Abstract
Osteoporosis is characterized by a decline in bone mineral density (BMD) and increased fracture risk. Free radicals and antioxidant systems play a central role in bone remodeling. This study was conducted to illustrate the role of oxidative-stress-related genes in BMD and osteoporosis. A systematic review was performed following the PRISMA guidelines. The search was computed in PubMed, Web of Sciences, Scopus, EBSCO, and BVS from inception to November 1st, 2022. The risk of bias was evaluated using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist tool. A total of 427 potentially eligible articles exploring this search question were detected. After removing duplicates (n = 112) and excluding irrelevant manuscripts based on screenings of their titles and abstracts (n = 317), 19 articles were selected for full-text review. Finally, 14 original articles were included in this systematic review after we applied the exclusion and inclusion criteria. Data analyzed in this systematic review indicated that oxidative-stress-related genetic polymorphisms are associated with BMD at different skeletal sites in diverse populations, influencing the risk of osteoporosis or osteoporotic fracture. However, it is necessary to look deep into their association with bone metabolism to determine if the findings can be translated into the clinical management of osteoporosis and its progression.

Abstract
Human platelet 12-lipoxygenase (h12-LOX) is responsible for the formation of oxylipin products that play an important role in platelet aggregation. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of h12-LOX have been implicated in several diseases. In this study, we investigate the structural, dynamical, and functional impact of a h12-LOX SNP that generates a tyrosine-to-cysteine mutation at a buried site (Y649C h12-LOX) and was previously ascribed with reduced levels of 12(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12S-HETE) production in isolated platelets. Herein, in vitro Michaelis-Menten kinetics show reduced catalytic rates for Y649C compared to WT h12-LOX at physiological or lower temperatures. Both proteins exhibited similar melting temperatures, metal content, and oligomerization state. Liposome binding for both proteins was also dependent upon the presence of calcium, temperature, and liposome composition; however, the Y649C variant was found to have lowered binding capacity to liposomes compared to WT at physiological temperatures. Further, hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) experiments revealed a regional defined enhancement in the peptide mobility caused by the mutation. This increased instability for the mutation stemmed from a change in an interaction with an arched helix that lines the substrate binding site, located ≥15 Å from the mutation site. Finally, differential scanning calorimetry demonstrated a reduced protein (un)folding enthalpy, consistent with the HDX results. Taken together, these results demonstrate remarkable similarity between the mutant and WT h12-LOX, and yet, subtle changes in activity, membrane affinity and protein stability may be responsible for the significant physiological changes that the Y649C SNP manifests in platelet biology.

Abstract
Lipid metabolism in macrophages has been increasingly emphasized in exerting an anti-inflammatory effect and accelerating fracture healing. 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX) is expressed in several cell types, including macrophages, and oxidizes polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) to generate both pro- and anti-inflammatory lipid mediators, of which the n-3 PUFAs play an important part in tissue homeostasis/fibrosis. Although mechanical factor regulates the lipid metabolic axis of inflammatory cells, specifically matrix stiffness influences macrophages metabolic responses, little is known about how matrix stiffness affects the 12-LOX-mediated early inflammation in bone repair. In the present study, demineralized bone matrix (DBM) scaffolds with different matrix stiffness were constructed by controlling the duration of decalcification (0 h (control), 1 h (high), 12 h (medium), and 5 d (low)) to repair the defected rat skull. The expression of inflammatory cytokines and macrophages polarization were analyzed. The lipid metabolites and lipid mediators' biosynthesis by matrix stiffness-regulated were further detected. The results showed that the low matrix stiffness could polarize macrophages into an anti-inflammatory phenotype, promote the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines and specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs) biosynthesis beneficial for the osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). After treated with ML355, the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines/proteins and SPMs biosynthesis in macrophages cultured on low-matrix stiffness scaffolds were repressed, and there were almost no statistical differences among all groups. Findings from this study support that matrix stiffness regulates bone repair by modulating 12-LOX-mediated early inflammation, which suggest a direct mechanical impact of matrix stiffness on macrophages lipid metabolism and provide a new insight into the clinical application of SPMs for bone regeneration.

Abstract
PURPOSE ALOX12 and ALOX15 encode arachidonate lipoxygenases which produce lipid metabolites involved in inflammatory processes. Metabolites generated by ALOX12 and ALOX15 can activate the expression of the potent pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6, and produce endogenous ligands for PPARG. In this study, polymorphisms in ALOX12, ALOX15, IL6 and PPARG were investigated for association with bone properties in young and elderly Swedish women. METHODS Three SNPs in ALOX12, five in ALOX15, one each in IL6 and PPARG were genotyped in the cohorts PEAK-25 (n=1061 women; all 25y) and OPRA (n=1044 women; all 75y). Bone mineral density (BMD) and quantitative ultrasound (QUS) were analyzed in both cohorts; trabecular bone score (TBS) in PEAK-25; bone loss, fracture incidence and serum C-reactive protein (CRP) were assessed in OPRA. RESULTS In the elderly women ALOX15 (rs2619112) was associated with CRP levels (p=0.004) and incident fracture of any type (p=0.014), although not with BMD or ultrasound. In young women, carrying the common T allele (ALOX 15 rs748694) was associated with lower QUS values (p=0.002-0.006). The IL6 SNP was associated with lower BMD in PEAK-25 (femoral neck p=0.034; hip p=0.012). TBS was not associated with variation in any gene. Variants in the ALOX12 and PPARγ were not associated with BMD in either cohort. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that variation in inflammation related genes ALOX15 and IL6 was associated with bone microarchitecture and density in young adult women, but appears to be less important in the elderly, despite an observed association with CRP as a marker of inflammation and incident fracture.

Abstract
Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are dioxygenases that catalyze the formation of corresponding hydroperoxides from polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid and arachidonic acid. LOX enzymes are expressed in immune, epithelial, and tumor cells that display a variety of physiological functions, including inflammation, skin disorder, and tumorigenesis. In the humans and mice, six LOX isoforms have been known. 15-LOX, a prototypical enzyme originally found in reticulocytes shares the similarity of amino acid sequence as well as the biochemical property to plant LOX enzymes. 15-LOX-2, which is expressed in epithelial cells and leukocytes, has different substrate specificity in the humans and mice, therefore, the role of them in mammals has not been established. 12-LOX is an isoform expressed in epithelial cells and myeloid cells including platelets. Many mutations in this isoform are found in epithelial cancers, suggesting a potential link between 12-LOX and tumorigenesis. 12R-LOX can be found in the epithelial cells of the skin. Defects in this gene result in ichthyosis, a cutaneous disorder characterized by pathophysiologically dried skin due to abnormal loss of water from its epithelial cell layer. Similarly, eLOX-3, which is also expressed in the skin epithelial cells acting downstream 12R-LOX, is another causative factor for ichthyosis. 5-LOX is a distinct isoform playing an important role in asthma and inflammation. This isoform causes the constriction of bronchioles in response to cysteinyl leukotrienes such as LTC4, thus leading to asthma. It also induces neutrophilic inflammation by its recruitment in response to LTB4. Importantly, 5-LOX activity is strictly regulated by 5-LOX activating protein (FLAP) though the distribution of 5-LOX in the nucleus. Currently, pharmacological drugs targeting FLAP are actively developing. This review summarized these functions of LOX enzymes under pathophysiological conditions in mammals.

Abstract
Leukotrienes are pro-inflammatory lipid mediators, which are biosynthesized via the lipoxygenase pathway of the arachidonic acid cascade. Lipoxygenases form a family of lipid peroxidizing enzymes and human lipoxygenase isoforms have been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory, hyperproliferative (cancer) and neurodegenerative diseases. Lipoxygenases are not restricted to humans but also occur in a large number of pro- and eucaryotic organisms. Lipoxygenase-like sequences have been identified in the three domains of life (bacteria, archaea, eucarya) but because of lacking functional data the occurrence of catalytically active lipoxygenases in archaea still remains an open question. Although the physiological and/or pathophysiological functions of various lipoxygenase isoforms have been studied throughout the last three decades there is no unifying concept for the biological importance of these enzymes. In this review we are summarizing the current knowledge on the distribution of lipoxygenases in living single and multicellular organisms with particular emphasis to higher vertebrates and will also focus on the genetic diversity of enzymes and receptors involved in human leukotriene signaling.

Abstract
This study intended to compare bone density and architecture in three groups of women: young women with anorexia nervosa (AN), an age-matched control group of young women, and healthy late postmenopausal women. Three-dimensional peripheral quantitative high resolution computed-tomography (HR-pQCT) at the ultradistal radius, a technology providing measures of cortical and trabecular bone density and microarchitecture, was performed in the three cohorts. Thirty-six women with AN aged 18-30 years (mean duration of AN: 5.8 years), 83 healthy late postmenopausal women aged 70-81 as well as 30 age-matched healthy young women were assessed. The overall cortical and trabecular bone density (D100), the absolute thickness of the cortical bone (CTh), and the absolute number of trabecules per area (TbN) were significantly lower in AN patients compared with healthy young women. The absolute number of trabecules per area (TbN) in AN and postmenopausal women was similar, but significantly lower than in healthy young women. The comparison between AN patients and post-menopausal women is of interest because the latter reach bone peak mass around the middle of the fertile age span whereas the former usually lose bone before reaching optimal bone density and structure. This study shows that bone mineral density and bone compacta thickness in AN are lower than those in controls but still higher than those in postmenopause. Bone compacta density in AN is similar as in controls. However, bone inner structure in AN is degraded to a similar extent as in postmenopause. This last finding is particularly troubling.

Abstract
Mammalian lipoxygenases play a role in normal cell development and differentiation but they have also been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular, hyperproliferative and neurodegenerative diseases. As lipid peroxidizing enzymes they are involved in the regulation of cellular redox homeostasis since they produce lipid hydroperoxides, which serve as an efficient source for free radicals. There are various epidemiological correlation studies relating naturally occurring variations in the six human lipoxygenase genes (SNPs or rare mutations) to the frequency for various diseases in these individuals, but for most of the described variations no functional data are available. Employing a combined bioinformatical and enzymological strategy, which included structural modeling and experimental site-directed mutagenesis, we systematically explored the structural and functional consequences of non-synonymous genetic variations in four different human lipoxygenase genes (ALOX5, ALOX12, ALOX15, and ALOX15B) that have been identified in the human 1000 genome project. Due to a lack of a functional expression system we resigned to analyze the functionality of genetic variations in the hALOX12B and hALOXE3 gene. We found that most of the frequent non-synonymous coding SNPs are located at the enzyme surface and hardly alter the enzyme functionality. In contrast, genetic variations which affect functional important amino acid residues or lead to truncated enzyme variations (nonsense mutations) are usually rare with a global allele frequency<0.1%. This data suggest that there appears to be an evolutionary pressure on the coding regions of the lipoxygenase genes preventing the accumulation of loss-of-function variations in the human population. Non-synonymous coding variations in human lipoxygenases are mostly rare with a global allele frequency <1%. Common ALOX SNPs are mainly localized on the enzyme surface and hardly effect the enzyme functionality. hALOX15B Ala416Asp is a newly discovered loss-of-function mutation in the hALOX gene family while inactivity seems to be caused by severe structural alterations. Our data indicate that there is evolutionary pressure on these redox enzymes preventing the accumulation of loss-of-function variations in the human population. 1000 Genome database is a useful tool to analyze the distribution and functionality of variations in genes of interest.

Abstract
Repairing large bone defects is a major orthopaedic problem, with current treatments being constrained by the regenerative capacity of human tissue. Current methods for repairing bone defects include osteogenesis, osteoconduction, osteoinduction, and tissue engineering; however, the cumulative effect of these methods is, as of yet, rather unsatisfactory. Recent research has demonstrated that knockout of the cell cycle inhibitor p21, which works as a switch to control regenerative capacity, can promote cell proliferation and appendage regeneration. The enzyme 15-lipoxygenase type 1 (15-LOX-1), which is involved in arachidonic and linoleic acid metabolism, has the potential to down-regulate the expression of p21. Therefore, we hypothesise that the construction of a new bone substitute that expresses 15-LOX-1 locally will promote osteoblast proliferation through inhibition of p21, resulting in an effective and inducible method for promoting bone regeneration.

Abstract
SUMMARY Association between ten single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human ALOX12 and ALOX15 genes and variations in peak bone mineral density (BMD) in a large sample of Chinese nuclear families with female offspring using the quantitative transmission disequilibrium test (QTDT). Our results suggest that the genetic polymorphisms in both human ALOX12 and ALOX15 may contribute to variations in the peak BMD of Chinese women. INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to investigate whether polymorphisms in the human ALOX12 and ALOX15 genes are associated with variations in peak BMD in Chinese nuclear families with female offspring. METHODS Each five SNPs in the ALOX12 and ALOX15 genes were genotyped in a total of 1,260 individuals from 401 Chinese nuclear families. The BMD of the lumbar spine, femoral neck and total hip was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. We tested whether a single SNP or a haplotype was associated with peak BMD variations using the QTDT. RESULTS Using QTDT to measure within-family associations in ALOX15, we observed a significant association between rs916055 and BMD in the lumbar spine (p = 0.027 in the permutation 1,000 test). However, in ALOX12, rs312470 was significantly associated with BMD in the femoral neck (p = 0.029 and p = 0.036 in the permutation 1,000 test). The results of a haplotype analysis supported the findings of the single locus test for ALOX15. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that the genetic polymorphisms in both human ALOX12 and ALOX15 may contribute to variations in the peak BMD of Chinese women.

Abstract
CONTEXT A strong genetic influence on bone mineral density has been long established, and modern genotyping technologies have generated a flurry of new discoveries about the genetic determinants of bone mineral density (BMD) measured at a single time point. However, much less is known about the genetics of age-related bone loss. Identifying bone loss-related genes may provide new routes for therapeutic intervention and osteoporosis prevention. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION A review of published peer-reviewed literature on the genetics of bone loss was performed. Relevant studies were summarized, most of which were drawn from the period 1990-2010. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Although bone loss is a challenging phenotype, available evidence supports a substantial genetic contribution. Some of the genes identified from recent genome-wide association studies of cross-sectional BMD are attractive candidate genes for bone loss, most notably genes in the nuclear factor κB and estrogen endocrine pathways. New insights into the biology of skeletal development and regulation of bone turnover have inspired new hypotheses about genetic regulation of bone loss and may provide new directions for identifying genes associated with bone loss. CONCLUSIONS Although recent genome-wide association and candidate gene studies have begun to identify genes that influence BMD, efforts to identify susceptibility genes specific for bone loss have proceeded more slowly. Nevertheless, clues are beginning to emerge on where to look, and as population studies accumulate, there is hope that important bone loss susceptibility genes will soon be identified.
