Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of intermittent parathyroid hormone (iPTH) administration on pathological new bone formation during treatment of ankylosing spondylitis-related osteoporosis. METHODS Animal models with pathological bone formation caused by hypothetical AS pathogenesis received treatment with iPTH. We determined the effects of iPTH on bone loss and the formation of pathological new bone with micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and histological examination. In addition, the tamoxifen-inducible conditional knockout mice (CAGGCre-ERTM; PTHflox/flox, PTH-/-) was established to delete PTH and investigate the effect of endogenous PTH on pathological new bone formation. RESULTS iPTH treatment significantly improved trabecular bone mass in the modified collagen-induced arthritis (m-CIA) model and unbalanced mechanical loading models. Meanwhile, iPTH treatment did not enhance pathological new bone formation in all types of animal models. Endogenous PTH deficiency had no effects on pathological new bone formation in unbalanced mechanical loading models. CONCLUSION Experimental animal models of AS treated with iPTH show improvement in trabecular bone density, but not entheseal pathological bone formation,indicating it may be a potential treatment for inflammatory bone loss does in AS.

Application of two-sample Mendelian randomization method to assess the causal relationship between rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporotic fracture. Front Med (Lausanne) 2024; 11:1388968. [PMID: 38799148 PMCID: PMC11116583 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2024.1388968] [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: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoporotic fracture has garnered considerable attention; however, the causal relationships between diseases remain uncertain. Therefore, this study employed Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate the causal effects of RA on osteoporotic fracture. Methods The summary data for RA and osteoporotic fracture were extracted from the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) catalog and the Finn Biobank database. The database provides information about diseased and health control subjects. We searched the database for the following conditions: RA, osteoporosis (OP), and osteoporotic fractures. Entries were published by investigating centers, which had established definitions and diagnostic criteria. We downloaded and processed the data to obtain the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) strongly associated with RA, OP, and osteoporotic fracture. RA genetic associations were obtained from the GWAS catalog, including 1961 cases and 454,387 controls. The osteoporosis of the GWAS catalog involved 991 cases and 455,357 controls, and the data of the Finn Biobank involved 8,017 cases and 391,037 controls. Genetic associations for osteoporotic fracture were taken from the Finn Biobank of 1822 cases and 311,210 controls. Independent SNPs that are significantly associated with meeting the criteria of p < 5 × 10-8, r2 < 0.001, and kb = 10,000 were selected for MR analysis. The inverse variance-weighted (IVW) method along with other MR methods was employed for analysis, while sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess reliability and stability. Results The results provided strong evidence that RA was causally and positively associated with osteoporosis from the GWAS catalog (OR = 1.16590; 95% CI: 1.04067-1.30619; p = 0.00811) and the Finn Biobank database (OR = 1.07314; 95% CI: 1.03455-1.11317; p = 0.00016). Moreover, a positive causal relationship was detected between RA and osteoporotic fracture (OR = 1.10132; 95% CI: 1.00506-1.20680; p = 0.03863). The results were robust according to sensitivity tests. Conclusion This study showed positive causal relationships between RA and osteoporotic fracture. These results should be considered in further studies and public health measures on osteoporosis prevention strategies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) commonly present musculoskeletal disorders characterized by lower bone mineral density (BMD) and muscle weakness. However, the underlying etiology remains unclear. Our objective is to identify shared pleiotropic genetic effects and estimate the causal relationship between MS and musculoskeletal disorders. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSR), colocalization, and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses using summary statistics from recent large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS), encompassing MS, falls, fractures, and frailty. Additional MR analyses explored the causal relationship with musculoskeletal risk factors, such as BMD, lean mass, grip strength, and vitamin D. RESULTS We observed a moderate genetic correlation between MS and falls (RG = 0.10, P-value = 0.01) but not between MS with fracture or frailty in the LDSR analyses. MR revealed MS had no causal association with fracture and frailty but a moderate association with falls (OR: 1.004, FDR q-value = 0.018). We further performed colocalization analyses using nine SNPs that exhibited significant associations with both MS and falls in MR. Two SNPs (rs7731626 on ANKRD55 and rs701006 on OS9 gene) showed higher posterior probability of colocalization (PP.H4 = 0.927), suggesting potential pleiotropic effects between MS and falls. The nine genes are associated with central nervous system development and inflammation signaling pathways. CONCLUSION We found potential pleiotropic genetic effects between MS and falls. However, our analysis did not reveal a causal relationship between MS and increased risks of falls, fractures, or frailty. This suggests that the musculoskeletal disorders frequently reported in MS patients in clinical studies are more likely attributed to secondary factors associated with disease progression and treatment, rather than being directly caused by MS itself.

Abstract
The recognition and importance of immune cells during bone regeneration, including around bone biomaterials, has led to the development of an entire field termed "osteoimmunology," which focuses on the connection and interplay between the skeletal system and immune cells. Most studies have focused on the "osteogenic" capacity of various types of bone biomaterials, and much less focus has been placed on immune cells despite being the first cell type in contact with implantable devices. Thus, the amount of literature generated to date on this topic makes it challenging to extract needed information. This review article serves as a guide highlighting advancements made in the field of osteoimmunology emphasizing the role of the osteoimmunomodulatory properties of biomaterials and their impact on osteoinduction. First, the various immune cell types involved in bone biomaterial integration are discussed, including the prominent role of osteal macrophages (OsteoMacs) during bone regeneration. Thereafter, key biomaterial properties, including topography, wettability, surface charge, and adsorption of cytokines, growth factors, ions, and other bioactive molecules, are discussed in terms of their impact on immune responses. These findings highlight and recognize the importance of the immune system and osteoimmunology, leading to a shift in the traditional models used to understand and evaluate biomaterials for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Background Musculoskeletal disorders were commonly reported in patients with multiple sclerosis. However, the underlying etiology linking Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and musculoskeletal disorders is not well studied. With large-scale Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) publicly available, we conducted genetic correlation analysis to identify shared pleiotropic genetic effects between MS and musculoskeletal traits. We also conducted Mendelian Randomization (MR) to estimate the causal relation between MS and increased risks of musculoskeletal disorders. Methods Linkage Disequilibrium Score Regression (LDSR) analysis was performed to estimate heritability and genetic correlation. Univariable, multivariable, and bidirectional MR analyses were conducted to estimate the causal relation. These analyses were done by utilizing the recent GWAS summary statistics of MS, fracture, frailty, falls, and several musculoskeletal risk factors, including bone mineral density, lean mass, grip strengths, and vitamin D. Results LDSR analysis showed a moderate genetic correlation of MS with falls (RG=0.10, p=0.01) but not with fracture and frailty. Genetic variants (rs13191659) in LINC00240 gene which is associated with iron status biomarkers was found to be associated with both MS and falls. In MR analyses after excluding outlier SNPs with potential pleiotropic effects and correcting for multiple testing, MS presented no causal association with fracture and frailty but a minimal association with falls. Falls showed causally increased risks of fracture and frailty. Conclusion Our study suggests a potential genetic correlation with shared pleiotropic genetic effects between MS and falls. However, we didn't find evidence to support the causal relation between MS and increased risks of falls, fracture, and frailty.

Abstract
As the most common bone disease, osteoporosis (OP) increases bone fragility and makes patients more vulnerable to the threat of osteoporotic fractures. With the ageing population in today's society, OP has become a huge and growing public health problem. Unfortunately, the clear pathogenesis of OP is still under exploration, and effective interventions are still scarce. Therefore, exploring new targets for pharmacological interventions to develop promising therapeutic drugs for OP is of great clinical value. Previous studies have shown that normal bone remodeling depends on proteostasis, whereas loss of proteostasis during ageing leads to the dysfunctional proteostasis network (PN) that fails to maintain bone homeostasis. Nevertheless, only a few studies have revealed the pathophysiological relationship between bone metabolism and a single component of PN, yet the role of PN as a whole in the pathogenesis of OP is still under investigation. This review comprehensively summarized the role of PN in the pathogenesis of OP and further discussed the potential of PN as innovative drug targets for the therapy of OP.

Abstract
Objective The relationship between different autoimmune diseases and bone mineral density (BMD) and fractures has been reported in epidemiological studies. This study aimed to explore the causal relationship between autoimmune diseases and BMD, falls, and fractures using Mendelian randomization (MR). Methods The instrumental variables were selected from the aggregated statistical data of these diseases from the largest genome-wide association study in Europe. Specifically, 12 common autoimmune diseases were selected as exposure. Outcome variables included BMD, falls, and fractures. Multiple analysis methods were utilized to comprehensively evaluate the causal relationship between autoimmune diseases and BMD, falls, and fractures. Additionally, sensitivity analyses, including Cochran's Q test, MR-Egger intercept test, and one analysis, were conducted to verify the result's reliability. Results Strong evidence was provided in the results of the negatively association of ulcerative colitis (UC) with forearm BMD. UC also had a negatively association with the total body BMD, while inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) depicted a negatively association with the total body BMD at the age of 45-60 years. Horizontal pleiotropy or heterogeneity was not detected through sensitivity analysis, indicating that the causal estimation was reliable. Conclusion This study shows a negative causal relationship between UC and forearm and total body BMD, and between IBD and total body BMD at the age of 45-60 years. These results should be considered in future research and when public health measures and osteoporosis prevention strategies are formulated.

Abstract
Background Autoimmune diseases are more common among people with unhealthy sleep behaviors, and these conditions have been linked to aging-related bone health. However, there have been few studies that examined the correlation between recently developed sleep patterns based on sleep duration, sleepiness, chronotype, snoring, insomnia, and the incidence of falls and fractures. Methods We used a newly developed sleep pattern with components of sleep 7 to 8 h per day, absence of frequent excessive daytime sleepiness, early chronotype, no snoring, and no frequent insomnia as healthy factors to study their relationship with the incidence of falls and fractures. The analysis was conducted among 289,000 participants from the UK Biobank. Results The mean follow-up period was 12.3 years (3.5 million person-years of follow-up), and 12,967 cases of falls and 16,121 cases of all fractures were documented. Compared to participants exhibiting an unfavorable sleep pattern, those adhering to a healthy sleep pattern experienced a 17% and 28% reduction in the risks of incident falls (hazard ratio [HR], 0.83; 95% CI, 0.74-0.93) and all fractures (HR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.66-0.79) during follow-up. In addition, participants exhibiting a healthy sleep pattern, together with a high genetically determined bone mineral density (BMD), showed the lowest risks of falls and fractures. Conclusion A healthy sleep pattern was significantly linked to decreased risks of incident falls and fractures. The protective association was not modified by genetically determined BMD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory arthritis that is present in approximately 25% of psoriasis patients. Currently, several targeted therapies are available to manage PsA; however, many patients fail these therapies. Several new therapeutic options, with differing mechanisms of action, are currently being evaluated. AREAS COVERED This article reviews available results from phase I to phase III trials of several investigational monoclonal antibodies that the FDA has not yet approved for PsA. The proposed mechanisms of the new therapeutic agents and their relevance to the pathogenesis of PsA will be discussed. The investigational agents' efficacy and safety will be summarized, and their potential clinical applications for managing PsA will be contemplated. EXPERT OPINION Due to recent advances in understanding psoriatic arthritis, therapeutic agents are increasingly focused on inhibiting interleukin-17 and interleukin-23 pathways. Various strategies have been used to inhibit these cytokines, demonstrating favorable efficacy and acceptable safety profile.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Since inflammation can cause joint destruction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), it is assumed that joints that are symptomatic at onset are at higher risk of joint destruction; however, this theory remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate whether the progression of joint destruction in hands and feet could be predicted from the clinical and radiographic findings at onset. METHODS This study included 75 patients who visited our hospital within one year after the onset of RA with at least 12 months of follow-up. We examined the positive predictive value (PPV) and the sensitivity of the clinical findings (swelling, tenderness, and squeeze test) and joint destruction at onset for the progression of joint destruction. RESULTS Sixty joints (45 metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints, 15 metatarsophalangeal joints) exhibited progressive structural destruction during the study course. Both the PPV and the sensitivity of the clinical findings for the progression of joint destruction were low; however, only the sensitivity of the squeeze test for the feet was high. The PPV of joint destruction at onset was higher than the clinical findings, and the sensitivity of joint destruction at onset was as high as the squeeze test for the feet. Conclusions: Regular follow-up with imaging is necessary regardless of symptoms and joint destruction at the onset. Adding the squeeze test for feet to routine clinical practice may help predict the risk of joint destruction for the feet.

Abstract
Bone marrow contains resident cellular components that are not only involved in bone maintenance but also regulate hematopoiesis and immune responses. The immune system and bone interact with each other, coined osteoimmunology. Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) is one of the most common chronic autoimmune diseases which is accompanied by lymphocytic infiltration. It shows elevating thyroid autoantibody levels at an early stage and progresses to thyroid dysfunction ultimately. Different effects exert on bone metabolism during different phases of HT. In this review, we summarized the mechanisms of the long-term effects of HT on bone and the relationship between thyroid autoimmunity and osteoimmunology. For patients with HT, the bone is affected not only by thyroid function and the value of TSH, but also by the setting of the autoimmune background. The autoimmune background implies a breakdown of the mechanisms that control self-reactive system, featuring abnormal immune activation and presence of autoantibodies. The etiology of thyroid autoimmunity and osteoimmunology is complex and involves a number of immune cells, cytokines and chemokines, which regulate the pathogenesis of HT and osteoporosis at the same time, and have potential to affect each other. In addition, vitamin D works as a potent immunomodulator to influence both thyroid immunity and osteoimmunology. We conclude that HT affects bone metabolism at least through endocrine and immune pathways.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common inflammaging-related condition, where long-term accumulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines causes massive bone loss. Periplocin, a cardiotonic steroid isolated from Periploca forrestii, has been proved to reduce inflammation in several inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis. However, its effect and mechanism of inflammation in osteoporosis, in which pro-inflammatory factors accelerate bone loss, has not been well demonstrated. In this study, periplocin attenuated receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) and RAW264.7 cells in vitro. It reduced osteoclast numbers and bone resorption in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Further, periplocin treatment resulted in reduced bone loss on mice with ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis in vivo. By transcriptome sequencing, periplocin was indicated to function through inhibition of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathways and attenuating interactions between NF-κB and nuclear factor of activated T-cells 1 (NFATc1). It was further detected to bind low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4 (LRP4) in osteoclasts to exert anti-inflammatory and anti-osteoclastic effects. Overall, the findings have highlighted a better understanding for the anti-inflammatory and anti-osteoclastic role of periplocin in osteoporosis and its mechanism, bringing new possibilities for osteoporosis treatment.

Abstract
Vector-borne infections of humans with the protozoan parasite Leishmania (L.) infantum can cause a systemic and potentially lethal disease termed visceral leishmaniasis. In the corresponding mouse model, an intravenous infection with L. infantum leads to the persistence of parasites in various organs, including bone marrow (BM). Considering the anatomical proximity between the BM and the cortical bone, we investigated whether a chronic infection with L. infantum affected bone homeostasis. Unexpectedly, chronic infection with L. infantum caused an increase in bone mass in mice. In vivo, an increased number of osteoblasts and osteocytes and a decreased maturation of osteoclasts characterized the phenotype. Confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy confirmed the infection of BM macrophages but also revealed the presence of parasites in osteoclasts. In vitro, mature osteoclasts took up L. infantum parasites. However, infection of osteoclast progenitors abolished their differentiation and function. In addition, secretory products of infected BM-derived macrophages inhibited the maturation of osteoclasts. Both in vitro and in vivo, infected macrophages and osteoclasts showed an enhanced expression of the anti-osteoclastogenic chemokine CCL5 (RANTES). Neutralization of CCL5 prevented the inhibition of osteoclast generation seen in the presence of culture supernatants from L. infantum-infected macrophages. Altogether, our study shows that chronic infection with Leishmania increases bone mass by inducing bone formation and impairing osteoclast differentiation and function. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Autologous blood-derived protein hydrogels have shown great promise in the field of personalized regenerative medicine. However, the inhospitable regenerative microenvironments, especially the unfavorable immune microenvironment, are closely associated with their limited tissue-healing outcomes. Herein, novel immunomodulatory blood-derived hybrid hydrogels (PnP-iPRF) are rationally designed and constructed for enhanced bone regeneration via multichannel regulation of the osteogenic microenvironment. Such double-network hybrid hydrogels are composed of clinically approved injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) and polycaprolactone/hydroxyapatite composite nanofibers by using enriched polydopamine (PDA) as the anchor. The polycaprolactone component in PnP-iPRF provides a reinforced structure to stimulate osteoblast differentiation in a proper biomechanical microenvironment. Most importantly, the versatile PDA component in PnP-iPRF can not only offer high adhesion capacity to the growth factors of i-PRF and create a suitable biochemical microenvironment for sustained osteogenesis but also reprogram the osteoimmune microenvironment via the induction of M2 macrophage polarization to promote bone healing. The present study will provide a new paradigm to realize enhanced osteogenic efficacy by multichannel microenvironment regulations and give new insights into engineering high-efficacy i-PRF hydrogels for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Bone turnover is finely tuned by cells in the bone milieu, including osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and osteocytes. Osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cells with a bone-resorbing function that play a critical role in regulating skeletal homeostasis. Osteoclast differentiation is characterized by dramatic changes in morphology and gene expression following receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa-Β ligand (RANKL) stimulation. We performed single-cell RNA-sequencing analyses of human and murine osteoclast-lineage cells (OLCs) and found that OLCs in the mitotic phase do not differentiate into mature osteoclasts. We also identified a guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) family member, RAB38, as a highly expressed molecule in both human and murine osteoclast clusters; RAB38 gene expression is associated with dynamic changes in histone modification and transcriptional regulation. Silencing Rab38 expression by using short hairpin RNA (shRNA) inhibited osteoclast differentiation and maturation. In summary, we established an integrated fate map of human and murine osteoclastogenesis; this will help identify therapeutic targets in bone diseases. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
Physiological microenvironment engineering has shown great promise in combating a variety of diseases. Herein, we present the rational design of reinforced and injectable blood-derived protein hydrogels (PDA@SiO2-PRF) composed of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), polydopamine (PDA), and SiO2 nanofibers that can act as dual-level regulators to engineer the microenvironment for personalized bone regeneration with high efficacy. From the biophysical level, PDA@SiO2-PRF with high stiffness can withstand the external loading and maintaining the space for bone regeneration in bone defects. Particularly, the reinforced structure of PDA@SiO2-PRF provides bone extracellular matrix (ECM)-like functions to stimulate osteoblast differentiation via Yes-associated protein (YAP) signaling pathway. From the biochemical level, the PDA component in PDA@SiO2-PRF hinders the fast degradation of PRF to release autologous growth factors in a sustained manner, providing sustained osteogenesis capacity. Overall, the present study offers a dual-level strategy for personalized bone regeneration by engineering the biophysiochemical microenvironment to realize enhanced osteogenesis efficacy.

Calcif Tissue Int 2022; 110:393-420. [PMID: 35066596 DOI: 10.1007/s00223-021-00933-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2021] [Accepted: 11/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Spondyloarthropathies (SpA) are common systemic inflammatory rheumatic diseases, in which, as in other rheumatic diseases, levels of markers of bone resorption are elevated, leading to bone loss and elevated risk of vertebral fractures. However, the diseases are also associated with new bone formation in the spine, the so-called syndesmophytes. We tried to unravel the pathogenesis of formation and growth of syndesmophytes and evaluated new diagnostic and treatment options. After a successful meeting of the Working Group on Rheumatic Diseases at the ECTS 2020, we (WL and CR) were excited about the quality of the speakers (CM, JH, AG, and GL) and their complimentary lectures. Given the relative lack of reviews on spondyloarthropathies and bone, we decided to work together on a comprehensive review that might be interesting for basic scientists and clinically relevant for clinicians. Radiographic progression in axSpA is linked to several risk factors, like male sex, smoking, HLA-B-27, increased levels of CRP, presence of syndesmophytes, and marked inflammation on MRI. The potential role of mechanical stress in the context of physically demanding jobs has been also suggested to promote structural damages. Different treatment options from NSAIDs to biologic agents like TNF inhibitors (TNFi) or IL-17inhibitors (IL-17i) result in a reduction of inflammation and symptoms. However, all these different treatment options failed to show clear and reproducible results on inhibition on syndesmophyte formation. The majority of data are available on TNFi, and some studies suggested an effect in subgroups of patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Less information is available on NSAIDs and IL-17i. Since IL-17i have been introduced quite recently, more studies are expected. IL-17 inhibitors (Il-17i) potently reduce signs and symptoms, but serum level of IL-17 is not elevated, therefore, IL-17 probably has mainly a local effect. The failure of anti-IL-23 in axSpA suggests that IL-17A production could be independent from IL-23. It may be upregulated by TNFα, resulting in lower expression of DKK1 and RANKL and an increase in osteogenesis. In active AS markers of bone resorption are increased, while bone formation markers can be increased or decreased. Bone Turnover markers and additional markers related to Wnt such as DKK1, sclerostin, and RANKL are valuable for elucidating bone metabolism on a group level and they are not (yet) able to predict individual patient outcomes. The gold standard for detection of structural lesions in clinical practice is the use of conventional radiographics. However, the resolution is low compared to the change over time and the interval for detecting changes are 2 years or more. Modern techniques offer substantial advantages such as the early detection of bone marrow edema with MRI, the fivefold increased detection rate of new or growing syndesmophytes with low-dose CT, and the decrease in 18F-fluoride uptake during treatment with TNFα-inhibitors (TNFi) in a pilot study in 12 AS patients. Detection of bone involvement by new techniques, such as low-dose CT, MRI and 18-Fluoride PET-scans, and bone turnover markers, in combination with focusing on high-risk groups such as patients with early disease, elevated CRP, syndesmophytes at baseline, male patients and patients with HLA-B27 + are promising options for the near future. However, for optimal prevention of formation of syndesmophytes we need more detailed insight in the pathogenesis of bone formation in axSpA and probably more targeted therapies.

Abstract
A substantial amount patients with cancer will develop bone metastases, with 70% of metastatic prostate and breast cancer patients harboring bone metastasis. Despite advancements in systemic therapies for advanced cancer, survival remains poor for those with bone metastases. The interaction between bone cells and the immune system contributes to a better understanding of the role that the immune system plays in the bone metastasis of cancer. The immune and bone systems share various molecules, including transcription factors, signaling molecules, and membrane receptors, which can stimulate the differentiation and activation of bone-resorbing osteoclasts. The process of cancer metastasis to bone, which deregulates bone turnover and results in bone loss and skeletal-related events (SREs), is also controlled by primary cancer-related factors that modulate the intratumoral microenvironment as well as cellular immune process. The nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) and the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B (RANK) are key regulators of osteoclast development, bone metabolism, lymph node development, and T-cell/dendritic cell communication. RANKL is an osteoclastogenic cytokine that links the bone and the immune system. In this review, we highlight the role of RANKL and RANK in the immune microenvironment and bone metastases and review data on the role of the regulatory mechanism of immunity in bone metastases, which could be verified through clinical efficacy of RANKL inhibitors for cancer patients with bone metastases. With the discovery of the specific role of RANK signaling in osteoclastogenesis, the humanized monoclonal antibody against RANKL, such as denosumab, was available to prevent bone loss, SREs, and bone metastases, providing a unique opportunity to target RANKL/RANK as a future strategy to prevent bone metastases.

Abstract
A growing body of scientific evidence supports the notion that gut microbiota plays a key role in the regulation of various physiological and pathological processes related to human health. Recent findings have now established that gut microbiota also contributes to the regulation of bone homeostasis. Studies on animal models have unraveled various underlying mechanisms responsible for gut microbiota-mediated bone regulation. Normal gut microbiota is thus required for the maintenance of bone homeostasis. However, dysbiosis of gut microbiota communities is reported to be associated with several bone-related ailments such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and periodontitis. Dietary interventions in the form of probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, and postbiotics have been reported in restoring the dysbiotic gut microbiota composition and thus could provide various health benefits to the host including bone health. These dietary interventions prevent bone loss through several mechanisms and thus could act as potential therapies for the treatment of bone pathologies. In the present review, we summarize the current knowledge of how gut microbiota and its derived microbial compounds are associated with bone metabolism and their roles in ameliorating bone health. In addition to this, we also highlight the role of various dietary supplements like probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, and postbiotics as promising microbiota targeted interventions with the clinical application for leveraging treatment modalities in various inflammatory bone pathologies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) relies on bone remodeling and controlled aseptic inflammation. Autophagy, a conserved homeostatic pathway, has been shown to play a role in bone turnover. We hypothesize that autophagy participates in regulating bone remodeling during OTM in a force-dependent and cell type-specific manner. METHODS A split-mouth design was used to load molars with 1 of 3 force levels (15, 30, or 45 g of force) in mice carrying a green fluorescent protein-LC3 transgene to detect cellular autophagy. Fluorescent microscopy and quantitative polymerase chain reaction analyses were used to evaluate autophagy activation and its correlation with force level. Cell type-specific antibodies were used to identify cells with green fluorescent protein-positive puncta (autophagosomes) in periodontal tissues. RESULTS Autophagic activity increased shortly after loading with moderate force and was associated with the expression of bone turnover, inflammatory, and autophagy markers. Different load levels resulted in altered degrees of autophagic activation, gene expression, and osteoclast recruitment. Autophagy was specifically induced by loading in macrophages and osteoclasts found in the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. Data suggest autophagy participates in regulating bone turnover during OTM. CONCLUSIONS Autophagy is induced in macrophage lineage cells by orthodontic loading in a force-dependent manner and plays a role during OTM, possibly through modulation of osteoclast bone resorption. Exploring the roles of autophagy in OTM is medically relevant, given that autophagy is associated with oral and systemic inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Imbalance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts accounts for the incidence and deterioration of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Abnormally elevated RANKL and TNF-α levels after menopause promote osteoclast formation and inhibit osteoblast differentiation, respectively. Here, nanodecoys capable of scavenging RANKL and TNF-α were developed from preosteoclast (RAW 264.7 cell) membrane–coated poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles, which inhibited osteoporosis and maintained bone integrity. The nanodecoys effectively escaped from macrophage capture and enabled prolonged blood circulation after systemic administration. The abundant RANK and TNF-α receptor (TNF-αR) on the cell membranes effectively neutralized RANKL and TNF-α to prevent osteoclastogenesis and promote osteoblastogenesis, respectively, thus reversing the progression of osteoporosis in the ovariectomized (OVX) mouse model. These biomimetic nanodecoys provide an effective strategy for reconstructing the osteoclast/osteoblast balance and hold great potentials for the clinical management of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
Melatonin is the primary circadian output signal from the brain and is mainly synthesized in pinealocytes. The rhythm and secretion of melatonin are under the control of an endogenous oscillator located in the SCN or the master biological clock. Disruptions in circadian rhythms by shift work, aging, or light at night are associated with bone loss and increased fracture risk. Restoration of nocturnal melatonin peaks to normal levels or therapeutic levels through timed melatonin supplementation has been demonstrated to provide bone-protective actions in various models. Melatonin is a unique molecule with diverse molecular actions targeting melatonin receptors located on the plasma membrane or mitochondria or acting independently of receptors through its actions as an antioxidant or free radical scavenger to stimulate osteoblastogenesis, inhibit osteoclastogenesis, and improve bone density. Its additional actions on entraining circadian rhythms and improving quality of life in an aging population coupled with its safety profile make it an ideal therapeutic candidate for protecting against bone loss in susceptible populations. The intent of this review is to provide a focused discussion on bone loss and disorders of the bone as it relates to melatonin and conditions that modify melatonin levels with the hope that future therapies include those that include melatonin and correct those factors that modify melatonin levels like circadian disruption.

Abstract
Biomaterials offer a promising approach to repair bone defects. Whereas traditional studies predominantly focused on optimizing the osteogenic capacity of biomaterials, less focus has been on the immune response elicited by them. However, the immune and skeletal systems extensively interact, a concept which is referred to as 'osteoimmunology'. This realization has fuelled the development of biomaterials with favourable osteoimmunomodulatory (OIM) properties, aiming to modulate the immune response and to support bone regeneration, thereby affecting the success of an implant. Given the plethora of in vitro assays used to evaluate the OIM properties of biomaterials, it may be challenging to select the right methods to produce conclusive results. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive and practical guide for researchers interested in studying the OIM properties of biomaterials in vitro. After a concise overview of the concept of osteoimmunology, emphasis is put on the methodologies that are regularly used to evaluate the OIM properties of biomaterials. First, a description of the most commonly used cell types and cell culture media is provided. Second, typical experimental set-ups and their relevant characteristics are discussed. Third, a detailed overview of the generally used methodologies and readouts, including cell type-specific markers and time points of analysis, is given. Finally, we highlight the promise of advanced approaches, namely microarrays, bioreactors and microfluidic-based systems, and the potential that these may offer to the osteoimmunology field. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Osteoimmunology focuses on the connection and communication between the skeletal and immune systems. This interaction has been recognized to play an important role in the clinical success of biomaterials, which has resulted in an increasing amount of research on the osteoimmunomodulatory (OIM) properties of biomaterials. However, the amount of literature makes it challenging to extract the information needed to design experiments from beginning to end, and to compare obtained results to existing work. This article intends to serve as a guide for those aiming to learn more about the commonly used experimental approaches in the field. We cover early-stage choices, such as cell types and experimental set-ups, but also discuss specific assays, including cell markers and time points of analysis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism underlying systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-related bone loss by evaluating the bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover markers (BTMs) in premenopausal patients with new-onset SLE without any treatment. METHODS BMD and BTMs of 106 premenopausal patients with new-onset SLE and 64 gender-, age- and body mass index (BMI)-matched healthy controls were analyzed. BMD was determined using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Serum BTMs were measured. RESULTS Hip and lumbar spine BMD in premenopausal patients with new-onset SLE was significantly decreased compared with healthy controls. Higher rate of osteoporosis was observed in new-onset SLE patients (25% vs. 1%). Moreover, uncoupled bone remodeling evidenced by an increase in bone resorption marker β-CTX (685.9 ± 709.6 pg/mL vs. 395.4 ± 326.0 pg/mL, P < 0.05) and decrease in bone formation markers PINP (37.4 ± 33.0 ng/mL vs. 46.1 ± 20.9 ng/mL, P < 0.05) and OC (11.4 ± 9.8 ng/mL vs. 18.2 ± 8.6 ng/mL, P < 0.05) was observed in premenopausal patients with new-onset SLE compared with healthy controls. Univariate correlation analyses showed negative correlations between OC and SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI), and positive correlations between β-CTX and SLEDAI. SLE patients positive for dsDNA, nucleosome showed lower OC and higher β-CTX. CONCLUSION Premenopausal patients with new-onset SLE had decreased BMD and abnormal bone metabolism with increased β-CTX and decreased OC and P1NP levels, indicating uncoupled bone remodeling in new-onset SLE patients. Disease activity and abnormal immunity, especially the amount of antibodies in SLE patients, were strongly associated with abnormality of bone metabolism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess bone mineral density (BMD) and associated clinical factors in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D), latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA), and type 2 diabetes (T2D) and in non-diabetic subjects. METHODS Total 108 age-, sex-, disease duration-, and postmenopausal ratio-matched patients with T1D, LADA, and T2D each and 216 age-, sex-, and postmenopausal ratio-matched non-diabetic controls. Anthropometric, biochemical, and BMD data were collected and analysed. RESULTS BMD of total hip and lumbar spine of individuals in the LADA group was lower than those in the T2D and control groups but higher than those in the T1D group. After adjusting for body mass index (BMI), a significant difference in BMD in the lumbar spine was seen between groups. After adjustment for smoking, BMI, 25-(OH) vitamin D, calcium, haemoglobin A1c, and diabetic complication scores, BMD values of patients in LADA group were not significantly different from those of patients in T1D and T2D groups. Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that BMD was (a) positively associated with weight and C-peptide, and negatively associated with age in patients with diabetes, (b) positively associated with C-peptide in the T1D and LADA groups. The proportion of patients with osteoporosis in the T1D, LADA, T2D, and control groups was 55.6%, 45.4%, 34.3%, and 26.9%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS BMD values in T1D, LADA, and T2D were in an increasing order of mention. Patients with autoimmune diabetes were more susceptible to osteoporosis. A lower C-peptide level may be responsible for decreased BMD in individuals with autoimmune diabetes.

Abstract
Immune imbalance caused bone loss. Osteoimmunology is emerging as a new interdisciplinary field to explore the shared molecules and interactions between the skeletal and immune systems. In particular, T lymphocytes (T cells) play pivotal roles in the regulation of bone health. However, the roles and mechanisms of T cells in the treatment of osteoporosis are not fully understood. The present review aims to summarize the essential regulatory roles of T cells in the pathophysiology of various cases of osteoporosis and the development of T cell therapy for osteoporosis from osteoimmunology perspective. As T cell-mediated immunomodulation inhibition reduced bone loss, there is an increasing interest in T cell therapy in an attempt to treat osteoporosis. In summary, the T cell therapy may be further pursued as an immunomodulatory strategy for the treatment of osteoporosis, which can provide a novel perspective for drug development in the future.

Abstract
Inflammatory osteolysis is governed by exacerbated osteoclastogenesis. Ample evidence points to central role of NF-κB in such pathologic responses, yet the precise mechanisms underpinning specificity of these responses remain unclear. We propose that motifs of the scaffold protein IKKγ/NEMO partly facilitate such functions. As proof-of-principle, we used site-specific mutagenesis to examine the role of NEMO in mediating RANKL-induced signaling in mouse bone marrow macrophages, known as osteoclast precursors. We identified lysine (K)270 as a target regulating RANKL signaling as K270A substitution results in exuberant osteoclastogenesis in vitro and murine inflammatory osteolysis in vivo. Mechanistically, we discovered that K270A mutation disrupts autophagy, stabilizes NEMO, and elevates inflammatory burden. Specifically, K270A directly or indirectly hinders binding of NEMO to ISG15, a ubiquitin-like protein, which we show targets the modified proteins to autophagy-mediated lysosomal degradation. Taken together, our findings suggest that NEMO serves as a toolkit to fine-tune specific signals in physiologic and pathologic conditions. The human skeleton contains over 200 bones that together act as an internal framework for the body. Over our lifetime, the body constantly removes older bone tissue from the skeleton and replaces it with new bone tissue. This “bone remodeling” also controls how bones are repaired after being damaged by injuries, disease or normal wear and tear. Cells known as osteoclasts are responsible for breaking down old bone tissue and participate in repairing damaged bone. A cellular pathway known as NF-kB signaling stimulates other cells called “bone marrow macrophages” to become osteoclasts. A certain level of NF-kB signaling is required to maintain a healthy skeleton. However, under certain inflammatory conditions, the level of NF-kB signaling becomes too high causing hyperactive osteoclasts to accumulate and inflict severe bone breakdown. This abnormal osteoclast activity leads to eroded and fragile bones and joints, as is the case in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis. Previous studies have shown that a protein called NEMO is a core component of the NF-kB signal pathway, but the precise role of NEMO in the diseased response remained unclear. Adapala, Swarnkar, Arra et al. have now used site-directed mutagenesis approach to study the role of NEMO in bone marrow macrophages in mice. The experiments showed that one specific site within the NEMO protein, referred to as lysine 270, is crucial for its role in controlling osteoclasts and the breakdown of bone tissue. Mutating NEMO at lysine 270 led to uncontrolled NF-kB signaling in the bone marrow macrophages. Further experiments showed that lysine 270 served as a sensor to allow NEMO to bind another protein called ISG15, which in turn helped to decrease NF-kB signaling and slow down the erosion of the bone. These findings suggest that site-specific targeting of NEMO, rather than inhibiting the whole NF-kB pathway, may help to reduce the symptoms of bone disease while maintaining the beneficial roles of this essential pathway. However, additional research is required to identify NEMO sites responsible for controlling the inflammatory component.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)-suppressive therapy is recommended after surgical treatment in high-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients. TSH-suppressive therapy is a known risk factor for osteoporosis and fractures. However, whether patients with PTC themselves are at a higher risk of osteoporosis than healthy individuals remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify whether PTC is a risk factor for osteoporosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Serum and urinary biochemical parameters, bone mineral density (BMD), and presence of vertebral fractures (VFs) and non-VFs were evaluated in 35 PTC patients and 35 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals. We compared the parameters between PTC and control subjects and performed multiple logistic regression analyses after adjustments for variables. RESULTS Patients with PTC had higher body mass index (BMI) and hemoglobin (Hb)A1c, as well as lower eGFR and intact PTH than controls (p < 0.05, each). There were no significant differences in the prevalence of osteoporosis and VFs and non-VFs between patients with PTC and controls. However, the prevalence of severe osteoporosis diagnosed according to WHO criteria was significantly higher in PTC subjects (34.3%) than in controls (11.4%, p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, BMI, eGFR and HbA1c identified PTC as being associated with the presence of severe osteoporosis (odds ratio, 4.20; 95% confidence interval, 1.05-16.8; p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS We identified PTC as a risk factor for severe osteoporosis, independent of BMI, renal function and glucose profile.

Biomed Pharmacother 2019; 123:109764.

Abstract
Recent insights have indicated an active role of the complex complement system not only in immunity, but also in bone remodeling. Evidence from knockout mice and observations from skeletal diseases have drawn attention to the C5a/C5aR axis of the complement cascade in the modulation of osteoclast functions and as potential therapeutic targets for treatment of bone pathologies. With the aim to identify novel C5aR regulators, a medicinal chemistry program was initiated, driven by structural information on a minor pocket of C5aR that has been proposed to be a key motif for C5aR intracellular activation. The impact of the peptidomimetic orthosteric C5aR antagonist (PMX-53), of two newly synthesized allosteric C5aR antagonists (DF2593A, DF3016A), and of C5aR down-regulation by specific siRNAs, were examined for regulation of osteoclastogenesis, using a well-validated in-vitro model starting from RAW264.7 precursor cells. Both pharmacological and molecular approaches reduced osteoclast maturation of RAW264.7 cells induced by receptor-activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL), which limited the transcription of several differentiation markers evaluated by real-time PCR, including nuclear factor of activated T-cell 1, matrix metalloproteinase-9, cathepsin-K, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase. These treatments were ineffective on the subsequent step of osteoclast syncytium formation, apparently as a consequence of reduction of C5aR mRNA levels in the course of osteoclastogenesis, as monitored by real-time PCR. Among the C5aR antagonists analyzed, DF3016A inhibited osteoclast degradation activity through inhibition of C5aR signal transduction and transcription. These data confirm the preclinical relevance of this novel therapeutic candidate.

Abstract
WNT1 mutations in humans are associated with a new form of osteogenesis imperfecta and with early-onset osteoporosis, suggesting a key role of WNT1 in bone mass regulation. However, the general mode of action and the therapeutic potential of Wnt1 in clinically relevant situations such as aging remain to be established. Here, we report the high prevalence of heterozygous WNT1 mutations in patients with early-onset osteoporosis. We show that inactivation of Wnt1 in osteoblasts causes severe osteoporosis and spontaneous bone fractures in mice. In contrast, conditional Wnt1 expression in osteoblasts promoted rapid bone mass increase in developing young, adult, and aged mice by rapidly increasing osteoblast numbers and function. Contrary to current mechanistic models, loss of Lrp5, the co-receptor thought to transmit extracellular WNT signals during bone mass regulation, did not reduce the bone-anabolic effect of Wnt1, providing direct evidence that Wnt1 function does not require the LRP5 co-receptor. The identification of Wnt1 as a regulator of bone formation and remodeling provides the basis for development of Wnt1-targeting drugs for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) mainly affects various joints of the body, including the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), and it involves an infiltration of autoantibodies and inflammatory leukocytes into articular tissues and the synovium. Initially, the synovial lining tissue becomes engaged with several kinds of infiltrating cells, including osteoclasts, macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells. Eventually, bone degradation occurs. In order to elucidate the best therapy for RA, a comprehensive study of RA pathogenesis needs to be completed. In this article, we discuss a Fas-deficient condition which develops into RA, with an emphasis on the role of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P)/S1P receptor 1 signaling which induces the migration of osteoclast precursor cells. We describe that Fas/S1P1 signaling via NF-κB activation in osteoclasts is a key factor in TMJ-RA severity and we discuss a strategy for blocking nuclear translocation of the p50 NF-κB subunit as a potential therapy for attenuating osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
Objective The association between inflammation and dysregulated bone remodeling is apparent in rheumatoid arthritis and is recapitulated in the human tumor necrosis factor transgenic (hTNFtg) mouse model. We investigated whether extracellular binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP) would protect the hTNFtg mouse from both inflammatory arthritis as well as extensive systemic bone loss and whether BiP had direct antiosteoclast properties in vitro. Methods hTNFtg mice received a single intraperitoneal administration of BiP at onset of arthritis. Clinical disease parameters were measured weekly. Bone analysis was performed by microcomputed tomography and histomorphometry. Mouse bone marrow macrophage and human peripheral blood monocyte precursors were used to study the direct effect of BiP on osteoclast differentiation and function in vitro. Monocyte and osteoclast signaling was analyzed by Western blotting, flow cytometry, and imaging flow cytometry. Results BiP-treated mice showed reduced inflammation and cartilage destruction, and histomorphometric analysis revealed a decrease in osteoclast number with protection from systemic bone loss. Abrogation of osteoclast function was also observed in an ex vivo murine calvarial model. BiP inhibited differentiation of osteoclast precursors and prevented bone resorption by mature osteoclasts in vitro. BiP also induced downregulation of CD115/c-Fms and Receptor Activator of NF-κB (RANK) messenger RNA and protein, causing reduced phosphorylation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases, extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 and p38, with suppression of essential osteoclast transcription factors, c-Fos and NFATc1. BiP directly inhibited TNF-α- or Receptor Activator of NF-κB Ligand (RANKL)-induced NF-κB nuclear translocation in THP-1 monocytic cells and preosteoclasts by the canonical and noncanonical pathways. Conclusion BiP combines an anti-inflammatory function with antiosteoclast activity, which establishes it as a potential novel therapeutic for inflammatory disorders associated with bone loss.

Abstract
Both HIV infection and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) treatment adversely impact bone metabolism and may lead to osteopenia, which has critical implications for youth with HIV (YWH). This study evaluates changes in the biomarkers of bone metabolism and inflammation among YWH receiving initial treatment with TDF- and non-TDF-containing antiretroviral therapies (ARTs). YWH [n = 23, median age 21 years (range 18-24), 87% male, 61% African American] were assessed for inflammatory and bone metabolism biomarkers at enrollment, after 48 weeks of TDF-containing ART, and 96 weeks of ART without TDF with continued viral suppression. Spearman's rank correlation evaluated biomarker associations. Bone alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, and osteopontin increased after TDF treatment. All fell after TDF was discontinued. Levels of RANKL and osteoprotegerin did not change throughout the study. There was little correlation between biomarkers of bone metabolism and either macrophage or lymphocyte activation at any time point. Our results establish baseline associations between bone metabolism and immune biomarkers for this population, and find that before CD4 T cell decline chronic inflammation does not perturb biomarkers of bone metabolism among YWH. The adverse effects of TDF on bone health may be marginal for YWH at the early stages of disease.

Abstract
Chemokines are secreted by a wide variety of cells; their functions are dependent on the binding to their chemokine receptors (CCRs) which induce directed chemotaxis in nearby responsive cells. Chemokines and their receptors can be induced under several different conditions. Based on data from clinical studies showing an increased expression of chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3) in circulating monocytes of human subjects with lower bone mineral density (BMD) as compared to those with high BMD, we predicted a role for CCR3 in the development of peak bone mass. We, therefore, first evaluated the expression pattern of Ccr3 in bone cells, in comparison to other CCRs, that have common ligands with CCR3. While Ccr1 and Ccr3 messenger RNA (mRNA) levels increased during both RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and AA-induced osteoblast differentiation, the levels of Ccr5 mRNA only increased during osteoblast differentiation. To examine if CCR3 influences osteoclast and/or osteoblast differentiation, we evaluated the consequence of blocking CCR3 function using neutralizing antibody on the expression of osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation markers. Treatment with CCR3 neutralizing antibody increased mRNA levels of Trap and cathepsin K in osteoclasts and osteocalcin in osteoblasts compared to cells treated with control IgG. Based on these in vitro findings, we next assessed the role of CCR3 in vivo by evaluating the skeletal phenotypes of Ccr3 knockout and corresponding control littermate mice. Disruption of CCR3 resulted in a significant increase in femur areal BMD at 5 and 8 weeks of age by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Micro-CT analysis revealed a 25% increase in trabecular bone mass at 10 weeks of age caused by corresponding changes in trabecular number and thickness compared to wild type mice. Based on our findings, we conclude that disruption of CCR3 function favors bone mass accumulation, in part via enhancement of bone metabolism. Understanding the molecular pathways through which CCR3 acts to regulate osteoclast and osteoblast functions could lead to new therapeutic approaches to prevent inflammation-induced bone loss.

Abstract
Progressive understanding of the underlying pathophysiology of axial spondyloarthritis has successfully translated into innovative therapeutic strategies and successful management of patients in the clinic. This review summarizes the key roles of the pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-17 in the onset and progression of disease and how these cytokines are instrumental in shaping the concept that enthesitis is a key feature of axial spondyloarthritis. Advances in immunological technologies have led to the important insight that different cell populations, part of both the innate and adaptive immune system, play a key role in axial spondyloarthritis. In addition to inflammation, structural damage to the axial skeleton, in particular progressive ankylosis of the sacroiliac joints and the spine, is key to the outcome of patients. Novel data integrate the role of pro-inflammatory cytokines and enthesitis in this context.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common systemic autoimmune disease. Its major manifestation is persistent joint inflammation, which can lead to bone destruction and severe disability. The immunopathogenesis of RA is very complex, involving both innate and adaptive immune systems. Recently, the discovery of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) has revolutionized the diagnosis and our understanding of the immunopathogenesis of RA. The presence of ACPAs is also closely linked to the disease activity of RA. Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that ACPAs and protein citrullination are key issues for the development of RA. We have summarized the recent study results in this review. The first theory concerning the pathogenesis of RA proposed that ACPAs link the well-known genetic and environmental risk factors for developing RA. However, due to the close association between joint inflammation and ACPAs, a more direct role of ACPAs in the immunopathogenesis of RA is anticipated. Within the past 10 years, many studies, including some of our own, have shown that ACPAs can promote an inflammatory response through complement activation, formation of neutrophil extracellular traps, and direct binding to key players, including monocytes, osteoclasts, and osteoblasts, in the mediation of bone destruction in the joints of RA patients. We also present some new perspectives and issues that need to be further investigated.

Abstract
Disruption of bone remodelling by diseases such as osteoporosis results in an imbalance between bone formation by osteoblasts and resorption by osteoclasts. Research into these metabolic bone disorders is primarily performed in vivo; however, in the last decade there has been increased interest in generating in vitro models that can reduce or replace our reliance on animal testing. With recent advances in biomaterials and tissue engineering the feasibility of laboratory-based alternatives is growing; however, to date there are no established in vitro models of bone remodelling. In vivo, remodelling is performed by organised packets of osteoblasts and osteoclasts called bone multicellular units (BMUs). The key determinant of whether osteoclasts form and remodelling occurs is the ratio between RANKL, a cytokine which stimulates osteoclastogenesis, and OPG, its inhibitor. This review initially details the different circumstances, conditions, and factors which have been found to modulate the RANKL:OPG ratio, and fundamental factors to be considered if a robust in vitro model is to be developed. Following this, an examination of what has been achieved thus far in replicating remodelling in vitro using three-dimensional co-cultures is performed, before overviewing how such systems are already being utilised in the study of associated diseases, such as metastatic cancer and dental disorders. Finally, a discussion of the most important considerations to be incorporated going forward is presented. This details the need for the use of cells capable of endogenously producing the required cytokines, application of mechanical stimulation, and the presence of appropriate hormones in order to produce a robust model of bone remodelling.

Cortical bone loss is an early feature of nonradiographic axial spondyloarthritis. Arthritis Res Ther 2018; 20:202.

Abstract
Background In the present study, we investigated bone geometry, microstructure, and volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) in a cohort of patients with nonradiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA) in order to define the early bone changes occurring in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and to define potential factors for deterioration of bone microstructure. Methods Patients with axSpA (n = 107) and healthy control subjects (n = 50) of similar age and sex were assessed for geometric, volumetric, and microstructural parameters of bone using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) at the radius. Additionally, demographic and disease-specific characteristics of patients with axSpA were recorded. Results Patients with nr-axSpA and control subjects were comparable in age, sex, and body mass index. Geometric and microstructural analysis by HR-pQCT revealed a significantly reduced cortical area (p = 0.022) and cortical thickness (p = 0.006) in patients with nr-axSpA compared with control subjects. Total and cortical vBMD were significantly reduced in patients with nr-axSpA (p = 0.042 and p = 0.007, respectively), whereas there was no difference in trabecular vBMD. Patients with a short disease duration (< 2 years; n = 46) also showed significant reduction of cortical thickness and cortical area compared with control subjects. Patients with disease duration > 2 years (n = 55) additionally developed a decrease of cortical and total vBMD. Multiple regression models identified male sex to be associated with lower cortical vBMD and female sex to be associated with lower trabecular vBMD. Conclusions Bone microstructure in patients with nr-axSpA is characterized primarily by deterioration of cortical bone. Cortical bone loss starts early and is evident within the first 2 years of the disease.

Abstract
The role of immune system in various bone pathologies, such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis is now well established. This had led to the emergence of a modern field of systems biology called as osteoimmunology, an integrated research between fields of immunology and bone biology under one umbrella. Osteoporosis is one of the most common inflammatory bone loss condition with more than 200 million individuals affected worldwide. T helper (Th) cells along with various other immune cells are major players involved in bone homeostasis. In the present review, we specifically discuss the role of various defined T lymphocyte subsets (Th cells comprising Th1, Th2, Th9, Th17, Th22, regulatory T cells, follicular helper T cells, natural killer T cells, γδ T cells, and CD8+ T cells) in the pathophysiology of osteoporosis. The study of the specific role of immune system in osteoporosis has now been proposed by our group as “immunoporosis: the immunology of osteoporosis” with special emphasis on the role of various subsets of T lymphocytes. The establishment of this new field had been need of the hour due to the emergence of novel roles of various T cell lymphocytes in accelerated bone loss observed during osteoporosis. Activated T cells either directly or indirectly through the secretion of various cytokines and factors modulate bone health and thereby regulate bone remodeling. Several studies have summarized the role of inflammation in pathogenesis of osteoporosis but very few reports had delineated the precise role of various T cell subsets in the pathobiology of osteoporosis. The present review thus for the first time clearly highlights and summarizes the role of various T lymphocytes in the development and pathophysiology of osteoporosis, giving birth to a new field of biology termed as “immunoporosis”. This novel field will thus provide an overview of the nexus between the cellular components of both bone and immune systems, responsible for the observed bone loss in osteoporosis. A molecular insight into the upcoming and novel field of immunoporosis would thus leads to development of innovative approaches for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
The last two decades have marked a growing understanding of the interaction occurring between bone and immune cells. The chronic inflammation and immune system dysfunction commonly observed to occur during the ageing process and as part of a range of other pathological conditions, commonly associated with osteoporosis has led to the recognition of these processes as important determinants of bone disease. This is further supported by the recognition that the immune and bone systems in fact share regulatory mechanisms and progenitor molecules. Research into this complex synergy has provided a better understanding of the immunopathogenesis underlying bone diseases such as osteoporosis. However, existing research has largely focussed on delineating the role played by inflammation in pathogenic bone destruction, despite increasing evidence implicating autoantibodies as important drivers of osteoporosis. This review shall attempt to provide a comprehensive overview of existing research examining the role played by autoantibodies in osteoporosis in order to determine the potential for further research in this area. Autoantibodies represent promising targets for the improved treatment and diagnosis of inflammatory bone loss.

Abstract
Dried plum (DP), a rich source of polyphenols has been shown to have bone-preserving properties in both animal models of osteoporosis and postmenopausal women. We evaluated if DP alleviated the destruction of joints in transgenic mice (TG) that overexpress human tumor necrosis factor (TNF), a genetic model of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A four-week treatment of 20% DP diet in TG slowed the onset of arthritis and reduced bone erosions in the joints compared to TG on a regular diet. This was associated with fewer tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) positive cells, suggesting decreased osteoclastogenesis. A DP diet also produced significant protection of articular cartilage and reduction of synovitis. Cultures of human synovial fibroblast in the presence of TNF showed a significant increase in inflammatory interleukin (IL)-1β, chemokines (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1: MCP1 & macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha: MIP1α), cartilage matrix metalloproteinases (MMP1&3), and an osteoclastogenic cytokine (receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand: RANKL) compared to controls. Addition of neochlorogenic acid (NC), a major polyphenol in DP to these cultures resulted in down-regulation of these genes. In the cultures of mouse bone marrow macrophage, NC also repressed TNF-induced formation of osteoclasts and mRNA levels of cathepsin K and MMP9 through inhibition of nuclear factor of activated T-cells, cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1) expression and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activation. Our data suggested that dietary supplementation with DP inhibited TNF singling; leading to decreased erosions of bone and articular cartilage as well as synovitis.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation predisposes to poor bone health. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) experience androgen excess, ovulatory disturbances, insulin resistance, abdominal adiposity and chronic inflammation. Our objective was to investigate the relationships among bone health parameters, chronic subclinical inflammation and anthropometric measures in premenopausal women with and without PCOS. In 61 premenopausal women, 22 women with PCOS and 39 controls, we assessed bone parameters (total hip bone mineral density [BMD] by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and radius strength-strain index [SSI] by peripheral quantitative computed tomography), inflammation (C-reactive protein/albumin), oxidative stress (leukocyte telomere length, urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine); hemoglobin A1c; anthropometric measures (body mass index, waist-to-height ratio, cross-sectional muscle area). A diagnosis of PCOS negatively predicted (beta = -0.251, p = 0.022) hip BMD in a regression model including weight. In women with PCOS, inflammation, which was predicted by increased waist-to-height ratio and current use of oral contraceptives, attenuated the positive influences of increased weight and muscle mass on bone strength and was inversely associated with radial SSI (R2 = 0.25, p = 0.018). In conclusion, chronic subclinical inflammation may negatively impact bone physiology in women with PCOS. Strategies focused on reducing abdominal adiposity and avoiding medications that increase inflammation may counter this effect.

Abstract
Osteoporosis develops when the rate of osteoclastic bone breakdown (resorption) exceeds that of osteoblastic bone formation, which leads to loss of BMD and deterioration of bone structure and strength. Osteoporosis increases the risk of fragility fractures, a cause of substantial morbidity and mortality, especially in elderly patients. This imbalance between bone formation and bone resorption is brought about by natural ageing processes, but is frequently exacerbated by a number of pathological conditions. Of importance to the aetiology of osteoporosis are findings over the past two decades attesting to a deep integration of the skeletal system with the immune system (the immuno-skeletal interface (ISI)). Although protective of the skeleton under physiological conditions, the ISI might contribute to bone destruction in a growing number of pathophysiological states. Although numerous research groups have investigated how the immune system affects basal and pathological osteoclastic bone resorption, recent findings suggest that the reach of the adaptive immune response extends to the regulation of osteoblastic bone formation. This Review examines the evolution of the field of osteoimmunology and how advances in our understanding of the ISI might lead to novel approaches to prevent and treat bone loss, and avert fractures.

Abstract
Leptin has been described to have a crucial role in bone homeostasis by systemic as well as local action. Systemically, leptin seems to inhibit bone formation controlled by a feedback loop including osteocalcin and insulin. Even though the action seems to be bone site specific, as well as gender- and time-dependent, the results showing the interaction of these three factors are in part still inconsistent. In this article the complex effects of leptin, insulin, and osteocalcin on bone and fat metabolism are summarized.

Abstract
Hydrogels composed of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have become an important alternative to replace traditional inorganic scaffolds for tissue engineering. Here, we describe a novel nanocrystalline material with 2D morphology that was synthesized by tuning the crystallization of the sodium-magnesium-phosphate system. We discovered that the sodium ion can regulate the precipitation of magnesium phosphate by interacting with the crystal's surface causing a preferential crystal growth that results in 2D morphology. The 2D nanomaterial gave rise to a physical hydrogel that presented extreme thixotropy, injectability, biocompatibility, bioresorption, and long-term stability. The nanocrystalline material was characterized in vitro and in vivo and we discovered that it presented unique biological properties. Magnesium phosphate nanosheets accelerated bone healing and osseointegration by enhancing collagen formation, osteoblasts differentiation, and osteoclasts proliferation through up-regulation of COL1A1, RunX2, ALP, OCN, and OPN. In summary, the 2D magnesium phosphate nanosheets could bring a paradigm shift in the field of minimally invasive orthopedic and craniofacial interventions because it is the only material available that can be injected through high gauge needles into bone defects in order to accelerate bone healing and osseointegration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To investigate the macro- and microstructural changes of bone in patients with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] and to define the factors associated with bone loss in IBD. METHODS A total of 148 subjects, 59 with Crohn's disease [CD], 39 with ulcerative colitis [UC], and 50 healthy controls were assessed for the geometric, volumetric and microstructural properties of bone using high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography. In addition, demographic and disease-specific characteristics of IBD patients were recorded. RESULTS IBD patients and controls were comparable in age, sex, and body mass index. Total [p = 0.001], cortical [p < 0.001], and trabecular volumetric bone mineral density [BMD] [p = 0.03] were significantly reduced in IBD patients compared with healthy controls. Geometric and microstructural analysis revealed significantly lower cortical area [p = 0.001] and cortical thickness [p < 0.001] without differences in cortical porosity, pore volume, or pore diameter. CD showed a more severe bone phenotype than UC: cortical bone loss was observed in both diseases, but CD additionally showed profound trabecular bone loss with reduced trabecular BMD [p = 0.008], bone volume [p = 0.008], and trabecular thickness [p = 0.009]. Multivariate regression models identified the diagnosis of CD, female sex, lower body mass index, and the lack of remission as factors independently associated with bone loss in IBD. CONCLUSION IBD patients develop significant cortical bone loss, impairing bone strength. Trabecular bone loss is limited to CD patients, who exhibit a more severe bone phenotype compared with UC patients.

Abstract
The autonomous nervous system regulates bone mass through the sympathetic and parasympathetic arms. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) favors bone loss whereas the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) promotes bone mass accrual. Donepezil, a central-acting cholinergic agonist, has been shown to down-regulate SNS and up-regulate PNS signaling tones. Accordingly, we hypothesize that the use of donepezil could have beneficial effects in regulating bone mass. To test our hypothesis, two groups of healthy female mice were treated either with donepezil or saline. Differences in body metabolism and bone mass of the treated groups were compared. Body and visceral fat weights as well as serum leptin level were increased in donepezil-treated mice compared to control, suggesting that donepezil effects on SNS influenced metabolic activity. Donepezil-treated mice had better bone quality than controls due to a decrease in osteoclasts number. These results indicate that donepezil is able to affect whole body energy metabolism and favors bone mass in young female WT mice.
