Abstract
Plastics are used all over the world. Unfortunately, due to limited biodegradation, plastics cause a significant level of environmental pollution. The smallest recognized to date are termed nanoplastics (1 nm [nm] up to 1 μm [μm]) and microplastics (1 μm-5 mm). These nano- and microplastics can enter the human body through the respiratory system via inhalation, the digestive tract via consumption of contaminated food and water, or penetration through the skin via cosmetics and clothes contact. Bioaccumulation of plastics in the human body can potentially lead to a range of health issues, including respiratory disorders like lung cancer, asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis, neurological symptoms such as fatigue and dizziness, inflammatory bowel disease and even disturbances in gut microbiota. Most studies to date have confirmed that nano- and microplastics can induce apoptosis in cells and have genotoxic and cytotoxic effects. Understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of plastics' actions may help extrapolate the risks to humans. The article provides a comprehensive review of articles in databases regarding the impact of nano- and microplastics on human health. The review included retrospective studies and case reports of people exposed to nanoplastics and microplastics. This research highlights the need for further research to fully understand the extent of the impact of plastics on human health.

Nano wear particles and the periprosthetic microenvironment in aseptic loosening induced osteolysis following joint arthroplasty. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2023; 13:1275086. [PMID: 37854857 PMCID: PMC10579613 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2023.1275086] [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: 08/09/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Joint arthroplasty is an option for end-stage septic arthritis due to joint infection after effective control of infection. However, complications such as osteolysis and aseptic loosening can arise afterwards due to wear and tear caused by high joint activity after surgery, necessitating joint revision. Some studies on tissue pathology after prosthesis implantation have identified various cell populations involved in the process. However, these studies have often overlooked the complexity of the altered periprosthetic microenvironment, especially the role of nano wear particles in the etiology of osteolysis and aseptic loosening. To address this gap, we propose the concept of the "prosthetic microenvironment". In this perspective, we first summarize the histological changes in the periprosthetic tissue from prosthetic implantation to aseptic loosening, then analyze the cellular components in the periprosthetic microenvironment post prosthetic implantation. We further elucidate the interactions among cells within periprosthetic tissues, and display the impact of wear particles on the disturbed periprosthetic microenvironments. Moreover, we explore the origins of disease states arising from imbalances in the homeostasis of the periprosthetic microenvironment. The aim of this review is to summarize the role of relevant factors in the microenvironment of the periprosthetic tissues, in an attempt to contribute to the development of innovative treatments to manage this common complication of joint replacement surgery.

BMP-2 functional polypeptides relieve osteolysis via bi-regulating bone formation and resorption coupled with macrophage polarization. NPJ Regen Med 2023; 8:6.

Abstract
Osteolysis caused by wear debris around the prosthesis is the main reason for aseptic loosening. Extending prosthetic service life is still challenging. In this study, we first synthesized a bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) functional polypeptide (BMP2pp), and evaluated the effects of BMP2pp on macrophage polarization and impaired osteogenesis caused by titanium (Ti) particles in vitro. Then, we delineated the impact of BMP2pp on bone formation and resorption in a mouse calvarial bone osteolysis model induced by Ti particles. The results showed that BMP2pp not only alleviated the Ti-induced inhibition of osteoblastic differentiation in human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hPMSCs) but also prevented Ti-induced M1 macrophage polarization and promoted M2 macrophage differentiation in mice. Conditioned medium from BMP2pp-activated macrophages increased the osteogenesis of hPMSCs. The western blot results indicated a significant decrease in the expression of NF-κB inducing kinase (NIK) and phospho-NF-κB p65 in bone marrow-derived macrophages treated with BMP2pp. Furthermore, we clarified the protective effect of BMP2pp on bone formation and the reduction in bone resorption coupled with the immunomodulatory properties of calvarial osteolysis in mice. In summary, BMP2pp ameliorated the Ti-mediated impairment in osteogenic potential of hPMSCs, suppressed the M1 polarization of macrophages by inhibiting the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, and ameliorated Ti-induced bone osteolysis. Our research suggests that BMP2pp may be a potential option for treating prosthetic loosening induced by wear debris from prostheses.

J Biol Eng 2022; 16:34. [PMID: 36482442 PMCID: PMC9733322 DOI: 10.1186/s13036-022-00314-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2022] [Accepted: 11/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cell death and inflammation are the two important triggers of wear particle-induced osteolysis. Particles, including cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and tricalcium phosphate, have been reported to induce pyroptosis in macrophages and osteocytes. Although macrophage pyroptosis facilitates osteoclastic bone resorption and osteolysis, whether osteocyte pyroptosis is involved in osteoclastic osteolysis still needs further investigation. Desferrioxamine (DFO), an FDA-approved medication and a powerful iron chelator, has been proven to reduce ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) particle-induced osteolysis. However, whether DFO can ameliorate UHMWPE particle-induced osteolysis by decreasing pyroptosis in osteocytes is unknown. RESULTS A mouse calvarial osteolysis model and the mouse osteocyte cell line MLO-Y4 was used, and we found that pyroptosis in osteocytes was significantly induced by UHMWPE particles. Furthermore, our findings uncovered a role of caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis in osteocytes in facilitating osteoclastic osteolysis induced by UHMWPE particles. In addition, we found that DFO could alleviate UHMWPE particle-induced pyroptosis in osteocytes in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSIONS We uncovered a role of caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis in osteocytes in facilitating osteoclastic osteolysis induced by UHMWPE particles. Furthermore, we found that DFO alleviated UHMWPE particle-induced osteoclastic osteolysis partly by inhibiting pyroptosis in osteocytes. Schematic of DFO reducing UHMWPE particle-induced osteolysis by inhibiting osteocytic pyroptosis. Wear particles, such as polymers, generated from prosthetic implant materials activate canonical inflammasomes and promote the cleavage and activation of caspase-1. This is followed by caspase-1-dependent IL-β maturation and GSDMD cleavage. The N-terminal fragment of GSDMD binds to phospholipids on the cell membrane and forms holes in the membrane, resulting in the release of mature IL-β and inflammatory intracellular contents. This further facilitates osteoclastic differentiation of BMMs, resulting in excessive bone resorption and ultimately leading to prosthetic osteolysis. DFO reduces UHMWPE particle-induced osteolysis by inhibiting osteocytic pyroptosis.

The Effects of Vitamin E Analogues α-Tocopherol and γ-Tocotrienol on the Human Osteocyte Response to Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Wear Particles. PROSTHESIS 2022.

Abstract
Polyethylene (PE) liners are a common bearing surface of orthopaedic prostheses. Wear particles of ultra-high molecular weight PE (UHMWPE) contribute to periprosthetic osteolysis, a major cause of aseptic loosening. Vitamin E is added to some PE liners to prevent oxidative degradation. Osteocytes, an important cell type for controlling both bone mineralisation and bone resorption, have been shown to respond UHMWPE particles by upregulating pro-osteoclastogenic and osteocytic osteolysis. Here, we examined the effects of the vitamin E analogues α-tocopherol and γ-tocotrienol alone or in the context of UHMWPE particles on human osteocyte gene expression and mineralisation behaviour. Human osteoblasts differentiated to an osteocyte-like stage were exposed to UHMWPE wear particles in the presence or absence of either α-Tocopherol or γ-Tocotrienol. Both α-Tocopherol and γ-Tocotrienol induced antioxidant-related gene expression. UHMWPE particles independently upregulated antioxidant gene expression, suggesting an effect of wear particles on oxidative stress. Both vitamin E analogues strongly induced OPG mRNA expression and γ-Tocotrienol also inhibited RANKL mRNA expression, resulting in a significantly reduced RANKL:OPG mRNA ratio (p < 0.01) overall. UHMWPE particles reversed the suppressive effect of α-Tocopherol but not of γ-Tocotrienol on this pro-osteoclastogenic index. UHMWPE particles also upregulated osteocytic-osteolysis related gene expression. Vitamin E analogues alone or in combination with UHMWPE particles also resulted in upregulation of these genes. Consistent with this, both vitamin E analogues promoted calcium release from mineralised cultures of osteocyte-like cells. Our findings suggest that while vitamin E may suppress osteocyte support of osteoclastogenesis in the presence of UHMWPE particles, the antioxidant effect may induce osteocytic osteolysis, which could promote periprosthetic osteolysis. It will be important to conduct further studies of vitamin E to determine the long-term effects of its inclusion in prosthetic materials.

Abstract
The number of total ankle replacements (TARs) performed in the United States has dramatically increased in the past 2 decades due to improvements in implant design and surgical technique. Yet as the prevalence of TAR increases, so does the likelihood of encountering complications and the need for further surgery. Patients with new-onset or persistent pain after TAR should be approached systematically to identify the cause: infection, fracture, loosening/subsidence, cysts/osteolysis, impingement, and nerve injury. The alignment of the foot and ankle must also be reassessed, as malalignment or adjacent joint pathology can contribute to pain and failure of the implant. Novel advanced imaging techniques, including single-photon emission computed tomography and metal-subtraction magnetic resonance imaging, are useful and accurate in identifying pathology. After the foot and ankle have been evaluated, surgeons can also consider contributing factors such as pathology outside the foot/ankle (eg, in the knee or the spine). Treatment of the painful TAR is dependent on etiology and may include debridement, bone grafting, open reduction and internal fixation, realignment of the foot, revision of the implants, arthrodesis, nerve repair/reconstruction/transplantation surgery, or, in rare cases, below-knee amputation.Level of Evidence: Level V, expert opinion or review.

Abstract
In vitro evaluation of bone graft materials is generally performed by analyzing the interaction with osteoblasts or osteoblast precursors. In vitro bone models comprising different cell species can give specific first information on the performance of those materials. In the present study, a 3D co-culture model was established comprising primary human osteoblasts, osteoclasts and osteocytes. Osteocytes were differentiated from osteoblasts embedded in collagen gels and were cultivated with osteoblast and osteoclasts seeded in patterns on a porous membrane. This experimental setup allowed paracrine signaling as well as separation of the different cell types for final analysis. After 7 days of co-culture, the three cell species showed their typical morphology and gene expression of typical markers like ALPL, BSPII, BLGAP, E11, PHEX, MEPE, RANKL, ACP5, CAII and CTSK. Furthermore, relevant enzyme activities for osteoblasts (ALP) and osteoclasts (TRAP, CTSK, CAII) were detected. Osteoclasts in triple culture showed downregulated TRAP (ACP5) and CAII expression and decreased TRAP activity. ALP and BSPII expression of osteoblasts in triple culture were upregulated. The expression of the osteocyte marker E11 (PDPN) was unchanged; however, osteocalcin (BGLAP) expression was considerably downregulated both in osteoblasts and osteocytes in triple cultures compared to the respective single cultures.

Abstract
Bone is composed of dense and solid cortical bone and honeycomb-like trabecular bone. Although cortical bone provides the majority of mechanical strength for a bone, there are few studies focusing on cortical bone repair or regeneration. Osteons (the Haversian system) form structural and functional units of cortical bone. In recent years, emerging evidences have shown that the osteon structure (including osteocytes, lamellae, lacunocanalicular network, and Haversian canals) plays critical roles in bone mechanics and turnover. Therefore, reconstruction of the osteon structure is crucial for cortical bone regeneration. This article provides a systematic summary of recent advances in osteons, including the structure, function, turnover, and regenerative strategies. First, the hierarchical structure of osteons is illustrated and the critical functions of osteons in bone dynamics are introduced. Next, the modeling and remodeling processes of osteons at a cellular level and the turnover of osteons in response to mechanical loading and aging are emphasized. Furthermore, several bioengineering approaches that were recently developed to recapitulate the osteon structure are highlighted. Impact statement This review provides a comprehensive summary of recent advances in osteons, especially the roles in bone formation, remodeling, and regeneration. Besides introducing the hierarchical structure and critical functions of osteons, we elucidate the modeling and remodeling of osteons at a cellular level. Specifically, we highlight the bioengineering approaches that were recently developed to mimic the hierarchical structure of osteons. We expect that this review will provide informative insights and attract increasing attentions in orthopedic community, shedding light on cortical bone regeneration in the future.

Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis is a common occurrence after total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) and poses many challenges for the foot and ankle surgeon. Osteolysis may be asymptomatic and remain benign, or it may lead to component instability and require revision or arthrodesis. In this article, we present a current and comprehensive review of osteolysis in TAA with illustrative cases. We examine the basic science principles behind the etiology of osteolysis, discuss the workup of a patient with suspected osteolysis, and present a review of the evidence of various management strategies, including grafting of cysts, revision TAA, and arthrodesis.Level of Evidence: Level V, expert opinion.

Abstract
Orthodontic-induced root resorption is a severe side effect that can lead to tooth root shortening and loss. Compressive force induces tissue stress in the cementum that covers the tooth root, which is associated with activation of bone metabolism and cementum resorption. To investigate the role of cementocytes in mechanotransduction and osteoclast differentiation, the present study established an in vitro three-dimensional (3D) model replicating cellular cementum and observed the effects of static compression on the cellular behavior of the cementocytes. Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, alkaline phosphatase staining and dentin matrix protein 1 quantification were used to evaluate the cementocyte differentiation in the 3D scaffolds. Cellular viability under static compression was evaluated using live/dead staining, and expression of mineral metabolism-related genes were analyzed via reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. The results suggested that the cementocytes maintained their phenotype and increased the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG), receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and sclerostin (SOST) in the 3D model compared with cells cultured in two dimensions. Compression force increased cell death and induced osteoclastic differentiation via the upregulation of SOST and RANKL/OPG ratio, and the downregulation of osteocalcin. The effect of compression showed a force magnitude-dependent pattern. The present study established an in vitro model of cellular cementum to study the biology of cementocytes. The results indicated that cementocytes are sensitive to mechanical loading and may serve potential roles in the metabolic regulation of minerals during orthodontic root resorption. These findings provide a novel tool to study biological processes in the field of orthodontics and expand knowledge of the biological function of cementocytes.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening subsequent to periprosthetic osteolysis is the leading cause for the revision of arthroplasty failure. The biological response of macrophages to wear debris has been well established, however, the equilibrium of bone remodeling is not only dictated by osteoclastic bone resorption but also by osteoblast-mediated bone formation. Increasing evidence shows that wear debris significantly impair osteoblastic physiology and subsequent bone formation. In the present review, we update the current state of knowledge regarding the effect of biomaterial implant wear debris on osteoblasts. The interaction of osteoblasts with osteoclasts and macrophages under wear debris challenge, and potential treatment options targeting osteoblasts are also presented.

Abstract
Immunology, already a discipline in its own right, has become a major part of many different medical fields. However, its relationship to orthopedics and trauma surgery has unfortunately, and perhaps unjustly, been developing rather slowly. Discoveries in recent years have emphasized the immense breadth of communication and connection between both systems and, importantly, the highly promising therapeutic opportunities. Recent discoveries of factors originally assigned to the immune system have now also been shown to have a significant impact on bone health and disease, which has greatly changed how we approach treatment of bone pathologies. In case of bone fracture, immune cells, especially macrophages, are present throughout the whole healing process, assure defense against pathogens and discharge a complex variety of effectors to regulate bone modeling. In rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis, the immune system contributes to the formation of the pathological and chronic conditions. Fascinatingly, prosthesis failure is not at all solely a mechanical problem of improper strain but works in conjunction with an active contribution of the immune system as a reaction to irritant debris from material wear. Unraveling conjoined mechanisms of the immune and osseous systems heralds therapeutic possibilities for ailments of both. Contemplation of the bone as merely an unchanging support pillar is outdated and obsolete. Instead it is mandatory that this highly diverse network be incorporated in our understanding of the immune system and hematopoiesis.

Abstract
Osteolysis adjacent to total hip replacement (THR) prostheses is a major cause of their eventual failure. Periprosthetic osteolysis is associated with the production of bioactive particles, produced by the wear of articulating prosthesis surfaces. Wear particles invade the periprosthetic tissue, inducing inflammation and bone resorption. Previous studies have shown that osteocytes, the most numerous cell type in mineralised bone, can respond to wear particles of multiple orthopaedic material types. Osteocytes play important roles in bone resorption, regulating bone resorption by osteoclasts and directly through osteocytic osteolysis, also known as perilacunar remodelling. In this study, we perform a histological analysis of bone biopsies obtained from cohorts of male and female patients undergoing either primary THR surgery or revision THR surgery for aseptic loosening. The osteocyte lacunae area (Ot.Lac.Ar) and percentage lacunar area/bone area (%Ot.Lac.Ar/B.Ar) were significantly larger overall in revision THR bone than bone from similar sites in primary THR. Analysis by patient gender showed that increased Ot.Lac.Ar, indicative of increased perilacunar remodelling, was restricted to female revision samples. No significant differences in osteoclast parameters were detectable between the cohorts. These findings suggest previously unrecognised gender-specific mechanisms of bone loss in orthopaedic wear particle-induced osteolysis in humans.

Abstract
Bone and osteochondral defects represent one of the major causes of disabilities in the world. Derived from traumas and degenerative pathologies, these lesions cause severe pain, joint deformity, and loss of joint motion. The standard treatments in clinical practice present several limitations. By producing functional substitutes for damaged tissues, tissue engineering has emerged as an alternative in the treatment of defects in the skeletal system. Despite promising preliminary clinical outcomes, several limitations remain. Nanotechnologies could offer new solutions to overcome those limitations, generating materials more closely mimicking the structures present in naturally occurring systems. Nanostructures comparable in size to those appearing in natural bone and cartilage have thus become relevant in skeletal tissue engineering. In particular, nanoparticles allow for a unique combination of approaches (e.g. cell labelling, scaffold modification or drug and gene delivery) inside single integrated systems for optimized tissue regeneration. In the present review, the main types of nanoparticles and the current strategies for their application to skeletal tissue engineering are described. The collection of studies herein considered confirms that advanced nanomaterials will be determinant in the design of regenerative therapeutic protocols for skeletal lesions in the future.

Abstract
Rationale: Peri-prosthetic osteolysis (PPO) is mainly induced by wear particles and represents the leading cause of implant failure and revision surgery. Previous studies have identified mitigation of wear particle-induced inflammation and bone resorption as the main approaches to treat PPO. Recently, wear particle-induced reduction of bone formation around the prosthesis was identified as a major factor in the development of PPO. Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid (AKBA), a derivative of frankincense, has been shown to play a potential role in bone metabolism. However, whether AKBA enhances bone formation in wear particle-induced osteolysis remains unknown. In this study, we examined whether AKBA attenuates titanium particle-induced osteogenic reduction. Methods: Titanium particles were used to induce osteolysis in murine calvaria, and micro-CT and histological analyses were used to evaluate the results. Mouse osteoblast cells, MC3T3-E1 were co-cultured with titanium particles to determine their effect on osteoblast formation in vitro. Results: We demonstrated that AKBA treatment significantly inhibited titanium particle-induced osteogenic inhibition by enhancing osteogenesis both in vivo and in vitro. AKBA treatment also enhanced the phosphorylation of GSK-3β, decreased the degradation of β-catenin, and increased the translocation of β-catenin from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. Taken together, these results showed that AKBA treatment attenuated titanium-induced osteogenic inhibition by activating the GSK-3β/β-catenin signaling pathway. Conclusion: These findings suggest that AKBA is a promising new target in the prevention and treatment of PPO.

Abstract
When presented with an adverse stimulus, organisms evoke an immediate, pre-programmed, non-specific innate immune response. The purpose of this reaction is to maintain the organism's biological integrity and function, mitigate or eradicate the injurious source, and re-establish tissue homeostasis. The initial stage of this protective reaction is acute inflammation, which normally reduces or terminates the offending stimulus. As the inflammatory reaction recedes, the stage of tissue repair and regeneration follows. If the above sequence of events is perturbed, reconstitution of normal biological form and function will not be achieved. Dysregulation of these activities may result in incomplete healing, fibrosis, or chronic inflammation. Our laboratory has studied the reaction to wear particles from joint replacements as a paradigm for understanding the biological pathways of acute and chronic inflammation, and potential translational treatments to reconstitute lost bone. As inflammation is the cornerstone for healing in all anatomical locations, the concepts developed have relevance to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in all organ systems. To accomplish our goal, we developed novel in vitro and in vivo models (including the murine femoral continuous intramedullary particle infusion model), translational strategies including modulation of macrophage chemotaxis and polarization, and methods to interfere with key transcription factors NFκB and MyD88. We purposefully modified MSCs to facilitate bone healing in inflammatory scenarios: by preconditioning the MSCs, and by genetically modifying MSCs to first sense NFκB activation and then overexpress the anti-inflammatory pro-regenerative cytokine IL-4. These advancements provide significant translational opportunities to enhance healing in bone and other organs.

Abstract
Introduction The use of orthopedic implants is a cause for concern for the release of its integrating metals and the systemic complications that may occur. Instrumented spine arthrodesis is the recommended treatment for many spine diseases. Different segmental fixation devices, commonly made of titanium and its alloys, are used in these surgeries. The use of this metal for spinal fusion has introduced the possibility of generating microscopic metal particles that are present in the tissues of the surrounding implants (peri-implant environment). In fact, metal debris has been found in the paraspinal soft tissues of patients with posterior lumbar instrumentation and showed to be particularly high in patients undergoing revision procedures of pseudoarthrosis. In addition, part of the metals might also dissolve (either from the released particles or directly from the implant surface) and circulate in the body fluids, accumulating (eventually) in remote organs. Material and methods A prospective study was designed with patients who were to be operated by the pathology of the lumbar spine to perform a vertebral arthrodesis composed of a titanium alloy (n=32). Two subgroups were differentiated according to the type of surgery performed: a) Posterolateral arthrodesis (N=5); b) Circumferential arthrodesis intervertebral implant of polyester-ether ketone (PEEK) (N=8) or titanium (N=19). The blood sample was taken before surgery and one year later. The samples were analyzed by mass spectrophotometry with a double focus inductive coupling plasma source (DF-ICP-MS). Results Blood titanium levels prior to surgery were similar to those in other publications (0.7449 micrograms per liter-1 (µgL-1), Standard Deviation (SD)=0.562). The average titanium concentration levels found after surgery was 2.5406 µgL-1 (SD=3,69), near 3.5-fold increase. After surgery, there was a significant mean increase in serum titanium levels of 1.7957 µgL-1 (SD=3.5765, Range=-0.57 µgL-1; 14.60 µgL-1). There is a statistically significant increment (p=0.00049) of the titanium concentration in the serum of the patients after surgery. If we analyze the patients in three groups according to the type of implants used (posterolateral, circumferential with PEEK, and circumferential with titanium), there are no differences between those who did not have an intersomatic device implanted and those in which PEEK implants were implanted, but with those in which it was titanium it was p=0.006 and p=0.018, respectively. Conclusions Patients undergoing vertebral instrumentation experience a significant increase in serum titanium levels compared to before surgery levels. The use of an intersomatic device did not show differences in titanium release with not using it when it was PEEK. There are significant differences between patients without intersomatic implants or those who had a PEEK implant with those in whom it was titanium, with a significant increase in blood titanium levels.

Osteocytes respond to particles of clinically-relevant conventional and cross-linked polyethylene and metal alloys by up-regulation of resorptive and inflammatory pathways. Acta Biomater 2019; 87:296-306. [PMID: 30690207 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.01.047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2018] [Revised: 01/18/2019] [Accepted: 01/24/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis is a major cause of implant failure in total hip replacements. Aseptic loosening caused by osteolytic lesions is associated with the production of bioactive wear particles from the articulations of implants. Wear particles infiltrate the surrounding tissue of implants, promoting inflammation as well as bone resorption. Osteocytes have been shown to both regulate physiological osteoclastogenesis and directly remodel their perilacunar bone matrix by the process of osteocytic osteolysis. We hypothesise that osteocytes respond to wear debris of orthopaedic implant materials by adopting a pro-catabolic phenotype and thus contribute to periprosthetic osteolysis through the known pathways of bone loss. Osteocyte responses to particles derived from clinically relevant materials, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), highly cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) and metal alloys, Ti6Al4V and CoCrMo, were examined in vitro in human primary osteocyte-like cultures. Osteocyte-like cells exposed to both polyethylene and metal wear particle types showed upregulated expression of catabolic markers associated with osteocytic osteolysis, MMP13, carbonic anhydrase 2 (CA2) and cathepsin K (CTSK). In addition, pro-osteoclastogenesis markers RANKL and M-CSF were induced, as well as the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-6 and TNFα, albeit with different kinetics. These findings suggest a previously unrecognised action of wear particles of multiple orthopaedic materials on osteocytes, and suggest a multifaceted role for osteocytes in periprosthetic osteolysis. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This study addresses periprosthetic osteolysis, a major clinical problem leading to aseptic loosening of orthopaedic implants. It is well accepted that wear particles of polyethylene and of other implant materials stimulate the activity of bone resorbing osteoclasts. Our recent work provided evidence that commercial particles of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) stimulated osteocytes to adopt a bone catabolic state. In this study we demonstrate for the first time that particles derived from materials in clinical use, conventional UHMWPE, highly cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), and Ti6Al4V and CoCrMo metal alloys, all stimulate human osteocyte activities of osteocyte-regulated osteoclastogenesis, osteocytic osteolysis, proinflammatory responses, osteocyte apoptosis, albeit to varying extents. This study provides further mechanistic insight into orthopaedic wear particle mediated bone disease in terms of the osteocyte, the most abundant and key controlling cell type in bone.

The Role of IL-6RA in UHMWPE Promotes Proliferation in Fibro-Like Synovial Cells. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 2018:3928915.

Abstract
UHMWPE granule could induce macrophages and inflammatory responses in interfacial tissues, which eliminated the wear debris of UHMWPE component and further induced dissolution of the surrounding bone, leading aseptic loosening. However, the mechanism of synovial cells, especially fibroblast-like synovial (FLS) cells response to UHMWPE, remains unknown. Herein we choose FLS cells as research object. Vimentin (+) CD68 (-) was identified by flow cytometry and immunofluorescent staining assay, and the cells were identified as FLS cells, which was consistent with the experimental requirements. The inhibitory evaluation showed that UHMWPE could significantly promote the proliferation and inhibit apoptosis of FLS cells in dose- and time-dependent manners and increase the levels of proinflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, PGE2, MMP2, and LOX. UHMWPE also can induce the expression of mIL-6R protein in FLS cells and further investigate the relationship between apoptosis and inflammation. Interestingly enough, when we added the interleukin-6 receptor antagonist (IL-6RA), the expression levels of proapoptosis-related proteins increased; in other words, UHMWPE-induced antiapoptosis diminished by IL-6RA (50 μg/ml). Taken together, these findings clearly demonstrated that UHMWPE promote growth in FLS cells through upregulating inflammatory factors to produce antiapoptotic effect.

Abstract
Background Implant failure remains a major obstacle to successful treatment via TJA. Periprosthetic osteolysis and aseptic loosening are considered as proof of wear debris-induced disruption of local regulatory mechanisms related to excessive bone resorption associated with osteolysis and the damage at the bone-prosthesis interface. Therefore, there is an immediate need to explore strategies for limiting and curing periprosthetic osteolysis and aseptic loosening. Methods We analyzed the in vitro cytokine production by primary mouse bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) that were exposed to ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) particles and treated with metformin at different concentrations with or without 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside to activate or inhibit AMPK. A mouse calvarial model was used to examine the in vivo effects of metformin on UHMWPE particle-induced osteolysis. Results With particles, primary mouse BMMs secreted more pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin (IL)-6. Treatment with metformin inhibited these variations and promoted the release of cytokine IL-10 with anti-inflammatory capability. In vivo, metformin reduced the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, osteoclastogenesis, and osteolysis, increasing IL-10 production. Metformin also promoted the polarization of macrophages to an anti-inflammatory phenotype in vivo via AMPK activation. Discussion A crucial point in limiting and correcting the periprosthetic osteolysis and aseptic loosening is the inhibition of inflammatory factor production and osteoclast activation induced by activated macrophages. The ability of metformin to attenuate osteolysis induced in mouse calvaria by the particles was related to a reduction in osteoclast number and polarization of macrophages to an anti-inflammatory functional phenotype. Conclusions Metformin could limit the osteolysis induced by implant debris. Therefore, we hypothesized that metformin could be a potential drug for osteolysis induced by implant debris.

Abstract
Millions of total joint replacements are performed annually worldwide, and the number is increasing every year. The overall proportion of patients achieving a successful outcome is about 80–90% in a 10–20-years time horizon postoperatively, periprosthetic osteolysis (PPOL) and aseptic loosening (AL) being the most frequent reasons for knee and hip implant failure and reoperations. The chemokine system (chemokine receptors and chemokines) is crucially involved in the inflammatory and osteolytic processes leading to PPOL/AL. Thus, the modulation of the interactions within the chemokine system may influence the extent of PPOL. Indeed, recent studies in murine models reported that (i) blocking the CCR2–CCL2 or CXCR2–CXCL2 axis or (ii) activation of the CXCR4–CXCL12 axis attenuate the osteolysis of artificial joints. Importantly, chemokines, inhibitory mutant chemokines, antagonists of chemokine receptors, or neutralizing antibodies to the chemokine system attached to or incorporated into the implant surface may influence the tissue responses and mitigate PPOL, thus increasing prosthesis longevity. This review summarizes the current state of the art of the knowledge of the chemokine system in human PPOL/AL. Furthermore, the potential for attenuating cell trafficking to the bone–implant interface and influencing tissue responses through modulation of the chemokine system is delineated. Additionally, the prospects of using immunoregenerative biomaterials (including chemokines) for the prevention of failed implants are discussed. Finally, this review highlights the need for a more sophisticated understanding of implant debris-induced changes in the chemokine system to mitigate this response effectively.

Abstract
During the process of aseptic loosening of prostheses, particulate wear debris induces a continuous inflammatory-like response resulting in the formation of a layer of fibrous peri-prosthetic tissue at the bone-prosthesis interface. The current treatment for loosening is revision surgery which is associated with a high-morbidity rate, especially in old patients. Therefore, less invasive alternatives are necessary. One approach could be to re-establish osseointegration of the prosthesis by inducing osteoblast differentiation in the peri-prosthetic tissue. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the capacity of peri-prosthetic tissue cells to differentiate into the osteoblast lineage. Cells isolated from peri-prosthetic tissue samples (n = 22)-obtained during revision surgeries-were cultured under normal and several osteogenic culture conditions. Osteogenic differentiation was assessed by measurement of Alkaline Phosphatse (ALP), mineralization of the matrix and expression of several osteogenic genes. Cells cultured in osteogenic medium showed a significant increase in ALP staining (p = 0.024), mineralization of the matrix (p < 0.001) and ALP gene expression (p = 0.014) compared to normal culture medium. Addition of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), a specific GSK3β inhibitor (GIN) or a combination of BMP and GIN to osteogenic medium could not increase ALP staining, mineralization, and ALP gene expression. In one donor, addition of GIN was required to induce mineralization of the matrix. Overall, we observed a high-inter-donor variability in response to osteogenic stimuli. In conclusion, peri-prosthetic tissue cells, cultured under osteogenic conditions, can produce alkaline phosphatase and mineralized matrix, and therefore show characteristics of differentiation into the osteoblastic lineage. © 2016 The Authors.

Amirhosseini M, Andersson G, Aspenberg P, Fahlgren A. Mechanical instability and titanium particles induce similar transcriptomic changes in a rat model for periprosthetic osteolysis and aseptic loosening. Bone Rep 2017; 7:17-25. [PMID: 28795083 PMCID: PMC5544474 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2017.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2016] [Revised: 07/24/2017] [Accepted: 07/26/2017] [Indexed: 01/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Wear debris particles released from prosthetic bearing surfaces and mechanical instability of implants are two main causes of periprosthetic osteolysis. While particle-induced loosening has been studied extensively, mechanisms through which mechanical factors lead to implant loosening have been less investigated. This study compares the transcriptional profiles associated with osteolysis in a rat model for aseptic loosening, induced by either mechanical instability or titanium particles. Rats were exposed to mechanical instability or titanium particles. After 15 min, 3, 48 or 120 h from start of the stimulation, gene expression changes in periprosthetic bone tissue was determined by microarray analysis. Microarray data were analyzed by PANTHER Gene List Analysis tool and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). Both types of osteolytic stimulation led to gene regulation in comparison to unstimulated controls after 3, 48 or 120 h. However, when mechanical instability was compared to titanium particles, no gene showed a statistically significant difference (fold change ≥ ± 1.5 and adjusted p-value ≤ 0.05) at any time point. There was a remarkable similarity in numbers and functional classification of regulated genes. Pathway analysis showed several inflammatory pathways activated by both stimuli, including Acute Phase Response signaling, IL-6 signaling and Oncostatin M signaling. Quantitative PCR confirmed the changes in expression of key genes involved in osteolysis observed by global transcriptomics. Inflammatory mediators including interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, chemokine (C-C motif) ligand (CCL)2, prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (Ptgs)2 and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) showed strong upregulation, as assessed by both microarray and qPCR. By investigating genome-wide expression changes we show that, despite the different nature of mechanical implant instability and titanium particles, osteolysis seems to be induced through similar biological and signaling pathways in this rat model for aseptic loosening. Pathways associated to the innate inflammatory response appear to be a major driver for osteolysis. Our findings implicate early restriction of inflammation to be critical to prevent or mitigate osteolysis and aseptic loosening of orthopedic implants.

Titanium particle-induced osteogenic inhibition and bone destruction are mediated by the GSK-3β/β-catenin signal pathway. Cell Death Dis 2017; 8:e2878. [PMID: 28617442 PMCID: PMC5520930 DOI: 10.1038/cddis.2017.275] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2017] [Revised: 04/17/2017] [Accepted: 05/15/2017] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
Wear debris-induced osteogenic inhibition and bone destruction are critical in the initiation of peri-prosthetic osteolysis. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this phenomenon is poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed the involvement of the GSK-3β/β-catenin signal pathway, which is important for bone formation in this pathological condition. We established a titanium (Ti) particle-stressed murine MC3T3-E1 cell culture system and calvariae osteolysis model to test the hypothesis that Ti particle-induced osteogenic inhibition and bone destruction are mediated by the GSK-3β/β-catenin signal pathway. Our findings showed that Ti particles reduced osteogenic differentiation induced by osteogenesis-related gene expression, alkaline phosphatase activity and matrix mineralization, as well as pSer9-GSK-3β expression and β-catenin signal activity. Downregulation of GSK-3β activity attenuated Ti particle-induced osteogenic inhibition, whereas the β-catenin inhibitor reversed this protective effect. Moreover, the GSK-3β/β-catenin signal pathway mediated the upregulation of RANKL and downregulation of OPG in Ti particle-stressed MC3T3-E1 cells. In addition, our in vivo results showed that Ti particles induced bone loss via regulating GSK-3β and β-catenin signals. Based on these results, we concluded that the GSK-3β/β-catenin signal pathway mediates the adverse effects of Ti particles on osteoblast differentiation and bone destruction, and can be used as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of peri-prosthetic osteolysis.

Abstract
This study was undertaken to screen periprosthetic tissues (PPTs) under specified conditions for a series of molecular components and describe them in bone remodeling processes within aseptic loosening. PPT samples were obtained from patients undergoing revision surgery of endoprostheses (n = 24) and synovial tissues from patients with OA (control) (n = 18), patients with any form of inflammatory arthritides were excluded. Tissue samples were examined via microbiology, histology (H&E, TRAP), immunohistochemistry (CD68/anti-S100a4), quantitative real-time PCR (ALP, COL1A1, cathepsin K, M-CSF, MMP13, OPG, RANK, RANKL, TNF-α, and TRAP) and an endotoxin-assay. PPT samples contained a variety of cellular components and stained positive for TRAP (56%), CD68 (100%), and S100a4 (100%). Wear debris were found in cells staining positive for CD68 and S100a4. In PPTs significantly higher ALP, COL1A1, MMP-13, RANK, RANKL, and TRAP expression were found along with a significantly higher RANKL/OPG ratio and a significantly lower OPG expression. No significant difference was observed for M-CSF, TNF-α, cathepsin K, and endotoxin levels. In conclusion we found osteogenic proteins (ALP, COL1A1), a proteolytic enzyme (MMP-13), markers for osteoclast differentiation (RANK, RANKL), and osteoclast activity (TRAP) to be increased in PPT, whereas OPG expression decreased significantly in comparison to control. We present data about a large series of molecular components in PPT and describe novel and key findings about their expression levels in regards to aseptic implant loosening. © 2016 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
Despite the success in returning people to health saving mobility and high quality of life, the over 1 million total joint replacements implanted in the US each year are expected to eventually fail after approximately 15-25 years of use, due to slow progressive subtle inflammation to implant debris compromising the bone implant interface. This local inflammatory pseudo disease state is primarily caused by implant debris interaction with innate immune cells, i.e., macrophages. This implant debris can also activate an adaptive immune reaction giving rise to the concept of implant-related metal sensitivity. However, a consensus of studies agree the dominant form of this response is due to innate reactivity by macrophages to implant debris danger signaling (danger-associated molecular pattern) eliciting cytokine-based and chemokine inflammatory responses. This review covers implant debris-induced release of the cytokines and chemokines due to activation of the innate (and the adaptive) immune system and how this leads to subsequent implant failure through loosening and osteolysis, i.e., what is known of central chemokines (e.g., IL-8, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, MIP-1, CCL9, CCL10, CCL17, and CCL22) associated with implant debris reactivity as related to the innate immune system activation/cytokine expression, e.g., danger signaling (e.g., IL-1β, IL-18, IL-33, etc.), toll-like receptor activation (e.g., IL-6, tumor necrosis factor α, etc.), bone catabolism (e.g., TRAP5b), and hypoxia responses (HIF-1α). More study is needed, however, to fully understand these interactions to effectively counter cytokine- and chemokine-based orthopedic implant-related inflammation.

Abstract
Wear debris-induced osteolysis is the leading cause of aseptic loosening, which is the most common reason for total hip arthroplasty (THA) failure in the medium and long term. Although osteocytes are the most abundant cells in bone and make direct contact with implants, the interaction between osteocytes and wear debris remains largely unknown. In the present study, we investigated the effect of TiAl6V4 alloy particles (TiPs) on osteocytes and the subsequent effects on osteoclast formation. Our study demonstrated that osteocyte-conditioned medium (CM) inhibited osteoclast differentiation from bone marrow monocytes (BMMs) to osteoclasts. However, TiPs attenuated this inhibitory effect. The expression of several osteoclastogenesis-associated factors, including receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL), osteoprotegerin (OPG), nitric oxide (NO) and interferon-beta (IFN-β), was examined, and we found that TiPs markedly decreased the expression of IFN-β, but not the other factors. In an osteoclastogenesis assay, our results suggested that the downregulation of IFN-β mediated the stimulatory effect of TiPs on osteoclastogenesis. Additional evidence suggested that TiPs decreased the expression of IFN-β in osteocytes via macroautophagy (hereinafter referred to as "autophagy"). Moreover, inhibiting autophagy with Atg5 siRNA prevented the increase in osteoclastogenesis induced by TiPs. Collectively, these results suggested a possible mechanism underlying wear debris-induced osteolysis. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE For the first time, our study demonstrated that Ti-alloy particles attenuated the inhibitory effect of osteocytes-conditioned medium on osteoclast formation. With an osteoclastogenesis assay, we found that the downregulation of IFN-β in osteocytes mediated the promoting effect of TiPs on osteoclast formation. Furthermore, our results suggested that TiPs-induced autophagy mediated the downregulation of IFN-β in osteocytes. Inhibition of autophagy recovered the expression of IFN-β and ameliorated the promoting effect of TiPs on osteoclast formation. Collectively, these findings suggest a possible mechanism underlying wear debris-induced osteolysis and identified autophagy inhibition in osteocytes as a potential therapeutic approach for wear debris induced osteolysis.

Abstract
The enzyme 1α-hydroxylase (gene CYP27B1) catalyzes the synthesis of 1,25(OH)2D in both renal and bone cells. While renal 1α-hydroxylase is tightly regulated by hormones and 1,25(OH)2D itself, the regulation of 1α-hydroxylase in bone cells is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate in a primary human osteoblast culture whether parathyroid hormone (PTH), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), calcitonin, calcium, phosphate, or MEPE affect mRNA levels of CYP27B1. Our results show that primary human osteoblasts in the presence of high calcium concentrations increase their CYP27B1 mRNA levels by 1.3-fold. CYP27B1 mRNA levels were not affected by PTH1-34, rhFGF23, calcitonin, phosphate, and rhMEPE. Our results suggest that the regulation of bone 1α-hydroxylase is different from renal 1α-hydroxylase. High calcium concentrations in bone may result in an increased local synthesis of 1,25(OH)2D leading to an enhanced matrix mineralization. In this way, the local synthesis of 1,25(OH)2D may contribute to the stimulatory effect of calcium on matrix mineralization.

Abstract
In a world where increasing joint arthroplasties are being performed on increasingly younger patients, osteolysis as the leading cause of failure after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) has gained considerable attention. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene wear-induced osteolysis is the process by which prosthetic debris mechanically released from the surface of prosthetic joints induces an immune response that favors bone catabolism, resulting in loosening of prostheses with eventual failure or fracture. The immune response initiated is innate in that it is nonspecific and self-propagating, with monocytic cells and osteoclasts being the main effectors. To date, detecting disease early enough to implement effective intervention without unwanted systemic side effects has been a major barrier. These barriers can be overcome using newer in vivo imaging techniques and modules linked with fluorescence and/or chemotherapies. We discuss the pathogenesis of osteolysis, and provide discussion of the challenges with imaging and therapeutics. We describe a positron emission tomography imaging cinnamoyl-Phe-(D)-Leu-Phe-(D)-Leu-Phe-Lys module, specific to macrophages, which holds promise in early detection of disease and localization of treatment. Further research and increased collaboration among therapeutic and three-dimensional imaging researchers are essential in realizing a solution to clinical osteolysis in TJA.

Abstract
Osteocytes are essential regulators of bone homeostasis. However, they are difficult to study due to their location within the bone mineralised matrix. Although several techniques have been published for the isolation of osteocytes from mouse bone, no such technique has been described for human osteocytes. We have therefore developed a protocol for the isolation of osteocytes from human trabecular bone samples acquired during surgery. The cells were digested from the bone matrix by sequential collagenase and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) digestions and the cells from later digests displayed characteristic dendritic osteocyte morphology when cultured ex vivo. Furthermore, the cells expressed characteristic osteocyte marker genes, such as E11, dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP1), SOST, matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein (MEPE) and phosphate regulating endopeptidase homologue, X-linked (PHEX). In addition, genes associated with osteocyte perilacunar remodelling, including matrix metallopeptidase-13 (MMP13), cathepsin K (CTSK) and carbonic anhydrase 2 (CAR2) were expressed. The cells also responded to parathyroid hormone (PTH) by downregulating SOST mRNA expression and to 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25D) by upregulating fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) mRNA expression. Therefore, the cells behave in a similar manner to osteocytes in vivo. These cells represent an important tool in enhancing current knowledge in human osteocyte biology.

Abstract
Wear-debris-induced periprosthetic osteolysis (PIO) is a common clinical condition following total joint arthroplasty, which can cause implant instability and failure. The host response to wear debris promotes bone resorption and impairs bone formation. We previously demonstrated that icariin suppressed wear-debris-induced osteoclastogenesis and attenuated particle-induced osteolysis in vivo. Whether icariin promotes bone formation in a wear-debris-induced osteolytic site remains unclear. Here, we demonstrated that icariin significantly attenuated titanium-particle inhibition of osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Additionally, icariin increased bone mass and decreased bone loss in titanium-particle-induced osteolytic sites. Mechanistically, icariin inhibited decreased β-catenin stability induced by titanium particles in vivo and in vitro. To confirm icariin mediated its bone-protective effects via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, we demonstrated that ICG-001, a selective Wnt/β-catenin inhibitor, attenuated the effects of icariin on MSC mineralization in vitro and bone formation in vivo. Therefore, icariin could induce osteogenic differentiation of MSCs and promote new bone formation at a titanium-particle-induced osteolytic site via activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. These results further support the protective effects of icariin on particle-induced bone loss and provide novel mechanistic insights into the recognized bone-anabolic effects of icariin and an evidence-based rationale for its use in PIO treatment.

Acta Biomater 2016; 33:242-51. [PMID: 26796208 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2016.01.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2015] [Revised: 01/12/2016] [Accepted: 01/16/2016] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis (PO) leading to aseptic loosening, is the most common cause of failure of total hip replacement (THR) in the mid- to long-term. Polyethylene (PE) particulates from the wear of prosthesis liners are bioactive and are implicated in the initiation and or progression of osteolysis. Evidence exists that cells of the osteoblast/osteocyte lineage are affected by PE particles and contribute to the catabolic response by promoting osteoclastic bone resorption. In this study, we hypothesised that osteocytes contribute directly to PO by removing bone from their perilacunar matrix. Osteocyte responses to ultra-high molecular weight PE (UHMWPE) particles were examined in vitro in human primary osteocyte-like cultures, in vivo in the mouse calvarial osteolysis model, and in the acetabulum of patients undergoing revision total hip replacement (THR) surgery for PO. Osteocytes exposed to UHMWPE particles showed upregulated expression of catabolic markers, MMP-13, carbonic anhydrase 2 (CA2), cathepsin K (CTSK) and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), with no effect on cell viability, as assessed by Caspase 3 activity. Consistent with this catabolic activity causing perilacunar bone loss, histological analysis of calvarial sections from mice exposed to UHMWPE revealed a significant (p<0.001) increase in osteocyte lacunar area (Lac.Ar) compared to sham-operated animals. Furthermore, acetabular biopsies from patients with PO also showed significantly (p<0.001) increased osteocyte lacunar size in trabecular bone adjacent to PE particles, compared with osteocyte lacunar size in bone from primary THR patients. Together, these findings suggest a previously unrecognised action of UHMWPE wear particles on osteocytes, which directly results in a loss of osteocyte perilacunar bone. This action may exacerbate the indirect pro-osteoclastic action of UHMWPE-affected osteocytes, previously shown to contribute to aseptic loosening of orthopaedic implants. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE This study addresses the clinical problem of periprosthetic osteolysis, bone loss in response to polyethylene wear particles derived from materials used in orthopaedic implants. Periprosthetic osteolysis has been thought to be due largely to wear particles stimulating the activity of bone resorbing osteoclasts. However, in this study we demonstrate for the first time that polyethylene particles stimulate another type of bone loss, mediated by the direct activity of bone mineral embedded osteocytes, termed osteocytic osteolysis or osteocyte perilacunar remodelling. This study provides new mechanistic insight into wear-particle mediated bone loss and represents a new paradigm for the way in which bone cells, namely osteocytes, the key controlling cell type in bone, react to biomaterials.

Abstract
Peri-prosthetic osteolysis (PPO) occurs in response to prosthetic wear particles causing an inflammatory reaction in the surrounding tissue that leads to subsequent bone loss. Semaphorin-3a (SEM3A), neuropilin-1 (NRP1) and plexin-A1 (PLEXA1) are axonal guidance molecules that have been recently implicated in regulating bone metabolism. This study investigated SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 protein and mRNA expression in human PPO tissue and polyethylene (PE) particle-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-derived osteoclasts in vitro. In addition, the effects of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) on cultured osteoclasts was assessed. In PPO tissues, a granular staining pattern of SEM3A and NRP1 was observed within large multi-nucleated cells that contained prosthetic wear particles. Immunofluorescent staining confirmed the expression of SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 in large multi-nucleated human osteoclasts in vitro. Furthermore, SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 mRNA levels progressively increased throughout osteoclast differentiation induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL), and the presence of PE particles further increased mRNA expression of all three molecules. Soluble SEM3A was detected in human osteoclast culture supernatant at days 7 and 17 of culture, as assessed by ELISA. TNFα treatment for 72h markedly decreased the mRNA expression of SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 by human osteoclasts in vitro. Our findings suggest that SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 may have important roles in PPO, and their interactions, alone or as a complex, may have a role in pathological bone loss progression. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Peri-prosthetic osteolysis occurs in response to prosthetic wear particles causing an inflammatory reaction in the surrounding tissue that leads to subsequent bone loss. The rate of hip and knee arthroplasty is increasing by at least 5% per year. However, these joint replacements have a finite lifespan, with data from the National Joint Replacement Registry (Australia) showing that the major cause of failure of total hip replacements is aseptic loosening. In aseptic loosening, wear particles liberated from prostheses are phagocytosed by macrophages, leading to release of inflammatory cytokines and up-regulation of osteoclast formation and activity. Semaphorin-3a, neuropilin-1 and plexin-A1 are axonal guidance molecules that have been recently implicated in regulating bone metabolism. This is the first report to show that these molecules may be involved in the implant failure.

Abstract
Sclerostin, the SOST gene product, is a negative regulator of bone formation and a positive regulator of bone resorption. In this study, treatment of human primary osteoblasts, including cells differentiated to an osteocyte-like stage, with 1α,25-dihydroxyvitaminD3 (1,25D) resulted in the dose-dependent increased expression of SOST mRNA. A similar effect was observed in human trabecular bone samples cultured ex vivo, and in osteocyte-like cultures of differentiated SAOS2 cells. Treatment of SAOS2 cells with 1,25D resulted in the production and secretion of sclerostin protein. In silico analysis of the human SOST gene revealed a single putative DR3-type vitamin D response element (VDRE) at position -6216 bp upstream of the transcription start site (TSS). This sequence was confirmed to have strong VDRE activity by luciferase reporter assays and electrophoretic mobility shift analysis (EMSA). Sequence substitution in the VDR/RXR half-sites abolished VDRE reporter activity and binding of nuclear proteins. A 6.3 kb fragment of the human proximal SOST promoter demonstrated responsiveness to 1,25D. The addition of the evolutionary conserved region 5 (ECR5), a known bone specific enhancer region, ahead of the 6.3 kb fragment increased basal promoter activity but did not increase 1,25D responsiveness. Site-specific mutagenesis abolished the responsiveness of the 6.3 kb promoter to 1,25D. We conclude that 1,25D is a direct regulator of human SOST gene and sclerostin protein expression, extending the pathways of control of sclerostin expression. At least some of this responsiveness is mediated by the identified classical VDRE however the nature of the transcriptional regulation by 1,25D warrants further investigation.

Preclinical models for in vitro mechanical loading of bone-derived cells. BONEKEY REPORTS 2015; 4:728.

Abstract
It is well established that bone responds to mechanical stimuli whereby physical forces are translated into chemical signals between cells, via mechanotransduction. It is difficult however to study the precise cellular and molecular responses using in vivo systems. In vitro loading models, which aim to replicate forces found within the bone microenvironment, make the underlying processes of mechanotransduction accessible to the researcher. Direct measurements in vivo and predictive modeling have been used to define these forces in normal physiological and pathological states. The types of mechanical stimuli present in the bone include vibration, fluid shear, substrate deformation and compressive loading, which can all be applied in vitro to monolayer and three-dimensional (3D) cultures. In monolayer, vibration can be readily applied to cultures via a low-magnitude, high-frequency loading rig. Fluid shear can be applied to cultures in multiwell plates via a simple rocking platform to engender gravitational fluid movement or via a pump to cells attached to a slide within a parallel-plate flow chamber, which may be micropatterned for use with osteocytes. Substrate strain can be applied via the vacuum-driven FlexCell system or via a four-point loading jig. 3D cultures better replicate the bone microenvironment and can also be subjected to the same forms of mechanical stimuli as monolayer, including vibration, fluid shear via perfusion flow, strain or compression. 3D cocultures that more closely replicate the bone microenvironment can be used to study the collective response of several cell types to loading. This technical review summarizes the methods for applying mechanical stimuli to bone cells in vitro.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening is associated with the development of wear debris-induced peri-implant osteolytic bone disease caused by an increased osteoclastic bone resorption and decreased osteoblastic bone formation. However, no effective measures for the prevention and treatment of peri-implant osteolysis currently exist. The aim of this study was to determine whether lithium chloride (LiCl), a selective inhibitor of glycogen synthetase kinase 3 beta (GSK-3β), mitigates wear debris-induced osteolysis in a murine calvarial model of osteolysis. GSK-3β is activated by titanium (Ti) particles, and implantation of Ti particles on the calvarial surface in C57BL/6 mice resulted in osteolysis caused by an increase in the number of osteoclasts and a decrease in the number of osteoblasts. Mice implanted with Ti particles were gavage-fed LiCl (50 or 200 mg kg(-1)d(-1)), 6 days per week for 2 weeks. The LiCl treatment significantly inhibited GSK-3β activity and increased β-catenin and axin-2 expression in a dose-dependent manner, dramatically mitigating the Ti particle-induced suppression of osteoblast numbers and the expression of bone formation markers. Finally, we demonstrated that inhibition of GSK-3β suppresses osteoclast differentiation and reduces the severity of Ti particle-induced osteolysis. The results of this study indicate that Ti particle-induced osteolysis is partly dependent on GSK-3β and, therefore, the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. This suggests that selective inhibitors of GSK-3β such as LiCl may help prevent and treat wear debris-induced osteolysis.

Abstract
The study aimed to determine the effects of parthenolide (PAR) on bone volume (BV) and bone surface resorption as assessed by live-animal microcomputed tomography (μCT) and possible osteocyte death as indicated by empty lacunae histologically in polyethylene (PE) particle-induced calvarial osteolysis in mice. Baseline μCT scans were conducted 7 days preimplantation of 2 × 10(8) PE particles/mL over the calvariae (day 0). PAR at 1 mg/kg/day was subcutaneously injected on days 0, 4, 7, and 10. At day 14, BV and surface resorption was analyzed with μCT. Calvarial tissue was processed for histomorphometric osteocyte evaluation. Serum was analyzed for type-1 carboxy-terminal collagen crosslinks (CTX-1) and osteoclast associated receptor (OSCAR) levels by ELISA. PE significantly decreased BV (p = 0.0368), increased surface bone resorption area (p = 0.0022), and increased the percentage of empty lacunae (p = 0.0043). Interestingly, PAR significantly reduced the resorption surface area (p = 0.0022) and the percentage of empty osteocyte lacunae (p = 0.0087) in the PE-calvariae, but it did not affect BV, serum CTX-1 or OSCAR levels. The ability of PAR to inhibit PE-induced surface bone erosion may better reflect the in vivo situation, where bone resorption occurs on the surface at the bone-implant interface and may also be related to the role of osteocytes in this pathology.

Abstract
The field of osteoimmunology has emerged in response to the range of evidences demonstrating the close interrelationship between the immune system and bone metabolism. This is pertinent to immune-mediated diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and periodontal disease, where there are chronic inflammation and local bone erosion. Periprosthetic osteolysis is another example of chronic inflammation with associated osteolysis. This may also involve immune mediation when occurring in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Similarities in the regulation and mechanisms of bone loss are likely to be related to the inflammatory cytokines expressed in these diseases. This review highlights the role of immune-related factors influencing bone loss particularly in diseases of chronic inflammation where there is associated localized bone loss. The importance of the balance of the RANKL-RANK-OPG axis is discussed as well as the more recently appreciated role that receptors and adaptor proteins involved in the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) signaling pathway play. Although animal models are briefly discussed, the focus of this review is on the expression of ITAM associated molecules in relation to inflammation induced localized bone loss in RA, chronic periodontitis, and periprosthetic osteolysis, with an emphasis on the soluble and membrane bound factor osteoclast-associated receptor (OSCAR).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the immune modulatory properties of human mesenchymal stromal cells obtained from bone marrow (BM-MSCs), fat (ASCs), and cord blood (CB-MSCs) in the presence of a hydroxyapatite and tricalcium-phosphate (HA/TCP) biomaterial as a scaffold for MSC delivery. In resting conditions, a short-term culture with HA/TCP did not modulate the anti-apoptotic and suppressive features of the various MSC types toward T, B, and NK cells; in addition, when primed with inflammatory cytokines, MSCs similarly increased their suppressive capacities in the presence or absence of HA/TCP. The long-term culture of BM-MSCs with HA/TCP induced an osteoblast-like phenotype with upregulation of OSTERIX and OSTEOCALCIN, similar to what was obtained with dexamethasone and, to a higher extent, with bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP-4) treatment. MSC-derived osteoblasts did not trigger immune cell activation, but were less efficient than undifferentiated MSCs in inhibiting stimulated T and NK cells. Interestingly, their suppressive machinery included not only the activation of indoleamine-2,3 dioxygenase (IDO), which plays a central role in T-cell inhibition, but also cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) that was not significantly involved in the immune modulatory effect of human undifferentiated MSCs. Since COX-2 is significantly involved in bone healing, its induction by HA/TCP could also contribute to the therapeutic activity of MSCs for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Mechanical loading, a potent stimulator of bone formation, is governed by osteocyte regulation of osteoblasts. We developed a three-dimensional (3D) in vitro co-culture system to investigate the effect of loading on osteocyte-osteoblast interactions. MLO-Y4 cells were embedded in type I collagen gels and MC3T3-E1(14) or MG63 cells layered on top. Ethidium homodimer staining of 3D co-cultures showed 100% osteoblasts and 86% osteocytes were viable after 7 days. Microscopy revealed osteoblasts and osteocytes maintain their respective ovoid/pyriform and dendritic morphologies in 3D co-cultures. Reverse-transcriptase quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) extracted separately from osteoblasts and osteocytes, showed that podoplanin (E11), osteocalcin, and runt-related transcription factor 2 mRNAs were expressed in both cell types. Type I collagen (Col1a1) mRNA expression was higher in osteoblasts (P < 0.001), whereas, alkaline phosphatase mRNA was higher in osteocytes (P = 0.001). Immunohistochemistry revealed osteoblasts and osteocytes express E11, type I pro-collagen, and connexin 43 proteins. In preliminary experiments to assess osteogenic responses, co-cultures were treated with human recombinant bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) or mechanical loading using a custom built loading device. BMP-2 treatment significantly increased osteoblast Col1a1 mRNA synthesis (P = 0.031) in MLO-Y4/MG63 co-cultures after 5 days treatment. A 16-well silicone plate, loaded (5 min, 10 Hz, 2.5 N) to induce 4000-4500 με cyclic compression within gels increased prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) release 0.5 h post-load in MLO-Y4 cells pre-cultured in 3D collagen gels for 48, 72 h, or 7 days. Mechanical loading of 3D co-cultures increased type I pro-collagen release 1 and 5 days later. These methods reveal a new osteocyte-osteoblast co-culture model that may be useful for investigating mechanically induced osteocyte control of osteoblast bone formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metal-on-metal prostheses undergo wear and corrosion, releasing soluble ions and wear particles into the surrounding environment. Reports described early failures of the metal-on-metal prostheses, with histologic features similar to a Type IV immune response. Mechanisms by which metal wear products and metal ion causing this reaction are not completely understood, and the effects of metal ions on osteocytes, which represent more than 95% of all the bone cells, have not been also studied. We hypothesized that soluble metal ions released from the cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) prosthesis may have cytotoxic effect on osteocytes. METHODS MLO-Y4 osteocytes were treated with various metal ion solutions for 24 and 48 h. The effect of ion treatment on cytotoxicity was assessed by WST-1 reagents and cell death ELISA. Morphological changes were analyzed by a phase-contrast microscope or fluorescent microscope using Hoechst 33342 and propidium iodine staining. RESULTS Cr and Mo ions did not cause cell death under 0.50 mM, highest concentration studied, whereas Co and Ni ions had significant cytotoxic effect on MLO-Y4 cells at concentrations grater than 0.10 mM and at 0.50 mM, respectively, in a dose-dependent manner. According to the ELISA data, osteocytes treated with Co ions were more susceptible to necrotic than apoptotic cell death, while Ni ions caused osteocyte apoptosis. The morphological assays show that cells treated with Co and Ni ions at high concentration were fewer in number and rounded. In addition, fluorescent images showed a marked reduction in live cells and an increase in dead osteocytes treated with Co and Ni ions at high concentration. CONCLUSIONS Metal ions released from metal-on-metal bearing surfaces have potentially cytotoxic effects on MLO-Y4 osteocytes, in vitro.

Abstract
The metabolism of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25D) to active 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D) by endogenous expression of 25D 1-α hydroxylase (CYP27B1) in bone cells appears to have functional effects in both osteoclasts and osteoblasts. To examine relationships between CYP27B1 expression in bone and its potential function in vivo, we examined the expression of vitamin D metabolism genes (CYP27B1, CYP24A1, VDR) in human trabecular bone samples and compared them by linear regression analysis with the expression of osteoclast (TRAP, CA2, CATK, NFATC1), osteoblast (TNAP, COL1A1, OCN, MEPE, BRIL), osteocyte (DMP1, SOST, PHEX, MEPE, FGF23)-related gene markers, genes associated with osteoblast/osteocyte control of osteoclastogenesis (RANKL, M-CSF, OPG, IL-8, TWEAK) and transcription factors (NFATC1, RUNX2, OSX, MSX2, HIF1A). This revealed multiple significant gene expression relationships between CYP27B1 and the transcription factors RUNX2, NFATC1, consistent with the coordinated expression of this gene by both osteoblast and osteoclast-lineage cells, and with MSX2 and the hypoxia-inducible transcription factor, HIF1A. CYP27B1 expression associated mainly with gene markers of bone resorption. VDR mRNA expression was also associated with resorption-related genes. Against expectations, CYP27B1 expression did not associate with bone expressed genes known to be 1,25D responsive, such as OCN, RANKL and DMP1. The major implication of these relationships in gene expression is that endogenous 1,25D synthesis and the response to 1,25D in human trabecular bone is linked with coordinated functions in both the osteoclastic and osteoblastic compartments towards the control of bone remodelling. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled '16th Vitamin D Workshop'.

Abstract
The central importance of osteocytes in regulating bone homeostasis is becoming increasingly apparent. However, the study of these cells has been restricted by the relative paucity of cell line models, especially those of human origin. Therefore, we investigated the extent to which SaOS2 human osteosarcoma cells can differentiate into osteocyte-like cells. During culture under the appropriate mineralising conditions, SaOS2 cells reproducibly synthesised a bone-like mineralised matrix and temporally expressed the mature osteocyte marker genes SOST, DMP1, PHEX and MEPE and down-regulated expression of RUNX2 and COL1A1. SaOS2 cells cultured in 3D collagen gels acquired a dendritic morphology, characteristic of osteocytes, with multiple interconnecting cell processes. These findings suggest that SaOS2 cells have the capacity to differentiate into mature osteocyte-like cells under mineralising conditions. PTH treatment of SaOS2 cells resulted in strong down-regulation of SOST mRNA expression at all time points tested. Interestingly, PTH treatment resulted in the up-regulation of RANKL mRNA expression only at earlier stages of differentiation. These findings suggest that the response to PTH is dependent on the differentiation stage of the osteoblast/osteocyte. Together, our results demonstrate that SaOS2 cells can be used as a human model to investigate responses to osteotropic stimuli throughout differentiation to a mature osteocyte-like stage.

Abstract
AIM The signaling pathway OPG/RANK/RANKL is a key in maintaining the balance between the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts in order to prevent bone loss. In this study, our aim was to assess the effects of long-term nicotine exposure on plasma RANKL and OPG levels, tissue RANKL and OPG immunoreactivities, and bone mineral density (BMD) scores in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six Swiss Albino rats weighing 70 ± 10 g were divided into three groups. While the controls (n = 12) were only given normal drinking water, for low-dose nicotine (LDN) group (n = 12) 0.4 mg/kg/day; for high-dose nicotine (HDN) group (n = 12), 6.0 mg/kg/day nicotine was added to drinking water for a year. At the end of 12th month, BMD scores were measured using an X-ray absorptiometry and bone turnover was assessed by measuring plasma RANKL and OPG levels and RANKL and OPG immunoreactivities in tail vertebrae of the rats. RESULTS There was no statistically significant difference in BMD scores of lumbar spine and femoral regions of the nicotine groups in comparison to controls. Plasma OPG levels were found to be significantly higher in HDN group, in comparison to the controls and LDN groups (p = .001) unlike plasma RANKL levels. Tissue RANKL and OPG immunoreactivities decreased significantly in the LDN and HDN groups (p < .001, p < .01, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study show that nicotine is not primarily responsible for the decrease in BMD frequently seen in smokers. Measuring plasma RANKL and OPG levels did not reflect tissue immunoreactivities.

Abstract
This study investigated the hypothesis that wear particle-induced oxidative stress initiates osteolysis after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Patient radiographs were scored for osteolysis and periprosthetic tissues were immunostained and imaged to quantify polyethylene wear, inflammation, and five osteoinflammatory and oxidative stress-responsive factors. These included high mobility group protein-B1 (HMGB1), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), and nitrotyrosine (NT). The results show wear debris correlated with inflammation, 4-HNE, NT and HMGB1, whereas inflammation only correlated with NT and HMGB1. Similar to wear debris and inflammation, osteolysis correlated with HMGB1. Additionally, osteolysis correlated with COX2 and 4-HNE, but not iNOS or NT. Understanding the involvement of oxidative stress in wear-induced osteolysis will help identify diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets to prevent osteolysis after THA.
