Abstract
Iron overload negatively affects bone mass and strength. However, the impact of iron excess on osteocytes-important bone cells for mechanotransduction and remodeling-is poorly understood. Herein, we examined the effects of iron exposure on osteocytes during their maturation process. We discovered that iron overload caused apoptosis of osteocytes in early and late stages of differentiation. Notably, the expression of key proteins for iron entry was downregulated during differentiation, suggesting that mature osteocytes were less susceptible to iron toxicity due to limited iron uptake. Furthermore, iron overload also enriched a subpopulation of mature osteocytes, as indicated by increased expression of Dmp1, a gene encoding protein for bone mineralization. These iron-exposed osteocytes expressed high levels of Sost, Tnfsf11 and Fgf23 transcripts. Consistently, we demonstrated that exogenous FGF23 stimulated the formation and survival of osteoclasts, suggesting its regulatory role in bone resorption. In addition, iron overload downregulated the expression of Cx43, a gene encoding gap junction protein in the dendritic processes, and impaired YAP1 nuclear translocation in response to fluid flow in differentiated osteocytes. It can be concluded that iron overload induces cellular adaptation in differentiating osteocytes, resulting in insensitivity to mechanical stimulation and potential disruption of the balance in bone remodeling.

Osteocyte-Related Cytokines Regulate Osteoclast Formation and Bone Resorption. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21145169.

Abstract
The process of bone remodeling is the result of the regulated balance between bone cell populations, namely bone-forming osteoblasts, bone-resorbing osteoclasts, and the osteocyte, the mechanosensory cell type. Osteoclasts derived from the hematopoietic stem cell lineage are the principal cells involved in bone resorption. In osteolytic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, periodontitis, and osteoporosis, the balance is lost and changes in favor of bone resorption. Therefore, it is vital to elucidate the mechanisms of osteoclast formation and bone resorption. It has been reported that osteocytes express Receptor activator of nuclear factor κΒ ligand (RANKL), an essential factor for osteoclast formation. RANKL secreted by osteocytes is the most important factor for physiologically supported osteoclast formation in the developing skeleton and in pathological bone resorption such as experimental periodontal bone loss. TNF-α directly enhances RANKL expression in osteocytes and promotes osteoclast formation. Moreover, TNF-α enhances sclerostin expression in osteocytes, which also increases osteoclast formation. These findings suggest that osteocyte-related cytokines act directly to enhance osteoclast formation and bone resorption. In this review, we outline the most recent knowledge concerning bone resorption-related cytokines and discuss the osteocyte as the master regulator of bone resorption and effector in osteoclast formation.

Abstract
The murine macrophage cell line RAW264.7 is extensively used as a progenitor to study osteoclast (OC) differentiation. RAW264.7 is a heterogeneous cell line, containing sub-clones with different abilities to form OCs. The aim of this study was to identify characteristics within the heterogeneous RAW264.7 cells that define sub-clones with an augmented ability to form bone-resorbing OCs (H9), as well as sub-clones representing non-OCs (J8). RAW264.7 sub-clones were isolated by single cell cloning. Selection was based on TRAP/cathepsin K expression in sub-clone cultures without added RANKL. Sub-clones before and after differentiation with RANKL were assayed for multiple OC-characteristics. Sub-clone H9 cells presented a higher expression of OC-markers in cultures without added RANKL compared to the parental RAW264.7. After 6 days of RANKL stimulation, sub-clone H9 cells had equal expression levels of OC-markers with RAW264.7 and formed OCs able to demineralize hydroxyapatite. However, sub-clone H9 cells displayed rapid differentiation of OC already at Day 2 compared to Day 4 from parental RAW264.7, and when cultured on plastic and on bone they were more efficient in resorption. This rapid differentiation was likely due to high initial expression/nuclear translocation of OC master transcription factor, NFATc1. In contrast to H9, J8 cells expressed initially very low levels of OC-markers, and they did not respond to RANKL-stimulation by developing OC-characteristics/OC-marker expression. Hence, H9 is an additional clone suitable for experimental setup requiring rapid differentiation of large numbers of OCs.

Abstract
Angulated femurs are present prenatally both in CYP26B1 deficient humans with a reduced capacity to degrade retinoic acid (RA, the active metabolite of vitamin A), and mice overexpressing vascular endothelial growth factor a (Vegfa). Since excessive ingestion of vitamin A is known to induce spontaneous fractures and as the Vegfa-induced femur angulation in mice appears to be caused by intrauterine fractures, we analyzed bones from a CYP26B1 deficient human and rats with hypervitaminosis A to further explore Vegfa as a mechanistic link for the effect of vitamin A on bone. We show that bone from a human with CYP26B1 mutations displayed periosteal osteoclasts in piles within deep resorption pits, a pathognomonic sign of hypervitaminosis A. Analysis of the human angulated fetal femur revealed excessive bone formation in the marrow cavity and abundant blood vessels. Normal human endothelial cells showed disturbed cell-cell junctions and increased CYP26B1 and VEGFA expression upon RA exposure. Studies in rats showed increased plasma and tissue Vegfa concentrations and signs of bone marrow microhemorrhage on the first day of excess dietary vitamin A intake. Subsequently hypervitaminosis A rats displayed excess bone formation, fibrosis and an increased number of megakaryocytes in the bone marrow, which are known characteristics of Vegfa overexpression. This study supports the notion that the skeletal phenotype in CYP26B1 deficient human bone is caused by excess RA. Our findings suggest that an initial part of the vitamin A mechanism causing bone alterations is mediated by excess Vegfa and disturbed bone marrow microvessel integrity. Human CYP26B1 deficit and rat hypervitaminosis A phenocopy Vegf bone overexpression Hypervitaminosis A cause rapid microhemorrhage in rat bone marrow. Retinoic acid treatment disrupt cell-cell junction integrity between endothelial cells. Hypervitaminosis A have a persistent negative effect on rat bone marrow perfusion. Hypervitaminosis A rat bones resemble bones of patients with myelofibrotic disorders.

Excessive dietary intake of vitamin A reduces skull bone thickness in mice. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0176217.

Abstract
Calvarial thinning and skull bone defects have been reported in infants with hypervitaminosis A. These findings have also been described in humans, mice and zebrafish with loss-of-function mutations in the enzyme CYP26B1 that degrades retinoic acid (RA), the active metabolite of vitamin A, indicating that these effects are indeed caused by too high levels of vitamin A and that evolutionary conserved mechanisms are involved. To explore these mechanisms, we have fed young mice excessive doses of vitamin A for one week and then analyzed the skull bones using micro computed tomography, histomorphometry, histology and immunohistochemistry. In addition, we have examined the effect of RA on gene expression in osteoblasts in vitro. Compared to a standard diet, a high dietary intake of vitamin A resulted in a rapid and significant reduction in calvarial bone density and suture diastasis. The bone formation rate was almost halved. There was also increased staining of tartrate resistant acid phosphatase in osteocytes and an increased perilacunar matrix area, indicating osteocytic osteolysis. Consistent with this, RA induced genes associated with bone degradation in osteoblasts in vitro. Moreover, and in contrast to other known bone resorption stimulators, vitamin A induced osteoclastic bone resorption on the endocranial surfaces.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive malignancy of bone affecting children, adolescents and young adults. Understanding vitamin D metabolism and vitamin D regulated genes in OS is an important aspect of vitamin D/cancer paradigm, and in evaluating vitamin D as adjuvant therapy for human OS. Vitamin D treatment of 143B OS cells induced significant and novel changes in the expression of genes that regulate: (a) inflammation and immunity; (b) formation of reactive oxygen species, metabolism of cyclic nucleotides, sterols, vitamins and mineral (calcium), quantity of gap junctions and skeletogenesis; (c) bone mineral density; and (d) cell viability of skeletal cells, aggregation of bone cancer cells and exocytosis of secretory vesicles. Ingenuity pathway analysis revealed significant reduction in Runx2 target genes such as fibroblast growth factor -1, -12 (FGF1 and FGF12), bone morphogenetic factor-1 (BMP1), SWI/SNF related, matrix associated actin dependent regulator of chromatin subfamily a, member 4 (SMARCA4), Matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein (MEPE), Integrin, β4 (ITGBP4), Matrix Metalloproteinase -1, -28 (MMP1 and MMP28), and signal transducer and activator of transcription-4 (STAT4) in vitamin D treated 143B OS cells. These genes interact with the inflammation, oxidative stress and membrane vesicle biogenesis gene networks. Vitamin D not only inhibited the expression of Runx2 target genes MMP1, MMP28 and kallikrein related peptidase-7 (KLK7), but also migration and invasion of 143B OS cells. Vitamin D regulated Runx2 target genes or their products represent potential therapeutic targets and laboratory biomarkers for applications in translational oncology.

Abstract
Vitamin D and FGF23 play a major role in calcium/phosphate balance. Vitamin D may control bone resorption but the potential role of FGF23 has never been evaluated. The objective of this study was therefore to compare the effects of vitamin D and FGF23 on osteoclast differentiation and activity in human monocyte-derived osteoclasts. Human monocytes, purified from blood of healthy donors, were incubated with M-CSF and RANKL to obtain mature multinucleated osteoclasts (MNC). Experiments were carried out to assess the effects of FGF23 as compared to native vitamin D (25-D) and active vitamin D (1,25-D) on osteoclast differentiation and on bone-resorbing osteoclast activity. Additional experiments with the pan fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitor (FGFR-i) were performed. Phosphorylation Akt and Erk pathways were analyzed by Western blot analyses. Both 1,25-D and FGF23, to a lesser extent, significantly inhibited osteoclastogenesis at early stages; when adding FGFR-i, osteoclast formation was restored. Biochemical experiments showed an activation of the Akt and Erk pathways under FGF23 treatment. In contrast, in terms of activity, 1,25-D had no effect on resorption, whereas FGF23 slightly but significantly increased bone resorption; 25-D had no effects on either differentiation or on activity. These data show that 1,25-D inhibits osteoclastogenesis without regulating osteoclast-mediated bone resorption activity; FGF23 has biphasic effects on osteoclast physiology, inhibiting osteoclast formation while stimulating slightly osteoclast activity. These results may be of importance and taken into account in chronic kidney disease when therapies modulating FGF23 are available.

Abstract
During long bone development and post-natal growth, the cartilaginous model of the skeleton is progressively replaced by bone, a process known as endochondral ossification. In the primary spongiosa, osteoclasts degrade the mineralized cartilage produced by hypertrophic chondrocytes to generate cartilage trabeculae that osteoblasts embed in bone matrix. This leads to the formation of the trabecular bone network of the secondary spongiosa that will undergo continuous remodeling. Osteoclasts are specialized in mineralized tissue degradation, with the combined ability to solubilize hydroxyapatite and to degrade extracellular matrix proteins. We reported previously that osteoclasts lacking Dock5 could not degrade bone due to abnormal podosome organization and absence of sealing zone formation. Consequently, adult Dock5(-/-) mice have increased trabecular bone mass. We used Dock5(-/-) mice to further investigate the different functions of osteoclast during endochondral bone formation. We show that long bones are overall morphologically normal in developing and growing Dock5(-/-) mice. We demonstrate that Dock5(-/-) mice also have normal hypertrophic cartilage and cartilage trabecular network. Conversely, trabecular bone volume increased progressively in the secondary spongiosa of Dock5(-/-) growing mice as compared to Dock5(+/+) animals, even though their osteoclast numbers were the same. In vitro, we show that Dock5(-/-) osteoclasts do present acidic compartments at the ventral plasma membrane and produce normal amounts of active MMP9, TRAP and CtsK for matrix protein degradation but they are unable to solubilize minerals. These observations reveal that contrarily to bone resorption, the ability of osteoclasts to dissolve minerals is dispensable for the degradation of mineralized hypertrophic cartilage during endochondral bone formation.

Abstract
An excessive intake of vitamin A has been associated with an increased risk of fractures in humans. In animals, a high vitamin A intake leads to a reduction of long bone diameter and spontaneous fractures. Studies in rodents indicate that the bone thinning is due to increased periosteal bone resorption and reduced radial growth. Whether the latter is a consequence of direct effects on bone or indirect effects on appetite and general growth is unknown. In this study we therefore used pair-feeding and dynamic histomorphometry to investigate the direct effect of a high intake of vitamin A on bone formation in rats. Although there were no differences in body weight or femur length compared to controls, there was an approximately halved bone formation and mineral apposition rate at the femur diaphysis of rats fed vitamin A. To try to clarify the mechanism(s) behind this reduction, we treated primary human osteoblasts and a murine preosteoblastic cell line (MC3T3-E1) with the active metabolite of vitamin A; retinoic acid (RA), a retinoic acid receptor (RAR) antagonist (AGN194310), and a Cyp26 inhibitor (R115866) which blocks endogenous RA catabolism. We found that RA, via RARs, suppressed in vitro mineralization. This was independent of a negative effect on osteoblast proliferation. Alkaline phosphatase and bone gamma carboxyglutamate protein (Bglap, Osteocalcin) were drastically reduced in RA treated cells and RA also reduced the protein levels of Runx2 and Osterix, key transcription factors for progression to a mature osteoblast. Normal osteoblast differentiation involved up regulation of Cyp26b1, the major enzyme responsible for RA degradation, suggesting that a drop in RA signaling is required for osteogenesis analogous to what has been found for chondrogenesis. In addition, RA decreased Phex, an osteoblast/osteocyte protein necessary for mineralization. Taken together, our data indicate that vitamin A is a negative regulator of osteoblast mineralization.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are known to be important for the coupling process between bone resorption and formation. The aim of this study was to address when osteoclasts are anabolically active. Human monocytes were differentiated into mature osteoclasts by treatment with M-CSF and RANKL. Conditioned medium was collected from macrophages, pre-osteoclasts, and mature functional or non-resorbing osteopetrotic osteoclasts on either bone, plastic, decalcified bone or dentine with or without diphyllin, E64 or GM6001. Osteoclasts numbers were measured by TRACP activity. Bone resorption was evaluated by CTX-I and calcium release. The osteoblastic cell line 2T3 was treated with 50% of CM or non-CM for 12days. Bone formation was assessed by Alizarin Red extraction. CM from mature osteoclasts induced bone formation, while CM from macrophages did not. Non-resorbing osteoclasts generated from osteopetrosis patients showed little resorption, but still an induction of bone formation by osteoblasts. Mimicking the reduction in bone resorption using the V-ATPase inhibitor Diphyllin, the cysteine proteinase inhibitor E64 and the MMP-inhibitor GM6001 showed that CM from diphyllin and E64 treated osteoclasts showed reduced ability to induce bone formation compared to CM from vehicle treated osteoclasts, while CM from GM6001 treated osteoclasts equaled vehicle CM. Osteoclasts on either dentine or decalcified bone showed strongly attenuated anabolic capacities. In conclusion, we present evidence that osteoclasts, both dependent and independent of their resorptive activity, secrete factors stimulating osteoblastic bone formation.

Abstract
Chondrocytes’ hypertrophy includes metabolic changes, matrix remodelling, proliferation and apoptosis, characteristics associated with the progression of osteoarthritis. We investigated a possible association among Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX-2), SOX-9 and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23 mRNA expressions in articular chondrocytes in order to elucidate their contribution in the osteoarthritic hypertrophic cartilage. SOX-9, FGF-23, RUNX-2 and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-13 mRNA expressions were evaluated in osteoarthritic and normal chondrocytes by real-time PCR whereas MMP-13 protein expression by immunofluorescense. RUNX-2, FGF-23 and SOX-9 were down-regulated using small interfering RNA technology and transfection with liposomes. The effect of human recombinant FGF-23 (hrFGF-23) on SOX-9 and RUNX-2 expression was tested in normal chondrocytes. We found higher expression of RUNX-2 and FGF-23 and a decreased expression of SOX-9 mRNA in osteoarthritic chondrocytes compared to normal (P < 0.0001). RUNX-2 down-regulation resulted in reduced MMP-13 expression in osteoarthritic chondrocytes and inhibition of SOX-9 in increased RUNX-2 and MMP-13 mRNA expression in normal chondrocytes, whereas inhibition of FGF-23 resulted in reduced RUNX-2 mRNA expression in osteoarthritic chondrocytes (all P < 0.0001). Silencing of RUNX-2 or FGF-23 did not affect SOX-9 mRNA levels in osteoarthritic chondrocytes. Moreover simultaneous down-regulation of SOX-9 and up-regulation of FGF-23 mRNA expressions in normal chondrocytes resulted in additive up-regulation of RUNX-2 mRNA expression. Treatment of normal chondrocytes with hrFGF-23 resulted in increased RUNX-2 mRNA expression, whereas it had no effect on SOX-9 mRNA expression. We demonstrated convincing associations among RUNX-2, SOX-9 and FGF-23 in relation to MMP-13 expression in osteoarthritic chondrocytes, contributing to a better understanding of the abnormal gene expression and cartilage degeneration processes associated with osteoarthritis.

Abstract
N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP) is a marker of newly formed type I collagen. However, its role in hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia has not yet been established. Metabolic bone markers were examined in patients with oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM) and X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH), and in healthy controls. OOM and XLH patients were found to have hypophosphatemia secondary to elevated levels of serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23). OOM patients had reduced levels of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (1,25D) compared with XLH patients and healthy controls, despite attenuation of the reduction in these levels in the XLH patients secondary to active vitamin D supplementation. In contrast to patients with XLH, OOM patients showed a significant increase in serum PINP, which is suggestive of accelerated bone matrix formation. Bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) and the BAP/PINP ratio were also increased in OOM but not in XLH patients, suggesting the presence of a disturbance in bone mineralization in OOM. Long-term supplementation of active form vitamin D and inorganic phosphate (IP) may have attenuated the defect in bone mineralization in the XLH patients, resulting in the normalization of PINP, BAP, and the BAP/PINP ratio. The present results suggest that, as with BAP, PINP is an appropriate metabolic bone marker in the assessment of hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia.

Abstract
Vitamin A (retinol) is the only molecule known to induce spontaneous fractures in laboratory animals and we have identified retinol as a risk factor for fracture in humans. Since subsequent observational studies in humans and old animal data both show that high retinol intake appears to only have small effects on bone mineral density (BMD) we undertook a mechanistic study of how excess retinol reduces bone diameter while leaving BMD essentially unaffected. We fed growing rats high doses of retinol for only 1 week. Bone analysis involved antibody-based methods, histology, pQCT, biomechanics and bone compartment-specific PCR together with Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy of bone mineral. Excess dietary retinol induced weakening of bones with little apparent effect on BMD. Periosteal osteoclasts increased but unexpectedly endosteal osteoclasts disappeared and there was a reduction of osteoclastic serum markers. There was also a lack of capillary erythrocytes, endothelial cells and serum retinol transport protein in the endosteal/marrow compartment. A further indication of reduced endosteal/marrow blood flow was the increased expression of hypoxia-associated genes. Also, in contrast to the inhibitory effects in vitro, the marrow of retinol-treated rats showed increased expression of osteogenic genes. Finally, we show that hypervitaminotic bones have a higher degree of mineralization, which is in line with biomechanical data of preserved stiffness in spite of thinner bones. Together these novel findings suggest that a rapid primary effect of excess retinol on bone tissue is the impairment of endosteal/marrow blood flow leading to hypoxia and pathological endosteal mineralization.

Abstract
We examined parathyroid and skeletal function in 3-month-old mice expressing the null mutation for 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1alpha-hydroxylase [1alpha(OH)ase(-/-)] and in mice expressing the null mutation for both the 1alpha(OH)ase and the calcium-sensing receptor [Casr(-/-)1alpha(OH)ase(-/-)] genes. On a normal diet, all mice were hypocalcemic, with markedly increased parathyroid hormone (PTH), increased trabecular bone volume, increased osteoblast activity, poorly mineralized bone, enlarged and distorted cartilaginous growth plates, and marked growth retardation, especially in the compound mutants. Osteoclast numbers were reduced in the Casr(-/-)1alpha(OH)ase(-/-) mice. On a high-lactose, high-calcium, high-phosphorus "rescue" diet, serum calcium and PTH were normal in the 1alpha(OH)ase(-/-) mice but increased in the Casr(-/-)1alpha(OH)ase(-/-) mice with reduced serum phosphorus. Growth plate architecture and mineralization were improved in both mutants, but linear growth of the double mutants remained abnormal. Mineralization of bone improved in all mice, but osteoblast activity and trabecular bone volume remained elevated in the Casr(-/-)1alpha(OH)ase(-/-) mice. These studies support a role for calcium-stimulated maturation of the cartilaginous growth plate and mineralization of the growth plate and bone and calcium-stimulated CaSR-mediated effects on bone resorption. PTH-mediated bone resorption may require calcium-stimulated CaSR-mediated enhancement of osteoclastic activity. (c) 2010 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
FGF2 transgenic mice were developed in which type I collagen regulatory sequences drive the nuclear high molecular weight FGF2 isoforms in osteoblasts (TgHMW). The phenotype of TgHMW mice included dwarfism, decreased bone mineral density (BMD), osteomalacia, and decreased serum phosphate (P(i)). When TgHMW mice were fed a high P(i) diet, BMD was increased, and dwarfism was partially reversed. The TgHMW phenotype was similar to mice overexpressing FGF23. Serum FGF23 was increased in TgHMW mice. Fgf23 mRNA in bones and fibroblast growth factor receptors 1c and 3c and Klotho mRNAs in kidneys were increased in TgHMW mice, whereas the renal Na(+)/P(i) co-transporter Npt2a mRNA was decreased. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot analyses of TgHMW kidneys showed increased KLOTHO and decreased NPT2a protein. The results suggest that overexpression of HMW FGF2 increases FGF23/FGFR/KLOTHO signaling to down-regulate NPT2a, causing P(i) wasting, osteomalacia, and decreased BMD. We assessed whether HMW FGF2 expression was altered in the Hyp mouse, a mouse homolog of the human disease X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia. Fgf2 mRNA was increased in bones, and Western blots showed increased FGF2 protein in nuclear fractions from osteoblasts of Hyp mice. In addition, immunohistochemistry demonstrated co-localization of FGF23 and HMW FGF2 protein in osteoblasts and osteocytes from Hyp mice. This study reveals a novel mechanism of regulation of the FGF23-P(i) homeostatic axis.

Abstract
Resorption and remodelling of skeletal tissues is required for development and growth, mechanical adaptation, repair, and mineral homeostasis of the vertebrate skeleton. Here we review for the first time the current knowledge about resorption and remodelling of the skeleton in teleost fish, the largest and most diverse group of extant vertebrates. Teleost species are increasingly used in aquaculture and as models in biomedical skeletal research. Thus, detailed knowledge is required to establish the differences and similarities between mammalian and teleost skeletal remodelling, and between distantly related species such as zebrafish (Danio rerio) and medaka (Oryzias latipes). The cellular mechanisms of differentiation and activation of osteoclasts and the functions of teleost skeletal remodelling are described. Several characteristics, related to skeletal remodelling, distinguish teleosts from mammals. These characteristics include (a) the absence of osteocytes in most species; (b) the absence of haematopoietic bone marrow tissue; (c) the abundance of small mononucleated osteoclasts performing non-lacunar (smooth) bone resorption, in addition to or instead of multinucleated osteoclasts; and (d) a phosphorus- rather than calcium-driven mineral homeostasis (mainly affecting the postcranial dermal skeleton). Furthermore, (e) skeletal resorption is often absent from particular sites, due to sparse or lacking endochondral ossification. Based on the mode of skeletal remodelling in early ontogeny of all teleosts and in later stages of development of teleosts with acellular bone we suggest a link between acellular bone and the predominance of mononucleated osteoclasts, on the one hand, and cellular bone and multinucleated osteoclasts on the other. The evolutionary origin of skeletal remodelling is discussed and whether mononucleated osteoclasts represent an ancestral type of resorbing cells. Revealing the differentiation and activation of teleost skeletal resorbing cells, in the absence of several factors that trigger mammalian osteoclast differentiation, is a current challenge. Understanding which characters of teleost bone remodelling are derived and which characters are conserved should enhance our understanding of the process in fish and may provide insights into alternative pathways of bone remodelling in mammals.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) overexpression has been identified as a causative factor for tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) characterized by hypophosphatemia due to increased renal phosphate wasting, low 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) serum levels, and low bone density. The effects of long-lasting disturbed phosphate homeostasis on bone mineralization are still not well understood. We report on a patient with a 12-year history of TIO, treated with 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and phosphate, who finally developed hyperparathyroidism with gland hyperplasia before the tumor could be localized in the scapula and removed. During surgery a transiliac bone biopsy was obtained. FGF23 expression in the tumor cells was confirmed by in situ hybridization. Serum FGF23 levels as measured by ELISA were found to be extremely elevated before and decreased after removal of the tumor. Bone histology/histomorphometry and measurement of bone mineralization density distribution using quantitative backscattered electron imaging were performed on the bone biopsy. The data showed important surface osteoidosis and a slightly increased osteoblast but markedly decreased osteoclast number. The mineralized bone volume (-11%) and mineralized trabecular thickness (-18%) were low. The mean degree of mineralization of the bone matrix (-7%), the most frequent calcium concentration (-4.1%), and the amounts of fully mineralized bone (-40.3%) were distinctly decreased, while the heterogeneity of mineralization (+44.5%) and the areas of primary mineralization (+131.6%) were dramatically increased. We suggest that the elevated levels of FGF23 and/or low phosphate concentrations disturb the mineralization kinetics in vivo without affecting matrix mineralization of pre-existing bone packets.
