Abstract
Type 2 diabetic osteoporosis (T2DOP) is a chronic bone metabolic disease. Compared with traditional menopausal osteoporosis, the long-term high glucose (HG) microenvironment increases patients' risk of fracture and osteonecrosis. We were accumulating evidence that implicated ferroptosis as a pivotal mechanism of glucolipotoxicity-mediated death of osteocytes and osteoblast, a novel form of programmed cell death resulting from uncontrolled lipid peroxidation depending on iron. Vitamin K2 (VK2), a fat-soluble vitamin, is clinically applied to prevent osteoporosis and improve coagulation. This study aimed to clarify the role and mechanism of VK2 in HG-mediated ferroptosis. We established the mouse T2DOP model by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin solution and a high-fat and high-sugar diet. We also cultured bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in HG to simulate the diabetic environment in vitro. Based on our data, VK2 inhibited HG-mediated bone loss and ferroptosis, the latter manifested by decreased levels of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species, lipid peroxidation, and malondialdehyde and increased glutathione in vitro. In addition, VK2 treatment was capable of restoring bone mass and strengthening the expression of SIRT1, GPX4, and osteogenic markers in the distal femurs. As for further mechanism exploration, we found that VK2 could activate AMPK/SIRT1 signaling, and knockdown of SIRT1 by siRNA prevented the VK2-mediated positive effect in HG-cultured BMSCs. Summarily, VK2 could ameliorate T2DOP through the activation of the AMPK/SIRT1 signaling pathway to inhibit ferroptosis.

Abstract
Vitamin K, a cofactor for the γ-glutamyl carboxylase enzyme, is required for the post-translational activation of osteocalcin and matrix Gla protein, which play a key role in bone and muscle homeostasis. In vivo and in vitro models for osteoporosis and sarcopenia suggest the vitamin K could exert a positive effect in both conditions. In bone, it increases osteoblastogenesis, whilst decreases osteoclast formation and function. In muscle, it is associated with increased satellite cell proliferation and migration and might play a role in energy metabolism. Observational trials suggest that high levels of vitamin K are associated with increased bone mineral density and reduced fracture risk. However, interventional studies for vitamin K supplementation yielded conflicting results. Clinical trials in sarcopenia suggest that vitamin K supplementation could improve muscle mass and function. One of the main limitations on the vitamin K studies are the technical challenges to measure its levels in serum. Thus, they are obtained from indirect sources like food questionnaires, or levels of undercarboxylated proteins, which can be affected by other environmental or biological processes. Although current research appoints to a beneficial effect of vitamin K in bone and muscle, further studies overcoming the current limitations are required in order to incorporate this supplementation in the clinical management of patients with osteosarcopenia.

Abstract
Several in vivo trials have previously demonstrated the beneficial effects of the administration of various probiotic forms on bone health. In this study, we explored the potency of two probiotics, Bacillus subtilis and Lactococcus lactis, alone or in combination with vitamin D (VD), to modulate the transcription of genes involved in the ossification process in a human osteoblast cell line. Genes that mark the "osteoblast proliferation phase", such as RUNX2, TGFB1, and ALPL, "extracellular matrix (ECM) maturation", such as SPP1 and SPARC, as well as "ECM mineralization", such as BGN, BGLAP, and DCN, were all highly expressed in osteoblasts treated with B. subtilis extract. The observed increase in the transcription of the ALPL mRNA was further in agreement with its protein levels as observed by Western blot and immunofluorescence. Therefore, this higher transcription and translation of alkaline phosphatase in osteoblasts treated with the B. subtilis extract, indicated its substantial osteogenic impact on human osteoblasts. Although both the probiotic extracts showed no osteogenic synergy with VD, treatment with B. subtilis alone could increase the ECM mineralization, outperforming the effects of L. lactis and even VD. Furthermore, these results supported the validity of employing probiotic extracts rather than live cells to investigate the effects of probiotics in the in vitro systems.

Abstract
Bone-related diseases are major contributors to morbidity and mortality in elderly people and the current treatments result in insufficient healing and several complications. One of the promising areas of research for healing bone fractures and skeletal defects is regenerative medicine using stem cells. Differentiating stem cells using agents that shift cell development towards the preferred lineage requires activation of certain intracellular signaling pathways, many of which are known to induce osteogenesis during embryological stages. Imitating embryological bone formation through activation of these signaling pathways has been the focus of many osteogenic studies. Activation of osteogenic signaling can be done by using small molecules. Several of these agents, e.g., statins, metformin, adenosine, and dexamethasone have other clinical uses but have also shown osteogenic capacities. On the other hand, some other molecules such as T63 and tetrahydroquinolines are not as well recognized in the clinic. Osteogenic small molecules exert their effects through the activation of signaling pathways known to be related to osteogenesis. These pathways include more well-known pathways including BMP/Smad, Wnt, and Hedgehog as well as ancillary pathways including estrogen signaling and neuropeptide signaling. In this paper, we review the recent data on small molecule-mediated osteogenic differentiation, possible adjunctive agents with these molecules, and the signaling pathways through which each small molecule exerts its effects.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) results from a reduction in bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration in bone tissue due to estrogen deficiency, which may increase the incidence of fragility fractures. The number of people suffering from PMO has increased over the years because of the rapidly aging population worldwide. However, several pharmacological agents for the treatment of PMO have many safety risks and impose a heavy financial burden to patients and society. In recent years, the "gut-bone" axis has been proposed as a new approach in the prevention and treatment of PMO. This paper reviews the relationship between the gut microbiota and PMO, which mainly includes the underlying mechanisms between hormones, immunity, nutrient metabolism, metabolites of the gut microbiota and intestinal permeability, and explores the possible role of the gut microbiota in these processes. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic effects of diet, prebiotics, probiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation on the gut microbiota.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) 1–34 is the first anabolic agent approved for the treatment of osteoporosis. Preclinical evidence shows a potential association between PTH and osteosarcoma. The mechanisms mediating the bone- and neoplasm-forming effects of PTH remain incompleted understood, few studies on the role of Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) in mediating the anabolic effects of PTH has been reported. Intermittent PTH administration was found to increase the expression of IGFBP7 in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and pre-osteoblasts. The results indicated that the anabolic effects of PTH were interrupted when knockdown of IGFBP7, while supplementation with IGFBP7 protein could enhance the bone-forming efficacy of PTH and regulate the signaling pathways. Moreover, bone healing was accelerated by the administration of IGFBP7 along with PTH in a mouse model of fracture. The obtained results proved that IGFBP7 was necessary for the anabolic effects of PTH, and combined administration of PTH and IGFBP7 showed stronger bone-forming effects relative to administration of PTH alone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effects of intermittent parathyroid hormone on cementoblast-mediated periodontal repair in the context of orthodontic-induced root resorption. MATERIALS AND METHODS The rat model of orthodontic-induced root resorption was established. Sixty rats were randomly allocated into the experiment group (n = 30) and the control group (n = 30), either receiving a daily subcutaneous injection of recombinant human PTH or placebo vehicle. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Micro-computed tomography, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and immunohistochemistry staining were performed to detect the periodontal repair. In vitro, OCCM-30 cells were exposed to intermittent PTH (incubated with PTH for the first 6 h in each 24-h cycle). After three cycles, flow cytometry assay, alkaline phosphatase staining, and Alizarin red staining were performed. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting were employed to further determine the effects of intermittent PTH. RESULTS Intermittent PTH-responsive repair enhancement was detected with the expression of bone sialoprotein, osteocalcin, collagen-1, and alkaline phosphatase significantly upregulated. Increased expressions of cementoblastic proteins were positively correlated to cycles of PTH administration. The proportion of cementoblasts in S and G2/M phases was increased; namely, intermittent PTH promoted cementoblast cell proliferation. CONCLUSIONS Intermittent parathyroid hormone administration promotes cementoblast-mediated cementogenesis during periodontal repair in a time-dependent manner.

Abstract
The loss of bone quantity and quality in postmenopausal female patients can be a problem for dental treatment. A sufficient intake of nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, and vitamins D and K is likely correlated with the mechanical properties of bone. In particular, vitamin K2, also called menaquinone (MK), inhibits bone loss in postmenopausal women. Here we demonstrate the microstructural and mechanical properties of bone recovery in ovariectomized (OVX) rats during MK-7 administration. Bilateral ovariectomy and a sham operation were performed on 14-week-old female SPF Wistar rats. MK-4 and -7 were orally administered at 30 mg/kg daily for 12 weeks. The femur was used for the 3-point bending test and microstructural analysis of the cancellous bone by micro-CT, and the mandibular cortical bone for the evaluation of mechanical properties on a nanoscale. Micro-computed tomography revealed irregular trabecular architecture, hollow marrow cavities, and sparse trabecular bone in the femurs of the OVX group. Trabecular bone structure analysis showed that the MK-7 group had greater bone volume per tissue volume (BV/TV) and a higher trabecular number than the OVX group. The bulk-scale 3-point bending test did not allow the mechanical properties between OVX and OVX/MK7 groups to be discerned, yet at the smallest level, the elastic-plastic transition point of the nanoindentation stress-strain curve of the mandibular cortical bone was higher in the MK-7 group than in the OVX group. These findings suggest that MK-7 enables bone microstructural and mechanical recovery in the OVX model.

Abstract
An atypical femoral fracture (AFF) is a rare complication associated with excessive inhibition of osteoclast expression during treatment of osteoporosis. We herein describe a patient who had been treated with alendronate for more than 10 years and subsequently developed an AFF that healed after treatment with vitamin K2 (VK2). We also discuss the potential beneficial effects of VK2 on the healing of AFFs. A 48-year-old Asian man with secondary osteoporosis was treated with alendronate for more than 10 years. The patient underwent surgical treatment for a complete AFF of the right femur. Six months postoperatively, he complained of pain in his left thigh. X-ray examination revealed an incomplete AFF of the left femoral shaft. He was then treated with VK2. After 4 months of VK2 treatment, the patient reported that the pain in his left thigh had decreased, and follow-up X-ray examination demonstrated healing of the left AFF line. This case report indicates that VK2 may be a potential direction for pharmacological treatment of AFFs in future research.

Parathyroid Hormone Secretion and Receptor Expression Determine the Age-Related Degree of Osteogenic Differentiation in Dental Pulp Stem Cells. J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11050349. [PMID: 33925324 PMCID: PMC8144966 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11050349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2021] [Revised: 04/20/2021] [Accepted: 04/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: To demonstrate the levels of parathyroid hormone secretion and genetic expressions of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH1 receptor (PTH1R) genes in the dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) from different age groups before and after induction of osteogenic differentiation. In addition, we also wanted to check their correlation with the degree of osteogenic differentiation. Methods: Human primary DPSCs from three age groups (milk tooth (SHEDs), 7–12 years old; young DPSCs (yDPSCs), 20–40 years old; old DPSCs (oDPSCs), 60+ years old) were characterized for mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) markers. DPSCs were subjected to osteogenic differentiation and functional staining. Gene expression levels were analyzed by qRT-PCR. Surface receptor analysis was done by flow cytometry. Comparative protein levels were evaluated by ELISA. Results: All SHEDs, yDPSCs, and oDPSCs were found to be expressing mesenchymal stem cell markers. SHEDs showed more mineralization than yDPSCs and oDPSCs after osteogenic induction. SHEDs exhibited higher expression of PTH and PTH1R before and after osteogenic induction, and after osteogenic induction, SHEDs showed more expression for RUNX2, ALPL, and OCN. Higher levels of PTH were observed in SHEDs and yDPSCs, and the number of PTH1R positive cells was relatively lower in yDPSCs and oDPSCs than in SHEDs. After osteogenic induction, SHEDs were superior in the secretion of OPG, and the secretions of ALPL and PTH and the number of PTH1R positive cells were relatively low in the oDPSCs. Conclusions: The therapeutic quality of dental pulp stem cells is largely based on their ability to retain their stemness characteristics. This study emphasizes the criterion of aging, which affects the secretion of PTH by these cells, which in turn attenuates their osteogenic potential.

[PMID: 33541442 PMCID: PMC7863540 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-021-02178-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2020] [Accepted: 01/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone fracture repair has gained a lot of attention due to the high incidence of delayed union or even nonunion especially in osteoporotic patients, resulting in a dreadful impact on the quality of life. However, current therapies involve the costly expense and hence become unaffordable strategies for fracture recovery. Herein, developing new strategies for better bone repair is essential and urgent. Catalpol treatment has been reported to attenuate bone loss and promote bone formation. However, the mechanisms underlying its effects remain unraveled. METHODS Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were isolated from rat femurs. BMSC osteogenic ability was assessed using ALP and ARS staining, immunofluorescence, and western blot analysis. BMSC-mediated angiogenic potentials were determined using the western blot analysis, ELISA testing, scratch wound assay, transwell migration assay, and tube formation assay. To investigate the molecular mechanism, the lentivirus transfection was used. Ovariectomized and sham-operated rats with calvaria defect were analyzed using micro-CT, H&E staining, Masson's trichrome staining, microfil perfusion, sequential fluorescent labeling, and immunohistochemistry assessment after administrated with/without catalpol. RESULTS Our results manifested that catalpol enhanced BMSC osteoblastic differentiation and promoted BMSC-mediated angiogenesis in vitro. More importantly, this was conducted via the JAK2/STAT3 pathway, as knockdown of STAT3 partially abolished beneficial effects in BMSCs. Besides, catalpol administration facilitated bone regeneration as well as vessel formation in an OVX-induced osteoporosis calvarial defect rat model. CONCLUSIONS The data above showed that catalpol could promote osteogenic ability of BMSC and BMSC-dependent angiogenesis through activation of the JAK2/STAT3 axis, suggesting it may be an ideal therapeutic agent for clinical medication of osteoporotic bone fracture.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the serum level of osteocalcin (OC), also known as bone Gla protein, in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and its correlation with abdominal aortic calcification (AAC). METHODS From July 2017 to February 2020, we enrolled 108 adult MHD patients. Routine fasting blood laboratory tests were performed before the start of the second hemodialysis in a week. Abdominal aortic calcification score (AACs) was assessed within 1 month. Pearson correlation and Logistic regression were used to analyze the data. RESULTS The OC level was 231.56 (25.92,361.33) ng/ml, elevating significantly in this group of MHD patients. It had a positive correlation with serum phosphorus (r = 0.511, P = 0.001), intact parathyroid hormone(iPTH) (r = 0.594, P = 0.0001), fibroblast growth factor 23(FGF23) (r = 0.485, P = 0.003) and a negative correlation with age(r = -0.356, P = 0.039). Based on the AACs, patients were divided into two groups. Serum OC level were higher in patients with AACs≥5 (p=0.032). A multiple logistics regression analysis revealed that age (odds ratio [OR]1.14, P=0.005) and OC(OR=1.10, P=0.008)were risk factors for high AACs(≥5). CONCLUSION The study implicated that OC elevated significantly in this group of MHD patients.OC is positively correlated with phosphorus, iPTH, FGF23, and a negative correlation with age. OC was a risk factor for vascular calcification in this study, but this study did not classify osteocalcin as c-OC and unOC. Whether unOC is associated more directly with vascular calcification requires further study.

Abstract
The Bacillus subtilis natto fermented soy protein isolate (FSPI) exhibited concentration-dependent scavenging activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS+·) and hydroxyl (·OH) free-radicals. In addition, FSPI administration significantly increased superoxide dismutase activity in mice liver and serum by 20.2% and 86.2%, and suppressed the production of malondialdehyde by 51.3% and 35.1%, respectively, compared to high-fat control (HFC) group. Notably, the movement of mice treated with FSPI was livelier and more active, and its weight gain was significantly lower than that of both NC and HFC groups. The production and accumulation of perirenal fat was also significantly inhibited by FSPI, however, no significant difference in TG and TC levels were observed between FSPI and HFC groups. The results revealed the great potential of FSPI applying in the development of health food or sports food.

Vitamin K2 Can Rescue the Dexamethasone-Induced Downregulation of Osteoblast Autophagy and Mitophagy Thereby Restoring Osteoblast Function In Vitro and In Vivo. Front Pharmacol 2020; 11:1209.

Abstract
Chronic long-term glucocorticoids (GC) use is associated with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) by inhibiting the survival and impairing the functions of osteoblasts. Autophagy and mitophagy play key roles in osteoblast differentiation, mineralization and survival, and mounting evidence have implicated osteoblast autophagy and mitophagy as a novel mechanism in the pathogenesis of GIOP. Vitamin K2 (VK2) is an essential nutrient supplement that have been shown to exert protective effects against osteoporotic bone loss including GIOP. In this study, we showed that the glucocorticoid dexamethasone (Dex) deregulated osteoblast autophagy and mitophagy by downregulating the expression of autophagic and mitophagic markers LC3-II, PINK1, Parkin. This consequently led to inhibition of osteoblast differentiation and mineralization function in vitro. Interestingly, co-treatment with VK2 significantly attenuated the Dex-induced downregulation of LC3-II, PINK1, Parkin, thereby restoring autophagic and mitophagic processes and normal osteoblastic activity. In addition, using an established rat model of GIOP, we showed that VK2 administration can protect rats against the deleterious effects of Dex on bone by reinstating autophagic and mitophagic activities in bone tissues. Collectively, our results provide new insights into the role of osteoblast autophagy and mitophagy in GIOP. Additionally, the use of VK2 supplementation to augment osteoblast autophagy/mitophagy may significantly improve clinical outcomes of GIOP patients.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a severe health problem causing bone fragility and consequent fracture. Titanium (Ti) implants, used in patients with osteoporotic fractures, are prone to failure because of the decreased bone mass and strength. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to fabricate implants possessing osteogenic properties to improve implant osseointegration. To improve the long-term survival rate of Ti implants in osteoporotic patients, hyaluronic acid/ϵ-polylysine multilayers containing the parathyroid hormone (PTH)-related protein (PTHrP) were deposited on Ti implants by a layer-by-layer (LBL) electro assembly technique. The murine pre-osteoblast cell line MC3T3-E1, possessing a high potential of osteoblast differentiation, was used to evaluate the osteo-inductive effects of Ti-LBL-PTHrP in vitro. In addition, the performance of the Ti (Ti-LBL-PTHrP) implant was evaluated in vivo in a femoral intramedullary implantation in Sprague Dawley rats. The Ti-LBL-PTHrP implant regulated the release of the loaded PTHrP to increase bone formation in the early stage of implantation. The in vitro results revealed that cells on Ti-LBL-PTHrP did not show any evident proliferation, but a high level of alkaline phosphatase activity and osteoblast-related protein expression was found, compared to the uncoated Ti group (p < 0.05). In addition, in vivo micro-CT and histological analysis demonstrated that the Ti-LBL-PTHrP implants could significantly promote the formation and remodeling of new bone in osteoporotic rats at 14 d after implantation. Overall, this study established a profound and straightforward methodology for the manufacture of biofunctional Ti implants for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Different effects of Wnt/β-catenin activation and parathyroid hormone on diaphyseal and metaphyseal in the early phase of femur bone healing of mice. Clin Exp Pharmacol Physiol 2019; 46:652-663.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and agents related to the manipulation of Wnt/β-catenin signalling are two promising anabolic anti-osteoporotic therapies that have been shown to promote the healing of bone fractures. Now, it is widely accepted that cortical bone and trabecular bone are two different compartments, and should be treated as separate compartments in pathological processes, such as fracture healing. It is currently unknown whether PTH and the activation of β-catenin signalling would demonstrate different effects on cortical bone and trabecular bone healing. In the current study, single 0.6-mm cortex holes were made in the femur metaphysis and diaphysis of mice, and then, PTH application and β-catenin activation were used to observe the promoting effect on bone healing. The effects of β-catenin and PTH signalling on fracture healing were observed by X-ray and CT at 3, 6, and 14 days after fracture, and the levels of β-catenin were detected by RT-PCR assay, and the number of specific antigen-positive cells of BRDU, OCN, RUNX2 was counted by immunohistochemical staining. While β-catenin activation and PTH were found to demonstrate similar effects on accelerating metaphyseal bone healing, activation of β-catenin showed a more striking effect than PTH on promoting diaphyseal bone healing. These findings might be helpful for selecting proper medication to accelerate fracture healing of different bone compartments.
