Abstract
Bone is a common organ for solid tumor metastasis. Malignant bone tumor becomes insensitive to systemic therapy after colonization, followed by poor prognosis and high relapse rate. Immune and bone cells in situ constitute a unique immune microenvironment, which plays a crucial role in the context of bone metastasis. This review firstly focuses on lymphatic cells in bone metastatic cancer, including their function in tumor dissemination, invasion, growth and possible cytotoxicity-induced eradication. Subsequently, we examine myeloid cells, namely macrophages, myeloid-derived suppressor cells, dendritic cells, and megakaryocytes, evaluating their interaction with cytotoxic T lymphocytes and contribution to bone metastasis. As important components of skeletal tissue, osteoclasts and osteoblasts derived from bone marrow stromal cells, engaging in 'vicious cycle' accelerate osteolytic bone metastasis. We also explain the concept tumor dormancy and investigate underlying role of immune microenvironment on it. Additionally, a thorough review of emerging treatments for bone metastatic malignancy in clinical research, especially immunotherapy, is presented, indicating current challenges and opportunities in research and development of bone metastasis therapies.

Anti-resorption role of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) during large-scale bone reconstruction using porous titanium alloy scaffolds through inhibiting osteoclast differentiation. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2023; 154:213634. [PMID: 37783002 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2023.213634] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Revised: 08/31/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ti6Al4V biomaterials combine with low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been reported with great bone regeneration capacity. It is important to better understand how LIPUS benefits bone microenvironment to seek for target of therapeutic medicine. Osteoclast differentiation plays a crucial role in bone resorption. Recent advances in molecular biology have revealed that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modifications can modulate biological processes, but their role in bone biology, particularly in osteoclast differentiation, remains unclear. We aim to understand how LIPUS regulates bone microenvironment especially osteoclast formation during bone regeneration to provide new therapeutic options for preventing and delaying bone resorption, thus with better bone regeneration efficiency. RESULTS 1. LIPUS promoted bone ingrowth and bone maturity while inhibiting osteoclast formation within Ti6Al4V scaffolds in large-scale bone defect model. 2. LIPUS was found to inhibit osteoclast differentiation by decreasing the overall expression of osteoclast markers in vitro. 3. LIPUS decreases RNA m6A-modification level through upregulating FTO expression during osteoclast differentiation during. 4. Inhibiting FTO expression and function leads to less inhibition during osteoclast differentiation. CONCLUSION LIPUS suppresses osteoclast differentiation during bone regeneration through reducing m6A modification of osteoclastic RNAs by up regulating FTO expression.

Abstract
Senescence is an irreversible cell-cycle arrest process induced by environmental, genetic, and epigenetic factors. An accumulation of senescent cells in bone results in age-related disorders, and one of the common problems is osteoporosis. Deciphering the basic mechanisms contributing to the chronic ailments of aging may uncover new avenues for targeted treatment. This review focuses on the mechanisms and the most relevant research advancements in skeletal cellular senescence. To identify new options for the treatment or prevention of age-related chronic diseases, researchers have targeted hallmarks of aging, including telomere attrition, genomic instability, cellular senescence, and epigenetic alterations. First, this chapter provides an overview of the fundamentals of bone tissue, the causes of skeletal involution, and the role of cellular senescence in bone and bone diseases such as osteoporosis. Next, this review will discuss the utilization of pharmacological interventions in aging tissues and, more specifically, highlight the role of senescent cells to identify the most effective and safe strategies.

Abstract
Osteoclasts (OCs) have been the unique cell type exhibiting the bone-resorption activity in body. It is important to identify drugs to resist osteoclastogenesis to manage the bone-loss disorders. Huangqi Sanxian decoction (HQSXD) is utilized for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) for a long history in East Asia. This work aimed to examine HQSXD’s activity in OC differentiation. Based on staining with tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), it was found that HQSXD suppressed OC generation under the induction of RANKL produced in the bone marrow-derived monocytes/macrophages (BMMs), with no cytotoxic effect. Later analysis like molecular exploration and network pharmacology (NP) suggested the role of HQSXD in suppressing genes associated with osteoclastogenesis via PI3K/Akt-mediated mechanism dose-dependently. This work might illustrate the molecular pharmacological mechanism involved in HQSXD’s effect on treating OC-associated disorders. Moreover, NP was found to modernize traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) research.

Abstract
Bone is a very dynamic tissue hosting different cell types whose functions are regulated by a plethora of membrane-bound and soluble molecules. Intercellular communication was recently demonstrated to be also sustained by the exchange of extracellular vesicles (EVs). These are cell-derived nanosized structures shuttling biologically active molecules, such as nucleic acids and proteins. The bone microenvironment is a preferential site of primary and metastatic tumors, in which cancer cells find a fertile soil to “seed and blossom”. Nowadays, many oncogenic processes are recognized to be sustained by EVs. For example, EVs can directly fuel the vicious cycle in the bone/bone marrow microenvironment. EVs create a favourable environment for tumor growth by affecting osteoblasts, osteoclasts, osteocytes, adipocytes, leukocytes, and endothelial cells. At the same time other crucial tumor-mediated events, such as the premetastatic niche formation, tumor cell dormancy, as well as drug resistance, have been described to be fostered by tumor-derived EVs. In this review, we will discuss the main body of literature describing how the cancer cells use the EVs for their growth into the bone and for educating the bone microenvironment to host metastases.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery is the most common and effective treatment of severe obesity; however, these bariatric procedures always result in detrimental effects on bone metabolism by underlying mechanisms. This study aims to investigate the skeletal response to bariatric surgery and to explore whether Clostridium butyricum alleviates gut microbiota alteration-induced bone loss after bariatric surgery. Consequently, male SD rats received Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) surgery, respectively, followed by body weight recording. The bone loss after bariatric surgery was further determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), micro-CT measurement, histologic analyses, and Western blot. Besides, 16S rDNA gene sequencing was performed to determine the gut microbiota alteration after surgery, and intervention with fecal microbiota from RYGB donor was conducted in obese SD rats, followed by C. butyricum administration. Accordingly, rats in the RYGB and SG groups maintained sustained weight loss, and DXA and micro-CT measurement further demonstrated significant bone loss after bariatric surgery. Besides, histologic and Western blot analyses validated enhanced osteoclastogenesis and inhibited osteoblastogenesis and defective autophagy after surgery. The 16S rDNA gene sequencing suggested a significant alteration of gut microbiota composition in the RYGB group, and intervention with fecal microbiota from RYGB donor further determined that this kind of alteration contributed to the bone loss after RYGB. Meanwhile, C. butyricum might protect against this postoperative bone loss by promoting osteoblast autophagy. In summary, this study suggests novel mechanisms to clarify the skeletal response to bariatric surgery and provides a potential candidate for the treatment of bone disorder among bariatric patients. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The significance of this study is the discovery of obvious bone loss and defective autophagy after bariatric surgery. Besides, it is revealed that gut microbiota alterations could be the reason for impaired bone mass after bariatric surgery. Furthermore, Clostridium butyricum could alleviate the gut microbiota alteration-induced bone loss after bariatric surgery by promoting osteoblast autophagy.

Abstract
Osteoclastogenesis requires the involvement of transcription factors and degrading enzymes, and is regulated by upstream and downstream signalling. However, c-Fos how regulates osteoclastogenesis through autophagy remain unclear. This study aimed to explore the role of c-Fos during osteoprotegerin (OPG)-mediated suppression of osteoclastogenesis. We found that the number of osteoclasts and the expression of c-Fos, MMP-9, CAⅡ, Src and p62 were decreased after treated with OPG, including attenuation the PI3K/Akt and the TAK1/S6 signalling pathways, but the expression of Beclin1 and LC3Ⅱ were increased. Knockdown of Beclin1 could reverse the expression of c-Fos and MMP-9 by activating the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway, but inhibiting the autophagy and the TAK1/S6 signalling pathway. In addition, inhibition of autophagy using the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 did not rescues OPG-mediated suppression of osteoclastogenesis, but caused reduction of the expression of c-Fos and CAⅡ by attenuating the autophagy, as well as the PI3K/Akt and the TAK1/S6 signalling pathways. Furthermore, continuous activation of c-Fos could reverse OPG-mediated suppression of osteoclastogenesis by activating the autophagy and the PI3K/Akt and the TAK1/S6 signalling pathways. Thus, overexpression of c-Fos could reverse OPG-mediated suppression of osteoclastogenesis via activation of Beclin1-induced autophagy, indicating c-Fos might serve as a new candidate for bone-related basic studies.

The Role of Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) in the Epigenetic Regulation of Bone Metabolism and Osteoporosis. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21228682.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are complex phospholipidic structures actively released by cells. EVs are recognized as powerful means of intercellular communication since they contain many signaling molecules (including lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids). In parallel, changes in epigenetic processes can lead to changes in gene function and finally lead to disease onset and progression. Recent breakthroughs have revealed the complex roles of non-coding RNAs (microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs)) in epigenetic regulation. Moreover, a substantial body of evidence demonstrates that non-coding RNAs can be shuttled among the cells and tissues via EVs, allowing non-coding RNAs to reach distant cells and exert systemic effects. Resident bone cells, including osteoclasts, osteoblasts, osteocytes, and endothelial cells, are tightly regulated by non-coding RNAs, and many of them can be exported from the cells to neighboring ones through EVs, triggering pathological conditions. For these reasons, researchers have also started to exploit EVs as a theranostic tool to address osteoporosis. In this review, we summarize some recent findings regarding the EVs’ involvement in the fine regulation of non-coding RNAs in the context of bone metabolism and osteoporosis.

Abstract
To maintain normal cellular and physiological function, sufficient oxygen is required. Recently, evidence has suggested that hypoxia, either pathological or environmental, may influence bone health. It appears that bone cells are distinctly responsive to hypoxic stimuli; for better or worse, this is still yet to be elucidated. Hypoxia has been shown to offer potentially therapeutic effects for bone by inducing an osteogenic-angiogenic response, although, others have noted excessive osteoclastic bone resorption instead. Much evidence suggests that the hypoxic-inducible pathway is integral in mediating the changes in bone metabolism. Furthermore, many factors associated with hypoxia including changes in energy metabolism, acid-base balance and the increased generation of reactive oxygen species, are known to influence bone metabolism. This review aims to examine some of the putative mechanisms responsible for hypoxic-induced alterations of bone metabolism, with regard to osteoclasts and osteoblasts, both positive and negative.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are the only cells in the body with a bone-resorption function. The identification of anti-osteoclastogenic agents is important in managing bone loss diseases. The dried vines of Trachelospermum jasminoides (Lindl.) Lem. have been used as a herbal medicine to treat musculoskeletal soreness in East Asia for hundreds of years. In the present study, we focused on the effect of Trachelospermum jasminoides (Lindl.) Lem. extract (TJE) on osteoclast differentiation. As indicated by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, TJE inhibited osteoclastogenesis induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand from bone marrow-derived monocytes/macrophages without showing any cytotoxicity. In addition, TJE effectively suppressed F-actin ring formation and the bone-resorption function of osteoclasts. The subsequent studies such as network pharmacology and molecular investigation, revealed that TJE inhibited osteoclastogenesis-related genes in a dose- and time-dependent manner through NF-κB, MAPK and AKT-mediated mechanism followed by the nuclear factor of activated T cells, cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1)/c-Fos pathway. Our study could potentially explain the underlying molecular pharmacology of TJE in osteoclast-related diseases. What's more, it suggested that network pharmacology could help the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The administration of bisphosphonate medications, which target osteoclastic-bone remodelling, to juvenile and adult racehorses is a matter of debate owing to concerns that these molecules remain bound to the bone-mineralised matrix and may interfere with subsequent bone growth, adaptation to exercise and healing of bone microdamage in equine athletes. Osteoclasts participate in endochondral ossification, subchondral bone remodelling and bone repair. There is a knowledge gap on the role of equine osteoclast biology in the growth and maturation of joint surfaces and this information is important to inform judicious bisphosphonate use. OBJECTIVES Measure and compare the osteoclast density in the subchondral bone of Thoroughbred (TB) distal third metacarpi (McIII) at different sites, varying depths from the articular surface and with age (0-84 months). STUDY DESIGN Ex vivo cadaveric study. METHODS McIIIs from foals, yearlings and adults were collected, fixed in formaldehyde and stored at 4°C. Sections were cut from the lateral hemi-metacarpus, stained and scored for cartilage degeneration. Osteoclasts were counted on immunohistochemically (Cathepsin K) stained sections. Osteoclast density was compared in regions of interest (ROIs-the sagittal ridge, axial and abaxial condyle) and also at two depths (0-3 mm and 3-6 mm) into the subchondral bone below the osteochondral junction. RESULTS The osteoclast density was consistently highest in the subchondral cortical bone plate (0-3 mm) when compared with the deeper trabecular bone in all age groups. Furthermore, the osteoclast density was significantly higher in juvenile Thoroughbreds (foals and yearlings) within both sites in the subchondral bone when compared with adults. MAIN LIMITATIONS The number of specimens available for study was restricted. CONCLUSIONS Osteoclasts are important in normal McIII epiphyseal and articular surface maturation and have a propensity to localise at the osteochondral junction and subchondral cortical bone plate zone in juvenile Thoroughbreds.

Abstract
Osteoimmunology was coined about twenty years ago to identify a strict cross talk between bone niche and immune system both in physiological and pathological activities, including cancer. Several molecules are involved in the complex interaction between bone niche, immune and cancer cells. The Receptor Activator of NF-kB (RANK)/RANK Ligand (RANKL/Osteoprotegerin (OPG) pathway plays a crucial role in bone cells/cancer interactions with subsequently immune system control failure, bone destruction, inhibition of effect and metastasis outcome. The bidirectional cross talk between bone and immune system could became a potential target for anticancer drugs. Several studies evidenced a direct anticancer role with improved survival of bone-targeted therapies such as bisphosphonates and RANKL antagonist Denosumab. Conversely, initial data evidenced a possible anti-bone resorption effect of systemic anticancer drugs through and immunomodulation activity, i.e. new generation antiandrogens (Abiraterone) in prostate cancer. All data could open a future rationale of combined bone, immunologic and targeted therapies in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Bone augmentation is increasingly important in implantology. Bone substitute materials exert essential roles during bone augmentation process. However, accelerating bone substitute materials remodeling and acquiring high bone architecture quality was still the challenges of bone augmentation. Accumulated studies had suggested osteoclasts is the key cell type to resorb bone or bone substitute materials. Our previous study and other studies suggested osteoclasts contributed to bone formation by promoting osteoblast function and facilitate angiogenesis. We hypothesized that bone substitute materials loaded osteoclastogenic cytokines or osteoclast progenitors will help to bone substitute materials rapid remodeling and subsequent bone formation. Our hypothesis could help to lessen long-term post-bone augmentation period and acquire better bone quality for osseointegration.

Abstract
The surface structure of calcium phosphate (CaP) ceramic plays an important role in its osteoinductivity; however, little is known about its effects on osteoclastogenesis. In this study, an intramuscular implantation model suggested a potential relationship between hydroxyapatite (HA)-induced bone formation and osteoclast appearance in the non-osseous site, which might be modulated by scaffold surface structure. Then, three dense HA discs with different grain sizes from biomimetic nanoscale (∼100 nm) to submicron scale (∼500 nm) were fabricated via distinct sintering procedures, and their impacts on osteoclastic differentiation of RAW 264.7 macrophages under RANKL stimulation were further investigated. Our results showed that compared with the ones in the submicron-scale dimension, nano-structured HA discs markedly impaired osteoclastic formation and function, as evidenced by inhibited cell fusion, reduced osteoclast size, less-defined actin ring, increased osteoclast apoptosis, suppressed expression of osteoclast specific genes and proteins, decreased TRAP-positive cells, and hampered resorption activity. This demonstrated that the surface structure of CaP ceramics has a great influence on osteoclastogenesis, which might be further related to its osteoinductive capacity. These findings might not only help us gain insight into biomolecular events during CaP-involved osteoinduction, but also offer a principle for designing orthopaedic implants with an ability of regulating both osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis to achieve the desired performance.

Abstract
The interplay between bone formation by osteoblasts and bone resorption by osteoclasts has a critical effect on bone remodelling processes, and resultant bone quality. Bone scaffolds combined with anti-resorptive bisphosphonate drugs are a promising approach to achieving bone regeneration. Here, we have examined the synergistic effects of the bisphosphonate alendronate (ALD) coated onto calcium phosphate (CaP) modified, sintered bioactive glass 45S5 (BG) scaffolds, on osteoblast stimulation and osteoclast inhibition. After BG pre-treatment with ALD (10-8 M) for 5 days, human MG-63 osteoblasts displayed increased cellular proliferation and significantly enhanced alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP), in comparison with a non-ALD control BG. In contrast, human THP-1-derived osteoclasts cultured with 10-8 M ALD pretreated BG scaffolds showed a significant decrease in tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAcP) activity, and morphological changes indicative of functional inhibition, including reduced cell size and disruption of the osteoclast sealing zone (F-actin rings). These findings indicate that ALD-coated BG scaffolds promote osteoblast activity and inhibit osteoclast function to enhance bone formation.

Abstract
Osteopetrosis refers to a group of rare genetic bone diseases that are clinically characterized by increased bone mass and fragility. The principal pathogenic defect in patients with chloride channel 7 (CLCN7) gene‑dependent osteopetrosis is reduced osteoclast activity, which leads to decreased bone resorption. Mutations in the CLCN7 gene result in autosomal dominant osteopetrosis type II (ADO‑II), autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (ARO) and intermediate ARO (IARO). In the present study, eight mutations in the CLCN7 gene were identified in six patients with familial osteopetrosis and one patient with sporadic osteopetrosis. Heterozygous mutations c.856C>T (R286W), c.2236T>G (Y746D), c.296A>G (Y99C) and c.937G>A (E313K), and a splice mutation (c.2232‑2A>G) in the CLCN7 gene were detected in patients with ADO‑II. A homozygous mutation c.2377G>C (G793R), and a compound heterozygous mutation c.1409C>T (P470L) and c.647_648dupTG (K217X) were detected in two Chinese families with IARO. Among these mutations, two heterozygous mutations (c.2236T>G and c.2232‑2A>G), one homozygous mutation (c.2377G>C) and the compound heterozygous mutation (c.1409C>T and c.647_648dupTG) are novel, to the best of our knowledge. The present findings not only broaden the allelic spectrum of CLCN7 mutations, but also provide increased knowledge of the clinical phenotypes observed in Chinese patients with osteopetrosis.

Abstract
The injection of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT/A) in the masticatory muscles, to cause its temporary paralysis, is a widely used intervention for clinical disorders such as oromandibular dystonia, sleep bruxism, and aesthetics (i.e., masseteric hypertrophy). Considering that muscle contraction is required for mechano-transduction to maintain bone homeostasis, it is relevant to address the bone adverse effects associated with muscle condition after this intervention. Our aim is to condense the current and relevant literature about mandibular bone loss in fully mature mammals after BoNT/A intervention in the masticatory muscles. Here, we compile evidence from animal models (mice, rats, and rabbits) to clinical studies, demonstrating that BoNT/A-induced masticatory muscle atrophy promotes mandibular bone loss. Mandibular bone-related adverse effects involve cellular and metabolic changes, microstructure degradation, and morphological alterations. While bone loss has been detected at the mandibular condyle or alveolar bone, cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in this process must still be elucidated. Further basic research could provide evidence for designing strategies to control the undesired effects on bone during the therapeutic use of BoNT/A. However, in the meantime, we consider it essential that patients treated with BoNT/A in the masticatory muscles be warned about a putative collateral mandibular bone damage.

Abstract
The term osteoimmunology was coined many years ago to describe the research field that deals with the cross-regulation between bone cells and the immune system. As a matter of fact, many factors that are classically considered immune-related, such as InterLeukins (i.e., IL-6, -11, -17, and -23), Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α, Receptor-Activator of Nuclear factor Kappa B (RANK), and its Ligand (RANKL), Nuclear Factor of Activated T-cell, cytoplasmatic-1 (NFATc1), and others have all been found to be crucial in osteoclast and osteoblast biology. Conversely, bone cells, which we used to think would only regulate each other and take care of remodeling bone, actually regulate immune cells, by creating the so-called "endosteal niche." Both osteoblasts and osteoclasts participate to this niche, either by favoring engraftment, or mobilization of Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs). In this review, we will describe the main milestones at the base of the osteoimmunology and present the key cellular players of the bone-immune system cross-talk, including HSCs, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, bone marrow macrophages, osteomacs, T- and B-lymphocytes, dendritic cells, and neutrophils. We will also briefly describe some pathological conditions in which the bone-immune system cross-talk plays a crucial role, with the final aim to portray the state of the art in the mechanisms regulating the bone-immune system interplay, and some of the latest molecular players in the field. This is important to encourage investigation in this field, to identify new targets in the treatment of bone and immune diseases.

Abstract
Disruption of bone remodelling by diseases such as osteoporosis results in an imbalance between bone formation by osteoblasts and resorption by osteoclasts. Research into these metabolic bone disorders is primarily performed in vivo; however, in the last decade there has been increased interest in generating in vitro models that can reduce or replace our reliance on animal testing. With recent advances in biomaterials and tissue engineering the feasibility of laboratory-based alternatives is growing; however, to date there are no established in vitro models of bone remodelling. In vivo, remodelling is performed by organised packets of osteoblasts and osteoclasts called bone multicellular units (BMUs). The key determinant of whether osteoclasts form and remodelling occurs is the ratio between RANKL, a cytokine which stimulates osteoclastogenesis, and OPG, its inhibitor. This review initially details the different circumstances, conditions, and factors which have been found to modulate the RANKL:OPG ratio, and fundamental factors to be considered if a robust in vitro model is to be developed. Following this, an examination of what has been achieved thus far in replicating remodelling in vitro using three-dimensional co-cultures is performed, before overviewing how such systems are already being utilised in the study of associated diseases, such as metastatic cancer and dental disorders. Finally, a discussion of the most important considerations to be incorporated going forward is presented. This details the need for the use of cells capable of endogenously producing the required cytokines, application of mechanical stimulation, and the presence of appropriate hormones in order to produce a robust model of bone remodelling.

Abstract
Bone metastases are frequently the final fate of breast and prostate cancer patients. According to the definition of metastasis as an incurable disease, to date there are no effective treatments for tumor-associated bone metastases and this represents a real challenge for the researchers in the field. The bone is a heterogeneous environment that represents a fertile soil for tumor cells, supporting their growth. Among the different cell types present in the bone, in this review we will focus our attention on the osteoclasts, which are crucial players in the so called “vicious cycle”, a phenomenon triggered by tumor cells eventually leading to both tumor proliferation as well as bone deregulation, thus fueling the development of bone metastasis. The complex network, linking tumor cells to the bone by activating osteoclasts, represents a fruitful target for the treatment of bone metastases. In this review we will describe how tumor cells perturb the bone microenvironment by actively influencing osteoclast formation and activity. Moreover, we will describe the current antiresorptive drugs employed in the treatment of bone metastases as well as new, targeted therapies able to affect both cancer cells and osteoclasts.

Abstract
Featured as ectopic mineralization along blood vessels, vascular calcification is a major risk factor for a number of prevalent diseases including atherosclerosis. As recent studies identify vascular calcification as a tightly regulated process recapitulating embryonic bone formation, in this study, RNA-seq data generated from rabbit models with inherited or induced hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis were used, to investigate bone formation related signals and biological processes in atherosclerotic vascular calcification. Evident activation of bone formation was found, together with presence and functioning of bone resorption cell osteoclasts, which were found to possibly also promote bone formation in this disease. Resistance of bone formation and calcification were also found, through down-regulation of pro-ossification regulators and up-regulation of protective inhibitors and Wnt antagonists. Levels of activation and resistance of bone formation differed between the two disease models, suggesting different underlying mechanisms and corresponding treatments. In addition, loss-of-function of protective inhibitors KL and SOST, and possibly crucial role of GPNMB were also highlighted for treatment or further study.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are the major protease family responsible for the cleavage of the matrisome (global composition of the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteome) and proteins unrelated to the ECM, generating bioactive molecules. These proteins drive ECM remodeling, in association with tissue-specific and cell-anchored inhibitors (TIMPs and RECK, respectively). In the bone, the ECM mediates cell adhesion, mechanotransduction, nucleation of mineralization, and the immobilization of growth factors to protect them from damage or degradation. Since the first description of an MMP in bone tissue, many other MMPs have been identified, as well as their inhibitors. Numerous functions have been assigned to these proteins, including osteoblast/osteocyte differentiation, bone formation, solubilization of the osteoid during bone resorption, osteoclast recruitment and migration, and as a coupling factor in bone remodeling under physiological conditions. In turn, a number of pathologies, associated with imbalanced bone remodeling, arise mainly from MMP overexpression and abnormalities of the ECM, leading to bone osteolysis or bone formation. In this review, we will discuss the functions of MMPs and their inhibitors in bone cells, during bone remodeling, pathological bone resorption (osteoporosis and bone metastasis), bone repair/regeneration, and emergent roles in bone bioengineering.

Abstract
Biofabrication aims to develop functional, biological constructs using automated processes (additive manufacturing, AM) involving different cell types and biomaterials (Groll et al 2016 Biofabrication 13001 1-6). As bone tissue is based on the crosstalk between osteoblasts and osteoclasts at least, evaluating cell-cell and cell-material interactions is of interest to understand bone remodeling. There is increasing interest in the role of osteoclasts not only considering bone resorption, but also their influence on the proliferation, migration and differentiation of osteoblasts. Osteoid-like, non-mineralized matrix is used here for the 3D cultivation of osteoblast and osteoclast progenitor cells to evaluate interactions in an early stage of bone formation. The AM technology bioplotting was used to tailor a 3D environment with defined properties. These results could be helpful to transfer this approach to the fabrication of bone tissue in regenerative medicine approaches. Gelatin is derived from collagen, which is the main phase of osteoid. Oxidized alginate-gelatin crosslinked hydrogel was used to immobilize osteoblastic (ST2) and osteoclastic (RAW) progenitor cells. Cell viability and number, the expression of different proteins like alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteopontin (OPN) and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) were investigated. Release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) by the immobilized cells was analyzed. Microscopy techniques were used to evaluate cell morphology during an incubation period of 21 days. The biofabrication process was compatible with the cells. Cells migrated, proliferated and expressed their specific proteins indicating cell differentiation. The co-culture showed increased OPN concentration, which is a major protein of the osteoid involved in the mineralization process. TRAP activity was increased compared to single culture. ST2 single culture showed higher ALP activity compared to the co-culture. VEGF concentration of the co-culture was strongly increased. The results indicate the importance of using co-cultures to fabricate bone tissue by biofabrication. Especially the influence of the osteoblast/osteoclast crosstalk, in an early stage of bone formation, is shown here, using a 3D hydrogel based cell culture model created by biofabrication.

Abstract
In vitro differentiation into functional osteoclasts is routinely achieved by incubation of embryonic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, or primary as well as cryopreserved spleen and bone marrow-derived cells with soluble receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand and macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Additionally, osteoclasts can be derived from co-cultures with osteoblasts or by direct administration of soluble receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand to RAW 264.7 macrophage lineage cells. However, despite their benefits for osteoclast-associated research, these different methods have several drawbacks with respect to differentiation yields, time and animal consumption, storage life of progenitor cells or the limited potential for genetic manipulation of osteoclast precursors. In the present study, we therefore established a novel protocol for the differentiation of osteoclasts from murine ER-Hoxb8-immortalized myeloid stem cells. We isolated and immortalized bone marrow cells from wild type and genetically manipulated mouse lines, optimized protocols for osteoclast differentiation and compared these cells to osteoclasts derived from conventional sources. In vitro generated ER-Hoxb8 osteoclasts displayed typical osteoclast characteristics such as multi-nucleation, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining of supernatants and cells, F-actin ring formation and bone resorption activity. Furthermore, the osteoclast differentiation time course was traced on a gene expression level. Increased expression of osteoclast-specific genes and decreased expression of stem cell marker genes during differentiation of osteoclasts from ER-Hoxb8-immortalized myeloid progenitor cells were detected by gene array and confirmed by semi-quantitative and quantitative RT-PCR approaches. In summary, we established a novel method for the quantitative production of murine bona fide osteoclasts from ER-Hoxb8 stem cells generated from wild type or genetically manipulated mouse lines. These cells represent a standardized and theoretically unlimited source for osteoclast-associated research projects.

Abstract
The aging process is accompanied by the onset of disease and a general decline in wellness. Insights into the aging process have revealed a number of cellular hallmarks of aging, among these epigenetic alterations, loss of proteostasis, mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, and stem cell exhaustion. Mitochondrial dysfunction increasingly appears to be a common factor connecting several of these hallmarks, driving the aging process and afflicting tissues throughout the body. Recent research has uncovered a much more complex involvement of mitochondria in the cell than has previously been appreciated and revealed novel ways in which mitochondrial defects feed into disease pathology. In this review we evaluate ways in which problems in mitochondria contribute to disease beyond the well-known mechanisms of oxidative stress and bioenergetic deficits, and we predict the direction that mitochondrial disease research will take in years to come.

Abstract
In about 70% of patients affected by autosomal dominant osteopetrosis type 2 (ADO2), osteoclast activity is reduced by heterozygous mutations of the CLCN7 gene, encoding the ClC-7 chloride/hydrogen antiporter. CLCN7(G215R)-, CLCN7(R767W)-, and CLCN7(R286W)-specific siRNAs silenced transfected mutant mRNA/EGFP in HEK293 cells, in RAW264.7 cells and in human osteoclasts, with no change of CLCN7(WT) mRNA and no effect of scrambled siRNA on the mutant transcripts. Osteoclasts from Clcn7(G213R) ADO2 mice showed reduced bone resorption, a condition rescued by Clcn7(G213R)-specific siRNA. Treatment of ADO2 mice with Clcn7(G213R)-specific siRNA induced increase of bone resorption variables and decrease of trabecular bone mass, leading to an overall improvement of the osteopetrotic bone phenotype. Treatment did not induce overt adverse effects and was effective also with siRNAs specific for other mutants. These results demonstrate that a siRNA-based experimental treatment of ADO2 is feasible, and underscore a translational impact for future strategy to cure this therapeutically neglected form of osteopetrosis.

Factors regulating immunoglobulin production by normal and disease-associated plasma cells. Biomolecules 2015; 5:20-40.

Abstract
Immunoglobulins are molecules produced by activated B cells and plasma cells in response to exposure to antigens. Upon antigen exposure, these molecules are secreted allowing the immune system to recognize and effectively respond to a myriad of pathogens. Immunoglobulin or antibody secreting cells are the mature form of B lymphocytes, which during their development undergo gene rearrangements and selection in the bone marrow ultimately leading to the generation of B cells, each expressing a single antigen-specific receptor/immunoglobulin molecule. Each individual immunoglobulin molecule has an affinity for a unique motif, or epitope, found on a given antigen. When presented with an antigen, activated B cells differentiate into either plasma cells (which secrete large amounts of antibody that is specific for the inducing antigen), or memory B cells (which are long-lived and elicit a stronger and faster response if the host is re-exposed to the same antigen). The secreted form of immunoglobulin, when bound to an antigen, serves as an effector molecule that directs other cells of the immune system to facilitate the neutralization of soluble antigen or the eradication of the antigen-expressing pathogen. This review will focus on the regulation of secreted immunoglobulin by long-lived normal or disease-associated plasma cells. Specifically, the focus will be on signaling and transcriptional events that regulate the development and homeostasis of long-lived immunoglobulin secreting plasma cells.
