[PMID: 36890055 DOI: 10.1016/j.bulcan.2023.02.007] [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: 08/28/2022] [Revised: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gambogic acid (GA) as an active compound isolated from Gamboge, have been investigated for many years and proved to be a promising natural anticancer agent for clinical treatment. This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory effect of docetaxel (DTX) combined with gambogic acid on bone metastasis of lung cancer. METHODS The anti-proliferation effect of the combination of DTX and GA on Lewis lung cancer (LLC) cells was determined by MTT assays. The anticancer effect of the combination of DTX and GA on bone metastasis of lung cancer in vivo was explored. Evaluation of the efficacy of drug therapy was performed by comparing the degree of bone destruction and the pathological section of bone tissue of the treated mice with that of the control mice. RESULTS In vitro cytotoxicity, cell migration, and osteoclast-induced formation assay showed that GA enhanced the therapeutic effect of DTX in Lewis lung cancer cell with a synergistic effect. In an orthotopic mouse model of bone metastasis, the average survival of the DTX+GA combination group (32.61d±1.06 d) was significantly increased compared with that of the DTX group (25.75 d±0.67 d) or GA group (23.99 d±0.58 d), *P<0.01. CONCLUSION The combination of DTX and GA has synergistic effect and resulted in more effective inhibition of tumor metastasis, providing a strong preclinical rationale for the clinical development of the DTX+GA combination for treating bone metastasis of lung cancer.

Trihydroxyxanthones from the heartwood of Maclura cochinchinensis modulate M1/M2 macrophage polarisation and enhance surface TLR4. Inflammopharmacology 2023; 31:529-541.

Abstract
The anti-inflammatory actions of phytochemicals have attracted much attention due to the current state of numerous inflammatory disorders. Thai traditional medicine uses Maclura cochinchinensis (Lour.) Corner to treat chronic fever and various inflammatory diseases, as well as to maintain normal lymphatic function. Five flavonoids and five xanthones were isolated from the heartwood of M. cochinchinensis and we investigated the anti-inflammatory properties of the isolated compounds. All isolated compounds possessed an anti-inflammatory effect by decreasing prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated murine macrophages with varying degrees of potency. The greatest decrease in M1 inflammatory mediators, nitric oxide, PGE2, and proinflammatory cytokines was observed with 1,3,7-trihydroxyxanthone and 1,3,5-trihydroxyxanthone treatment of LPS-activated macrophages. The anti-inflammatory mechanism of the two xanthones is mediated by the suppression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, cyclooxygenase-2, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B expression and the upregulation of M2 anti-inflammatory signalling proteins phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors-γ. 1,3,7-Trihydroxyxanthone exhibits superior induction of anti-inflammatory M2 mediator of LPS-activated macrophages by upregulating arginase1 expression. Following the resolution of inflammation, the two xanthones enhanced surface TLR4 expression compared to LPS-stimulated cells, possibly preserving macrophage function. Our research highlights the role of the two xanthones in modulating the M1/M2 macrophage polarisation to reduce inflammation and retain surface TLR4 once inflammation has been resolved. These findings support the use of xanthones for their anti-inflammatory effects in treating inflammatory dysregulation.

Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:739326. [PMID: 34675808 PMCID: PMC8524096 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.739326] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Kaempferol has been reported to exhibit beneficial effect on the osteogenic differentiation in mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and osteoblasts. In our previous study, dexamethasone (DEX) demonstrated inhibitory effect on MC3T3-E1 cells differentiation. In this study, we mainly explored the protective effect of kaempferol on the inhibitory activity of DEX in the osteogenesis of MC3T3-E1 cells. We found that kaempferol ameliorated the proliferation inhibition, cell cycle arrest, and cell apoptosis and increased the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and the mineralization in DEX-treated MC3T3-E1 cells. Kaempferol also significantly enhanced the expression of osterix (Osx) and runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) in MC3T3-E1 cells treated with DEX. In addition, kaempferol attenuated DEX-induced reduction of cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 expression and elevation of p53 and Bax expression. Kaempferol also activated JNK and p38-MAPK pathways in DEX-treated MC3T3-E1 cells. Furthermore, kaempferol improved bone mineralization in DEX-induced bone damage in a zebrafish larvae model. These data suggested that kaempferol ameliorated the inhibitory activity of DEX in the osteogenesis of MC3T3-E1 cells by activating JNK and p38-MAPK signaling pathways. Kaempferol exhibited great potentials in developing new drugs for treating glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis.

Abstract
The development of progressive osteopenia and osteoporosis (OP) is due to the imbalance between bone resorption and bone formation, determining a lower bone resistance, major risks of fractures, with consequent pain and functional limitations. Flavonoids, a class of polyphenols, have been extensively studied for their therapeutic activities against bone resorption, but less attention has been given to a whole series of molecules belonging to the polyphenolic compounds. However, these classes have begun to be studied for the treatment of OP. In this systematic review, comprehensive information is provided on non-flavonoid polyphenolic compounds, and we highlight pathways implicated in the action of these molecules that act often epigenetically, and their possible use for OP treatment and prevention.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests bright prospects of some natural antioxidants in the treatment of osteoporosis. 6'-O-Galloylpaeoniflorin (GPF), an antioxidant isolated from peony roots (one of very widely used Oriental medicines, with various anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antioxidant activities), shows a series of potential clinical applications. However, its effects on osteoporosis remain poorly investigated. The current study aimed to explore whether GPF can attenuate osteoclastogenesis and relieve ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis via attenuating reactive oxygen species (ROS), and investigate the possible mechanism. After the culture of primary murine bone marrow-derived macrophages/monocytes were induced by the use of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and then treated with GPF. Cell proliferation and viability were assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Thereafter, the role of GPF in the production of osteoclasts and the osteogenic resorption of mature osteoclasts were evaluated by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, podosome belt formation, and resorption pit assay. Western blotting and qRT-PCR examination were performed to evaluate proteins' generation and osteoclast-specific gene levels, respectively. The ROS generation in cells was measured in vitro by 2',7'-Dichlorodi-hydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA). Ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis mouse administered with GPF or vehicle was performed to explore the in vivo potential of GPF, then a micro-CT scan was performed in combination with histological examination for further analysis. GPF suppressed the formation of osteoclasts and podosome belts, as well as bone resorption when induced by RANKL through affecting intracellular ROS activity, MAPKs signaling pathway, and subsequent NFATc1 translocation and expression, as well as osteoclast-specific gene expression in vitro. In vivo study suggested that exposure to GPF prevented osteoporosis-related bone loss in the ovariectomized mice. These findings indicate that GPF attenuates osteoclastogenesis and relieves ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis by inhibiting ROS and MAPKs/c-Fos/NFATc1 signaling pathway. This suggested that GPF may be potentially used to treat bone diseases like periodontitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis associated with osteoclasts.

Pregnenolone Inhibits Osteoclast Differentiation and Protects Against Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammatory Bone Destruction and Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Loss. Front Pharmacol 2020; 11:360.

Abstract
Osteolytic bone disease is characterized by excessive osteoclast bone resorption leading to increased skeletal fragility and fracture risk. Multinucleated osteoclasts formed through the fusion of mononuclear precursors are the principle cell capable of bone resorption. Pregnenolone (Preg) is the grand precursor of most if not all steroid hormones and have been suggested to be a novel anti-osteoporotic agent. However, the effects of Preg on osteoclast biology and function has yet to be shown. Here we examined the effect of Preg on receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption in vitro, and potential therapeutic application in inflammatory bone destruction and bone loss in vivo. Our in vitro cellular assays demonstrated that Preg can inhibit the formation of TRAP+ve osteoclast formation as well as mature osteoclast bone resorption in a dose-dependent manner. The expression of osteoclast marker genes CTSK, TRAP, DC-STAMP, ATP6V0d2, and NFATc1 were markedly attenuated. Biochemical analyses of RANKL-induced signaling pathways showed that Preg inhibited the early activation of extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK) mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor-κB, which consequently impaired the downstream induction of c-Fos and NFATc1. Using reactive oxygen species (ROS) detection assays, we found that Preg exhibits anti-oxidant properties inhibiting the generation of intracellular ROS following RANKL stimulation. Consistent with these in vitro results, we confirmed that Preg protected mice against local Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory bone destruction in vivo by suppressing osteoclast formation. Furthermore, we did not find any observable effect of Preg on osteoblastogenesis and mineralization in vitro. Finally Preg was administered to ovariectomy (OVX)-induced bone loss and demonstrated that Preg prevented systemic OVX-induced osteoporosis. Collectively, our observations provide strong evidence for the use of Preg as anti-osteoclastogenic and anti-resorptive agent for the potential treatment of osteolytic bone conditions.

miR-122 Exerts Inhibitory Effects on Osteoblast Proliferation/Differentiation in Osteoporosis by Activating the PCP4-Mediated JNK Pathway. MOLECULAR THERAPY. NUCLEIC ACIDS 2020; 20:345-358.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is characterized by the reduction of bone mineral density and deterioration of bone quality which leads to high risk of fractures. Some microRNAs (miRNAs) have been confirmed as potential modulators of osteoblast differentiation to maintain bone mass maintenance. We aimed to clarify whether miR-122 could regulate osteoblast differentiation in ovariectomized rats with osteoporosis. miR-122 was upregulated and Purkinje cell protein 4 (PCP4) was downregulated in ovariectomized rats. PCP4 was identified as a target of miR-122 by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. We transfected isolated osteoblasts from ovariectomized rats with miR-122 mimic or inhibitor or PCP4 overexpression vectors. Proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts were repressed by the overexpression of miR-122 but enhanced by overexpression of PCP4. miR-122 could induce the activation of the c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway, while PCP4 blocked this pathway. Rescue experiments further demonstrated that the inhibiting effects of miR-122 on osteoblast differentiation could be compensated by activation of the PCP4 or inhibition of JNK signaling pathway. Collectively, our data imply that miR-122 inhibits osteoblast proliferation and differentiation in rats with osteoporosis, highlighting a novel therapeutic target for osteoporotic patients.

Abstract
Purposes Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease characterized by the degradation of articular cartilage and joint inflammation. Interleukin-1ß induces P38/cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) pathway activation, resulting in increased expression of matrix metallopeptidase-13 (MMP13) in chondrocytes. However, the role of the P38/CREB/MMP13 axis is unclear in the progression of OA. In this study, we aimed to answer the following questions: (1) how does the P38/CREB/MMP13 axis in cartilage from patients with OA compare with control specimens? (2) Can the P38 agonist anisomycin (ANS) induce mouse OA? Materials and methods Surgical specimens of human cartilage were divided into OA and control groups. Surgical specimens of mouse cartilage were divided into control and ANS-induced groups. Safranin O staining of the cartilage tissues was performed to evaluate the extracellular matrix. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was performed using these tissues to investigate messenger RNA expressions of type II collagen, aggrecan, MMP13, and ADAM metallopeptidase with thrombospondin type 1 motif 5. Phosphorylated (p)-P38, p-CREB, and MMP13 were evaluated by Western blot analysis. Anisomycin was used to activate P38, and p-P38, p-CREB, and MMP13 were evaluated by immunofluorescence and Western blot analysis. Results Safranin O staining showed that the extracellular matrix degraded in humans with OA and ANS-induced mouse cartilage samples. The expressions of p-P38, p-CREB, and MMP13 were all upregulated in osteoarthritic cartilage or anisomycin-induced chondrocytes, suggesting that the P38/CREB/MMP13 axis may play a role in the progression of OA. Conclusions The P38/CREB/MMP13 axis is active in osteoarthritic chondrocytes and may cause the degeneration of cartilage. Effective new therapy directed against this pathway could be developed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that results in alveolar bone resorption due to inflammatory cytokine production induced by bacterial antigens such as lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Here, the preventive effect of the Amyl-1-18 peptide derived from rice in an experimental model of periodontitis and the effect on the anti-inflammatory response were assessed. METHODS Alveolar bone resorption, gene transcription of proinflammatory cytokines in the gingiva, and the endotoxin level in the oral cavity were evaluated after oral administration of the Amyl-1-18 peptide for 14 days using a ligature-induced periodontitis model in mice. Additionally, murine macrophages were incubated with LPS of Escherichia coli or Porphyromonas gingivalis in the presence of Amyl-1-18 to analyze the suppressive effects of Amyl-1-18 on the cell signaling pathways associated with proinflammatory cytokine production, including inflammasome activities. RESULTS Oral administration of Amyl-1-18 suppressed alveolar bone resorption and gene transcription of interleukin (il)6 in the gingiva of the periodontitis model, and decreased endotoxin levels in the oral cavity, suggesting modulation of periodontal inflammation by inhibition of endotoxin activities in vivo. Also, Amyl-1-18 suppressed IL-6 production induced by LPS and recombinant IL-1β in macrophages in vitro but had no effect on inflammasome activity. CONCLUSIONS The Amyl-1-18 peptide from rice inhibited alveolar bone destruction in mouse periodontitis model via suppressing inflammatory cytokine production induced by LPS. It was suggested that Amyl-1-18 peptide has anti-inflammatory property against LPS, not only by neutralization of LPS and subsequent inhibition of nuclear factor-κB signaling but also by inhibition of the IL-1R-related signaling cascade.

Abstract
At present, chemotherapy is still the main treatment for cervical cancer. However, the drug resistance of chemotherapy drugs seriously restricts its use, so it is urgent to develop new drugs for cervical cancer. Some studies have shown that gambogic acid has a strong anti-tumor effect, while the anti-tumor effect and molecular mechanism of gambogic acid on cervical cancer need to be studied. Our study confirms that the cytotoxic effect of gambogic acid on cervical cancer cells depends on the expression of TR3 protein. Moreover, gambogic acid-induced apoptosis requires TR3 expression. In the mechanism, gambogic acid promoted nuclear export of TR3, resulting in up-regulation of p53, which leads to the decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential, eventually inducing apoptosis. These results suggest that the nuclear export of TR3 mediated gambogic acid-induced apoptosis through a p53-dependent apoptosis pathway.

Abstract
Current pharmacological intervention for the treatment of osteolytic bone diseases such as osteoporosis focuses on the prevention of excessive osteoclastic bone resorption but does not enhance osteoblast-mediated bone formation. In our study, we have shown that 4-iodo-6-phenylpyrimidine (4-IPP), an irreversible inhibitor of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), can inhibit receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis and potentiate osteoblast-mediated mineralization and bone nodule formation in vitro. Mechanistically, 4-IPP inhibited RANKL-induced p65 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation by preventing the interaction of MIF with thioredoxin-interacting protein-p65 complexes. This led to the suppression of late osteoclast marker genes such as nuclear factor of activated T cells cytoplasmic 1, resulting in impaired osteoclast formation. In contrast, 4-IPP potentiated osteoblast differentiation and mineralization also through the inhibition of the p65/NF-κB signaling cascade. In the murine model of pathologic osteolysis induced by titanium particles, 4-IPP protected against calvarial bone destruction. Similarly, in the murine model of ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis, 4-IPP treatment ameliorated the bone loss associated with estrogen deficiency by reducing osteoclastic activities and enhancing osteoblastic bone formation. Collectively, these findings provide evidence for the pharmacological targeting of MIF for the treatment of osteolytic bone disorders.-Zheng, L., Gao, J., Jin, K., Chen, Z., Yu, W., Zhu, K., Huang, W., Liu, F., Mei, L., Lou, C., He, D.

Abstract
Wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis is the primary complication of the total joint replacement; however, no conservative treatment except for reversal surgery is available for this disease. During the past decade, Chinese herbal medicines have been widely investigated to inhibit osteoclast differentiation, which may exhibit the potential to treat wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis. The present study was aimed at the investigation of the effects of forsythiaside on osteocytes. The current data revealed that the forsythiaside treatment notably inhibited the titanium (Ti) particle-induced inflammation through impaired NF-κB signaling, thereby inhibiting TNF-α and IL-1β. In addition, the in vitro study demonstrated that forsythiaside effectively prevented the RANKL-induced differentiation of osteoclasts and inhibited the expression of osteoclast-specific genes in osteoclasts via inhibition of the JNK signaling pathway. The in vivo study of Ti particle-induced implant-associated osteolysis indicated that forsythiaside could also inhibit osteoclastogenesis. In summary, forsythiaside could inhibit osteoclastogenesis and particle-induced inflammation, resulting in decreased secretion of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-1β. On the other hand, forsythiaside could inhibit RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and Ti particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis via JNK, ERK and p38 signaling pathways. Both the abovementioned biofunctions of forsythiaside contributed to the implant-associated particle-induced osteolysis. Thus, forsythiaside can act as a candidate drug for the precaution of implant-associated particle-induced osteolysis. Forsythiaside can act as a candidate drug for the precaution of implant-associated particle-induced osteolysis.![]()

Abstract
Our aim is to investigate the potential therapeutic value of morin against osteoporosis and elucidate the mechanism of action. Osteoporosis was induced in rats by a subcutaneous injection of dexamethasone (DEX) for 5 weeks. Body weight was regularly monitored. Body mineral density (BMD) was determined at proximal femurs using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Pathological examination was performed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. The relative expression of osteogenic and bone resorption markers was determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting, respectively. Activation of the MAPK signaling pathway was analyzed by Western blotting. Body weight and BMD were both significantly decreased in osteoporotic rats, although BMD was partially restored by intraperitoneal morin administration. Morin treatment also increased the number of trabecular bones in DEX-induced rats. Mechanistically, morin reversed the decrease of osteogenic markers and increase of bone resorption markers, which might eventually be mediated by modulation of MAPK signaling cascades. Here, we uncovered the therapeutic effect of morin against osteoporosis and demonstrated its suppressive action on the MAPK pathway in this disease.

Abstract
Osteoporosis develops because of impaired bone formation and/or excessive bone resorption. Although the pharmacological treatment of osteoporosis has been extensively developed, alternative treatments are still needed. Here, we showed that oridonin (ORI), a diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens, can suppress osteoclastogenesis and enhance osteogenesis. ORI inhibited the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption through the inhibition of p65 nuclear translocation. ORI-induced inhibition of this translocation led to an increase in osteoblast differentiation and mineralization through the promotion of Smad1/Smad5 phosphorylation. Further analyses demonstrated that the inhibition of p65 nuclear translocation is due to the suppression of IκBα phosphorylation and the induced proteasomal degradation of interferon-related development regulator 1 (Ifrd1), a transcriptional corepressor that is involved in the suppression of NF-κB nuclear translocation. Moreover, mice treated with ORI at catabolic and anabolic windows showed a considerable attenuation of ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporosis. Taken together, our findings reveal that ORI protects against OVX-induced bone loss via inhibiting osteoclastic bone resorption but enhancing osteoblastic bone formation through abolishing both Ifrd1-mediating and IκBα-mediated p65 nuclear translocation. These results show the potential of ORI for treatment of osteoporosis and highlight Ifrd1 as a another novel promising target for anti-osteoporotic drugs. © 2017 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Garcinia angustifolia is a dry resin secreted by Garcinia cambogia, which has the functions of breaking blood, detoxifying, stopping bleeding and killing insects. It is used for the treatment of cancer and brain edema. Gambogic acid is the primary active ingredient. The present study aimed to investigate the anti‑inflammatory and antiproliferative effects of gambogic acid on arthritis and the possible mechanisms. It was demonstrated that gambogic acid decreased arthritic scores in murine collagen‑induced arthritic mice. The tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‑α, interleukin (IL)‑1β, IL‑6 and IL‑18 concentrations, and caspase‑3 and caspase‑9 were significantly inhibited by gambogic acid in arthritic mice. Gambogic acid decreased matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)‑2, MMP‑9, nuclear factor (NF)‑κB and phosphorylated‑p38 protein expression, and increased tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteases‑1 (TIMP‑1) protein expression in arthritic mice. Furthermore, the phosphoinositide 3‑kinase (PI3K)/AKT serine/threonine kinase (Akt) signaling pathway was induced in arthritic mice treated with gambogic acid. The results suggested that gambogic acid induced anti‑inflammatory effects in murine collagen‑induced arthritis, through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, and offers future potential for application in arthritis patients.

Abstract
Gamboge is the dry resin secreted by Garcinia hanburyi Hook.f, with the function of promoting blood circulation, detoxification, hemostasis and killing insects, used for the treatment of cancer, brain edema and other diseases. Gambogic acid is the main effective constituent of Gamboge. The present study investigated the protective effects of gambogic acid on spinal cord injury (SCI) and its anti‑inflammatory mechanism in an SCI model in vivo. Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan (BBB) testing was used to detect the protective effects of gambogic acid on nerve function of SCI rats. The water content of the spinal cord was used to analyze the protective effects of gambogic acid on the damage of SCI. Treatment with gambogic acid effectively improved BBB scores and inhibited water content of the spinal cord in SCI rats. Also, gambogic acid significantly reduced inflammatory cytokines levels of [tumor necrosis factor‑α, interleukin (IL)‑6, IL‑12 and IL‑1β] and oxidative stress (malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase, glutathione and glutathione‑peroxidase) factors, and suppressed receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand, phosphorylated p38 protein expression and toll‑like receptor 4/nuclear factor‑κB pathway activation, and increased phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase/protein kinase B (Akt) pathway activation in SCI rats. These results provide evidence that gambogic acid inhibits SCI and inflammation through suppressing the p38 and Akt signaling pathways.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that resveratrol can reduce blood sugar, improve insulin resistance, regulate abnormalities in lipid metabolism, and lower the secretion and expression of inflammatory factors. The present study investigated the anti‑inflammatory effects of resveratrol in animal models of acute pharyngitis, and its possible mechanisms. Commercial ELISA kits were used to measure tumor necrosis factor‑α, interleukin (IL)‑6, macrophage inflammatory protein‑2, cyclooxygenase‑2 levels and caspase‑3/9 activity. Toll‑like receptor (TLR)‑4, myeloid differentiation primary response protein MyD88, phosphorylated (p)‑nuclear factor (NF)‑κB and p‑IκB were analyzed using western blotting. In a rabbit model of acute pharyngitis, it was demonstrated that resveratrol inhibited tumor necrosis factor‑α and interleukin‑6 serum levels, macrophage inflammatory protein‑2 and cyclooxygenase‑2 activity levels, reactive oxygen species production and caspase‑3/9 activity. Resveratrol suppressed NACHT, LRR and PYD domains‑containing protein 3 and caspase‑1 protein expression, and reduced IL‑1β and IL‑18 protein expression in animal models of acute pharyngitis. Additionally, resveratrol suppressed TLR4 and myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 protein expression, and reduced p‑NF‑κB and increased p‑IκB protein expression in animal models of acute pharyngitis. In conclusion, these findings indicated that the anti‑inflammatory activity of resveratrol prevents acute pharyngitis‑induced inflammation by inhibiting NF‑κB in animal models. Therefore, these data suggested an important clinical application of resveratrol in preventing acute pharyngitis.

Alendronate promotes osteoblast differentiation and bone formation in ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis through interferon-β/signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 pathway. Exp Ther Med 2017; 15:182-190. [PMID: 29375681 PMCID: PMC5763659 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2017.5381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2016] [Accepted: 05/19/2017] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Alendronate is commonly used for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis; however, the underlying pathological molecular mechanisms of its action remain unclear. In the present study, the alendronate-treated signaling pathway in bone metabolism in rats with ovariectomy induced by osteoporosis was investigated. Rats with osteoporosis were orally administered alendronate or phosphate-buffered saline (control). In addition, the interferon-β (IFN-β)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) signaling pathway was investigated in osteoblasts following treatment with alendronate in vitro and in vivo. During the differentiation period, IFN-β (100 ng/ml) was used to treat the osteoblast cells, and the activity, viability and bone metabolism-associated gene expression levels (STAT1, p-STAT1, Fra1, TRAF6 and SOCS1) were analyzed in osteoblast cells. Histopathological changes were used to evaluate osteoblasts, osteoclasts, inflammatory phase of bone healing and osteonecrotic areas. The results demonstrated that alendronate significantly inhibited the activity of osteoporotic osteoclasts by stimulating expression of IFN-β, as well as markedly improved the viability and activity of osteoblasts compared with the control group. In addition, alendronate increased the expression and phosphorylation levels of STAT1 in osteoclasts, enhanced osteoblast differentiation, upregulated the expression levels of alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin, and increased the expression of osteoblast differentiation-associated genes (osteocalcin, osterix and Runx2). Inhibition of IFN-β expression canceled the benefits of alendronate-mediated osteoblast differentiation. Notably, alendronate enhanced bone formation in rats with osteoporosis induced by ovariectomy. In conclusion, these findings suggest that alendronate can regulate osteoblast differentiation and bone formation in rats with osteoporosis induced by ovariectomy through upregulation of IFN-β/STAT1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Inflammatory cytokines play critical roles in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis. Recent studies have demonstrated that natural active substances can serve as alternative therapeutic agents for the prevention and treatment of osteoarthritis. Sanguinarine, an alkaloid isolated from the roots of Sanguinaria canadensis, is known to have anti-inflammatory properties. The aim of the present study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of Sanguinarine against osteoarthritis. Sanguinarine inhibited interleukin-1β-induced expression of matrix metalloproteinase 1, 3, and 13, and A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs-5 in chondrocytes, which involved the nuclear factor-κB and c-Jun N-terminal kinase signalling pathways. Furthermore, the study of interleukin-1β-induced cartilage matrix degradation in an anterior cruciate ligament transection-induced osteoarthritis model revealed that Sanguinarine ameliorated osteoarthritis by inhibiting the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 1, 3, and 13, and A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs-5. In conclusion, we demonstrated for the first time that Sanguinarine suppressed the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 1, 3, and 13, and A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs-5 in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo, indicating its potential usefulness in treating osteoarthritis.

Abstract
In Paget's disease of bone (PDB), a major contributory factor are osteoclasts (OCs) that are larger, more numerous, resistant to apoptosis, and hyperactive. The aim of this human in vitro study was to identify kinase cascades involved in the OC phenotype and to determine their impact on downstream processes. Basal phosphorylation levels of Akt and ERK were found to be elevated in PDB OCs. Given our previous findings that 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) associates with the crucial adaptor p62 in OCs, we hypothesized that PDK1 may play an important role in OC-related kinome regulation. The increased phosphorylation of Akt and its substrate GSK3β observed in PDB OCs was reduced significantly upon PDK1 inhibition, as well as that of 4EBP1 and Raptor. This suggests a PDK1/Akt-dependent activation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) in PDB OCs. The resistance to apoptosis and the bone resorption were also overcome upon PDK1 inhibition. Studying autophagy by LC3B expression, we found a less inducible autophagy compared with control cells, which was reversed by PDK1 inhibition. In addition, PBD OCs exhibited higher LC3B-II/LC3B-I ratios and numbers of p62 and LC3B puncta per OC area, which did not further increase in the presence of lysosomal protease inhibitors, suggesting an accumulation of non-degradative autophagosomes. Together these results indicate a strong potential regulatory role for PDK1 in OC stimulatory pathways (Akt, ERK) and autophagy induction (via mTORC1), which may contribute to the OC phenotype in PDB. We also identified defects in late autophagosome maturation in these cells, the mechanism of which remains to be determined. © 2016 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
The skeleton is a highly dynamic tissue whose structure relies on the balance between bone deposition and resorption. This equilibrium, which depends on osteoblast and osteoclast functions, is controlled by multiple factors that can be modulated post-translationally. Some of the modulators are Mitogen-activated kinases (MAPKs), whose role has been studied in vivo and in vitro. p38-MAPK modifies the transactivation ability of some key transcription factors in chondrocytes, osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which affects their differentiation and function. Several commercially available inhibitors have helped to determine p38 action on these processes. Although it is frequently mentioned in the literature, this chemical approach is not always as accurate as it should be. Conditional knockouts are a useful genetic tool that could unravel the role of p38 in shaping the skeleton. In this review, we will summarize the state of the art on p38 activity during osteoblast differentiation and function, and emphasize the triggers of this MAPK.

Abstract
Excessive bone resorption plays a central role on the development of bone erosive diseases, including osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and periodontitis. Osteoclasts, bone-resorbing multinucleated cells, are differentiated from hemopoietic progenitors of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. Regulation of osteoclast differentiation is considered an effective therapeutic target to the treatment of pathological bone loss. Natural plant-derived products, with potential therapeutic and preventive activities against bone-lytic diseases, have received increasing attention in recent years because of their whole regulative effects and specific pharmacological activities, which are more suitable for long-term use than chemically synthesized medicines. In this review, we summarized the detailed research progress on the active compounds derived from medical plants with potential anti-resorptive effects and their molecular mechanisms on inhibiting osteoclast formation and function. The active ingredients derived from natural plants that are efficacious in suppressing osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption include flavonoids, terpenoids (sesquiterpenoids, diterpenoids, triterpenoids), glycosides, lignans, coumarins, alkaloids, polyphenols, limonoids, quinones and others (steroid, oxoxishhone, fatty acid). Studies have shown that above natural products exert the inhibitory effects via regulating many factors involved in the process of osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption, including the essential cytokines (RANKL, M-CSF), transcription factors (NFATc1, c-Fos), signaling pathways (NF-κB, MAPKs, Src/PI3K/Akt, the calcium ion signaling), osteoclast-specific genes (TRAP, CTSK, MMP-9, integrin β3, OSCAR, DC-STAMP, Atp6v0d2) and local factors (ROS, LPS, NO). The development of osteoclast-targeting natural products is of great value for the prevention or treatment of bone diseases and for bone regenerative medicine.
