; p=0.09 and MD=0.11; 95% CI, -0.18 to 0.40; p=0.46, respectively. Denosumab had a significant effect on handgrip strength change compared to standard agents-MD=5.16; 95% CI, 1.38 to 18.94; p=0.007, based on the random effects model. CONCLUSIONS Denosumab was better than bisphosphonate and placebo in improving muscle strength (handgrip strength). Therefore, denosumab may be favored in individuals with osteosarcopenia to improve muscular performance and reduce fall risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Periprosthetic bone mineral density (BMD) loss after total hip arthroplasty (THA) may threaten the survival of implants. Zoledronic acid (ZA) and denosumab were effective in reducing bone loss in conditions associated with accelerated bone turnover by inhibiting osteoclast activity. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficiency and safety of ZA and denosumab for periprosthetic BMD loss after THA. METHODS A systematic search of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) associated with ZA or denosumab and THA was performed in MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and the Web of Science from 1980 to 2022. Meta-analysis was performed by the Cochrane Review Manager 5 (RevMan) version 5.41. Cochrane risk of bias tool and GRADEpro were applied for methodological quality and overall evidence quality, respectively. RESULTS Nine RCTs involving a total of 480 patients were finally included and analyzed. The pooled data that demonstrated significantly less periprosthetic BMD loss in Gruen zone 7 occurred in the intervention group patients than in the control group patients at 3 months (MD = 4.30, 95% CI: 1.78-6.82, P = 0.0008), 6 months (MD = 7.71, 95% CI: 5.41-10.02, P < 0.00001), and 12 months (MD = 8.19, 95% CI: 5.97-10.42, P < 0.00001) after THA. No serious adverse events (AEs) were observed. CONCLUSION In the current analysis with evidence on the efficacy and safety of ZA and denosumab, the authors recommend the use of ZA or denosumab treatment for periprosthetic bone mineral density loss.

RANKL-RANK-OPG Pathway in Charcot Diabetic Foot: Pathophysiology and Clinical-Therapeutic Implications. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24033014.

Abstract
Charcot Foot (CF), part of a broader condition known as Charcot Neuro-Osteoarthropathy (CNO), is characterized by neuropathic arthropathy with a progressive alteration of the foot. CNO is one of the most devastating complications in patients with diabetes mellitus and peripheral neuropathy but can also be caused by neurological or infectious diseases. The pathogenesis is multifactorial; many studies have demonstrated the central role of inflammation and the Receptor Activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-Receptor Activator of NF-κB (RANK)-Osteoprotegerin (OPG) pathway in the acute phase of the disease, resulting in the serum overexpression of RANKL. This overexpression and activation of this signal lead to increased osteoclast activity and osteolysis, which is a prelude to bone destruction. The aim of this narrative review is to analyze this signaling pathway in bone remodeling, and in CF in particular, to highlight its clinical aspects and possible therapeutic implications of targeting drugs at different levels of the pathway. Drugs that act at different levels in this pathway are anti-RANKL monoclonal antibodies (Denosumab), bisphosphonates (BP), and calcitonin. The literature review showed encouraging data on treatment with Denosumab, although in a few studies and in small sample sizes. In contrast, BPs have been re-evaluated in recent years in relation to the high possibility of side effects, while calcitonin has shown little efficacy on CNO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Periplaneta americana extract (PAE) is proven to be promising in treating fever, wound healing, liver fibrosis, and cardiovascular disease. However, the role of PAE in skeletal disorders remains unclear. This study investigated whether PAE regulates osteoclastic differentiation in vitro via the culture using RAW264.7 cells and bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs). MATERIALS AND METHODS RAW264.7 cells and BMDMs were cultured and induced for osteoclastic differentiation supplementing with different concentrations of PAE (0, 0.1, 1, and 10 mg/mL). Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay was used to detect the cytotoxicity and cell proliferation. TRAP staining, actin ring staining, real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and bone resorption activity test were performed to detect osteoclastic differentiation. RT-qPCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were conducted to assay the expression and secretion of inflammatory factors. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and western blot analysis were carried out to uncover the underlying mechanism. RESULTS CCK-8 results showed that 10 mg/mL and a lower concentration of PAE did not affect cell proliferation. RT-qPCR analysis verified that PAE down-regulated the osteoclastic genes Nfatc1, Ctsk, and Acp5 in macrophages. Moreover, PAE restrained the differentiation, formation, and function of osteoclasts. Besides, RT-qPCR and ELISA assays showed that PAE decreased inflammatory genes expression and reduced the secretion of inflammatory factors, including IL1β, IL6, and TNFα. Subsequent RNA-seq analysis identified possible genes and signaling pathways of PAE-mediated osteoclastogenesis suppression. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates that PAE has inhibitive effects on osteoclastogenesis and may be a potential therapeutic alternative for bone diseases.

Abstract
Denosumab is a human monoclonal antibody that targets nuclear factor-kappa B ligand and is highly effective in blocking bone resorption. Bibliometrics can intuitively show the research development process, research status, research hotspots and development trend of a certain topic for researchers. This study assessed the course of research and development for denosumab in terms of publications over the past 2 decades. Web of Science databases were searched to identify publications related to research on denosumab from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2022. The VOS Viewer software (version 1.6.17) and Bibliometrix package in R (version 4.1.3) were used in this study. There were 5119 denosumab-related publications during this period. The total number of citations of denosumab-related publications reached 94917. The most articles were published in the field of Endocrinology Metabolism. As an international language, English remains the most popular language for writing papers. Five of the top ten institutions originated in the USA. Through the VOS Viewer analysis, we found that the relationships between Amgen Inc. with its collaborations were grouped into 4 clusters, the USA was the mainland for research and development on denosumab, closely collaborating with many other countries, such as Canada, Japan, England, and China. Wagman RB from USA was the most prolific author with 119 publications. The journal with the most publications was Osteoporosis International (481 publications). The most cited article was "Denosumab for Prevention of Fractures in Postmenopausal Women with Osteoporosis" with 2053 citations. The clinical trial comprised 6 of the 10 most frequently cited publications, and the rest consisted of reviews. The most frequent keywords for publications since January 1, 2014 were "prevention" and "management," indicating that a number of prevention and management measures have been developed to regulate the use of denosumab in treating osteoporosis. Our research provided a comprehensive review of denosumab-related publications, suggesting that the development of denosumab is a long process and numerous clinical trials have been conducted before applications in clinical settings.

Abstract
Vascular calcification (VC) is recognized as a pathological vascular disorder associated with various diseases, such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, aortic valve stenosis, coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, as well as chronic kidney disease. Therefore, it is a life-threatening state for human health. There were several studies targeting mechanisms of VC that revealed the importance of vascular smooth muscle cells transdifferentiating, phosphorous and calcium milieu, as well as matrix vesicles on the progress of VC. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of VC need to be elucidated. Though there is no acknowledged effective therapeutic strategy to reverse or cure VC clinically, recent evidence has proved that VC is not a passive irreversible comorbidity but an active process regulated by many factors. Some available approaches targeting the underlying molecular mechanism provide promising prospects for the therapy of VC. This review aims to summarize the novel findings on molecular mechanisms and therapeutic interventions of VC, including the role of inflammatory responses, endoplasmic reticulum stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, iron homeostasis, metabolic imbalance, and some related signaling pathways on VC progression. We also conclude some recent studies on controversial interventions in the clinical practice of VC, such as calcium channel blockers, renin-angiotensin system inhibitions, statins, bisphosphonates, denosumab, vitamins, and ion conditioning agents.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic multifactorial bone disease characterized by low bone quality and density and bone microstructure damage, increasing bone fragility and fracture vulnerability. Increased osteoclast differentiation and activity are important factors contributing to bone loss, which is a common pathological manifestation of bone diseases such as osteoporosis. TNF-a/NF-κB is an inflammatory signaling pathway with a key regulatory role in regulating osteoclast formation, and the classical pathway RANKL/RANK/OPG assists osteoclast formation. Activation of this inflammatory pathway promotes the formation of osteoclasts and accelerates the process of osteoporosis. Recent studies and emerging evidence have consistently demonstrated the potential of probiotics to modulate bone health. Secretions of Bifidobacterium, a genus of probiotic bacteria in the phylum Actinobacteria, such as short-chain fatty acids, equol, and exopolysaccharides, have indicated beneficial effects on bone health. This review discusses the molecular mechanisms of the TNF-a/NF-κB inflammatory pathway in regulating osteoclast formation and describes the secretions produced by Bifidobacterium and their potential effects on bone health through this pathway, opening up new directions for future research.

Abstract
Bone loss during mechanical unloading increases fracture risk and is a major concern for the general population and astronauts during spaceflight. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays an important role in bone metabolism. One of the main ECS receptors, cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1), has been studied in regards to basic bone metabolism; however, little is known as to how CB1 and the ECS affect bone in different mechanical environments. In this study, we analyzed the influence of global CB1 deficiency and sex on mice during disuse caused by single limb immobilization. Female mice were more sensitive to disuse-induced BV/TV loss than males in both the femoral metaphysis and tibial epiphysis. Genotype also affected bone loss in a sex-dependent manner, with male mice deficient in CB1 receptors (CB1KO) and female wildtype (WT) mice experiencing increased bone loss in both the tibial metaphysis and femoral epiphysis. Genotype affected the response to disuse as CB1KO mice displayed greater changes in femoral ultimate force, along with lower tibial ultimate stress, compared to WT mice. Female mice had a significantly higher femoral, and lower tibial ultimate force compared to male mice. These results reveal that disuse-induced bone loss due to CB1 deficiency is sex-dependent. CB1 deficiency in male mice exacerbated bone loss, while in females CB1 deficiency appeared to protect against disuse-induced bone loss. Regardless of genotype, female mice were more sensitive than males to disuse. These results suggest that CB1 receptors may represent a potential therapeutic target for mitigation of disuse-induced bone loss.

Abstract
AbstractOsteoporotic fractures lead to increased disability and mortality in the elderly population. With the rapid increase in the aging population around the globe, more effective treatments for osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures are urgently required. The underlying molecular mechanisms of osteoporosis are believed to be due to the increased activity of osteoclasts, decreased activity of osteoblasts, or both, which leads to an imbalance in the bone remodeling process with accelerated bone resorption and attenuated bone formation. Currently, the available clinical treatments for osteoporosis have mostly focused on factors influencing bone remodeling; however, they have their own limitations and side effects. Recently, cytokine immunotherapy, gene therapy, and stem cell therapy have become new approaches for the treatment of various diseases. This article reviews the latest research on bone remodeling mechanisms, as well as how this underpins current and potential novel treatments for osteoporosis.

Denosumab Can Prevent Collapse in Patients with Early-Stage Steroid-Induced Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head by Inhibiting Osteoclasts and Autophagy. Orthop Surg 2022; 15:256-265. [PMID: 36398455 PMCID: PMC9837242 DOI: 10.1111/os.13584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2022] [Revised: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The osteoclastic bone resorption inhibitors might have positive effect in preventing femoral head collapse in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). However, as a novel osteoclastic inhibitor, whether denosumab can prevent collapse in steroid-induced ONFH remains unknown. This study aims to evaluate the treatment effect of denosumab and the potential protective mechanism. METHODS This was a retrospective study. A total of 161 patients with steroid-induced ONFH who underwent denosumab treatment were reviewed, and 209 untreated patients were selected as controls. Their clinical characteristics and radiological exam results were obtained. Patients were treated with 60 mg denosumab every 6 months for 2 years. The primary outcome was the incidence of femoral head collapse at 2 years after the initial diagnosis of ONFH. Secondary outcomes included the Harris hip score, progression of osteosclerosis, increase in necrotic area, bone marrow oedema relief, and bone mineral density increase in the femoral head. The Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square tests were performed to identify the differences between the continuous and categorical variables, respectively. A multivariate logistic regression model was built to identify the factors associated with the treatment effect of denosumab. RESULTS The incidence of femoral head collapse was 42.24% (68/161) in the denosumab group and 54.07% (113/209) in the control group (χ2 = 5.094, p = 0.024; relative risk = 0.787, 95% CI = 0.627-0.973). The excellent-good rates of the Harris hip score were 63.98% (103/161) in the denosumab group and 44.98% (94/209) in the control group (χ2 = 13.186, p < 0.001). The incidence of osteosclerosis progression in the denosumab group was 55.28% (89/161), which was significantly higher than that in the control group (43.54%, 91/209, χ2 = 5.016, p = 0.025). Meanwhile, a significant increase in bone mineral density was identified in 29.19% (47/161) and 7.18% (15/209) of patients in the denosumab and control groups, respectively (χ2 = 31.600, p < 0.001). The osteoclastic cytoplasm expression of LC3-II was more positive in the control group than in the denosumab group (immunohistochemistry scoring: 3.58 ± 2.27 vs 6.33 ± 2.64, Z = -2.684, p = 0.007). A total of three independent factors were considered to be associated with the positive treatment effect of denosumab, the time of first denosumab administration (OR = 2.010, 95% CI = 1.272-3.177), osteosclerosis (OR = 1.583, 95% CI = 1.024-2.445), and the necrotic area before denosumab administration (medium necrotic area: OR = 2.084, 95% CI = 1.245-3.487; large necrotic area: OR = 2.211, 95% CI = 1.255-3.893). CONCLUSIONS The current study demonstrated that denosumab had a positive effect on preventing femoral head collapse in patients with steroid ONFH. This effect might be closely associated with the inhibition of osteoclasts and their autophagy.

A Scoping Review of the Skeletal Effects of Naringenin. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14224851. [PMID: 36432535 PMCID: PMC9699132 DOI: 10.3390/nu14224851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is caused by the deterioration of bone density and microstructure, resulting in increased fracture risk. It transpires due to an imbalanced skeletal remodelling process favouring bone resorption. Various natural compounds can positively influence the skeletal remodelling process, of which naringenin is a candidate. Naringenin is an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compound found in citrus fruits and grapefruit. This systematic review aims to present an overview of the available evidence on the skeletal protective effects of naringenin. METHOD A systematic literature search was conducted using the PubMed and Scopus databases in August 2022. Original research articles using cells, animals, or humans to investigate the bone protective effects of naringenin were included. RESULTS Sixteen eligible articles were included in this review. The existing evidence suggested that naringenin enhanced osteoblastogenesis and bone formation through BMP-2/p38MAPK/Runx2/Osx, SDF-1/CXCR4, and PI3K/Akt/c-Fos/c-Jun/AP-1 signalling pathways. Naringenin also inhibited osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption by inhibiting inflammation and the RANKL pathway. CONCLUSIONS Naringenin enhances bone formation while suppressing bone resorption, thus achieving its skeletal protective effects. It could be incorporated into the diet through fruit intake or supplements to prevent bone loss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term usage of glucocorticoids results in a loss of bone mass and a higher risk of fracture, and the most common cause of secondary osteoporosis is glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP). For preventing GIOP, bisphosphonate (BP) is widely used. However, analysis on BP's effect on the prevention of re-fracture is insufficient. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the comparative treatment effect and prevention of re-fracture according to the type of BP in GIOP as the basis for a reliable clinical strategy for patients. METHODS AND ANALYSIS We will search electronic databases of the PubMed, Cochrane Library and EMBASE using a comprehensive search strategy in December 2021 with no language restriction. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs), quasi-RCTs, controlled trials and cohort studies evaluating the effectiveness of BP to the patients with GIOP will be included in this study. The primary outcome will be the incidence of hip, vertebral and other fractures. The secondary outcome will include percentage changes on the bone mineral density and incidence of re-fracture. Assessing risk of bias for included studies is done using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and Risk Of Bias In Non-randomized Studies-of Intervention tool. If quantitative synthesis is possible, a meta-analysis will be performed. A subgroup analysis will be conducted to compare re-fracture rate on the patients with GIOP who experience previous fractures. This study's result will provide evidence for the effectiveness of BP in the prevention of re-fracture on patients with GIOP. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The results will be disseminated through publishing in a peer-reviewed journal or public presentations. Ethical approval is not required as this is a systematic review of publicly available data. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42022343787.

Abstract
Background: Osteoporosis is a type of systematic metabolic bone disease caused by the decrease in osteogenic activity or excessive resorption of bone with the relative enhancement of osteoclast function. As osteoporosis seriously affects the quality of patients’ life, effective drugs are needed to treat this disease. Based on the combination of network pharmacology and cellular studies, this study aimed to investigate the probable mechanism of Dehydromiltirone (DHT) in the treatment of osteoporosis. Method: The targets of DHT in osteoporosis were searched using the PharmGKB, OMIM, and Genecard platforms. The PPI core targets, and the GO and KEGG enrichment analysis results were obtained using Cytoscape software, and the David and Metascape databases, respectively. The network pharmacology results were also verified via in vitro cellular experiments. Results: Through network pharmacology and docking analysis, we found DHT was involved in peptide tyrosine phosphorylation, cell surface receptor tyrosine kinase signaling pathways, and MAPK signaling pathways. According to the molecular docking results, the binding of DHT to MAPK14 was more stable than other proteins, which suggests that DHT may affect osteoclast formation through the MAPK signaling pathway. Moreover, DHT was found to inhibit the expression of osteoclast-associated genes, including NFATc1, CTSK, c-Fos, Acp5, and MMP9; as well as the phosphorylation of P38, ERK, and JNK of the MAPK signaling pathway; and the degradation of IκB-α of NF-κB signaling pathway. Conclusion: DHT exhibited an anti-osteoclastogenesis effect by reducing the expression of related genes, ultimately inhibiting bone resorption in vitro.

Abstract
Purpose This randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Jianyao Migu granules (JYMGG) in the treatment of primary osteopenic low back pain (LBP). Patients and Methods A total of 108 patients with primary osteopenic LBP were randomly divided into the JYMGG group and placebo group. Both groups took 600 mg of oral Caltrate D daily; in addition, the JYMGG group was given oral JYMGG, while the placebo group was given placebo granules. The treatment period was 6 months for both groups. The pre- to post-treatment changes in the bone mineral density (BMD), visual analogue scale (VAS) score, Oswestry disability index (ODI), and bone turnover markers were compared between the two groups. Results The post-treatment VAS score and ODI were significantly lower than baseline in both groups (P<0.05). In the JYMGG group, the lumbar BMD increased from 0.88±0.07 g/cm2 to 0.90±0.13 g/cm2 and the hip BMD increased from 0.77±0.08 g/cm2 to 0.78±0.10 g/cm2, giving increases of 2.70% and 1.96% respectively, but the differences were not statistically significant. The post-treatment levels of ALP, osteocalcin, P1NP, and β-CTX were increased compared with baseline in both groups, but the differences were not statistically significant. The thyrotropin level was significantly increased after treatment in the placebo group (P<0.05). There were no abnormalities detected in routine blood and kidney function tests performed during the observation period. Some patients showed elevated liver enzymes and gastrointestinal reactions. Conclusion JYMGG effectively relieved the bone pain, and improved the quality of life of patients with primary osteopenic LBP.

Abstract
Osteoporosis has been defined as the silent disease of the 21st century, becoming a public health risk due to its severity, chronicity and progression and affecting mainly postmenopausal women and older adults. Osteoporosis is characterized by an imbalance between bone resorption and bone production. It is diagnosed through different methods such as bone densitometry and dual X-rays. The treatment of this pathology focuses on different aspects. On the one hand, pharmacological treatments are characterized by the use of anti-resorptive drugs, as well as emerging regenerative medicine treatments such as cell therapies and the use of bioactive hydrogels. On the other hand, non-pharmacological treatments are associated with lifestyle habits that should be incorporated, such as physical activity, diet and the cessation of harmful habits such as a high consumption of alcohol or smoking. This review seeks to provide an overview of the theoretical basis in relation to bone biology, the existing methods for diagnosis and the treatments of osteoporosis, including the development of new strategies.

Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:937538. [PMID: 36034813 PMCID: PMC9399673 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.937538] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Osteoporosis (OP) is an age-related bone disease that has emerged as a worldwide public health concern due to its increasing incidence and high disability rate. Tanshinol [D (+) β-3,4-dihydroxyphenyl lactic acid, TS], a water-soluble component extracted from Salvia miltiorrhiza, has proven to be effective in attenuating OP in vitro and in vivo. However, there is insufficient evidence to support its clinical application. Objective: This meta-analysis aimed to investigate available OP animal model studies to demonstrate the antiosteoporosis effects of TS in a systematic manner. Methods: Electronic searches of related studies were conducted in the following databases: EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese VIP Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and Wanfang. The retrieval date was January 2022, and there were no time or language restrictions. The CAMARADES 10-item quality checklist was utilized to test the risk of potential bias for each study, and modifications were performed accordingly. The primary outcome was bone mineral density (BMD, which included the femur and lumbar spine); and secondary outcomes were parameters for trabecular bone such as bone volume over total volume (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular separation (Tb.Sp), conditions of the femur (including bone maximum load and bone elastic load), and markers of bone metabolism (serum osteocalcin, S-OCN). Results: A total of nine studies including 176 rats were chosen for this analysis. Egger’s test revealed the presence of publication bias in various studies regarding the primary outcome. According to this systematic review, TS significantly increased the BMD of the femur (BMD-femur) (SMD = 4.40; 95% CI = 1.61 to 7.19; p = 0.002, I2 = 94.6%), BMD of the lumbar spine (BMD-lumbar) (SMD = 6.390; 95% CI = 2.036 to 10.744; p = 0.004, I2 = 95.9%), BV/TV (SMD = 0.790; 95% CI = 0.376 to 1.204; p = 0.000, I2 = 10.8), Tb.N (SMD = 0.690; 95% CI = 0.309 to 1.071; p = 0.000, I2 = 12%), Tb.Th (SMD = 0.772; 95% CI = 0.410 to 1.134; p = 0.000, I2 = 32.2%), and S-OCN (SMD = 3.13; 95% CI = 0.617 to 5.65; p = 0.015, I2 = 92.3%), while the Tb.Sp level was markedly decreased in OP models in comparison to the controls (SMD = −0.822; 95% CI = −1.207 to −0.437; p = 0.000, I2 = 0%). Moreover, TS treatment was associated with a significant improvement of the bone biomechanical indicators, including bone maximum load (SMD = 0.912; 95% CI = 0.370 to 1.455; p = 0.001, I2 = 40%) and elasticity load (SMD = 0.821; 95% CI = 0.290 to 1.351; p = 0.002, I2 = 0%). Conclusion: Collectively, our findings suggest that TS can improve BMD, bone microarchitecture, bone biomechanics, and S-OCN expression in rats, implying that it could be used clinically in the future.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is recognized as low bone mass and deteriorated bone microarchitecture. It is the leading cause of fractures and consequent morbidity globally. The established pathophysiological evidence favors the endocrine factors for osteoporosis and the role of the immune system on the skeletal system has been recently identified. Due to the common developmental niche bone and immune system interactions have led to the emergence of osteoimmunology. Immune dysregulation can initiate inflammatory conditions that adversely affect bone integrity. The role of immune cells, such as T-lymphocytes subsets (Th17), cannot be neglected in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. Local inflammation within the bone from any cause attracts immune cells that participate in the activation of osteoclasts. This work summarizes the present knowledge of osteoimmunology in reference to osteoporosis and identifies novel targets for immunotherapy of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Chemotherapeutic agents, endocrine therapy and radiotherapy used in the management of breast cancer are known to cause decreased bone mineral density, and thus, increased incidence of fractures. A majority (~60%) of the breast cancer patients in India are either estrogen (ER) or progesterone hormone receptor (PR) positive. Adjuvant treatment with aromatase inhibitors (AIs) is the treatment mainstay for hormone-sensitive disease in postmenopausal (PM) women, with reduced bone mineral density (BMD), which results in increased fracture rates. Zoledronic acid, alendronate, risedronate and denosumab have been the agents of choice for managing bone loss. Denosumab 60 mg is approved for gaining bone mass in women with breast cancer who are at high risk for fracture following adjuvant AI treatment. The phase III HALT-BC data indicate an improvement in BMD with denosumab and a 50% reduction in clinical fractures, with significant improvements seen at the lumbar spine, distal third of the radius, and total hip. Denosumab has several advantages over other bone modifying agents such as subcutaneous self-administration by the patient themselves, no requirement of hospitalization, no dose modifications in renal impairment, and low incidence of acute phase anaphylactic reactions. We review the available evidence of denosumab for managing bone loss in non-metastatic breast cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Denosumab is a human monoclonal immunoglobulin G2 antibody developed from the ovarian cells of Chinese hamsters. We aimed to histomorphometrically and radiologically evaluate the effects of xenografts used with local denosumab on the healing of defect sites using rabbit skulls. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two 10-mm diameter critical-size defects were created in 16 rabbits. The defect areas were filled with xenografts and xenograft + 3 mg denosumab in the control and denosumab groups (DEN), respectively. We evaluated new bone, residual graft, soft tissue areas, and bone volume in 4- and 8-week study groups. RESULTS Histomorphometrically, there were no statistically significant differences between groups at both 4 and 8 weeks regarding residual graft, new bone, and soft tissue area (p > 0.05). The 4-week residual graft control group values were significantly higher than the 8-week values (p < 0.05). The soft tissue area was significantly greater in the 4-week compared with the 8-week DEN group (p < 0.05). The radiologically measured total bone volume was significantly greater in the 8-week specimens than in the 4-week specimens (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION In this study, denosumab used locally with bone grafts, showed no direct effect on new and total bone volume.

Abstract
Since the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL), its cognate receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (RANK), and the decoy receptor osteoprotegerin (OPG) were discovered, a number of studies have uncovered the crucial role of the RANKL-RANK-OPG pathway in controlling the key aspect of bone homeostasis, the immune system, inflammation, cancer, and other systems under pathophysiological condition. These findings have expanded the understanding of the multifunctional biology of the RANKL-RANK-OPG pathway and led to the development of therapeutic potential targeting this pathway. The successful development and application of anti-RANKL antibody in treating diseases causing bone loss validates the utility of therapeutic approaches based on the modulation of this pathway. Moreover, recent studies have demonstrated the involvement of the RANKL-RANK pathway in osteoblast differentiation and bone formation, shedding light on the RANKL-RANK dual signaling in coupling bone resorption and bone formation. In this review, we will summarize the current understanding of the RANKL-RANK-OPG system in the context of the bone and the immune system as well as the impact of this pathway in disease conditions, including cancer development and metastasis.

Abstract
BACKGRUOUND The efficacy and safety of denosumab have been established in a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in Korean postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. This postmarketing surveillance study was aimed to investigate the safety and effectiveness of denosumab in Korean real-world clinical practice. METHODS Patients with osteoporosis who had received denosumab per the Korean approved indications in the postmarketing setting between September 2014 and September 2019 were enrolled. The primary endpoint was the incidence of adverse events (AEs) and adverse drug reactions (ADRs). The secondary endpoint was the percent change from baseline in bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck. RESULTS Of the 3,221 patients enrolled, 3,185 were included in the safety analysis set; 2,973 (93.3%) were female, and the mean± standard deviation (SD) age was 68.9±9.9 years. The mean±SD study period was 350.0±71.4 days. AEs, fatal AEs, and ADRs occurred in 19.3%, 0.8%, and 1.6%, respectively. The most frequent AEs, occurring in >0.5% of patients, were dizziness (0.7%), arthralgia (0.7%), back pain (0.6%), and myalgia (0.6%). Hypocalcemia occurred in 0.3% of patients. There were no cases of osteonecrosis of the jaw and atypical femoral fracture. Mean±SD percent change from baseline in BMD of the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck was 7.3%±23.6%, 3.6%±31.4%, and 3.2%±10.7%, respectively. CONCLUSION The safety and effectiveness of denosumab in Korean patients with osteoporosis in this study were comparable with those in the Korean randomized controlled trial, with no new safety findings.

Polarization Profiles of T Lymphocytes and Macrophages Responses in Periodontitis. ADVANCES IN EXPERIMENTAL MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY 2022; 1373:195-208.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a multifactorial, chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of teeth triggered by the complex interactions between a dysbiotic bacterial biofilm and the host's immune response that results in the characteristic loss of periodontal attachment and alveolar bone. The differential phenotypic presentations of periodontitis emerge from inter-individual differences in immune response regulatory mechanisms. The monocyte-macrophage system has a crucial role in innate immunity and the initiation of the T and B lymphocyte adaptive immune responses. Macrophages involve a heterogeneous cell population that shows wide plasticity and differentiation dynamics. In response to the inflammatory milieu, they can skew at the time of TLR ligation to predominant M1 -pro-inflammatory- or M2 -anti-inflammatory/healing- functional phenotypes. The perpetuation of inflammation by M1 macrophages leads to the recruitment of the adaptive immune response, promoting Th1, Th17, and Th22 differentiation, which are directly associated with periodontal breakdown. In contrast, M2 macrophages induce Th2 and Treg responses which are associated with periodontal homeostasis. In this article, we review the recent advances comprising the role of macrophages and lymphocyte polarization profiles and their reprogramming as potential therapeutic strategies. For this purpose, we reviewed the available literature targeting periodontitis, macrophage, and lymphocyte subpopulations with an emphasis in the later 5 years. The active reprogramming of macrophages and lymphocytes polarization crosstalk opens a promising area for therapeutic development.

Abstract
It is well known that Semaphorin 4D (Sema4D) inhibits IGF-1-mediated osteogenesis by binding with PlexinB1 expressed on osteoblasts. However, its elevated level in the gingival crevice fluid of periodontitis patients and the broader scope of its activities in the context of potential upregulation of osteoclast-mediated periodontal bone-resorption suggest the need for further investigation of this multifaceted molecule. In short, the pathophysiological role of Sema4D in periodontitis requires further study. Accordingly, attachment of the ligature to the maxillary molar of mice for 7 days induced alveolar bone-resorption accompanied by locally elevated, soluble Sema4D (sSema4D), TNF-α and RANKL. Removal of the ligature induced spontaneous bone regeneration during the following 14 days, which was significantly promoted by anti-Sema4D-mAb administration. Anti-Sema4D-mAb was also suppressed in vitro osteoclastogenesis and pit formation by RANKL-stimulated BMMCs. While anti-Sema4D-mAb downmodulated the bone-resorption induced in mouse periodontitis, it neither affected local production of TNF-α and RANKL nor systemic skeletal bone remodeling. RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and resorptive activity were also suppressed by blocking of CD72, but not Plexin B2, suggesting that sSema4D released by osteoclasts promotes osteoclastogenesis via ligation to CD72 receptor. Overall, our data indicated that ssSema4D released by osteoclasts may play a dual function by decreasing bone formation, while upregulating bone-resorption.

Modulation of Inflammation by Plant-Derived Nutraceuticals in Tendinitis. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14102030.

Abstract
Tendinitis (tendinopathy) is a pro-inflammatory and painful tendon disease commonly linked with mechanical overuse and associated injuries, drug abuse, and lifestyle factors (including poor diet and physical inactivity) that causes significant healthcare expenditures due to its high incidence. Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) is one of the major pro-inflammatory transcription factors, along with other inflammation signaling pathways, triggered by a variety of stimuli, including cytokines, endotoxins, physical and chemical stressors, hypoxia, and other pro-inflammatory factors. Their activation is known to regulate the expression of a multitude of genes involved in inflammation, degradation, and cell death. The pathogenesis of tendinitis is still poorly understood, whereas efficient and sustainable treatment is missing. Targeting drug suppression of the key inflammatory regulators represents an effective strategy for tendinitis therapy, but requires a comprehensive understanding of their principles of action. Conventional monotherapies are often ineffective and associated with severe side effects in patients. Therefore, agents that modulate multiple cellular targets represent therapeutic treatment potential. Plant-derived nutraceuticals have been shown to act as multi-targeting agents against tendinitis via various anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanisms, whereat they were able to specifically modulate numerous signaling pathways, including NF-κB, p38/MAPK, JNK/STAT3, and PI3K/Akt, thus down-regulating inflammatory processes. This review discusses the utility of herbal nutraceuticals that have demonstrated safety and tolerability as anti-inflammatory agents for the prevention and treatment of tendinitis through the suppression of catabolic signaling pathways. Limitations associated with the use of nutraceuticals are also described.

Abstract
Senescence mainly manifests as a series of degenerative changes in the morphological structure and function of the body. Osteoporosis is a systemic bone metabolic disease characterized by destruction of bone microstructure, low bone mineral content, decreased bone strength, and increased brittleness and fracture susceptibility. Osteoblasts, osteoclasts and osteocytes are the main cellular components of bones. However, in the process of aging, due to various self or environmental factors, the body’s function and metabolism are disordered, and osteoporosis will appear in the bones. Here, we summarize the mechanism of aging, and focus on the impact of aging on bone remodeling homeostasis, including the mechanism of ion channels on bone remodeling. Finally, we summarized the current clinical medications, targets and defects for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Cao L, Yang K, Yuan W, Zhou S, Zhao R, Qiu S. Melatonin Mediates Osteoblast Proliferation Through the STIM1/ORAI1 Pathway. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:851663. [PMID: 35392575 PMCID: PMC8980543 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.851663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Based on the positive correlation between bone mineral density and melatonin levels in blood, this study confirmed that melatonin supplementation prevents postmenopausal osteoporosis. We further confirmed that melatonin promotes an increase in intracellular calcium concentrations through the STIM1/ORAI1 pathway, thereby inducing the proliferation of osteoblasts. Introduction: Osteoporosis (OP) is a progressive, systemic bone disease that is one of the main causes of disability and death in elderly female patients. As an amine hormone produced by the human pineal gland, melatonin plays an important role in regulating bone metabolism. This study intends to investigate the relationship between melatonin levels in human blood and bone density and to suggest the efficacy of melatonin in treating osteoporosis by performing in vivo and in vitro experiments. Methods: We used liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to determine the serum melatonin levels in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and young women with a normal bone mass. The bone density, BV/TV, Tb.Th, Tb.Sp and other indicators of postmenopausal osteoporosis and mice with a normal bone mass were detected by measuring bone density and micro-CT. The intracellular calcium ion concentration was detected using fluorescence microscopy and a full-wavelength multifunctional microplate reader, and the expression of SOCE-related genes and STIM1/ORAI1 proteins was detected using PCR and WB. Results: This study confirmed that bone density positively correlates with the melatonin level in human blood. In the animal model, melatonin supplementation reverses postmenopausal osteoporosis. We explored the internal mechanism of melatonin treatment of osteoporosis. Melatonin promotes an increase in intracellular calcium ion concentrations through the STIM1/ORAI1 pathway to induce osteoblast proliferation. Conclusions: This study provides an important theoretical basis for the clinical application of melatonin in patients with osteoporosis and helps to optimize the diagnosis and treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

New Function of Cholesterol Oxidation Products Involved in Osteoporosis Pathogenesis. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23042020. [PMID: 35216140 PMCID: PMC8876989 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23042020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2022] [Revised: 02/05/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic bone disease characterized by decreased bone strength, microarchitectural changes in bone tissues, and increased risk of fracture. Its occurrence is closely related to various factors such as aging, genetic factors, living habits, and nutritional deficiencies as well as the disturbance of bone homeostasis. The dysregulation of bone metabolism is regarded as one of the key influencing factors causing OP. Cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) are important compounds in the maintenance of bone metabolic homeostasis by participating in several important biological processes such as the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells, bone formation in osteoblasts, and bone resorption in osteoclasts. The effects of specific COPs on mesenchymal stem cells are mainly manifested by promoting osteoblast genesis and inhibiting adipocyte genesis. This review aims to elucidate the biological roles of COPs in OP development, starting from the molecular mechanisms of OP, pointing out opportunities and challenges in current research, and providing new ideas and perspectives for further studies of OP pathogenesis.
