[PMID: 38840731 PMCID: PMC11150975 DOI: 10.1016/j.reth.2024.03.019] [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: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent degenerative joint disease worldwide. Effective management for early-stage OA is crucial. Denosumab (DS) has been widely used to treat osteoporosis (OP) and rheumatoid arthritis, but its potential for managing OA remains clear. We assessed the effects of DS on osteoclast activity and chondrocyte apoptosis using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) assay, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), flow cytometry, and TUNEL staining. To assess the impact of DS on the NF-κB pathway, we performed Western blot and immunofluorescence staining. Additionally, we used an OA model to explore the influence of DS on subchondral bone remodeling and cartilage degeneration in vivo. We found that DS hindered receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting the activity of the NF-κB pathway. Besides, DS alleviated reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced apoptosis in chondrocytes by regulating the expression of genes related to apoptosis. Moreover, we observed an attenuation of OA-related subchondral bone remodeling and cartilage degeneration in vivo. Our findings indicate that DS could effectively suppress osteoclast activity and chondrocyte apoptosis, thereby mitigating OA-related subchondral bone remodeling and cartilage degeneration. These results provide a mechanistic basis for using DS to treat OA.

Abstract
Kashin-Beck Disease (KBD), an osteoarticular disorder, is potentially influenced by several factors, among which selenium deficiency and HT-2 mycotoxin exposure are considered significant. However, the combined effect of these factors on femoral development remains unclear, Conducted over eight weeks on forty-eight male mice categorized into control, selenium-deficient, and HT-2 toxin-exposed groups, including dual-exposure sets, this study comprehensively monitored body weight, bone metabolism markers, and cellular health. Employing biomechanical analysis, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), we unearthed a reduction in body weight due to HT-2 toxin alone, with selenium deficiency exacerbating these effects synergistically. Our results unveil that both factors independently affect bone metabolism, yet their confluence leads to a pronounced degradation of bone health parameters, including alterations in calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D levels, alongside marked changes in osteoblast and osteoclast activity and bone cell structures. The notable damage to femoral cortical and trabecular architectures underscores the perilous interplay between dietary selenium absence and HT-2 toxin presence, necessitating a deeper understanding of their separate and joint effects on bone integrity. These discoveries underscore the imperative for a nuanced approach to toxicology research and public health policy, highlighting the pivotal influence of environmental and nutritional factors on skeletal well-being.

Abstract
Inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, periodontitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and celiac disease, disrupt the delicate balance between bone resorption and formation, leading to inflammatory bone loss. Conventional approaches to tackle this issue encompass pharmaceutical interventions and surgical procedures. Nevertheless, pharmaceutical interventions exhibit limited efficacy, while surgical treatments impose trauma and significant financial burden upon patients. Biomaterials show outstanding spatiotemporal controllability, possess a remarkable specific surface area, and demonstrate exceptional reactivity. In the present era, the advancement of emerging biomaterials has bestowed upon more efficacious solutions for combatting the detrimental consequences of inflammatory bone loss. In this review, the advances of biomaterials for ameliorating inflammatory bone loss are listed. Additionally, the advantages and disadvantages of various biomaterials-mediated strategies are summarized. Finally, the challenges and perspectives of biomaterials are analyzed. This review aims to provide new possibilities for developing more advanced biomaterials toward inflammatory bone loss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with multiple myeloma exhibit malignant osteolytic bone disease due to excessive osteoclast formation and function. We recently identified that osteoclastogenic stimulator selenoprotein W (SELENOW) is upregulated via ERK signaling and downregulated via p38 signaling during receptor activator of nuclear factor (NF)-κΒ ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation. In the intrinsic physiological process, RANKL-induced downregulation of SELENOW maintains proper osteoclast differentiation; in contrast, forced overexpression of SELENOW leads to overactive osteoclast formation and function. METHODS AND RESULTS We observed that SELENOW is highly expressed in multiple myeloma-derived peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and mature osteoclasts when compared to healthy controls. Also, the level of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), a pathological osteoclastogenic factor, is increased in the PBMCs and serum of patients with multiple myeloma. ERK activation by TNFα was more marked and sustained than that by RANKL, allowing SELENOW upregulation. Excessive expression of SELENOW in osteoclast progenitors and mature osteoclasts derived from multiple myeloma facilitated efficient nuclear translocation of osteoclastogenic transcription factors NF-κB and NFATc1, which are favorable for osteoclast formation. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest a possibility that feedforward signaling of osteoclastogenic SELENOW by TNFα derived from multiple myeloma induces overactive osteoclast differentiation, leading to bone loss during multiple myeloma.

Kurarinone, a flavonoid from Radix Sophorae Flavescentis, inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis in mouse bone marrow-derived monocyte/macrophages. NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2024:10.1007/s00210-024-03100-z.

Abstract
Inflammation-induced osteoclast proliferation is a crucial contributor to impaired bone metabolism. Kurarinone (KR), a flavonoid extracted from the Radix Sophorae Flavescentis, exhibits notable anti-inflammatory properties. Nevertheless, the precise influence of KR on osteoclast formation remains unclear. This study's objective was to assess the impact of KR on osteoclast activity in vitro and unravel its underlying mechanism. Initially, a target network for KR-osteoclastogenesis-osteoporosis was constructed using network pharmacology. Subsequently, the intersecting targets were identified through the Venny platform and a PPI network was created using Cytoscape 3.9.1. Key targets within the network were identified employing topological algorithms. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis were then performed on these targets to explore their specific functions and pathways. Additionally, molecular docking of potential core targets of KR was conducted, and the results were validated through cell experiments. A total of 83 target genes overlapped between KR and osteoclastogenesis-osteoporosis targets. Enrichment analysis revealed their role in inflammatory response, protein tyrosine kinase activity, osteoclast differentiation, and MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways. PPI analysis and molecular docking demonstrate that key targets MAPK14 and MAPK8 exhibit more stable binding with KR compared to other proteins. In vitro experiments demonstrate that KR effectively inhibits osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption without cellular toxicity. It suppresses key osteoclast genes (NFATc1, c-Fos, TRAP, MMP9, Ctsk, Atp6v2), hinders IκB-α degradation, and inhibits ERK and JNK phosphorylation, while not affecting p38 phosphorylation. The results indicate that KR may inhibit osteoclast maturation and bone resorption by blocking NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways, suggesting its potential as a natural therapeutic agent for osteoporosis.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2024:e2401620.

Abstract
Osteoclast hyperactivation stands as a significant pathological factor contributing to the emergence of bone disorders driven by heightened oxidative stress levels. The modulation of the redox balance to scavenge reactive oxygen species emerges as a viable approach to addressing this concern. Selenoproteins, characterized by selenocysteine (SeCys2) as the active center, are crucial for selenium-based antioxidative stress therapy for inflammatory diseases. This study reveals that surface-active elemental selenium (Se) nanoparticles, particularly lentinan-Se (LNT-Se), exhibit enhanced cellular accumulation and accelerated metabolism to SeCys2, the primary active Se form in biological systems. Consequently, LNT-Se demonstrates significant inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. Furthermore, in vivo studies underscore the superior therapeutic efficacy of LNT-Se over SeCys2, potentially attributable to the enhanced stability and safety profile of LNT-Se. Specifically, LNT-Se effectively modulates the expression of the selenoprotein GPx1, thereby exerting regulatory control over osteoclastogenesis inhibition, and the prevention of osteolysis. In summary, these results suggest that the prompt activation of selenoproteins by Se nanoparticles serves to suppress osteoclastogenesis and pathological bone loss by upregulating GPx1. Moreover, the utilization of bioactive Se species presents a promising avenue for effectively managing bone disorders.

Abstract
RATIONALE Numerous studies have established a robust association between bone morrow microvascular diseases and osteoporosis. This study sought to investigate the relationship between alterations in trans-cortical vessel (TCVs) and the onset of osteoporosis in various mouse models. METHODS Aged mice, ovariectomized mice, and db/db mice, were utilized as osteoporosis models. TCVs in the tibia were detected using tissue clearing and light sheet fluorescence microscopy imaging. Femurs bone mass were analyzed using micro-CT scanning. Correlations between the number of TCVs and bone mass were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. RESULTS All osteoporosis mouse models showed a significant reduction in the number of TCVs compared to the control group. Correlation analysis revealed a positive association between the number of TCVs and bone mass. TCVs were also expressed high levels of CD31 and EMCN proteins as type H vessels. CONCLUSIONS This study underscores a consistent correlation between the number of TCVs and bone mass. Moreover, TCVs may serve as a potential biomarker for bone mass evaluation.

Abstract
To promote bone repair, it is desirable to develop three-dimensional multifunctional fiber scaffolds. The densely stacked and tightly arranged conventional two-dimensional electrospun fibers hinder cell penetration into the scaffold. Most of the existing three-dimensional structural materials are isotropic and monofunctional. In this research, a Janus nanofibrous scaffold based on silk fibroin/polycaprolactone (SF/PCL) was fabricated. SF-encapsulated SeNPs demonstrated stability and resistance to aggregation. The outside layer (SF/PCL/Se) of the Janus nanofiber scaffold displayed a structured arrangement of fibers, facilitating cell growth guidance and impeding cell invasion. The inside layer (SF/PCL/HA) featured a porous structure fostering cell adhesion. The Janus fiber scaffold containing SeNPs notably suppressed S. aureus and E. coli activities, correlating with SeNPs concentration. In vitro, findings indicated considerable enhancement in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts and upregulation of genes linked to osteogenic differentiation with exposure to the SF/PCL/HA/Se Janus nanofibrous scaffold. Moreover, in vivo, experiments demonstrated successful critical bone defect repair in mouse skulls using the SF/PCL/HA/Se Janus nanofiber scaffold. These findings highlight the potential of the SF/PCL-based Janus nanofibrous scaffold, integrating SeNPs and nHA, as a promising biomaterial in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
14-3-3η can regulate the cell cycle, immunity, inflammation and the secretion of matrix metalloproteinases, while it may also be involved in the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and promote bone injury. Therefore, the present meta-analysis focused on the dysregulated serum levels of 14-3-3η and its association with osteoporosis in patients with RA. Studies comparing the serum levels of 14-3-3η between patients with RA and healthy controls (HCs) or patients with RA with different bone mineral densities were retrieved from the EMBASE, Web of Science, PubMed and Cochrane databases. A total of 14 studies comprising 2,164 patients with RA and 1,136 HCs were included and analysed. Pooled analyses showed that the serum levels of 14-3-3η were enhanced in patients with RA compared with HCs [standardized mean difference (SMD): 1.34; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-1.66; P<0.001]. In addition, the serum levels of 14-3-3η were also significantly higher in patients with RA with osteoporosis and osteopenia compared with those with normal bone mass (SMD: 1.96; 95% CI: 0.01-3.92; P=0.049 and SMD: 0.80; 95% CI: 0.09-1.52; P=0.028, respectively). Begg's and Egger's tests demonstrated that the publication bias for each evaluated indicator was low (all P>0.05). However, sensitivity analyses revealed that the findings were not very robust, which may be due to the omission of several individual studies. Overall, the present meta-analysis suggested that the serum levels of 14-3-3η were elevated and were associated with a higher risk of osteoporosis in patients with RA, thus supporting its potency as a circulating biomarker in the management of RA.

Current Understanding of Human Polymorphism in Selenoprotein Genes: A Review of Its Significance as a Risk Biomarker. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1402. [PMID: 38338681 PMCID: PMC10855570 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25031402] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2023] [Revised: 11/04/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Selenium has been proven to influence several biological functions, showing to be an essential micronutrient. The functional studies demonstrated the benefits of a balanced selenium diet and how its deficiency is associated with diverse diseases, especially cancer and viral diseases. Selenium is an antioxidant, protecting the cells from damage, enhancing the immune system response, preventing cardiovascular diseases, and decreasing inflammation. Selenium can be found in its inorganic and organic forms, and its main form in the cells is the selenocysteine incorporated into selenoproteins. Twenty-five selenoproteins are currently known in the human genome: glutathione peroxidases, iodothyronine deiodinases, thioredoxin reductases, selenophosphate synthetase, and other selenoproteins. These proteins lead to the transport of selenium in the tissues, protect against oxidative damage, contribute to the stress of the endoplasmic reticulum, and control inflammation. Due to these functions, there has been growing interest in the influence of polymorphisms in selenoproteins in the last two decades. Selenoproteins' gene polymorphisms may influence protein structure and selenium concentration in plasma and its absorption and even impact the development and progression of certain diseases. This review aims to elucidate the role of selenoproteins and understand how their gene polymorphisms can influence the balance of physiological conditions. In this polymorphism review, we focused on the PubMed database, with only articles published in English between 2003 and 2023. The keywords used were "selenoprotein" and "polymorphism". Articles that did not approach the theme subject were excluded. Selenium and selenoproteins still have a long way to go in molecular studies, and several works demonstrated the importance of their polymorphisms as a risk biomarker for some diseases, especially cardiovascular and thyroid diseases, diabetes, and cancer.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is a naturally occurring essential micronutrient that is required for human health. The existing form of Se includes inorganic and organic. In contrast to the inorganic Se, which has low bioavailability and high cytotoxicity, organic Se exhibits higher bioavailability, lower toxicity, and has a more diverse composition and structure. This review presents the nutritional benefits of Se by listing and linking selenoprotein (SeP) functions to evidence of health benefits. The research status of SeP from foods in recent years is introduced systematically, particularly the sources, biochemical transformation and speciation, and the bioactivities. These aspects are elaborated with references for further research and utilization of organic Se compounds in the field of health.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is primarily driven by an imbalance between bone resorption and formation, stemming from enhanced osteoclast activity during bone remodeling. At the crux of this mechanism lies the pivotal RANK-RANKL-OPG axis. In our study, we designed two binding-induced fibrillogenesis (BIF) peptides, namely BIFP and BIFY, targeting RANK and RANKL, respectively. These BIF peptides, with distinct hydrophilic and hydrophobic characteristics, assemble into nanoparticles (NPs) in aqueous solution. Through specific ligand-receptor interactions, these NPs efficiently target and bind to specific proteins, resulting in the formation of fibrous networks that effectively inhibit the RANK-RANKL associations. Experiments have confirmed the potent inhibitory effects of peptides on both osteoclast differentiation and function. Compared with the +RANKL controls, BIFP and BIFY demonstrated a more remarkable reduction in tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive cells, achieving an impressive decline of 82.8% and 70.7%, respectively. Remarkably, the administration of BIFP led to a substantial reduction in bone resorption pit area by 17.4%, compared to a significant increase of 92.4% in the +RANKL groups. In vivo experiments on an ovariectomized mouse model demonstrated that the BIFP treated group exhibited an impressive 2.6-fold elevation in bone mineral density and an astounding 4.0-fold enhancement in bone volume/total volume as against those of the PBS-treated group. Overall, BIF peptides demonstrate remarkable abilities to impede osteoclast differentiation, presenting promising prospects for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Antimicrobial and anti-viral effects of selenium nanoparticles and selenoprotein based strategies: COVID-19 and beyond. J Drug Deliv Sci Technol 2023; 86:104663. [PMID: 37362903 PMCID: PMC10249347 DOI: 10.1016/j.jddst.2023.104663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Revised: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 06/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023]
Abstract
Deficiency of selenium (Se) has been described in a significant number of COVID-19 patients having a higher incidence of mortality, which makes it a pertinent issue to be addressed clinically for effective management of the COVID-19 pandemic. Se nanoparticles (SeNPs) provide a unique option for managing the havoc caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. SeNPs possess promising anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects by virtue of their nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-stimulator of activated B cells (NFκB), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPKs), and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) modulatory activity. In addition, SeNPs possess remarkable immunomodulatory effects, making them a suitable option for supplementation with a much lower risk of toxicity compared to their elemental counterpart. Further, SeNPs have been shown to curtail viral and microbial infections, thus, making it a novel means to halt viral growth. In addition, it can be administered in the form of aerosol spray, direct injection, or infused thin-film transdermal patches to reduce the spread of this highly contagious viral infection. Moreover, a considerable decrease in the expression of selenoprotein along with enhanced expression of IL-6 in COVID-19 suggests a potential association among selenoprotein expression and COVID-19. In this review, we highlight the unique antimicrobial and antiviral properties of SeNPs and the immunomodulatory potential of selenoproteins. We provide the rationale behind their potentially interesting properties and further exploration in the context of microbial and viral infections. Further, the importance of selenoproteins and their role in maintaining a successful immune response along with their association to Se status is summarized.

Abstract
Current clinical approaches to osteoporosis primarily target osteoclast biology, overlooking the synergistic role of bone cells, immune cells, cytokines, and inorganic components in creating an abnormal osteoporotic microenvironment. Here, metal-polyDNA nanoparticles (Ca-polyCpG MDNs) composed of Ca2+ and ultralong single-stranded CpG sequences were developed to reconstruct the osteoporotic microenvironment and suppress osteoporosis. Ca-polyCpG MDNs can neutralize osteoclast-secreted hydrogen ions, provide calcium repletion, promote remineralization, and repair bone defects. Besides, the immune-adjuvant polyCpG in MDNs could induce the secretion of osteoclastogenesis inhibitor interleukin-12 and reduce the expression of osteoclast function effector protein to inhibit osteoclast differentiation, further reducing osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. PPi4- generated during the rolling circle amplification reaction acts as bisphosphonate analog and enhances bone targeting of Ca-polyCpG MDNs. In ovariectomized mouse and rabbit models, Ca-polyCpG MDNs prevented bone resorption and promoted bone repair by restoring the osteoporotic microenvironment, providing valuable insights into osteoporosis therapy.

The Role of Trace Elements and Minerals in Osteoporosis: A Review of Epidemiological and Laboratory Findings. Biomolecules 2023; 13:1006.

Abstract
The objective of the present study was to review recent epidemiological and clinical data on the association between selected minerals and trace elements and osteoporosis, as well as to discuss the molecular mechanisms underlying these associations. We have performed a search in the PubMed-Medline and Google Scholar databases using the MeSH terms "osteoporosis", "osteogenesis", "osteoblast", "osteoclast", and "osteocyte" in association with the names of particular trace elements and minerals through 21 March 2023. The data demonstrate that physiological and nutritional levels of trace elements and minerals promote osteogenic differentiation through the up-regulation of BMP-2 and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, as well as other pathways. miRNA and epigenetic effects were also involved in the regulation of the osteogenic effects of trace minerals. The antiresorptive effect of trace elements and minerals was associated with the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. At the same time, the effect of trace elements and minerals on bone health appeared to be dose-dependent with low doses promoting an osteogenic effect, whereas high doses exerted opposite effects which promoted bone resorption and impaired bone formation. Concomitant with the results of the laboratory studies, several clinical trials and epidemiological studies demonstrated that supplementation with Zn, Mg, F, and Sr may improve bone quality, thus inducing antiosteoporotic effects.

Abstract
Selenium is a trace mineral that is essential for health. After being obtained from food and taken up by the liver, selenium performs various physiological functions in the body in the form of selenoproteins, which are best known for their redox activity and anti-inflammatory properties. Selenium stimulates the activation of immune cells and is important for the activation of the immune system. Selenium is also essential for the maintenance of brain function. Selenium supplements can regulate lipid metabolism, cell apoptosis, and autophagy, and have displayed significant alleviating effects in most cardiovascular diseases. However, the effect of increased selenium intake on the risk of cancer remains unclear. Elevated serum selenium levels are associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, and this relationship is complex and nonlinear. Selenium supplementation seems beneficial to some extent; however, existing studies have not fully explained the influence of selenium on various diseases. Further, more intervention trials are needed to verify the beneficial or harmful effects of selenium supplementation in various diseases.

Selenium-modified bone cement promotes osteoporotic bone defect repair in ovariectomized rats by restoring GPx1-mediated mitochondrial antioxidant functions. Regen Biomater 2023; 10:rbad011. [PMID: 36852397 PMCID: PMC9960915 DOI: 10.1093/rb/rbad011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Over-accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes mitochondrial dysfunction and impairs the osteogenic potential of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs). Selenium (Se) protects BMMSCs from oxidative stress-induced damage; however, it is unknown whether Se supplementation can promote the repair of osteoporotic bone defects by rescuing the impaired osteogenic potential of osteoporotic BMMSCs (OP-BMMSCs). In vitro treatment with sodium selenite (Na2SeO3) successfully improved the osteogenic differentiation of OP-BMMSCs, as demonstrated by increased matrix mineralization and up-regulated osteogenic genes expression. More importantly, Na2SeO3 restored the impaired mitochondrial functions of OP-BMMSCs, significantly up-regulated glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPx1) expression and attenuated the intracellular ROS and mitochondrial superoxide. Silencing of Gpx1 completely abrogated the protective effects of Na2SeO3 on mitochondrial functions of OP-BMMSCs, suggesting the important role of GPx1 in protecting OP-BMMSCs from oxidative stress. We further fabricated Se-modified bone cement based on silk fibroin and calcium phosphate cement (SF/CPC). After 8 weeks of implantation, Se-modified bone cement significantly promoted bone defect repair, evidenced by the increased new bone tissue formation and enhanced GPx1 expression in ovariectomized rats. These findings revealed that Se supplementation rescued mitochondrial functions of OP-BMMSCs through activation of the GPx1-mediated antioxidant pathway, and more importantly, supplementation with Se in SF/CPC accelerated bone regeneration in ovariectomized rats, representing a novel strategy for treating osteoporotic bone fractures or defects.

Epimedii Folium and Ligustri Lucidi Fructus Promote Osteoblastogenesis and Inhibit Osteoclastogenesis against Osteoporosis via Acting on Osteoblast-Osteoclast Communication. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2023; 2023:7212642. [PMID: 36760348 PMCID: PMC9904896 DOI: 10.1155/2023/7212642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Revised: 11/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
Osteoblast (OB) and osteoclast (OC) play important roles in bone formation and bone resorption, which can communicate with each other through cytokine paracrine. Previous studies have confirmed that Epimedii Folium (EF) and Ligustri Lucidi Fructus (LLF) used alone or in combination can treat osteoporosis (OP) through regulating bone remodeling, but the effects of EF and LLF on osteoblastogenesis, osteoclastogenesis, and OB-OC communication are unclear. In this study, we investigated the direct and indirect effects of EF and LLF on OBs and OCs via monoculture and coculture (transwell) models of OBs and OCs. We found that the combination of EF and LLF (EF&LLF) could promote osteoblastogenesis and inhibit osteoclastogenesis directly and indirectly. In order to study the mechanisms of EF&LLF on indirectly regulating osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis, we detected the expression of cytokines by which OBs and OCs could communicate with each other. We found that EF&LLF could downregulate the expression of RANKL and M-CSF and the protein ratio of RANKL/OPG of OBs and Atp6v0d2 expression of OCs and upregulate the expression of OPG and TGF-β1 of OBs and the expression of TGF-β1, BMP-2, and IGF-1 of OCs, indicating that EF&LLF could regulate cytokine expressions of OBs/OCs to affect OB-OC communication. In addition, EF&LLF had a better effect on regulating cytokines of OBs and OCs than EF or LLF in single use. This study suggested that EF&LLF exhibited the effects of promoting osteoblastogenesis and inhibiting osteoclastogenesis via acting on OB-OC communication and provided some scientific evidences for EF&LLF against OP.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) and Selenium (Se) are essential elements for bone health and have been studied extensively for its powerful osteogenesis and promoting bone regeneration. The purpose was to observe whether Co-modified 3D-printed β-tricalcium phosphate with Mg and Se could promote bone defect regeneration in an ovariectomized(OVX) rat model. The MC3T3-E1 cells were co-cultured with the leachate of β-TCP, Mg-TCP, and Mg/Se-TCP and induced to osteogenesis, and the cell viability, ROS, and osteogenic activity were observed by Cell Count Kit-8(CCK-8), fluorescent probe 2', 7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate, Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, Alizarin Red(RES) staining, western blotting(WB), and immunofluorescence. Then the β-TCP, Mg-TCP, and Mg/Se-TCP were implanted into the femoral epiphysis bone defect model of OVX rats for 12 weeks. Micro-CT and histology analysis were used to observe the therapeutic effect. In vitro results show that the cell mineralization and osteogenic activity of the Mg/Se-TCP group is significantly higher than the β-TCP group and Mg-TCP group. Protein expressions such as FOxO1, SIRT1, SOD2, Runx-2, Cola1a, and OC of the Mg/Se-TCP group are significantly higher than the Con group and the β-TCP group. The results of intracellular ROS and SIRT1 and SOD2 immunofluorescence showed that Mg/Se-TCP can restore the oxidative stress balance of osteoblasts. Micro-CT and histology analysis showed that treatment with Mg/Se-TCP showed the largest amount of bone tissue in the defect area (p < 0.05), and exhibited lower values of residual biological material (p < 0.05), compared to that of the β-TCP group and Mg-TCP group. Our research results confirm that Mg/Se-TCP can improve the activity and function of osteoblasts and enhance bone regeneration mediated by reducing intracellular ROS in OVX rat models. The release of Mg and Se during the degradation of Mg/Se-TCP can improve the local bone repair ability. At the same time, it can also inhibit cell ROS, and ultimately greatly promote local bone repair.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) plays an essential role in the growth of fish and performs its physiological functions mainly through incorporation into selenoproteins. Our previous studies suggested that the selenoprotein W gene (selenow) is sensitive to changes in dietary Se in rainbow trout. However, the molecular characterization and tissue expression pattern of selenow are still unknown. Here, we revealed the molecular characterization, the tissue expression pattern of rainbow trout selenow and analyzed its response to dietary Se. The open reading frame (ORF) of the selenow gene was composed of 393 base pairs (bp) and encodes a 130-amino-acid protein. The 3' untranslated region (UTR) was 372 bp with a selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) element. Remarkably, the rainbow trout selenow gene sequence was longer than those reported for mammals and most other fish. A β1-α1-β2-β3-β4-α2 pattern made up the secondary structure of SELENOW. Furthermore, multiple sequence alignment revealed that rainbow trout SELENOW showed a high level of identity with SELENOW from Salmo salar. In addition, the selenow gene was ubiquitously distributed in 13 tissues with various abundances and was predominantly expressed in muscle and brain. Interestingly, dietary Se significantly increased selenow mRNA expression in muscle. Our results highlight the vital role of selenow in rainbow trout muscle response to dietary Se levels and provide a theoretical basis for studies of selenow.

Abstract
Selenium is a naturally found trace element, which provides multiple benefits including antioxidant, anticancer, and antiaging, as well as boosting immunity. One unique feature of selenium is its incorporation as selenocysteine, a rare 21st amino acid, into selenoproteins. Twenty-five human selenoproteins have been discovered, and a majority of these serve as crucial antioxidant enzymes for redox homeostasis. Unlike other amino acids, incorporation of selenocysteine requires a distinctive UGA stop codon recoding mechanism. Although many studies correlating selenium, selenoproteins, aging, and senescence have been performed, it has not yet been explored if the upstream events regulating selenoprotein synthesis play a role in senescence-associated pathologies. The epitranscriptomic writer alkylation repair homolog 8 (ALKBH8) is critical for selenoprotein production, and its deficiency can significantly decrease levels of selenoproteins that are essential for reactive oxygen species (ROS) detoxification, and increase oxidative stress, one of the major drivers of cellular senescence. Here, we review the potential role of epitranscriptomic marks that govern selenocysteine utilization in regulating the senescence program.

Abstract
Backgrounds As a systemic skeletal dysfunction, osteoporosis (OP) is characterized by low bone mass and bone microarchitectural damage. The global incidences of OP are high. Methods Data were retrieved from databases like Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), GeneCards, Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins (STRING), Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA2), and other databases. R software (version 4.1.1) was used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and perform functional analysis. The Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) logistic regression and random forest algorithm were combined and used for screening diagnostic markers for OP. The diagnostic value was assessed by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Molecular signature subtypes were identified using a consensus clustering approach, and prognostic analysis was performed. The level of immune cell infiltration was assessed by the Cell-type Identification by Estimating Relative Subsets of RNA Transcripts (CIBERSORT) algorithm. The hub gene was identified using the CytoHubba algorithm. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed on the plasma of osteoporosis patients and control samples. The interaction network was constructed between the hub genes and miRNAs, transcription factors, RNA binding proteins, and drugs. Results A total of 40 DEGs, eight OP-related differential genes, six OP diagnostic marker genes, four OP key diagnostic marker genes, and ten hub genes (TNF, RARRES2, FLNA, STXBP2, EGR2, MAP4K2, NFKBIA, JUNB, SPI1, CTSD) were identified. RT-qPCR results revealed a total of eight genes had significant differential expression between osteoporosis patients and control samples. Enrichment analysis showed these genes were mainly related to MAPK signaling pathways, TNF signaling pathway, apoptosis, and Salmonella infection. RT-qPCR also revealed that the MAPK signaling pathway (p38, TRAF6) and NF-kappa B signaling pathway (c-FLIP, MIP1β) were significantly different between osteoporosis patients and control samples. The analysis of immune cell infiltration revealed that monocytes, activated CD4 memory T cells, and memory and naïve B cells may be related to the occurrence and development of OP. Conclusions We identified six novel OP diagnostic marker genes and ten OP-hub genes. These genes can be used to improve the prognostic of OP and to identify potential relationships between the immune microenvironment and OP. Our research will provide insights into the potential therapeutic targets and pathogenesis of osteoporosis.

Abstract
The positive regulation of bone-forming osteoblast activity and the negative feedback regulation of osteoclastic activity are equally important in strategies to achieve successful alveolar bone regeneration. Here, a molybdenum (Mo)-containing bioactive glass ceramic scaffold with solid-strut-packed structures (Mo-scaffold) was printed, and its ability to regulate pro-osteogenic and anti-osteoclastogenic cellular responses was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. We found that extracts derived from Mo-scaffold (Mo-extracts) strongly stimulated osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and inhibited differentiation of osteoclast progenitors. The identified comodulatory effect was further demonstrated to arise from Mo ions in the Mo-extract, wherein Mo ions suppressed osteoclastic differentiation by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inhibiting mitochondrial biogenesis in osteoclasts. Consistent with the in vitro findings, the Mo-scaffold was found to significantly promote osteoblast-mediated bone formation and inhibit osteoclast-mediated bone resorption throughout the bone healing process, leading to enhanced bone regeneration. In combination with our previous finding that Mo ions participate in material-mediated immunomodulation, this study offers the new insight that Mo ions facilitate bone repair by comodulating the balance between bone formation and resorption. Our findings suggest that Mo ions are multifunctional cellular modulators that can potentially be used in biomaterial design and bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Expression of selenoproteins is widespread in neurons of the central nervous system. There is continuous evidence presented over decades that low levels of selenium or selenoproteins are linked to seizures and epilepsy indicating a failure of the inhibitory system. Many developmental processes in the brain depend on the thyroid hormone T3. T3 levels can be locally increased by the action of iodothyronine deiodinases on the prohormone T4. Since deiodinases are selenoproteins, it is expected that selenoprotein deficiency may affect development of the central nervous system. Studies in genetically modified mice or clinical observations of patients with rare diseases point to a role of selenoproteins in brain development and degeneration. In particular selenoprotein P is central to brain function by virtue of its selenium transport function into and within the brain. We summarize which selenoproteins are essential for the brain, which processes depend on selenoproteins, and what is known about genetic deficiencies of selenoproteins in humans. This review is not intended to cover the potential influence of selenium or selenoproteins on major neurodegenerative disorders in human.

Abstract
Adolescence is a period of intense growth and endocrine changes, and obesity and insulin-resistance processes during this period have lately been rising. Selenium (Se) homeostasis is related to lipid metabolism depending on the form and dose of Se. This study tests the actions of low-dose selenite and Se nanoparticles (SeNPs) on white (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT) deposition, insulin secretion, and GPx1, IRS-1 and FOXO3a expression in the WAT of adolescent rats as regards oxidative stress, adipocyte length and adipokine secretion. Four groups of male adolescent rats were treated: control (C), low selenite supplementation (S), low SeNP supplementation (NS) and moderate SeNP supplementation (NSS). Supplementation was received orally through water intake; NS and NSS rats received two- and tenfold more Se than C animals, respectively. SeNPs were obtained by reducing Se tetrachloride in the presence of ascorbic acid. For the first time in vivo, it was demonstrated that low selenite supplementation contributed to increased adipogenesis via the insulin signaling pathway and LCN2 modulation, while low SeNP administration prevented fat depots in WAT via the decrease in insulin signaling and FOXO3a autophagy in WAT, lowering inflammation. These effects were independent of GPx1 expression or activity in WAT. These findings provide data for dietary approaches to prevent obesity and/or anorexia during adolescence. These findings may be relevant to future studies looking at a nutritional approach aimed at pre-venting obesity and/or anorexia in adolescence.

Abstract
The essential trace element selenium plays an important role in maintaining brain function. Selenoprotein W (SELENOW), the smallest selenoprotein that has been identified in mammals, is sensitive to selenium levels and abundantly expressed in the brain. However, its biological role in the brain remains to be clarified. Here, we studied the morphological and functional changes in the brain caused by SELENOW deficiency using its gene knockout (KO) mouse models. Histomorphological alterations of the amygdala and hippocampus, specifically in the female SELENOW KO mice, were observed, ultimately resulting in less anxiety-like behavior and impaired contextual fear memory. Fear conditioning (FC) provokes rapidly intricate responses involving neuroplasticity and oligodendrogenesis. During this process, the females generally show stronger contextual FC than males. To characterize the effect of SELENOW deletion on FC, specifically in the female mice, a Tandem mass tag (TMT)-based comparative proteomic approach was applied. Notably, compared to the wildtype (WT) no shock (NS) mice, the female SELENOW KO NS mice shared lots of common differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) with the WT FC mice in the hippocampus, enriched in the biological process of ensheathment and oligodendrocyte differentiation. Immunostaining and Western blotting analyses further confirmed the proteomic results. Our work may provide a holistic perspective of gender-specific SELENOW function in the brain and highlighted its role in oligodendrogenesis during fear memory.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, characterized by low bone mass and a disruption of bone microarchitecture, is traditionally treated using drugs or lifestyle modifications. Recently, several preclinical and clinical studies have investigated the effects of selenium on bone health, although the results are controversial. Selenium, an important trace element, is required for selenoprotein synthesis and acts crucially for proper growth and skeletal development. However, the intake of an optimum amount of selenium is critical, as both selenium deficiency and toxicity are hazardous for health. In this review, we have systematically analyzed the existing literature in this field to determine whether dietary or serum selenium concentrations are associated with bone health. In addition, the mode of administration of selenium as a supplement for treating bone disease is important. We have also highlighted the importance of using green-synthesized selenium nanoparticles as therapeutics for bone disease. Novel nanobiotechnology will be a bridgehead for clinical applications of trace elements and natural products.

Abstract
With the progress of the aging population, bone-related diseases such as osteoporosis and osteoarthritis have become urgent problems. Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of osteoclasts in bone homeostasis, implying these will be an important mediator in the treatment of bone-related diseases. Up to now, several reviews have been performed on part of osteoclast biological behaviors such as differentiation, function, or apoptosis. However, few reviews have shown the complete osteoclast biology and research advances in recent years. Therefore, in this review, we focus on the origin, differentiation, apoptosis, behavior changes and coupling signals with osteoblasts, providing a simple but comprehensive overview of osteoclasts for subsequent studies.

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.
