Abstract
Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a pleiotropic cytokine synthesised primarily by mononuclear cells; it has a potent pro-inflammatory effect, playing a crucial role in metabolic, immune, and inflammatory diseases. This cytokine has been studied in various biological systems. In bone tissue, TNF-α plays an integral role in skeletal disorders such as osteoporosis, fracture repair and rheumatoid arthritis through its involvement in regulating the balance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts, mediating inflammatory responses, promoting angiogenesis and exacerbating synovial proliferation. The biological effect TNF-α exerts in this context is determined by a combination of the signalling pathway it activates, the type of receptor it binds, and the concentration and duration of exposure. This review summarises the participation and pathophysiological role of TNF-α in osteoporosis, bone damage repair, chronic immunoinflammatory bone disease and spinal cord injury, and discusses its main mechanisms.

[PMID: 37591875 PMCID: PMC10435563 DOI: 10.1038/s41420-023-01562-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Foxo1 upregulation is linked to defective fracture healing under diabetic conditions. Previous studies demonstrated that diabetes upregulates Foxo1 expression and activation and diabetes impairs ciliogenesis resulting in defective fracture repair. However, the mechanism by which diabetes causes cilia loss during fracture healing remains elusive. We report here that streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) dramatically increased Foxo1 expression in femoral fracture calluses, which thereby caused a significant decrease in the expression of IFT80 and primary cilia number. Ablation of Foxo1 in osteoblasts in OSXcretTAFoxo1f/f mice rescued IFT80 expression and ciliogenesis and restored bone formation and mechanical strength in diabetic fracture calluses. In vitro, advanced glycation end products (AGEs) impaired cilia formation in osteoblasts and reduced the production of a mineralizing matrix, which were rescued by Foxo1 deletion. Mechanistically, AGEs increased Foxo1 expression and transcriptional activity to inhibit IFT80 expression causing impaired cilia formation. Thus, our findings demonstrate that diabetes impairs fracture healing through Foxo1 mediated inhibition of ciliary IFT80 expression and primary cilia formation, resulting in impaired osteogenesis. Inhibition of Foxo1 and/or restoration of cilia formation has the potential to promote diabetes-impaired fracture healing.

Alharbi MA, Graves DT. FOXO 1 deletion in chondrocytes rescues diabetes-impaired fracture healing by restoring angiogenesis and reducing apoptosis. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1136117. [PMID: 37576976 PMCID: PMC10421747 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1136117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Diabetes mellitus is associated with higher risks of long bone and jaw fractures. It is also associated with a higher incidence of delayed union or non-union. Our previous investigations concluded that a dominant mechanism was the premature loss of cartilage during endochondral bone formation associated with increased osteoclastic activities. We tested the hypothesis that FOXO1 plays a key role in diabetes-impaired angiogenesis and chondrocyte apoptosis. Methods Closed fractures of the femur were induced in mice with lineage-specific FOXO1 deletion in chondrocytes. The control group consisted of mice with the FOXO1 gene present. Mice in the diabetic group were rendered diabetic by multiple streptozotocin injections, while mice in the normoglycemic group received vehicle. Specimens were collected 16 days post fracture. The samples were fixed, decalcified, and embedded in paraffin blocks for immunostaining utilizing anti cleaved caspase-3 or CD31 specific antibodies compared with matched control IgG antibody, and apoptosis by the TUNEL assay. Additionally, ATDC5 chondrocytes were examined in vitro by RT-PCR, luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays. Results Diabetic mice had ~ 50% fewer blood vessels compared to normoglycemic mice FOXO1 deletion in diabetic mice partially rescued the low number of blood vessels (p < 0.05). Additionally, diabetes increased caspase-3 positive and apoptotic chondrocytes by 50%. FOXO1 deletion in diabetic animals blocked the increase in both to levels comparable to normoglycemic animals (p < 0.05). High glucose (HG) and high advanced glycation end products (AGE) levels stimulated FOXO1 association with the caspase-3 promoter in vitro, and overexpression of FOXO1 increased caspase-3 promoter activity in luciferase reporter assays. Furthermore, we review previous mechanistic studies demonstrating that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibition reverses impaired angiogenesis and reverses high levels of chondrocyte apoptosis that occur in fracture healing. Discussion New results presented here, in combination with recent studies, provide a comprehensive overview of how diabetes, through high glucose levels, AGEs, and increased inflammation, impair the healing process by interfering with angiogenesis and stimulating chondrocyte apoptosis. FOXO1 in diabetic fractures plays a negative role by reducing new blood vessel formation and increasing chondrocyte cell death which is distinct from its role in normal fracture healing.

Biomedicines 2023; 11:2031. [PMID: 37509670 PMCID: PMC10377295 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11072031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Norisoboldine (NOR), the major isoquinoline alkaloid constituent of a Chinese traditional medicine Radix Linderae, has been demonstrated to inhibit osteoclast differentiation and improve arthritis. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of NOR on bone fracture healing and the underlying mechanisms correlated with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) differentiation to chondrocytes. Our results showed that NOR inhibits the tibia fracture healing process by suppressing cartilage formation, which leads to less endochondral ossification, indicated by less osterix and collage I signaling at the fracture site. Moreover, NOR significantly reduced the differentiation of primary BMSCs to chondrocytes in vitro by reducing the bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) signaling. These findings imply that NOR negatively regulates the healing of the tibial midshaft fracture, which might delay the union of the fractures and should be noticed when used in other treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute bone loss after fracture is associated with various effects on the complete recovery process and a risk of secondary fractures among patients. Studies have reported similarities in pathophysiological mechanisms involved in acute bone loss after fractures and osteoporosis. However, given the silence nature of bone loss and bone metabolism complexities, the actual underlying pathophysiological mechanisms have yet to be fully elucidated. AIM OF REVIEW To elaborate the latest findings in basic research with a focus on acute bone loss after fracture. To briefly highlight potential therapeutic targets and current representative drugs. To arouse researchers' attention and discussion on acute bone loss after fracture. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW Bone loss after fracture is associated with immobilization, mechanical unloading, blood supply damage, sympathetic nerve regulation, and crosstalk between musculoskeletals among other factors. Current treatment strategies rely on regulation of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, therefore, there is a need to elucidate on the underlying mechanisms of acute bone loss after fractures to inform the development of efficacious and safe drugs. In addition, attention should be paid towards ensuring long-term skeletal health.

Abstract
Fracture healing is a complex physiological process in which angiogenesis plays an essential role. Microfibril-associated glycoprotein-2 (MAGP2) has been reported to possess a proangiogenic activity via integrin αvβ3, yet its role in bone repair is unexplored. In this study, a critical-sized femoral defect (2 mm) was created in mice, followed by the delivery of an adenovirus-based MAGP2 overexpression vector or its negative control at the fracture site. At days 7, 14, 21, and 28 postfracture, bone fracture healing was evaluated by radiography, micro-computed tomography, and histopathologic analysis. Adenovirus-based MAGP2 overexpression vector-treated mice exhibited increased bone mineral density and bone volume fraction. MAGP2 overexpression contributed to an advanced stage of endochondral ossification and induced cartilage callus into the bony callus. Further analysis indicated that MAGP2 was associated with enhanced angiogenesis, as evidenced by marked MAGP2 and integrin αvβ3 costaining and increased endothelial cell markers such as endomucin and CD31 levls, as well as elevated phosphorylation of protein tyrosine kinase 2 (PTK2) and AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 (AKT) in the callus. In vitro, recombinant human MAGP2 treatment enhanced the viability, migration, and tube formation ability of human microvascular endothelial cells, which was partially reversed by integrin αvβ3 inhibition or MK-2206, a specific AKT inhibitor. Inhibition of integrin αvβ3 abolished MAGP2-induced PTK2 and AKT activation. Taken together, our data provide the first evidence that MAGP2 promotes angiogenesis and bone formation by activating the integrin αvβ3/PTK2/AKT signaling pathway.

Abstract
Endocan is a small soluble proteoglycan (PG) known to be involved in inflammation and angiogenesis. Increased endocan expression was found in the synovia of arthritic patients and chondrocytes stimulated with IL-1ß. Considering these findings, we aimed to investigate the effects of endocan knockdown on the modulation of pro-angiogenic molecules expression in a model of IL-1ß-induced inflammation in human articular chondrocytes. Endocan, VEGF-A, MMP-9, MMP-13, and VEGFR-2 expression was measured in both normal and endocan knockdown chondrocytes stimulated with IL-1ß. VEGFR-2 and NF-kB activation were also measured. Results have shown that endocan, VEGF-A, VEGFR-2, MMP-9, and MMP-13 were significantly up-regulated during IL-1ß-induced inflammation; interestingly, the expression of such pro-angiogenic molecules and NF-kB activation were significantly reduced by endocan knockdown. These data support the hypothesis that endocan released by activated chondrocytes may be involved in the mechanisms that stimulate cell migration and invasion, as well as angiogenesis, in the pannus of arthritic joints.

Abstract
Patients with bone and muscle loss from prolonged disuse have higher risk of falls and subsequent fragility fractures. In addition, fracture patients with continued disuse and/or delayed physical rehabilitation have worse clinical outcomes compared to individuals with immediate weight-bearing activity following diaphyseal fracture. However, the effects of prior disuse followed by physical reambulation on fracture healing cellular processes and adjacent bone and skeletal muscle recovery post-injury remains poorly defined. To bridge this knowledge gap and inform future treatment and rehabilitation strategies for fractures, a preclinical model of fracture healing with a history of prior unloading with and without reambulation was employed. First, skeletally mature male and female C57BL/6J mice (18 weeks) underwent hindlimb unloading by tail suspension (HLU) for 3 weeks to induce significant bone and muscle loss modeling enhanced bone fragility. Next, mice had their right femur fractured by open surgical dissection (stabilized with 24-gauge pin). The, mice were randomly assigned to continued HLU or allowed normal weight-bearing reambulation (HLU + R). Mice given normal cage activity throughout the experiment served as healthy age-matched controls. All mice were sacrificed 4-days (DPF4) or 14-days (DPF14) following fracture to assess healing and uninjured hindlimb musculoskeletal properties (6-10 mice per treatment/biological sex). We found that continued disuse following fracture lead to severely diminished uninjured hindlimb skeletal muscle mass (gastrocnemius and soleus) and femoral bone volume adjacent to the fracture site compared to healthy age-matched controls across mouse sexes. Furthermore, HLU led to significantly decreased periosteal expansion (DPF4) and osteochondral tissue formation by DPF14, and trends in increased osteoclastogenesis (DPF14) and decreased woven bone vascular area (DPF14). In contrast, immediate reambulation for 2 weeks after fracture, even following a period of prolonged disuse, was able to increase hindlimb skeletal tissue mass and increase osteochondral tissue formation, albeit not to healthy control levels, in both mouse sexes. Furthermore, reambulation attenuated osteoclast formation seen in woven bone tissue undergoing disuse. Our results suggest that weight-bearing skeletal loading in both sexes immediately following fracture may improve callus healing and prevent further fall risk by stimulating skeletal muscle anabolism and decreasing callus resorption compared to minimal or delayed rehabilitation regimens.

Abstract
Diabetes-associated bone complications lead to fragile bone mechanical strength and osteoporosis, aggravating the disease burden of patients. Advanced evidence shows that chronic hyperglycemia and metabolic intermediates, such as inflammatory factor, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and advanced glycation end products (AGEs), are regarded as dominant hazardous factors of bone complications, whereas the pathophysiological mechanisms are complex and controversial. By establishing a diabetic Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat model and diabetic bone loss cell model in vitro, we confirmed that diabetes impaired primary cilia and led to bone loss, while adding Icariin (ICA) could relieve the inhibitions. Mechanistically, ICA could scavenge ROS to maintain the mitochondrial and primary cilia homeostasis of osteoblasts. Intact primary cilia acted as anchoring and modifying sites of Gli2, thereby activating the primary cilia/Gli2/osteocalcin signaling pathway to promote osteoblast differentiation. All results suggest that ICA has potential as a therapeutic drug targeting bone loss induced by diabetes.

Abstract
Despite the recent advances in reconstructive orthopedics; fracture union is a challenge to bone regeneration. Concurrent angiogenesis is a complex process governed by events, delicately entwined with osteogenesis. However, poorly perfused scaffolds have lower success rates; necessitating the need for a better vascular component, which is important for the delivery of nutrients, oxygen, waste elimination, recruitment of cells for optimal bone repair. This review highlights the latest strategies to promote biomaterial-based scaffold vascularization by incorporation of cells, growth factors, inorganic ions, etc. into natural or synthetic polymers, ceramic materials, or composites of organic and inorganic compounds. Furthermore, it emphasizes structural modifications, biophysical stimuli, and natural molecules to fabricate scaffolds aiding the genesis of dense vascularization following their implantation to manifest a compatible regenerative microenvironment without graft rejection.

Abstract
The primary cilium is a nonmotile microtubule-based organelle in most vertebrate cell types. The primary cilium plays a critical role in tissue development and homeostasis by sensing and transducing various signaling pathways. Ciliary proteins such as intraflagellar transport (IFT) proteins as well as ciliary motor proteins, kinesin and dynein, comprise a bidirectional intraflagellar transport system needed for cilia formation and function. Mutations in ciliary proteins that lead to loss or dysfunction of primary cilia cause ciliopathies such as Jeune syndrome and Ellis-van Creveld syndrome and cause abnormalities in tooth development. These diseases exhibit severe skeletal and craniofacial dysplasia, highlighting the significance of primary cilia in skeletal development. Cilia are necessary for the propagation of hedgehog, transforming growth factor β, platelet-derived growth factor, and fibroblast growth factor signaling during osteogenesis and chondrogenesis. Ablation of ciliary proteins such as IFT80 or IFT20 blocks cilia formation, which inhibits osteoblast differentiation, osteoblast polarity, and alignment and reduces bone formation. Similarly, cilia facilitate chondrocyte differentiation and production of a cartilage matrix. Cilia also play a key role in mechanosensing and are needed for increased bone formation in response to mechanical forces.

Abstract
Host inflammatory immune response comprises an essential element of the bone healing process, where M2 polarization allegedly contributes to a favorable healing outcome. In this context, immunoregulatory molecules that modulate host response, including macrophage polarization, are considered potential targets for improving bone healing. This study aims to evaluate the role of the immunoregulatory molecules VIP (Vasoactive intestinal peptide) and PACAP (Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide), which was previously described to favor the development of the M2 phenotype, in the process of alveolar bone healing in C57Bl/6 (WT) mice. Experimental groups were submitted to tooth extraction and maintained under control conditions or treated with VIP or PACAP were evaluated by microtomographic (µCT), histomorphometric, immunohistochemical, and molecular analysis at 0, 3, 7, and 14 days to quantify tissue healing and host response indicators at the healing site. Gene expression analysis demonstrates the effectiveness of VIP or PACAP in modulating host response, evidenced by the early dominance of an M2-type response, which was paralleled by a significant increase in M2 (CD206+) in treated groups. However, despite the marked effect of M1/M2 balance in the healing sites, the histomorphometric analysis does not reveal an equivalent/corresponding modulation of the healing process. µCT reveals a slight increase in bone matrix volume and the trabecular thickness number in the PACAP group, while histomorphometric analyzes reveal a slight increase in the VIP group, both at a 14-d time-point; despite the increased expression of osteogenic factors, osteoblastic differentiation, activity, and maturation markers in both VIP and PACAP groups. Interestingly, a lower number of VIP and PACAP immunolabeled cells were observed in the treated groups, suggesting a reduction in endogenous production. In conclusion, while both VIP and PACAP treatments presented a significant immunomodulatory effect with potential for increased healing, no major changes were observed in bone healing outcome, suggesting that the signals required for bone healing under homeostatic conditions are already optimal, and additional signals do not improve an already optimal process. Further studies are required to elucidate the role of macrophage polarization in the bone healing process.

Abstract
Diabetes-associated fracture risk and impaired fracture healing represents a serious health threat. It is well known that type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) impairs fracture healing due to its effect on osteoblasts and their progenitor cells. Previous studies have showed that primary cilia and intraflagellar transport protein 80 (IFT80) are critical for bone formation. However, whether TIDM impairs fracture healing due to influencing ciliary gene expression and cilia formation is unknown. Here, we investigated the effect of T1DM on primary cilia in a streptozotocin induced diabetes mouse model and examined the impact of cilia on fracture healing in osteoblasts by deletion of IFT80 in osteoblast linage using osterix (OSX)-cre (OSXcretTAIFT80f/f). The results showed that diabetes inhibited ciliary gene expression and primary cilia formation to an extent that was similar to normoglycemic mice with IFT80 deletion. Moreover, diabetic mice and normoglycemic mice with cilia loss in osteoblasts (OSXcretTAIFT80f/f) both exhibited delayed fracture healing with significantly reduced bone density and mechanical strength as well as with reduced expression of osteoblast markers, decreased angiogenesis and proliferation of bone lining cells at the fracture sites. In vitro studies showed that advanced glycation end products (AGEs) downregulated IFT80 expression in osteoblast progenitors. Moreover, AGEs and IFT80 deletion significantly reduced cilia number and length which inhibited differentiation of primary osteoblast precursors. Thus, this study for the first time report that primary cilia are essential for bone regeneration during fracture healing and loss of cilia caused by diabetes in osteoblasts resulted in defective diabetic fracture healing.

Abstract
Cartilage and joint damage easily degenerates cartilage and turns into osteoarthritis (OA), which seriously affects human life and work, and has no cure currently. The temporal and spatial changes of multiple microenvironments upon the damage of cartilage and joint are noticed, including the emergences of inflammation, bone remodeling, blood vessels, and nerves, as well as alterations of extracellular and pericellular matrix, oxygen tension, biomechanics, underneath articular cartilage tissues, and pH value. This review summarizes the existing literatures on microenvironmental changes, mechanisms, and their negative effects on cartilage regeneration following cartilage and joint damage. We conclude that time-dependently rebuilding the multiple normal microenvironments of damaged cartilage is the key for cartilage regeneration after systematic studies for the timing and correlations of various microenvironment changes.

Abstract
Angiogenesis is a crucial event in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Arsenic trioxide (ATO, As2O3) has been reported to inhibit synovial angiogenesis via the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-centered functional module. However, the exact mechanisms of ATO on VEGF modulation remain unclear. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are emerging as important regulators in RA, and the detailed mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we reported a circRNA (circHIPK3), the expression of which was significantly increased in RA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RA-FLS) after TNF-α induction. Moreover, VEGF content in the supernatants of a RA-FLS and human dermal microvascular endothelial cell (HDMEC) co-culture as well as in RA-FLS co-cultured was significantly elevated in accordance with circHIPK3 levels. This increased VEGF expression may significantly upregulate endothelial tube formation and transwell migration, as well as microvessel sprouting in the ex vivo aortic ring assay. CircHIPK3 was further illustrated to be a sponge for the forkhead box transcription factor O1 (FOXO1)-targeting miR-149-5p, leading to the changing expression of the downstream VEGF. These networked factors mainly form a functional module regulating angiogenesis in RA-FLS, and the expression of this functional module could be significantly downregulated by ATO with a consistently reduced vascularity in vitro. In the collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice model, an intra-articular injection of the adeno-associated virus-si-circHIPK3 or ATO was demonstrated to alleviate the synovial VEGF expression and arthritis severity respectively. Thus, we elucidate a previously unknown mechanism between circRNAs and RA, and ATO has a significant protective effect on RA-FLS and CIA synovium via its inhibition of the angiogenic functional module of circHIPK3/miR-149-5p/FOXO1/VEGF, suggesting great potential for the combination therapy of ATO with circHIPK3 silencing.

Abstract
The pathological characteristics of osteoarthritis are cartilage matrix degradation, chondrocytes apoptosis, and low-grade inflammation of the joint. Recent studies have shown that blood vessels grow from the subchondral bone to the articular cartilage. However, the relationship among inflammation, angiogenesis, and chondrocyte apoptosis is still unclear. We found that chondrocytes could secrete chemokines and VEGF to promote the migration of vascular endothelial cells in response to TNF-α stimulation. The invasion of blood vessels leads to increased oxygen tension in the local environment, which increased the expression of SETD7 in chondrocytes by activating the JAK-STAT5 pathway. The bond of phosphorylated STAT5 and the specific locus in the promoter of SETD7 directly increased the transcription of SETD7. On the one hand, SETD7-regulated chemokine expression by forming a positive loop; on the other hand, SETD7-mediated chondrocyte apoptosis by inhibiting the nuclear localization of HIF-1α. In this study, we discovered a novel function of chondrocytes as mediators of inflammation and angiogenesis. Our study demonstrates that SETD7 is a potential molecular target to prevent OA development and progression.

Abstract
Fracture healing is a multistage process characterized by inflammation, cartilage formation, bone deposition, and remodeling. Chondrocytes are important in producing cartilage that forms the initial anlagen for the hard callus needed to stabilize the fracture site. We examined the role of FOXO1 by selective ablation of FOXO1 in chondrocytes mediated by Col2α1 driven Cre recombinase. Experimental mice with lineage-specific FOXO1 deletion (Col2α1Cre+FOXO1L/L) and negative control littermates (Col2α1Cre-FOXO1L/L) were used for in vivo, closed fracture studies. Unexpectedly, we found that in the early phases of fracture healing, FOXO1 deletion significantly increased the amount of cartilage formed, whereas, in later periods, FOXO1 deletion led to a greater loss of cartilage. FOXO1 was functionally important as its deletion in chondrocytes led to diminished bone formation on day 22. Mechanistically, the early effects of FOXO1 deletion were linked to increased proliferation of chondrocytes through enhanced expression of cell cycle genes that promote proliferation and reduced expression of those that inhibit it and increased expression of cartilage matrix genes. At later time points experimental mice with FOXO1 deletion had greater loss of cartilage, enhanced formation of osteoclasts, increased IL-6 and reduced numbers of M2 macrophages. These results identify FOXO1 as a transcription factor that regulates chondrocyte behavior by limiting the early expansion of cartilage and preventing rapid cartilage loss at later phases.

Abstract
Sleep maintains the function of the entire body through homeostasis. Chronic sleep deprivation (CSD) is a prime health concern in the modern world. Previous reports have shown that CSD has profound negative effects on brain vasculature at both the cellular and molecular levels, and that this is a major cause of cognitive dysfunction and early vascular ageing. However, correlations among sleep deprivation (SD), brain vascular changes and ageing have barely been looked into. This review attempts to correlate the alterations in the levels of major neurotransmitters (acetylcholine, adrenaline, GABA and glutamate) and signalling molecules (Sirt1, PGC1α, FOXO, P66shc, PARP1) in SD and changes in brain vasculature, cognitive dysfunction and early ageing. It also aims to connect SD-induced loss in the number of dendritic spines and their effects on alterations in synaptic plasticity, cognitive disabilities and early vascular ageing based on data available in scientific literature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first article providing a pathophysiological basis to link SD to brain vascular ageing.

Abstract
Primary cilia are essential cellular organelles that are anchored at the cell surface membrane to sense and transduce signaling. Intraflagellar transport (IFT) proteins are indispensable for cilia formation and function. Although major advances in understanding the roles of these proteins in bone development have been made, the mechanisms by which IFT proteins regulate bone repair have not been identified. We investigated the role of the IFT80 protein in chondrocytes during fracture healing by creating femoral fractures in mice with conditional deletion of IFT80 in chondrocytes utilizing tamoxifen inducible Col2α1-CreER mice. Col2α1cre IFT80f/f mice had smaller fracture calluses than IFT80f/f (control) mice. The max-width and max-callus area were 31% and 48% smaller than those of the control mice, respectively. Col2α1cre IFT80f/f mice formed low-density/porous woven bony tissue with significantly lower ratio of bone volume, Trabecular (Tb) number and Tb thickness, and greater Tb spacing compared to control mice. IFT80 deletion significantly downregulated the expression of angiogenesis markers-VEGF, PDGF and angiopoietin and inhibited fracture callus vascularization. Mechanistically, loss of IFT80 in chondrocytes resulted in a decrease in cilia formation and chondrocyte proliferation rate in fracture callus compared to the control mice. Meanwhile, IFT80 deletion downregulated the TGF-β signaling pathway by inhibiting the expression of TGF-βI, TGF-βR, and phosphorylation of Smad2/3 in the fracture callus. In primary chondrocyte cultures in vitro, IFT80 deletion dramatically reduced chondrocyte proliferation, cilia assembly, and chondrogenic gene expression and differentiation. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that IFT80 and primary cilia play an essential role in fracture healing, likely through controlling chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation, and the TGF-β signaling pathway. © 2019 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Diabetes has a significant and negative impact on wound healing, which involves complex interactions between multiple cell types. Keratinocytes play a crucial role in the healing process by rapidly covering dermal and mucosal wound surfaces to reestablish an epithelial barrier with the outside environment. Keratinocytes produce multiple factors to promote reepithelialization and produce factors that enhance connective tissue repair through the elaboration of mediators that stimulate angiogenesis and production of connective tissue matrix. Among the factors that keratinocytes produce to aid healing are transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), and antioxidants. In a diabetic environment, this program is disrupted, and keratinocytes fail to produce growth factors and instead switch to a program that is detrimental to healing. Changes in keratinocyte behavior have been linked to high glucose and advanced glycation end products that alter the activities of the transcription factor, FOXO1. This review examines reepithelialization and factors produced by keratinocytes that upregulate connective tissue healing and angiogenesis and how they are altered by diabetes.

Abstract
FOXO1 transcription factors affect a number of cell types that are important in the host response. Cell types whose functions are modulated by FOXO1 include keratinocytes in the skin and mucosal dermis, neutrophils and macrophages, dendritic cells, Tregs and B-cells. FOXO1 is activated by bacterial or cytokine stimulation. Its translocation to the nucleus and binding to promoter regions of genes that have FOXO response elements is stimulated by the MAP kinase pathway and inhibited by the PI3 kinase/AKT pathway. Downstream gene targets of FOXO1 include pro-inflammatory signaling molecules (TLR2, TLR4, IL-1β, and TNF-α), wound healing factors (TGF-β, VEGF, and CTGF) adhesion molecules (integrins-β1, -β3, -β6, αvβ3, CD11b, CD18, and ICAM-1), chemokine receptors (CCR7 and CXCR2), B cell regulators (APRIL and BLYS), T-regulatory modulators (Foxp3 and CTLA-4), antioxidants (GPX-2 and cytoglobin), and DNA repair enzymes (GADD45α). Each of the above cell types are found in oral mucosa and modulated by bacteria or an inflammatory microenvironment. FOXO1 contributes to the regulation of these cells, which collectively maintain and repair the epithelial barrier, formation and activation of Tregs that are needed to resolve inflammation, mobilization, infiltration, and activation of anti-bacterial defenses in neutrophils, and the homing of dendritic cells to lymph nodes to induce T-cell and B-cell responses. The goal of the manuscript is to review how the transcription factor, FOXO1, contributes to the activation and regulation of key leukocytes needed to maintain homeostasis and respond to bacterial challenge in oral mucosal tissues. Examples are given with an emphasis on lineage specific deletion of Foxo1 to explore the impact of FOXO1 on cell behavior, inflammation and susceptibility to infection.

Abstract
Diabetes increases the risk of fracture, impairs fracture healing and causes rapid loss of the fracture callus cartilage, which was linked to increased FOXO1 expression in chondrocytes. We recently demonstrated that deletion of FOXO1 in chondrocytes blocked the premature removal of cartilage associated with endochondral bone formation during fracture healing. However, the ultimate impact of this deletion on mechanical strength was not investigated and remains unknown. Closed fractures were induced in Col2α1Cre+.FOXO1L/L mice with lineage specific deletion of FOXO1 in chondrocytes compared to littermate controls. Type 1 diabetes was induced by multiple low dose streptozotocin treatment. Thirty-five days after fracture micro CT analysis showed that diabetes significantly reduced callus volume and bone volume (P < 0.05), both which were reversed by FOXO1 deletion in chondrocytes. Diabetes significantly reduced mechanical strength measured by maximum torque, stiffness, modulus of rigidity and toughness and FOXO1 deletion in diabetic mice rescued each parameter (P < 0.05). Diabetes also reduced both bone volume and mechanical strength in non-fractured femurs. However, FOXO1 deletion did not affect bone volume or strength in non-fractured bone. These results point to the important effect that diabetes has on chondrocytes and show for the first time that the premature removal of cartilage induced by FOXO1 in chondrocytes has a significant impact on the mechanical strength of the healing bone.

Abstract
Osteocyte plays an essential role in bone metabolism by regulating osteoblast and osteoclast activities. Dysfunction or apoptosis of osteocyte will severely endanger the bone homeostasis and result in bone diseases such as osteoporosis. Osteoporosis has been considered as one of the diabetes complications; however, the mechanism is still to be discovered. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs), as the main pathogenic factor of diabetes mellitus, have the capacity to induce osteocyte apoptosis thus sabotaging bone homeostasis. Here, we examined the role of AGE during osteocyte apoptosis and how this effect would affect osteocyte's regulation of osteoblast and osteoclast. Mouse osteocyte-like MLO-Y4 cells were used to study the properties of osteocyte and to examine its biological and pathological function. MTT assay and Annexin V assay showed that AGE significantly induce MLO-Y4 cell apoptosis. qPCR and Western blot results have shown that AGE upregulates proapoptotic gene p53 and its downstream target gene Bax, which leads to enhanced activation of caspase-3, thus inducing apoptosis in MLO-Y4 cells. Increased expression of sclerostin and RANKL in osteocytes has shown that AGE induces osteocyte dysfunction thus severely damaging the bone homeostasis by decreasing osteoblast and increasing osteoclast activities. Furthermore, the role of the transcription factor FOXO1, which is intensely associated with apoptosis, has been determined. Western blot has shown that AGE significantly decreases Akt activities. Immunofluorescence has shown that AGE promotes FOXO1 nuclei localization and enhances FOXO1 expression. Silencing of FOXO1 suppressed AGE-enhanced apoptosis; mRNA and protein expressions of cleaved caspase-3, sclerostin, and RANKL were downregulated as well. Moreover, exogenous FOXO1 increased caspase-3 mRNA levels and caspase-3 transcriptional activity. Lastly, ChIP assay has established the capacity of FOXO1 binding directly on the caspase-3, sclerostin, and RANKL promoter region in AGE environment, providing the mechanism of the AGE-induced osteocyte apoptosis and dysfunction. Our results have shown that FOXO1 plays a crucial role in AGE-induced osteocyte dysfunction and apoptosis through its regulation of caspase-3, sclerostin, and RANKL. This study provides new insight into diabetes-enhanced risk of osteoporosis given the critical role of AGE in the pathogenesis of diabetes and the essential part of osteocyte in bone metabolism.
