[PMID: 37669714 PMCID: PMC11331170 DOI: 10.1016/j.jare.2023.09.001] [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: 07/07/2023] [Revised: 08/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is recognized as a skeletal disorder characterized by diminished bone tissue quality and density. Regular physical exercise is widely acknowledged to preserve and enhance bone health, but the detailed molecular mechanisms involved remain unclear. Irisin, a factor derived from muscle during exercise, influences bone and muscle. Since its discovery in 2012, irisin has been found to promote bone growth and reduce bone resorption, establishing a tangible link between muscle exertion and bone health. Consequently, the mechanism by which irisin prevents osteoporosis have attracted significant scientific interest. AIM OF THE REVIEW This study aims to elucidate the multifaceted relationship between exercise, irisin, and bone health. Focusing on irisin, a muscle-derived factor released during exercise, we seek to understand its role in promoting bone growth and inhibiting resorption. Through a review of current research article on irisin in osteoporosis, Our review provides a deep dive into existing research on influence of irisin in osteoporosis, exploring its interaction with pivotal signaling pathways and its impact on various cell death mechanisms and inflammation. We aim to uncover the molecular underpinnings of how irisin, secreted during exercise, can serve as a therapeutic strategy for osteoporosis. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF THE REVIEW Irisin, secreted during exercise, plays a vital role in bridging muscle function to bone health. It not only promotes bone growth but also inhibits bone resorption. Specifically, Irisin fosters osteoblast proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization predominantly through the ERK, p38, and AMPK signaling pathways. Concurrently, it regulates osteoclast differentiation and maturation via the JNK, Wnt/β-catenin and RANKL/RANK/OPG signaling pathways. This review further delves into the profound significance of irisin in osteoporosis and its involvement in diverse cellular death mechanisms, including apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis.

J Adv Res 2024:S2090-1232(24)00156-5. [PMID: 38626873 DOI: 10.1016/j.jare.2024.04.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity-induced bone loss affects the life quality of patients all over the world. Irisin, one of the myokines, plays an essential role in bone and fat metabolism. OBJECTIVE Investigate the effects of irisin on bone metabolism via adipocytes in the bone marrow microenvironment. METHODS In this study, we fed fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5, the precursor protein of irisin) knockout mice (FNDC5-/-) with a high-fat diet (HFD) for 10 weeks. The quality of bone mass was assessed by micro-CT analysis, histological staining, and dynamic bone formation. In vitro, the lipogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) was assayed by Oil Red O staining, and the osteogenic differentiation was assayed by alkaline phosphatase staining. Meanwhile, the gene expression in the BMSC-differentiated adipocytes by RNA sequence and the involved pathway of irisin were determined by western blot and qRT-PCR were performed. RESULTS The FNDC5-/- mice fed with a HFD showed an increased body weight, fat content of the bone marrow and bone, and a decreased bone formation compared with those with a standard diet (SD). In vitro, irisin inhibited the differentiation of BMSCs into adipocytes and alleviated the inhibition of osteogenesis derived from BMSCs by the adipocyte supernatant. RNA sequence and blocking experiment showed that irisin reduced the production of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in adipocytes through downregulating the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway. Immunofluorescence staining of bone marrow further confirmed an increased IL-6 expression in the FNDC5-/- mice fed with HFD compared with those fed with SD, which suffered serious bone loss. CONCLUSION Irisin downregulates activation of the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway, thereby reducing IL-6 production in adipocytes to enhance the osteogenesis of BMSCs. Thus, the rescue of osteogenesis of BMSCs, initially inhibited by IL-6, is a potential therapeutic target to mitigate obesity-induced osteoporosis.

Abstract
Wear particles generated from total joint replacements induce chronic osteolysis mediated by inflammatory upregulation, which leads to implant failure. Recent studies have suggested an important role of the gut microbiota in modulating the host's metabolism and immune system, leading to alterations in bone mass. Following gavage with P. histicola, micro-CT and HE staining revealed that osteolysis was significantly reduced in titanium (Ti)-treated mice. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed an increased macrophage (M)1/M2 ratio in the guts of Ti-treated mice, which decreased when P. histicola was added. P. histicola was also found to upregulate the tight junction proteins ZO-1, occludin, claudin-1, and MUC2 in the gut, reduce the levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α, primarily in the ileum and colon, and decrease the expression of IL-1β and TNF-α and increase the level of IL-10 in the serum and cranium. Furthermore, P. histicola treatment resulted in a significant downregulation of CTX-1, RANKL, and RANKL/OPG. These findings demonstrate that P. histicola significantly mitigates osteolysis in Ti-treated mice by improving intestinal microbiota that repairs intestinal leakage and reduces systemic and local inflammation which in turn inhibits RANKL expression for bone resorption. P. histicola treatment may thus be therapeutically beneficial for particle-induced osteolysis.

J Cell Mol Med 2024; 28:e18157.

Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis (PPO) caused by wear particles is one of the leading causes of implant failure after arthroplasty. Macrophage polarization imbalance and subsequent osteogenic inhibition play a crucial role in PPO. Calycosin (CA) is a compound with anti-inflammatory and osteoprotective properties. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of CA on titanium (Ti) particle-induced osteolysis, Ti particle-induced macrophage polarization and subsequent osteogenic deficits, and explore the associated signalling pathways in a Ti particle-stimulated calvarial osteolysis mouse model using micro-CT, ELISA, qRT-PCR, immunofluorescence and western blot techniques. The results showed that CA alleviated inflammation, osteogenic inhibition and osteolysis in the Ti particle-induced calvarial osteolysis mouse model in vivo. In vitro experiments showed that CA suppressed Ti-induced M1 macrophage polarization, promoted M2 macrophage polarization and ultimately enhanced osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. In addition, CA alleviated osteogenic deficits by regulating macrophage polarization homeostasis via the NF-κB signalling pathway both in vivo and in vitro. All these findings suggest that CA may prove to be an effective therapeutic agent for wear particle-induced osteolysis.

Abstract
Although tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TIL-Ts) play a crucial role in solid tumor immunotherapy, their clinical application has been limited because of the immunosuppressive microenvironment. Herein, we developed an injectable hydrogel microsphere-integrated training court (MS-ITC) to inspire the function of TIL-Ts and amplify TIL-Ts, through grafting with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies and bovine serum albumin nanoparticles encapsulated with IL-7 and IL-15. MS-ITC provided the T-cell receptor and co-stimulatory signals required for TIL-Ts activation and IL-7/IL-15 signals for TIL-Ts expansion. Afterward, the MS-ITC was injected locally into the osteosarcoma tumor tissue in mice. MS-ITC suppressed the growth of primary osteosarcoma by more than 95 %, accompanied with primed and expanded TIL-Ts in the tumor tissues, compromising significantly increased CD8+ T and memory T cells, thereby enhancing the anti-tumor effect. Together, this work provides an injectable hydrogel microsphere-integrated training platform capable of inspiring TIL-Ts potential for a range of solid tumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
Patients with periodontitis have higher risk of alveolar bone loss when seek for orthodontic therapy. Inflammation and osteogenesis are key factors in alveolar bone destruction in periodontitis and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Here we evaluated the effects of irisin on alveolar bone destruction in rats with periodontitis and OTM. We isolated and cultured human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). Irisin was administrated to PDLSCs. Cell proliferations, osteogenic differentiation, expression of RUNX2 and ALP, and the expression of OPG and RANKL were measured. We induced periodontitis and OTM in rats and treated rats with irisin. The alveolar bone loss, inflammatory cytokine levels, and expression of OPG and RANKL in gingival tissues were measured. Irisin promoted the cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. Irisin elevated the expression of RUNX2, ALP, and OPG while decreased the expression of RANKL in PDLSCs. Irisin ameliorated the alveolar bone loss, suppressed cytokine levels, and increased OPG/RANKL expression ratio in rat with periodontitis and orthodontic tooth movement. Irisin prevented alveolar bone destruction during OTM in rats with periodontitis.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening (AL) is the most common complication of total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Both local inflammatory response and subsequent osteolysis around the prosthesis are the fundamental causes of disease pathology. As the earliest change of cell behavior, polarizations of macrophages play an essential role in the pathogenesis of AL, including regulating inflammatory responses and related pathological bone remodeling. The direction of macrophage polarization is closely dependent on the microenvironment of the periprosthetic tissue. When the classically activated macrophages (M1) are characterized by the augmented ability to produce proinflammatory cytokines, the primary functions of alternatively activated macrophages (M2) are related to inflammatory relief and tissue repair. Yet, both M1 macrophages and M2 macrophages are involved in the occurrence and development of AL, and a comprehensive understanding of polarized behaviors and inducing factors would help in identifying specific therapies. In recent years, studies have witnessed novel discoveries regarding the role of macrophages in AL pathology, the shifts between polarized phenotype during disease progression, as well as local mediators and signaling pathways responsible for regulations in macrophages and subsequent osteoclasts (OCs). In this review, we summarize recent progress on macrophage polarization and related mechanisms during the development of AL and discuss new findings and concepts in the context of existing work.

Abstract
Osteolysis caused by wear debris around the prosthesis is the main reason for aseptic loosening. Extending prosthetic service life is still challenging. In this study, we first synthesized a bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) functional polypeptide (BMP2pp), and evaluated the effects of BMP2pp on macrophage polarization and impaired osteogenesis caused by titanium (Ti) particles in vitro. Then, we delineated the impact of BMP2pp on bone formation and resorption in a mouse calvarial bone osteolysis model induced by Ti particles. The results showed that BMP2pp not only alleviated the Ti-induced inhibition of osteoblastic differentiation in human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hPMSCs) but also prevented Ti-induced M1 macrophage polarization and promoted M2 macrophage differentiation in mice. Conditioned medium from BMP2pp-activated macrophages increased the osteogenesis of hPMSCs. The western blot results indicated a significant decrease in the expression of NF-κB inducing kinase (NIK) and phospho-NF-κB p65 in bone marrow-derived macrophages treated with BMP2pp. Furthermore, we clarified the protective effect of BMP2pp on bone formation and the reduction in bone resorption coupled with the immunomodulatory properties of calvarial osteolysis in mice. In summary, BMP2pp ameliorated the Ti-mediated impairment in osteogenic potential of hPMSCs, suppressed the M1 polarization of macrophages by inhibiting the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, and ameliorated Ti-induced bone osteolysis. Our research suggests that BMP2pp may be a potential option for treating prosthetic loosening induced by wear debris from prostheses.

Abstract
The disability rate of joint diseases can be reduced by the use of artificial joints, but joint loosening at a late state limits the lifespan and surgical efficacy of the joints. Wear particles can be recognized by macrophages and induce cells to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammatory factors, causing persistent inflammation and decreased osteogenic activity, which ultimately leads to loosening of joint prostheses. Here, the platinum (Pt) nanozymes with excellent ROS scavenging and anti-inflammatory capabilities were encapsulated in zinc imidazolium zeolite framework-8 (ZIF-8), and then the osteogenic active element lanthanum (La) was introduced through ion exchange to finally construct a bimetallic metal-organic framework (Pt@ZIF-8@La). In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that this multifunctional nanoplatform possessed the functions of efficient scavenging of ROS, immune regulation, and promotion of osteogenic differentiation. Meanwhile, the mechanism is explored that Pt@ZIF-8@La can also promote osteogenic mineralization by upregulating the ratio of the osteoprotegerin (OPG)/receptor activator of the NF-κB ligand (RANKL), which can achieve a synergistic therapeutic effect of immunomodulation and osteogenesis, thereby realizing the purpose of relieving aseptic osteolysis.

Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis (PPO) triggered by wear particles is the most severe complication of total joint replacement (TJR) surgeries, representing the major cause of implant failure, which is public health concern worldwide. Previous studies have confirmed the specialized role of osteoclast-induced progressive bone destruction in the progression of PPO. Additionally, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by wear particles can promote excessive osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 4 (NOX4), a cellular enzyme, is considered to be responsible for the production of ROS and the formation of mature osteoclasts. However, NOX4 involvement in PPO has not yet been elucidated. Therefore, we investigated the mechanism by which NOX4 regulates osteoclast differentiation and the therapeutic effects on titanium nanoparticle-induced bone destruction. We found that NOX4 blockade suppressed osteoclastogenesis and enhanced the scavenging of intracellular ROS. Our rescue experiment revealed that nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) silencing reversed the effects of NOX4 blockade on ROS production and osteoclast differentiation. In addition, we found increased expression levels of NOX4 in PPO tissues, while NOX4 inhibition in vivo exerted protective effects on titanium nanoparticle-induced osteolysis through antiosteoclastic and antioxidant effects. Collectively, these findings suggested that NOX4 blockade suppresses titanium nanoparticle-induced bone destruction via activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway and that NOX4 blockade may be an attractive therapeutic approach for preventing PPO.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, characterized by bone mineral density reduction, bone mass loss, increased bone fragility, and propensity to fractures, is a common disease in older individuals and one of the most serious health problems worldwide. The imbalance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts results in the predominance of bone resorption and decreased bone formation. In recent years, it has been found that regular and proper exercise not only helps prevent the occurrence of osteoporosis but also adds benefits to osteoporosis therapy; accordingly, bone homeostasis is closely associated with mechanical stress and the intricate crosstalk between osteoblasts and osteoclasts. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms of exercise on osteoporosis and provide new proposals for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.

Icariin Alleviates Wear Particle-Induced Periprosthetic Osteolysis via Down-Regulation of the Estrogen Receptor α-mediated NF-κB Signaling Pathway in Macrophages. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:746391. [PMID: 34803690 PMCID: PMC8595199 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.746391] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2021] [Accepted: 10/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis is one of the major long-term complications following total joint replacement. Its cause is widely accepted to be wear particle-induced activation of inflammatory macrophages. No effective strategy for the prevention and treatment of periprosthetic osteolysis is yet available. Recently, considerable evidence has shown that icariin effectively protects against estrogen deficiency-related bone loss and bone deterioration. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the inhibitory effect of icariin on wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis is not yet clear. In this study, nanoscale CoCrMo wear particles were obtained by high-vacuum three-electrode direct current from the femoral head implant of a patient diagnosed with aseptic loosening. The effects of icariin on wear particle-induced expression of proinflammatory factors, NF-κB signaling modulation, osteolysis, and estrogen receptor α (ERα) activation were evaluated in vitro and in vivo using bone marrow-derived macrophages and C57/BL6J mice, respectively. A possible link between ERα and the protective effect of icariin was further studied using an ERα antagonist and the ERα-siRNA interference. Chemical composition analysis showed that Cr and Co were the major metallic elements of the nanoscale particles, with a mean size of 150.2 ± 37.4 nm for the CoCrMo particles. Following icariin treatment, significant decreases were observed in CoCrMo wear particle-induced TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA expression in BMDMs, and osteolysis in mice calvaria. Marked decreases in the protein expression level of p-IKKβ, p-p65 and p-IκBα were also observed, together with significant decreases in the nuclear import of P65 and macrophage M1 polarization. RNA sequencing revealed that ERα was closely associated with TNF-α and IL-6 in wear particle-stimulated macrophages. Furthermore, marked increases in phospho-ERα Ser118 and phospho-ERα Ser167 protein expression and the nuclear import of ERα were also found in the icariin group. The protective effects of icariin on CoCrMo particle-induced mouse calvarial osteolysis and on the inflammation response in BMDMs were reversed by ERα antagonist and by ERα-siRNA interference. In conclusion, icariin attenuates wear particle-induced inflammation and osteolysis via down-regulation of the ERα-mediated NF-κB signaling pathway in macrophages. The potential application of icariin as a non-hormonal therapy for wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis is worthy of further investigation.
