Chiang CH, Lin YH, Kao YC, Weng SC, Chen CM, Liou YM. Mechanistic study of the Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member A1 in regulating mesenchymal stem cell fate decision toward adipogenesis and osteogenesis. Life Sci 2024; 336:122336. [PMID: 38092142 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2023.122336] [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: 05/05/2023] [Revised: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Akr1A1 is a glycolytic enzyme catalyzing the reduction of aldehyde to alcohol. This study aims to delineate the role of Akr1A1 in regulating the adipo-osteogenic lineage differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). MAIN METHODS MSCs derived from human bone marrow and Wharton Jelly together with gain- and loss-of-function analysis as well as supplementation with the S-Nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) inhibitor N6022 were used to study the function of Akr1A1 in controlling MSC lineage differentiation into osteoblasts and adipocytes. KEY FINDINGS Akr1A1 expression, PKM2 activity, and lactate production were found to be decreased in osteoblast-committed MSCs, but PGC-1α increased to induce mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Increased Akr1A1 inhibited the SIRT1-dependent pathway for decreasing the expressions of PGC-1α and TAZ but increasing PPAR γ in adipocyte-committed MSCs, hence promoting glycolysis in adipogenesis. In contrast, Akr1A1 expression, PKM2 activity and lactate production were all increased in adipocyte-differentiated cells with decreased PGC-1α for switching energy utilization to glycolytic metabolism. Reduced Akr1A1 expression in osteoblast-committed cells relieves its inhibition of SIRT1-mediated activation of PGC-1α and TAZ for facilitating osteogenesis and mitochondrial metabolism. SIGNIFICANCE Several metabolism-involved regulators including Akr1A1, SIRT1, PPARγ, PGC-1α and TAZ were differentially expressed in osteoblast- and adipocyte-committed MSCs. More importantly, Akr1A1 was identified as a new key regulator for controlling the MSC lineage commitment in favor of adipogenesis but detrimental to osteogenesis. Such information should be useful to develop perspective new therapeutic agents to reverse the adipo-osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, in a way to increase in osteogenesis but decrease in adipogenesis.

Abstract
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most frequent leukemia in Western countries. Although characterized by the progressive expansion and accumulation of leukemic B cells in peripheral blood, CLL cells develop in protective niches mainly located within lymph nodes and bone marrow. Multiple interactions between CLL and microenvironmental cells may favor the expansion of a B cell clone, further driving immune cells toward an immunosuppressive phenotype. Here, we summarize the current understanding of bone tissue alterations in CLL patients, further addressing and suggesting how the multiple interactions between CLL cells and osteoblasts/osteoclasts can be involved in these processes. Recent findings proposing the disruption of the endosteal niche by the expansion of a leukemic B cell clone appear to be a novel field of research to be deeply investigated and potentially relevant to provide new therapeutic approaches.

Understanding the Consequences of Fatty Bone and Fatty Muscle: How the Osteosarcopenic Adiposity Phenotype Uncovers the Deterioration of Body Composition. Metabolites 2023; 13:1056. [PMID: 37887382 PMCID: PMC10608812 DOI: 10.3390/metabo13101056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Adiposity is central to aging and several chronic diseases. Adiposity encompasses not just the excess adipose tissue but also body fat redistribution, fat infiltration, hypertrophy of adipocytes, and the shifting of mesenchymal stem cell commitment to adipogenesis. Bone marrow adipose tissue expansion, inflammatory adipokines, and adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles are central to the development of osteopenic adiposity. Adipose tissue infiltration and local adipogenesis within the muscle are critical in developing sarcopenic adiposity and subsequent poorer functional outcomes. Ultimately, osteosarcopenic adiposity syndrome is the result of all the processes noted above: fat infiltration and adipocyte expansion and redistribution within the bone, muscle, and adipose tissues, resulting in bone loss, muscle mass/strength loss, deteriorated adipose tissue, and subsequent functional decline. Increased fat tissue, typically referred to as obesity and expressed by body mass index (the latter often used inadequately), is now occurring in younger age groups, suggesting people will live longer with the negative effects of adiposity. This review discusses the role of adiposity in the deterioration of bone and muscle, as well as adipose tissue itself. It reveals how considering and including adiposity in the definition and diagnosis of osteopenic adiposity, sarcopenic adiposity, and osteosarcopenic adiposity will help in better understanding the pathophysiology of each and accelerate possible therapies and prevention approaches for both relatively healthy individuals or those with chronic disease.

Abstract
Age-related and chemotherapy-induced bone loss depends on cellular senescence and the cell secretory phenotype. However, the factors secreted in the senescent microenvironment that contribute to bone loss remain elusive. Here, we report a central role for the inflammatory alternative complement system in skeletal bone loss. Through transcriptomic analysis of bone samples, we identified complement factor D, a rate-limiting factor of the alternative pathway of complement, which is among the most responsive factors to chemotherapy or estrogen deficiency. We show that osteoblasts and osteocytes are major inducers of complement activation, while monocytes and osteoclasts are their primary targets. Genetic deletion of C5ar1, the receptor of the anaphylatoxin C5a, or treatment with a C5AR1 inhibitor reduced monocyte chemotaxis and osteoclast differentiation. Moreover, genetic deficiency or inhibition of C5AR1 partially prevented bone loss and osteoclastogenesis upon chemotherapy or ovariectomy. Altogether, these lines of evidence support the idea that inhibition of alternative complement pathways may have some therapeutic benefit in osteopenic disorders.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) in the skeleton likely plays a variety of physiological and pathophysiological roles that are not yet fully understood. In elucidating the complex relationship between bone and BMAT, glucocorticoids (GCs) are positioned to play a key role, as they have been implicated in the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) between osteogenic and adipogenic lineages. The purpose of this review is to illuminate aspects of both endogenous and exogenous GC signaling, including the influence of GC receptors, in mechanisms of bone aging including relationships to BMAT. RECENT FINDINGS Harmful effects of GCs on bone mass involve several cellular pathways and events that can include BMSC differentiation bias toward adipogenesis and the influence of mature BMAT on bone remodeling through crosstalk. Interestingly, BMAT involvement remains poorly explored in GC-induced osteoporosis and warrants further investigation. This review provides an update on the current understanding of the role of glucocorticoids in the biology of osteoblasts and bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds).

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1044039.

Abstract
Context Circulating adipokines and ghrelin affect bone remodeling by regulating the activation and differentiation of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Although the correlation between adipokines, ghrelin, and bone mineral density (BMD) has been studied over the decades, its correlations are still controversial. Accordingly, an updated meta-analysis with new findings is needed. Objective This study aimed to explore the impact of serum adipokine and ghrelin levels on BMD and osteoporotic fractures through a meta-analysis. Data sources Studies published till October 2020 in Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were reviewed. Study selection We included studies that measured at least one serum adipokine level and BMD or fracture risk in healthy individuals. We excluded studies with one or more of the following: patients less than 18 years old, patients with comorbidities, who had undergone metabolic treatment, obese patients, patients with high physical activities, and a study that did not distinguish sex or menopausal status. Data extraction We extracted the data that include the correlation coefficient between adipokines (leptin, adiponectin, and resistin) and ghrelin and BMD, fracture risk by osteoporotic status from eligible studies. Data synthesis A meta-analysis of the pooled correlations between adipokines and BMD was performed, demonstrating that the correlation between leptin and BMD was prominent in postmenopausal women. In most cases, adiponectin levels were inversely correlated with BMD. A meta-analysis was conducted by pooling the mean differences in adipokine levels according to the osteoporotic status. In postmenopausal women, significantly lower leptin (SMD = -0.88) and higher adiponectin (SMD = 0.94) levels were seen in the osteoporosis group than in the control group. By predicting fracture risk, higher leptin levels were associated with lower fracture risk (HR = 0.68), whereas higher adiponectin levels were associated with an increased fracture risk in men (HR = 1.94) and incident vertebral fracture in postmenopausal women (HR = 1.18). Conclusions Serum adipokines levels can utilize to predict osteoporotic status and fracture risk of patients.

Abstract
The article presents data of the influence of cytokines of different directions of glucose and lipid metabolism in obesity. A change of the basic paradigm regarding adipose tissue has contributed to a number of recent discoveries. This concerns such basic concepts as healthy and diseased adipocytes, and, as a consequence, changes of their metabolism under the influence of cytokins. Distinguishing the concept of organokines demonstrates that despite the common features of cytokine regulation, each organ has its own specifics features of cytokine regulation, each organ has its own specific an important section of this concept is the idea of the heterogeneity of adipose tissue. Knowledge of the function of adipose tissue localized in different compartments of the body is expanding. There are date about the possibility of transition of one type of adipose tissue to another. A possible mechanism linking adipose tissue inflammation and the formation of insulin resistance (IR) is presented in this paper. The mechanism of IR development is closely connected with to proinflammatory cytokins disordering the insulin signal, accompanied by a decrease of the work of glucose transporters. A decrease of the income of glucose into cells leads to a change of glycolysis level to an increase of the fatty acids oxidation. Cytokins are able to participate in the process of the collaboration of some cells with others, that occurs both during physiological and pathological process.

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are general progenitor cells of osteoblasts and adipocytes and they are characterized as a fundamental mediator for bone formation. The current research studied the molecular mechanisms underlying circRNA-regulated BMSC osteogenic differentiation. METHODS Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was employed to study abnormal circRNA and mRNA expression in BMSCs before and after osteogenic differentiation induction. Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporting analysis were employed to confirm correlations among miRNA, circRNA, and mRNA. RT-qPCR, ALP staining, and alizarin red staining illustrated the osteogenic differentiation ability of BMSCs. RESULTS Data showed that circ-Iqsec1 expression increased during BMSC osteogenic differentiation. circ-Iqsec1 downregulation reduced BMSC osteogenic differentiation ability. The present investigation discovered that Satb2 played a role during BMSC osteogenic differentiation. Satb2 downregulation decreased BMSC osteogenic differentiation ability. Bioinformatics and luciferase data showed that miR-187-3p linked circ-Iqsec1 and Satb2. miR-187-3p downregulation or Satb2 overexpression restored the osteogenic differentiation capability of BMSCs post silencing circ-Iqsec1 in in vivo and in vitro experiments. Satb2 upregulation restored osteogenic differentiation capability of BMSCs post miR-187-3p overexpression. CONCLUSION Taken together, our study found that circ-Iqsec1 induced BMSC osteogenic differentiation through the miR-187-3p/Satb2 signaling pathway.
