[PMID: 37001628 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2023.116753] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 03/12/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION/AIM People with type 1 diabetes(T1D) and type 2 diabetes(T2D) have an increased risk of fractures due to skeletal fragility. We aimed to compare areal bone mineral density(aBMD), volumetric BMD(vBMD), cortical and trabecular measures, and bone strength parameters in participants with diabetes vs. controls. METHODS In a cross-sectional study, we included participants with T1D(n = 111), T2D(n = 106) and controls(n = 328). The study comprised of whole-body DXA and HR-pQCT scans, biochemistry, handgrip strength(HGS), Timed Up and GO(TUG), vibration perception threshold (VPT), questionnaires, medical histories, alcohol use, and previous fractures. Group comparisons were performed after adjustment for sex, age, BMI, diabetes duration, HbA1c, alcohol, smoking, previous fractures, postmenopausal, HGS, TUG, and VPT. RESULTS We found decreased aBMD in participants with T1D at the femoral neck(p = 0.028), whereas T2D had significantly higher aBMD at peripheral sites(legs, arms, p < 0.01) vs. controls. In T1D we found higher vBMD(p < 0.001), cortical vBMD (p < 0.001), cortical area(p = 0.002) and thickness(p < 0.001), lower cortical porosity(p = 0.008), higher stiffness(p = 0.002) and failure load(p = 0.003) at radius and higher vBMD(p = 0.003), cortical vBMD(p < 0.001), bone stiffness(p = 0.023) and failure load(p = 0.044) at the tibia than controls. In T2D we found higher vBMD(p < 0.001), cortical vBMD(p < 0.001), trabecular vBMD(p < 0.001), cortical area (p < 0.001) and thickness (p < 0.001), trabecular number (p = 0.024), lower separation(p = 0.010), higher stiffness (p < 0.001) and failure load (p < 0.001) at the radius and higher total vBMD(p < 0.001), cortical vBMD(p < 0.011), trabecular vBMD(p = 0.001), cortical area(p = 0.002) and thickness(p = 0.021), lower trabecular separation(p = 0.039), higher stiffness(p < 0.001) and failure load(p = 0.034) at tibia compared with controls. CONCLUSION aBMD measures were as expected but favorable bone microarchitecture and strength parameters were seen at the tibia and radius for T1D and T2D.

Abstract
Milk-derived bioactive proteins have increasingly gained attention and consideration throughout the world due to their high-quality amino acids and multiple health-promoting attributes. Apparently, being at the forefront of functional foods, these bioactive proteins are also suggested as potential alternatives for the management of various complex diseases. In this review, we will focus on lactoferrin (LF) and osteopontin (OPN), two multifunctional dairy proteins, as well as to their naturally occurring bioactive LF–OPN complex. While describing their wide variety of physiological, biochemical, and nutritional functionalities, we will emphasize their specific roles in the perinatal period. Afterwards, we will evaluate their ability to control oxidative stress, inflammation, gut mucosal barrier, and intestinal microbiota in link with cardiometabolic disorders (CMD) (obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension) and associated complications (diabetes and atherosclerosis). This review will not only attempt to highlight the mechanisms of action, but it will critically discuss the potential therapeutic applications of the underlined bioactive proteins in CMD.

The Effect of a Comprehensive Life-Style Intervention Program of Diet and Exercise on Four Bone-Derived Proteins, FGF-23, Osteopontin, NGAL and Sclerostin, in Overweight or Obese Children and Adolescents. Nutrients 2022; 14:3772. [PMID: 36145151 PMCID: PMC9505283 DOI: 10.3390/nu14183772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2022] [Revised: 09/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The adipose and bone tissues demonstrate considerable interconnected endocrine function. In the present study, we determined the concentrations of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), osteopontin, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and sclerostin in 345 children and adolescents who were overweight or obese (mean age ± SD mean: 10.36 ± 0.16 years; 172 males, 173 females; 181 prepubertal; and 164 pubertal) before and after their participation in a comprehensive life-style intervention program of diet and exercise for one year. Following the one-year life-style interventions, there was a significant decrease in BMI (p < 0.01), FGF-23 (p < 0.05), osteopontin (p < 0.01) and NGAL (p < 0.01), and an increase in sclerostin (p < 0.01) concentrations. BMI z-score (b = 0.242, p < 0.05) and fat mass (b = 0.431, p < 0.05) were the best positive predictors and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) (b = −0.344, p < 0.05) was the best negative predictor of the change of osteopontin. NGAL concentrations correlated positively with HbA1C (b = 0.326, p < 0.05), WHtR (b = 0.439, p < 0.05) and HOMA-IR (b = 0.401, p < 0.05), while BMI (b = 0.264, p < 0.05), fat mass (b = 1.207, p < 0.05), HDL (b = 0.359, p < 0.05) and waist circumference (b = 0.263, p < 0.05) were the best positive predictors of NGAL. These results indicate that FGF-23, osteopontin, NGAL and sclerostin are associated with being overweight or obese and are altered in relation to alterations in BMI. They also indicate a crosstalk between adipose tissue and bone tissue and may play a role as potential biomarkers of glucose metabolism. Further studies are required to delineate the physiological mechanisms underlying this association in children and adolescents.

Abstract
Brain disorders, including stroke, Alzheimer's disease, depression, and chronic pain, are difficult to effectively treat. These major brain disorders have high incidence and mortality rates in the general population, and seriously affect not only the patient's quality of life, but also increases the burden of social medical care. Aerobic physical exercise is considered an effective adjuvant therapy for preventing and treating major brain disorders. Although the underlying regulatory mechanisms are still unknown, systemic processes may be involved. Here, this review aimed to reveal that aerobic physical exercise improved depression and several brain functions, including cognitive functions, and provided chronic pain relief. We concluded that aerobic physical exercise helps to maintain the regulatory mechanisms of brain homeostasis through anti-inflammatory mechanisms and enhanced synaptic plasticity and inhibition of hippocampal atrophy and neuronal apoptosis. In addition, we also discussed the cross-system mechanisms of aerobic exercise in regulating imbalances in brain function, such as the “bone-brain axis.” Furthermore, our findings provide a scientific basis for the clinical application of aerobic physical exercise in the fight against brain disorders.

Abstract
Background: Osteopontin (OPN) is regarded as a proinflammatory and proatherogenic molecule related to atherosclerosis. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between serum OPN and aortic stiffness (AS) of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Methods: OPN and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) were measured by a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit and a validated tonometry system, respectively. Patients with cfPWV > 10 m/s were designated into the AS group. Results: Twenty-two patients (31.4%) were segregated into the AS group. Multivariate linear and logistic regression analysis showed that OPN was significantly related to cfPWV and was an independent predictor of AS. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that OPN was correlated with AS with an area under the curve of 0.903 (95% CI 0.809−0.961, p < 0.001). Conclusions: For PD patients, the serum OPN level was correlated with cfPWV and could play an important role in the process of AS.

Abstract
Epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT) secretes an array of cytokines to regulate the metabolism of organs and tissues in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity, but its effects on bone metabolism are not well understood. Here, we report that macrophages in eWAT are a main source of osteopontin, which selectively circulates to the bone marrow and promotes the degradation of the bone matrix by activating osteoclasts, as well as modulating bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) to engulf the lipid droplets released from adipocytes in the bone marrow of mice. However, the lactate accumulation induced by osteopontin regulation blocks both lipolysis and osteoclastogenesis in BMDMs by limiting the energy regeneration by ATP6V0d2 in lysosomes. Both surgical removal of eWAT and local injection of either clodronate liposomes (for depleting macrophages) or osteopontin-neutralizing antibody show comparable amelioration of HFD-induced bone loss in mice. These results provide an avenue for developing therapeutic strategies to mitigate obesity-related bone disorders.

Abstract
Objective: Osteopontin (OPN) is involved in vascular calcification and atherosclerosis. We evaluated the association between serum OPN levels and the first postoperative hospitalization and all-cause mortality in patients who received kidney transplantation (KT). Materials and Methods: Seventy KT recipients were enrolled in this study from January to April 2012. The primary end point was first postoperative hospitalization or death. All patients were monitored in the outpatient clinics until June 30, 2017. Serum OPN level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: During follow-up (median length, 65 months), 47 first postoperative hospitalizations and 8 deaths occurred. In comparison with serum median OPN levels, serum OPN level was positively associated with KT duration (P = 0.048), serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN; P = 0.043), and serum creatinine levels (P = 0.045) but negatively associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR; P = 0.049). Hospitalized KT recipients had a higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) (P = 0.032), BUN (P = 0.002), and serum OPN level (P = 0.001) but lower eGFR (P = 0.030) than did patients not hospitalized. KT recipients who died had higher serum level of creatinine (P = 0.009) and OPN (P = 0.001) but lower eGFR (P = 0.036) than did surviving patients. Multivariate Cox analysis adjusted for age, gender, DM, hypertension, eGFR, KT duration, and steroid used showed that serum OPN level was associated with both first postoperative hospitalization (P = 0.049) and all-cause mortality (P = 0.017). Conclusions: Serum OPN level is a potential biomarker for first postoperative hospitalization and all-cause mortality in KT recipients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Adult women with long-time anorexia nervosa (AN) are believed to have osteopenia (T-score ≤ 1.0) in 93 % and osteoporosis (T-score ≤ 2.5) in 38 %. Bone microarchitecture assessed by Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) predicts osteoporotic fractures. Our aim was to evaluate the microarchitecture in adult females with AN by determining TBS and to identify factors potentially associated with TBS, such as bone turnover markers. METHODS 20 female patients with AN (DSM IV), aged 27.8 ± 4.4 years, BMI 16.6 ± 0.6 kg/m2 and duration of illness of 8.5 ± 5 years had previously been evaluated with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). TBS measurements were now obtained, using iNsight software, from spinal DXA images. Serum levels of bone turnover markers were determined in patients and healthy normal-weight controls. RESULTS Compared to controls serum values of osteopontin were higher (p = 0.009). BMD in patients with AN was reduced by at least 1.0 SD at one or more skeletal sites in 65 % of patients and by at least 2.5 SD in 20 %. Only one of the patients (5%) had suffered a fracture. TBS (mean 1.35 ± 0.06; median 1.36 (1.23-1.44) was in the lower normal range (≥ 1.35). 40 % of patients showed partially (> 1.20 and < 1.35) but none showed a fully degraded micro-architecture. CONCLUSIONS In Swedish AN patients we found a low reduction of BMD and fracture history. The bone microarchitecture, evaluated for the first time for this group by TBS, was only modestly compromised, and to a lesser extent than expected for this group of patients with AN.

Two specific monoclonal antibodies (mAb-8A03 and mAb-3D12) with high affinity for β-CTX were selected, and, under optimized conditions, a chemiluminescence immunoassay method (CLIA) for β-CTX was established. The CLIA of β-CTX detected β-CTX in a wide range of 2.0-6000 ng/L. The recovery rate in serum is 95-105%, the specificity is high, and the cross-reaction rate with common easily interfering substances is low (not more than 0.01%). The CLIA correlates well with Roche electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA), with a correlation coefficient of 0.9551, which fully meets the requirements of clinical analysis. The developed β-CTX CLIA kit has high sensitivity and good stability. It has the same performance as the commercial Roche ECLIA kit and can be applied clinically.

Abstract
Bone has traditionally been regarded as a structural organ that supports and protects the various organs of the body. Recent studies suggest that bone also acts as an endocrine organ to regulate whole-body metabolism. Particularly, homeostasis of the bone is shown to be necessary for brain development and function. Abnormal bone metabolism is associated with the onset and progression of neurological disorders. Recently, multiple bone-derived modulators have been shown to participate in brain function and neurological disorders, including osteocalcin, lipocalin 2, and osteopontin, as have bone marrow-derived cells such as mesenchymal stem cells, hematopoietic stem cells, and microglia-like cells. This review summarizes current findings regarding the roles of these bone-derived modulators in the brain, and also follows their involvement in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. The content of this review may aide in the development of promising therapeutic strategies for neurological disorders via targeting bone.

Abstract
The study aimed to contribute to understanding the role of CRP, chemerin, fetuin-A and osteopontin and to assess their suitability as biomarkers of early stages of cardiovascular diseases in psoriasis vulgaris. Serum levels measured in 28 patients and 22 controls. Patients: increased levels of CRP (p<0.001), chemerin (p<0.05), osteopontin (p<0.05) and decreased levels of fetuin-A (p<0.05), significant relationships between CRP and fetuin-A (rho=0.530, p<0.01), CRP and chemerin (rho=0.543, p<0.01), CRP and age (rho=0.590, p<0.001), osteopontin and fetuin-A (r=-0.415, p<0.05), chemerin and PASI score (rho=-0.424, p<0.05). We confirmed specific roles of the biomarkers in psoriasis. CRP, fetuin-A and osteopontin could be considered appropriate markers for the detection of early stages of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Besides the classical ones (support/protection, hematopoiesis, storage for calcium, and phosphate) multiple roles emerged for bone tissue, definitively making it an organ. Particularly, the endocrine function, and in more general terms, the capability to sense and integrate different stimuli and to send signals to other tissues, has highlighted the importance of bone in homeostasis. Bone is highly innervated and hosts all nervous system branches; bone cells are sensitive to most of neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, and neurohormones that directly affect their metabolic activity and sensitivity to mechanical stimuli. Indeed, bone is the principal mechanosensitive organ. Thanks to the mechanosensing resident cells, and particularly osteocytes, mechanical stimulation induces metabolic responses in bone forming (osteoblasts) and bone resorbing (osteoclasts) cells that allow the adaptation of the affected bony segment to the changing environment. Once stimulated, bone cells express and secrete, or liberate from the entrapping matrix, several mediators (osteokines) that induce responses on distant targets. Brain is a target of some of these mediator [e.g., osteocalcin, lipocalin2, sclerostin, Dickkopf-related protein 1 (Dkk1), and fibroblast growth factor 23], as most of them can cross the blood-brain barrier. For others, a role in brain has been hypothesized, but not yet demonstrated. As exercise effectively modifies the release and the circulating levels of these osteokines, it has been hypothesized that some of the beneficial effects of exercise on brain functions may be associated to such a bone-to-brain communication. This hypothesis hides an interesting clinical clue: may well-addressed physical activities support the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases?

J Clin Lab Anal 2020; 34:e23204. [PMID: 32406547 PMCID: PMC7246377 DOI: 10.1002/jcla.23204] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2019] [Revised: 11/17/2019] [Accepted: 12/22/2019] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip fracture in the elderly is a health burden worldwide due to its high mortality rate. This study was conducted to determine the possible mechanisms of osteopontin (OPN) and β-carboxy-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen (β-CTX) in hip fracture in the elderly. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the study, we recruited 108 elderly patients with hip fracture diagnosed from May 2012 to May 2015 at the Third Hospital of Xiamen and 86 healthy individuals without a history of hip fracture were taken as controls. Serum levels of OPN and β-CTX were then determined. The T and Z values for bone mineral density (BMD) were also measured. Moreover, logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the risk and protective factors for hip fracture in the elderly. RESULTS Serum levels of both OPN and β-CTX were increased in elderly patients with hip fracture. OPN was positively correlated with β-CTX. In addition, the levels of OPN and β-CTX shared a positive association with the age, and a negative association with the BMD, in terms of T and Z values of the hip. In addition, increased BMD and outdoor sports might be protective factors for hip fracture, and an increase in levels of OPN and β-CTX might be associated with a higher risk of hip fracture in the elderly population. DISCUSSION Collectively, increased serum levels of OPN and β-CTX might be correlated with a higher risk of a hip fracture and have predictive values in the occurrence of hip fracture in the elderly.

Abstract
This article presents a scoping review and synthesis of research findings investigating the toxic cellular accumulation of dysregulated inorganic phosphate-phosphate toxicity-as a pathophysiological determinant of diabetes and diabetic complications. Phosphorus, an essential micronutrient, is closely linked to the cellular metabolism of glucose for energy production, and serum inorganic phosphate is often transported into cells along with glucose during insulin therapy. Mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, neuronal degeneration, and pancreatic cancer are associated with dysregulated levels of phosphate in diabetes. Ectopic calcification involving deposition of calcium-phosphate crystals is prevalent throughout diabetic complications, including vascular calcification, nephropathy, retinopathy, and bone disorders. A low-glycemic, low-phosphate dietary intervention is proposed for further investigations in the treatment and prevention of diabetes and related diabetic pathologies.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Based on a systematic literature search, we performed a comprehensive review of risk factors for falls and fractures in patients with diabetes. RECENT FINDINGS Patients with diabetes have an increased risk of fractures partly explained by increased bone fragility. Several risk factors as altered body composition including sarcopenia and obesity, impaired postural control, gait deficits, neuropathy, cardiovascular disease, and other co-morbidities are considered to increase the risk of falling. Diabetes and bone fragility is well studied, but new thresholds for fracture assessment should be considered. In general, the risk factors for falls in patients with diabetes are well documented in several studies. However, the fall mechanisms among diabetic patients have only been assessed in few studies. Thus, a gab of knowledge exits and may influence the current understanding and treatment, in order to reduce the risk of falling and thereby prevent fractures.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with an increased risk of fracture, which has been reported in several epidemiological studies. However, bone mineral density in T2D is increased and underestimates the fracture risk. Common risk factors for fracture do not fully explain the increased fracture risk observed in patients with T2D. We propose that the pathogenesis of increased fracture risk in T2D is due to low bone turnover caused by osteocyte dysfunction resulting in bone microcracks and fractures. Increased levels of sclerostin may mediate the low bone turnover and may be a novel marker of increased fracture risk, although further research is needed. An impaired incretin response in T2D may also affect bone turnover. Accumulation of advanced glycosylation endproducts may also impair bone strength. Concerning antidiabetic medication, the glitazones are detrimental to bone health and associated with increased fracture risk, and the sulphonylureas may increase fracture risk by causing hypoglycemia. So far, the results on the effect of other antidiabetics are ambiguous. No specific guideline for the management of bone disease in T2D is available and current evidence on the effects of antiosteoporotic medication in T2D is sparse. The aim of this review is to collate current evidence of the pathogenesis, detection and treatment of diabetic bone disease.
