Abstract
BACKGROUND The influence of dietary antioxidant intake on the occurrence and progression of osteoporosis may be significant. However, to date, evidence on the link between combined effect of dietary antioxidants on bone mineral density (BMD) level and risk of osteoporosis is limited. We aimed to assess the independent and combined association of dietary antioxidant intake with BMD level and risk of osteoporosis among elderly population in United States through analysis of data in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. METHODS The dietary antioxidant intake was assessed based on six antioxidants, including vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, selenium, and total carotenoid. A composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) was used to evaluate the combined exposure of dietary antioxidant intake. RESULTS A total of 5618 participants were included. Higher dietary vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, selenium, and total carotenoid, were positively associated with BMD level. Compared with participants in the first quartile, those in the higher quartile of vitamin E (Q4: OR 0.652; 95% CI 0.463-0.918), zinc (Q4: OR 0.581; 95% CI 0.408-0.826), and selenium (Q3: OR 0.673; 95% CI 0.503-0.899) were associated with decreased risk of overall osteoporosis. Furthermore, compared to those in the first quartile, participants in the highest quartile of CDAI were associated with increased total femur (β 0.019; 95% CI 0.007-0.032), femur neck (β 0.020; 95% CI 0.009-0.032), trochanter (β 0.012; 95% CI 0.001-0.023), and intertrochanter BMD level (β 0.022; 95% CI 0.007-0.037); participants in the highest quartile of CDAI were associated with decreased risk of overall osteoporosis (OR 0.536; 95% CI 0.376-0.763). Furthermore, the associations of CDAI with the BMD level and osteoporosis risk were more significant among female participants. CONCLUSION Our study provides evidence that a combination of dietary antioxidants intake was associated increased BMD level and decreased osteoporosis risk.

Steyl SK, Jeyapalina S, Griffin A, Krishnamoorthi V, Beck JP, Agarwal J, Shea J. Efficacy of sintered Zinc-doped fluorapatite scaffold as an antimicrobial regenerative bone filler for dental applications. J Dent 2024; 146:105070. [PMID: 38740251 PMCID: PMC11180563 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2024.105070] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Revised: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to assess whether zinc-doped fluorapatite (ZnFA) could serve as an effective antimicrobial dental bone filler for bone regeneration compared to autografts. METHODS FA and 2 % zinc-doped FA (2ZnFA) were synthesized and characterized in-house. Compressed and sintered FA and 2ZnFA disks were incubated with bacteria to assess antimicrobial properties. Adipose-derived stem cells were cultured on these discs to evaluate the surfaces' ability to support cell growth and promote osteogenic differentiation. Surfaces exhibiting the highest expressions of the bone markers osteopontin and osteocalcin were selected for an in vivo study in a rat mandibular defect model. Twenty rats were divided into 5 groups, equally, and a 5 mm surgical defect of the jaw was left untreated or filled with 2ZnFA, FA, autograft, or demineralized bone matrix (DBM). At 12 weeks, the defects and surrounding tissues were harvested and subjected to microCT and histological evaluations. RESULTS Standard techniques such as FTIR, ICP-MS, fluoride probe, and XRD revealed the sintered FA and ZnFA's chemical compositions and structures. Bacterial studies revealed no significant differences in surface bacterial adhesion properties between FA and 2ZnFA, but significantly fewer bacterial loads than control titanium discs (p < 0.05). Cell culture data confirmed that both surfaces could support cell growth and promote the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. MicroCT analysis confirmed statistical similarities in bone regeneration within FA, 2ZnFA, and autograft groups. CONCLUSION The data suggests that both FA and 2ZnFA could serve as alternatives to autograft materials, which are the current gold standard. Moreover, these bone fillers outperformed DBM, an allograft material commonly used as a dental bone void filler. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The use of FA or 2ZnFA for treating mandibular defects led to bone regeneration statistically similar to autograft repair and significantly outperformed the widely used dental bone filler, DBM. Additional translational research may confirm FA-based materials as superior substitutes for existing synthetic bone fillers, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.

Abstract
Bone infection poses a major clinical challenge that can hinder patient recovery and exacerbate postoperative complications. This study has developed a bioactive composite scaffold through the co-assembly and intrafibrillar mineralization of collagen fibrils and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires (IMC/ZnO). The IMC/ZnO exhibits bone-like hierarchical structures and enhances capabilities for osteogenesis, antibacterial activity, and bacteria-infected bone healing. During co-cultivation with human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs), the IMC/ZnO improves BMMSC adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation even under inflammatory conditions. Moreover, it suppresses the activity of Gram-negative Porphyromonas gingivalis and Gram-positive Streptococcus mutans by releasing zinc ions within the acidic infectious microenvironment. In vivo, the IMC/ZnO enables near-complete healing of infected bone defects within the intricate oral bacterial milieu, which is attributed to IMC/ZnO orchestrating M2 macrophage polarization, and fostering an osteogenic and anti-inflammatory microenvironment. Overall, these findings demonstrate the promise of the bioactive scaffold IMC/ZnO for treating bacteria-infected bone defects.

Complex intrinsic abnormalities in osteoblast lineage cells of X-linked hypophosphatemia: Analysis of human iPS cell models generated by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene ablation. Bone 2024; 181:117044. [PMID: 38331306 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is caused by inactivating variants of the phosphate regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene. Although the overproduction of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is responsible for hypophosphatemia and impaired vitamin D metabolism, the pathogenesis of XLH remains unclear. We herein generated PHEX-knockout (KO) human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by applying CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene ablation to an iPS clone derived from a healthy male, and analyzed PHEX-KO iPS cells with deletions extending from exons 1 to 3 and frameshifts by inducing them to differentiate into the osteoblast lineage. We confirmed the increased production of FGF23 in osteoblast lineage cells differentiated from PHEX-KO iPS cells. In vitro mineralization was enhanced in osteoblast lineage cells from PHEX-KO iPS cells than in those from isogenic control iPS cells, which reminded us of high bone mineral density and enthesopathy in patients with XLH. The extracellular level of pyrophosphate (PPi), an inhibitor of mineralization, was elevated, and this increase appeared to be partly due to the reduced activity of tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). Osteoblast lineage cells derived from PHEX-KO iPS cells also showed the increased expression of multiple molecules such as dentine matrix protein 1, osteopontin, RUNX2, FGF receptor 1 and early growth response 1. This gene dysregulation was similar to that in the osteoblasts/osteocytes of Phex-deficient Hyp mice, suggesting that common pathogenic mechanisms are shared between human XLH and Hyp mice. Moreover, we found that the phosphorylation of CREB was markedly enhanced in osteoblast lineage cells derived from PHEX-KO iPS cells, which appeared to be associated with the up-regulation of the parathyroid hormone related protein gene. PHEX deficiency also affected the response of the ALPL gene encoding TNSALP to extracellular Pi. Collectively, these results indicate that complex intrinsic abnormalities in osteoblasts/osteocytes underlie the pathogenesis of human XLH.

Abstract
Bone fractures and critical-size bone defects are significant public health issues, and clinical treatment outcomes are closely related to the intrinsic properties of the utilized implant materials. Zinc (Zn)-based biodegradable metals (BMs) have emerged as promising bioactive materials because of their exceptional biocompatibility, appropriate mechanical properties, and controllable biodegradation. This review summarizes the state of the art in terms of Zn-based metals for bone repair and regeneration, focusing on bridging the gap between biological mechanism and required bioactivity. The molecular mechanism underlying the release of Zn ions from Zn-based BMs in the improvement of bone repair and regeneration is elucidated. By integrating clinical considerations and the specific bioactivity required for implant materials, this review summarizes the current research status of Zn-based internal fixation materials for promoting fracture healing, Zn-based scaffolds for regenerating critical-size bone defects, and Zn-based barrier membranes for reconstituting alveolar bone defects. Considering the significant progress made in the research on Zn-based BMs for potential clinical applications, the challenges and promising research directions are proposed and discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has gained attention as a therapeutic agent due to its potential biological activities, including osteogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in the osteogenic activity of BDNF have not been fully understood. This study aimed to investigate the action of BDNF on the osteoblast differentiation in bone marrow stromal cells, and its influence on signaling pathways. In addition, to evaluate the clinical efficacy, an in vivo animal study was performed. METHODS Preosteoblast cells (MC3T3-E1), bone marrow-derived stromal cells (ST2), and a direct 2D co-culture system were treated with BDNF. The effect of BDNF on cell proliferation was determined using the CCK-8 assay. Osteoblast differentiation was assessed based on alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and staining and the protein expression of multiple osteoblast markers. Calcium accumulation was examined by Alizarin red S staining. For the animal study, we used ovariectomized Sprague-Dawley rats and divided them into BDNF and normal saline injection groups. MicroCT, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) stain were performed for analysis. RESULTS BDNF significantly increased ALP activity, calcium deposition, and the expression of osteoblast differentiation-related proteins, such as ALP, osteopontin, etc., in both ST-2 and the MC3T3-E1 and ST-2 co-culture systems. Moreover, the effect of BDNF on osteogenic differentiation was diminished by blocking tropomyosin receptor kinase B, as well as inhibiting c-Jun N-terminal kinase and p38 MAPK signals. Although the animal study results including bone density and histology showed increased osteoblastic and decreased osteoclastic activity, only a portion of parameters reached statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS Our study results showed that BDNF affects osteoblast differentiation through TrkB receptor, and JNK and p38 MAPK signal pathways. Although not statistically significant, the trend of such effects was observed in the animal experiment.

Abstract
Zinc (Zn) plays a crucial role in bone metabolism and imbues biodegradable Zn-based materials with the ability to promote bone regeneration in bone trauma. However, the impact of Zn biodegradation on bone repair, particularly its influence on angiogenesis, remains unexplored. This study reveals that Zn biodegradation induces a consistent dose-dependent spatiotemporal response in angiogenesis,both in vivo and in vitro. In a critical bone defect model, an increase in Zn release intensity from day 3 to 10 post-surgery is observed. By day 10, the CD31-positive area around the Zn implant significantly surpasses that of the Ti implant, indicating enhanced angiogenesis. Furthermore,angiogenesis exhibits a distance-dependent pattern closely mirroring the distribution of Zn signals from the implant. In vitro experiments demonstrate that Zn extraction fosters the proliferation and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and upregulates the key genes associated with tube formation, such as HIF-1α and VEGF-A, peaking at a concentration of 22.5 µM. Additionally, Zn concentrations within the range of 11.25-45 µM promote the polarization of M0-type macrophages toward the M2-type, while inhibiting polarization toward the M1-type. These findings provide essential insights into the biological effects of Zn on bone repair, shedding light on its potential applications.

[PMID: 38042375 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2023.11.049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2023] [Revised: 11/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 12/04/2023]
Abstract
Zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is a biomaterial that has been increasingly studied in recent years. It has several applications such as bone regeneration, promotion of angiogenesis, drug loading, and antibacterial activity, and exerts multiple effects to deal with various problems in the process of bone regeneration. This systematic review aims to provide an overview of the applications and effectiveness of ZIF-8 in bone regeneration. A search of papers published in the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases revealed 532 relevant studies. Title, abstract, and full-text screening resulted in 39 papers being included in the review, including 39 in vitro and 22 animal studies. Appropriate concentrations of nano ZIF-8 can promote cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation by releasing Zn2+ and entering the cell, whereas high doses of ZIF-8 are cytotoxic and inhibit osteogenic differentiation. In addition, five studies confirmed that ZIF-8 exhibits good vasogenic activity. In all in vivo experiments, nano ZIF-8 promoted bone formation. These results indicate that, at appropriate concentrations, materials containing ZIF-8 promote bone regeneration more than materials without ZIF-8, and with characteristics such as promoting angiogenesis, drug loading, and antibacterial activity, it is expected to show promising applications in the field of bone regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This manuscript reviewed the use of ZIF-8 in bone regeneration, clarified the biocompatibility and effectiveness in promoting bone regeneration of ZIF-8 materials, and discussed the possible mechanisms and factors affecting its promotion of bone regeneration. Overall, this study provides a better understanding of the latest advances in the field of bone regeneration of ZIF-8, serves as a design guide, and contributes to the design of future experimental studies.

Abstract
Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (HBMSCs) can promote new bone formation. Previous studies have proven the ability of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) to modulate the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. However, the molecular mechanism modulated by lncRNAs in affecting the osteogenic differentiation of HBMSCs remains largely unknown. Thus, this study aims to reveal the role of lncRNA ubiquitin-specific peptidase 2 antisense RNA 1 (USP2-AS1) in regulating the osteogenic differentiation of HBMSCs and investigate its regulatory mechanism. Through bioinformatics analysis and RT-qPCR, we confirmed that USP2-AS1 expression was increased in HBMSCs after culturing in osteogenic differentiation medium (OM-HBMSCs). Moreover, we uncovered that knockdown of USP2-AS1 inhibited the osteogenic differentiation of HBMSCs. Further exploration indicated that USP2-AS1 positively regulated the expression of its nearby gene USP2. Mechanistically, USP2-AS1 recruited lysine demethylase 3A (KDM3A) to stabilize ETS proto-oncogene 1 (ETS1), transcription factor that transcriptionally activated USP2. Additionally, USP2-induced Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway activation via deubiquitination of β-catenin protein. In summary, our study proved that lncRNA USP2-AS1 facilitates the osteogenic differentiation of HBMSCs by targeting KDM3A/ETS1/USP2 axis to activate the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway.

Abstract
Zinc (Zn) is one of the most important trace elements in the human body and plays a key role in various physiological processes, especially in bone metabolism. Zn-containing materials have been reported to enhance bone repair through promoting cell proliferation, osteogenic activity, angiogenesis, and inhibiting osteoclast differentiation. Therefore, Zn-based biomaterials are potential substitutes for traditional bone grafts. In this review, the specific mechanisms of bone formation promotion by Zn-based biomaterials were discussed, and recent developments in their application in bone tissue engineering were summarized. Moreover, the challenges and perspectives of Zn-based biomaterials were concluded, revealing their attractive potential and development directions in the future.

Metallothionein 3 promotes osteoclast differentiation and survival by regulating the intracellular Zn 2+ concentration and NRF2 pathway. Cell Death Discov 2023; 9:436. [PMID: 38040717 PMCID: PMC10692135 DOI: 10.1038/s41420-023-01729-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023] Open
Abstract
In osteoclastogenesis, the metabolism of metal ions plays an essential role in controlling reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, mitochondrial biogenesis, and survival, and differentiation. However, the mechanism regulating metal ions during osteoclast differentiation remains unclear. The metal-binding protein metallothionein (MT) detoxifies heavy metals, maintains metal ion homeostasis, especially zinc, and manages cellular redox levels. We carried out tests using murine osteoclast precursors to examine the function of MT in osteoclastogenesis and evaluated their potential as targets for future osteoporosis treatments. MT genes were significantly upregulated upon differentiation from osteoclast precursors to mature osteoclasts in response to receptor activators of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL) stimulation, and MT3 expression was particularly pronounced in mature osteoclasts among MT genes. The knockdown of MT3 in osteoclast precursors demonstrated a remarkable inhibition of differentiation into mature osteoclasts. In preosteoclasts, MT3 knockdown suppressed the activity of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and NF-κB signaling pathways upon RANKL stimulation, leading to affect cell survival through elevated cleaved Caspase 3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) levels. Additionally, ROS levels were decreased, and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) (a suppressor of ROS) and the downstream antioxidant proteins, such as catalase (CAT) and heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), were more highly expressed in the MT3 preosteoclast knockdowns. mitochondrial ROS, which is involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and the production of reactive oxygen species, were similarly decreased because cAMP response element-binding (CREB) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1β (PGC-1β) were less activated due to MT3 depletion. Thus, by modulating ROS through the NRF2 pathway, MT3 plays a crucial role in regulating osteoclast differentiation and survival, acting as a metabolic modulator of intracellular zinc ions.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA)-based materials are widely used in the bone defect restoration field due to their stable physical properties, good biocompatibility, and bone induction potential. To further improve their performance with extra functions such as antibacterial activity, various kinds of metal ion-doped HA-based materials have been proposed and synthesized. This paper offered a comprehensive review of metal ion-doped HA-based materials for bone defect restoration based on the introduction of the physicochemical characteristics of HA followed by the synthesis methods, properties, and applications of different kinds of metal ion (Ag+, Zn2+, Mg2+, Sr2+, Sm3+, and Ce3+)-doped HA-based materials. In addition, the underlying challenges for bone defect restoration using these materials and potential solutions were discussed.

Abstract
Dysregulated metal homeostasis is associated with many pathological conditions, including arthritic diseases. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are the two most prevalent disorders that damage the joints and lead to cartilage and bone destruction. Recent studies show that the levels of zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) are generally altered in the serum of arthritis patients. Therefore, metal dyshomeostasis may reflect the contribution of these trace elements to the disease's pathogenesis and manifestations, suggesting their potential for prognosis and treatment. Carnosine (Car) also emerged as a biomarker in arthritis and exerts protective and osteogenic effects in arthritic joints. Notably, its zinc(II) complex, polaprezinc, has been recently proposed as a drug-repurposing candidate for bone fracture healing. On these bases, this review article aims to provide an overview of the beneficial roles of Cu and Zn in bone and cartilage health and their potential application in tissue engineering. The effects of Car and polaprezinc in promoting cartilage and bone regeneration are also discussed. We hypothesize that polaprezinc could exchange Zn for Cu, present in the culture media, due to its higher sequestering ability towards Cu. However, future studies should unveil the potential contribution of Cu in the beneficial effects of polaprezinc.

Abstract
In recent years, bone regeneration has emerged as a remarkable field that offers promising guidance for treating bone-related diseases, such as bone defects, bone infections, and osteosarcoma. Among various bone regeneration approaches, the metal ion-based strategy has surfaced as a prospective candidate approach owing to the extensive regulatory role of metal ions in bone metabolism and the diversity of corresponding delivery strategies. Various metal ions can promote bone regeneration through three primary strategies: balancing the effects of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, regulating the immune microenvironment, and promoting bone angiogenesis. In the meantime, the complex molecular mechanisms behind these strategies are being consistently explored. Moreover, the accelerated development of biomaterials broadens the prospect of metal ions applied to bone regeneration. This review highlights the potential of metal ions for bone regeneration and their underlying mechanisms. We propose that future investigations focus on refining the clinical utilization of metal ions using both mechanistic inquiry and materials engineering to bolster the clinical effectiveness of metal ion-based approaches for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Zinc is a very important and ubiquitous element, which is present in oral environment, daily diet, oral health products, dental restorative materials, and so on. However, there is a lack of attention to the role of both extracellular or intracellular zinc in the progression of periodontitis and periodontal regeneration. This review summarizes the characteristics of immunological microenvironment and host cells function in several key stages of periodontitis progression, and explores the regulatory effect of zinc during this process. We find multiple evidence indicate that zinc may be involved and play a key role in the stages of immune defense, inflammatory response and bone remodeling. Zinc supplementation in an appropriate dose range or regulation of zinc transport proteins can promote periodontal regeneration by either enhancing immune defense or up-regulating local cells proliferation and differentiation functions. Therefore, zinc homeostasis is essential in periodontal remodeling and regeneration. More attention is suggested to be focused on zinc homeostasis regulation and consider it as a potential strategy in the studies on periodontitis treatment, periodontal-guided tissue regeneration, implant material transformation, and so on.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) are important trace elements for the growth and development of children. In Wilson disease (WD), impaired Cu metabolism may affect growth. This study was conducted to evaluate the height and weight of children with neurological WD and correlate these with serum Cu, Zn, and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). METHODS This prospective cohort study was conducted in a tertiary care teaching institute. Children with neurologic WD were included. The height, weight, and body-mass index of each child were measured and categorized according to the revised national growth chart. Serum Cu, Zn, calcium, alkaline phosphatase, albumin, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and urinary-Cu were measured. Serum IGF-1 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The relationship between height and weight with trace elements and IGF was analyzed using parametric or non-parametric tests. RESULTS There were 52 children (5-18 years) with neurologic WD. Thirty-six (69.2%) children had normal height, 12 (23.1%) were tall, and 4 (7.7%) were stunted. Forty-six (88.5%) children had normal weight and six (11.5%) children were underweight. IGF-1 correlated with height, weight, duration of treatment, and serum Zn level. About 15.4% of children had stunting and/or wasting, which was associated with low levels of serum IGF-I, Zn, and calcium. CONCLUSIONS Stunting and/or wasting occurs in 15.4% of children with neurologic WD and is associated with reduced serum IGF-I, Zn, and calcium concentration. Adjunctive Zn and calcium treatment may help in achieving normal growth.

Abstract
Zinc (Zn) metal and its alloys have received a lot of interest in biomedical applications due to their biodegradability, biocompatibility, antimicrobial activity, and ability to stimulate tissue regeneration. Bulk Zn has been successfully utilized in a variety of implant applications, most notably as bioabsorbable cardiac stents and orthopedic fixation devices, where it provides adequate mechanical properties while also releasing helpful Zn ions (Zn2+) during degradation. Such beneficial ions are dose-dependent and, when released in excess, can induce cellular toxicity. In this study, we hypothesize that embedding Zn metal particles into a polymer nanofibrous scaffold will enable control of the degradation and time release of the Zn2+. We designed and fabricated two polymer scaffolds, polycaprolactone (PCL) and polycaprolactone-chitosan (PCL-CH). Each scaffold had an increasing amount of Zn. Several physicochemical properties such as fiber morphology, crystallinity, mechanical strength, hydrophilicity, degradation and release of Zn2+, thermal properties, chemical compositions, and so forth were characterized and compared with the PCL fibrous scaffold. The biological properties of the scaffolds were evaluated in vitro utilizing direct and indirect cytotoxicity assays and cell viability. All the data show that the addition of Zn changed various physical properties of the PCL and PCL-CH scaffolds except their chemical structure. Further investigation reveals that the PCL-CH scaffolds degrade the Zn particles relatively faster than the PCL because the presence of the hydrophilic CH influences the faster release of Zn2+ in cell culture conditions as compared to the PCL fibrous scaffold. The combined advantages of CH and Zn in the PCL scaffold enriched 3T3 fibroblast cells' survival and proliferation except the ones with the higher concentration of Zn particles. These new composite scaffolds are promising and can be further considered for tissue healing and regeneration applications.

Abstract
Based on multiple biological functions (mainly osteogenesis and angiogenesis) of bioactive ions, Zn/Sr-doped calcium silicate/calcium phosphate cements (Zn/Sr-CS/CPCs, including 10Zn-CS/CPC, 20Sr-CS/CPC, and 10Zn/20Sr-CS/CPC) were prepared by the addition of Zn and Sr dual active ions into CS/CPC to further accelerate its bone regeneration in this study. The physicochemical and biological properties of the Zn/Sr-CS/CPCs were systematically investigated. The results showed that the setting time was slightly prolonged, the compressive strength and porosity did not change much, and all groups maintained good injectability after the doping of Zn and Sr. Besides, the doping of Zn and Sr had little effect on the phase and microstructure of hydrated products of CS/CPC. The degradation rate of Zn/Sr-CS/CPCs decreased after doping with Zn and Sr. In mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mBMSC) experiments, all Zn/Sr-CS/CPCs stimulated the viability, adhesion, proliferation, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity together with osteogenesis-related genes (ALP, Runx2, Col-I, OCN, and OPN). The further addition of Zn and Sr played better and synergistic roles in in vitro osteogenesis. Thereinto, 10Zn/20Sr-CS/CPC manifested the optimum in vitro osteogenic performance. As for human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) experiments, the incorporation of CS doped with Zn and Sr into CPC possessed good vascularization properties of proliferation, NO secretion, tube formation, and the expression of angiogenesis-related genes (VEGF, bFGF, and eNOS). In conclusion, the doping of Zn and Sr into CS/CPC could exhibit excellent osteogenesis and good angiogenesis potentials and 10Zn/20Sr-CS/CPC could be considered as a promising candidate in bone repair.

Abstract
Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) with different topographies provide effective nano-bio interfaces for controlling the differentiation of stem cells. The interaction of stem cells with nanoscale topographies and chemical cues in their microenvironment at the nano-bio interface can guide their fate. The use of nanotopographical cues, in particular nanorods, nanopillars, nanogrooves, nanofibers, and nanopits, as well as biochemical forces mediated factors, including growth factors, cytokines, and extracellular matrix proteins, can significantly impact stem cell differentiation. These factors were seen as very effective in determining the proliferation and spreading of stem cells. The specific outgrowth of stem cells can be decided with size variation of topographic nanomaterial along with variation in matrix stiffness and surface structure like a special arrangement. The precision chemistry enabled controlled design, synthesis, and chemical composition of ENMs can regulate stem cell behaviors. The parameters of size such as aspect ratio, diameter, and pore size of nanotopographic structures are the main factors for specific termination of stem cells. Protein corona nanoparticles (NPs) have shown a powerful facet in stem cell therapy, where combining specific proteins could facilitate a certain stem cell differentiation and cellular proliferation. Nano-bio reactions implicate the interaction between biological entities and nanoparticles, which can be used to tailor the stem cells' culmination. The ion release can also be a parameter to enhance cellular proliferation and to commit the early differentiation of stem cells. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms underlying the interactions between engineered nano-bio interfaces and stem cells and to develop optimized regenerative medicine and tissue engineering designs.

The Role of Trace Elements and Minerals in Osteoporosis: A Review of Epidemiological and Laboratory Findings. Biomolecules 2023; 13:1006. [PMID: 37371586 DOI: 10.3390/biom13061006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The objective of the present study was to review recent epidemiological and clinical data on the association between selected minerals and trace elements and osteoporosis, as well as to discuss the molecular mechanisms underlying these associations. We have performed a search in the PubMed-Medline and Google Scholar databases using the MeSH terms "osteoporosis", "osteogenesis", "osteoblast", "osteoclast", and "osteocyte" in association with the names of particular trace elements and minerals through 21 March 2023. The data demonstrate that physiological and nutritional levels of trace elements and minerals promote osteogenic differentiation through the up-regulation of BMP-2 and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, as well as other pathways. miRNA and epigenetic effects were also involved in the regulation of the osteogenic effects of trace minerals. The antiresorptive effect of trace elements and minerals was associated with the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. At the same time, the effect of trace elements and minerals on bone health appeared to be dose-dependent with low doses promoting an osteogenic effect, whereas high doses exerted opposite effects which promoted bone resorption and impaired bone formation. Concomitant with the results of the laboratory studies, several clinical trials and epidemiological studies demonstrated that supplementation with Zn, Mg, F, and Sr may improve bone quality, thus inducing antiosteoporotic effects.

Abstract
Osteoblasts play an important role in the regulation of bone homeostasis throughout life. Thus, the damage of osteoblasts can lead to serious skeletal diseases, highlighting the urgent need for novel pharmacological targets. This study introduces chemical genetics strategy by using small molecule forskolin (FSK) as a probe to explore the druggable targets for osteoporosis. Here, this work reveals that transglutaminase 2 (TGM2) served as a major cellular target of FSK to obviously induce osteoblast differentiation. Then, this work identifies a previously undisclosed allosteric site in the catalytic core of TGM2. In particular, FSK formed multiple hydrogen bonds in a saddle-like domain to induce an "open" conformation of the β-sandwich domain in TGM2, thereby promoting the substrate protein crosslinks by incorporating polyamine. Furthermore, this work finds that TGM2 interacted with several mitochondrial homeostasis-associated proteins to improve mitochondrial dynamics and ATP production for osteoblast differentiation. Finally, this work observes that FSK effectively ameliorated osteoporosis in the ovariectomy mice model. Taken together, these findings show a previously undescribed pharmacological allosteric site on TGM2 for osteoporosis treatment, and also provide an available chemical tool for interrogating TGM2 biology and developing bone anabolic agent.

Abstract
Gallium oxide has known beneficial osteo-integrative properties. This may have importance for improving the osteointegration of orthopedic implants. At high concentrations gallium is cytotoxic. Therefore, integration of gallium into implant devices must be carefully controlled to limit its concentration and release. A strategy based on surface doping of gallium although challenging seems an appropriate approach to limit dose amounts to minimize cytotoxicity and maximize osteointegration benefits. In this work we develop a novel form of patterned surface doping via a block copolymer-based surface chemistry that enables very low gallium content but enhanced osteointegration as proven by comprehensive bioassays. Polystyrene-b-poly 4vinyl pyridine (PS-b-P4VP) BCP (block copolymer) films were produced on surfaces. Selective infiltration of the BCP pattern with a gallium salt precursor solution and subsequent UV-ozone treatment produced a surface pattern of gallium oxide nanodots as evidenced by atomic force and scanning electron microscopy. A comprehensive study of the bioactivity was carried out, including antimicrobial and sterility testing, gallium ion release kinetics and the interaction with human marrow mesenchymal stomal cells and mononuclear cells. Comparing the data from osteogenesis media assay tests with osteoclastogenesis tests demonstrated the potential for the gallium oxide nanodot doping to improve osteointegration properties of a surface.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is one of the major public health problems in the world. However, the biomarkers between the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMs) and bone tissue for prognosis of OP have not been well characterized. This study aimed to explore the similarities and differences of the gene expression profiles between the PBMs and bone tissue and identify potential genes, transcription factors (TFs) and hub proteins involved in OP. The patients were enrolled as an experimental group, and healthy subjects served as normal controls. Human whole-genome expression chips were used to analyze gene expression profiles from PBMs and bone tissue. And the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were subsequently studied using Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis. The above DEGs were constructed into protein-protein interaction network. Finally, TF-DEGs regulation networks were constructed. Microarray analysis revealed that 226 DEGs were identified between OP and normal controls in the PBMs, while 2295 DEGs were identified in the bone tissue. And 13 common DEGs were obtained by comparing the 2 tissues. The Gene Ontology analysis indicated that DEGs in the PBMs were more involved in immune response, while DEGs in bone were more involved in renal response and urea transmembrane transport. And the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis indicated almost all of the pathways in the PBMs were overlapped with those in the bone tissue. Furthermore, protein-protein interaction network presented 6 hub proteins: PI3K1, APP, GNB5, FPR2, GNG13, and PLCG1. APP has been found to be associated with OP. Finally, 5 key TFs were identified by TF-DEGs regulation networks analysis (CREB1, RUNX1, STAT3, CREBBP, and GLI1) and were supposed to be associated with OP. This study enhanced our understanding of the pathogenesis of OP. PI3K1, GNB5, FPR2, GNG13, and PLCG1 might be the potential targets of OP.

Abstract
We developed ZnO-assisted 1393 bioactive glass-based scaffold with suitable mechanical properties through foam replica technique and observed to be suitable for bone tissue engineering application. However, the developed scaffolds' ability to facilitate cellular infiltration and integration was further assessed through in vivo studies in suitable animal model. Herein, the pure 1393 bioactive glass (BG) and ZnO-assisted 1393 bioactive glass- (ZnBGs; 1, 2, 4 mol% ZnO substitution for SiO2 in pure BG is named as Z1BG, Z2BG, Z3BG, respectively) based scaffolds were prepared through sol-gel route, followed by foam replica techniques and characterized by a series of in vitro and some in vivo tests. Different cell lines like normal mouse embryonic cells (NIH/3T3), mouse bone marrow stromal cells (mBMSc), peripheral blood mononuclear cells, that is, lymphocytes and monocytes (PBMC) and U2OS (carcinogenic human osteosarcoma cells) were used in determination and comparative analysis of the biological compatibility of the BG and ZnBGs. Also, the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and osteogenic gene expression by primer-specific osteopontin (OPN), osteocalcin (OCN), and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) genes were performed to study osteogenic differentiability of the stromal cells in different BGs. Moreover, radiological and histopathological tests were performed in bone defect model of Wister rats to evaluate the in vivo bone regeneration and healing. Interestingly, these studies demonstrate augmented biological compatibility, and superior osteogenic differentiation in ZnBGs, in particular Z3BG than the pure BG in most cases.

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine changes in the mineral composition of the bones of rats with chemically induced mammary gland cancer and to attempt to establish whether a specific diet modification involving the inclusion of zinc ions in two forms-nano and micro-will affect the mineral composition of the bones. METHODS Female Sprague-Dawley rats were used for the research. The animals were randomly assigned to three experimental groups. All animals were fed a standard diet (Labofeed H), and selected groups additionally received zinc nanoparticles or microparticles in the amount of 4.6 mg/mL. To induce mammary cancer, the animals were given 7,12-dimethyl-1,2-benz[a]anthracene. The content of Ag, As, B, Ba, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Rb, Se, Sr, Tl, U, and V was determined using ICP-MS, while that of Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Na, and Zn was determined using FAAS. RESULTS The use of a diet enriched with zinc nano- or microparticles significantly influenced the content of the elements tested. In the bones of rats fed a diet with zinc nanoparticles, changes were found in the content of Ca, Mg, Zn, Cd, U, V, and Tl, while in the case of the diet supplemented with zinc microparticles, there were differences in six elements-Ca, Mg, B, Cd, Ag, and Pb-compared to animals receiving an unsupplemented diet. CONCLUSIONS The content of elements in the bone tissue of rats in the experimental model indicates disturbances of mineral metabolism in the tissue at an early stage of mammary cancer.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a highly prevalent infectious disease that causes the progressive destruction of the periodontal supporting tissues. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss impairing oral function, aesthetics, and the patient's overall quality of life. Guided and Bone Tissue Regeneration (GTR/BTR) are surgical therapies based on the placement of a membrane that prevents epithelial growth into the defect, allowing the periodontal/bone cells (including stem cells) to regenerate or restore the affected tissues. The success of these therapies is commonly affected by the local bacterial colonization of the membrane area and its fast biodegradation, causing postoperative infections and a premature rupture of the membrane limiting the regeneration process. This study presents the antibacterial and osteogenic differentiation properties of polycaprolactone-gelatin (PCL-G) electrospun membranes modified with ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs). The membranes´ chemical composition, surface roughness, biodegradation, water wettability, and mechanical properties under simulated physiological conditions, were analyzed by the close relationship with their biological properties. The PCL-G membranes modified with 1, 3, and 6% w/w of ZnO-NPs showed a significant reduction in the planktonic and biofilm formation of four clinically relevant bacteria;A. actinomycetemcomitansserotype b, P. gingivalis,E. coli, andS. epidermidis. Additionally, the membranes presented appropriate mechanical properties and biodegradation rates to be potentially used in clinical treatments. Notably, the membranes modified with the lowest concentration of ZnO-NPs (1% w/w) stimulated the production of osteoblast markers and calcium deposits in human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) and were biocompatible to human osteoblasts cells (hFOB). These results suggest that the PCL-G membranes with 1% w/w of ZnO-NPs are high-potential candidates for GTR/BTR treatments, as they were the most effective in terms of better antibacterial effectiveness at a lower NPs-concentration while creating a favorable cellular microenvironment for bone growth.

Abstract
The paper presents the current understanding on the effects of five metals on bone tissue, namely iron, zinc, copper, cadmium, and mercury. Iron, zinc, and copper contribute significantly to human and animal metabolism when present in sufficient amounts, but their excess or shortage increases the risk of developing bone disorders. In contrast, cadmium and mercury serve no physiological purpose and their long-term accumulation damages the osteoarticular system. We discuss the methods of action and interactions between the discussed elements as well as the concentrations of each element in distinct bone structures.

ZDHHC16 restrains osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by inhibiting phosphorylation of CREB. Heliyon 2023; 9:e12788. [PMID: 36685387 PMCID: PMC9852670 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2022.e12788] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2022] [Revised: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 12/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims The osteogenesis of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) plays a critical role in fracture healing. Osteogenic differentiation is regulated by a variety of post-translational modifications, but the function of protein palmitoylation in osteogenesis remains largely unknown. Methods Osteogenic differentiation induction of hBMSCs was used in this study. RT‒qPCR and immunoblotting assays (WB) were used to test marker genes of osteogenic induction. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, ALP staining and Alizarin red staining were performed to evaluate osteogenesis of hBMSCs. Signal finder pathway reporter array, co-immunoprecipitation and WB were applied to elucidate the molecular mechanism. A mouse fracture model was used to verify the in vivo function of the ZDHHC inhibitor. Key findings We revealed that palmitic acid inhibited Runx2 mRNA expression in hBMSCs and identified ZDHHC16 as a potential target palmitoyl acyltransferase. In addition, ZDHHC16 decreased during osteogenic induction. Next, we confirmed the inhibitory function of ZDHHC16 by its knockdown or overexpression during osteogenesis of hBMSCs. Moreover, we illustrated that ZDHHC16 inhibited the phosphorylation of CREB, thus inhibiting osteogenesis of hBMSCs by enhancing the palmitoylation of CREB. With a mouse femur fracture model, we found that 2-BP, a general inhibitor of ZDHHCs, promoted fracture healing in vivo. Thus, we clarified the inhibitory function of ZDHHC16 during osteogenic differentiation. Significance Collectively, these findings highlight the inhibitory function of ZDHHC16 in osteogenesis as a potential therapy method for fracture healing.

Abstract
Zinc is essential for human growth and development. As a trace nutrient, zinc plays important roles in numerous signal transduction pathways involved in distinct physiologic or pathologic processes. Protein phosphorylation is a posttranslational modification which regulates protein activity, degradation, and interaction with other molecules. Protein kinases (PKs) and phosphatases (PPs), with their effects of adding phosphate to or removing phosphate from certain substrates, are master regulators in controlling the phosphorylation of proteins. In this review, we summarize the disturbance of zinc homeostasis and role of zinc disturbance in regulating protein kinases and protein phosphatases in neurodegenerative diseases, with the focus of that in Alzheimer’s disease, providing a new perspective for understanding the mechanisms of these neurologic diseases.

Abstract
Fractures and related complications are a common challenge in the field of skeletal tissue engineering. Vitamin D and calcium are the only broadly available medications for fracture healing, while zinc has been recognized as a nutritional supplement for healthy bones. Here, we aimed to use polaprezinc, an anti-ulcer drug and a chelate form of zinc and L-carnosine, as a supplement for fracture healing. Polaprezinc induced upregulation of osteogenesis-related genes and enhanced the osteogenic potential of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells and osteoclast differentiation potential of mouse bone marrow-derived monocytes. In mouse experimental models with bone fractures, oral administration of polaprezinc accelerated fracture healing and maintained a high number of both osteoblasts and osteoclasts in the fracture areas. Collectively, polaprezinc promotes the fracture healing process efficiently by enhancing the activity of both osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Therefore, we suggest that drug repositioning of polaprezinc would be helpful for patients with fractures. Polaprezinc promoted both osteoblast and osteoclast differentiation and altered YAP protein expression in vitro, and animals treated with polaprezinc showed greater bone formation in their fracture calluses after 21 days.

Abstract
Although engineered nanoparticles loaded with specific growth factors are used to regulate differentiation of stem cells, the low loading efficiency and biocompatibility are still great challenges in tissue repair. A nature-inspired biomimetic delivery system with targeted functions is attractive for enhancing cell activity and controlling cell fate. Herein, a stem cell membrane (SCM)-wrapped dexamethasone (DEX)-loaded zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is constructed, which integrates the synthetic nanomaterials with native plasma membrane, to achieve efficient DEX delivery and DEX-mediated bone repair. The DEX@ZIF-8-SCM enables high DEX loading capacity, modulates the sustained release, and facilitates the specific uptake of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), owing to the porous property of ZIF-8 and the innate targeting capability of SCM. The endocytosed DEX@ZIF-8-SCM shows high cytocompatibility and greatly enhances the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs. Furthermore, RNA-sequencing data reveal that the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-Akt signaling pathways are activated and dominantly involved in the accelerated osteogenesis. In the bone defect model, the administrated DEX@ZIF-8-SCM exerts excellent biocompatibility and effectively promotes bone regeneration. Overall, the SCM-derived biomimetic nanoplatform achieves targeted delivery, excellent biosafety, and enhanced osteogenic differentiation and bone repair, which provides a new and valid strategy for treating various tissue injuries.

Abstract
Zinc is an essential trace element for bone growth and bone homeostasis in the human body. Bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are multipotent progenitors existing in the bone marrow stroma with the capability of differentiating along multiple lineage pathways. Zinc plays a paramount role in BMSCs, which can be spurred differentiating into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, or adipocytes, and modulates the formation and activity of osteoclasts. The expression of related genes also changed during the differentiation of various cell phenotypes. Based on the important role of zinc in BMSC differentiation, using zinc as a therapeutic approach for bone remodeling will be a promising method. This review explores the role of zinc ion in the differentiation of BMSCs into various cell phenotypes and outlines the existing research on their molecular mechanism.

Abstract
Ionic substitutions are a promising strategy to enhance the biological performance of calcium phosphates (CaP) and composite materials for bone tissue engineering applications. However, systematic studies have not been performed on multi-substituted organic/inorganic scaffolds. In this work, highly porous composite scaffolds based on CaPs substituted with Sr2+, Mg2+, Zn2+ and SeO32- ions, and chitosan have been prepared by freeze-gelation technique. The scaffolds have shown highly porous structure, with very well interconnected pores and homogeneously dispersed CaPs, and high stability during 28 days in the degradation medium. Osteogenic potential of human mesenchymal stem cells seeded on scaffolds has been determined by histological, immunohistochemical and RT-qPCR analysis of cultured cells in static and dynamic conditions. Results indicated that ionic substitutions have a beneficial effect on cells and tissues. The scaffolds with multi-substituted CaPs have shown increased expression of osteogenesis related markers and increased phosphate deposits, compared to the scaffolds with non-substituted CaPs.

BMS-470539 Attenuates Oxidative Stress and Neuronal Apoptosis via MC1R/cAMP/PKA/Nurr1 Signaling Pathway in a Neonatal Hypoxic-Ischemic Rat Model. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:4054938. [PMID: 35140838 PMCID: PMC8820941 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4054938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2021] [Accepted: 12/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Neuronal apoptosis induced by oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Previous studies reported that activation of melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) exerts antioxidative stress, antiapoptotic, and neuroprotective effects in various neurological diseases. However, whether MC1R activation can attenuate oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis after hypoxic-ischemic- (HI-) induced brain injury remains unknown. Herein, we have investigated the role of MC1R activation with BMS-470539 in attenuating oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis induced by HI and the underlying mechanisms. 159 ten-day-old unsexed Sprague-Dawley rat pups were used. HI was induced by right common carotid artery ligation followed by 2.5 h of hypoxia. The novel-selective MC1R agonist BMS-470539 was administered intranasally at 1 h after HI induction. MC1R CRISPR KO plasmid and Nurr1 CRISPR KO plasmid were administered intracerebroventricularly at 48 h before HI induction. Percent brain infarct area, short-term neurobehavioral tests, Western blot, immunofluorescence staining, Fluoro-Jade C staining, and MitoSox Staining were performed. We found that the expression of MC1R and Nurr1 increased, peaking at 48 h post-HI. MC1R and Nurr1 were expressed on neurons at 48 h post-HI. BMS-470539 administration significantly attenuated short-term neurological deficits and infarct area, accompanied by a reduction in cleaved caspase-3-positive neurons at 48 h post-HI. Moreover, BMS-470539 administration significantly upregulated the expression of MC1R, cAMP, p-PKA, Nurr1, HO-1, and Bcl-2. However, it downregulated the expression of 4-HNE and Bax, as well as reduced FJC-positive cells, MitoSox-positive cells, and 8-OHdG-positive cells at 48 h post-HI. MC1R CRISPR and Nurr1 CRISPR abolished the antioxidative stress, antiapoptotic, and neuroprotective effects of BMS-470539. In conclusion, our findings demonstrated that BMS-470539 administration attenuated oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis and improved neurological deficits in a neonatal HI rat model, partially via the MC1R/cAMP/PKA/Nurr1 signaling pathway. Early administration of BMS-470539 may be a novel therapeutic strategy for infants with HIE.

Abstract
During the healing and repair of bone defects, uncontrolled inflammatory responses can compromise bone regeneration. Biomaterials with anti-inflammatory activity are favorable for bone tissue regeneration processes. In this work, multifunctional Zn-containing mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (Zn-MBGs) exhibiting favorable osteogenic and anti-inflammatory activities were produced employing a sol-gel method. Zn-MBGs exhibited a mesoporous spherical shape and nanoscale particle size (100 ± 20 nm). They were degradable in cell culture medium, and could release Si, Ca, and Zn in a sustained manner. Zn-MBGs also exhibited a concentration-dependent cellular response. The extract of Zn-MBGs obtained by incubation at 0.1 mg/mL (in culture medium) for 24 h could enhance in vitro mineralization, alkaline phosphatase activity, the expression of osteogenesis-related genes, and the production of intracellular protein osteocalcin of rat bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). Moreover, the extract of Zn-MBGs at 0.1 mg/mL could significantly downregulate the expression of inflammatory genes and the production of inducible nitric oxide in RAW 264.7 cells, particularly under stimulation of inflammatory signals interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Zn-MBGs also inhibited the pro-inflammatory M1 polarization of RAW264.7 cells induced by LPS and IFN-γ. In summary, we successfully synthesized Zn-MBGs with concentration-dependent osteogenic and anti-inflammatory activities. Zn-MBGs show their great potential in immunomodulation strategies for bone regeneration, representing a multifunctional biomaterial that can be applied to regenerate bone defects under inflammatory conditions.

MedComm (Beijing) 2021; 2:778-797. [PMID: 34977877 PMCID: PMC8706747 DOI: 10.1002/mco2.91] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2021] [Revised: 08/23/2021] [Accepted: 08/25/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The pharyngeal arch (PA) is a neural crest (NC)-derived organ that is transiently developed during embryogenesis and is required for the subsequent development of various tissues. However, the role of zinc during PA differentiation from NC progenitor cells is unknown. Here, we found that the metal transporters Slc30a1a and Slc30a1b mediate zinc homeostasis during PA differentiation. Slc30a1-deficient zebrafish develop zinc accumulation in NC cells, with increased expression of stemness markers and PA dorsal genes, and SMART-seq analyses revealed that the genes snai2 and jag1b may serve as downstream targets. Furthermore, functional studies showed that knocking down either snai2 or jag1b rescues PA development in Slc30a1-deficient zebrafish. Notably, we identified the double zinc-finger domain in the transcription factor Snai2 as a zinc-responsive element that regulates jag1b expression. Our findings indicate that the Slc30a1/zinc-snai2-jag1b axis is an essential regulatory network controlling PA differentiation, shedding new light on the function of zinc homeostasis in maintaining NC cell stemness and multipotency in vertebrates.

Molecular insights for an anti-osteoporotic properties of Litsea glutinosa on Saos-2 cells: An in-vitro approach. J Ayurveda Integr Med 2021; 13:100501. [PMID: 34799209 PMCID: PMC8728066 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaim.2021.07.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2021] [Revised: 07/22/2021] [Accepted: 07/23/2021] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease that is identified by the deterioration of micro-architecture of bone tissue, leading to enhanced bone brittleness and a consequential increase in fracture threat. There are many treatments available for osteoporosis such as bisphosphonate therapy, hormonal replacement therapy, herbal therapy etc. For decades, there are several herbs that are attributed to have anti-osteoporotic effects however the candidate genes involved in it remained unknown. In line with this, the present study is focused to elucidate the anti-osteoporotic property of Litsea glutinosa (LG). To understand the proliferative effect and identify involved players, gene expression was studied on the Saos-2 osteocytes in-vitro. The expression profile of candidate genes involved in different signaling pathways such as Egr-2, RUNX2, MAPK3, NFATc1, CREB, ERβ, along with proliferation and apoptotic markers in osteoporosis were selected for the study. The gene expression profile demonstrated a significant up-regulation of Egr-2, RUNX2, MAPK3, CREB, EBβ in the range of 1.5–2.2 folds, whereas NFATc1 was found to be down-regulated up to 0.4 times compared to control when treated with 250 μg/mL of LG. Besides this, anti-apoptosis effect of LG was also supported by flow cytometry results which also proved that LG induces proliferation and inhibits apoptosis, suggesting the proliferative role of LG. In conclusion, the present study gathers the potency of LG extract for its proliferative and anti-apoptotic effect on Saos-2 osteocytes and opens a new avenue for detailing the mechanistic actions of it on mitigating the pathophysiology of osteoporosis.

ZIP10 drives osteosarcoma proliferation and chemoresistance through ITGA10-mediated activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway. JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL & CLINICAL CANCER RESEARCH : CR 2021; 40:340. [PMID: 34706747 PMCID: PMC8549349 DOI: 10.1186/s13046-021-02146-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Background The zinc transporters Zrt- and Irt-related protein (ZIP/SLC39) are overexpressed in human tumors and correlate with poor prognosis; however, their contributions to carcinogenesis and chemoresistance in osteosarcoma (OS) remain unclear. Methods We collected 64 OS patient tissues with (n = 12) or without (n = 52) chemotherapy. The expression levels of ZIP10 were measured by immunohistochemistry and applied to prognostic analysis. ZIP10 was knocked down or overexpressed in OS cell lines to explore its effect on proliferation and chemoresistance. RNA sequencing, quantitative real-time PCR, and western blotting analysis were performed to explore ZIP10-regulated downstream target genes. A xenograft mouse model was established to evaluate the mechanisms by which ZIP10 modulates chemoresistance in OS cells. Results The expression of ZIP10 was significantly induced by chemotherapy and highly associated with the clinical outcomes of OS. Knockdown of ZIP10 suppressed OS cell proliferation and chemoresistance. In addition, ZIP10 promoted Zn content-induced cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) phosphorylation and activation, which are required for integrin α10 (ITGA10) transcription and ITGA10-mediated PI3K/AKT pathway activation. Importantly, ITGA10 stimulated PI3K/AKT signaling but not the classical FAK or SRC pathway. Moreover, overexpression of ZIP10 promoted ITGA10 expression and conferred chemoresistance. Treatment with the CREB inhibitor 666–15 or the PI3K/AKT inhibitor GSK690693 impaired tumor chemoresistance in ZIP10-overexpressing cells. Finally, a xenograft mouse model established by subcutaneous injection of 143B cells confirmed that ZIP10 mediates chemotherapy resistance in OS cells via the ZIP10-ITGA10-PI3K/AKT axis. Conclusions We demonstrate that ZIP10 drives OS proliferation and chemoresistance through ITGA10-mediated activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway, which might serve as a target for OS treatment.

Effects of Extracellular Osteoanabolic Agents on the Endogenous Response of Osteoblastic Cells. Cells 2021; 10:cells10092383. [PMID: 34572032 PMCID: PMC8471159 DOI: 10.3390/cells10092383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2021] [Revised: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 09/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
The complex multidimensional skeletal organization can adapt its structure in accordance with external contexts, demonstrating excellent self-renewal capacity. Thus, optimal extracellular environmental properties are critical for bone regeneration and inextricably linked to the mechanical and biological states of bone. It is interesting to note that the microstructure of bone depends not only on genetic determinants (which control the bone remodeling loop through autocrine and paracrine signals) but also, more importantly, on the continuous response of cells to external mechanical cues. In particular, bone cells sense mechanical signals such as shear, tensile, loading and vibration, and once activated, they react by regulating bone anabolism. Although several specific surrounding conditions needed for osteoblast cells to specifically augment bone formation have been empirically discovered, most of the underlying biomechanical cellular processes underneath remain largely unknown. Nevertheless, exogenous stimuli of endogenous osteogenesis can be applied to promote the mineral apposition rate, bone formation, bone mass and bone strength, as well as expediting fracture repair and bone regeneration. The following review summarizes the latest studies related to the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblastic cells, enhanced by mechanical forces or supplemental signaling factors (such as trace metals, nutraceuticals, vitamins and exosomes), providing a thorough overview of the exogenous osteogenic agents which can be exploited to modulate and influence the mechanically induced anabolism of bone. Furthermore, this review aims to discuss the emerging role of extracellular stimuli in skeletal metabolism as well as their potential roles and provide new perspectives for the treatment of bone disorders.

Abstract
Bacteria are one of the significant causes of infection in the body after scaffold implantation. Effective use of nanotechnology to overcome this problem is an exciting and practical solution. Nanoparticles can cause bacterial degradation by the electrostatic interaction with receptors and cell walls. Simultaneously, the incorporation of antibacterial materials such as zinc and graphene in nanoparticles can further enhance bacterial degradation. In the present study, zinc-doped hydroxyapatite/graphene was synthesized and characterized as a nanocomposite material possessing both antibacterial and bioactive properties for bone tissue engineering. After synthesizing the zinc-doped hydroxyapatite nanoparticles using a mechanochemical process, they were composited with reduced graphene oxide. The nanoparticles and nanocomposite samples were extensively investigated by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy. Their antibacterial behaviors against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were studied. The antibacterial properties of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles were found to be improved more than 2.7 and 3.4 times after zinc doping and further compositing with graphene, respectively. In vitro cell assessment was investigated by a cell viability test and alkaline phosphatase activity using mesenchymal stem cells, and the results showed that hydroxyapatite nanoparticles in the culture medium, in addition to non-toxicity, led to enhanced proliferation of bone marrow stem cells. Furthermore, zinc doping in combination with graphene significantly increased alkaline phosphatase activity and proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells. The antibacterial activity along with cell biocompatibility/bioactivity of zinc-doped hydroxyapatite/graphene nanocomposite are the highly desirable and suitable biological properties for bone tissue engineering successfully achieved in this work.

Abstract
Zinc is a trace element in human body involved in many biological processes. It is critical for cell growth and acts as a cofactor for the structure and function of a wide range of cellular proteins such as enzymes. Mounting evidence has shown the involvement of intracellular zinc in the bone-related biological processes such as bone growth, homeostasis, and regeneration; however, the molecular mechanism(s) whereby zinc impels tumorigenesis in bone remains largely unexplored. In this article, selective outline related to the content of intracellular zinc in osteosarcoma cells was provided, and its correlation with signaling molecules that are activated and consequently guide the cells toward tumorigenesis or osteogenesis was discussed. Based on preclinical and clinical evidence, dysregulation of zinc homeostasis, both at intracellular and tissue level, has the main role in the pathogenesis of osteosarcoma. Based on the intracellular zinc content, this element could have a direct role in the dynamics of bone cell transformation and tumor development and play an indirect role in the modulation of the inflammatory and pro/antitumorigenic responses in immune cells. In this context, zinc transporters and the proteins containing zinc domain are regulated by the availability of zinc, playing a crucial role in bone cell transformation and differentiation. According to recent studies, it seems that intracellular zinc levels could be considered as an early prognosis marker. Besides, identification and targeting of zinc-dependent signaling molecules could tilt the balance of life and death toward the latter in chemoresistant malignant cells and may pave a way for designing of the novel osteosarcoma treatment strategies.

Abstract
We evaluated, in vitro, the interactions between cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) during the proliferation and differentiation process using bone MC3T3-E1 cell line.Cells were treated with CdCl2 and/or ZnCl2 for 24 and 48 h and 5 µM CdCl2 was found as low cytotoxic dose and 25 µM ZnCl2 as the best Zn treatment for cell proliferation. Gene expression of some bone markers (Runx2, collagen α1 (Colα1), osteocalcin (Oc), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bone sialoprotein (BSP)) was studied at 24, 48 and 72 h.Treatment by CdCl2 depressed Runx2, Colα1, and BSP mRNA levels after 24 h. Oc and ALP gene expression was found to be decreased after 72 h.CdCl2 -exposure decreased ALP activity and Ca deposit in matrix. In concomitant treatment by CdCl2 and ZnCl2, gene expression of osteoblastic markers was found to be up-regulated (p < 0, 05) compared to CdCl2 treated cells, ALP staining and mineralization were increased.Our results show that Zn could prevent Cd-induced toxicity on MC3T3-E1 cells, probably through the restoration of Runx2, col α1, BSP, ALP and Oc and gene expression inhibited by Cd.

Abstract
Glass polyalkenoate cements (GPCs) are under investigation as potential bone adhesives, as they may provide an alternative to polymethylmethacrylate-based cements. GPCs containing strontium (Sr) and zinc (Zn) in place of aluminium (Al) are of particular interest because these ions are known stimulators of osteoprogenitor differentiation. GPCs have been manufactured from a novel bioactive glass (SiO2 :0.48, ZnO:0.36, CaO:0.12, SrO:0.04) in the past, but, while such materials have been assessed for their influence on viability, their influence on osteogenic function has not been investigated until now. For this study, two GPCs were formulated from the same glass precursor evaluated in previous studies. These GPCs were named GPC A and GPC B, and they differed in glass particle size, polyacrylic acid molecular weight, and their powder: liquid ratios. The effect of these two GPCs on osteogenic differentiation of primary rat osteoblasts were evaluated using three culture systems: culture with dissolution extracts, indirect contact with transwell-inserts and direct contact. Additionally, the degradation characteristics of GPCs were assessed, including their interfacial pH and surrounding pH. The experimental outcomes revealed that collagen deposition, alkaline phosphatase expression, and mineralization were largely dependent on GPC composition as well as the mode of interaction with cells. These markers were found to be significantly elevated in response to GPC A's dissolution products. However, osteogenic differentiation was inhibited when osteoblasts were cultured indirectly and directly with GPCs, with, overall, GPC B significantly outperforming GPC A. These results suggest that GPC degradation products effect osteogenic differentiation in a dose-dependent manner.

[PMID: 34175562 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2021.120977] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2021] [Revised: 06/09/2021] [Accepted: 06/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Semi-malignant giant cell tumors of bone (GCTB) are associated with large osteolytic defects and significant bone destructions. Surgical resection remains the standard therapy that is, however, associated with very high recurrence rates. Bioactive glasses (BGs) that are osteogenic but under certain conditions also cytotoxic might be suitable to achieve biological reconstruction with simultaneous reduction of tumor recurrence in GCTB. In this study, a concentration and time dependent cytotoxic effect of five different BG compositions towards neoplastic GCTB cells was identified while bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells were mostly unaffected. Time course and extent of the cytotoxic effect were dependent on the BG composition and were not associated with caspases activation, indicating that apoptotic mechanisms are not involved. Rather, detection of BG-induced disruption of the cell membranes and a rapid drop of intracellular HMG1 (High Mobility Group Box 1 protein) levels suggest a necrotic cell death. Notably, the cytotoxic effects were dependent on a direct contact of cells and BGs and could not be observed using indirect cultivation settings. Our data suggest that BGs might represent promising materials for the treatment of GCTB in order to reduce tumor recurrence with simultaneous enhancement of bone regeneration.

Zinc Sulfate Stimulates Osteogenic Phenotypes in Periosteum-Derived Cells and Co-Cultures of Periosteum-Derived Cells and THP-1 Cells. Life (Basel) 2021; 11:life11050410. [PMID: 33946199 PMCID: PMC8144993 DOI: 10.3390/life11050410] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2021] [Revised: 04/26/2021] [Accepted: 04/29/2021] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Coupling between osteoblast-mediated bone formation and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption maintains both mechanical integrity and mineral homeostasis. Zinc is required for the formation, mineralization, growth, and maintenance of bones. We examined the effects of zinc sulfate on osteoblastic differentiation of human periosteum-derived cells (hPDCs) and osteoclastic differentiation of THP-1 cells. Zinc sulfate enhanced the osteoblastic differentiation of hPDCs; however, it did not affect the osteoclastic differentiation of THP-1 cells. The levels of extracellular signaling-related kinase (ERK) were strongly increased during osteoblastic differentiation in zinc sulfate-treated hPDCs, compared with other mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs). Zinc sulfate also promoted osteogenesis in hPDCs and THP-1 cells co-cultured with the ratio of one osteoclast to one osteoblast, as indicated by alkaline phosphatase levels, mineralization, and cellular calcium contents. In addition, the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) ratio was decreased in the zinc sulfate-treated co-cultures. Our results suggest that zinc sulfate enhances osteogenesis directly by promoting osteoblastic differentiation and osteogenic activities in osteoblasts and indirectly by inhibiting osteoclastic bone resorption through a reduced RANKL/OPG ratio in co-cultured osteoblasts and osteoclasts.

Metallothionein 3 Promotes Osteoblast Differentiation in C2C12 Cells via Reduction of Oxidative Stress. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22094312. [PMID: 33919218 PMCID: PMC8122383 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22094312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2021] [Revised: 04/17/2021] [Accepted: 04/19/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Metallothioneins (MTs) are intracellular cysteine-rich proteins, and their expressions are enhanced under stress conditions. MTs are recognized as having the ability to regulate redox balance in living organisms; however, their role in regulating osteoblast differentiation is still unclear. In this research, we found that the expression of MT3, one member of the MT protein family, was specifically upregulated in the differentiation process of C2C12 myoblasts treated with bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4). Transfection with MT3-overexpressing plasmids in C2C12 cells enhanced their differentiation to osteoblasts, together with upregulating the protein expression of bone specific transcription factors runt-related gene 2 (Runx2), Osterix, and distal-less homeobox 5 (Dlx5). Additionally, MT3 knockdown performed the opposite. Further studies revealed that overexpression of MT3 decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in C2C12 cells treated with BMP4, and MT3 silencing enhanced ROS production. Treating C2C12 cells with antioxidant N-acetylcysteine also promoted osteoblast differentiation, and upregulated Runx2/Osterix/Dlx5, while ROS generator antimycin A treatment performed the opposite. Finally, antimycin A treatment inhibited osteoblast differentiation and Runx2/Osterix/Dlx5 expression in MT3-overexpressing C2C12 cells. These findings identify the role of MT3 in osteoblast differentiation and indicate that MT3 may have interesting potential in the field of osteogenesis research.
