Cancer Rep (Hoboken) 2024; 7:e2114. [PMID: 38886335 PMCID: PMC11182701 DOI: 10.1002/cnr2.2114] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been reported that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can play important roles in a variety of biological processes and cancer regulatory networks, including breast cancer. AIMS This study aimed to identify a novel upregulated lncRNA in breast cancer and its associated gene using bioinformatics analysis, and then evaluate their potential roles in breast cancer. METHODS AND RESULTS Extensive in silico studies were performed using various bioinformatics databases and tools to identify a potential upregulated breast cancer-associated lncRNA and its co-expressed gene, and to predict their potential roles, functions, and interactions. The expression level of MRPS30-DT lncRNA and MRPS30 was assessed in both BC tissues and cell lines using qRT-PCR technology. MRPS30-DT lncRNA and MRPS30 were selected as target genes using bioinformatics analysis. We found that MRPS30-DT and MRPS30 were significantly overexpressed in BC tissues compared with normal tissues. Also, MRPS30 showed upregulation in all three BC cell lines compared with HDF. On the other hand, MRPS30-DT significantly increased in MDA-MB-231 compared with HDF. While the expression of MRPS30-DT was significantly dropped in the resistance cell line MCF/MX compared to HDF and MCF7. Moreover, bioinformatics analysis suggested that MRPS30-DT and MRPS30 may play a potential role in BC through their involvement in some cancer signaling pathways and processes, as well as through their interaction with TFs, genes, miRNAs, and proteins related to carcinogenesis. CONCLUSIONS Overall, our findings showed the dysregulation of MRPS30-DT lncRNA and MRPS30 may provide clues for exploring new therapeutic targets or molecular biomarkers in BC.

Abstract
Osteomyelitis, a debilitating bone infection, presents considerable clinical challenges due to its intricate etiology and limited treatment options. Despite strides in surgical and chemotherapeutic interventions, the treatment landscape for osteomyelitis remains unsatisfactory. Recent attention has focused on the role of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in the pathogenesis and progression of osteomyelitis. This review consolidates current knowledge on the involvement of distinct classes of ncRNAs, including microRNAs, long ncRNAs, and circular RNAs, in the context of osteomyelitis. Emerging evidence from various studies underscores the potential of ncRNAs in orchestrating gene expression and influencing the differentiation of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, pivotal processes in bone formation. The review initiates by elucidating the regulatory functions of ncRNAs in fundamental cellular processes such as inflammation, immune response, and bone remodeling, pivotal in osteomyelitis pathology. It delves into the intricate network of interactions between ncRNAs and their target genes, illuminating how dysregulation contributes to the establishment and persistence of osteomyelitic infections. Understanding their regulatory roles may pave the way for targeted diagnostic tools and innovative therapeutic interventions, promising a paradigm shift in the clinical approach to this challenging condition. Additionally, we delve into the promising therapeutic applications of these molecules, envisioning novel diagnostic and treatment approaches to enhance the management of this challenging bone infection.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, a prevalent bone disorder influenced by genetic and environmental elements, significantly increases the likelihood of fractures and bone weakness, greatly affecting the lives of those afflicted. Yet, the exact epigenetic processes behind the onset of osteoporosis are still unclear. Growing research indicates that epigenetic changes could act as vital mediators that connect genetic tendencies and environmental influences, thereby increasing the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures. Within these epigenetic factors, certain types of RNA, such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), have been recognized as key regulatory elements. These RNA types wield significant influence on gene expression through epigenetic regulation, directing various biological functions essential to bone metabolism. This extensive review compiles current research uncovering the complex ways in which miRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs are involved in the development of osteoporosis, especially in osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Gaining a more profound understanding of the roles these three RNA classes play in osteoporosis could reveal new diagnostic methods and treatment approaches for this incapacitating condition. In conclusion, this review delves into the complex domain of epigenetic regulation via non-coding RNA in osteoporosis. It sheds light on the complex interactions and mechanisms involving miRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs within osteoblasts and osteoclasts, offering an in-depth understanding of the less explored aspects of osteoporosis pathogenesis. These insights not only reveal the complexity of the disease but also offer significant potential for developing new diagnostic methods and targeted treatments. Therefore, this review marks a crucial step in deciphering the elusive complexities of osteoporosis, leading towards improved patient care and enhanced quality of life.

Abstract
Epigenetic modification pertains to the alteration of genetic-expression, which could be transferred to the next generations, without any alteration in the fundamental DNA sequence. Epigenetic modification could include various processes such as DNA methylation, histone alteration, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), and chromatin adjustment are among its primary operations. Osteoporosis is a metabolic disorder that bones become more fragile due to the decrease in mineral density, which could result in a higher risk of fracturing. Recently, as the investigation of the causal pathology of osteoporosis has been progressed, remarkable improvement has been made in epigenetic research. Recent literatures have illustrated that epigenetics is estimated to be one of the most contributing factors to the emergence and progression of osteoporosis. This dissertation primarily focuses on indicating the research progresses of epigenetic mechanisms and also the regulation of bone metabolism and the pathogenesis of osteoporosis in light of the significance of epigenetic mechanisms. In addition, it aims to provide new intelligence for the treatment of diseases related to bone metabolism.

J Orthop Surg Res 2023; 18:227. [PMID: 36944992 PMCID: PMC10031892 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-03710-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Aspirin is a commonly used antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory drug. Numerous researches have demonstrated that aspirin exerts multiple biological effects on bone metabolism. However, its spatiotemporal roles remain controversial according to the specific therapeutic doses used for different clinical conditions, and the detailed mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Hence, in the present study, we aimed to identify the dual effects of different aspirin dosages on osteoclastic activity and osteoblastic bone formation in vitro and in vivo. METHODS The effects of varying doses of aspirin on osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation were evaluated in vitro. The underlying molecular mechanisms were detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blotting, and immunofluorescence techniques. An ovariectomized rat osteoporosis model was used to assess the bone-protective effects of aspirin in vivo. RESULTS Aspirin dose-dependently suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclasts differentiation and bone resorption in vitro and reduced the expression of osteoclastic marker genes, including TRAP, cathepsin K, and CTR. Further molecular analysis revealed that aspirin impaired the RANKL-induced NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways and prevented the nuclear translocation of the NF-κB p65 subunit. Low-dose aspirin promoted osteogenic differentiation, whereas these effects were attenuated when high-dose aspirin was administered. Both low and high doses of aspirin prevented bone loss in an ovariectomized rat osteoporosis model in vivo. CONCLUSION Aspirin inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and promotes osteogenesis in a dual regulatory manner, thus preventing bone loss in vivo. These data indicate that aspirin has potential applications in the prevention and treatment of osteopenia.

Abstract
Background Osteoporosis (OP) is a metabolic disease that involves microstructure destruction and fracture damage. The present study probed into the significance of miR-215-5p in OP progression. Methods Serum samples were collected from surgical patients and healthy controls. qRT-PCR analysis was utilized to determine the miR-215-5p level in clinical samples and human bone mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) induced by β-glycerol phosphate. A dual luciferase reporter assay was exploited to examine the targeted relationship between miR-215-5p and XIAP. The mineralization and calcium deposition of hBMSCs were assessed by detection of ALP activity, Alizarin red staining, and osteoblast marker expression. Protein expression was determined by western blot analysis. Results MiR-215-5p was significantly reduced in patients with OP and increased in hBMSCs treated with β-glycerophosphate. Enhanced miR-215-5p level triggered augment in osteoblast markers (Alkaline phosphatase/ ALP, Osteocalcin/ OCN, and Runt-Related Transcription Factor 2/ Runx2), which was accompanied by the increase of ALP activity in hBMSCs and accumulation of Calcium. Functional experiments show that XIAP was a target of miR-215-5p and negatively modulated by miR-215-5p. XIAP expression levels were increased in OP samples, and decreased XIAP in β-glycerophosphate-treated hBMSCs inhibited its’ osteogenic differentiation. Functional loss and acquisition experiments depicted that miR-215-5p promoted the differentiation of hBMSCs by inhibiting the XIAP level, playing a protective role in the pathogenesis of OP. Conclusions β-glycerophosphate promoted the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs, increased miR-215-5p level, and decreased XIAP. miR-215-5p stimulated osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs by targeting XIAP, shedding new insights for the detection and therapy of OP.

Aging (Albany NY) 2022; 14:4486-4499. [PMID: 35587369 PMCID: PMC9186780 DOI: 10.18632/aging.204088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2022] [Accepted: 05/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Noncoding RNAs play an important role in regulating osteoclast differentiation. We investigated whether and how potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 1 overlapping transcript 1 (KCNQ1OT1), a long noncoding RNA, regulates osteoclast differentiation. We found that the expression of KCNQ1OT1 was downregulated in osteoporotic bone tissue. Then transfection of KCNQ1OT1 overexpression vectors or small interfering RNAs showed that the proliferation, migration, and osteoclast differentiation of RAW 264.7 cells were inhibited by KCNQ1OT1 upregulation, while they were promoted by KCNQ1OT1 knockdown. Interestingly, we found and confirmed that miR-128-3p was a target of KCNQ1OT1 using online databases, dual luciferase reporter assays and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and that it inhibited the expression of miR-128-3p. Moreover, we confirmed that miR-128-3p directly targeted nuclear factor of activated T cell 5 (NFAT5), a protein that combines with osteoprotegerin and thus regulates osteoclastogenesis with the presence of the receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand. Furthermore, we demonstrated that both the knockdown of KCNQ1OT1 and the overexpression of miR-128-3p attenuate the expression of NFAT5, while upregulating the osteoclastogenesis markers c-Fos, NFATc1, and Ctsk. The results from overexpression of KCNQ1OT1 and the inhibition of miR-128-3p were contrary to the above. Finally, we found that the inhibition of osteoclast differentiation by KCNQ1OT1 overexpression could be rescued using a miR-128-3p mimic, while the enhancement of migration and osteoclast differentiation by si-NFAT5 could be reversed with a miR-128-3p inhibitor. These results suggested that KCNQ1OT1 regulates the osteoclast differentiation via the miR-128-3p/NFAT5 axis.

Abstract
Osteoclast-mediated bone resorption is responsible for bone metabolic diseases, negatively impacting people's health and life. It has been demonstrated that microRNA influences the differentiation of osteoclasts by regulating the signaling pathways during osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. So far, the involved mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. This review introduced the pathways involved in osteoclastogenesis and summarized the related microRNAs binding to their specific targets to mediate the downstream pathways in osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. We also discuss the clinical potential of targeting microRNAs to treat osteoclast-mediated bone resorption as well as the challenges of avoiding potential side effects and producing efficient delivery methods.

Abstract
Bone metabolism consists of a balance between bone formation and bone resorption, which is mediated by osteoblast and osteoclast activity, respectively. In order to ensure bone plasticity, the bone remodeling process needs to function properly. Mesenchymal stem cells differentiate into the osteoblast lineage by activating different signaling pathways, including transforming growth factor β (TGF-β)/bone morphogenic protein (BMP) and the Wingless/Int-1 (Wnt)/β-catenin pathways. Recent data indicate that bone remodeling processes are also epigenetically regulated by DNA methylation, histone post-translational modifications, and non-coding RNA expressions, such as micro-RNAs, long non-coding RNAs, and circular RNAs. Mutations and dysfunctions in pathways regulating the osteoblast differentiation might influence the bone remodeling process, ultimately leading to a large variety of metabolic bone diseases. In this review, we aim to summarize and describe the genetics and epigenetics of the bone remodeling process. Moreover, the current findings behind the genetics of metabolic bone diseases are also reported.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common metabolic bone disorder typically characterized by decreased bone mass and an increased risk of fracture. At present, the detailed molecular mechanism underlying the development of osteoporosis remains to be elucidated. Accumulating evidence shows that non-coding (nc)RNAs, such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs), play significant roles in osteoporosis through the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression as regulatory factors. Previous studies have demonstrated that ncRNAs participate in maintaining bone homeostasis by regulating physiological and developmental processes in osteoblasts, osteoclasts and bone marrow stromal cells. In the present review, the latest research investigating the involvement of miRNAs, lncRNAs and circRNAs in regulating the differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy of cells that maintain the bone microenvironment in osteoporosis is summarized. Deeper insight into the aspects of osteoporosis pathogenesis involving the deregulation of ncRNAs could facilitate the development of therapeutic approaches for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Aim: This study aims to investigate whether long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) X-inactive specific transcript (Xist) can regulate osteoclast differentiation in osteoporosis and the mechanism. Materials & methods: The mouse model of osteoporosis was established by ovariectomy surgery. Osteoclast differentiation from RAW264.7 cells was induced in vitro. The relationships between associated genes were assessed. Results: Xist and Tgif2 were upregulated, but miR-590-3p was downregulated in ovariectomy mouse femurs and cell models. Xist knockdown or miR-590-3p overexpression inhibited Tgif2 expression and osteoclast differentiation. Tgif2 and Xist were the targets of miR-590-3p. Increased miR-590-3p expression inhibited Tgif2 level and osteoclast differentiation, while Xist overexpression reversed these effects. Conclusion: Xist serves as a ceRNA of miR-590-3p to promote Tgif2 level; thereby, contributing to osteoclast differentiation.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the most common chronic oral disease and is characterized by active osteoclast activity and significant alveolar bone resorption. However, the key regulatory factors of periodontal bone loss have yet to be determined, and reasonable intervention methods for periodontitis have not been developed. Currently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have shown a remarkable ability to maintain normal cell and tissue homeostasis. Interestingly, we recently found that the lncRNA Nron is negatively correlated with alveolar bone resorption in periodontitis model. To explore the role of Nron in periodontal bone loss, osteoclastic-specific Nron knockout mice and osteoclastic-specific Nron transgenic mice were generated. Nron effectively inhibited osteoclastogenesis and alveolar bone resorption. Mechanistically, Nron was found to effectively promote the nuclear transport of NF-κb repressing factor (NKRF). In addition, NKRF in the nucleus significantly repressed the transcription of Nfatc1, which is a major NF-κb signaling molecule. Importantly, local injection of the Nron overexpression vector significantly inhibited osteoclastogenesis and alveolar bone resorption, which indicated the translational application potential of lncRNAs in the treatment of bone resorption in periodontitis.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a bone disease characterized by reduced bone density, thin cortical bone and large gaps in the bone's honeycomb structure, which increases the risk of bone fragility. Uncarboxylated osteocalcin (unOC), a vitamin K-dependent bone protein, is known to regulate carbohydrate and energy metabolism. A previous study demonstrated that unOC promotes the differentiation of mouse bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) into osteoblasts, but inhibits their differentiation into adipocytes. However, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. The present study showed that unOC regulated the differentiation potential of BMSCs via protein kinase A (PKA)/AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) signaling. SIRT1, a member of the sirtuin family with deacetylation functions, was upregulated by unOC in BMSCs. Transfection analyses with SIRT1 small interfering RNA indicated that the unOC-induced differentiation shift in BMSCs required SIRT1. Examination of SIRT1 downstream targets revealed that unOC regulated the acetylation levels of runt-related transcription factor (RUNX) 2 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ). Therefore, unOC inhibited adipogenic differentiation by PPARγ acetylation and promoted osteogenic differentiation by RUNX2 deacetylation. Moreover, phosphorylated PKA and AMPK protein levels increased after unOC treatment, which led to the upregulation of SIRT1. Western blot analysis with PKA and AMPK inhibitors indicated that the PKA-AMPK signaling pathway functioned upstream of SIRT1 and positively regulated SIRT1 expression. These findings led us to propose a model in which unOC regulated BMSC osteogenic differentiation through the PKA-AMPK-SIRT1 axis, giving evidence towards the therapeutic potential of unOC in osteoporosis treatment.

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs are widely implicated in diverse disease processes. Nonetheless, their regulatory roles in bone resorption are undefined. Here, we identify lncRNA Nron as a critical suppressor of bone resorption. We demonstrate that osteoclastic Nron knockout mice exhibit an osteopenia phenotype with elevated bone resorption activity. Conversely, osteoclastic Nron transgenic mice exhibit lower bone resorption and higher bone mass. Furthermore, the pharmacological overexpression of Nron inhibits bone resorption, while caused apparent side effects in mice. To minimize the side effects, we further identify a functional motif of Nron. The delivery of Nron functional motif to osteoclasts effectively reverses bone loss without obvious side effects. Mechanistically, the functional motif of Nron interacts with E3 ubiquitin ligase CUL4B to regulate ERα stability. These results indicate that Nron is a key bone resorption suppressor, and the lncRNA functional motif could potentially be utilized to treat diseases with less risk of side effects. LncRNAs are implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of diseases. Here, the authors show that the lncRNA Nron suppresses bone resorption, and show that delivery of a functional motif of Nron increases bone mass in mouse models of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Objective Osteoporosis and osteoarthritis are metabolic skeletal disorders. This study
aimed to identify specific networks of competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) in
osteoporosis that differ from those in osteoarthritis. Methods The dataset GSE74209 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus, and
differentially expressed microRNAs (DEmiRNAs) in osteoporotic samples and
osteoarthritic samples were identified. After predicting target genes and
linked long noncoding (lnc)RNAs, ceRNA networks of DEmiRNAs were
constructed. The nodes that overlapped between ceRNA networks and the
Comparative Toxicogenomics Database were selected as key candidates. Results Fifteen DEmiRNAs (including 2 downregulated and 13 upregulated miRNAs) were
identified in osteoporotic samples versus osteoarthritic samples; these
targeted 161 genes and linked to 60 lncRNAs. The ceRNA network consisted of
6 DEmiRNAs, 63 target genes, and 53 lncRNAs. After searching the Comparative
Toxicogenomics Database and mining the literature, 2 lncRNAs
(MALAT1 and NEAT1), 2 DEmiRNAs
(hsa-miR-32-3p,
downregulated; and hsa-miR-22-3p, upregulated) and 6 genes
(SP1, PTEN, ESR1,
ERBB3, CSF1R, and
CDK6) that relate to cell death, growth, and
differentiation were identified as key candidates separating osteoporosis
from osteoarthritis. Conclusions Two miRNA–ceRNA networks (including
NEAT1/MALAT1-hsa-miR-32-3p-SP1/FZD6
and
NEAT1/MALAT1-hsa-miR-22-3p-PTEN/ESR1/ERBB3/CSF1R/CDK6)
might have crucial and specific roles in osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis (OP) is the most common bone disease, which is listed by the World Health Organization (WHO) as the third major threat to life and health among the elderly. The etiology of OP is multifactorial, and its potential regulatory mechanism remains unclear. Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) are the non-coding RNAs that are over 200 bases in the chain length. Increasing evidence indicates that LncRNAs are the important regulators of osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation, and the occurrence of OP is greatly related to the dysregulation of the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) differentiation lineage. Meanwhile, LncRNAs affect the occurrence and development of OP by regulating OP-related biological processes. METHODS In the review, we summarized and analyzed the latest findings of LncRNAs in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and related biological processes of OP. Relevant studies published in the last five years were retrieved and selected from the PubMed database using the keywords of LncRNA and OP. RESULTS/CONCLUSION The present study aimed to examine the underlying mechanisms and biological roles of LncRNAs in OP, as well as osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation. Our results contributed to providing new clues for the epigenetic regulation of OP, making LncRNAs the new targets for OP therapy.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a complex multifactorial condition of the musculoskeletal system. Osteoporosis and osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) are associated with high medical costs and can lead to poor quality of life. Genetic factors are important in determining bone mass and structure, as well as any predisposition for bone degradation and OVF. However, genetic factors are not enough to explain osteoporosis development and OVF occurrence. Epigenetics describes a mechanism for controlling gene expression and cellular processes without altering DNA sequences. The main mechanisms in epigenetics are DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). Recently, alterations in epigenetic mechanisms and their activity have been associated with osteoporosis and OVF. Here, we review emerging evidence that epigenetics contributes to the machinery that can alter DNA structure, gene expression, and cellular differentiation during physiological and pathological bone remodeling. A progressive understanding of normal bone metabolism and the role of epigenetic mechanisms in multifactorial osteopathy can help us better understand the etiology of the disease and convert this information into clinical practice. A deep understanding of these mechanisms will help in properly coordinating future individual treatments of osteoporosis and OVF.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are the only cells that perform bone resorption. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are crucial epigenetic regulators of osteoclast biological behaviors ranging from osteoclast differentiation to bone resorption. The main ncRNAs, including miRNAs, circRNAs, and lncRNAs, compose an intricate network that influences gene transcription processes related to osteoclast biological activity. Accumulating evidence suggests that abnormal osteoclast activity leads to the disturbance of subchondral bone remodeling, thus initiating osteoarthritis (OA), a prevalent joint disease characterized mainly by cartilage degradation and subchondral bone remodeling imbalance. In this review, we delineate three types of ncRNAs and discuss their related complex molecular signaling pathways associated with osteoclast function during bone resorption. We specifically focused on the involvement of noncoding RNAs in subchondral bone remodeling, which participate in the degradation of the osteochondral unit during OA progression. We also discussed exosomes as ncRNA carriers during the bone remodeling process. A better understanding of the roles of ncRNAs in osteoclast biological behaviors will contribute to the treatment of bone resorption-related skeletal diseases such as OA.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common metabolic bone disease, influenced by genetic and environmental factors, that increases bone fragility and fracture risk and, therefore, has a serious adverse effect on the quality of life of patients. However, epigenetic mechanisms involved in the development of osteoporosis remain unclear. There is accumulating evidence that epigenetic modifications may represent mechanisms underlying the links of genetic and environmental factors with increased risk of osteoporosis and bone fracture. Some RNAs, such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), have been shown to be epigenetic regulators with significant involvement in the control of gene expression, affecting multiple biological processes, including bone metabolism. This review summarizes the results of recent studies on the mechanisms of miRNA-, lncRNA-, and circRNA-mediated osteoporosis associated with osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Deeper insights into the roles of these three classes of RNA in osteoporosis could provide unique opportunities for developing novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to this disease.

Abstract
Increasing evidence uncover the essential role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNAs) in bone metabolism and the association of lncRNA with genetic risk of osteoporosis. However, whether lncRNA nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (Neat1) is involved remains largely unknown. In the present study, we found that Neat1 is induced by osteoclastic differentiation stimuli. Knockdown of Neat1 attenuates osteoclast formation whereas overexpression of Neat1 accelerates osteoclast formation. In vivo evidence showed that enhanced Neat1 expression stimulates osteoclastogenesis and reduces bone mass in mice. Mechanically, Neat1 competitively binds with microRNA 7 (miR-7) and blocks its function for regulating protein tyrosine kinase 2 (PTK2). Intergenic SNP rs12789028 acts as allele-specific long-range enhancer for NEAT1 via chromatin interactions. We establish for the first time that Neat1 plays an essential role in osteoclast differentiation, and provide genetic mechanism underlying the association of NEAT1 locus with osteoporosis risk. These results enrich the current knowledge of NEAT1 function, and uncover the potential of NEAT1 as a therapeutic target for osteoporosis. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
As the most important bone-resorbing cells, osteoclasts play fundamental roles in bone remodeling and skeletal health. Much effort has been focused on identifying the regulators of osteoclast metabolism. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) reportedly regulate osteoclast formation, differentiation, survival, and bone-resorbing activity to participate in bone physiology and pathology. The present review intends to provide a general framework for how ncRNAs and their targets regulate osteoclast differentiation and the important events of osteoclastogenesis they are involved in, including osteoclast precursor generation, early differentiation, mononuclear osteoclast fusion, and multinucleated osteoclast function and survival. This framework is beneficial for understanding bone biology and for identifying the potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets of bone diseases. The review also summarizes the results of in vivo experiments and classic experiment methods for osteoclast-related researches.

Front Pharmacol 2020; 11:1023.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is one of the common bone metabolic diseases that endangers postmenopausal women and the elders. Both excessive bone resorption caused by osteoclast over-activation and increased oxidative stress are associated with osteoporosis. Cinnamtannin B-1 (CB-1) is considered as a high-valued plant extract monomer due to its antioxidant properties. However, the mechanism of CB-1 impacts on reducing oxidative stress, inhibiting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and osteoclast differentiation and preventing ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis are still unclear. In this study, the effects of CB-1 on nuclear factor κB (RANKL)-induced osteoclasts formation and differentiation in vitro and the potential therapeutic effect on ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporosis in vivo are investigated. CB-1 was found to inhibit osteoclast formation and bone resorption function in a dose-dependent manner, and it inhibited specific genes related to osteoclast as well. Micro-CT and histopathological staining showed that CB-1 can effectively prevent OVX-induced osteoporosis. In addition, CB-1 treatment can effectively inhibit the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in vivo and in vitro. Mechanistically, CB-1 inhibits the activation of osteoclasts by inhibiting the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway. In conclusion, CB-1 would be able to be used as a promising new drug strategy to inhibit RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and prevent ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis.

LncRNA NR-104098 Inhibits AML Proliferation and Induces Differentiation Through Repressing EZH2 Transcription by Interacting With E2F1. Front Cell Dev Biol 2020; 8:142. [PMID: 32296698 PMCID: PMC7136616 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2020.00142] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2020] [Accepted: 02/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Abundant evidence has illustrated that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) plays a vital role in the regulation of tumor development and progression. Most lncRNAs have been proven to have biological and clinical significance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but further investigation remains necessary. In this study, we investigated lncRNA NR-104098 in AML and its specific mechanism. The microarray analysis was performed on NB4 cells. Based on the related analysis results, we identified that lncRNA NR-104098 is a suppressor gene that is significantly upregulated in AML cells. LncRNA NR-104098 could inhibit proliferation and induce differentiation in AML cells in vitro and also play main role in the mouse xenografts. Mechanically, it was confirmed that lncRNA NR-104098 may effectively inhibit EZH2 transcription by directly binding to E2F1 and recruiting E2F1 to the EZH2 promoter. In addition, ATPR can significantly increase the expression of lncRNA NR-104098, whereas knocking down NR104098 can inhibit the inhibitory effect of ATPR on the proliferation and induction differentiation of AML cells. Taken together, these results lead to deeper insight into the mechanism of ATPR-induced AML differentiation and prevent proliferation by inhibiting EZH2 on the transcriptional level.
