Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study aimed to assess the role of Astaxanthin (ATX) in palmitic acid(PA) -induced bone loss in Ovariectomized(OVX) rats. METHODS In the OVX rat model, we observed that PA affects bone metabolism and accelerates bone loss. Additionally, treatment with ATX was able to suppress the deleterious effects of PA and a simultaneous decrease in serum MDA levels and an increase in SOD was observed. RESULTS In addition, rats treated with ATX were observed to have significantly increased bone mass and elevated activity of SIRT1 and SOD2 in bone tissue. When MC3T3-E1 and RAW264.7 cells induced osteoblast and osteoclast differentiation, the ATX intervention was able to significantly restore the restriction of osteogenic differentiation and the up-regulation of osteoclast differentiation with PA therapy. Furthermore, we confirm that PA damage to cells is caused by increased oxidative stress, and that ATX can target and modulate the activity of SIRT1 to regulate the levels of oxidative stress in cells. CONCLUSION Summarizing, ATX may inhibit PA-induced bone loss through its antioxidant properties via the SIRT1 signaling pathway.

Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 141:113016. [PMID: 39182269 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.113016] [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: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 07/05/2024] [Accepted: 08/22/2024] [Indexed: 08/27/2024]
Abstract
The accumulating evidence has made it clear that iron overload is a crucial mechanism in bone loss. Protocatechualdehyde (PCA) has also been used to prevent osteoporosis in recent years. Whether PCA can reverse the harmful effects of iron overload on bone mass in aged rats is still unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the role of PCA in iron overload-induced bone loss in senile rats. In the aged rat model, we observed that iron overload affects bone metabolism and bone remodeling, manifested by bone loss and decreased bone mineral density. The administration of PCA effectively mitigated the detrimental effects caused by iron overload, and concomitant reduction in MDA serum levels and elevation of SOD were noted. In addition, PCA-treated rats were observed to have significantly increased bone mass and elevated expression of SIRT3,BMP2,SOD2 and reduced expression of TNF-α in bone tissue. We also observed that PCA was able to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation and restore the imbalance in bone metabolism. When MC3T3-E1 and RAW264.7 cells induced osteoblast and osteoclasts differentiation, PCA intervention could significantly recover the restriction of osteogenic differentiation and up-regulation of osteoclast differentiation treated by iron overload. Further, by detecting changes in ROS, SOD, MDA, expression of SIRT3 and mitochondrial membrane potentials, we confirm that the damage caused to cells by iron overload is associated with decreased SIRT3 activity, and that 3-TYP have similar effects on oxidative stress caused by FAC. In conclusion, PCA can resist iron overload-induced bone damage by improving SIRT3 activity, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative stress.

Abstract
Aims To investigate the effects of senescent osteocytes on bone homeostasis in the progress of age-related osteoporosis and explore the underlying mechanism. Methods In a series of in vitro experiments, we used tert-Butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) to induce senescence of MLO-Y4 cells successfully, and collected conditioned medium (CM) and senescent MLO-Y4 cell-derived exosomes, which were then applied to MC3T3-E1 cells, separately, to evaluate their effects on osteogenic differentiation. Furthermore, we identified differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) between exosomes from senescent and normal MLO-Y4 cells by high-throughput RNA sequencing. Based on the key miRNAs that were discovered, the underlying mechanism by which senescent osteocytes regulate osteogenic differentiation was explored. Lastly, in the in vivo experiments, the effects of senescent MLO-Y4 cell-derived exosomes on age-related bone loss were evaluated in male SAMP6 mice, which excluded the effects of oestrogen, and the underlying mechanism was confirmed. Results The CM and exosomes collected from senescent MLO-Y4 cells inhibited osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. RNA sequencing detected significantly lower expression of miR-494-3p in senescent MLO-Y4 cell-derived exosomes compared with normal exosomes. The upregulation of exosomal miR-494-3p by miRNA mimics attenuated the effects of senescent MLO-Y4 cell-derived exosomes on osteogenic differentiation. Luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that miR-494-3p targeted phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), which is a negative regulator of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway. Overexpression of PTEN or inhibition of the PI3K/AKT pathway blocked the functions of exosomal miR-494-3p. In SAMP6 mice, senescent MLO-Y4 cell-derived exosomes accelerated bone loss, which was rescued by upregulation of exosomal miR-494-3p. Conclusion Reduced expression of miR-494-3p in senescent osteocyte-derived exosomes inhibits osteogenic differentiation and accelerates age-related bone loss via PTEN/PI3K/AKT pathway.

Abstract
Recently, more and more studies have revealed that iron overload can lead to osteoporosis by inducing oxidative stress. Niacin (NAN), also known as nicotinate or vitamin B3, has been confirmed to possess potent antioxidative effects. In addition, very little is currently known about the protective effects of NAN on iron overload in osteoporotic bone tissue. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the protective effect of niacin on iron overload-induced bone injury and to investigate the effect and underlying mechanisms of the niacin and iron overload on intracellular antioxidant properties. When MC3T3-E1 and RAW264.7 cells were cultured in the presence of ammonium ferric citrate(FAC), NAN therapy could increase the matrix mineralization and promote expression of osteogenic markers in MC3T3-E1, inhibit osteoclastic differentiation of RAW264.7 cells, while increasing intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and strengthening mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). In the ovariectomized (OVX) rat model, NAN had an obvious protective effect against iron-overloaded injury. Meanwhile, superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), intracellular antioxidant enzymes and silent information regulator type 1 (SIRT1), were up-regulated in response to NAN exposures in MC3T3-E1. Furthermore, SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 attenuated the protective effects of NAN. Results revealed that NAN could stimulate osteogenic differentiation, inhibit osteoclastic differentiation and markedly increased antioxidant properties in cells through the induction of SIRT1. Studies suggest that niacin is a promising agent for preventing bone loss in iron overload conditions.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:45. [PMID: 38200474 PMCID: PMC10777585 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-07159-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Alamandine is a newly characterized peptide of renin angiotensin system. Our study aims to investigate the osteo-preservative effects of alamandine, explore underlying mechanism and bring a potential preventive strategy for postmenopausal osteoporosis in the future. METHODS An ovariectomy (OVX)-induced rat osteoporosis model was established for in vivo experiments. Micro-computed tomography and three-point bending test were used to evaluate bone strength. Histological femur slices were processed for immunohistochemistry (IHC). Bone turnover markers and nitric oxide (NO) concentrations in serum were determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The mouse embryo osteoblast precursor (MC3T3-E1) cells were used for in vitro experiments. The cell viability was analysed with a Cell Counting Kit‑8. We performed Alizarin Red S staining and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay to observe the differentiation status of osteoblasts. Western blotting was adopted to detect the expression of osteogenesis related proteins and AMP-activated protein kinase/endothelial nitric oxide synthase (AMPK/eNOS) in osteoblasts. DAF-FM diacetate was used for semi-quantitation of intracellular NO. RESULTS In OVX rats, alamandine alleviated osteoporosis and maintained bone strength. The IHC showed alamandine increased osteocalcin and collagen type I α1 (COL1A1) expression. The ELISA revealed alamandine decreased bone turnover markers and restored NO level in serum. In MC3T3-E1 cells, alamandine promoted osteogenic differentiation. Western blotting demonstrated that alamandine upregulated the expression of osteopontin, Runt-related transcription factor 2 and COL1A1. The intracellular NO was also raised by alamandine. Additionally, the activation of AMPK/eNOS axis mediated the effects of alamandine on MC3T3-E1 cells and bone tissue. PD123319 and dorsomorphin could repress the regulating effect of alamandine on bone metabolism. CONCLUSION Alamandine attenuates ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis by promoting osteogenic differentiation via AMPK/eNOS axis.

Food Sci Nutr 2024; 12:340-353.

Abstract
There is an inseparable link between bone metabolism and gut microbiota, and the supplementation of probiotics exhibits a significant role in maintaining the homeostasis of gut microbiota and inhibiting bone loss. This study aims to explore the preventive and therapeutic potentials and the specific mechanisms of Rothia on osteoporosis. The mice models of osteoporosis induced by ovariectomy (OVX) were built, and the regular (once a day) and quantitative (200 μL/d) gavage of Rothia was performed for 8 weeks starting from 1 week after OVX. Microcomputed tomography was used to analyze the bone mass and bone microstructure of mice in each group after sacrifice. Histological staining and immunohistochemistry were then applied to identify the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, intestinal permeability, and osteogenic and osteoclastic activities of mice. The collected feces of mice in each group were used for 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing to detect the alterations in composition, abundance, and diversity of gut microbiota. This study demonstrated that the gavage of Rothia alleviated bone loss in mice with OVX-induced osteoporosis, improved OVX-induced intestinal mucosal barrier injury, optimized intestinal permeability (zonula occludens protein 1 and occludin), reduced intestinal inflammation (tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β), and regulated imbalance of gut microbiota. Based on "gut-bone" axis, this study revealed that regular and quantitative gavage of Rothia can relieve bone loss in mice with OVX-induced osteoporosis by repairing the intestinal mucosal barrier injury, optimizing the intestinal permeability, inhibiting the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and improving the disorder of gut microbiota.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC-Exos) are considered as candidates for osteoporosis (OP) therapy. Estrogen is critical in the maintenance of bone homeostasis. However, the role of estrogen and/or its receptor in BMSC-Exos treatment of OP, as well as its methods of regulation during this process remain unclear. METHODS BMSCs were cultured and characterized. Ultracentrifugation was performed to collect BMSC-Exos. Transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and western blotting were used to identify BMSC-Exos. We examined the effects of BMSC-Exos on the proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, mineralization, and cell cycle distribution of MG-63 cells. The protein expression of estrogen receptor α (ERα) and the phosphorylation of ERK were investigated through western blotting. We determined the effects of BMSC-Exos on the prevention of bone loss in female rats. The female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: the sham group, ovariectomized (OVX) group, and the OVX + BMSC-Exos group. Bilateral ovariectomy was performed in the OVX and OVX + BMSC-Exos groups, while a similar volume of adipose tissue around the ovary was removed in the sham group. The rats in OVX group and OVX + BMSC-Exos group were given PBS or BMSC-Exos after 2 weeks of surgery. Micro-CT scanning and histological staining were used to evaluate the in vivo effects of BMSC-Exos. RESULTS BMSC-Exos significantly enhanced the proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity, and the Alizarin red S staining in MG-63 cells. The results of cell cycle distribution demonstrated that BMSC-Exos increased the proportion of cells in the G2 + S phase and decreased the proportion of cells in the G1 phase. Moreover, PD98059, an inhibitor of ERK, inhibited both the activation of ERK and the expression of ERα, which were promoted by administration of BMSC-Exos. Micro-CT scan showed that in the OVX + BMSC-Exos group, bone mineral density, bone volume/tissue volume fraction, trabecular number were significantly upregulated. Additionally, the microstructure of the trabecular bone was preserved in the OVX + BMSC-Exos group compared to that in the OVX group. CONCLUSION BMSC-Exos showed an osteogenic-promoting effect both in vitro and in vivo, in which ERK-ERα signaling might play an important role.

Abstract
Recently, Deferoxamine (DFO) and magnesium (Mg) have been identified as critical factors for angiogenesis and bone formation. However, in current research studies, there is a lack of focus on whether DFO plus Mg can affect the regeneration of β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) in osteoporosis and through what biological mechanisms. Therefore, the present work was aimed to preparation and evaluate the effect of Deferoxamine/magnesium modified β-tricalcium phosphate promotes (DFO/Mg-TCP) in ovariectomized rats model and preliminary exploration of possible mechanisms. The MC3T3-E1 cells were co-cultured with the exudate of DFO/Mg-TCP and induced to osteogenesis, and the cell viability, osteogenic activity were observed by Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8), Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) staining, Alizarin Red Staining (RES) and Western Blot. In vitro experiments, CCK-8, ALP and ARS staining results show that the mineralization and osteogenic activity of MC3T3-E1increased significantly after intervention by DFO/Mg-TCP, as well as a higher levels of protein expressions including VEGF, OC, Runx-2 and HIF-1α. In vivo experiment, Micro-CT and Histological analysis evaluation show that DFO/Mg-TCP treatment presented the stronger effect on bone regeneration, bone mineralization and biomaterial degradation, when compared with OVX+Mg-TCP group and OVX+TCP group, as well as a higher VEGF, OC, Runx-2 and HIF-1α gene expression. The present study indicates that treatment with DFO/Mg-TCP was associated with increased regeneration by enhancing the function of osteoblasts in an OVX rat.

Abstract
Aims This study examined whether systemic administration of melatonin would have different effects on osseointegration in ovariectomized (OVX) rats, depending on whether this was administered during the day or night. Methods In this study, a titanium rod was implanted in the medullary cavity of one femoral metaphysis in OVX rats, and then the rats were randomly divided into four groups: Sham group (Sham, n = 10), OVX rat group (OVX, n = 10), melatonin day treatment group (OVX + MD, n = 10), and melatonin night treatment group (OVX + MN, n = 10). The OVX + MD and OVX + MN rats were treated with 30 mg/kg/day melatonin at 9 am and 9 pm, respectively, for 12 weeks. At the end of the research, the rats were killed to obtain bilateral femora and blood samples for evaluation. Results Micro-CT and histological evaluation showed that the bone microscopic parameters of femoral metaphysis trabecular bone and bone tissue around the titanium rod in the OVX + MD group demonstrated higher bone mineral density, bone volume fraction, trabecular number, connective density, trabecular thickness, and lower trabecular speculation (p = 0.004) than the OVX + MN group. Moreover, the biomechanical parameters of the OVX + MD group showed higher pull-out test and three-point bending test values, including fixation strength, interface stiffness, energy to failure, energy at break, ultimate load, and elastic modulus (p = 0.012) than the OVX + MN group. In addition, the bone metabolism index and oxidative stress indicators of the OVX + MD group show lower values of Type I collagen cross-linked C-telopeptide, procollagen type 1 N propeptide, and malondialdehyde (p = 0.013), and higher values of TAC and SOD (p = 0.002) compared with the OVX + MN group. Conclusion The results of our study suggest that systemic administration with melatonin at 9 am may improve the initial osseointegration of titanium rods under osteoporotic conditions more effectively than administration at 9 pm.

JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2022; 33:62. [PMID: 36057883 PMCID: PMC9441422 DOI: 10.1007/s10856-022-06684-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 05/06/2023]
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of Silibinin (SIL)-modified Hydroxyapatite coating on osseointegration in diabetes in vivo and in vitro and explore the mechanism of osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1. RT-qPCR, Immunofluorescence, and Western blot were used to measure the expression level of oxidative Stress Indicators and osteogenic markers proteins. Moreover, CCK-8 assay was conducted to detect cell viability in hyperglycemia. Alizarin red staining and alkaline phosphatase staining were used to examine osteogenic function and calcium deposits. The diabetic rat model receive titanium rod implantation was set up successfully and Von-Gieson staining was used to examine femoral bone tissue around titanium rod. Our results showed that intracellular oxidative stress in hyperglycemia was overexpressed, while FoxO1, SIRT1, GPX1, and SOD2 were downregulated. SIL suppressed oxidative stress to promote osteogenic differentiation. Additionally, it was confirmed that SIL promoted osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 and obviously restored the osseointegration ability of diabetic rats. Further study indicated that SIL exerted its beneficial function through activation SIRT1/SOD2 signaling pathway to restore osteoblast function, and improved the osseointegration and stability of titanium rods in vivo. Our research suggested that the SIL-modulated oxidative Stress inhibition is responsible for the activation of the process of osteogenic differentiation through activation SIRT1/SOD2 signaling pathway in hyperglycemia, providing a novel insight into improving prosthetic osseointegration in diabetic patients. Hyperglycemia impaired the activity and function of MC3T3-E1 and inhibits bone formation by up-regulating intracellular ROS levels through inhibition of SIRT1/SOD2 signaling pathway. Local administrator SIL can improve the activity and function of osteoblasts and enhance osseointegration by reducing intracellular ROS through activation of SIRT1/SOD2 signaling pathway in DM rat models.

Functionalization with Polyphenols of a Nano-Textured Ti Surface through a High-Amino Acid Medium: A Chemical-Physical and Biological Characterization. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:2916. [PMID: 36079954 PMCID: PMC9458157 DOI: 10.3390/nano12172916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Revised: 08/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The study aimed to identify an effective mechanism of adsorption of polyphenols on a nano-textured Ti surface and to evaluate the osteogenic differentiation on it. The source of polyphenols was a natural extract from red grape pomace. A chemical etching was used to form an oxide layer with a nanoscale texture on Ti; this layer is hydrophilic, but without hydroxyl groups with high acidic-basic chemical reactivity. The samples were characterized by electron and fluorescence microscopies, UV-Vis spectroscopy, contact angle measurements, zeta potential titration curves, and Folin-Ciocâlteu test. The presence of an adsorbed layer of polyphenols on the functionalized surface, maintaining redox ability, was confirmed by several tests. Consistent with the surface features, the adsorption was maximized by dissolving the extract in a high-amino acid medium, with respect to an inorganic solution, exploiting the high affinity of amino acids for polyphenols and for porous titanium surfaces. The osteogenic differentiation was assessed on an osteoblastic cell line by immunofluorescence, cell viability, expression of key osteoblast markers, and extracellular matrix mineralization. The surfaces functionalized with the extract diluted in the range 1 × 10-5-1 mg/mL resulted in having a greater osteogenic activity for the highest concentration, with lower values of cell viability; higher expression of alkaline phosphatase, bone sialoprotein, and collagen; and lower levels of osteopontin. In conclusion, the functionalization of a nano-textured Ti surface with polyphenols can potentially favor the osteogenic activity of osseointegrated implants.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The objectives of the present study were to determine whether simvastatin (SIM) could reverse the harmful effects on titanium rod osseointegration in ovariectomized rats fed high-fat diet (HFD). MATERIALS AND METHODS Ovariectomized female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated to three groups and received SIM treatment plus HFD for 12 weeks. We then evaluated the microstructure parameters, histological parameters, biomechanical parameters, bone turnover, and blood lipid level. RESULTS After 12 weeks of treatment, SIM can significantly improve bone formation around the titanium rod and osseointegration including higher values of maximum push-out force, bone area ratio (BAR), bone-to-implant contact (BIC), bone mineral density (BMD), bone volume (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), mean connective density (Conn.D) when compared with the HFD group. In addition, system administration of SIM showed positive effects on collagen type 1 cross-linked C-telopeptide (CTX-1), procollagen I N-terminal propeptide (PINP), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TGL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. Compared with the HFD group, lower values of CTX-1, P1NP, TC, TGL and LDL were observed in the SIM+HFD group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our findings revealed that HFD may have an adverse effect on osseointegration in osteoporotic conditions, and the harmful effect of HFD on osseointegration could be reversed by SIM.

Abstract
Despite advances in the pathogenesis of Tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) on bone, the understanding of the effects and mechanisms of bone osseointegration in TUDCA-associated Hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium implants remains poor. Therefore, the present work was aimed to evaluate the effect of local administration with TUDCA on HA-coated titanium implants osseointegration in ovariectomized(OVX) rats and further investigation of the possible mechanism. Twelve weeks after bilateral ovariectomy, all animals were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation(Sham) group, OVX group and TUDCA group, and all the rats from Sham group and OVX group received HA implants and animals belonging to group TUDCA received TUDCA-HA implants until death at 12 weeks. The bilateral femurs of rats were harvested for evaluation. TUDCA increased new bone formation around the surface of titanium rods and push-out force other than group OVX. Histology, Micro-CT and biochemical analysis results showed systemic TUDCA showed positive effects than OVX group on bone formation in osteopenic rats, with beneficial effect on via activation OPG/RANKL pathway and BMP-2/Smad1 pathway and microarchitecture as well as by reducing protein expression of TNF-α and IFN-γ. The present study suggests that local use of TUDCA may bring benefits to the osseointegration of HA-coated titanium implants in patients with osteoporosis, and this effect may be related to the inhibition of inflammatory reaction and promotion of osteogenesis.

Abstract
The present work was aimed to evaluate the effect of different administration modes of sodium valproate (VPA) on bone strength, bone mass and bone mineral density in ovariectomized (OVX) rats and further investigation of the possible mechanism. 60 female SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: Sham group (Sham, n = 15), OVX group (OVX, n = 15), OVX rats received intermittent VPA treatment group (IVPA, n = 15) and OVX rats received daily VPA treatment group (EVPA, n = 15). After 12 weeks of treatment, the rats were sacrificed, and serum and femur samples were harvested. DEXA, Micro-CT, history, biomechanical testing, biochemical index and western blot analysis were used to observe the therapeutic effect and explore the possible mechanism. Micro-CT and DEXA analysis of bones revealed better BMD and higher BV/TV, Tb. Th, Tb. N, Conn. D and lower Tb. Sp at femoral metaphysis evaluated in IVPA when compared with OVX and EVPA group (P < 0.05). Histological, fluorescent analysis and biological strength revealed more trabecular bone and higher relative mineral apposition rate, maximal load, elastic modulus and energy at break with evaluated in IVPA when compared with OVX and EVPA group (P < 0.05). The levels of P1NP, estrogen, CTX, TRAP-5b and RANKL of the IVPA group showed a significant increase when compared with the OVX and EVPA group (P < 0.05). We confirm adverse effects on protein expressions including Notch1, Jagged1, HEY1, Wnt 1, β-catenin and RUNX2 following daily VPA treatment in OVX female rats. Our current study demonstrated that intermittent administration of sodium valproate has a protective effect on bone health in OVX rats and these effects may be achieved by activating Notch/Wnt/β-catenin/RUNX2 signal axis.
