Abstract
Cytokines are the main regulators of innate and adaptive immunity, mediating communications between the cells of the immune system and regulating biological functions, including cell motility, differentiation, growth and apoptosis. Cytokines and cytokine receptors have been used in the treatment of tumors and autoimmune diseases, and to intervene in cytokine storms. Indeed, the use of monoclonal antibodies to block cytokine‑receptor interactions, as well as antibody‑cytokine fusion proteins has exhibited immense potential for the treatment of tumors and autoimmune diseases. Compared with these traditional types of antibodies, nanobodies not only maintain a high affinity and specificity, but also have the advantages of high thermal stability, a high capacity for chemical manipulation, low immunogenicity, good tissue permeability, rapid clearance and economic production. Thus, nanobodies have extensive potential for use in the diagnosis and treatment of cytokine‑related diseases. The present review summarizes the application of nanobodies in cytokine‑mediated immunotherapy and immunoimaging.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Studies have shown that interleukin 6 (IL-6) can regulate stem cell osteogenic differentiation; however, the exact mechanism is not clear. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are closed circular non-coding RNAs that are involved in the process of stem cell osteogenic differentiation. Therefore, the purpose of this present study was to investigate the effect of IL-6 treatment on osteogenic differentiation of human apical tooth papillae stem cells (hSCAPs), and to detect the difference in circRNA expression using gene microarray technology. METHODS After extraction and identification of hSCAPs, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, alizarin red staining, and calcium ion quantitative assay were used to determine the changes of ALP enzyme, mineralized nodules, and matrix calcium levels before and after IL-6 treatment of hSCAPs gene microarray technology was used to analyze the changes in circRNA expression levels before and after IL-6 induction of mineralization. The four selected circRNAs were validated by qRT-PCR. Moreover, gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) were used to predict the potential functions and biological signaling pathways of circRNAs. Finally, these data are integrated and analyzed to construct circRNA-microRNA-mRNA networks. RESULTS Alp and Alizarin red staining confirmed that IL-6 promoted the osteogenic differentiation of hSCAPs. The gene microarray results identified 132 differentially expressed circRNAs, of which 117 were upregulated and 15 were downregulated. Bioinformatic analysis predicted that the circRNA-406620/miR-103a-3p/FAT atypical cadherin 4 (FAT4) pathway might be involved in regulating IL-6 to promote osteogenic differentiation of hSCAPs. CONCLUSION Differentially expressed circRNAs might be closely involved in regulating IL-6 to promote osteogenic differentiation of hSCAPs.

Nutrients 2023; 15:2115.

Abstract
The mode and mechanism of diabetic periodontitis-induced alveolar-osteocyte death are still unclear. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of ferroptosis in alveolar osteocytes during diabetic periodontitis and the therapeutic potential of resveratrol to alleviate osteocyte ferroptosis. Diabetic periodontitis was induced in C57/BL6-male mice and treated with or without resveratrol. Periodontitis pathogenicity was analyzed by micro-CT and histology, and alveolar-osteocyte ferroptosis was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. MLOY4 osteocytes were treated with P. gingivalis-derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS)+advanced glycosylated end products (AGEs) mimicking diabetic periodontitis condition in vitro, with or without resveratrol or ferrostatin-1 (ferroptosis inhibitor). Osteocyte ferroptosis and expression of inflammatory mediators were analyzed. Diabetic periodontitis aggravated periodontitis pathogenicity and inhibited the expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11 in alveolar osteocytes and resveratrol alleviated these effects. LPS+AGEs triggered osteocyte ferroptosis in vitro as indicated by the downregulated GPX4 and SLC7A11, upregulated malondialdehyde, disrupted mitochondrial morphology, and overexpressed pro-inflammatory mediators IL-1β, TNF-α, SOST, RANKL, and IL-6, and ferrostatin-1 or resveratrol treatment reversed these effects. LPS+AGEs upregulated pIKBα and pNF-κB p65 expression in osteocytes, and resveratrol or ferrostatin-1 reversed this effect. In conclusion, diabetic periodontitis triggers alveolar osteocyte ferroptosis possibly via disruption of the SLC7A11/GPX4 axis, and resveratrol has therapeutic potential to correct this biological event.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic joint inflammation and bone erosion. The bones in the human body are constantly undergoing bone remodeling throughout their lives, which is the process of bone resorption by osteoclasts to damaged bone tissue and new bone formation by osteoblasts. Osteoblasts (OBs) are the main functional cells in bone formation, responsible for the synthesis, secretion and mineralization of the bone matrix. On the contrary, osteoclasts (OCs) mediate bone breakdown during natural bone turnover, but excessive breakdown occurs in RA. Under the condition of RA inflammation, many molecules, such as IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-17 and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) are produced that could mediate bone loss. Studies have shown that cytokines mainly promote the formation of OCs and play a role in bone resorption by stimulating OBs to express receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL). JAK/STAT plays a crucial role in the process of bone destruction. And JAK/STAT pathway mediates the RANKL/receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) axis. Tofacitinib, Baricitinib, Peficitinib and Filgotinib are now being used in patients with moderate to severe RA, as well as in patients with RA who have an inadequate response to methotrexate therapy and bone destruction. Currently, Tofacitiniband Baritinib areapprovedfor thetreatmentof moderate-to-severely active RA. JAK inhibitors have been reported to have better efficacy and lower adverse effects compared with methotrexate and adalimumab. In addition, two JAK inhibitors are currently in development: the JAK1 selective Upadacitinib, and the JAK3 selective inhibitor Decernotinib. In addition to the above JAK inhibitors, some small molecular compounds inhibit bone destruction by inhibiting the Phosphorylation of STAT3. In this paper, the research progress of bone destruction participated by JAK/ STAT in rheumatoid arthritis and therapeutic effect of JAK/STAT inhibitors were reviewed.
