Liu XW, Xu HW, Yi YY, Zhang SB, Chang SJ, Pan W, Wang SJ. Inhibition of Mettl3 ameliorates osteoblastic senescence by mitigating m6A modifications on Slc1a5 via Igf2bp2-dependent mechanisms. Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2024; 1870:167273. [PMID: 38844111 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2024.167273] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
Age-related osteoporosis is characterized by a marked decrease in the number of osteoblasts, which has been partly attributed to the senescence of cells of the osteoblastic lineage. Epigenetic studies have provided new insights into the mechanisms of current osteoporosis treatments and bone repair pathophysiology. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a novel transcript modification that plays a major role in cellular senescence and is essential for skeletal development and internal environmental stability. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the expression of the m6A reading protein Igf2bp2 was significantly higher in osteoporosis patients. However, the role of Igf2bp2 in osteoblast senescence has not been elucidated. In this study, we found that Igf2bp2 levels are increased in ageing osteoblasts induced by multiple repetition and H2O2. Increasing Igf2bp2 expression promotes osteoblast senescence by increasing the stability of Slc1a5 mRNA and inhibiting cell cycle progression. Additionally, Mettl3 was identified as Slc1a5 m6A-methylated protein with increased m6A modification. The knockdown of Mettl3 in osteoblasts inhibits the reduction of senescence, whereas the overexpression of Mettl3 promotes the senescence of osteoblasts. We found that administering Cpd-564, a specific inhibitor of Mettl3, induced increased bone mass and decreased bone marrow fat accumulation in aged rats. Notably, in an OVX rat model, Igf2bp2 small interfering RNA delivery also induced an increase in bone mass and decreased fat accumulation in the bone marrow. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that the Mettl3/Igf2bp2-Slc1a5 axis plays a key role in the promotion of osteoblast senescence and age-related bone loss.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 128:155516. [PMID: 38547625 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155516] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2023] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, osteoblast pyroptosis has been proposed as a potential pathogenic mechanism underlying osteoporosis, although this remains to be confirmed. Luteolin (Lut), a flavonoid phytochemical, plays a critical role in the anti-osteoporosis effects of many traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions. However, its protective impact on osteoblasts in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) has not been elucidated. PURPOSE This research aimed to determine the effect of Lut in ameliorating PMOP by alleviating osteoblast pyroptosis and sustaining osteogenesis. STUDY DESIGN This research was designed to investigate the novel mechanism of Lut in alleviating PMOP both in cell and animal models. METHODS Ovariectomy-induced PMOP models were established in mice with/without daily gavaged of 10 or 20 mg/kg body weight Lut. The impact of Lut on bone microstructure, metabolism and oxidative stress was evaluated with 0.104 mg/kg body weight Estradiol Valerate Tablets daily gavaged as positive control. Network pharmacological analysis and molecular docking were employed to investigate the mechanisms of Lut in PMOP treatment. Subsequently, the impacts of Lut on the PI3K/AKT axis, oxidative stress, mitochondria, and osteoblast pyroptosis were assessed. In vitro, cultured MC3T3-E1(14) cells were exposed to H2O2 with/without Lut to examine its effects on the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, osteogenic differentiation, mitochondrial function, and osteoblast pyroptosis. RESULTS Our findings demonstrated that 20 mg/kg Lut, similar to the positive control drug, effectively reduced systemic bone loss and oxidative stress, and enhanced bone metabolism induced by ovariectomy. Network pharmacological analysis and molecular docking indicated that the PI3K/AKT axis was a potential target, with oxidative stress response and nuclear membrane function being key mechanisms. Consequently, the effects of Lut on the PI3K/AKT axis and pyroptosis were investigated. In vivo data revealed that the PI3K/AKT axis was deactivated following ovariectomy, and Lut restored the phosphorylation of key proteins, thereby reactivating the axis. Additionally, Lut alleviated osteoblast pyroptosis and mitochondrial abnormalities induced by ovariectomy. In vitro, Lut intervention mitigated the inhibition of the PI3K/AKT axis and osteogenesis, as well as H2O2-induced pyroptosis. Furthermore, Lut attenuated ROS accumulation and mitochondrial dysfunction. The effects of Lut, including osteogenesis restoration, anti-pyroptosis, and mitochondrial maintenance, were all reversed with LY294002 (a PI3K/AKT pathway inhibitor). CONCLUSION In summary, Lut could improve mitochondrial dysfunction, alleviate GSDME-mediated pyroptosis and maintain osteogenesis via activating the PI3K/AKT axis, offering a new therapeutic strategy for PMOP.

[PMID: 38381065 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202304091] [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: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024]
Abstract
Inspired by the Fenton-like reaction, this work combines copper peroxide (CP) nanoparticles with black phosphorus (BP) nanosheets to form a hydroxyl radical (·OH)-centered "catalytic" osteogenic system. CP-produced ·OH interacts with BP to rapidly produce a large amount of phosphate ions, thus accelerating self-mineralization and promoting bone formation. In turn, BP not only exerts anti-inflammatory effects, thereby providing a favorable microenvironment for bone formation, but also offsets the potential toxicity of CP induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Together with copper ions (Cu2+), phosphate ions are also released as a byproduct of this process, which can contribute to the comprehensive promotion of osteogenesis.

Abstract
Bones are vital for anchoring muscles, tendons, and ligaments, serving as a fundamental element of the human skeletal structure. However, our understanding of bone development mechanisms and the maintenance of bone homeostasis is still limited. Extracellular signal-related kinase 5 (ERK5), a recently identified member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family, plays a critical role in the pathogenesis and progression of various diseases, especially neoplasms. Recent studies have highlighted ERK5's significant role in both bone development and bone-associated pathologies. This review offers a detailed examination of the latest research on ERK5 in different tissues and diseases, with a particular focus on its implications for bone health. It also examines therapeutic strategies and future research avenues targeting ERK5.

Abstract
Background Treatment of chronic osteomyelitis (bone infection) remains a clinical challenge; in particular, it requires enhanced delivery of antibiotic drugs for the treatment of intracellular Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), which prevents infection recurrence and resistance. Previous studies have found that noninvasive shock waves used to treat musculoskeletal diseases can alter cell permeability, however, it is unclear whether shock waves alter cell membrane permeability in chronic osteomyelitis. Furthermore, it remains unknown whether such changes in permeability promote the entry of antibiotics into osteoblasts to exert antibacterial effects. Methods In our study, trypan blue staining was used to determine the shock wave parameters that had no obvious damage to the osteoblast model; the effect of shocks waves on the cell membrane permeability of osteoblast model was detected by BODIPY®FL vancomycin; high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HLPC-MS) was used to detect the effect of shock wave on the entry of antibiotics into the osteoblast model; plate colony counting method was used to detect the clearance effect of shock wave assisted antibiotics on S. aureus in the osteoblast model. To explore the mechanism, the effect of different pulses of shock waves on S. aureus was examined by plate colony counting method, besides, P2X7 receptor in osteoblast was detected by immunofluorescence and the extracellular ATP levels was detected. Furthermore, the effect of P2X7 receptor antagonists KN-62 or A740003 on the intracellular antibacterial activity of shock-assisted antibiotics was observed. Then, we used S. aureus to establish a rat model of chronic tibial osteomyelitis and investigated the efficacy and safety of shock-wave assisted antibiotics in the treatment of chronic osteomyelitis in rats. Results The viability of the osteoblast models of intracellular S. aureus infection was not significantly affected by the application of up to 400 shock wave pulses at 0.21 mJ/mm2. Surprisingly, the delivery of BODIPY®FL vancomycin to osteoblast model cells was markedly enhanced by this shock wave treatment. Furthermore, the shock wave therapy increased the delivery of hydrophilic antibiotics (vancomycin and cefuroxime sodium), but not lipophilic antibiotics (rifampicin and levofloxacin), which improved the intracellular antibacterial effect. Afterwards, we discovered that shock wave treatment increased the extracellular concentration of ATP (the P2X7 receptor activator), while KN-62 or A740003, a P2X7 receptor inhibitor, decreased intracellular antibacterial activity. We then found that 0.1 mL of 1 × 1011 CFU/mL ATCC25923 S. aureus was suitable for modeling chronic osteomyelitis in rats. Besides, the shock wave-assisted vancomycin treatment with the strongest antibacterial and osteogenic effects among the tested treatments was confirmed in vivo by imaging examination, microbiological cultures, and histopathology, with favorable safety. Conclusions Our results suggest that shock waves can promote the entry of antibiotics into osteoblasts for antibacteria by changing the cell membrane permeability in a P2X7 receptor-dependent manner. Besides, considering antibacterial and osteogenic efficiency and a high degree of safety in rat osteomyelitis model, shock wave-assisted vancomycin treatment may thus represent a possible adjuvant therapy for chronic osteomyelitis.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a widely observed condition characterized by the systemic deterioration of bone mass and microarchitecture, which increases patient susceptibility to fragile fractures. The intricate mechanisms governing bone homeostasis are substantially impacted by extracellular vesicles (EVs), which play crucial roles in both pathological and physiological contexts. EVs derived from various sources exert distinct effects on osteoporosis. Specifically, EVs released by osteoblasts, endothelial cells, myocytes, and mesenchymal stem cells contribute to bone formation due to their unique cargo of proteins, miRNAs, and cytokines. Conversely, EVs secreted by osteoclasts and immune cells promote bone resorption and inhibit bone formation. Furthermore, the use of EVs as therapeutic modalities or biomaterials for diagnosing and managing osteoporosis is promising. Here, we review the current understanding of the impact of EVs on bone homeostasis, including the classification and biogenesis of EVs and the intricate regulatory mechanisms of EVs in osteoporosis. Furthermore, we present an overview of the latest research progress on diagnosing and treating osteoporosis by using EVs. Finally, we discuss the challenges and prospects of translational research on the use of EVs in osteoporosis.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, characterized by reduced bone density and the deterioration of bone tissue, poses a significant health challenge. The mechanisms underlying the protective effects of both raw and salt-processed Achyranthes bidentata Radix in osteoporosis remains unclear. This study endeavors to unravel and analyze the therapeutic mechanisms of these two forms of Achyranthes bidentata Radix in osteoporotic zebrafish larvae, utilizing GC/MS-based metabolomics. Zebrafish larvae were categorized into five groups: blank control, model, positive control, and groups treated with raw and salt-processed Achyranthes bidentata Radix. Following drug administration, notable enhancements were observed in both mineralized bone area and cumulative optical density. Various data mining techniques were employed, encompassing principal component analysis, orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis, and metabolic pathway analysis. These analyses unveiled 26 differential endogenous metabolites with significant biological implications in the zebrafish osteoporosis model. Among these metabolites, 12 (including acetamide, L-lactic acid, threonine, glycerol, rhamnose, azelaic acid, palmitic acid, inositol, stearic acid, hexadecane, sucrose, and glyceryl monostearate) were validated using standard compounds, exhibiting strong linear correlation coefficients (R2) ranging from 0.9917 to 0.9999. Furthermore, the method demonstrated excellent repeatability, as evidenced by relative standard deviation (RSD) values below 7.37%. The average spiked recoveries of the standard compounds fell within the range of ± 15%, ranging from 85.45% to 114.28%. Additionally, the stability of the standard compounds was confirmed after three freeze-thaw cycles, with RSD values remaining below 14.40%. Collectively, the metabolomic analysis unearthed potential biomarkers that could serve as indicators of the therapeutic effects of raw and salt-processed Achyranthes bidentata Radix on osteoporosis. This research offers valuable insights into the potential utilization of these herbal remedies as natural interventions for osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis (OP) is a progressive metabolic disorder that is difficult to cure clinically. The molecular mechanisms of OP urgently need to be further examined. This study was designed to explore the potential function of circ_0027885 during osteogenic differentiation, as well as the systematic interactions among circ_0027885, miR-203-3p and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2). METHODS Relative levels of circ_0027885, miR-203-3p and RUNX2 were analyzed with RT-qPCR and western blotting. Alizarin red staining was performed to detect the mineralization ability under the control of circ_0027885 and miR-203-3p. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was conducted to examine the combination among circ_0027885, miR-203-3p and RUNX2. RESULTS Our research demonstrated that circ_0027885 was significantly increased during hBMSCs differentiation. Overexpression of circ_0027885 notably facilitated osteogenic differentiation and upregulated RUNX2 expression, while knockdown of circ_0027885 reversed the above results. Through prediction on bioinformatics analysis, miR-203-3p was the target binding circ_0027885, and RUNX2 was the potential target of miR-203-3p. Subsequently, these changes induced by the overexpression of circ_0027885 were reversed upon addition of miR-203-3p mimic. CONCLUSIONS Circ_0027885 could sponge miR-203-3p to regulate RUNX2 expression and alleviate osteoporosis progression.

Abstract
With the aging of the global population, the incidence of musculoskeletal diseases has been increasing, seriously affecting people's health. As people age, the microenvironment within skeleton favors bone resorption and inhibits bone formation, accompanied by bone marrow fat accumulation and multiple cellular senescence. Specifically, skeletal stem/stromal cells (SSCs) during aging tend to undergo adipogenesis rather than osteogenesis. Meanwhile, osteoblasts, as well as osteocytes, showed increased apoptosis, decreased quantity, and multiple functional limitations including impaired mechanical sensing, intercellular modulation, and exosome secretion. Also, the bone resorption function of macrophage-lineage cells (including osteoclasts and preosteoclasts) was significantly enhanced, as well as impaired vascularization and innervation. In this study, we systematically reviewed the effect of aging on bone and the within microenvironment (including skeletal cells as well as their intracellular structure variations, vascular structures, innervation, marrow fat distribution, and lymphatic system) caused by aging, and mechanisms of osteoimmune regulation of the bone environment in the aging state, and the causal relationship with multiple musculoskeletal diseases in addition with their potential therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic bone disease characterized by low bone mass, microarchitectural deterioration, increased bone fragility, and fracture susceptibility. It commonly occurs in older people, especially postmenopausal women. As global ageing increases, osteoporosis has become a global burden. There are a number of medications available for the treatment of osteoporosis, categorized as anabolic and anti-resorptive. Unfortunately, there is no drugs which have dual influence on bone, while all drugs have limitations and adverse events. Some serious adverse events include jaw osteonecrosis and atypical femoral fracture. Recently, a novel medication has appeared that challenges this pattern. Romosozumab is a novel drug monoclonal antibody to sclerostin encoded by the SOST gene. It has been used in Japan since 2019 and has achieved promising results in treating osteoporosis. However, it is also accompanied by some controversy. While it promotes rapid bone growth, it may cause serious adverse events such as cardiovascular diseases. There has been scepticism about the drug since its inception. Therefore, the present review comprehensively covered romosozumab from its inception to its clinical application, from animal studies to human studies, and from safety to cost. We hope to provide a better understanding of romosozumab for its clinical application.

Abstract
Bisphosphonates are drugs that are used to treat osteoporosis that causes the low mineral density of the bones. These drugs can be delivered in several ways, but each method has disadvantages. Materials with high potential as carriers of these drugs are zeolites with divalent ions. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of divalent cations (calcium, magnesium, zinc) and drug type (risedronate, zoledronate) on sorption and release of the drug for osteoporosis. It was proved that drug sorption occurs on all zeolites presented in this work. Risedronate sorption was highest in zinc zeolite and lowest in calcium zeolite. In the case of zoledronate, sorption was most effective in magnesium zeolite and the least effective in zinc zeolite. Very large differences in drug release profiles were also observed. Risedronate was released several times longer than zoledronate. The diversity of the results indicates that the examined materials can be used in different types of drug delivery systems. They can be used, for example, intravenously or in the form of implants due to the different release profiles. Furthermore, the proposed carriers also release magnesium and calcium ions which are used in the prevention of osteoporosis, and zinc ions which have antibacterial properties.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the effects of osteogenic growth peptide C-terminal pentapeptide (G36G), and its analog G48A on bone modeling in rats with ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis. Ovariectomized rats were administered PBS (OVX group), risedronate (RISE group), G36G combined with risedronate (36GRI group), G36G (G36G group), or G48A (G48A group). The sham-operation rats (SHAM group) were administered PBS. Serum osteocalcin and IGF-2 levels in the SHAM, OVX, G36G, G48A, and RISE groups were observably lower than the 36GRI group (P < 0.01) and the bone mineral density of the entire femur, distal metaphysis, and lumbar L1-L4 in the 36GRI group were notably increased (P < 0.05). The bending energy of the 36GRI group was prominently higher than the other groups (P < 0.05). Other features measured in the study that provided significant outcomes was the ratio of femora ash weight/dry weigh, parameters of trabecular bone volume (TBV)/total tissue volume, TBV/sponge bone volume, mean trabecular plate thickness, mean trabecular plate space, bone surface, parameters of sfract(s) and sfract(d), tetracycline-labeled, and osteoid surfaces. Bone loss in ovariectomized rats may be partially inhibited by G36G and G48A. A combination treatment with G36G and risedronate may be an effective intervention for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Bone marrow adiposity has been associated with several metabolic syndromes such as diabetes and osteoporosis. Imbalance in adipogenic and osteoblastogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (hBM-MSCs) was suggested to be the cause of elevated bone marrow adiposity. There are several drugs, of both natural and synthetic origin, to treat bone loss. In this study, as a part of a recent trend to discover natural products with more biocompatibility and fewer side effects to treat bone loss, the effect of hyunganol II (HNG), a coumarin isolated from Corydalis heterocarpa, on hBM-MSC adipogenesis was investigated. Cells treated with HNG showed decreased lipid accumulation indicating a diminished adipocyte phenotype. Treatment with HNG also suppressed the mRNA and protein expressions of PPARγ, C/EBPα, and SREBP1c, and three adipogenic marker genes. Further analysis of MAPK signaling pathway exhibited that HNG treatment elevated ERK activation and suppressed the JNK-mediated cFos and cJun phosphorylation, which inhibits PPARγ transcriptional activity. Taken together, HNG treatment was shown to inhibit adipogenesis via suppressed PPARγ expression as a result of altered MAPK signaling. Therefore, it was suggested that HNG might prevent bone marrow adiposity by inhibiting hBM-MSC adipogenesis and can be utilized as a drug or nutraceutical with beneficial effects on bone. Thus, further studies should be conducted to analyze its effect in vivo.

Abstract
Melatonin is an important endogenous hormone that modulates homeostasis in the microenvironment. Recent studies have indicated that serum melatonin levels are closely associated with the occurrence and development of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Exogenous melatonin could also improve bone mass and increase skeletal strength. To determine the underlying mechanisms of melatonin in the prevention and treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis, we performed this review to analyze the role of melatonin in bone metabolism according to its physiological functions. Serum melatonin is related to bone mass, the measurement of which is a potential method for the diagnosis of osteoporosis. Melatonin has a direct effect on bone remodeling by promoting osteogenesis and suppressing osteoclastogenesis. Melatonin also regulates the biological rhythm of bone tissue, which benefits its osteogenic effect. Additionally, melatonin participates in the modulation of the bone microenvironment. Melatonin attenuates the damage induced by oxidative stress and inflammation on osteoblasts and prevents osteolysis from reactive oxygen species and inflammatory factors. As an alternative drug for osteoporosis, melatonin can improve the gut ecology, remodel microbiota composition, regulate substance absorption and maintain metabolic balance, all of which are beneficial to the health of bone structure. In conclusion, our review systematically demonstrates the effects of melatonin on bone metabolism. Based on the evidence in this review, melatonin will play a more important role in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
Fufang Zhenshu Tiaozhi (FTZ) has been widely used in clinical practice and proven to be effective against aging-induced osteoporosis in mice. This study aimed to explore the mechanism of FTZ against osteoclastogenesis and ovariectomized-induced (OVX) bone loss through the network pharmacology approach. The ingredients of FTZ were collected from the previous UPLC results, and their putative targets were obtained through multiple databases. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) during osteoclastogenesis were identified through multi-microarrays analysis. The common genes between FTZ targets and DEGs were used to perform enrichment analyses through the clusterProfier package. The affinity between all FTZ compounds and enriched genes was validated by molecular docking. The effects of FTZ on osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption were evaluated by TRAP staining, bone resorption assay and RT-qPCR in vitro, while its effects on bone loss by ELISA and Micro-CT in vivo. Enrichment analyses indicated that the inhibitory effects of FTZ may primarily involve the regulation of inflammation, osteoclastogenesis, as well as TNF-α signaling pathway. 130 pairs docking results confirmed FTZ ingredients have good binding activities with TNF-α pathway enriched genes. FTZ treatment significantly reduced TRAP, TNF-α, IL-6 serum levels and increased bone volume in OVX mice. Consistently, in vitro experiments revealed that FTZ-containing serum significantly inhibited osteoclast differentiation, bone resorption, and osteoclast related mRNA expression. This study revealed the candidate targets of FTZ and its potential mechanism in inhibiting osteoclastogenesis and bone loss induced by OVX, which will pave the way for the application of FTZ in the postmenopausal osteoporosis treatment.

Abstract
Curculigo orchioides is widely used to treat osteoporosis in China. In this study, we identified the active substances in the crude polysaccharide (CO50) from C. orchioides that had anti-osteoporosis activity in vivo. Two polysaccharides, COP50-1 and COP50-4, were purified from CO50. Based on structural analysis, COP50-1 was composed of α-D-Glcp-(1→, β-D-Galp-(1→, →4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→, →3,4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→, →4,6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→, →4,6)-β-D-Manp-(1→, whereas COP50-4 was composed of α-L-Araf-(1→, →2)-α-L-Rhap-(1→, β-D-Manp-(1→, α-D-Galp-(1→, →2,4)-α-L-Rhap-(1→, →2)-β-D-Manp-(1→, →4)-α-D-GlcAp-(1→, →3)-α-D-GalAp-(1→, →4,6)-α-D-Galp-(1→, →2,3,6)-β-D-Manp-(1→, →2,3,5)-α-L-Araf-(1→, →2,5)-α-L-Araf-(1→, →4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→ and →3)-α-D-Galp-(1→. Pharmacological assessment revealed that COP50-1 had no obvious osteogenic activity. However, COP50-4 (0.5 μM) significantly enhanced the differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts in vitro. Moreover, the effect of COP50-4 was greater than that of 17β-estradiol. Therefore, COP50-4 may be an effective component of CO50 that has great potential for development as an alternative drug for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR), cannabinoid receptor 2 (CBR2), and estrogen receptor α (ERα) play vital roles in osteoblasts proliferation. Also, collagen peptides have osteoblasts proliferation stimulation abilities, and di/tri-peptides could be absorbed by the intestine more easily. This study obtained three di/tripeptides with potential osteoblasts proliferation stimulation abilities of yak bone collagen, namely, MGF, CF, and MF, by in silico screening. Results suggested that these three peptides exhibited good absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) properties. They also had strong affinities with EPCR, CBR2, and ERα, and the total -CDOCKER energy (-CE) values were 150.9469, 113.1835, and 115.3714 kcal/mol, respectively. However, further Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assays indicated that only MGF could significantly (P < 0.05) stimulate osteoblasts proliferation at 0.3 mg/ml. At the same time, the proliferating index (PI) of the osteoblasts treated with MGF increased significantly (P < 0.05), and the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity decreased highly significantly (P < 0.01). In summary, MGF exhibited the potential to be an effective treatment for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Nitazoxanide (NTZ) is an FDA-approved anti-parasitic drug with broad-spectrum anti-infective, anti-inflammatory, and antineoplastic potential. However, its regulatory effects on osteoclastogenesis and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The present study found that NTZ potently inhibited osteoclast formation at the early stage of receptor activator of NF-κB ligand-induced osteoclastogenesis in a concentration-dependent manner at a non-growth inhibitory concentration. NTZ suppressed actin ring formation and decreased osteoclast marker gene expression, including TRAP, MMP9, and cathepsin K. NTZ significantly impaired the bone resorption activity of osteoclasts. In vivo, ovariectomized mice were treated with 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg/d NTZ for 3 months. NTZ (100 mg/kg/d) administration markedly reduced ovariectomy-induced bone loss by suppressing osteoclast activity. Mechanistically, osteoclastogenesis blockade elicited by NTZ resulted from inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation, and reduction of the Ca2+ fluorescence intensity and NFATc1 expression. NTZ weakened the binding between STAT3 and the NFATc1 promoter region. Furthermore, enforced NFATc1 expression partly rescued the impaired osteoclast differentiation in NTZ-treated RAW264.7 cells. In summary, NTZ could inhibit osteoclastogenesis and bone loss through modulation of the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand-induced STAT3-NFATc1 signaling pathway, which might be a potential alternative treatment regimen against bone destruction-related diseases including osteoporosis.

The aim of this study is to assess the ability of stainless-steel cannulated screws to reduce the risk of a femoral neck fracture, if placed prophylactically prior to a fall. Materials and Methods We created finite element models from computed tomography (CT) scan-based 3D models of a geriatric patient through 3D-image processing and model generation software. We used linear finite element simulations to analyze the effect of cannulated screws in the proximal femur in single-leg stance and lateral fall, which were processed for peak von Mises stresses and element failure. Findings Prophylactically placed cannulated screws significantly reduced failure in an osteoporotic proximal femur undergoing lateral fall. Three implanted screws in an inverted triangle formation decreased proximal femoral trabecular failure by 21% and cortical failure by 5%. This reduction in failure was achieved with a 55% decrease in femoral neck failure and 14% in lateral cortex failure. Conclusion Our results indicate that cannulated hip screws in an inverted triangle formation may strengthen an osteoporotic proximal femur in the event of a lateral fall. Mechanical testing on cadaveric or composite models is required to validate these results.

Yu H, Li Y, Tang J, Lu X, Hu W, Cheng L. Long non-coding RNA RP11-84C13.1 promotes osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells and alleviates osteoporosis progression via the miR-23b-3p/RUNX2 axis. Exp Ther Med 2021; 22:1340. [PMID: 34630694 PMCID: PMC8495569 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2021.10775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2020] [Accepted: 08/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The objective of the present study was to determine the role of RP11-84C13.1 in osteoporosis (OP) and its molecular mechanism. First, clinical samples were collected from OP patients and normal control patients. Human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) were extracted from femoral head tissues. Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) and RP11-84C13.1 serum levels were assessed by reverse transcription-quantitative (RT-q)PCR. Following transfection of pcDNA-RP11-84C13.1, si-RP11-84C13.1, microRNA (miRNA)-23b-3p mimic and miRNA-23b-3p inhibitor, the expression levels of RUNX2 and RP11-84C13.1 were determined by RT-qPCR. In addition, the osteogenic ability of hBMSCs was assessed by Alizarin Red staining. The binding of RP11-84C13.1 to miRNA-23b-3p and the binding of miRNA-23b-3p to RUNX2 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) RP11-84C13.1 was significantly downregulated in the serum of OP patients. The osteogenic differentiation-related genes RUNX2 and RP11-84C13.1 were markedly upregulated in a time-dependent manner, while the miRNA-23b-3p level gradually decreased in hBMSCs with the prolongation of osteogenesis. RP11-84C13.1 knockdown inhibited the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs. Furthermore, RP11-84C13.1 regulated RUNX2 expression by targeting miRNA-23b-3p. Overexpression of miRNA-23b-3p partially reversed the promoting effect of RP11-84C13.1 on the osteogenesis of hBMSCs. In conclusion, lncRNA RP11-84C13.1 upregulated RUNX2 by absorbing miRNA-23b-3p, and thus induced hBMSC osteogenesis to alleviate osteoporosis.

Abstract
Mixed-valence non-heme diiron centers are present at the active sites of a few enzymes and confer them interesting reactivities with the two ions acting in concert. Related (μ-phenoxido)diiron complexes have been developed as enzyme mimics. They exhibit very rich spectroscopic properties enabling independent monitoring of each individual ion, which proved useful for mechanistic studies of catalytic hydrolysis and oxidation reactions. In our studies of such complexes, we observed that these compounds give rise to a wide variety of electron transfers (intervalence charge transfer), proton transfers (tautomerism), coupled electron and proton transfers (H. abstraction and PCET). In this minireview, we present and analyze the main results illustrating the latter aspects.

Abstract
Inflammatory osteolysis is a pathological skeletal disease associated with not only the production of inflammatory cytokines but also local oxidative status. Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) promote bone resorption by osteoclasts and induce the apoptosis of osteoblasts. In consideration of the lack of effective preventive or treatments options against osteolysis, the exploitation of novel pharmacological compounds/agents is critically required. In our study, we found that a novel antioxidant compound, JSH-23, plays a role in restoring bone homeostasis by scavenging intracellular ROS during both osteoclastogenesis and osteoblastogenesis. Mechanically, JSH-23 suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis, bone resorption and the expression of specific genes (including NFATc1, c-Fos, TRAP, CTSK and DC-STAMP) via inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway. Meanwhile, JSH-23 suppressed RANKL-induced ROS generation via the TRAF6/Rac1/NOX1 pathway and the enhanced expression of Nrf2/HO-1. In addition, JSH-23 attenuated H2O2-induced apoptosis and mineralization reduction in osteoblasts by reducing ROS production and enhancing Nrf2/HO-1 expression. Our in vivo results further revealed that JSH-23 exerts its protective effects on bone mass through its antioxidant activity. In conclusion, our results show that the application of JSH-23 might be a novel and plausible strategy for the treatment of osteolysis-related disease.

Abstract
Fructus Ligustri Lucidi (FLL) is the fruit of Ligustrum lucidum Ait and is a component of many kidney-tonifying traditional Chinese medicine formulae for treating osteoporosis. Accumulating evidence has linked oxidative stress with the progression of bone diseases. The present study aimed to identify the effects of FLL on oxidative stress-related osteoporosis in vivo and in vitro. To construct animal models, we utilized d-galactose (D-gal) injection to induce oxidative stress combined with a low calcium (the exact percentage in the diet was 0.1%) diet. Thirteen-week-old Kunming female mice were gavaged with water extract of FLL for 20 days. Then, eight-month-old Kunming female mice were treated with FLL under standard administration and diet as the aged group. In vitro, MC3T3-E1 cells stimulated by H2O2 were treated with FLL for 24 h. The micro-CT results showed that the modeling approach combining oxidative stress with a low calcium diet caused low conversion type osteoporosis in mice. FLL exerted a prominent effect on preventing osteoporosis by inhibiting oxidative stress, increasing bone mineral density (BMD), improving bone microstructure, and promoting osteoblast proliferation and osteoprotegerin (OPG) protein expression; however, FLL had no therapeutic effect on bone loss in aged mice. In conclusion, FLL showed outstanding anti-bone loss ability both in vivo and in vitro and could probably be developed as a prophylactic agent for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Bone health requires adequate bone mass, which is maintained by a critical balance between bone resorption and formation. In our study, we identified beraprost as a pivotal regulator of bone formation and resorption. The administration of beraprost promoted differentiation of mouse bone mesenchymal stem cells (M-BMSCs) through the PI3K–AKT pathway. In co-culture, osteoblasts stimulated with beraprost inhibited osteoclastogenesis in a rankl-dependent manner. Bone mass of p53 knockout mice remained stable, regardless of the administration of beraprost, indicating that p53 plays a vital role in the bone mass regulation by beraprost. Mechanistic in vitro studies showed that p53 binds to the promoter region of neuronal precursor cell-expressed developmentally downregulated 4 (Nedd4) to promote its transcription. As a ubiquitinating enzyme, Nedd4 binds to runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), which results in its ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. These data indicate that the p53–Nedd4–Runx2 axis is an effective regulator of bone formation and highlight the potential of beraprost as a therapeutic drug for postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Iron overload induces apoptosis of osteoblast cells via eliciting ER stress-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and p-eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway in vitro. Cell Signal 2021; 84:110024.

Abstract
Iron is an essential element for crucial biological function; whereas excess iron sedimentation impairs the main functions of tissues or organs. Cumulative researches have shown that the disturbances in iron metabolism, especially iron overload is closely concatenating with bone loss. Nevertheless, the specific process of iron overload-induced apoptosis in osteoblasts has not been thoroughly studied. In this study, our purpose is to elucidate the mechanism of osteoblast apoptosis induced by iron overload via the MC3T3-E1 cell line. Ferric ammonium citrate (FAC) was utilized to simulate iron overload conditions in vitro. These results showed that treatment with FAC dose-dependently induced the apoptosis of MC3T3-E1 cells at 48 h, dysfunction of iron metabolism, and increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Following, FAC does-dependently caused the calcium dyshomeostasis, decreased the calcium concentration in endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but increased the crosstalk between ER and mitochondria, and calcium concentration in the mitochondria. Moreover, FAC dose-dependently decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and enhanced the expression of apoptosis related proteins (Bax, Cyto-C and C-caspase3). We furthermore revealed that FAC treatment activated the ER-mediated cell apoptosis via p-eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway in MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts cells. In addition, pretreatment with the N-acetylcysteine (NAC) or Tauroursodeoxycholate Sodium (TUDC) attenuated cell apoptosis, ROS levels, mitochondria fragmentation and ER stress-related protein expression, and recovered the protein expression related to iron metabolism. In conclusion, our finding suggested that iron overload induced apoptosis via eliciting ER stress, which resulted in mitochondrial dysfunction and activated p-eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway.

Abstract
Natural products are one of the resources for discovering novel fungicidal leads. As a natural fungicide, osthole was used as a coumarin-based lead compound for the development of novel fungicides. Here, a series of 3,4-dichloroisothiazole-containing 7-hydroxycoumarins were rationally designed, synthesized, and characterized by introducing a bioactive substructure, 3,4-dichloroisothiazole, into the coumarin skeleton. In vitro bioassay indicated that compound 7g displayed good activity against Rhizoctonia solani, Physalospora piricola, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Botrytis cinerea. Its median effective concentration (EC50) value against each of these fungi fell between 0.88 and 2.50 μg/mL, which was much lower than that of osthole against the corresponding pathogen (between 7.38 and 74.59 μg/mL). In vivo screening validated that 7k exhibited 100%, 60%, and 20% efficacy against R. solani Kühn at 200, 100, and 50 μg/mL, respectively. RNA sequence analysis implied that growth inhibition of R. solani by 7k might result from potential disruptions of fungal membrane formation and intracellular metabolism. Furthermore, a field experiment with cucumber plants indicated that 7b showed 62.73% and 74.03% efficacy against Pseudoperonospora cubensis (Berk. & Curt.) Rostov. at rates of 12.5 g a.i./ha and 25 g a.i./ha, respectively, which showed no significant difference between 7b and osthole at 30 g a.i./ha. Our studies suggested that 7b, 7g, and 7k might be used as fungicidal leads for further optimization.

Abstract
An atom- and step-economical strategy for the synthesis of bisphosphinoylaminomethanes is reported. This metal-free bisphosphinylation reaction proceeded smoothly through a base-mediated direct 1,1-bisphosphonation of phosphine oxides and isocyanides under mild conditions. The present method offers a facile, efficient, and general approach to a broad range of bisphosphinoylaminomethane derivatives in moderate to good yields.

Abstract
ETS proto-oncogene 1 (ETS1) has been implicated in osteoporosis (OP), but the exact molecular mechanisms are complex. This work focuses on the impact of ETS1 on the osteogenic differentiation and the molecules involved. A mouse pre-osteoblast cell line MC3T3-E1 was used for in vitro experiments. ETS1 was upregulated during the process of osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. Overexpression of ETS1 promoted expression of osteogenic markers, alkaline phosphate concentration, and calcareous accumulation in cells. ETS1 was found to specifically bind to miR-128 promoter to suppress its transcription, while miR-128 could target homeobox A13 (HOXA13). Therefore, ETS1 suppressed miR-128 transcription to upregulate HOXA13 expression. Overexpression of HOXA13 promoted the osteogenic differentiation ability of cells and increased the protein level of β-catenin. Either overexpression of miR-128 or downregulation of β-catenin by CWP232228, a β-catenin-specific antagonist, blocked the promoting roles of ETS1 in cells. To conclude, this study provided evidence that ETS1 suppresses miR-128 transcription to activate the following HOXA13/β-catenin axis, therefore promoting osteogenic differentiation ability of MC3T3-E1 cells. This finding may offer novel ideas for OP treatment.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, an aging-associated bone metabolic disease, is affecting millions of people worldwide. The deregulated process of osteoblastic differentiation has been linked with the progression of osteoporosis. Trelagliptin is a long-acting inhibitor of DPP-4 used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, it is unknown whether Trelagliptin possesses a beneficial effect in osteoblastic differentiation. Interestingly, we found that treatment with Trelagliptin enhanced differentiation and promoted the mineralization of MC3T3-E1 cells. Firstly, Trelagliptin increased the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and promoted osteoblastic calcium deposition. Additionally, treatment with Trelagliptin upregulated ALP, osteocalcin (OCN), osteopontin (OPN), and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2). Notably, Trelagliptin increased RUNX2, a major regulator of osteoblastic differentiation. Mechanistically, Trelagliptin upregulated the levels of p-AMPKα. Blockage of AMPK with compound C abolished the effects of Trelagliptin in RUNX2 and osteoblastic differentiation, suggesting the involvement of AMPK. Our findings suggest that Trelagliptin might possess a potential for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Astragaloside (AST) is derived from the Chinese herb Astragalus membranaceus, and studies have demonstrated that it promotes differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). To the best of our knowledge, however, the functions of the component AST-IV in osteogenesis have not previously been elucidated. The present study aimed to verify the effects of AST-IV in osteogenesis. First, the proliferation and differentiation status of human BMSCs incubated with AST-IV were analysed and compared with a control (no AST-IV treatment). In order to determine the involvement of the glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)3β signalling pathway in AST-IV, overexpression and inhibition of GSK3β was induced during incubation of BMSCs with AST-IV. In order to investigate how neuronal growth factor (NGF) contributes to BMSCs differentiation, BMSCs were co-incubated with an anti-NGF antibody and AST IV, and then levels of osteogenesis markers were assessed. The results demonstrated for the first time that AST-IV contributed to BMSCs differentiation. Furthermore, the GSK3β/β-catenin signalling pathway was revealed to be involved in AST-IV-induced osteogenesis; moreover, AST-IV accelerated differentiation by enhancing the expression levels of NGF. In summary, the present study demonstrated that AST-IV promotes BMSCs differentiation, thus providing a potential target for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Background Osteoporosis (OP) has the characteristics of the decline in bone mineral density and worsening of bone quality, contributing to a higher risk of fractures. Some microRNAs (miRNAs) have been validated as possible mediators of osteoblast differentiation. We herein aimed to clarify whether miR-497-5p regulates the differentiation of osteoblasts in MC3T3-E1 cells. Methods The expression of miR-497-5p in OP patients and controls was measured by RT-qPCR, and its expression changes during osteoblast differentiation were determined as well. The effects of miR-497-5p on the differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells were studied using MTT, ALR staining, and ARS staining. The target gene of miR-497-5p was predicted by TargetScan, and the effects of its target gene on differentiation and the pathway involved were investigated. Results miR-497-5p expressed poorly in OP patients, and its expression was upregulated during MC3T3-E1 cell differentiation. Overexpression of miR-497-5p promoted mineralized nodule formation and the expression of RUNX2 and OCN. miR-497-5p targeted high mobility group AT-Hook 2 (HMGA2), while the upregulation of HMGA2 inhibited osteogenesis induced by miR-497-5p mimic. miR-497-5p significantly impaired the c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway, whereas HMGA2 activated this pathway. Activation of the JNK pathway inhibited the stimulative role of miR-497-5p mimic in osteogenesis. Conclusions miR-497-5p inhibits the development of OP by promoting osteogenesis via targeting HMGA2.
