NP-12 peptide functionalized nanoparticles counteract the effect of bacterial lipopolysaccharide on cultured osteoblasts. Dent Mater 2024; 40:1296-1304. [PMID: 38871528 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2024.06.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/09/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether nanoparticles (NPs) functionalized with Tideglusib (TDg, NP-12), and deposited on titanium surfaces, would counteract the effect of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on osteoblasts. METHODS Experimental groups were: (a) Titanium discs (TiD), (b) TiD covered with undoped NPs (Un-NPs) and (c) TiD covered with TDg-doped NPs (TDg-NPs). Human primary osteoblasts were cultured onto these discs, in the presence or absence of bacterial LPS. Cell proliferation was assessed by MTT-assay and differentiation by measuring the alkaline phosphatase activity. Mineral nodule formation was assessed by the alizarin red test. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to study the expression of Runx-2, OSX, ALP, OSC, OPG, RANKL, Col-I, BMP-2, BMP-7, TGF-β1, VEGF, TGF-βR1, TGF-βR2, and TGF-βR3 genes. Osteoblasts morphology was studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy. One-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis and Bonferroni multiple comparisons tests were carried out (p < 0.05). RESULTS TDg-NPs enhanced osteoblasts proliferation. Similarly, this group increased ALP production and mineral nodules formation. TDg-NPs on titanium discs resulted in overexpression of the proliferative genes, OSC and OSX, regardless of LPS activity. In the absence of LPS, TDg-NPs up-regulated Runx2, COL-I, ALP, BMP2 and BMP7 genes. OPG/RANKL gene ratios were increased about 2500 and 4,000-fold by TDg-NPs, when LPS was added or not, respectively. In contact with the TDg-NPs osteoblasts demonstrated an elongated spindle-shaped morphology with extracellular matrix production. SIGNIFICANCE TDg-NPs on titanium discs counteracted the detrimental effect of LPS by preventing the decrease on osteoblasts proliferation and mineralization, and produced an overexpression of proliferative and bone-promoting genes on human primary osteoblasts.

Loss of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 in osteoblasts impaired the bone healing in inflammatory microenvironment. Mol Oral Microbiol 2024; 39:136-151. [PMID: 37347649 DOI: 10.1111/omi.12425] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 05/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/24/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the effect of Stat3 on the osteoblast-mediated bone healing in the inflammatory lesion. METHODS The conditional knockout of Stat3 in osteoblasts (Stat3 CKO) was generated via the Cre-loxP recombination system using Osterix-Cre transgenic mice. The calvarial bone inflammatory lesions were established on both Stat3 CKO and wild-type mice, then harvested to assess the bone healing. In response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, osteoblasts from Stat3 CKO and wild-type mice were subjected to examine the formation of calcium deposits, the expression of osteogenic markers (i.e., Runx2, OPN, COL1A1), and osteoclast-related markers (i.e., RANKL, OPG). The EdU and transwell assays were performed to assess the proliferation and migration of the cells. RESULTS A decrease in bone mass and an increase in osteolysis were found in the inflammatory lesions on Stat3 CKO mice when compared with the control. More osteoclastic-like cells and an increased expression of RANKL were observed in Stat3 CKO mice. Both mRNA and protein expressions of Stat3 and osteogenic markers in the lesions were significantly decreased in Stat3 CKO mice. After co-cultured with osteogenic medium, the Stat3-deficient osteoblasts were found with a significant decrease in calcium deposits and the expression of osteogenic markers, and with a significant increased expression of RANKL. The impaired ossification of Stat3-deficient osteoblasts was even more pronounced with the presence of lipopolysaccharides in vitro. The most decrease in cell proliferation and migration was found in Stat3-deficient osteoblasts in response to LPS. CONCLUSIONS Loss of Stat3 in osteoblasts impaired bone healing in an inflammatory microenvironment.

Abstract
Bones can form the scaffolding of the body, support the organism, coordinate somatic movements, and control mineral homeostasis and hematopoiesis. The immune system plays immune supervisory, defensive, and regulatory roles in the organism, which mainly consists of immune organs (spleen, bone marrow, tonsils, lymph nodes, etc.), immune cells (granulocytes, platelets, lymphocytes, etc.), and immune molecules (immune factors, interferons, interleukins, tumor necrosis factors, etc.). Bone and the immune system have long been considered two distinct fields of study, and the bone marrow, as a shared microenvironment between the bone and the immune system, closely links the two. Osteoimmunology organically combines bone and the immune system, elucidates the role of the immune system in bone, and creatively emphasizes its interdisciplinary characteristics and the function of immune cells and factors in maintaining bone homeostasis, providing new perspectives for skeletal-related field research. In recent years, bone immunology has gradually become a hot spot in the study of bone-related diseases. As a new branch of immunology, bone immunology emphasizes that the immune system can directly or indirectly affect bones through the RANKL/RANK/OPG signaling pathway, IL family, TNF-α, TGF-β, and IFN-γ. These effects are of great significance for understanding inflammatory bone loss caused by various autoimmune or infectious diseases. In addition, as an external environment that plays an important role in immunity and bone, this study pays attention to the role of exercise-mediated bone immunity in bone reconstruction.

Whitening of brown adipose tissue inhibits osteogenic differentiation via secretion of S100A8/A9. iScience 2024; 27:108857. [PMID: 38303710 PMCID: PMC10830855 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.108857] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 11/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
The mechanism by which brown adipose tissue (BAT) regulates bone metabolism is unclear. Here, we reveal that BAT secretes S100A8/A9, a previously unidentified BAT adipokine (batokine), to impair bone formation. Brown adipocytes-specific knockout of Rheb (RhebBAD KO), the upstream activator of mTOR, causes BAT malfunction to inhibit osteogenesis. Rheb depletion induces NF-κB dependent S100A8/A9 secretion from brown adipocytes, but not from macrophages. In wild-type mice, age-related Rheb downregulation in BAT is associated with enhanced S100A8/A9 secretion. Either batokines from RhebBAD KO mice, or recombinant S100A8/A9, inhibits osteoblast differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells in vitro by targeting toll-like receptor 4 on their surfaces. Conversely, S100A8/A9 neutralization not only rescues the osteogenesis repressed in the RhebBAD KO mice, but also alleviates age-related osteoporosis in wild-type mice. Collectively, our data revealed an unexpected BAT-bone crosstalk driven by Rheb-S100A8/A9, uncovering S100A8/A9 as a promising target for the treatment, and potentially, prevention of osteoporosis.

Chem Biodivers 2024; 21:e202301383. [PMID: 38212902 DOI: 10.1002/cbdv.202301383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2023] [Revised: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
Herba Epimedii is widely used to promote bone healing, and their active ingredients are total flavonoids of Epimedium (TFE). Ras homolog gene family member A / Rho-associated protein kinase (RhoA/Rock), an important pathway regulating the cytoskeleton, has been proven to affect bone formation. However, whether TFE promotes bone healing via this pathway remains unclear. In this study, the therapeutic effects of TFE were estimated using micro-computed tomography and hematoxylin and eosin staining of pathological sections. F-actin in osteoblasts was stained to investigate the protective effects of TFE on the cytoskeleton. Its regulatory effects on the RhoA/Rock1 pathway were explored using RT-qPCR and Western blot analysis. Besides, flow cytometry, alkaline phosphatase and nodule calcification staining were performed to evaluate the effects on osteogenesis. The bone healing in rats was improved, the cytoskeletal damage in osteoblasts was reduced, the RhoA/Rock1 pathway was downregulated, and osteogenesis was enhanced after TFE treatment. Thus, TFE can promote bone formation at least partially by regulating the expression of key genes and proteins in the cytoskeleton. The findings of this study provided evidence for clinical applications and would contribute to a better understanding of Epimedium's mechanisms in treating bone defects.

Ulmus macrocarpa Hance trunk bark extracts inhibit RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and prevent ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis in mice. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 319:117285. [PMID: 37839769 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117285] [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: 07/30/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Ulmus macrocarpa Hance (UmH) bark has been traditionally utilized for medicinal purposes. The bark extract of this plant has diverse health benefits, and its potential role in enhancing bone health is of distinct interest, particularly when considering the substantial health and economic implications of bone-related pathologies, such as osteoporosis. Despite the compelling theoretical implications of UmH bark in fortifying bone health, no definitive evidence at the in vivo level is currently available, thus highlighting the innovative and as-yet-unexplored potential of this field of study. AIM OF THE STUDY Primarily, our study aims to conduct a meticulous analysis of the disparity in the concentration of active compounds in the UmH root bark (Umrb) and trunk bark (Umtb) extracts and confirm UmH bark's efficacy in enhancing bone health in vivo, illuminating the cellular mechanisms involved. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Umrb and Umtb extracts were subjected to component analysis using high-performance liquid chromatography and then assessed for their inhibitory effects on osteoclast differentiation through the TRAP assay. An ovariectomized (OVX) mouse model replicates postmenopausal conditions commonly associated with osteoporosis. Micro-CT was used to analyze bone structure parameters, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and staining were used to assess bone formation markers and osteoclast activity. Furthermore, this study investigated the impact of the extract on the expression of pivotal proteins and genes involved in bone formation and resorption using mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs). RESULTS The findings of our study reveal a significant discrepancy in the concentration of active constituents between Umrb and Umtb, establishing Umtb as a superior source for promoting bone health. I addition, a standardized pilot-scale procedure was conducted for credibility. The bone health benefits of Umtb were verified using an OVX model. This validation involved the assessment of various parameters, including BMD, BV/TV, and BS/TV, using micro-CT imaging. Additionally, the activation of osteoblasts was evaluated by Umtb by measuring specific factors such as ALP, OCN, OPG in blood samples and through IHC staining. In the same investigations, diminished levels of osteoclast differentiation factors, such as TRAP, NFATc1, were also observed. The observed patterns exhibited consistency in vitro BMM investigations. CONCLUSIONS Through verification at both in vitro levels using BMMs and in vivo levels using the OVX-induced mouse model, our research demonstrates that Umtb is a more effective means of improving bone health in comparison to Umrb. These findings pave the way for developing health-functional foods or botanical drugs targeting osteoporosis and other bone-related disorders and enhance the prospects for future research extensions, including clinical studies, in extract applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dysregulated inflammation and osteoblast differentiation are implicated in osteoporosis. Exploring the activity of catalpol in inflammation and osteoblast differentiation deepens the understanding of osteoporosis pathogenesis. METHODS LPS was used to treated hFOB1.19 cells to induce inflammation and repress osteoblast differentiation. FOB1.19 cells were induced in osteoblast differentiation medium and treated with LPS and catalpol. Cell viability was assessed using CCK-8. ALP and Alizarin red S staining were conducted for analyzing osteoblast differentiation. The levels of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 were examined by ELISA. The methylation of TRAF6 promoter was examined through MS-PCR. The binding of miR-124-3p to DNMT3b and DNMT3b to TRAF6 promoter was determined with dual luciferase reporter and ChIP assays. RESULTS LPS enhanced secretion of inflammatory cytokines and suppressed osteoblast differentiation. MiR-124-3p and TRAF6 were upregulated and DNMT3b was downregulated in LPS-induced hFOB1.19 cells. Catalpol protected hFOB1.19 cells against LPS via inhibiting inflammation and promoting osteoblast differentiation. MiR-124-3p targeted DNMT3b, and its overexpression abrogated catalpol-mediated protection in LPS-treated hFOB1.19 cells. In addition, DNMT3b methylated TRAF6 promoter to restrain its expression. Catalpol exerted protective effects through suppression of the miR-124-3p/DNMT3b/TRAF6 axis in hFOB1.19 cells. CONCLUSION Catalpol antagonizes LPS-mediated inflammation and suppressive osteoblast differentiation via controlling the miR-124-3p/DNMT3b/TRAF6 axis.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is characterized by reduced bone mass, decreased strength, and enhanced bone fragility fracture risk. Activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) plays a role in cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, redox balance, amino acid uptake, and glycolipid metabolism. ATF4 induces the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) into osteoblasts, increases osteoblast activity, and inhibits osteoclast formation, promoting bone formation and remodeling. In addition, ATF4 mediates the energy metabolism in osteoblasts and promotes angiogenesis. ATF4 is also involved in the mediation of adipogenesis. ATF4 can selectively accumulate in osteoblasts. ATF4 can directly interact with RUNT-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) and up-regulate the expression of osteocalcin (OCN) and osterix (Osx). Several upstream factors, such as Wnt/β-catenin and BMP2/Smad signaling pathways, have been involved in ATF4-mediated osteoblast differentiation. ATF4 promotes osteoclastogenesis by mediating the receptor activator of nuclear factor κ-B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL) signaling. Several agents, such as parathyroid (PTH), melatonin, and natural compounds, have been reported to regulate ATF4 expression and mediate bone metabolism. In this review, we comprehensively discuss the biological activities of ATF4 in maintaining bone homeostasis and inhibiting OP development. ATF4 has become a therapeutic target for OP treatment.

Choppa VSR, Liu G, Tompkins YH, Kim WK. Altered Osteogenic Differentiation in Mesenchymal Stem Cells Isolated from Compact Bone of Chicken Treated with Varying Doses of Lipopolysaccharides. Biomolecules 2023; 13:1626. [PMID: 38002308 PMCID: PMC10669906 DOI: 10.3390/biom13111626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Persistent inflammation biologically alters signaling molecules and ultimately affects osteogenic differentiation, including in modern-day broilers with unique physiology. Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are Gram-negative bacterial components that activate cells via transmembrane receptor activation and other molecules. Previous studies have shown several pathways associated with osteogenic inductive ability, but the pathway has yet to be deciphered, and data related to its dose-dependent effect are limited. Primary mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were isolated from the bones of day-old broiler chickens, and the current study focused on the dose-dependent variation (3.125 micrograms/mL to 50 micrograms/mL) in osteogenic differentiation and the associated biomarkers in primary MSCs. The doses in this study were determined using a cell viability (MTT) assay. The study revealed that osteogenic differentiation varied with dose, and the cells exposed to higher doses of LPS were viable but lacked differentiating ability. However, this effect became transient with lower doses, and this phenotypic character was observed with differential staining methods like Alizarin Red, Von Kossa, and alkaline phosphatase. The data from this study revealed that LPS at varying doses had a varying effect on osteogenic differentiation via several pathways acting simultaneously during bone development.

Abstract
Neurogenic heterotopic ossifications (NHO) are heterotopic bones that develop in periarticular muscles after severe central nervous system (CNS) injuries. Several retrospective studies have shown that NHO prevalence is higher in patients who suffer concomitant infections. However, it is unclear whether these infections directly contribute to NHO development or reflect the immunodepression observed in patients with CNS injury. Using our mouse model of NHO induced by spinal cord injury (SCI) between vertebrae T11 to T13 , we demonstrate that lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from gram-negative bacteria exacerbate NHO development in a toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4)-dependent manner, signaling through the TIR-domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon-β (TRIF/TICAM1) adaptor rather than the myeloid differentiation primary response-88 (MYD88) adaptor. We find that T11 to T13 SCI did not significantly alter intestinal integrity nor cause intestinal bacteria translocation or endotoxemia, suggesting that NHO development is not driven by endotoxins from the gut in this model of SCI-induced NHO. Relevant to the human pathology, LPS increased expression of osteoblast markers in cultures of human fibro-adipogenic progenitors isolated from muscles surrounding NHO biopsies. In a case-control retrospective study in patients with traumatic brain injuries, infections with gram-negative Pseudomonas species were significantly associated with NHO development. Together these data suggest a functional association between gram-negative bacterial infections and NHO development and highlights infection management as a key consideration to avoid NHO development in patients. © 2023 The Authors.

Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2023; 13:1193198. [PMID: 37900318 PMCID: PMC10602934 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2023.1193198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction P. gingivalis (W83), as the keystone pathogen in chronic periodontitis, has been found to be tightly bound to systemic diseases. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) produced by P. gingivalis (W83) are thought to serve key functions in bacterial virulence and pathogenicity. This study aims to comprehend the biological functions of P. gingivalis OMVs isolated from different growth stages by comparing their physicochemical properties and pathogenicity. Methods Protein composition was analyzed via isotope-labeled relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ). Macrophage polarization and the expression of IL-6 and IL-1β were detected. The proliferation, migration, osteogenic differentiation, and IL-1b/NLRP3 expression of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) were evaluated. P. gingivalis/P. gingivalis OMVs-induced periodontal models were also constructed in Sprague Dawley rats. Results The protein composition of P. gingivalis OMVs isolated from different growth stages demonstrated obvious differences ranging from 25 KDa to 75 KDa. In the results of flow cytometry, we found that in vitro experiments the M1 subtype of macrophages was more abundant in the late-log OMVs and stationary OMVs groups which boosted the production of inflammatory cytokines more than pre-log OMVs. Compared to pre-log OMVs, late-log OMVs and stationary OMVs had more pronounced inhibitory effects on proliferation, migration, and early osteogenesis of PDLSCs. The NLRP3 inflammasome was activated to a larger extent in the stationary OMVs group. Micro-computed tomography (Micro CT), hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE), and tartrate acid phosphatase (TRAP) results showed that the periodontal damage in the stationary OMVs group was worse than that in the pre-log OMVs and late-log OMVs group, but almost equal to that in the positive control group (P. gingivalis). Discussion In general, both in vivo and in vitro experiments showed that late-log OMVs and stationary OMVs have more significant pathogenicity in periodontal disease.

Abstract
The macrolide erythromycin (ERM) inhibits excessive neutrophil accumulation and bone resorption in inflammatory tissues. We previously reported that the expression of developmental endothelial locus-1 (DEL-1), an endogenous anti-inflammatory factor induced by ERM, is involved in ERM action. Furthermore, DEL-1 is involved in the induction of bone regeneration. Therefore, in this study, we investigated whether ERM exerts an osteoblastogenic effect by upregulating DEL-1 under inflammatory conditions. We performed in vitro cell-based mechanistic analyses and used a model of Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced periodontitis to evaluate how ERM restores osteoblast activity. In vitro, P. gingivalis LPS stimulation suppressed osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. However, ERM treatment combined with P. gingivalis LPS stimulation upregulated osteoblast differentiation-related factors and Del1, indicating that osteoblast differentiation was restored. Alveolar bone resorption and gene expression were evaluated in a periodontitis model, and the results confirmed that ERM treatment increased DEL-1 expression and suppressed bone loss by increasing the expression of osteoblast-associated factors. In conclusion, ERM restores bone metabolism homeostasis in inflammatory environments possibly via the induction of DEL-1.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bone tuberculosis (TB) is the third most common types of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. It is critical to understand mycobacterial adaptive strategies within bone lesions to identify mycobacterial factors that may have role in disease pathogenesis. METHODS Whole genome microarray was used to characterize the in-vivo transcriptome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) within bone TB specimens. Mycobacterial virulent proteins were identified by bioinformatic software. An in vitro osteoblast cell line model was used to study the role of these proteins in bone TB pathogenesis. RESULTS 914 mycobacterial genes were significantly overexpressed and 1688 were repressed in bone TB specimens. Pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes demonstrated a non-replicative and hypometabolic state of M.tb, reinforcement of the mycobacterial cell wall and induction of DNA damage repair responses, suggesting possible survival strategies of M.tb within bone. Bioinformatics mining of microarray data led to identification of five virulence proteins. The genes encoding these proteins were also upregulated in the in vitro MC3T3 osteoblast cell line model of bone TB. Further, exposure of osteoblast cells to two of these virulence proteins (Rv1046c and Rv3663c) significantly inhibited osteoblast differentiation. CONCLUSION M.tb alters its transcriptome to establish infection in bone by upregulating certain virulence genes which play a key role in disturbing bone homeostasis.

Abstract
Gut microbiota is of great importance in human health, and its roles in the maintenance of skeletal homeostasis have long been recognized as the "gut-bone axis." Recent evidence has indicated intercorrelations between gut microbiota, endocrine system and bone metabolism. This review article discussed the complex interactions between gut microbiota and bone metabolism-related hormones, including sex steroids, insulin-like growth factors, 5-hydroxytryptamine, parathyroid hormone, glucagon-like peptides, peptide YY, etc. Although the underlying mechanisms still need further investigation, the regulatory effect of gut microbiota on bone health via interplaying with endocrine system may provide a new paradigm for the better management of musculoskeletal disorders.

Galangin inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation and stimulates osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells via regulation of AKT/mTOR signaling. Allergol Immunopathol (Madr) 2023; 51:133-139.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), with the abilities of multidirectional differentiation and self-renewal, have been widely used in bone repair and regeneration of inflammation-stimulated oral diseases. Galangin is a flavonoid isolated from Alpinia officinarum, exerts anti-obesity, antitumor, and anti-inflammation pharmacological effects. The roles of galangin in lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs were investigated. METHODS BMSCs were isolated from rat bone marrow and identified by flow cytometry. The isolated BMSCs were treated with 1 μg/mL lipopolysaccharides or cotreated with lipopolysaccharides and different concentrations of galangin. Cell viability and apoptosis were detected by MTT (tetrazolium component) and flow cytometry. ELISA was used to detect inflammation. Alizarin red staining was used to investigate osteogenic differentiation. RESULTS The rat BMSCs showed negative rate of CD34, and positive rate of CD29 and CD44. Lipopolysaccharides treatment reduced cell viability of BMSCs, and promoted the cell apoptosis. Incubation with galangin enhanced cell viability of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BMSCs, and suppressed the cell apoptosis. Galangin decreased levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BMSCs through down-regulation of NF-κB phosphorylation (p-NF-κB). Galangin up-regulated expression of osteo-specific proteins, collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1), osteopontin (OPN), and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), to promote the osteogenic differentiation of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BMSCs. Protein expression of p-AKT and p-mTOR in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BMSCs were increased by galangin treatment. CONCLUSION Galangin exerted an anti-inflammatory effect against lipopolysaccharide- stimulated BMSCs and promoted osteogenic differentiation through the activation of AKT/ mTOR signaling.

Abstract
Chebulinic acid (CA), a plant ellagitannin derived from Triphala, is reported to exhibit both anti-inflammatory & anti-oxidant activity apart from anti-tumour property. However, its role in inflammatory bone loss conditions was unexplored. We hypothesized that CA may prevent the bone loss under inflammatory conditions induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in 10-week-old male C57BL/6J mice. Micro-CT analysis and histomorphometric evaluations were carried out where it was found that CA significantly improved the bone micro-architectures by enhancing trabecular connectivity and strength of the bone. CA also increased the bone regeneration as examined by calcein labelling and ex-vivo mineralisation along with maintaining the bone serum markers. Further, CA ameliorated the reduction in osteoblast cell differentiation, proliferation and viability after LPS stimulation. DCFDA and Mitosox staining revealed that CA presented remarkable protective effects against LPS treatment by attenuating oxidative stress, both at cellular & mitochondrial levels. In addition, CA significantly decreased the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and down-regulated the phosphorylation of NFκB and IκBα, indicating that CA could attenuate the inflammatory impairment to primary osteoblast cells by suppressing the NFkB signalling pathway. Taken together, the protective role of CA against LPS-induced bone loss & inhibitory effect on total ROS levels hold promise as a potential novel therapeutic strategy for the inflammatory diseases in bones.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus is the major causative agent of bacterial osteomyelitis, an invasive infection of bone. Inflammation generated by the immune response to S. aureus contributes to bone damage by altering bone homeostasis. Increases in the differentiation of monocyte lineage cells into bone-resorbing osteoclasts (osteoclastogenesis) promote bone loss in the setting of osteomyelitis. In this study, we sought to define the role of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling in the pathogenesis of S. aureus osteomyelitis. We hypothesized that S. aureus-sensing TLRs 2 and 9, both of which are known to alter osteoclastogenesis in vitro, promote pathological changes to bone, including increased osteoclast abundance, bone loss, and altered callus formation during osteomyelitis. Stimulation of osteoclast precursors with S. aureus supernatant increased osteoclastogenesis in a TLR2-dependent, but not a TLR9-dependent, manner. However, in vivo studies using a posttraumatic murine model of osteomyelitis revealed that TLR2-null mice experienced similar bone damage and increased osteoclastogenesis compared to wild type (WT) mice. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that compensation between TLR2 and TLR9 contributes to osteomyelitis pathogenesis. We found that mice deficient in both TLR2 and TLR9 (Tlr2/9-/-) have decreased trabecular bone loss in response to infection compared to WT mice. However, osteoclastogenesis is comparable between WT and Tlr2/9-/- mice, suggesting that alternative mechanisms enhance osteoclastogenesis in vivo during osteomyelitis. Indeed, we discovered that osteoclast precursors intracellularly infected with S. aureus undergo significantly increased osteoclast formation, even in the absence of TLR2 and TLR9. These results suggest that TLR2 and TLR9 have context-dependent roles in the alteration of bone homeostasis during osteomyelitis.

Lipoteichoic Acid and Lipopolysaccharides Are Affected by p38 and Inflammatory Markers and Modulate Their Promoting and Inhibitory Effects on Osteogenic Differentiation. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:12633.

Abstract
Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) are cell wall components of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, respectively. Notably, oral microflora consists of a variety of bacterial species, and osteomyelitis of the jaw caused by dental infection presents with symptoms of bone resorption and osteosclerosis. However, the effects of LTA and LPS on osteogenic differentiation have not yet been clarified. We examined the effects of LTA and LPS on osteoblasts and found that LTA alone promoted alizarin red staining at low concentrations and inhibited it at high concentrations. Additionally, gene expression of osteogenic markers (ALP, OCN, and OPG) were enhanced at low concentrations of LTA. High concentrations of LPS suppressed calcification potential, and the addition of low concentrations of LTA inhibited calcification suppression, restoring the gene expression levels of suppressed bone differentiation markers (ALP, BSP, and OCN). Moreover, the suppression of p38, a signaling pathway associated with bone differentiation, had opposing effects on gene-level expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), suggesting that mixed LTA and LPS infections have opposite effects on bone differentiation through concentration gradients, involving inflammatory markers (TNF-α and IL-6) and the p38 pathway.

Zhang J, Wang F, Wu D, Zhao D. Revealing the mechanisms of Weishi Huogu I capsules used for treating osteonecrosis of the femoral head based on systems pharmacology with one mechanism validated with in vitro experiments. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 295:115354. [PMID: 35577160 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2022.115354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2022] [Revised: 04/22/2022] [Accepted: 05/04/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Weishi Huogu I (WH I) capsules, developed through traditional Chinese medicine, have been used to treat clinical osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) for decades. However, the mechanisms have not been systematically studied. AIM OF THE STUDY In this study, the mechanisms of WH I capsules used in treating ONFH were examined through a systems pharmacology strategy, and one mechanism was validated with in vitro experiments. MATERIALS AND METHODS WH I capsules compounds were identified by screening databases; then, a database of the potential active compounds was constructed after absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) evaluation. The compounds were identified through a systematic approach in which the probability of an interaction of every candidate compound with each corresponding target in the DrugBank database was calculated. Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analyses of the targets was performed with the Metascape and KEGG DISEASE databases. Then, a compound-target network (C-T) and target-pathway network (T-P) of WH I capsule components were constructed, and network characteristics and related information were used for systematically identifying WH I capsule multicomponent-target interactions. Furthermore, the effects of WH I capsule compounds identified through the systematic pharmacology analysis of the osteogenic transformation of human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) were validated in vitro. RESULTS In total, 152 potentially important compounds and 176 associated targets were identified. Twenty-two crucial GO biological process (BP) or pathways were related to ONFH, mainly in regulatory modules regulating blood circulation, modulating growth, and affecting pathological processes closely related to ONFH. Furthermore, the GO enrichment analysis showed that corydine, isorhamnetin, and bicuculline were enriched in "RUNX2 regulates osteoblast differentiation", significantly increased alkaline phosphatase activity and calcium deposition and upregulated runt-related transcription factor 2 mRNA and protein expression and osteocalcin mRNA expression in HUMSCs, suggesting that these compounds promoted the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) osteogenic transformation. CONCLUSIONS The study showed that the pharmacological mechanisms of WH I capsule attenuation of ONFH mainly involve three therapeutic modules: blood circulation, modulating growth, and regulating pathological processes. The crosstalk between GOBPs/pathways may constitute the basis of the synergistic effects of the compounds in WH I capsules in attenuating ONFH. One of the pharmacological mechanisms in the WH I capsule effect on ONFH involves enhancement of the osteogenic transformation of MSCs, as validated in experiments performed in vitro; however, more mechanisms should be validated in further studies.

Toll-like Receptor 4, Osteoblasts and Leukemogenesis; the Lesson from Acute Myeloid Leukemia. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27030735. [PMID: 35163998 PMCID: PMC8838156 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27030735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Revised: 01/13/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a pattern-recognizing receptor that can bind exogenous and endogenous ligands. It is expressed by acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells, several bone marrow stromal cells, and nonleukemic cells involved in inflammation. TLR4 can bind a wide range of endogenous ligands that are present in the bone marrow microenvironment. Furthermore, the TLR4-expressing nonleukemic bone marrow cells include various mesenchymal cells, endothelial cells, differentiated myeloid cells, and inflammatory/immunocompetent cells. Osteoblasts are important stem cell supporting cells localized to the stem cell niches, and they support the proliferation and survival of primary AML cells. These supporting effects are mediated by the bidirectional crosstalk between AML cells and supportive osteoblasts through the local cytokine network. Finally, TLR4 is also important for the defense against complicating infections in neutropenic patients, and it seems to be involved in the regulation of inflammatory and immunological reactions in patients treated with allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Thus, TLR4 has direct effects on primary AML cells, and it has indirect effects on the leukemic cells through modulation of their supporting neighboring bone marrow stromal cells (i.e., modulation of stem cell niches, regulation of angiogenesis). Furthermore, in allotransplant recipients TLR4 can modulate inflammatory and potentially antileukemic immune reactivity. The use of TLR4 targeting as an antileukemic treatment will therefore depend both on the biology of the AML cells, the biological context of the AML cells, aging effects reflected both in the AML and the stromal cells and the additional antileukemic treatment combined with HSP90 inhibition.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is characterized by osteolytic lesions caused by reduced bone formation and activated bone resorption. An important feature of myeloma is a failure of bone healing after successful treatment. In this work, clinical studies indicated a highly positive correlation between bone marrow bacteria abundance and bone lesion numbers of myeloma patients in complete remission. Coculture experiments demonstrated that marrow Escherichia coli (E. coli) promotes osteoclast differentiation and inhibits osteoblast differentiation. Mechanism studies showed that E. coli lipopolysaccharides (LPS) activated NF-κB p65 signaling and reduced phosphorylated smad1/5/9 binding ability with RUNX2 promoter, leading to decreased RUNX2 expression in osteoblast progenitors. Additionally, LPS enhanced phosphorylated NF-κB p65 binding ability with NFATc1 promoter, leading to increased NFATc1 expression in osteoclast progenitors. In vivo studies revealed E. coli contributes to osteolytic bone lesion, and elimination of E. coli infection assists healing of bone lesion in mouse model of myeloma in complete remission. These findings establish a heretofore unrecognized effect for E. coli in the genesis of myeloma bone disease and suggest a new treatment strategy.

Abstract
Background Osteolytic diseases such as osteoporosis are featured with accelerated osteoclast differentiation and strong bone resorption. Considering the complications and other limitations of current drug treatments, it is necessary to develop a safer and more reliable drug to deal with osteoclast-related diseases. Saikosaponin D (SSD) is the active extract of Bupleurum, which has anti-inflammation, anti-tumor and liver protection functions. However, the role of SSD in regulating the differentiation and function of osteoclasts is not clear. Purpose To explore whether SSD could prevent osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption induced by M-CSF and RANKL, and further evaluate the potential therapeutic properties of SSD in LPS-induced inflammatory bone loss mouse models. Methods BMMs were cultured in complete medium stimulated by RANKL with different concentrations of SSD. TRAP staining, bone resorption determination, qRT-PCR, immunofluorescence and Western blotting were performed. A mouse model of LPS-induced calvarial bone loss was established and treated with different doses of SSD. The excised calvaria bones were used for TRAP staining, micro-CT scan and histological analysis. Results SSD inhibited the formation and bone resorption of osteoclasts induced by RANKL in vitro. SSD suppressed LPS-induced inflammatory bone loss in vivo. Conclusion SSD inhibited osteoclastogenesis and LPS-induced osteolysis in mice both which served as a new potential agent for the treatment of osteoclast-related conditions.

Abstract
Chronic inflammatory diseases affect bone and teeth health tremendously. Characterized by osteolytic lesion and hyperactive osteoclastogenesis, inflammatory bone diseases are short of effective therapeutics and therefore highlight the importance of understanding pathogenesis and developing ideal medications. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a prominent role in the innate immune response of activated macrophages, as well as in the physiological signaling of osteoclasts (OCs) differentiation. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a potent ROS scavenger and a potential option for treating diseases characterized by excessive ROS generation. However, whether NAC can protect physiological bone remodeling from in vivo inflammatory conditions is largely undefined. We applied NAC treatment on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory osteolysis mice model and found that NAC could attenuate bone erosion and protect mice against LPS-induced osteolysis, due to the suppressive effect on osteoclastogenesis and stimulated effect on osteogenesis. Moreover, in vitro study demonstrated that, in OC precursors (pre-OCs), LPS-stimulated expressions of OC marker genes, such as tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5 (Acp5), cathepsin K (Ctsk), OC stimulatory transmembrane protein (Oc-stamp), dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (Dc-stamp), and nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFATc1), were all reduced because of the NAC pretreatment, thereby adversely affecting OC function including F-actin ring formation and bone resorption. Further mechanism study showed that NAC blocked LPS-induced ROS formation in both macrophages and pre-OCs, cutting off the LPS-stimulated autocrine/paracrine mechanism during inflammatory osteolysis. Our findings reveal that NAC attenuates inflammatory osteolysis via the elimination of ROS formation during LPS-stimulated osteoclastogenesis, and provide a potential therapeutic approach to treat inflammatory bone disease.

Abstract
Gut microbiota has emerged as an important regulator of bone homeostasis. In particular, the modulation of innate immunity and bone homeostasis is mediated through the interaction between microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) and the host pattern recognition receptors including Toll-like receptors and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domains. Pathogenic bacteria such as Porphyromonas gingivalis and Staphylococcus aureus tend to induce bone destruction and cause various inflammatory bone diseases including periodontal diseases, osteomyelitis, and septic arthritis. On the other hand, probiotic bacteria such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species can prevent bone loss. In addition, bacterial metabolites and various secretory molecules such as short chain fatty acids and cyclic nucleotides can also affect bone homeostasis. This review focuses on the regulation of osteoclast and osteoblast by MAMPs including cell wall components and secretory microbial molecules under in vitro and in vivo conditions. MAMPs could be used as potential molecular targets for treating bone-related diseases such as osteoporosis and periodontal diseases.

Abstract
Pyogenic spondylodiscitis can cause severe osteolytic and destructive lesions in the spine. Elderly or immunocompromised individuals are particularly susceptible to infectious diseases; specifically, infections in the spine can impair the ability of the spine to support the trunk, causing patients to be bedridden, which can also severely affect the physical condition of patients. Although treatments for osteoporosis have been well studied, treatments for bone loss secondary to infection remain to be elucidated because they have pathological manifestations that are similar to but distinct from those of osteoporosis. Recently, we encountered a patient with severely osteolytic pyogenic spondylodiscitis who was treated with romosozumab and exhibited enhanced bone formation. Romosozumab stimulated canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling, causing robust bone formation and the inhibition of bone resorption, which exceeded the bone loss secondary to infection. Bone loss due to infections involves the suppression of osteoblastogenesis by osteoblast apoptosis, which is induced by the nuclear factor-κB and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways, and osteoclastogenesis with the receptor activator of the nuclear factor-κB ligand-receptor combination and subsequent activation of the nuclear factor of activated T cells cytoplasmic 1 and c-Fos. In this study, we review and discuss the molecular mechanisms of bone loss secondary to infection and analyze the efficacy of the medications for osteoporosis, focusing on romosozumab, teriparatide, denosumab, and bisphosphonates, in treating this pathological condition.

Abstract
MiR-133b is considered to be lowly expressed in osteoporosis patients. This study aimed to probe the role and in-depth mechanism of miR-133b in modulating osteoblast biological behavior and differentiation. The differential expressions of miR-133b and GNB4 in patients with osteoporosis and healthy control were analyzed based on the GEO database. Osteoblastic differentiation of hFOB 1.19 cells was induced in the culture medium containing 10 mM β-glycerophosphate, 50 nm dexamethasone, and 100 μg/ml ascorbic acid. The level of GNB4 was detected using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. Cell viability and apoptosis were measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and flow cytometry assays, respectively. Western blot was also utilized to measure the levels of osteoblast-related proteins, including ALP, Runx2, Osterix, and OPN. GNB4 was identified and confirmed as a downstream target gene of miR-133b. The expression of miR-133b was declined while the expression of GNB4 was increased in osteoporosis patients. Importantly, up-regulation of miR-133b caused the increase of cell viability and the decrease of apoptosis, which could be blocked by overexpression of GNB4. Also, up-regulation of miR-133b promoted osteoblasts differentiation, as shown by the increase in the expression of ALP, Runx2, Osterix, and OPN. Similarly, this promoting impact resulted from miR-133b overexpression can be reversed via up-regulation of GNB4. These findings revealed that miR-133b can promote the viability and differentiation of osteoblasts by targeting GNB4, hoping to lay a feasible theoretical foundation for the clinical treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (HBMSCs) are regarded as an important resource in the field of maxillofacial bone regeneration because of their favorable properties when compared with other stem cells. Hence, finding suitable materials that could extend the application of HBMSCs has become an emerging medical topic and socioeconomic problem. In this work, polydopamine (PDA)-Ag surface was fabricated by PDA assisted photoreduction method, and the obtained PDA-Ag composite surface significantly promoted HBMSCs adhesion and proliferation. This effect is highly related to the amount of Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) present on the PDA surface. The behavior of HBMSCs on PDA-Ag surface could be spatially manipulated by controlling the distribution of Ag NPs on PDA surface (by controlling UV light). The general adhesion property allows the PDA-Ag surface to be fabricated on various substrates, making it a simple, general and controllable method for the fabrication of bioactive surface for HBMSCs.

Abstract
The mechanisms of inflammation in bone and joint tissue are complex and involve long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs), which play an important role in this process. The aim of the present study was to screen out differentially expressed genes in human osteoblasts stimulated by inflammation, and to further explore the mechanisms underlying inflammatory responses and the functional activity of human osteoblasts through bioinformatics methods and in vitro experiments. For this purpose, MG63 cells were stimulated with various concentrations of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for different periods of time to construct an optimal inflammatory model and RNA sequencing was then performed on these cells. The levels of nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1), various inflammatory factors, Nod‑like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) protein and osteogenesis‑related proteins, as well as the levels of cell apoptosis‑ and cell cycle‑related markers were measured in MG63 cells stimulated with LPS, transfected with NEAT1 overexpression plasmid and treated with bexarotene by western blot analysis, RT‑qPCR, immunofluorescence, FISH, TEM and flow cytometry. There were 427 differentially expressed genes in the LPS‑stimulated MG63 cells, in which NEAT1 was significantly downregulated. LPS upregulated the expression of inflammatory cytokines and NLRP3, inhibited the expression of autophagy‑related and osteogenesis‑related proteins, promoted apoptosis and altered the cell cycle, which was partially inhibited by NEAT1 overexpression and promoted by bexarotene. LPS stimulated inflammation in the MG63 cells and inhibited the retinoid X receptor (RXR)‑α to downregulate the expression of NEAT1 and decrease levels of autophagy, which promoted the activation of NLRP3 and the release of inflammatory factors, and impaired the functional activity of osteoblasts, thus promoting the development of inflammation.

Ibudilast Mitigates Delayed Bone Healing Caused by Lipopolysaccharide by Altering Osteoblast and Osteoclast Activity. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22031169.

Abstract
Bacterial infection in orthopedic surgery is challenging because cell wall components released after bactericidal treatment can alter osteoblast and osteoclast activity and impair fracture stability. However, the precise effects and mechanisms whereby cell wall components impair bone healing are unclear. In this study, we characterized the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on bone healing and osteoclast and osteoblast activity in vitro and in vivo and evaluated the effects of ibudilast, an antagonist of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), on LPS-induced changes. In particular, micro-computed tomography was used to reconstruct femoral morphology and analyze callus bone content in a femoral defect mouse model. In the sham-treated group, significant bone bridge and cancellous bone formation were observed after surgery, however, LPS treatment delayed bone bridge and cancellous bone formation. LPS inhibited osteogenic factor-induced MC3T3-E1 cell differentiation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels, calcium deposition, and osteopontin secretion and increased the activity of osteoclast-associated molecules, including cathepsin K and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase in vitro. Finally, ibudilast blocked the LPS-induced inhibition of osteoblast activation and activation of osteoclast in vitro and attenuated LPS-induced delayed callus bone formation in vivo. Our results provide a basis for the development of a novel strategy for the treatment of bone infection.

Cyclosporine A Promotes Bone Remodeling in LPS-Related Inflammation via Inhibiting ROS/ERK Signaling: Studies In Vivo and In Vitro. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:8836599.

Abstract
In some inflammatory diseases of bone, osteogenesis and osteoclasis are uncoupled and the balance is usually tipped resulting in bone destruction. The underlying mechanism of osteogenic dysfunction in inflammation still needs further study. This study is aimed at investigating the effects of cyclosporine A (CsA) on bone remodeling in lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) related inflammation. In vivo, an alveolar bone defect model was established using 10-week-old C57BL/6J mice. The mice were divided into phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), LPS, and LPS+CsA groups. After 3 weeks, micro-CT analysis and histomorphometric evaluation were conducted. In vitro, murine osteoblasts were treated with vehicle medium, LPS, LPS+CsA, LPS+extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) inhibitor (LPS+PD98059), and LPS+antioxidant (LPS+EUK134). Cell proliferation, osteogenic behaviors, oxidative stress, and ERK signaling were determined. By these approaches, LPS inhibited bone remodeling and promoted oxidative stress accumulation in alveolar bone defects. When animals were treated with CsA, all LPS-induced biochemical changes ameliorated with a marked protective effect. In vitro, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in mitochondria increased in LPS-treated osteoblasts, with decreased expression of osteogenic differentiation genes. The CsA, PD98059, and EUK134 presented remarkable protective effects against LPS treatment. CsA effectively enhanced bone remodeling and attenuated oxidative stress caused by LPS via inhibiting ROS/ERK signaling. Taken together, the protective effect of CsA and the inhibitory effect of ERK signaling on the maintenance of mitochondrial function and reduction of ROS levels hold promise as a potential novel therapeutic strategy for inflammatory diseases in bones.

Abstract
In bone homeostasis, bone loss due to excessive osteoclasts and inflammation or osteolysis in the bone formation process cause bone diseases such as osteoporosis. Suppressing the accompanying oxidative stress such as ROS in this process is an important treatment strategy for bone disease. Therefore, in this study, the effect of (2R)-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-butanol 2-O-β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-β-d-glucopyranoside (BAG), an arylbutanoid glycoside isolated from Betula platyphylla var. japonica was investigated in RANKL-induced RAW264.7 cells and LPS-stimulated MC3E3-T1 cells. BAG inhibited the activity of TRAP, an important marker of osteoclast differentiation and F-actin ring formation, which has osteospecific structure. In addition, the protein and gene levels were suppressed of integrin β3 and CCL4, which play an important role in the osteoclast-induced bone resorption and migration of osteoclasts, and inhibited the production of ROS and restored the expression of antioxidant enzymes such as SOD and CAT lost by RANKL. The inhibitory effect of BAG on osteoclast differentiation and ROS production appears to be due to the inhibition of MAPKs phosphorylation and NF-κβ translocation, which play a major role in osteoclast differentiation. In addition, BAG inhibited ROS generated by LPS and effectively restores the mineralization of lost osteoblasts, thereby showing the effect of bone formation in the inflammatory situation accompanying bone loss by excessive osteoclasts, suggesting its potential as a new natural product-derived bone disease treatment.

Glut1 expression is increased by p53 reduction to switch metabolism to glycolysis during osteoblast differentiation. Biochem J 2020; 477:1795-1811.

Abstract
The glycolytic system is selected for ATP synthesis not only in tumor cells but also in differentiated cells. Differentiated osteoblasts also switch the dominant metabolic pathway to aerobic glycolysis. We found that primary osteoblasts increased expressions of glycolysis-related enzymes such as Glut1, hexokinase 1 and 2, lactate dehydrogenase A and pyruvate kinase M2 during their differentiation. Osteoblast differentiation decreased expression of tumor suppressor p53, which negatively regulates Glut1 expression, and enhanced phosphorylation of AKT, which is regulated by phosphoinositol-3 kinase (PI3K). An inhibitor of PI3K enhanced p53 expression and repressed Glut1 expression. Luciferase reporter assay showed that p53 negatively regulated transcriptional activity of solute carrier family 2 member 1 gene promoter region. Inhibition of glycolysis in osteoblasts reduced ATP contents more significantly than inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation by carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazine. These results have indicated that osteoblasts increase Glut1 expression through the down-regulation of p53 to switch their metabolic pathway to glycolysis during differentiation.

Abstract
Disruption of the finely tuned osteoblast-osteoclast balance is the underlying basis of several inflammatory bone diseases, such as osteomyelitis, osteoporosis, and septic arthritis. Prolonged and unrestrained exposure to inflammatory environment results in reduction of bone mineral density by downregulating osteoblast differentiation. Earlier studies from our laboratory have identified that Anacardic acid (AA), a constituent of Cashew nut shell liquid that is used widely in traditional medicine, has potential inhibitory effect on gelatinases (MMP2 and MMP9) which are over-expressed in numerous inflammatory conditions (Omanakuttan et al. in Mol Pharmacol, 2012 and Nambiar et al. in Exp Cell Res, 2016). The study demonstrated for the first time that AA promotes osteoblast differentiation in lipopolysaccharide-treated osteosarcoma cells (MG63) by upregulating specific markers, like osteocalcin, receptor activator of NF-κB ligand, and alkaline phosphatase. Furthermore, expression of the negative regulators, such as nuclear factor-κB, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), namely MMP13, and MMP1, along with several inflammatory markers, such as Interleukin-1β and Nod-like receptor protein 3 were downregulated by AA. Taken together, AA expounds as a novel template for development of potential pharmacological therapeutics for inflammatory bone diseases.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a highly prevalent disorder characterized by the loss of bone mass and microarchitecture deterioration of bone tissue, attributed to various factors, including menopause (primary), aging (primary) and adverse effects of relevant medications (secondary). In recent decades, knowledge regarding the etiological mechanisms underpinning osteoporosis emphasizes that bone cellular homeostasis, including the maintenance of cell functions, differentiation, and the response to stress, is tightly regulated by autophagy, which is a cell survival mechanism for eliminating and recycling damaged proteins and organelles. With the important roles in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and organ function, autophagy has emerged as a potential target for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. In this review, we update and discuss the pathophysiology of autophagy in normal bone cell life cycle and metabolism. Then, the alternations of autophagy in primary and secondary osteoporosis, and the accompanied pathological process are discussed. Finally, we discuss current strategies, limitations, and challenges involved in targeting relevant pathways and propose strategies by which such hurdles may be circumvented in the future for their translation into clinical validations and applications for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of matrine on osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) as well as on bone metabolism in a rat rapid maxillary expansion (RME) model. METHODS In in vitro experiments, rat BMSCs were adopted and cell proliferation of BMSCs was measured. Meanwhile, the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs was detected by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay, Alizarin red S staining and gene expression. In vivo bone regeneration was analyzed in a rat RME model. Eighteen rats were divided into 3 groups: one group without any treatment, one group receiving only RME, and a group with RME and matrine treatment. After 2 weeks, new bone formation was detected by Micro-CT and histology. Immunohistochemical staining was used to evaluate ALP and BMP2 expression. RESULTS Overall, we found that matrine upregulated cell proliferation dose-dependently. Also, ALP activity and mineralized matrix generation were enhanced. Moreover, the osteoblast-related gene expression (ALP, bone sialoprotein and osteocalcin) by BMSCs was also promoted. Micro-CT revealed that matrine significantly promoted in vivo bone formation after 2 weeks. Concomitantly, histological examination of haematoxylin-eosin, safranin-O and toluidine blue staining confirmed these findings. In addition, the levels of ALP and BMP2 in the palatal suture tissues of rats with matrine treatment were the highest among three groups. CONCLUSION This work suggests that matrine regulates osteogenesis and enhances bone regeneration. Matrine treatment may be beneficial in improving the stability of maxillary expansion.

Cladophora glomerata enriched by biosorption with Mn(II) ions alleviates lipopolysaccharide-induced osteomyelitis-like model in MC3T3-E1, and 4B12 osteoclastogenesis. J Cell Mol Med 2020; 24:7282-7300.

Abstract
Chronic osteomyelitis, a bone infectious disease, is characterized by dysregulation of bone homeostasis, which results in excessive bone resorption. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) which is a gram‐negative endotoxin was shown to inhibit osteoblast differentiation and to induce apoptosis and osteoclasts formation in vitro. While effective therapy against bacteria‐induced bone destruction is quite limited, the investigation of potential drugs that restore down‐regulated osteoblast function remains a major goal in the prevention of bone destruction in infective bone diseases. This investigation aimed to rescue LPS‐induced MC3T3‐E1 pre‐osteoblastic cell line using the methanolic extract of Cladophora glomerata enriched with Mn(II) ions by biosorption. LPS‐induced MC3T3‐E1 cultures supplemented with C. glomerata methanolic extract were tested for expression of the main genes and microRNAs involved in the osteogenesis pathway using RT‐PCR. Moreover, osteoclastogenesis of 4B12 cells was also investigated by tartrate‐resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) assay. Treatment with algal extract significantly restored LPS‐suppressed bone mineralization and the mRNA expression levels of osteoblast‐specific genes such as runt‐related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OCN), osteopontin (OPN), miR‐27a and miR‐29b. The extract also inhibited osteoblast apoptosis, significantly restored the down‐regulated expression of Bcl‐2, and decreased the loss of MMP and reactive oxygen spices (ROS) production in MC3T3‐E1 cells induced by LPS. Furthermore, pre‐treatment with algal extract strongly decreased the activation of osteoclast in MC3T3‐E1‐4B12 coculture system stimulated by LPS. Our findings suggest that C. glomerata enriched with Mn(II) ions may be a potential raw material for the development of drug for preventing abnormal bone loss induced by LPS in bacteria‐induced bone osteomyelitis.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) inhibits ectopic bone formation induced by bone morphogenetic protein-2 and TGF-β1 through IL-1β production. J Oral Biosci 2020; 62:44-51. [PMID: 31987892 DOI: 10.1016/j.job.2020.01.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2019] [Revised: 01/15/2020] [Accepted: 01/16/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES In order to gain new insight into bacterial infection during bone-regenerative treatment using bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), we examined the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on ectopic bone formation induced by BMP-2 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 in mice. METHODS We implanted collagen sponges containing BMP-2, TGF-β1, and various amounts of LPS into mouse muscle tissues. Lump-like masses in which ectopic bones developed in mice were processed for microcomputed tomography, DNA microarray, reverse-transcription PCR, and histological analyses. RESULTS LPS treatment caused a dose-dependent reduction in the volume of ectopic bone. The total volume of ectopic bone induced by BMP-2 + TGF-β1 treatment was reduced by more than 75% in the presence of LPS. Histological analysis of the ectopic bone tissues revealed a significant reduction in total bone volume and bone volume/total volume in response to LPS. LPS treatment significantly increased the osteoblast number and osteoid volume, while the osteoclast number did not change. Since LPS induced production of TNF-α and IL-1β in lump-like masses, we implanted collagen sponges containing BMP-2 and TGF-β1 with or without LPS into TNF-α- or IL-1α/β-deficient mice. LPS treatment reduced the volume of ectopic bones in TNF-α-deficient mice but not in IL-1α/β-deficient mice. Furthermore, collagen sponges containing IL-1β reduced ectopic bone formation by BMP-2 and TGF-β1 in wild-type mice to the same extent as LPS treatment did. CONCLUSIONS LPS suppresses the ectopic bone formation induced by BMP-2 and TGF-β1 through IL-1β production.

Abstract
Osteoblasts are crucial bone-building cells that maintain bone homeostasis, whereas inflammatory stimuli can inhibit osteogenesis and activate inflammatory response. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant mRNA modification in eukaryotes and plays important roles in multiple biological processes. However, whether m6A modification affects osteoblast differentiation and inflammatory response remains unknown. To address this issue, we investigated the expression of the N6-adenosine methyltransferase METTL3 and found that it was upregulated during osteoblast differentiation and downregulated after LPS stimulation. We then knocked down METTL3 and observed decreased levels of osteogenic markers, ALP activity, and mineralized nodules, as well as Smad1/5/9 phosphorylation, in LPS-induced inflammation. METTL3 knockdown promoted the mRNA expression and stability of negative regulators of Smad signaling, Smad7 and Smurf1, the same regulatory pattern identified when the m6A-binding protein YTHDF2 was silenced. Moreover, METTL3 depletion enhanced proinflammatory cytokine expression and increased the phosphorylation of ERK, p38, JNK, and p65 in MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways. The increase in cytokine expression was inhibited after MAPK signaling inhibitor treatment. All data suggest that METTL3 knockdown inhibits osteoblast differentiation and Smad-dependent signaling by stabilizing Smad7 and Smurf1 mRNA transcripts via YTHDF2 involvement and activates the inflammatory response by regulating MAPK signaling in LPS-induced inflammation.

Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the relationship between endotoxin levels and presence of clinical signs/symptoms and radiographic features in patients with endodontic infection. Electronic searches were performed on Medline/PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Scielo, Science Direct, Web of Knowledge and Scopus databases for identification of relevant studies published up to December 2016. Grey literature was searched in Google Scholar. The selected literature was reviewed independently by two authors. Clinical studies evaluating the levels of endotoxin and the presence of clinical and radiographic features were included in this review. In order to determine the relationship between endotoxin levels and presence of clinical signs/symptoms and radiographic features meta-analyses were performed. Among the 385 articles identified in the initial search, 30 were included for full-text appraisal and only eight studies met the inclusion criteria for this systematic review. Meta-analysis revealed that individuals having teeth with tenderness to percussion (TTP) (P = 0.04; I2 57%) and previous episode of pain (PEP) (P = 0.001; I2 81%) had higher levels of endotoxin than their counterparts. Size of radiographic lesion >2 mm (P = 0.02; I2 68%) and presence of root canal exudation (EX) (P = 0.0007; I2 0%) were associated with higher levels of endotoxin. This systematic review and meta-analyses provided a strong evidence that endotoxin are related with the presence of clinical signs/symptoms and radiographic features in patients with endodontic infection.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids contribute to the increased incidence of secondary osteoporosis. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a gasotransmitter and plays an essential role in bone metabolism. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic effects of H2S on glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO). We found that dexamethasone (Dex) decreased serum H2S and two key H2S-generating enzymes in the bone marrow in vivo, cystathione b-synthase and cystathione g-lyase. Treatment of H2S-donor GYY4137 in rat significantly relieved the inhibitory effect of Dex on bone formation. Dex inhibited osteoblasts proliferation and osteogenic differentiation and decreased the expressions of the two H2S-generating enzymes. Further investigation showed that H2S was involved in Dex-mediated osteoblasts proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Mechanistically, GYY4137 promoted osteoblastogenesis by activating Wnt signaling through increased production of the Wnt ligands. In comparison, the blockage of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway significantly alleviated the effect of H2S on osteoblasts. In conclusion, the restoration of H2S levels is a potential novel therapeutic approach for GIO.

Abstract
The balance between the osteoblasts and the osteoclasts is important for the maintenance of the skeleton of the human body. The osteoclasts absorb bone after differentiated into polymorphonuclear cells by the fusion of monocytes/macrophages. We have found that 6,7,4'-Trihydroxyflavone (THF), a compound from the heartwood of Dalbergia Odorifera inhibits receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation, actin ring formation, and bone resorption in RAW 264.7 cells and bone marrow macrophage. THF significantly inhibited the c-Jun-N-terminal kinase signaling pathway without affecting extracellular signal-regulated kinase, p38, and AKT signaling. Moreover, THF inhibited the expression of c-Fos, nuclear factor-activated T cells cytoplasm 1, cathepsin K, and c-src by RANKL. We used a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced bone loss model in mice. Consequently, bone volume per tissue volume, trabecular number's reduction was recovered in THF-treated mice, and trabecular separation's augmentation was also attenuated by THF administration. In summary, THF inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation by MAPK signaling pathway and inhibits bone resorption by destroying the actin ring in mature osteoclasts. THF also prevented LPS-induced bone loss in a mice model. Thus, THF may be useful in the treatment of bone diseases associated with excessive osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption.

Abstract
AIMS Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic metabolic bone disease characterized by bone mass decrease and microstructural degradation, which may increase the risk of bone fracture and leading to high morbidity. Dipsaci Radix (DR), one typical traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which has been applied in the treatment of OP with good therapeutic effects and few side effects. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of DR to treat OP have not been fully elucidated. In this study, we aim to dissect the molecular mechanism of DR in the treatment of OP. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systems pharmacology approach was employed to comprehensively dissect the action mechanisms of DR for the treatment of OP. KEY FINDINGS 10 compounds were screened out as the potential active ingredients with excellent biological activity based on in silico ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion) prediction model. Then, 36 key protein targets of 6 compounds were identified by systems drug targeting model (SysDT) and they were involved in several biological processes, such as osteoclast differentiation, osteoblast differentiation and anti-inflammation. The target-pathway network indicated that targets are mainly mapped in multiple signaling pathways, i.e., MAPK, Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), NF-κb and Toll-like receptor pathways. The in vitro results indicated that the compounds ursolic acid and beta-sitosterol effectively inhibited the osteoclast differentiation. SIGNIFICANCE These results systematically dissected that DR exhibits the therapeutic effects of OP by the regulation of immune system-related pathways, which provide novel perspective to drug development of OP.

Abstract
The aim of this in vitro pilot study was to analyse the adhesion behaviour of human osteoblasts and fibroblasts on polyether ether ketone (PEEK) when compared with titanium surfaces in an inflammatory environment under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) incubation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of primary human osteoblasts/fibroblasts on titanium/PEEK samples were created. The gene expression of the LPS-binding protein (LBP) and the LPS receptor (toll-like receptor 4; TLR4) was measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Immunocytochemistry was used to obtain evidence for the distribution of LBP/TLR4 at the protein level of the extra-cellular-matrix-binding protein vinculin and the actin cytoskeleton. SEM images revealed that the osteoblasts and fibroblasts on the PEEK surfaces had adhesion characteristics comparable to those of titanium. The osteoblasts contracted under LPS incubation and a significantly increased LBP gene expression were detected. This was discernible at the protein level on all the materials. Whereas no increase of TLR4 was detected with regard to mRNA concentrations, a considerable increase in the antibody reaction was detected on all the materials. As is the case with titanium, the colonisation of human osteoblasts and fibroblasts on PEEK samples is possible under pro-inflammatory environmental conditions and the cellular inflammation behaviour towards PEEK is lower than that of titanium.

Abstract
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI)-the most common cause of knee arthroplasty failure-may result from Gram-positive (GP) or Gram-negative (GN) bacterial infections. The question as to whether PJI due to GP or GN bacteria can lead to different rates of aseptic loosening after reimplantation remains open. We have investigated this issue through a retrospective review of clinical records obtained from 320 patients with bacterial PJI. The results revealed that, compared with GP infections, GN infections were associated with an increased risk of aseptic loosening. In animal studies, mice underwent intrafemoral injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from GN bacteria or lipoteichoic acid (LTA) from GP bacteria. We demonstrate that LPS-but not LTA-reduced both the number of trabeculae and the bone mineral density in mice. In addition, LPS-treated mice exhibited a reduced body weight, higher serum osteocalcin levels, and an increased number of osteoclasts. LPS accelerated monocyte differentiation into osteoclast-like cells, whereas LTA did not. Finally, ibudilast-a toll-like receptor (TLR)-4 antagonist-was found to inhibit LPS-induced bone loss and osteoclast activation in mice. Taken together, our data indicate that PJI caused by GN bacteria portends a higher risk of aseptic loosening after reimplantation, mainly because of LPS-mediated effects on osteoclast differentiation.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSC) play an important role in periodontal tissue homeostasis/turnover and could be applied in cell-based periodontal regenerative therapy. Bacterial supernatants secreted from diverse periodontal bacteria induce the production of cytokines that contribute to local periodontal tissue destruction. However, little is known about the impact of whole bacterial toxins on the biological behavior of PDLSC. Therefore this study investigated whether proliferation, migration, inflammatory cytokines expression and transcriptional profile would be affected by exposure to endotoxins from bacterial species found in the subgingival plaque. PDLSC were cultured with the following bacterial supernatants: S. mutans, S. anginosus, P. intermedia, F. nucleatum, P. gingivalis and T. denticola. These supernatants were prepared in dilutions of 1:1000, 1:500, 1:300 and 1:50. Using quantitative RT-PCR, gene expression of selected inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8 and IL-1β) and cell-surface receptors (TLR2, TLR4) showed upregulation of ≈2.0- to 3.0-fold, when exposed to P. intermedia, F. nucleatum, P. gingivalis and T. denticola. However, supernatants did not affect proliferation (MTT) and migration (wound scratch assays) of PDLSC. Next generation RNA sequencing confirmed modified lineage commitment of PDLSC by stimulating chondrogenesis, adipogenesis and inhibition of osteogenesis under P. gingivalis supernatant treatment compared to control. Taken together, this study shows stem cell immunomodulatory response to different periodontal bacteria supernatant and suggests that stem cell transcriptional capacity, migration/proliferation and osteogenesis may differ in the presence of those pathogens. These results bring into question stem cell contribution to periodontal tissue regeneration and onset of inflammation.

Front Pharmacol 2019; 10:639.

Abstract
KR-12-a5 is an analogue of the antimicrobial peptide KR-12. Both of these two agents can play key effects in the treatment of infections such as osteomyelitis. Our previous work demonstrated that the osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (HBMSCs) can be enhanced by KR-12. The present study investigated if KR-12-a5 could reverse the adverse effects of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) on HBMSC osteogenesis and the involved molecular mechanisms. We observed the proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis of HBMSCs in the presence of KR-12-a5 by a cell counting kit-8 assay and flow cytometry. The osteogenic differentiation of HBMSCs was studied by alkaline phosphatase, Alizarin Red staining, and quantitative assays. Osteogenic differentiation marker levels were detected using real-time quantitative PCR analysis, which demonstrated that KR-12-a5 treatment reversed the inhibition of osteogenesis. Western blot analysis indicated that LPS-activated P38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling was inhibited and BMP/Smad pathway was reactivated after KR-12-a5 treatment under induced osteogenic conditions. Furthermore, flow cytometry results demonstrated that KR-12-a5 relieved LPS-induced oxidative stress. Combining the LPS-treated mouse model results, we proved that KR-12-a5 reversed the adverse effects of LPS on HBMSC osteogenic differentiation by influencing the BMP/Smad and P38 MAPK signaling pathways.

Peroxiredoxin II negatively regulates BMP2-induced osteoblast differentiation and bone formation via PP2A Cα-mediated Smad1/5/9 dephosphorylation. Exp Mol Med 2019; 51:1-11. [PMID: 31160554 PMCID: PMC6546700 DOI: 10.1038/s12276-019-0263-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2018] [Revised: 02/08/2019] [Accepted: 02/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Peroxiredoxin II (Prx II), an antioxidant enzyme in the Prx family, reduces oxidative stress by decreasing the intracellular ROS levels. Osteoblast differentiation is promoted by bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), which upregulates the expression of osteoblast differentiation marker genes, through Smad1/5/9 phosphorylation. We found that Prx II expression was increased by a high dose of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) but was not increased by a low dose of LPS. Prx II itself caused a decrease in the osteogenic gene expression, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and Smad1/5/9 phosphorylation induced by BMP2. In addition, BMP2-induced osteogenic gene expression and ALP activity were higher in Prx II knockout (KO) cells than they were in wild-type (WT) cells. These inhibitory effects were mediated by protein phosphatase 2A Cα (PP2A Cα), which was increased and is known to induce the dephosphorylation of Smad1/5/9. The overexpression of Prx II increased the expression of PP2A Cα, and PP2A Cα was not expressed in Prx II KO cells. Moreover, PP2A Cα reduced the level of BMP2-induced osteogenic gene expression and Smad1/5/9 phosphorylation. LPS inhibited BMP2-induced Smad1/5/9 phosphorylation and the suppressed phosphorylation was restored by the PP2A inhibitor okadaic acid (OA). Bone phenotype analyses using microcomputed tomography (μCT) revealed that the Prx II KO mice had higher levels of bone mass than the levels of the WT mice. We hypothesize that Prx II has a negative role in osteoblast differentiation through the PP2A-dependent dephosphorylation of Smad1/5/9. An antioxidant enzyme actively works to reduce bone synthesis under oxidative stress conditions in order to protect bone cells from damage and cell death. Bone is generated by cells called osteoblasts, which differentiate from stem cells. In osteoporosis and diabetes, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) within cells can disrupt osteoblast differentiation. South Korean researchers led by Eun-jung Kim at Kyungpook National University, Daegu, and Won-Gu Jang at Daegu University, Gyeongbuk, have shown that an antioxidant enzyme, peroxiredoxin II (PrxII), helps regulate bone formation under oxidative stress. The team generated PrxII-deficient mice and compared them with healthy normal mice. Under oxidative stress conditions, the mice had higher bone mass and higher expression of genes related to bone formation than the normal mice. PrxII limits osteoblast differentiation during elevated ROS by influencing associated protein activity and signalling pathways.

J Cell Biochem 2019; 120:13765-13774. [PMID: 30989725 DOI: 10.1002/jcb.28649] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2018] [Revised: 12/14/2018] [Accepted: 01/10/2019] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
It has been proved that the expression of TLR4 is associated with a reduced risk of osteoporosis (OP). One single-nucleotide polymorphism located within the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of TLR4 may "generate" binding site of miR-34a and thereby associated with risk of OP. Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporter assay were used to specify the effect of polymorphisms on the interaction between miR-34a and TLR4 gene. Western blot analysis and real-time polymerase chain reaction were used to study the expressions of miR-34a, TLR4 in different groups or cells transfected with miR-34a mimics or inhibitor. 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay was used to estimate the effect of miR-34a on the apoptosis of osteoblast. TLR4 was identified as a target of miR-34a, with negative regulatory relationship predicted. The expression levels of miR-34a was comparable with each other between CC, CA, and AA groups, and the expression levels of TLR4 was evidently lower in CC compared with GG and GC groups. Also, TLR4 level in culture osteoblast (genotyped as CC) treated with miR-34a mimics was substantially downregulated compared with scramble control, while those cells (genotyped as CC) treated with miR-34a inhibitors showed increased expression of TLR4. Additionally, the apoptosis of osteoblast genotyped as CC was decreased following transfection with miR-34a mimics, while evidently promoted subsequent to transfect with miR-34a inhibitor. The regulatory association between rs1057317 polymorphism in TLR4 3'-UTR led to an inhibitory effect on the expression of TLR4 by miR-34a, which may explain the observed association between the polymorphism and the susceptibility to OP.
