Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal morbidity in patients with cancer has a major impact on the quality of life, and preserving bone health while improving outcomes is an important goal of modern antitumor treatment strategies. Despite their widespread use in early disease stages, the effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) on the skeleton are still poorly defined. Here, we initiated a comprehensive investigation of the impact of ICIs on bone health by longitudinal assessment of bone turnover markers in patients with cancer and by validation in a novel bioengineered 3D model of bone remodeling. METHODS An exploratory longitudinal study was conducted to assess serum markers of bone resorption (C-terminal telopeptide, CTX) and formation (procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide, PINP, and osteocalcin, OCN) before each ICI application (programmed cell death 1 (PD1) inhibitor or programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor) for 6 months or until disease progression in patients with advanced cancer and no evidence of bone metastases. To validate the in vivo results, we evaluated osteoclast (OC) and osteoblast (OB) differentiation on treatment with ICIs. In addition, their effect on bone remodeling was assessed by immunohistochemistry, confocal microscopy, and proteomics analysis in a dynamic 3D bone model. RESULTS During the first month of treatment, CTX levels decreased sharply but transiently. In contrast, we observed a delayed increase of serum levels of PINP and OCN after 4 months of therapy. In vitro, ICIs impaired the maturation of preosteoclasts by inhibiting STAT3/NFATc1 signaling but not JNK, ERK, and AKT while lacking any direct effect on osteogenesis. However, using our bioengineered 3D bone model, which enables the simultaneous differentiation of OB and OC precursor cells, we confirmed the uncoupling of the OC/OB activity on exposure to ICIs by demonstrating impaired OC maturation along with increased OB differentiation. CONCLUSION Our study indicates that the inhibition of the PD1/PD-L1 signaling axis interferes with bone turnover and may exert a protective effect on bone by indirectly promoting osteogenesis.

A simple method to isolate structurally and chemically intact brain vascular basement membrane for neural regeneration following traumatic brain injury. Biomater Res 2023; 27:2. [PMID: 36635718 PMCID: PMC9837976 DOI: 10.1186/s40824-023-00341-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The brain vascular basement membrane (brain-VBM) is an important component of the brain extracellular matrix, and the three-dimensional structure of the cerebrovascular network nested with many cell-adhesive proteins may provide guidance for brain tissue regeneration. However, the potential of ability of brain-VBM to promote neural tissue regeneration has not been examined due to the technical difficulty of isolating intact brain-VBM. METHODS The present study developed a simple, effective method to isolate structurally and compositionally intact brain-VBM. Structural and component properties of the brain-VBM were characterized to confirm the technique. Seed cells were cocultured with brain-VBM in vitro to analyze biocompatibility and neurite extension. An experimental rat model of focal traumatic brain injury (TBI) induced by controlled cortical impact were conducted to further test the tissue regeneration ability of brain-VBM. RESULTS Brain-VBM isolated using genipin showed significantly improved mechanical properties, was easy to handle, supported high cell viability, exhibited strong cell adhesive properties, and promoted neurite extension and outgrowth. Further testing of the isolated brain-VBM transplanted at lesion sites in an experimental rat model of focal TBI demonstrated considerable promise for reconstructing a complete blood vessel network that filled in the lesion cavity and promoting repopulation of neural progenitor cells and neurons. CONCLUSION The technique allows isolation of intact brain-VBM as a 3D microvascular scaffold to support brain tissue regeneration following TBI and shows considerable promise for the production of naturally-derived biomaterials for neural tissue engineering.

Modulation of osteoclastogenesis through adrenomedullin receptors on osteoclast precursors: initiation of differentiation by asymmetric cell division. J Transl Med 2021; 101:1449-1457. [PMID: 34611305 DOI: 10.1038/s41374-021-00633-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2021] [Revised: 05/26/2021] [Accepted: 06/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
Adrenomedullin (ADM), a member of the calcitonin family of peptides, is a potent vasodilator and was shown to have the ability to modulate bone metabolism. We have previously found a unique cell surface antigen (Kat1 antigen) expressed in rat osteoclasts, which is involved in the functional regulation of the calcitonin receptor (CTR). Cross-linking of cell surface Kat1 antigen with anti-Kat1 antigen monoclonal antibody (mAbKat1) stimulated osteoclast formation only under conditions suppressed by calcitonin. Here, we found that ADM provoked a significant stimulation in osteoclastogenesis only in the presence of calcitonin; a similar biological effect was seen with mAbKat1 in the bone marrow culture system. This stimulatory effect on osteoclastogenesis mediated by ADM was abolished by the addition of mAbKat1. 125I-labeled rat ADM (125I-ADM)-binding experiments involving micro-autoradiographic studies demonstrated that mononuclear precursors of osteoclasts abundantly expressed ADM receptors, and the specific binding of 125I-ADM was markedly inhibited by the addition of mAbKat1, suggesting a close relationship between the Kat1 antigen and the functional ADM receptors expressed on cells in the osteoclast lineage. ADM receptors were also detected in the osteoclast progenitor cells in the late mitotic phase, in which only one daughter cell of the dividing cell express ADM receptors, suggesting the semiconservative cell division of the osteoclast progenitors in the initiation of osteoclastogenesis. Messenger RNAs for the receptor activity-modifying-protein 1 (RAMP1) and calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR) were expressed in cells in the osteoclast lineage; however, the expression of RAMP2 or RAMP3 was not detected in these cells. It is suggested that the Kat1 antigen is involved in the functional ADM receptor distinct from the general ADM receptor, consisting of CRLR and RAMP2 or RAMP3. Modulation of osteoclastogenesis through functional ADM receptors abundantly expressed on mononuclear osteoclast precursors is supposed to be important in the fine regulation of osteoclast differentiation in a specific osteotrophic hormonal condition with a high level of calcitonin in blood.

Abstract
Laminin-332 (Lm-332), a major basement membrane protein, has been shown to provide a niche for some stem cells. Here, we found that Lm-332 was expressed in osteoblasts, and is implicated in the regulation of osteoclast differentiation. Immunofluorescence analysis of laminin-β3, a unique component of Lm-332, indicated specific expression of laminin-β3 in osteoblast-like cells localized on bone surface. RT-PCR analysis confirmed that α3, β3, and γ2 chains of Lm-332 were all expressed in primary osteoblasts prepared from mouse calvaria. Lm-332 markedly inhibited osteoclastogenesis induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL) when bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) were cultured on Lm-332-coated plates. Lm-332 also blocked RANKL-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) (ERK, JNK, and p38) and expression of NFATc1, c-Fos, and c-Jun. Lm-332 suppressed osteoclast differentiation while retaining macrophage phenotypes, including nonspecific esterase activity and gene expression of lysozyme and EGF-like module-containing mucin-like hormone receptor-like 1 (Emr1). Furthermore, the treatment of primary osteoblasts with osteoclastogenic factors dramatically suppressed expression of Lm-332. These findings suggest that Lm-332 produced by osteoblasts in bone tissues has a pivotal role in controlling normal bone remodeling through suppressing osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
Osteoclasts or their precursors interact with the glycoprotein-enriched matrix of bone during extravasation from the vasculature, and upon attachment prior to resorption. Reverse transcriptase-PCR studies showed that two new alternatively spliced forms of chicken galectin-3, termed Gal-3TM1 and Gal-3TR1, were enriched and preferentially expressed in highly purified chicken osteoclast-like cells. Gal-3TM1 and Gal-3TR1 mRNA were also detected in chicken intestinal tissue, but not in kidney, liver, or lung. Gal-3TM1 and Gal-3TR1 messages both contain an open reading frame encoding a predicted 70-amino acid TM1 sequence inserted between the N-terminal Gly/Pro repeat domain and the carbohydrate recognition domain (exons 3 and 4). Gal-3TR1 mRNA contains an additional 241-bp sequence, which encodes a truncated open reading frame between the 4th and 5th exons, and, whose translation is expected to terminate within the carbohydrate recognition domain encompassing exons 4, 5, and 6. Immunoblotting and affinity chromatography showed that purified osteoclast preparations and intestinal homogenates contained a 36-kDa lactose-binding galectin. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometric analyses on chymotryptic peptides from the 36-kDa lectin confirmed its identity as Gal-3TM1. The TM1 insert contains a single transmembrane-spanning region and a leucine zipper-like stalk domain that is predicted to position the intact carbohydrate recognition domain of Gal-3TM1 on the exterior surface of the plasma membrane. Immunofluorescent staining of chicken osteoclasts confirmed the expression of Gal-3TM1 at the plasma membrane. Gal-3TM1 is the first example of a galectin superfamily member capable of being expressed as a soluble protein and as a transmembrane protein.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The detailed mechanism of osseointegration, the most appropriate implant-bone interface, remains unclear in jaw tissues at the ultrastructural level in contrast to the many reports using long bones. The present study reports on tissue response to titanium-implantation on an animal model using rat maxilla. METHODS Animals were sacrificed at 1 to 28 days post-implantation and prepared tissue specimens, freed from implants by a cryofracture technique, were processed for transmission electron microscopy and histochemistry for tartrate resistant acid phosphatase activity (TRAPase). RESULTS Different patterns in bone formation were recognized between lateral and base areas of implant cavities. In the lateral area with narrow gaps, bone deposition took place from the pre-existing bone towards the implant after active bone resorption by osteoclasts reactive to TRAPase. However, no distinct bone formation appeared in the lateral area where the implant had been installed close to the osteotomy margin. On the other hand, new bone formation was found at the base area without any apparent bone resorption. Interestingly, mononuclear cells reactive to TRAPase, presumably preosteoclasts, frequently occurred near preosteoblasts. Osseointegration around the implants was obtained in this model by 28 days post-implantation except for the lateral area with complete contact with implants, where the thin layer remained in contact with the implant surface. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that ossification proceeds at different modes around the titanium implant in rat maxilla, depending on the nature of the recipient bones and the dimension of the gap between the implant and osteotomy margin.
