Influences of the IL-6 cytokine family on bone structure and function. Cytokine 2021; 146:155655. [PMID: 34332274 DOI: 10.1016/j.cyto.2021.155655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2021] [Revised: 07/08/2021] [Accepted: 07/12/2021] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
The IL-6 family of cytokines comprises a large group of cytokines that all act via the formation of a signaling complex that includes the glycoprotein 130 (gp130) receptor. Despite this, many of these cytokines have unique roles that regulate the activity of bone forming osteoblasts, bone resorbing osteoclasts, bone-resident osteocytes, and cartilage cells (chondrocytes). These include specific functions in craniofacial development, longitudinal bone growth, and the maintenance of trabecular and cortical bone structure, and have been implicated in musculoskeletal pathologies such as craniosynostosis, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and heterotopic ossifications. This review will work systematically through each member of this family and provide an overview and an update on the expression patterns and functions of each of these cytokines in the skeleton, as well as their negative feedback pathways, particularly suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3). The specific cytokines described are interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 11 (IL-11), oncostatin M (OSM), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), cardiotrophin 1 (CT-1), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), cardiotrophin-like cytokine factor 1 (CLCF1), neuropoietin, humanin and interleukin 27 (IL-27).

Abstract
Interleukin‐10 (IL‐10) displays well‐documented anti‐inflammatory effects, but its effects on osteoblast differentiation have not been investigated. In this study, we found IL‐10 negatively regulates microRNA‐7025‐5p (miR‐7025‐5p), the down‐regulation of which enhances osteoblast differentiation. Furthermore, through luciferase reporter assays, we found evidence that insulin‐like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) is a miR‐7025‐5p target gene that positively regulates osteoblast differentiation. In vivo studies indicated that the pre‐injection of IL‐10 leads to increased bone formation, while agomiR‐7025‐5p injection delays fracture healing. Taken together, these results indicate that IL‐10 induces osteoblast differentiation via regulation of the miR‐7025‐5p/IGF1R axis. IL‐10 therefore represents a promising therapeutic strategy to promote fracture healing.

Abstract
Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is a soluble interleukin-6 family cytokine that regulates a number of physiologic functions, including normal skeletal remodeling. LIF signals through the cytokine co-receptor glycoprotein-130 in complex with its cytokine-specific receptor [LIF receptor (LIFR)] to activate signaling cascades in cells of the skeletal system, including stromal cells, chondrocytes, osteoblasts, osteocytes, adipocytes, and synovial fibroblasts. LIF action on skeletal cells is cell-type specific, and frequently dependent on the state of cell differentiation. This review describes the expression patterns of LIF and LIFR in bone, their regulation by physiological and inflammatory agents, as well as cell-specific influences of LIF on osteoblast, osteoclast, chondrocyte, and adipocyte differentiation. The actions of LIF in normal skeletal growth and maintenance, in pathological states (e.g. autocrine tumor cell signaling and growth in bone) and inflammatory conditions (e.g. arthritis) will be discussed, as well as the signaling pathways activated by LIF and their importance in bone formation and resorption.

Abstract
Leukemia-inhibitory factor (LIF) is a pleiotropic cytokine expressed by multiple tissue types. The LIF receptor shares a common gp130 receptor subunit with the IL-6 cytokine superfamily. LIF signaling is mediated mainly by JAK-STAT (janus-kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription) pathways and is abrogated by the SOCS (suppressor-of cytokine signaling) and PIAS (protein inhibitors of activated STAT) proteins. In addition to classic hematopoietic and neuronal actions, LIF plays a critical role in several endocrine functions including the utero-placental unit, the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis, bone cell metabolism, energy homeostasis, and hormonally responsive tumors. This paper reviews recent advances in our understanding of molecular mechanisms regulating LIF expression and action and also provides a systemic overview of LIF-mediated endocrine regulation. Local and systemic LIF serve to integrate multiple developmental and functional cell signals, culminating in maintaining appropriate hormonal and metabolic homeostasis. LIF thus functions as a critical molecular interface between the neuroimmune and endocrine systems.

Abstract
Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) regulates cell growth and is produced by a variety of tissues, including bone. Previously we have shown that recombinant human LIF induced an increase in osteoclast number, bone formation, and DNA synthesis. In the present study, we have defined the cells in intact bone at which the proliferative effects of LIF occur, using simultaneous enzyme histochemistry and autoradiographic techniques. The area of alkaline phosphatase-positive staining was increased twofold (p = 0.0008) and the number of [3H]thymidine-positive cells was increased twofold (p = 0.0024) in LIF-treated bones. The radiolabeled cells either colocalized with alkaline phosphatase or were in the osteoprogenitor region. They were not found in the acid phosphatase-positive staining osteoclasts. These results indicate that cells which have a mitogenic response to LIF are bone-forming rather than bone-resorbing cells.

Abstract
The bone marrow stroma consists of a heterogeneous population of cells which participate in osteogenic, adipogenic, and hematopoietic events. The murine stromal cell line, BMS2, exhibits the adipocytic and osteoblastic phenotypes in vitro. BMS2 differentiation was examined in response to cytokines which share the gp130 signal transducing protein within their receptor complex. Four of the cytokines (interleukin 6, interleukin 11, leukemia inhibitory factor, and oncostatin M) inhibited hydrocortisone-induced adipocyte differentiation in a dose dependent manner based on lipid accumulation and lipoprotein lipase enzyme activity. Inhibition occurred only when the cytokines were present during the initial 24 h of the induction period; after 48 h their effects were diminished. Likewise, these cytokines increased alkaline phosphatase enzyme activity twofold in preadipocyte BMS2 cells. Both leukemia inhibitory factor and oncostatin M induced early active gene expression in resting preadipocyte BMS2 cells and decreased the steady state mRNA level of a unique osteoblastic gene marker, osteocalcin. A fifth cytokine whose receptor complex shares the gp130 protein, ciliary neurotrophic factor, did not significantly regulate stromal cell differentiation when added by itself. However, with the addition of a missing component of its receptor complex, ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor alpha protein, this cytokine also inhibited BMS2 adipogenesis. Together, these data indicate that the cytokines whose receptors share the gp130 protein can modulate stromal cell commitment to the adipocyte and osteoblast differentiation pathways.
