Pflugers Arch 2024:10.1007/s00424-024-02977-2. [PMID: 38833170 DOI: 10.1007/s00424-024-02977-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/26/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024]
Abstract
Osteoclasts are multinucleated cells of hematopoietic origin, with a pivotal role in bone development and remodeling. Failure in osteoclast differentiation and activation leads to various bone disorders; thus, attention has focused on a search of molecules involved in osteoclast regulatory pathways. Caspase-8 appears to be an interesting candidate for further exploration, due to its potential function in bone development and homeostasis. Mouse bone marrow cells were differentiated into osteoclasts by RANKL stimulation. Increased activation of caspase-8 and its downstream executioner caspases (caspase-3 and caspase-6) was found during osteoclastogenesis. Subsequent inhibition of caspase-8, caspase-3, or caspase-6, respectively, during osteoclast differentiation showed distinct changes in the formation of TRAP-positive multinucleated cells and reduced expression of osteoclast markers including Acp5, Ctsk, Dcstamp, and Mmp9. Analysis of bone matrix resorption confirmed significantly reduced osteoclast function after caspase inhibition. The results clearly showed the role of caspases in the proper development of osteoclasts and contributed new knowledge about non-apoptotic function of caspases.

Abstract
Yi Mai Jian herbal formula (YMJ) is formulated with Eucommiae Folium, Astragali Radix, Ligustri Lucidi Fructus, and Elaeagnus Fructus to improve bone function in traditional Chinese medicine. The anti-osteoporotic effects of YMJ in bone metabolism were evaluated in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. The skeletal structure of the femur and vertebrae was analyzed after treating OVX rats with YMJ for 114 days. The results showed that YMJ significantly increased the bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular number (Tb. N) of the femur and 5th lumbar vertebrae and reduced trabecular separation (Tb. Sp). Moreover, trabecular bone volume/total tissue volume (BV/TV), bone stiffness, and maximum femur load were significantly increased. The serum concentrations of NTX1 and PYD were significantly decreased. According to these results, YMJ could ameliorate osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats. Eucommiae Folium and Elaeagnus Fructus inhibited osteoclast differentiation, Ligustri Lucidi Fructus inhibited calcium reabsorption, Astragali Radix stimulated osteoblast proliferation, and Astragali Radix and Eucommiae Folium stimulated mineralization. Therefore, the combination of the four herbs into one formula, YMJ, could alleviate bone remodeling caused by low estrogen levels. We suggest that YMJ could be a healthy food candidate for preventing post-menopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) are widely used in the management of newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma patients. These agents show their potential effect on myeloma bone disease (MBD), including inhibition of osteoclasts activity and effects on osteoblasts differentiation. It is unclear whether these effects are direct, which may have an impact on bone formation markers when combined with proteasome inhibitors. AREAS COVERED This review summarizes the available evidence on the role of IMiDs in microenvironment regulation and their potential effects on bone metabolism. The literature search methodology consisted of searching PubMed for basic and clinical trials using medical subject terms. Included articles were screened and evaluated by the coauthors of this review. EXPERT OPINION As a therapeutic option, IMiDs directly affect preosteoblast/osteoclast differentiation. The combination of proteasome inhibitors may counteract the short-term up-regulation of osteogenic activity markers, and therefore intravenous zoledronic acid is recommended, however, obtaining a more significant myeloma response will have a long-term positive impact on myeloma bone disease.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are the primary target for osteoporosis drug development. Recent animal studies revealed the crucial roles of osteoblasts in regulating osteoclastogenesis and the longer lifespans of osteoclasts than previously thought with fission and recycling. However, existing culture platforms are limited to replicating these newly identified cellular processes. We report a demineralized bone paper (DBP)-based osteoblast culture and osteoclast assay platform that replicates osteoclast fusion, fission, resorption, and apoptosis with high fidelity and analytical power. An osteoid-inspired DBP supports rapid and structural mineral deposition by osteoblasts. Coculture osteoblasts and bone marrow monocytes under biochemical stimulation recapitulate osteoclast differentiation and function. The DBP-based bone model allows longitudinal quantitative fluorescent monitoring of osteoclast responses to bisphosphonate drug, substantiating significantly reducing their number and lifespan. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility of humanizing the bone model. The DBP-based osteo assay platforms are expected to advance bone remodeling-targeting drug development with improved prediction of clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Cathepsin K (CatK) is a lysosomal cysteine protease whose highest expression is found in osteoclasts, which are the cells responsible for bone resorption. Investigations of the functions and physiological relevance of CatK have often relied on antibody-related techniques, which makes studying its activity patterns a challenging task. Hence, we developed a set of chemical tools for the investigation of CatK activity. We show that our probe is a valuable tool for monitoring the proteolytic activation of CatK during osteoclast formation. Moreover, we demonstrate that our inhibitor of CatK impedes osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption and that CatK is stored in its active form in osteoclasts within their lysosomal compartment and mainly in the ruffled borders of osteoclasts. Given that our probe recognizes active CatK within living cells without exhibiting any observed cytotoxicity in the several models tested, we expect that it would be well suited to theranostic applications in CatK-related diseases.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are multinucleated cells with the unique ability to resorb bone matrix. Excessive production or activation of osteoclasts leads to skeletal pathologies that affect a significant portion of the population. Although therapies that effectively target osteoclasts have been developed, they are associated with sometimes severe side effects, and a fuller understanding of osteoclast biology may lead to more specific treatments. Along those lines, a rich body of work has defined essential signaling pathways required for osteoclast formation, function, and survival. Nonetheless, recent studies have cast new light on long-held views regarding the origin of these cells during development and homeostasis, their life span, and the cellular sources of factors that drive their production and activity during homeostasis and disease. In this review, we discuss these new findings in the context of existing work and highlight areas of ongoing and future investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Inhibition of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) with denosumab is an effective treatment in a number of conditions including osteoporosis where suppression of bone resorption is desired. However, denosumab discontinuation is associated with rebound increase in bone resorption and subsequent loss in bone mass and a rapid return to baseline fracture risk. We review recent data on the rebound increase in bone resorption following denosumab discontinuation and the potential mechanisms behind this phenomenon. RECENT FINDINGS Osteoclasts have been considered to be highly specialised cells that undergo apoptosis after fulfilling their function of bone resorption. However, recent studies suggest that osteoclasts are longer lived cells which migrate through vasculature and are capable of undergoing fission into a novel cell type (the osteomorph) and re-fusion in a process termed osteoclast recycling. The life cycle of the osteoclast is more complex than previously appreciated. Osteoclast recycling provides a novel mechanistic framework to examine changes in osteoclast biology in response to treatment of bone diseases and provides an exciting new avenue towards personalised medicine.

Traditional Chinese decoction Si Zhi Wan attenuates ovariectomy (OVX)-induced bone loss by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis and promoting apoptosis of mature osteoclasts.

Abstract
Si Zhi Wan (SZW) is a traditional Chinese decoction used for osteoporosis treatment. Currently, the effect of SZW on ovariectomy (OVX)-induced bone loss and the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Herein, we investigated the therapeutic effect of SZW on osteoporosis and explored the underlying mechanisms in vitro and in vivo. An OVX-induced bone loss model was established in vivo. After administration of SZW for 8 weeks, rats were sacrificed, and the uterus was weighted to calculate its index. The femur change was pathologically evaluated using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. The mineral density of the femur was observed by micro-CT. RAW264.7 cells were activated by receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) in vitro. The effect of SZW on osteoclastogenesis was evaluated using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, Western blotting, and RT-PCR. The pro-apoptosis effect of SZW on mature osteoclasts was examined after induction of osteoclast maturation. Finally, the effect of SZW on the NF-κB pathway was evaluated. Our results demonstrated that SZW ameliorated OVX-induced bone loss in rats. In addition, SZW inhibited osteoclastogenesis and attenuated osteoclast-mediated bone resorption in vitro and in vivo. SZW also promoted apoptosis of mature osteoclasts. Mechanically, SZW exerts its effects by suppressing the NF-κB pathway. Overall, these findings demonstrated that SZW may be a potentially effective alternative treatment for osteoporosis.

J Transl Med 2022; 102:1000-1010.

Abstract
RANKL induces NFATc1, a key transcriptional factor to induce osteoclast-specific genes such as cathepsin K, whereas transcriptional control of osteoclast survival is not fully understood. Leukemia/lymphoma-related factor (LRF) in mouse and osteoclast zinc finger protein (OCZF) in rat are zinc finger and BTB domain-containing protein (zBTB) family of transcriptional regulators, and are critical regulators of hematopoiesis. We have previously shown that differentiation and survival were enhanced in osteoclasts from OCZF-Transgenic (Tg) mice. In the present study, we show a possible mechanism of osteoclast survival regulated by LRF/OCZF and the role of OCZF overexpression in pathological bone loss. In the in vitro cultures, LRF was highly colocalized with NFATc1 in cells of early stage in osteoclastogenesis, but only LRF expression persisted after differentiation into mature osteoclasts. LRF expression was further enhanced in resorbing osteoclasts formed on dentin slices. Osteoclast survival inhibitor such as alendronate, a bisphosphonate reduced LRF expression. Micro CT evaluation revealed that femurs of OCZF-Tg mice showed significantly lower bone volume compared to that of WT mice. Furthermore, OCZF overexpression markedly promoted bone loss in ovariectomy-induced osteolytic mouse model. The expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-xl mRNA, which is formed by alternative splicing, was enhanced in the cultures in which osteoclasts are formed from OCZF-Tg mice. In contrast, the expression of pro-apoptotic Bcl-xs mRNA was lost in the culture derived from OCZF-Tg mice. We found that the expression levels of RNA binding splicing regulator, Src substrate associated in mitosis of 68 kDa (Sam68) protein were markedly decreased in OCZF-Tg mice-derived osteoclasts. In addition, shRNA-mediated knockdown of Sam68 expression increased the expression of Bcl-xl mRNA, suggesting that SAM68 regulates the expression of Bcl-xl. These results indicate that OCZF overexpression reduces protein levels of Sam68, thereby promotes osteoclast survival, and suggest that LRF/OCZF is a promising target for regulating pathological bone loss.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is called a silent disease, because it is difficult to detect until comprehensive examinations for osteoporosis are performed or osteoporotic fractures occur. Zoledronic acid is currently the first-line anti-osteoporotic drug, with good efficacy and treatment compliance. A major advantage of zoledronic acid is that intravenous zoledronic acid often guarantees a therapeutic effect for up to 1 year after infusion. The reasons why zoledronic acid is effective in improving osteoporosis are that it can inhibit osteoclast differentiation and induce osteoclast apoptosis, thus suppressing bone resorption and increasing bone density. The story between zoledronic acid and osteoclasts has been written long time ago. Both the canonical receptor activator of the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) pathway and the non-canonical Wnt pathway are the main pathways by which zoledronic acid inhibits osteoclast differentiation. Farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (FPPS), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and ferroptosis that was first proposed in 2012, are all considered to be closely associated with zoledronic acid-induced osteoclast apoptosis. Here, we provide a brief review of the recent progress on the study of zoledronic acid and osteoclasts, and hope to elaborate how zoledronic acid improves osteoporosis by acting on osteoclasts.

Abstract
Apoptosis plays an important role in development and in the maintenance of homeostasis. Apoptotic bodies (ApoBDs) are specifically generated from apoptotic cells and can contain a large variety of biological molecules, which are of great significance in intercellular communications and the regulation of phagocytes. Emerging evidence in recent years has shown that ApoBDs are essential for maintaining homeostasis, including systemic bone density and immune regulation as well as tissue regeneration. Moreover, studies have revealed the therapeutic effects of ApoBDs on systemic diseases, including cancer, atherosclerosis, diabetes, hepatic fibrosis, and wound healing, which can be used to treat potential targets. This review summarizes current research on the generation, application, and reconstruction of ApoBDs regarding their functions in cellular regulation and on systemic diseases, providing strong evidence and therapeutic strategies for further insights into related diseases.

The Effect of Osteoblast Isolation Methods from Adult Rats on Osteoclastogenesis in Co-Cultures. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23147875. [PMID: 35887222 PMCID: PMC9318333 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23147875] [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: 05/28/2022] [Revised: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Co-cultures of osteoblasts and osteoclasts are on the rise because they enable a more complex study. Diseases such as osteoporosis are related to a higher age. Thus, cell isolation from adult individuals is necessary. Osteoblasts can be isolated from the rat femur by three methods: explant culture, explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment, or enzymatic treatment. The isolation methods yield different populations of osteoblasts which, in a co-culture with peripheral blood mononuclear cells, might result in differences in osteoclastogenesis. Therefore, we examined the differences in osteogenic markers, cell proliferation, and the metabolic activity of isolated osteoblast-like cells in a growth and differentiation medium. We then evaluated the effect of the isolated populations of osteoblast-like cells on osteoclastogenesis in a subsequent co-culture by evaluating osteoclast markers, counting formed osteoclast-like cells, and analyzing their area and number of nuclei. Co-cultures were performed in the presence or absence of osteoclastogenic growth factors, M-CSF and RANKL. It was discovered that enzymatic isolation is not feasible in adult rats, but explant culture and explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment were both successful. Explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment yielded cells with a higher proliferation than explant culture in a growth medium. The differentiation medium reduced differences in proliferation during the culture. Some differences in metabolic activity and ALP activity were also found between the osteoblast-like cells isolated by explant culture or by explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment, but only on some days of cultivation. According to microscopy, the presence of exogenous growth factors supporting osteoclastogenesis in co-cultures was necessary for the formation of osteoclast-like cells. In this case, the formation of a higher number of osteoclast-like cells with a larger area was observed in the co-culture with osteoblast-like cells isolated by explant culture compared to the explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment. Apart from this observation, no differences in osteoclast markers were noted between the co-cultures with osteoblast-like cells isolated by explant culture and the explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment. The TRAP and CA II activity was higher in the co-cultures with exogenous growth than that in the co-cultures without exogenous growth factors on day 7, but the opposite was true on day 14. To conclude, explant culture and explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment are both suitable methods to yield osteoblast-like cells from adult rats capable of promoting osteoclastogenesis in a direct co-culture with peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment yielded cells with a higher proliferation. The explant culture yielded osteoblast-like cells which induced the formation of a higher number of osteoclast-like cells with a larger area compared to the explant culture with enzymatic pre-treatment when cultured with exogenous M-CSF and RANKL.

Abstract
Bone loss due to an increased osteoclast activity is common in osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. For the first time, we observed an inhibition of osteoclast formation and bone resorption by outer-membrane vesicles (OMVs) from a Gram-negative, pathogenic bacterium, Proteus mirabilis (P.M). Gene ontogeny and KEGG enrichment analyses of miRNA and mRNA sequencing data demonstrated a significant effect of P.M OMVs on mitochondrial functions and apoptotic pathways. OMVs induced mitochondrial dysfunction through an increased level of intracellular ROS, collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), and modulation of Bax, Bcl-2, caspase-3, and cytochrome c expression. In addition, P.M OMVs strongly inhibited miR-96-5p expression, which caused an upregulation of ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 1 (Abca1) in osteoclasts leading to an increased level of mitochondria-dependent apoptosis. Moreover, treatment with P.M but not Escherichia coli OMVs attenuated bone loss in experimental osteoporosis and collagen-induced arthritis. Collectively, we demonstrated osteoprotective functions of OMVs from Proteus mirabilis, which downregulated miR-96-5p causing an increased Abca1 expression and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis.

Cinacalcet Improves Bone Parameters Through Regulation of Osteoclast Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress, Autophagy, and Apoptotic Pathways in Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder. J Bone Miner Res 2022; 37:215-225. [PMID: 34633122 DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.4459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2021] [Revised: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
The possible mechanisms underlying the quantitative and qualitative effects of cinacalcet on bone were explored in a chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) mouse model in relation to the influence of the interactions among the osteoclast (OC) endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, autophagy and apoptosis pathways on OC differentiation. Body weight and biochemical parameters improved significantly in the CKD + cinacalcet groups compared to the CKD group. Micro-computed tomography (μCT) revealed both cortical and trabecular parameters deteriorated significantly in the CKD group and were reversed by cinacalcet in a dose-dependent manner. Nanoindentation analysis of bone quality proved that both cortical hardness and elastic modulus improved significantly with high dose cinacalcet treatment. In vitro studies revealed that cinacalcet inhibited receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)/receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK)-induced OC differentiation in a concentration-dependent manner through a close interaction between activation of caspase-related apoptosis, reversal of OC autophagy through the protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathways, and attenuation of the OC ER stress/CREBH/NFATc1 signaling pathway. Cinacalcet improves both bone quantity and bone quality in CKD mouse model and inhibits OC differentiation through regulation of the interactions among the apoptosis, ER stress, and autophagy pathways within OCs. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Protein tyrosine phosphatases in skeletal development and diseases. Bone Res 2022; 10:10.

Abstract
Skeletal development and homeostasis in mammals are modulated by finely coordinated processes of migration, proliferation, differentiation, and death of skeletogenic cells originating from the mesoderm and neural crest. Numerous molecular mechanisms are involved in these regulatory processes, one of which is protein posttranslational modifications, particularly protein tyrosine phosphorylation (PYP). PYP occurs mainly through the action of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs), modifying protein enzymatic activity, changing its cellular localization, and aiding in the assembly or disassembly of protein signaling complexes. Under physiological conditions, PYP is balanced by the coordinated action of PTKs and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). Dysregulation of PYP can cause genetic, metabolic, developmental, and oncogenic skeletal diseases. Although PYP is a reversible biochemical process, in contrast to PTKs, little is known about how this equilibrium is modulated by PTPs in the skeletal system. Whole-genome sequencing has revealed a large and diverse superfamily of PTP genes (over 100 members) in humans, which can be further divided into cysteine (Cys)-, aspartic acid (Asp)-, and histidine (His)-based PTPs. Here, we review current knowledge about the functions and regulatory mechanisms of 28 PTPs involved in skeletal development and diseases; 27 of them belong to class I and II Cys-based PTPs, and the other is an Asp-based PTP. Recent progress in analyzing animal models that harbor various mutations in these PTPs and future research directions are also discussed. Our literature review indicates that PTPs are as crucial as PTKs in supporting skeletal development and homeostasis.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are multinucleated cells that are characterized by their unique ability to resorb large quantities of bone. Therefore, they are frequently the target of therapeutic interventions to ameliorate bone loss. In an adult organism, osteoclasts derive from hematopoietic stem cells and differentiate into osteoclasts within a multistep process under the influence of macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (M‐CSF) and receptor activator of NF‐κB ligand (RANKL). Historically, the osteoclast life cycle has been defined as linear, whereby lineage‐committed mononuclear precursors fuse to generate multinucleated highly specialized and localized bone phagocytic cells, which then undergo apoptosis within weeks. Recent advances through lineage tracing, single cell RNA sequencing, parabiosis, and intravital imaging approaches have challenged this dogma, revealing they have greater longevity and the capacity to circulate and undergo cell recycling. Indeed, these new insights highlight that under homeostatic conditions very few incidences of osteoclast apoptosis occur. More importantly, as we revisit the formation and fate of the osteoclast, novel methods to target osteoclast biology in bone pathology and regeneration are emerging. This review briefly summarizes the historical life cycle of osteoclasts and highlights recent discoveries made through advanced methodologies, which have led to a paradigm shift in osteoclast biology. These findings are discussed in light of both existing and emerging bone targeted therapeutics, bone pathologies, and communication between osteoclasts and cells resident in bone or at distant sites. © 2021 The Authors.

Abstract
Osteoclastogenesis is induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), and can be suppressed by osteoprotegerin (OPG). Beclin1 has a dual role in osteoclastogenesis. However, the role of Beclin1-mediated autophagy during OPG-induced inhibition of osteoclastogenesis remains unclear. Here, we found that Beclin1 and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) expression were increased during osteoclastogenesis. OPG (20, 40, and 80 ng/mL) decreased Src and MMP-9 expression, but augmented Beclin1 expression and fluorescence intensity. Similarly, treatment with the autophagy activator rapamycin increased Beclin1 expression during OPG-induced inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. Further, Beclin1 knockdown restored osteoclast numbers by reducing autophagy during OPG-induced inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. These results indicate that Beclin1 has a positive role during OPG-induced inhibition of osteoclastogenesis by regulating autophagy, which might provide a potential basis for osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
We have previously indicated that a single injection of alendronate, one of the nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (NBPs), affects murine hematopoietic processes, such as the shift of erythropoiesis from bone marrow (BM) to spleen, disappearance of BM-resident macrophages, the increase of granulopoiesis in BM and an increase in the number of osteoclasts. NBPs induce apoptosis and the formation of giant osteoclasts in vitro and/or in patients undergoing long-term NBP treatment. Therefore, the time-kinetic effect of NBPs on osteoclasts needs to be clarified. In this study, we examined the effect of alendronate on mouse osteoclasts and osteoclastogenesis. One day after the treatment, osteoclasts lost the clear zone and ruffled borders, and the cell size decreased. After 2 days, the cytoplasm of osteoclasts became electron dense and the nuclei became pyknotic. Some of the cells had fragmented nuclei. After 4 days, osteoclasts had euchromatic nuclei attached to the bone surface. Osteoclasts had no clear zones or ruffled borders. After 7 days, osteoclasts formed giant osteoclasts via the fusion of multinuclear and mononuclear osteoclasts. These results indicate that NBPs affect osteoclasts and osteoclastogenesis via two different mechanisms.

Etanercept Protected Against Cigarette Smoke Extract-Induced Inflammation and Apoptosis of Human Pulmonary Artery Endothelial Cells via Regulating TNFR1. Int J Chron Obstruct Pulmon Dis 2021; 16:1329-1345.

Abstract
Purpose Etanercept (ETN), a tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) inhibitor, has been applied in the treatment of many diseases. However, whether it has effects on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its interaction with tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) remained unknown. Methods Histopathological analysis of lung tissues from non-smokers and smokers with or without COPD was conducted using hematoxylin–eosin (H&E) staining, Van Gieson (VG) staining, and terminal transferase-mediated biotin dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL). TNF-α content was measured using Immunohistochemistry. Correlation analysis among apoptosis rate, smoke index, the FEV1/FVC ratio, and TNF-α-positive cells was performed. After ETN treatment and transfection of overexpressed or silenced TNFR1, levels of inflammatory cytokines, apoptosis and related genes expressions in cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-treated human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAECs) were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Hoechst 33342 staining, flow cytometry, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. Results Pulmonary arterial remodeling and increased apoptotic and TNF-α+ HPAECs were found in lung tissue of smokers with or without COPD, with higher degrees in smokers with COPD. The numbers of apoptotic and TNF-α+ HPAECs were positively correlated with smoke index, while the FEV1/FVC ratio was negatively correlated with apoptotic HPAECs. In HPAECs, ETN downregulated the expressions of proteins related to CSE-induced apoptosis and the TNF receptor family, decreased CSE-induced cell apoptosis and inflammatory cytokine levels, and inhibited TNFR1 expression and p65 phosphorylation. Overexpressed TNFR1 reversed the effects of ETN on CSE-treated HPAECs, whereas silencing TNFR1 did the opposite. Conclusion ETN protected HPAECs against CSE-induced inflammation and apoptosis via downregulating TNFR1, thus providing a potential therapy for smoking-induced COPD.

Abstract
This review provides a rationale for the cellular and molecular mechanisms of bone remodeling stages under physiological conditions and glucocorticoids (GCs) in excess. Remodeling is a synchronous process involving bone resorption and formation, proceeding through stages of: (1) resting bone, (2) activation, (3) bone resorption, (4) reversal, (5) formation, (6) termination. Bone remodeling is strictly controlled by local and systemic regulatory signaling molecules. This review presents current data on the interaction of osteoclasts, osteoblasts and osteocytes in bone remodeling and defines the role of osteoprogenitor cells located above the resorption area in the form of canopies and populating resorption cavities. The signaling pathways of proliferation, differentiation, viability, and cell death during remodeling are presented. The study of signaling pathways is critical to understanding bone remodeling under normal and pathological conditions. The main signaling pathways that control bone resorption and formation are RANK / RANKL / OPG; M-CSF – c-FMS; canonical and non-canonical signaling pathways Wnt; Notch; MARK; TGFβ / SMAD; ephrinB1/ephrinB2 – EphB4, TNFα – TNFβ, and Bim – Bax/Bak. Cytokines, growth factors, prostaglandins, parathyroid hormone, vitamin D, calcitonin, and estrogens also act as regulators of bone remodeling. The role of non-encoding microRNAs and long RNAs in the process of bone cell differentiation has been established. MicroRNAs affect many target genes, have both a repressive effect on bone formation and activate osteoblast differentiation in different ways. Excess of glucocorticoids negatively affects all stages of bone remodeling, disrupts molecular signaling, induces apoptosis of osteocytes and osteoblasts in different ways, and increases the life cycle of osteoclasts. Glucocorticoids disrupt the reversal stage, which is critical for the subsequent stages of remodeling. Negative effects of GCs on signaling molecules of the canonical Wingless (WNT)/β-catenin pathway and other signaling pathways impair osteoblastogenesis. Under the influence of excess glucocorticoids biosynthesis of biologically active growth factors is reduced, which leads to a decrease in the expression by osteoblasts of molecules that form the osteoid. Glucocorticoids stimulate the expression of mineralization inhibitor proteins, osteoid mineralization is delayed, which is accompanied by increased local matrix demineralization. Although many signaling pathways involved in bone resorption and formation have been discovered and described, the temporal and spatial mechanisms of their sequential turn-on and turn-off in cell proliferation and differentiation require additional research.

Abstract
Pulmonary fibrosis is a progressively aggravating lethal disease that is a serious public health concern. Although the incidence of this disease is increasing, there is a lack of effective therapies. In recent years, the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis has become a research hotspot. p53 is a tumor suppressor gene with crucial roles in cell cycle, apoptosis, tumorigenesis, and malignant transformation. Previous studies on p53 have predominantly focused on its role in neoplastic disease. Following in-depth investigation, several studies have linked it to pulmonary fibrosis. This review covers the association between p53 and pulmonary fibrosis, with the aim of providing novel ideas to improve the clinical diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract
Palmatine is a naturally occurring isoquinoline alkaloid with various pharmacological properties. Given its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, palmatine may be able to impede the effects of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its related diseases triggered by inflammation and oxidative stress. This review summarises the existing literature about the effects of palmatine supplementation on MetS and its complications. The evidence shows that palmatine could protect against MetS, and cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, which might be associated with MetS. These protective effects are mediated by the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of palmatine. Although preclinical experiments have demonstrated the efficacy of palmatine against MetS and its related diseases, no human clinical trials have been performed to validate these effects. This research gap should be bridged to validate the efficacy and safety of palmatine supplementation in protecting humans against MetS and its related diseases.

Abstract
Classically, osteoclast fusion consists of four basic steps: (1) attraction/migration, (2) recognition, (3) cell-cell adhesion, and (4) membrane fusion. In theory, this sounds like a straightforward simple linear process. However, it is not. Osteoclast fusion has to take place in a well-coordinated manner-something that is not simple. In vivo, the complex regulation of osteoclast formation takes place within the bone marrow-in time and space. The present review will focus on considering osteoclast fusion in the context of physiology and pathology. Special attention is given to: (1) regulation of osteoclast fusion in vivo, (2) heterogeneity of osteoclast fusion partners, (3) regulation of multi-nucleation, (4) implications for physiology and pathology, and (5) implications for drug sensitivity and side effects. The review will emphasize that more attention should be given to the human in vivo reality when interpreting the impact of in vitro and animal studies. This should be done in order to improve our understanding of human physiology and pathology, as well as to improve anti-resorptive treatment and reduce side effects.

Abstract
Dietary procyanidin has been shown to be an important bioactive component that regulates various pharmacological activities to maintain metabolic homeostasis. In particular, grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE) is a commercially available medicine for the treatment of venous and lymphatic dysfunction. This study aimed to investigate whether GSPE protects against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced bone loss in vivo and the related mechanism of action in vitro. The administration of GSPE restored the inflammatory bone loss phenotype stimulated by acute systemic injection of LPS in vivo. GSPE strongly suppressed receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption activity of mature osteoclasts by decreasing the RANKL-induced nuclear factor-κB transcription activity. GSPE mediates this effect through decreased phosphorylation and degradation of NF-κB inhibitor (IκB) by IκB kinaseβ, subsequently inhibiting proto-oncogene cellular Fos and nuclear factor of activated T cells. Additionally, GSPE promotes osteoclast proliferation by increasing the phosphorylation of components of the Akt and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways and it also inhibits apoptosis by decreasing the activity of caspase-8, caspase-9, and caspase-3, as corroborated by a decrease in the Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling -positive cells. Our study suggests a direct effect of GSPE on the proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of osteoclasts and reveals the mechanism responsible for the therapeutic potential of GSPE in osteoclast-associated bone metabolism disease.

Aerobic and resistance training improve alveolar bone quality and interferes with bone-remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement in mice. Bone 2020; 138:115496. [PMID: 32585320 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2020.115496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2020] [Revised: 06/18/2020] [Accepted: 06/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
The direct effects of physical activity on long bones are already recognized. However, little information is available regarding distant osseous sites, such as maxillary bone. We evaluated the influence of physical training on alveolar bone quality, with and without mechanically-induced load during orthodontic tooth movement in mice. Forty-two C57BL/6 mice were divided into sedentary, resistance and aerobic training groups. Training period lasted for eight weeks and mechanical loads (orthodontic tooth movement - OTM) were applied during the last 14 days of training. Both types of training enhanced the quality of maxillary bone, increasing bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular bone volume (BV) and bone volume/total volume ratio (BV/TV). OTM significantly reduced in trained groups. Consistently, the number of osteoblasts increased whereas the number of osteoclasts decreased on the OTM side in trained groups in comparison to the sedentary group. IGF-1, RUNX2 and OPG genes expression were also increased. The RANKL/OPG ratio and IL-6 expression were reduced in the maxillary bone. Similar results were verified in the femoral bone. In line with these findings, physical training resulted in a decrease of osteoclast differentiation from femoral bone marrow; as well as the force required to fracture the tibia of trained animals increased. Physical training also caused EDL muscle hypertrophy and increased expression of IGF-1 and IGF-1/Myostatin ratio in the gastrocnemius muscle, whereas FNDC5 gene expression was similar among groups in femur, but decreased in alveolar bone submitted to OTM. In conclusion, physical training increased bone quality, not only on long bones, but also in a distant site such as the maxilla. Differences were more evident in the course of maxillary mechanical loading. Mechanisms involve systemic and local effects on bone cells and target molecules as RANKL, OPG, IL-6 and IGF-1.

Abstract
Excessive bone resorption by osteoclasts (OCs) covers an essential role in developing bone diseases, such as osteoporosis (OP) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Monocytes or macrophages fusion and multinucleation (M-FM) are key processes for generating multinucleated mature cells with essential roles in bone remodelling. Depending on the phenotypic heterogeneity of monocyte/macrophage precursors and the extracellular milieu, two distinct morphological and functional cell types can arise mature OCs and giant cells (GCs). Despite their biological relevance in several physiological and pathological responses, many gaps exist in our understanding of their formation and role in bone, including the molecular determinants of cell fusion and multinucleation. Here, we outline fusogenic molecules during M-FM involved in OCs and GCs formation in healthy conditions and during OP and RA. Moreover, we discuss the impact of the inflammatory milieu on modulating macrophages phenotype and their differentiation towards mature cells. Methodological approach envisaged searches on Scopus, Web of Science Core Collection, and EMBASE databases to select relevant studies on M-FM, osteoclastogenesis, inflammation, OP, and RA. This review intends to give a state-of-the-art description of mechanisms beyond osteoclastogenesis and M-FM, with a focus on OP and RA, and to highlight potential biological therapeutic targets to prevent extreme bone loss.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disease manifested clinically by polyarthralgia associated with joint dysfunction triggering the antibodies targeting against the self-neoepitopes determined by autoimmune responses associated with chronic arthritic attacks. The activation of macrophages and other defence cells in response to self-epitopes as biomarkers in RA provides a better understanding of pathogenesis of disease and has led to the development of novel therapeutic approaches acting as potent inhibitors of these cells. KEY FINDINGS The current review retrieved the various medicinal plants possessing an active phytoconstituents with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which tends to be effective alternative approach over the synthetic drugs concerned with high toxic effects. The current available literature provided an evident data concluding that the active constituents like fatty acids, flavonoids, terpenes and sesquiterpene lactones attenuate the RA symptoms by targeting the inflammatory biomarkers involved in the pathogenesis of RA. SUMMARY Despite the various synthetic treatment approaches targeting immune cells, cytokines improved the quality of life but still the drug management is challenging due to toxic and chronic teratogenic effects with anti-arthritic drugs. The current review has elaborated the selected traditionally used herbal medicinal plants with phytoconstituents possessing anti-inflammatory activity by suppressing the inflammatory biomarkers with lesser side effects and providing the future exploration of natural drug therapy for rheumatoid arthritis.
