Abstract
Haemophilia A (HA) and haemophilia B (HB) are X-linked inherited bleeding disorders caused by the absence or deficiency of coagulation factors VIII (FVIII) and IX (FIX), respectively. Recent advances in the development of effective treatments for haemophilia have led to a significant increase in life expectancy. As a result, the incidence of some comorbidities, including fragility fractures, has increased in people with haemophilia (PWH). The aim of our research was to perform a review of the literature investigating the pathogenesis and multidisciplinary management of fractures in PWH. The PubMed, Scopus and Cochrane Library databases were searched to identify original research articles, meta-analyses, and scientific reviews on fragility fractures in PWH. The mechanism underlying bone loss in PWH is multifactorial and includes recurrent joint bleeding, reduced physical activity with consequent reduction in mechanical load, nutritional deficiencies (particularly vitamin D), and FVIII and FIX deficiency. Pharmacological treatment of fractures in PWH includes antiresorptive, anabolic and dual action drugs. When conservative management is not possible, surgery is the preferred option, particularly in severe arthropathy, and rehabilitation is a key component in restoring function and maintaining mobility. Appropriate multidisciplinary fracture management and an adapted and tailored rehabilitation pathway are essential to improve the quality of life of PWH and prevent long-term complications. Further clinical trials are needed to improve the management of fractures in PWH.

Fibrin glue does not promote migration and proliferation of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells in collagenic membranes: an in vitro study. Sci Rep 2022; 12:20660. [PMID: 36450814 PMCID: PMC9712600 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-25203-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Accepted: 11/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
During Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis (AMIC), the membrane is often glued into the chondral defect. However, whether fibrin glue influences cells proliferation and migration remain unclear. This study evaluated the impact of fibrin glue addition to biologic membranes loaded with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (B-MSCs). A porcine derived collagen membrane (Cartimaix, Matricel GmbH, Germany) was used. B-MSCs were harvested from three different unrelated donors. The membranes were embedded in mounting medium with DAPI (ABCAM, Cambridge, UK) and analysed at 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 6-, and at 8-week follow-up. The DAPI ties the DNA of the cell nucleus, emitting blue fluorescence. DAPI/nuclei signals were analysed with fluorescence microscopy at 100-fold magnification. The group without fibrin glue demonstrated greater migration of the B-MSCs within the membrane at week 4 (P < 0.001), 6 (P < 0.001), and 8 (P < 0.001). No difference was found at week 1, 2, and 3. The group without fibrin glue demonstrated greater proliferation of B-MSCs within the membrane. These differences were significant at week 1 (P = 0.02), 2 (P = 0.008), 3 (P = 0.0009), 4 (P < 0.0001), 6 (P < 0.0001), 8 (P < 0.0001). Concluding, in the present setting, the use of fibrin in a collagenic biomembrane impairs B-MSCs proliferation and migration in vitro.

Abstract
Introduction: It is unclear whether the type of membrane used for matrix-assisted autologous chondrocyte implantation (mACI) influences results. A systematic review was conducted to investigate the midterm results of the three most common types of membrane fixation for mACI. Methods: This systematic review was conducted according to the 2020 PRISMA checklist. PubMed, Google Scholar, Embase, and Scopus online databases were accessed in August 2022. All the prospective clinical trials reporting outcomes of mACI in the knee were considered. Studies that describe the modality of membrane fixation (glued, glued, and sutured, no fixation) used for mACI were eligible. Studies that conducted a minimum of 12 months of follow-up were considered. The outcomes of interest were the Tegner Activity Scale and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score. The rate of failure and revisions were also collected. Results: Data from 26 studies (1539 procedures; 554 of 1539 (36%) were women) were retrieved. The mean follow-up was 42.6 (12 to 84) months. No difference between the groups was found in terms of mean duration of symptoms, age, BMI, gender, and defect size (P > 0.1). No difference was found in terms of the Tegner score (P = 0.3). When no fixation was used, a statistically significant higher IKDC compared to the other groups (P = 0.02) was evidenced. No difference was found in the rate of failure (P = 0.1). The no-fixation group evidenced a statistically significant lower rate of revisions (P = 0.02). Conclusions: No membrane fixation for mACI in the knee scored better than the fastening techniques at the midterm follow-up.

Abstract
Background Some authors secured the membrane during matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (mACI) with fibrin glue or did not use a formal fixation. The real impact of fibrin glue addition on chondrocytes migration and proliferation has not yet been clarified. This study evaluated the impact of fibrin glue on a chondrocyte loaded collagenic membrane. Methods A resorbable collagen I/III porcine derived membrane commonly employed in AMIC was used for all experiments. Chondrocytes from three difference donors were used. At 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 6-, and at 8-week the membranes were embedded in Mounting Medium with Dapi (ABCAM, Cambridge, UK). The Dapi contained in the mounting medium ties the DNA of the cell nucleus and emits a blue fluorescence. In this way, the spreading of the cells in the membrane can be easily monitored. The outcomes of interest were to evaluate (1) cell migration and (2) cell proliferation within the porous membrane layer. DAPI/nuclei signals were analysed with fluorescence microscope under a magnification of 100-fold. Results The no-fibrin group demonstrated greater migration of the cells within the membrane. Although migration resulted higher in the no-fibrin group at every follow-up, this difference was significant only at week 1 (P < 0.001), 2 (P = 0.004), and 3 (P = 0.03). No difference was found at week 3, 6, and 8. The no-fibrin group demonstrated greater proliferation of the chondrocytes within the membrane. These differences were significant at week 4 (P < 0.0001), 6 (P < 0.0001), 8 (P < 0.0001). Conclusion The use of fibrin glue over a resorbable membrane leads to lower in vitro proliferation and migration of chondrocytes.

Abstract
Focal chondral defects of the knee are common and their management is challenging. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis (AMIC) for focal chondral defects of the knee. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted (according to the 2020 PRISMA statement) to investigate the efficacy of AMIC in improving symptoms and to compare AMIC versus microfracture (MFx). In January 2022, the following databases were accessed: Pubmed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Embase. No time constrain was used for the search. All the clinical trials investigating AMIC and/or those comparing AMIC versus MFx for focal chondral defects of the knee were accessed. Only studies published in peer reviewed journals were considered. Studies which investigated other locations of the defects rather than knee were not eligible, nor those reporting data form mixed locations. Studies which reported data on revision settings, as well as those investigating efficacy on kissing lesions or multiple locations, were not suitable. The mean difference (MD) and odd ratio (OR) effect measure were used for continuous and binary data, respectively. Data from 18 studies (548 patients) were retrieved with a mean follow-up of 39.9 ± 26.5 months. The mean defect size was 3.2 ± 1.0 cm2. The visual analogue scale (VAS) decreased of − 3.9/10 (95% confidence interval (CI) − 4.0874 to -3.7126), the Tegner Activity Scale increased of + 0.8/10 (95% CI 0.6595 to 0.9405). The Lysholm Knee Scoring System increased of + 28.9/100 (95% CI 26.8716 to 29.1284), as did the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) + 33.6/100 (95% CI 32.5800 to 34.6200). At last follow-up no patient showed signs of hypertrophy. 4.3% (9 of 210) of patients underwent revision procedures. The rate of failure was 3.8% (9 of 236). Compared to MFx, AMIC demonstrated lower VAS score (MD: − 1.01; 95% CI − 1.97 to 0.05), greater IKDC (MD: 11.80; 95% CI 6.65 to 16.94), and lower rate of revision (OR: 0.16; 95% CI 0.06 to 0.44). AMIC is effective for focal chondral defects of the knee. Furthermore, AMIC evidenced greater IKDC, along with a lower value of VAS and rate of revision compared to MFx.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metastatic prostate cancer lesions in the skeleton are frequently characterized by excessive formation of bone. Prostate cancer cells secrete factors, including serine proteases, that are capable of influencing the behavior of surrounding cells. Some of these proteases activate protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR2 ), which is expressed by osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) and precursors of osteoclasts (bone-resorbing cells). The aim of the current study was to investigate a possible role for PAR2 in regulating the behavior of bone cells exposed to metastatic prostate cancer cells. METHODS The effect of medium conditioned by the PC3, DU145, and MDA-PCa-2b prostate cancer cell lines was investigated in assays of bone cell function using cells isolated from wildtype and PAR2 -null mice. Osteoclast differentiation was assessed by counting tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive multinucleate cells in bone marrow cultured in osteoclastogenic medium. Osteoblasts were isolated from calvariae of neonatal mice, and BrdU incorporation was used to assess their proliferation. Assays of alkaline phosphatase activity and quantitative PCR analysis of osteoblastic gene expression were used to assess osteoblast differentiation. Responses of osteoblasts to medium conditioned by MDA-PCa-2b cells were analyzed by RNAseq. RESULTS Conditioned medium (CM) from all three cell lines inhibited osteoclast differentiation independently of PAR2 . Media from PC3 and DU145 cells had no effect on assays of osteoblast function. Medium conditioned by MDA-PCa-2b cells stimulated BrdU incorporation in both wildtype and PAR2 -null osteoblasts but increased alkaline phosphatase activity and Runx2 and Col1a1 expression in wildtype but not PAR2 -null cells. Functional enrichment analysis of RNAseq data identified enrichment of multiple gene ontology terms associated with lysosomal function in both wildtype and PAR2 -null cells in response to MDA-PCa-2b-CM. Analysis of individual genes identified osteogenesis-associated genes that were either upregulated by MDA-PCa-2b-CM selectively in wildtype cells or downregulated selectively in PAR2 -null cells. CONCLUSIONS Factors secreted by prostate cancer cells influence bone cell behavior through both PAR2 -dependent and -independent mechanisms. Both PAR2 -independent suppression of osteoclast differentiation and PAR2 -dependent stimulation of osteogenesis are likely to determine the nature of prostate cancer metastases in bone.

Abstract
Objective To review the current knowledge on bone health in patients with hemophilia A and the underlying pathogenetic mechanisms. Data Sources Original research articles, meta-analyses, and scientific reviews. Data Synthesis Already in childhood, patients with hemophilia A are prone to low bone mineral density, leading to osteopenia and/or osteoporosis. Initially associated with the life style of hemophilia, today we are faced with accumulating evidence that coagulation factor VIII is involved directly or indirectly in bone physiology. Conclusion Understanding the role of factor VIII and the mechanisms of decreased bone mineral density in hemophilia A is critically important, especially as non-factor replacement therapies are available, and treatment decisions potentially impact bone health.

Abstract
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) give rise to osteoblasts and adipocytes, with an inverse relationship between the two. The MSCs from protease-activated receptor-2 knockout (PAR2 KO) mice have a reduced capacity to generate osteoblasts. Here we describe the observation that PAR2 KO osteoblastic cultures generate more adipocytes than wildtype (WT) cultures. Osteoblasts from PAR2 KO mice expressed lower levels of osteoblastic genes (Runx2, Col1a1 and Bglap), and higher levels of the adipocytic gene Pparg than WT osteoblasts. Bone marrow stromal cells from PAR2 KO mice generated fewer osteoblastic colonies (assessed by staining for alkaline phosphatase activity and mineral deposition) and more adipocytic (Oil Red-O positive) colonies than cultures from WT mice. Similarly, cultures of the bone marrow stromal cell line (Kusa 4b10) in which PAR2 was knocked down (F2rl1 KD), were less osteoblastic and more adipocytic than vector control cells. Putative regulators of PAR2-mediated osteogenesis and suppression of adipogenesis were identified in an RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) investigation; these include C1qtnf3, Gpr35, Grem1, Snorc and Tcea3, which were more highly expressed, and Cnr1, Enpep, Hmgn5, Il6 and Ramp3 which were expressed at lower levels, in control than in F2rl1 KD cells. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were higher in medium harvested from F2rl1 KD cells than from control cells, and a neutralising anti-IL-6 antibody reduced the number of adipocytes in F2rl1 KD cultures to that of control cultures. Thus, PAR2 appears to be a mediator of the reciprocal relationship between osteogenesis and adipogenesis, with IL-6 having a regulatory role in these PAR2-mediated effects.

Abstract
Osteopenia and osteoporosis have increasingly become a recognized morbidity in those persons with hemophilia (PwH) receiving inadequate prophylactic clotting factor replacement. Animal models can control or eliminate genetic and environmental factors and allow for invasive testing not clinically permissible. Here, we describe the skeletal phenotype of juvenile and adult male mice with a genetically engineered deficiency in coagulation factor IX (FIX KO). Although the somatic growth of FIX KO mice matched that of their wild-type (WT) littermates at 10 and 20 weeks of age, the FIX KO mice displayed reduced bone mineral density (BMD), reduced cortical and cancellous bone mass, and diminished whole bone fracture resistance. These findings coupled with parallel observations in a murine model of hemophilia A (FVIII deficiency) point to an effector downstream of the coagulation cascade that is necessary for normal skeletal development. Further study of potential mechanisms underlying the bone disease observed in rare clotting factor deficiency syndromes may lead to new diagnostic and therapeutic insights for metabolic bone diseases in general.

Abstract
The catabolic and destructive activity of serine proteases in arthritic joints is well known; however, these enzymes can also signal pain and inflammation in joints. For example, thrombin, trypsin, tryptase, and neutrophil elastase cleave the extracellular N-terminus of a family of G protein-coupled receptors and the remaining tethered ligand sequence then binds to the same receptor to initiate a series of molecular signalling processes. These protease activated receptors (PARs) pervade multiple tissues and cells throughout joints where they have the potential to regulate joint homeostasis. Overall, joint PARs contribute to pain, inflammation, and structural integrity by altering vascular reactivity, nociceptor sensitivity, and tissue remodelling. This review highlights the therapeutic potential of targeting PARs to alleviate the pain and destructive nature of elevated proteases in various arthritic conditions.

Abstract
Hemophilia is caused by a lack of antihemophilic factor(s), for example, factor VIII (FVIII; hemophilia A) and factor IX (FIX; hemophilia B). Low bone mass is widely reported in epidemiological studies of hemophilia, and patients with hemophilia are at an increased risk of fracture. The detailed etiology of bone homeostasis imbalance in hemophilia is unclear. Clinical and experimental studies show that FVIII and FIX are involved in bone remodeling. However, it is likely that antihemophilic factors affect bone biology through thrombin pathways rather than via their own intrinsic properties. In addition, among patients with hemophilia, there are pathophysiological processes in several systems that might contribute to bone loss. This review summarizes studies on the association between hemophilia and bone remodeling, and might shed light on the challenges facing the care and prevention of osteoporosis and fracture in patients with hemophilia.

Hemophilia A and B mice, but not VWF -/-mice, display bone defects in congenital development and remodeling after injury. Sci Rep 2019; 9:14428. [PMID: 31594977 PMCID: PMC6783554 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-50787-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2018] [Accepted: 09/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
While joint damage is the primary co-morbidity of hemophilia, osteoporosis and osteopenia are also observed. Coagulation factor VIII deficient (FVIII−/−) mice develop an osteoporotic phenotype in the absence of induced hemarthrosis that is exacerbated two weeks after an induced joint injury. Here we have compared comprehensively the bone health of clotting factor VIII, factor IX, and Von Willebrand Factor knockout (FVIII−/−, FIX−/−, and VWF−/− respectively) mice both in the absence of joint hemorrhage and following induced joint injury. We found FVIII−/− and FIX−/− mice, but not VWF−/− mice, developmentally have an osteoporotic phenotype. Unilateral induced hemarthrosis causes further bone damage in both FVIII−/− and FIX−/− mice, but has little effect on VWF−/− bone health, indicating that the FVIII.VWF complex is not required for normal bone remodeling in vivo. To further investigate the bone healing following hemarthrosis in hemophilia we examined a two week time course using microCT, serum chemistry, and histological analysis. Elevated ratio of osteoprotegerin (OPG)/receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL), increased osterix+ osteoblastic cells, and decreased smoothness of the cortical bone surface were evident within several days of injury, indicative of acute heterotopic mineralization along the cortical surface. This was closely followed by increased interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, increased osteoclast numbers, and significant trabecular bone loss. Uncoupled and disorganized bone formation and resorption continued for the duration of the study resulting in significant deterioration of the joint. Further elucidation of the shared mechanisms underlying abnormal bone homeostasis in the absence of FVIII or FIX is needed to guide evidence-based approaches to the screening and treatment of the prevalent bone defects in hemophilia A and B.

Abstract
Chronic periodontitis is characterised by gingival inflammation and alveolar bone loss. A major aetiological agent is Porphyromonas gingivalis, which secretes proteases that activate protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2 ). PAR2 expressed on oral keratinocytes is activated by proteases released by P. gingivalis, inducing secretion of interleukin 6 (IL-6), and global knockout of PAR2 prevents bone loss and inflammation in a periodontal disease model in mice. To test the hypothesis that PAR2 expressed on gingival keratinocytes is required for periodontal disease pathology, keratinocyte-specific PAR2 -null mice were generated using K14-Cre targeted deletion of the PAR2 gene (F2rl1). These mice were subjected to a model of periodontitis involving placement of a ligature around a tooth, combined with P. gingivalis infection ("Lig + Inf"). The intervention caused a significant 44% decrease in alveolar bone volume (assessed by microcomputed tomography) in wildtype (K14-Cre:F2rl1wt/wt ), but not littermate keratinocyte-specific PAR2 -null (K14-Cre:F2rl1fl/fl ) mice. Keratinocyte-specific ablation of PAR2 prevented the significant Lig + Inf-induced increase (2.8-fold) in the number of osteoclasts in alveolar bone and the significant up-regulation (2.4-4-fold) of the inflammatory markers IL-6, IL-1β, interferon-γ, myeloperoxidase, and CD11b in gingival tissue. These data suggest that PAR2 expressed on oral epithelial cells is a critical regulator of periodontitis-induced bone loss and will help in designing novel therapies with which to treat the disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bone remodeling relies on a delicate balance between formation and resorption of bone tissues, processes in which bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts play central roles. Recently, we reported that anticoagulant activated protein C (APC) promotes osteoblast proliferation, but the role of the blood coagulation system in bone remodeling remains unclear. In this study, to further elucidate the relationship between bone remodeling and blood coagulation, we investigated the effect of APC on osteoclast differentiation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Normal human osteoclast precursor cells were cultured in their growth medium including soluble RANKL, M-CSF, and FBS, and on days 4 and 7, the culture medium was replaced with the same medium containing various concentrations of APC, protein C (PC), sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor agonist, FTY720, or APC+various substances without FBS. On day 8, TRAP-positive multinucleated cells (≥3 nuclei) were counted manually using a light microscope. The effects of APC on NF-κB and NFATc1 activation were evaluated using specific ELISA. RESULTS APC suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation, and this APC-induced suppression of osteoclast differentiation was inhibited by zymogen protein C and aprotinin, a serine protease inhibitor. Immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR analyses suggested that endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR) and protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) were expressed in osteoclast precursor cells and osteoclasts. Both anti-PAR-1 antibody and anti-EPCR antibody (RCR-252), which blocks APC binding to EPCR, inhibited the APC-induced suppression of osteoclast differentiation. FTY720 had no effect on osteoclast differentiation. However, FTY 720 and S1P receptor antagonist, VP 23019, inhibited the APC-induced suppression of osteoclast differentiation. On the other hand, recombinant soluble human ApoER2 and anti-human ApoER2 inhibited the APC-induced suppression of osteoclast differentiation. Further, APC had no effect on NF-κB and NFATc1 activation. CONCLUSIONS APC suppresses human osteoclast differentiation mainly by inhibiting the formation of multinucleated cells via EPCR, PAR-1, S1P receptor, and ApoER2 in a manner that depends on APC protease activity.

Abstract
Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a pathological phenomenon in which ectopic lamellar bone forms in soft tissues. HO involves many predisposing factors, including congenital and postnatal factors. Postnatal HO is usually induced by fracture, burn, neurological damage (brain injury and spinal cord injury) and joint replacement. Recent studies have found that patients who suffered from bone fracture combined with severe traumatic brain injury (S-TBI) are at a significantly increased risk for HO occurrence. Thus, considerable research focused on the influence of S-TBI on fracture healing and bone formation, as well as on the changes in various osteogenic factors with S-TBI occurrence. Brain damage promotes bone formation, but the exact mechanisms underlying bone formation and HO after S-TBI remain to be clarified. Hence, this article summarises the findings of previous studies on the relationship between S-TBI and HO and discusses the probable causes and mechanisms of HO caused by S-TBI. The translational potential of this article: A better understanding of the probable causes of traumatic brain injury-induced HO can provide new perspectives and ideas in preventing HO and may support to design more targeted therapies to reduce HO or enhance the bone formation.

Abstract
This case series study demonstrates the possibility of successful implant rehabilitation without bone augmentation in the atrophic posterior maxilla with cystic lesion in the sinus. Sinus lift without bone graft using the lateral approach was performed. In one patient, the cyst was aspirated and simultaneous implantation under local anesthesia was performed, whereas the other cyst was removed under general anesthesia, and the sinus membrane was elevated in a second process, followed by implantation. In both cases, tapered 11.5-mm-long implants were utilized. With all of the implants, good stability and appropriate bone height were achieved. The mean bone level gain was 5.73 mm; adequate bone augmentation around the implants was shown, the sinus floor was moved apically, and the cyst was no longer radiologically detected. Completion of all of the treatments required an average of 12.5 months. The present study showed that sufficient bone formation and stable implantation in a maxilla of insufficient bone volume are possible through sinus lift without bone materials. The results serve to demonstrate, moreover, that surgical treatment of mucous retention cyst can facilitate rehabilitation. These techniques can reduce the risk of complications related to bone grafts, save money, and successfully treat antral cyst.

Abstract
PURPOSE Intrasinus new bone formation (BF) has been observed after no-grafting osteotome sinus augmentation, and it is hypothesized to be influenced by the dimensions of the maxillary sinus. The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the influence of lateral-medial sinus width (SW) on no-grafting osteotome sinus augmentation outcomes using cone-beam computed tomography. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients recruited for this prospective study were treated with no-grafting osteotome sinus augmentation with simultaneous implant placement. Cone-beam computed tomography was obtained before, immediately after, and 6 months after the surgical procedure to use for measurements. Descriptive statistics were calculated and univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analysis were conducted to evaluate the influence of average SW and other relevant factors on procedure outcomes, including new BF, residual bone resorption (BR), and change of peri-implant bone height (CPBH). RESULTS A total of 48 implants placed in 32 elevated sinuses of 29 patients were included. The average SW was 11.3 ± 1.8 mm. Intrasinus BF measured 1.7 ± 0.9 mm at 6 months after surgery. The amount of BR was 0.3 ± 0.9 mm, and CPBH was calculated as 1.3 ± 1.3 mm. Multivariate analysis showed a negative correlation between SW and BF (r = -0.469, P = .001), as well as between SW and CPBH (r = -0.562, P = .001). A positive correlation was discovered between SW and BR (r = 0.311, P = .027) in general. CONCLUSIONS The lateral-medial SW was observed to have a negative correlation with new BF and CPBH after no-grafting osteotome sinus augmentation.

Abnormal joint and bone wound healing in hemophilia mice is improved by extending factor IX activity after hemarthrosis. Blood 2016; 129:2161-2171.

Abstract
Wound healing requires interactions between coagulation, inflammation, angiogenesis, cellular migration, and proliferation. Healing in dermal wounds of hemophilia B mice is delayed when compared with hemostatically normal wild-type (WT) mice, with abnormal persistence of iron deposition, inflammation, and neovascularity. We observed healing following induced joint hemorrhage in WT and factor IX (FIX) knockout (FIX-/-) mice, examining also parameters previously studied in an excisional skin wound model. Hemostatically normal mice tolerated this joint bleeding challenge, cleared blood from the joint, and healed with minimal pathology, even if additional autologous blood was injected intra-articularly at the time of wounding. Following hemarthrosis, joint wound healing in hemophilia B mice was impaired and demonstrated similar abnormal histologic features as previously described in hemophilic dermal wounds. Therefore, studies of pathophysiology and therapy of hemophilic joint bleeding performed in hemostatically normal animals are not likely to accurately reflect the healing defect of hemophilia. We additionally explored the hypothesis that the use of a FIX replacement protein with extended circulating FIX activity could improve synovial and osteochondral wound healing in hemophilic mice, when compared with treatment with unmodified recombinant FIX (rFIX) in the established joint bleeding model. Significantly improved synovial wound healing and preservation of normal osteochondral architecture are achieved by extending FIX activity after hemarthrosis using glycoPEGylated FIX when compared with an equivalent dose of rFIX. These results suggest that treating joint bleeding only until hemostasis is achieved may not result in optimal joint healing, which is improved by extending factor activity.

Abstract
BH3-only proteins are proapoptotic members of the broader Bcl-2 family, which promote cell death by directly or indirectly activating Bax and Bak. The expression of BH3-only proteins is regulated both transcriptionally and posttranscriptionally in a cell type-specific and a tissue-specific manner. Research over the last 20 years has provided significant insights into their roles in tissue homeostasis and various pathologies, which in turn has led to the development of novel therapeutics for numerous diseases. In this review, a snapshot of the progress over this period is given, including our current understanding of their regulation, mode of action, role in mammalian development, and pathology.

Abstract
The BH3-only Bim protein is a major determinant for initiating the intrinsic apoptotic pathway under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Tight regulation of its expression and activity at the transcriptional, translational and post-translational levels together with the induction of alternatively spliced isoforms with different pro-apoptotic potential, ensure timely activation of Bim. Under physiological conditions, Bim is essential for shaping immune responses where its absence promotes autoimmunity, while too early Bim induction eliminates cytotoxic T cells prematurely, resulting in chronic inflammation and tumor progression. Enhanced Bim induction in neurons causes neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Huntington's diseases. Moreover, type I diabetes is promoted by genetically predisposed elevation of Bim in β-cells. On the contrary, cancer cells have developed mechanisms that suppress Bim expression necessary for tumor progression and metastasis. This review focuses on the intricate network regulating Bim activity and its involvement in physiological and pathophysiological processes.

Abstract
Casein and soy protein were digested by papain to three degrees of hydrolysis (DH) 7.3%–13.3%, to obtain respective six casein and soy protein hydrolysates, aiming to clarify their in vitro proliferation and anti-apoptosis towards a human osteoblastic cell line (hFOB1.19 cells). Six casein and soy protein hydrolysates at five levels (0.01–0.2 mg/mL) mostly showed proliferation as positive 17β-estradiol did, because they conferred the osteoblasts with cell viability of 100%–114% and 104%–123%, respectively. The hydrolysates of higher DH values had stronger proliferation. Casein and soy protein hydrolysates of the highest DH values altered cell cycle progression, and enhanced cell proportion of S-phase from 50.5% to 56.5% and 60.5%. The two also antagonized etoposide- and NaF-induced osteoblast apoptosis. In apoptotic prevention, apoptotic cells were decreased from 31.6% to 22.6% and 15.6% (etoposide treatment), or from 19.5% to 17.7% and 12.4% (NaF treatment), respectively. In apoptotic reversal, soy protein hydrolysate decreased apoptotic cells from 13.3% to 11.7% (etoposide treatment), or from 14.5% to 11.0% (NaF treatment), but casein hydrolysate showed no reversal effect. It is concluded that the hydrolysates of two kinds had estradiol-like action on the osteoblasts, and soy protein hydrolysates had stronger proliferation and anti-apoptosis on the osteoblasts than casein hydrolysates.

Abstract
Proteinase-activated receptors (PARs) are a family of G protein-coupled receptor that are activated by extracellular cleavage of the receptor in the N-terminal domain. This slicing of the receptor exposes a tethered ligand which binds to a specific docking point on the receptor surface to initiate intracellular signalling. PARs are expressed by numerous tissues in the body, and they are involved in various physiological and pathological processes such as food digestion, tissue remodelling and blood coagulation. This chapter will summarise how serine proteinases activate PARs leading to the development of pain in several chronic pain conditions. The potential of PARs as a drug target for pain relief is also discussed.

Abstract
Thrombin stimulates expression of interleukin 6 and cyclooxygenase 2 by osteoblasts, both of which enhance osteoblast-mediated osteoclast differentiation by increasing the ratio of receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) expression to that of osteoprotegerin (OPG) in osteoblasts. We hypothesised that thrombin would also increase this ratio and thereby stimulate osteoclast differentiation in mixed cultures of osteoblastic cells and osteoclast precursors. In primary mouse osteoblasts, but not in bone marrow stromal cells, thrombin increased the ratio of RANKL to OPG expression. Thrombin inhibited differentiation of osteoclasts, defined as tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive cells with three or more nuclei, in mouse bone marrow cultures treated with osteoclastogenic hormones; this effect was not mediated by the major thrombin receptor, protease-activated receptor 1, nor did it require thrombin's proteolytic activity. Thrombin also caused a decrease in the number of TRAP-positive cells with fewer than three nuclei. Thrombin (active or inactive) also inhibited osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption, respectively, in cultures of mouse spleen cells and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells induced to undergo osteoclastogenesis by treatment with RANKL and macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Osteoclast differentiation in spleen cells was inhibited when they were exposed to thrombin from days 0 to 3 or 3 to 5 of culture but not days 5 to 7 when most fusion occurred. Thrombin inhibited expression of RANK by spleen cells. These observations indicate that, although thrombin stimulates production of osteoclastogenic factors by osteoblastic cells, it inhibits the early stages of RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation through a direct effect on osteoclast precursors that does not require thrombin's proteolytic activity.

Abstract
Fatigue loading causes a spatial distribution of osteocyte apoptosis co-localized with bone resorption spaces peaking around microdamage sites. Since osteocytes have been shown to regulate osteoclast formation and activity, we hypothesize that osteocyte apoptosis regulates osteoclastogenesis. In this study, we used serum-starvation to mimic reduced nutrient transport in microdamaged bone and induce apoptosis in MLO-Y4 osteocyte-like cells; conditioned medium was used to apply soluble factors released by apoptotic osteocytes (aOCY) to healthy non-apoptotic MLO-Y4 cells. Osteoclast precursor (RAW264.7 monocyte) migration and differentiation were assessed in the presence of conditioned media (CM) from: (A) aOCY, (B) osteocytes treated with apoptosis conditioned medium (i.e., healthy osteocytes in the presence of apoptosis cues; apoptosis CM-treated osteocytes (atOCY)), and (C) osteocytes treated with non-apoptosis conditioned medium (i.e., healthy osteocytes in the absence of apoptosis cues; non-apoptosis CM-treated osteocytes (natOCY)). Receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) mRNA, and protein expression were measured. Our findings indicate that soluble factors released by aOCY and atOCY promoted osteoclast precursor migration (up to 64% and 24% increase, respectively) and osteoclast formation (up to 450% and 265% increase, respectively). Osteoclast size increased up to 233% in the presence of aOCY and atOCY CM. Recruitment, formation and size were unaltered by natOCY. RANKL mRNA and protein expression were upregulated only in aOCY, while M-CSF and VEGF increased in atOCY. Addition of RANKL-blocking antibody abolished aOCY-induced osteoclast precursor migration and osteoclast formation. VEGF and M-CSF blocking antibodies abolished atOCY-induced osteoclastogenesis. These findings suggest that aOCY directly and indirectly (through atOCY) initiate targeted bone resorption by regulating osteoclast precursor recruitment and differentiation.

Abstract
The serum protein prothrombin (PT) is proteolytically converted to thrombin during the coagulation cascade by the cell-associated prothrombinase complex. In vitro, RANKL-differentiated osteoclasts express tissue factor and coagulation factor Xa, which convert PT to thrombin (Karlstrom et al. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 394:593-599, 2010). The present study investigated the localization of PT in bone as well as the expression of PT mRNA in bone and osteoclasts. Herein, immunoblot analysis detected PT and smaller proteolytically cleaved fragments with sizes consistent with the action of prothrombinase in a protein fraction extracted with guanidine-HCl EDTA from mouse tibia. Light microscopic and ultrastructural immunohistochemistry demonstrated the presence of PT in the newly formed bone matrix of the metaphysis. Furthermore, fluorescent immunohistochemistry on metaphyseal trabecular bone showed that PT colocalized with MMP-9-expressing subepiphyseal osteoclasts, whereas cathepsin K-expressing osteoclasts were closely associated with PT of the bone matrix. RT-qPCR analysis revealed that PT mRNA was detected in tibia. Expression of PT mRNA in the tibia was 0.2% of the level in the liver. In addition, PT mRNA expression was increased by RANKL-induced differentiation of bone marrow macrophages to osteoclasts. The results demonstrate that PT is synthesized and proteolytically processed in bone. Furthermore, PT is present mainly in the newly formed bone matrix of the metaphyseal trabecular bone compartment in close association to osteoclasts. In addition, MMP-9-positive osteoclasts contain PT, and PT expression is increased during osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
Thrombin exerts multiple effects upon osteoblasts including stimulating proliferation, and inhibiting osteoblast differentiation and apoptosis. Some of these effects are believed to be mediated by the synthesis and secretion of autocrine factors such as growth factors and cytokines. Many but not all cellular responses to thrombin are mediated by members of the protease-activated receptor (PAR) family of G protein-coupled receptors. The current study was undertaken to investigate the nature of thrombin's induction of autocrine factors by analysing the expression of twelve candidate genes in thrombin-stimulated primary mouse osteoblasts. Analysis by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) demonstrated that thrombin induced transforming growth factor beta, cyclooxygenase-2, tenascin C, fibroblast growth factor-1 and -2, connective tissue growth factor and interleukin-6 expression in wild type osteoblasts, but not PAR-1 null mouse osteoblasts. Induction of all the thrombin-responsive genes was blocked by the presence of the non-selective cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin. Further studies were conducted on interleukin-6, which was the gene that showed the greatest increase in expression following stimulation of osteoblast-like cells with thrombin. A PAR-1-specific activating peptide, but neither a PAR-4-activating peptide nor catalytically inactive thrombin induced release of interleukin-6 by osteoblasts. Furthermore, in the presence of the selective cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 inhibitors SC-560 and NS-398 thrombin-induced interleukin-6 release was prevented. Levels of both prostaglandin E(2) and interleukin-6 in medium conditioned by thrombin-stimulated osteoblast-like cells were found to be significantly increased compared to medium conditioned by non-stimulated cells, however release of prostaglandin E(2) was found to precede release of interleukin-6. Treatment of isolated osteoblast-like cells with a number of synthetic prostanoids stimulated secretion of interleukin-6 with differing potencies. These studies suggest that activation of PAR-1 on osteoblasts by thrombin induces cyclooxygenase activity, which in turn results in the increased expression of multiple secreted factors. The induction of these secreted factors may act in an autocrine fashion to alter osteoblast function, allowing these cells to participate in the earliest stages of bone healing by both autocrine and paracrine mechanisms.

Abstract
Intraoperative blood loss requiring allogenic blood transfusion (ABT) is a common problem in major orthopedic surgery. Since transfusion related side effects up to fatal consequences due to blood type incompatibility cannot be excluded completely, it is desirable to reduce the amount of blood loss and transfusions to a minimum. Encouraging results in the application of aprotinin, a natural protease-inhibitor with antifibrinolytic, bleeding-reducing properties, in thoracic-, heart- and abdominal surgery led to the use of aprotinin also in orthopedic surgery. One important safety issue in the use of aprotinin in orthopedic surgery is a possible negative effect on the osseous integration of an implant due to the multiple interactions of aprotinin with several enzymatic systems. In this study, we therefore investigated the influence of aprotinin on the osseous ingrowth of a titanium-implant in a rat model. Forty female Sprague-Dawley rats underwent unilateral retrograde nailing of the femur. Animals were divided in two groups, one receiving i.v. aprotinin intraoperatively, the other group receiving the same amount as saline solution. After 56 days animals were killed and from each group half of the femora were prepared for biomechanical testing, the other half for histological examination. The push-out experiment revealed no significant difference between the aprotinin-group and the control-group, both showing comparable shear stresses. In addition, the histomorphometrical analysis showed comparable implant integration between both groups. The results demonstrate that perioperative aprotinin application has no negative effect on osseous implant integration in a rat model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Thrombin influences the biological behavior of periodontal ligament cells and plays multiple roles in the early stages of bone healing. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is one of the key molecules that regulate bone homeostasis and prevent osteoclastogenesis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biological effects of thrombin on OPG synthesis in human periodontal ligament (HPDL) cells in vitro. MATERIAL AND METHODS Cells were treated with various concentrations (0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 U/mL) of thrombin. The mRNA expression and protein synthesis of OPG, as well as of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand (RANKL), were determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot analysis, respectively. The influence of thrombin on OPG synthesis and its signaling pathway were investigated using inhibitors. RESULTS Thrombin profoundly induces protein synthesis of OPG at 0.1 U/mL. The inductive effect was inhibited by cycloheximide, but not by indomethacin. The phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor, LY294002, and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, rapamycin, exerted an inhibitory effect on the thrombin-induced OPG synthesis. In addition, the effect was inhibited by protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1 antagonist. Activation of phospho-Akt (p-Akt) was observed and the effect was abolished by LY294002. CONCLUSION Thrombin induces OPG synthesis in HPDL cells post-transcriptionally, possibly through PAR-1. The regulation was through the PI3K/Akt and mTOR pathway. This finding suggests that thrombin may play a significant role in alveolar bone repair and homeostasis of periodontal tissue, partly through the OPG/RANKL system.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 2 (Bcl2) is a proto-oncogene best known for its ability to suppress cell death. However, the role of Bcl2 in the skeletal system is unknown. Bcl2 has been hypothesized to play an important anti-apoptotic role in osteoblasts during anabolic actions of PTH. Although rational, this has not been validated in vivo; hence, the impact of Bcl2 in bone remains unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS The bone phenotype of Bcl2 homozygous mutant (Bcl2(-/-)) mice was analyzed with histomorphometry and muCT. Calvarial osteoblasts were isolated and evaluated for their cellular activity. Osteoclastogenesis was induced from bone marrow cells using RANKL and macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), and their differentiation was analyzed. PTH(1-34) (50 microg/kg) or vehicle was administered daily to Bcl2(+/+) and Bcl2(-/-) mice (4 days old) for 9 days to clarify the influence of Bcl2 ablation on PTH anabolic actions. Western blotting and real-time PCR were performed to detect Bcl2 expression in calvarial osteoblasts in response to PTH ex vivo. RESULTS There were reduced numbers of osteoclasts in Bcl2(-/-) mice, with a resultant increase in bone mass. Bcl2(-/-) bone marrow-derived osteoclasts ex vivo were significantly larger in size and short-lived compared with wildtype, suggesting a pro-apoptotic nature of Bcl2(-/-) osteoclasts. In contrast, osteoblasts were entirely normal in their proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization. Intermittent administration of PTH increased bone mass similarly in Bcl2(+/+) and Bcl2(-/-) mice. Finally, Western blotting and real-time PCR showed that Bcl2 levels were not induced in response to PTH in calvarial osteoblasts. CONCLUSIONS Bcl2 is critical in osteoclasts but not osteoblasts. Osteoclast suppression is at least in part responsible for increased bone mass of Bcl2(-/-) mice, and Bcl2 is dispensable in PTH anabolic actions during bone growth.

Abstract
Prothrombin (PT) is an RGD-containing bone-residing precursor to the serine protease thrombin (TH), which acts as an agonist for a variety of cellular responses in osteoblasts and osteoclasts. We show here that PT, TH, osteopontin (OPN) and fibronectin (FN) promoted adhesion of isolated neonatal rat long bone osteoclasts. However, the cells that adhered to PT and TH were smaller in size, rounded and contained 3-4 nuclei, in comparison to the cells adhering to OPN and FN, which were larger with extended cytoplasmic processes and 6-7 nuclei. Attachment of the larger osteoclasts to OPN and FN was inhibited by antibodies towards beta 3 and beta 1 integrin subunits, respectively. Whereas an RGD-containing peptide inhibited adhesion of the smaller osteoclasts to PT and TH, this was not seen with the beta 3 or beta 1 antibodies. In contrast, the beta 1 antibody augmented osteoclast adhesion to PT and TH in an RGD-dependent manner. Small osteoclasts were less efficient in resorbing mineralized bovine bone slices, as well as expressed lower mRNA levels of MMP-9 and the cathepsins K and L compared to large osteoclasts. The small osteoclast adhering to PT and TH may represent either an immature, less functional precursor to the large osteoclast or alternatively constitute a distinct osteoclast population with a specific role in bone.

Abstract
PURPOSE Restoration of lost dentition in the severely artrophic posterior maxilla has for the last 2 decades been successfully treated with various sinus augmentation techniques and installation of dental implants. The use of graft material is anticipated to be necessary; however, recent studies have demonstrated that the mere lifting of the sinus mucosal lining and simultaneous placement of implants result in bone formation. This study was conducted in order to evaluate simultaneous sinus mucosal lining elevation and installation of dental implants without any graft material. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty patients were consecutively included from November 2001 to June 2004. Forty-four Astra ST dental implants (Astra Tech AB, Mölndal, Sweden) with a diameter of 4.5 mm or 5 mm were installed in 27 sinuses. A sinus lift was performed where a cortical window was removed from the maxillary anterior sinus wall. The sinus mucosal lining was elevated and implants installed in the residual subantral bone. The cortical window was thereafter replaced and the incision closed. The remaining bone height was recorded during surgery as well as perforations of the sinus mucosal lining. After 6 months of healing, abutments were connected (the series included 5 1-stage procedures). Clinical and radiological follow-up after loading was performed up to 4 years after implant installation. RESULTS Patients tolerated the procedure well as few complications were observed. Firm primary stability was achieved for all implants at installation with bone levels in residual bone of 2 to 9 mm. Perforations of the maxillary sinus mucosal lining occurred in 11 of the 27 operated sinuses (41%). One implant was lost during a mean follow-up of 27.5 months (range, 14 to 45 months) giving an implant survival rate of 97.7%. The average gain of bone at the sinus floor was 6.51 mm (SD = 2.49, 44 implants) including all measured implants after a minimum of 1 year follow-up. Marked bone formation was observed around long implants and also when the residual bone below the sinus was diminutive. CONCLUSIONS The present study including 20 patients showed consistent bone formation at the maxillary sinus floor following simultaneous mucosal lining elevation and installation of implants. It is suggested that the use of this technique can reduce the risk for morbidity related to harvesting of bone grafts and eliminate costs for grafting materials.

Abstract
The cells responsible for bone formation express protease-activated receptors. Although serine protease thrombin has been shown to elicit functional responses in bone cells that impact on cell survival and alkaline phosphatase activity, nothing is known about tissue factor, factor VIIa, and factor Xa, the serine proteases that act upstream of thrombin in the coagulation cascade. This paper demonstrates that tissue factor is expressed in the osteoblast-like cell line SaOS-2 and, that tissue factor in a factor VIIa-bound complex induces a transient intracellular Ca(2+) increase through protease-activated receptor-2. In SaOS-2 cells, factor Xa induced a sustained intracellular Ca(2+) response, as does SLIGRL, a PAR2-activating peptide, and PAR-1-dependent cell viability.

Abstract
A hypothesis: thrombin is a "Universal Enzyme of Energy Transduction" that employs ATP energy in flowing blood to activate biochemical reactions and cell effects in both hemostasis and tissue repair. All cells possess PAR-1 (thrombin) receptors and are affected by thrombin elevations, and thrombin effects on individual cell types are determined by their unique complement of PAR-1 receptors. Disruption of the vascular endothelium (VE) activates a tissue repair mechanism (TRM) consisting of the VE, tissue factor (TF), and circulating Factors VII, IX and X that governs localized thrombin elevations to activate clot formation and cellular effects that repair tissue damage. The culmination of the repair process occurs with the restoration of the VE followed by declines in thrombin production that causes Apoptosis ("programmed cell death") in wound-healing fibroblasts, which functions as a mechanism to draw wound edges together. The location and magnitude of TRM activity governs the location and magnitude of Factor VIII activity and clot formation, but the large size of Factor VIII prevents it from penetrating the clot formed by its activity, so that its effects are self-limiting. Factors VII, IX and X function primarily as tissue repair enzymes, while Factor VIII and Factor XIII are the only serine protease enzymes in the "Coagulation Cascade" that are exclusively associated with hemostasis.

Abstract
Understanding of the thrombotic response (activation of the intrinsic coagulation system followed by platelet activation) from blood components upon contact with a titanium dental implant is important and not fully understood. The aims of this study were to evaluate: (1) the thrombogenic response of whole blood, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-poor plasma (PPP) in contact with a highly thrombogenic surface as titanium, (2) the thrombogenic response of clinically used surfaces as hydroxyapatite (HA), machined titanium (mTi), TiO2 grit-blasted titanium (TiOB) and fluoride ion-modified grit-blasted titanium (TiOB-F). An in vitro slide chamber model, furnished with heparin, was used in which whole blood, PRP or PPP came in contact with slides of the test surfaces. After incubation (60 min rotation at 22 rpm in a 37 degrees C water bath), blood/plasma was mixed with EDTA or citrate, further centrifuged at +4 degrees C (2200 g at 10 min). Finally, plasma was collected pending analysis. Whole blood in contact with Ti alloy resulted in the binding of platelets to the material surface and in the generation of thrombin-antithrombin (TAT) complexes. With whole blood TAT levels increased 1000-fold compared with PRP and PPP, in which both almost no increase of TAT could be detected. In addition, the platelet activation showed a similar pattern with a 15-fold higher release of beta-TG in whole blood. In the in vitro chamber model with the clinically relevant materials, the fluoride-modified surface (TiOB-F) showed pronounced TAT generation compared with TiOB, mTi and HA. Similar results were achieved for platelet consumption and activation markers of the intrinsic coagulation system. Taken together these results implicate first that whole blood is necessary for sufficient thrombin generation and platelet activation during placement of implants. Second, a fluoride ion modification seems to augment the thrombogenic properties of titanium.

Abstract
AbstractCells responsible for the formation and maintenance of bone express thrombin-responsive members of the protease-activated receptor family of G protein-coupled receptors. Thrombin has been shown to elicit a number of functional responses in these cells, including proliferation and cytokine production in osteoblasts. Many, but not all, of the effects of thrombin on bone cells are initiated by activation of protease-activated receptor-1. A combination ofin vitroobservations and results ofin vivostudies in protease-activated receptor-1-null mice suggest that thrombin plays multiple roles in the early stages of bone healing.

Abstract
The type-I and -II insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I, II) are now established as survival- or proliferation-factors in many in vitro systems. Of note IGFs provide trophic support for multiple cell types or organ cultures explanted from various species, and delay the onset of programmed cell death (apoptosis) through the mitochondrial (intrinsic pathway) or by antagonizing activation of cytotoxic cytokine signaling (extrinsic pathway). In some instances, IGFs protect against other forms of death such as necrosis or autophagy. The effect of IGFs on cell survival appears to be context specific, being determined both by the cell origin (tissue specific) and the cellular stress that induces loss of cellular viability. In many human cancers, there is a strong association with dysregulated IGF signaling, and this association has been extensively reviewed recently. IGF-regulation is also disrupted in childhood cancers as a consequence of chromosomal translocations. IGFs are implicated also in acute renal failure, traumatic injury to brain tissue, and cardiac disease. This article focuses on the role of IGFs and their cellular signaling pathways that provide survival signals in stressed cells.

Abstract
For many years, fibrin sealants were associated with bone substitutes to promote bone healing. However, the osteoblastic response to fibrin sealant components remains poorly documented. In this study, MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells were cultured on biphasic calcium phosphate ceramic (MBCP) coated with Tissucol components (thrombin and fibrinogen). Analysis of osteoblastic differentiation markers by RT-PCR revealed that MBCP coated with Tissucol stimulated mRNA levels for osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Of all the components of Tissucol, thrombin has been reported to affect osteoblastic behavior. Our results demonstrated that low thrombin concentrations (0.5-5 U/ml) stimulated mRNA levels for ALP, whereas high thrombin concentrations (50-100 U/ml) decreased mRNA levels for ALP and PTH/PTHrP receptor and also increased mRNA level for the osteoclastogenesis inhibitor OPG. As thrombin stimulated angiogenesis, we then wondered whether thrombin could influence the expression of angiogenic factors. Low thrombin concentrations were shown to up-regulate mRNA levels for VEGF-B and VEGF-R1, suggesting an autocrine/paracrine role for VEGF-B. Higher thrombin concentrations also up-regulated mRNA for VEGF-A and neuropilin-1. In conclusion, the association of MBCP with thrombin and fibrinogen appears to be a convenient scaffold for bone cell differentiation. Thrombin could also acts at the cellular level by increasing the angiogenic potential of osteoblasts as well as their responsiveness to thrombin and VEGF.

Abstract
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are essential for normal central CNS function and represent the proximal site(s) of action for most neurotransmitters and many therapeutic drugs, including typical and atypical antipsychotic drugs. Similarly, protein kinases mediate many of the downstream actions for both ionotropic and metabotropic receptors. We report here that genetic deletion of p90 ribosomal S6 kinase 2 (RSK2) potentiates GPCR signaling. Initial studies of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)(2A) receptor signaling in fibroblasts obtained from RSK2 wild-type (+/+) and knockout (-/-) mice showed that 5-HT(2A) receptor-mediated phosphoinositide hydrolysis and both basal and 5-HT-stimulated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation are augmented in RSK2 knockout fibroblasts. Endogenous signaling by other GPCRs, including P2Y-purinergic, PAR-1-thrombinergic, beta1-adrenergic, and bradykinin-B receptors, was also potentiated in RSK2-deficient fibroblasts. Importantly, reintroduction of RSK2 into RSK2-/- fibroblasts normalized signaling, thus demonstrating that RSK2 apparently modulates GPCR signaling by exerting a "tonic brake" on GPCR signal transduction. Our results imply the existence of a novel pathway regulating GPCR signaling, modulated by downstream members of the extracellular signal-related kinase/mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade. The loss of RSK2 activity in humans leads to Coffin-Lowry syndrome, which is manifested by mental retardation, growth deficits, skeletal deformations, and psychosis. Because RSK2-inactivating mutations in humans lead to Coffin-Lowry syndrome, our results imply that alterations in GPCR signaling may account for some of its clinical manifestations.

Abstract
An integrated, bioinformatic analysis of three databases comprising tumor-cell-based small molecule screening data, gene expression measurements, and PDB (Protein Data Bank) ligand-target structures has been developed for probing mechanism of drug action (MOA). Clustering analysis of GI50 profiles for the NCI's database of compounds screened across a panel of tumor cells (NCI60) was used to select a subset of unique cytotoxic responses for about 4000 small molecules. Drug-gene-PDB relationships for this test set were examined by correlative analysis of cytotoxic response and differential gene expression profiles within the NCI60 and structural comparisons with known ligand-target crystallographic complexes. A survey of molecular features within these compounds finds thirteen conserved Compound Classes, each class exhibiting chemical features important for interactions with a variety of biological targets. Protein targets for an additional twelve Compound Classes could be directly assigned using drug-protein interactions observed in the crystallographic database. Results from the analysis of constitutive gene expressions established a clear connection between chemo-resistance and overexpression of gene families associated with the extracellular matrix, cytoskeletal organization, and xenobiotic metabolism. Conversely, chemo-sensitivity implicated overexpression of gene families involved in homeostatic functions of nucleic acid repair, aryl hydrocarbon metabolism, heat shock response, proteasome degradation and apoptosis. Correlations between chemo-responsiveness and differential gene expressions identified chemotypes with nonselective (i.e., many) molecular targets from those likely to have selective (i.e., few) molecular targets. Applications of data mining strategies that jointly utilize tumor cell screening, genomic, and structural data are presented for hypotheses generation and identifying novel anticancer candidates.

Abstract
Interleukin 8 (IL-8) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are two cytokines promoting prostate tumor growth and angiogenesis. The main coagulation protease thrombin may modulate the malignant phenotype of prostate cancer cells via its cellular receptor(s). We aimed to investigate the effects of thrombin on IL-8 and VEGF expression in DU 145 prostate cancer cells. Thrombin induced the expression and secretion of IL-8 and VEGF, with more pronounced effects on IL-8. Target-specific siRNA-induced protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) knockdown completely neutralized thrombin-enhanced cytokine secretion, demonstrating the essential role of PAR-1. Inhibitors of either extracellular signal-regulating kinase (ERK) or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) partly reversed the thrombin-induced cytokine expression, suggesting that both ERK and PI3K kinase pathways may be involved in IL-8 and VEGF expression. The results suggest that the thrombin/PAR-1 system upregulates cytokines in prostate cancer cells which in turn may contribute to the progression of prostate cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibrin deposition is frequently observed within the tubulointerstitium in various forms of chronic renal disease. This suggests the presence of active components of the coagulation pathway, which may contribute to the progressive deterioration in renal function. The aim of this study was to investigate the proinflammatory and fibroproliferative effects of the coagulation protease thrombin on human proximal tubular cells (PTC) in culture. METHODS Primary cultures of PTC were established from normal kidney tissue and grown under serum-free conditions with or without thrombin or the protease-activated receptor (PAR) activating peptides TFLLRN-NH(2), SLIGKV-NH(2), and SFLLRN-NH(2) (100 to 400 micromol/L). DNA synthesis (thymidine incorporation), intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization (fura-2 fluorimetry), fibronectin secretion [enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), immunoblotting], monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) secretion (ELISA), and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) secretion (ELISA) were measured. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to assess PAR mRNA expression in these cells. RESULTS Thrombin enhanced DNA synthesis, fibronectin secretion, MCP-1 secretion, and TGF-beta1 secretion in a concentration-dependent manner. Cell injury [lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release] and cellular protein levels were unaffected. RT-PCR showed that cultures of PTC expressed mRNA transcripts for the thrombin receptors PAR-1 and PAR-3, but not PAR-4. Thrombin and each of the PAR activating peptides enhanced intracellular calcium mobilization. However, the other effects of thrombin were only fully reproduced by the PAR-2-specific peptide, SLIGKV-NH(2), only partially by SFLLRN-NH(2), (a PAR-1 peptide that can activate PAR-2), and not at all by the PAR-1-specific peptide, TFLLRN-NH(2). Thrombin-induced DNA synthesis, fibronectin, and MCP-1 secretion were unaffected by a TGF-beta neutralizing antibody, the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitor, GM6001 and the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase inhibitor AG1478. CONCLUSION Thrombin initiates both proinflammatory and fibroproliferative responses in human PTC. These responses which are dependent on its protease activity appear not to be mediated by PAR-1 activation, the autocrine action of thrombin-induced TGF-beta1 secretion, MMP activation, or EGF receptor transactivation. The proinflammatory and fibroproliferative actions of thrombin on human PTC may help explain the extent of tubulointerstitial fibrosis observed in kidney diseases where fibrin deposition is evident.
