Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of osteoblast-derived extracellular vesicles (OB-EVs) on the proliferation and differentiation of osteoclasts, and to explore the possible molecular mechanism of extracellular vesicles involved in the communication between osteoblasts and osteoclasts. METHODS Primary osteoblasts were isolated from newborn mouse calvarial bone and induced by β-glycero phosphate, ascorbic acid and dexamethasone. Osteogenic feature was tested by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red S staining. Extracellular vesicles were isolated by ultracentrifugation from the cell culture supernatant. Vesicle morphology was observed by transmission electron microscopy, and the characteristic markers of tumor susceptibility gene 101 (TSG101), ALG-2 interacting protein X (Alix) and cluster of differentiation 9 (CD9) on the surface of extracellular vesicles were identified by Western blotting. Cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) assay was used to determine the proliferation effect of OB-EVs on mouse mononuclear macrophage RAW264.7 cells. Furthermore, the expression level of specific markers of osteoclast differentiation in RAW264.7 cells was detected by Western blotting after the combined effect of OB-EVs and receptor activator for nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL). The number of osteoclasts was observed and compared with OB-EVs-treated mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, and the effect of OB-EVs on osteoclast differentiation was determined. RESULTS The extracted OB-EVs showed a double-layer cup-like structure with a diameter of 30-150 nm, and TSG101, Alix and CD9 were expressed. RAW264.7 cells were stimulated with OB-EVs, and the results of CCK-8 assay showed that high concentration of OB-EVs (more than 20 μg/mL) inhibited cell proliferation (P<0.05). Western blotting analysis showed that the expression of osteoclast differentiation marker proteins such as c-Fos, activated T cell nuclear factor (NFATc1) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in RAW264.7 cells were significantly increased, and the promoting effect was enhanced with increasing of OB-EVs concentration (P<0.05). In addition, the combination of OB-EVs and RANKL on BMMs showed that the number of TRAP-positive cells was significantly higher than that of the RANKL induction group alone (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS OB-EVs can promote the differentiation of osteoclast precursor cells into osteoclasts, but high concentration of OB-EVs can inhibit proliferation of RAW264.7 cells.

Extracellular Vesicles from Human Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Suppress RANKL-Induced Osteoclast Differentiation via miR122-5p. Biochem Genet 2024; 62:2830-2852.

Abstract
Researchers are increasingly interested in cell therapy using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as an alternative remedy for osteoporosis, with fewer side effects. Thus, we isolated and characterized extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human adipose tissue-derived MSCs (hMSCs) and investigated their inhibitory effects on RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation. Purified EVs were collected from the supernatant of hMSCs by tangential flow filtration. Characterization of EVs included typical evaluation of the size and concentration of EVs by nanoparticle tracking analysis and morphology analysis using transmission electron microscopy. hMSC-EVs inhibited RANKL-induced differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) into osteoclasts in a dose-dependent manner. F-actin ring formation and bone resorption were also reduced by EV treatment of osteoclasts. In addition, EVs decreased RANKL-induced phosphorylation of p38 and JNK and expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes in BMDMs treated with RANKL. To elucidate which part of the hMSC-EVs plays a role in the inhibition of osteoclast differentiation, we analyzed miRNA profiles in hMSC-EVs. The results showed that has-miR122-5p was present at significantly high read counts. Overexpression of miR122-5p in BMDMs significantly inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and induced defects in F-actin ring formation and bone resorption. Our results also revealed that RANKL-induced phosphorylation of p38 and JNK and osteoclast-specific gene expression was decreased by miR122-5p transfection, which was consistent with the results of hMSC-EVs. These findings suggest that hMSC-EVs containing miR122-5p inhibit RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation via the downregulation of molecular mechanisms and could be a preventive candidate for destructive bone diseases.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 11 (TNFSF11), or receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), is a crucial osteoclast-stimulating factor binding to RANK on osteoclast membranes. Mouse models are powerful tools for understanding the genetic mechanisms of related diseases. Here, we examined the utility of Tnfsf11 mutation in mice for understanding the mechanisms of bone remodeling and dysmorphology. The Tnfsf11gum mouse, discovered in 2011 at Jackson Laboratory, was used to study the genetic landscape associated with TNFSF11 inactivation in bone marrow tissues. Tnfsf11gum/+ and Tnfsf11+/+ mice were subjected to Micro-CT observation, ELISA analysis, histological evaluation, and massively-parallel mRNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) analysis. Tnfsf11gum/+ mice exhibited severe osteopetrotic changes in the bone marrow cavity, along with significantly lower serum RANKL levels and a reduced number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclasts in the bone marrow compared to those in Tnfsf11+/+ mice. However, tooth eruption between Tnfsf11gum/+ and Tnfsf11+/+ mice did not differ. Furthermore, genes involved in osteoblast proliferation and differentiation, including Gli1, Slc35b2, Lrrc17, and Junb were differentially expressed. Heterozygous mutation of TNFSF11 was also associated with a slightly increased expression of genes involved in osteoclast proliferation and differentiation, including Tcirg1, Junb, Anxa2, and Atp6ap1. Overall, we demonstrate that single gene mutations in Tnfsf11 cause bone resorption instability without significantly altering the genes related to osteoblast and osteoclast activity in the bone marrow cavity, thus establishing an optimal resource as an experimental animal model for bone resorption in bone biology research.

Abstract
Chemical investigation of Irpex sp. NBUF088, associated with an Ircinia sp. sponge located at an 84 m deep mesophotic zone, led to the discovery of two new heptaketides, named irpetones A (1) and B (2). Their structures were identified by analysis of spectroscopic data and quantum-chemical calculations. Compound 1 exhibited inhibition against the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand-induced osteoclastogenesis in bone marrow monocytes with an IC50 of 6.3 ± 0.2 μM, causing no notable cytotoxicity. It was also determined that 1 inhibited the phosphorylation of ERK1/2-JNK1/2-p38 MAPKs and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB, consequently suppressing the activation of MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways induced by the NF-κB ligand.

J Pharmacol Sci 2024; 154:113-126. [PMID: 38246725 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphs.2023.12.011] [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: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Excessive bone resorption caused by upregulated osteoclast activity is a key factor in osteoporosis pathogenesis. Farrerol is a typical natural flavanone and exhibits various pharmacological actions. However, the role and mechanism of action of farrerol in osteoclast differentiation regulation remain unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the effects and mechanism of farrerol on the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining, F-actin staining, and the pit formation assay were performed to examine the differentiation and functions of osteoclasts in vitro. The expression of proteins associated with the nuclear factor kappa B and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways was analyzed by western blotting. Dual X-ray absorptiometry, microcomputed tomography, and histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses were performed to determine the therapeutic effect of farrerol in vivo bone loss prevention. The effects of farrerol on osteoblastic bone formation were assessed using alkaline phosphatase, alizarin red S staining, and calcein-alizarin red S double labeling. Farrerol inhibited osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption in osteoclasts by suppressing nuclear factor kappa B signaling rather than mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling in vitro. Farrerol protected mice against ovariectomy-induced bone loss by inhibiting osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, instead of promoting osteoblast-mediated bone formation in vivo. The findings of the current study revealed that farrerol is a potential therapeutic agent for osteoporosis.

[PMID: 38137439 PMCID: PMC10740651 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11123218] [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: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteoporosis is a multifactorial and polygenic disease caused by an imbalance between osteoclastogenesis and osteoblastogenesis, leading to a decrease in bone mineral density and the occurrence of disorders in the microarchitecture and metabolism of bone tissue. In postmenopausal women, there is a significant decrease in the production of estrogens, which play a key role in maintaining proper bone mineral density. Estrogens have an inhibitory effect on the development and activity of osteoclasts by reducing the synthesis of pro-resorption cytokines and stimulating the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG). Osteoprotegerin is a cytokine that prevents bone loss by inhibiting the process of osteoclastogenesis, reducing bone resorption. The aim of our study was to determine the influence of the rs3102735 (-163A>G), rs3134070 (-245T>G), rs207361 (-950T>C), rs7844539 (6890A>C), and rs2073618 (1181G>C) polymorphisms of the OPG gene on the risk of osteoporosis and osteopenia in postmenopausal Polish women. The study included 802 unrelated women (osteoporosis: n = 317, osteopenia: n = 110, controls: n = 375) at postmenopausal age (54.7 ± 8.6 years). Genetic analysis was performed using real-time PCR. BMD values as well as clinical and bone parameters with the tested polymorphisms were analyzed among the study population. Analysis of the PPARG rs1801282 variants did not show any association with the risk of osteoporosis and osteopenia. However, for the OPG rs207361 polymorphism, we observed a statistically significant association with the risk of osteoporosis, suggesting that the OPG rs207361 variant may be one of the genetic markers associated with the pathogenesis of osteoporosis.

Abstract
A common type of cancer among men is the prostate cancer that kills many people every year. The multistage of this disease and the involvement of the vital organs of the body have reduced the life span and quality of life of the people involved and turned the treatment process into a complex one. NFATc1 biomarker contributes significantly in the diagnosis and treatment of this disease by increasing its expression in prostate cancer and helping the proliferation, differentiation, and invasion of cancer cells through different signaling pathways. NFATc1 is also able to target the metabolism of cancer cells by inserting specific oncogene molecules such as c-myc that it causes cell growth and proliferation. Bone is a common tissue where prostate cancer cells metastasize. In this regard, the activity of NFATc1, through the regulation of different signaling cascades, including the RANKL/RANK signaling pathway, in turn, increases the activity of osteoclasts, and as a result, bone tissue is gradually ruined. Using Silibinin as a medicinal plant extract can inhibit the activity of osteoclasts related to prostate cancer by targeting NFATc. Undoubtedly, NFATc1 is one of the effective oncogenes related to prostate cancer, which has the potential to put this cancer on the path of progression and metastasis. In this review, we will highlight the role of NFATc1 in the progression and metastasis of prostate cancer. Furthermore, we will summarize signaling pathways and molecular mechanism, through which NFATc1 regulates the process of prostate cancer.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, Greek for "porous bone," is a bone disease characterized by a decrease in bone strength, microarchitectural changes in the bone tissues, and an increased risk of fracture. An imbalance of bone resorption and bone formation may lead to chronic metabolic diseases such as osteoporosis. Wolfiporia extensa, known as "Bokryung" in Korea, is a fungus belonging to the family Polyporaceae and has been used as a therapeutic food against various diseases. Medicinal mushrooms, mycelium and fungi, possess approximately 130 medicinal functions, including antitumor, immunomodulating, antibacterial, hepatoprotective, and antidiabetic effects, and are therefore used to improve human health. In this study, we used osteoclast and osteoblast cell cultures treated with Wolfiporia extensa mycelium water extract (WEMWE) and investigated the effect of the fungus on bone homeostasis. Subsequently, we assessed its capacity to modulate both osteoblast and osteoclast differentiation by performing osteogenic and anti-osteoclastogenic activity assays. We observed that WEMWE increased BMP-2-stimulated osteogenesis by inducing Smad-Runx2 signal pathway axis. In addition, we found that WEMWE decreased RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis by blocking c-Fos/NFATc1 via the inhibition of ERK and JNK phosphorylation. Our results show that WEMWE can prevent and treat bone metabolic diseases, including osteoporosis, by a biphasic activity that sustains bone homeostasis. Therefore, we suggest that WEMWE can be used as a preventive and therapeutic drug.

Proteomics profiling of CD4 + T-cell-derived exosomes from patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 122:110560. [PMID: 37423153 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Revised: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Our study profiled the CD4 + T-cell-derived exosomes from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using proteomics. METHODS Proteomic analysis of CD4 + T-cell-derived exosomes was performed by tandem mass tags (TMT) combined with LC-MS/MS. We validated the most significantly upregulated and downregulated proteins using ELISA and WB. RESULTS The proteomic results showed that there were 3 upregulated differentially expressed proteins and 31 downregulated differentially expressed proteins in the RA group. The results indicated that dihydropyrimidinase-related protein 3 (DPYSL3) was significantly upregulated in CD4 + T-cell-derived exosomes, whereas proteasome activator complex subunit 1 (PSME1) was significantly downregulated in the RA group. Bioinformatics analysis showed that proteins were enriched in "positive regulation of gene expression", "antigen processing and presentation", "acute-phase response" and "PI3K-AKT signaling" pathways. ELISA verified that compared to the control group, the RA group showed significant upregulation of DPYSL3, and downregulation of PSME1 in CD4 + T-cell-derived exosomes. CONCLUSIONS The proteomic analysis results of CD4 + T-cell-derived exosomes from patients with RA suggest that these differentially expressed proteins may be involved in RA pathogenesis. DPYSL3 and PSME1 may become useful biomarkers for RA.

Abstract
Tremendous progress has been seen in the study of the role of sialic acid binding im-munoglobulin type lectins (Siglecs) in osteoimmunology in the past two decades. Interest in Siglecs as immune checkpoints has grown from the recognition that Siglecs have relevance to human disease. Siglecs play important roles in inflammation and cancer, and play key roles in immune cell signaling. By recognizing common sialic acid containing glycans on glycoproteins and glycolipids as regulatory receptors for immune cell signals, Siglecs are expressed on most immune cells and play important roles in normal homeostasis and self-tolerance. In this review, we describe the role that the siglec family plays in bone and bone homeostasis, including the regulation of osteoclast differentiation as well as recent advances in inflammation, cancer and osteoporosis. Particular emphasis is placed on the relevant functions of Siglecs in self-tolerance and as pattern recognition receptors in immune responses, thereby potentially providing emerging strategies for the treatment of bone related diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iris Koreana NAKAI (IKN) is a flowering perennial plant that belongs to the Iridaceae family. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the effects of IKN on osteoclast differentiation in vitro and in vivo. We also sought to verify the molecular mechanisms underlying its anti-osteoclastogenic effects. METHODS Osteoclasts were formed by culturing mouse bone marrow macrophage (BMM) cells with macrophage colony-stimulating factor and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL). Bone resorption assays were performed on dentin slices. mRNA expression levels were analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Western blotting was performed to detect protein expression or activation. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced osteoclast formation was performed using a mouse calvarial model. RESULTS In BMM cultures, an ethanol extract of the root part of IKN suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclast formation and bone resorptive activity. In contrast, an ethanol extract of the aerial parts of IKN had a minor effect on RANKL-induced osteoclast formation. Mechanistically, the root part of IKN suppressed RANKL-induced p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation, effectively abrogating the induction of c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFATc1) expression. IKN administration decreased LPS-induced osteoclast formation in a calvarial osteolysis model in vivo. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggested that the ethanol extract of the root part of IKN suppressed osteoclast differentiation and function partly by downregulating the p38 MAPK/c-Fos/NFATc1 signaling pathways. Thus, the root part.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pathophysiology of chronic implant-related bone infections is characterized by an increase in osteoclast numbers and enhanced bone resorption. Biofilms are a major reason for chronicity of such infections as the biofilm matrix protects bacteria against antibiotics and impairs the function of immune cells. Macrophages are osteoclast precursor cells and therefore linked to inflammation and bone destruction. OBJECTIVE AND METHOD Investigations on the impact of biofilms on the ability of macrophages to form osteoclasts are yet missing and we, therefore, analyzed the effect of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (SE) planktonic and biofilm environments on osteoclastogenesis using RAW 264.7 cells and conditioned media (CM). RESULTS Priming with the osteoclastogenic cytokine RANKL before CM addition enabled the cells to differentiate into osteoclasts. This effect was highest in SE planktonic or SA biofilm CM. Simultaneous stimulation with CM and RANKL, however, suppressed osteoclast formation and resulted in formation of inflammation-associated multinucleated giant cells (MGCs) which was most pronounced in SE planktonic CM. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that the biofilm environment and its high lactate levels are not actively promoting osteoclastogenesis. Hence, the inflammatory immune response against planktonic bacterial factors through Toll-like receptors seems to be the central cause for the pathological osteoclast formation. Therefore, immune stimulation or approaches that aim at biofilm disruption need to consider that this might result in enhanced inflammation-mediated bone destruction.

Abstract
Background Sex is an important risk factor in the development of osteoporosis and other bone loss disorders, with women often demonstrating greater susceptibility than men. While variation in sex steroids, such as estradiol, accounts for much of the risk, there are likely additional non-endocrine factors at transcriptional and epigenetic levels that result in a higher rate of bone loss in women. Identification of these factors could improve risk assessment and therapies to preserve and improve bone health. Methods Osteoclast precursors were isolated male and female C57Bl/6 mice and cultured with either MCSF alone or MCSF and RANKL. Following the culture period RNA was isolated for RNA sequencing and DNA was isolated for tagmentation and ATAC sequencing. RNA-Seq and ATAC-seq were evaluated via pathway analysis to identify sex- and RANKL-differential transcription and chromatin accessibility. Results Osteoclasts demonstrated significant alterations in gene expression compared to macrophages with both shared and differential pathways between the sexes. Transcriptional pathways differentially regulated between male and female cells were associated with immunological functions with evidence of greater sensitivity in male macrophages and female osteoclasts. ATAC-Seq revealed a large increase in chromatin accessibility following RANKL treatment with few alterations attributable to sex. Comparison of RNA-Seq and ATAC-seq data revealed few common pathways suggesting that many of the transcriptional changes of osteoclastogenesis occur independently of chromatin remodeling.

Abstract
The cGAS-STING signaling pathway can trigger innate immune responses by detecting dsDNA from outside or within the host. In addition, the cGAS-STING signaling pathway has emerged as a critical mediator of the inflammatory response and a new target for inflammatory diseases. STING activation leads to dimerization and translocation to the endoplasmic reticulum Golgi intermediate compartment or Golgi apparatus catalyzed by TBK1, triggers the production of IRF3 and NF-κB and translocates to the nucleus to induce a subsequent interferon response and pro-inflammatory factor production. Osteoporosis is a degenerative bone metabolic disease accompanied by chronic sterile inflammation. Activating the STING/IFN-β signaling pathway can reduce bone resorption by inhibiting osteoclast differentiation. Conversely, activation of STING/NF-κB leads to the formation of osteoporosis by increasing bone resorption and decreasing bone formation. In addition, activation of STING inhibits the generation of type H vessels with the capacity to osteogenesis, thereby inhibiting bone formation. Here, we outline the mechanism of action of STING and its downstream in osteoporosis and discuss the role of targeting STING in the treatment of osteoporosis, thus providing new ideas for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
THE AIM OF THE STUDY Was to compare the efficacy of various treatment options for external inflammatory root resorption according to literature data. MATERIALS AND METHODS Literature was searched in electronic databases «eLibrary» and «PubMed» for key words «external inflammatory resorption treatment», «external inflammatory resorption management». Inclusion criteria comprised publications in Russian or English, clinical and experimental studies, full description of treatment protocol and obtained results. Studies with no full text, describing root resorption of orthodontic origin, clinical cases and clinical case series were excluded from the study. RESULTS The problem of external inflammatory root resorption is poorly described in the Russian scientific literature. There are no registered protocols for its prevention and treatment or therapeutic agents with proved efficacy available in Russia. The only accessible approach for external inflammatory root resorption remains timely pulp extirpation after dental trauma which importance is underlined by all authors involved in the field of dental trauma studies. MTA and calcium hydroxide being popular as intracanal medications still have significant inconveniences as they potentially provoke root dentine fractures or replacement resorption. CONCLUSION There is a need for elaboration and implementation of new prevention and treatment options for external inflammatory root resorption after dental trauma.

Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis (PPO) induced by wear particles is an important cause of aseptic loosening after artificial joint replacement, among which the imbalance of osteogenesis and osteoclastic processes occupies a central position. The cells involved in PPO mainly include osteoclasts (macrophages), osteoblasts, osteocytes, and fibroblasts. RANKL/RANK/OGP axis is a typical way for osteolysis. Autophagy, a mode of regulatory cell death and maintenance of cellular homeostasis, has a dual role in PPO. Although autophagy is activated in various periprosthetic cells and regulates the release of inflammatory cytokines, osteoclast activation, and osteoblast differentiation, its beneficial or detrimental role remains controversy. In particular, differences in the temporal control and intensity of autophagy may have different effects. This article focuses on the role of autophagy in PPO, and expects the regulation of autophagy to become a powerful target for clinical treatment of PPO.

Abstract
Pathological calcification of cartilage is a hallmark of osteoarthritis (OA). Calcification can be observed both at the cartilage surface and in its deeper layers. The formation of calcium-containing crystals, typically basic calcium phosphate (BCP) and calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPP) crystals, is an active, highly regulated and complex biological process that is initiated by chondrocytes and modified by genetic factors, dysregulated mitophagy or apoptosis, inflammation and the activation of specific cellular-signalling pathways. The links between OA and BCP deposition are stronger than those observed between OA and CPP deposition. Here, we review the molecular processes involved in cartilage calcification in OA and summarize the effects of calcium crystals on chondrocytes, synovial fibroblasts, macrophages and bone cells. Finally, we highlight therapeutic pathways leading to decreased joint calcification and potential new drugs that could treat not only OA but also other diseases associated with pathological calcification.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone fracture healing is a time-consuming and high-priority orthopedic problem worldwide. OBJECTIVE Discovering the potential mechanism of bone healing at a time course and transcriptional level may better help manage bone fracture. METHODS In this study, we analyze a time-course bone fracture healing transcriptional dataset in a rat model (GSE592, GSE594, and GSE1371) of Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). RNA was obtained from female Sprague-Dawley rats with a femoral fracture at the initial time (day 3) as well as early (week 1), middle (week 2), and late (week 4) time periods, with nonfracture rats used as control. Gene Ontology (GO) functional analysis and pathway examinations were performed for further measurements of GSEA and hub genes. RESULTS Results indicated that the four stages of bone fracture healing at the initial, early, middle, and late time periods represent the phases of hematoma formation, callus formation, callus molding, and mature lamellar bone formation, respectively. Extracellular organization was positively employed throughout the four stages. At the hematoma formation phase, the muscle contraction process was downregulated. Antibacterial peptide pathway was downregulated at all phases. The upregulation of Fn1 (initial, early, middle, and late time periods), Col3a1 (initial, early, and middle time periods), Col11a1 (initial and early time periods), Mmp9 (middle and late time periods), Mmp13 (early, middle, and late time periods) and the downregulation of RatNP-3b (initial, early, middle, and late time periods) were possible symbols for bone fracture healing and may be used as therapeutic targets. CONCLUSION These findings suggest some new potential pathways and genes in the process of bone fracture healing and further provide insights that can be used in targeted molecular therapy for bone fracture healing.

(Apiaceae) and grains, and possesses diverse biological activities; but the effects of FAEE on osteoporosis has not been reported. OBJECTIVE This study investigated whether FAEE can attenuate osteoclastogenesis and relieve ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis via attenuating mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). MATERIALS AND METHODS We stimulated RAW 264.7 cells with receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) followed by FAEE. The roles of FAEE in osteoclast production and osteogenic resorption of mature osteoclasts were evaluated by tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, expression of osteoclast-specific genes, proteins and MAPK. Ovariectomized (OVX) female Sprague-Dawley rats were administered FAEE (20 mg/kg/day) for 12 weeks to explore its potential in vivo, and then histology was undertaken in combination with cytokines analyses. RESULTS FAEE suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclast formation (96 ± 0.88 vs. 15 ± 1.68) by suppressing the expression of osteoclast-specific genes, proteins and MAPK signalling pathway related proteins (p-ERK/ERK, p-JNK/JNK and p-P38/P38) in vitro. In addition, OVX rats exposed to FAEE maintained their normal calcium (Ca) (2.72 ± 0.02 vs. 2.63 ± 0.03, p < 0.05) balance, increased oestradiol levels (498.3 ± 9.43 vs. 398.7 ± 22.06, p < 0.05), simultaneously reduced levels of bone mineral density (BMD) (0.159 ± 0.0016 vs. 0.153 ± 0.0025, p < 0.05) and bone mineral content (BMC) (0.8 ± 0.0158 vs. 0.68 ± 0.0291, p < 0.01). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS These findings suggested that FAEE could be used to ameliorate osteoporosis by the MAPK signalling pathway, suggesting that FAEE could be a potential therapeutic candidate for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Hormonal homeostasis is essential in bone remodeling. Recent studies have shown that the treatment of intestinal inflammation can result in the regulation of bone resorption in distant bones. Increased intestinal permeability may lead to systemic inflammation and bone loss, also known as gut-bone axis. However, the underlying mechanism remains to be elucidated. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a component of gram-negative bacteria that can increase osteoclastic differentiation in vitro. Acyloxyacyl hydrolase (AOAH) is a specific degrading enzyme of LPS, but little is known about the role of AOAH in bone metabolism. In this study, adult Aoah-/- mice showed a chronic inflammatory state and osteopenic phenotype analyzed by micro-CT and HE staining. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining of femurs showed an increase in TRAP-positive cells from Aoah-/- mice. AOAH depletion enhanced the osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption capacity of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs). The enhanced osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption capacity of Aoah-/- BMMs were reversed by rAOAH. In conclusion, the chronic inflammatory state of adult Aoah-/- mice promotes bone resorption. AOAH participates in bone metabolism, which is mainly mediated by inhibiting osteoclast differentiation. LPS may be a key mediator of the gut-bone axis, and targeting AOAH may represent a feasible strategy for the treatment of chronic inflammatory bone resorption. KEY MESSAGES : AOAH knockout mice exhibited chronic inflammation mediated by LPS, and LPS may also serve as an important mediator in the regulation of bone metabolism in the gut-bone axis. AOAH regulated bone resorption by blocking the osteoclast differentiation via classical ERK and JNK pathways. rAOAH could rescue the enhanced osteoclast differentiation caused by AOAH deficiency.

Osteostatin Inhibits M-CSF+RANKL-Induced Human Osteoclast Differentiation by Modulating NFATc1. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23158551.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) C-terminal peptides regulate the metabolism of bone cells. PHTrP [107–111] (osteostatin) promotes bone repair in animal models of bone defects and prevents bone erosion in inflammatory arthritis. In addition to its positive effects on osteoblasts, osteostatin may inhibit bone resorption. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of osteostatin on human osteoclast differentiation and function. We used macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) to induce the osteoclast differentiation of adherent human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining was performed for the detection of the osteoclasts. The function of mature osteoclasts was assessed with a pit resorption assay. Gene expression was evaluated with qRT-PCR, and nuclear factor of activated T cells, cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1) nuclear translocation was studied by immunofluorescence. We observed that osteostatin (100, 250 and 500 nM) decreased the differentiation of osteoclasts in a concentration-dependent manner, but it did not modify the resorptive ability of mature osteoclasts. In addition, osteostatin decreased the mRNA levels of cathepsin K, osteoclast associated Ig-like receptor (OSCAR) and NFATc1. The nuclear translocation of the master transcription factor in osteoclast differentiation NFATc1 was reduced by osteostatin. Our results suggest that the anti-resorptive effects of osteostatin may be dependent on the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. This study has shown that osteostatin controls human osteoclast differentiation in vitro through the downregulation of NFATc1.

Abstract
Bone remodelling is generally a dynamic process orchestrated by bone-resorbing osteoclasts and bone-forming osteoblasts. Osteoclasts are the only cell type capable of bone resorption to maintain bone homeostasis in the human body. However, excessive osteoclastogenesis can lead to osteolytic diseases. The receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL) has been widely considered to be an important modulator of osteoclastogenesis thereby participating in the pathogenesis of osteolytic diseases. Transforming growth factor β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase family, is an important intracellular molecule that regulates multiple signalling pathways, such as NF-κB and mitogen-activated protein kinase to mediate multiple physiological processes, including cell survival, inflammation, and tumourigenesis. Furthermore, increasing evidence has demonstrated that TAK1 is intimately involved in RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. Moreover, several detailed mechanisms by which TAK1 regulates RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis have been clarified, and some potential approaches targeting TAK1 for the treatment of osteolytic diseases have emerged. In this review, we discuss how TAK1 functions in RANKL-mediated signalling pathways and highlight the significant role of TAK1 in RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. In addition, we discuss the potential clinical implications of TAK1 inhibitors for the treatment of osteolytic diseases.

Abstract
Osteoclasts (OCs) are the sole bone resorbing cells indispensable for bone remodeling. Hence, understanding of novel signaling modulators regulating OC formation is clinically important. Intraflagellar transport (IFT) proteins are important for cilia, cell signaling, and organ development. It remains unclear whether IFT80 plays a role in OCs. This study uncovers an intriguing role of IFT80 in OCs where the ciliary protein regulates the stability of critical OC factor TRAF6 via Cbl-b and thereby contributes to the maintenance of OC numbers. These findings provide further basis for understanding and delineating the role of IFT proteins in OCs that may provide new strategies for treatment of osteolytic diseases. Excess bone loss due to increased osteoclastogenesis is a significant clinical problem. Intraflagellar transport (IFT) proteins have been reported to regulate cell growth and differentiation. The role of IFT80, an IFT complex B protein, in osteoclasts (OCs) is completely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that deletion of IFT80 in the myeloid lineage led to increased OC formation and activity accompanied by severe bone loss in mice. IFT80 regulated OC formation by associating with Casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene-b (Cbl-b) to promote protein stabilization and proteasomal degradation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor–associated factor 6 (TRAF6). IFT80 knockdown resulted in increased ubiquitination of Cbl-b and higher TRAF6 levels, thereby hyperactivating the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κβ (NF-κβ) ligand (RANKL) signaling axis and increased OC formation. Ectopic overexpression of IFT80 rescued osteolysis in a calvarial model of bone loss. We have thus identified a negative function of IFT80 in OCs.

Abstract
Osteoclast-mediated bone resorption is responsible for bone metabolic diseases, negatively impacting people's health and life. It has been demonstrated that microRNA influences the differentiation of osteoclasts by regulating the signaling pathways during osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. So far, the involved mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. This review introduced the pathways involved in osteoclastogenesis and summarized the related microRNAs binding to their specific targets to mediate the downstream pathways in osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. We also discuss the clinical potential of targeting microRNAs to treat osteoclast-mediated bone resorption as well as the challenges of avoiding potential side effects and producing efficient delivery methods.

Abstract
Background: Aseptic loosening of prosthesis (ALP) is one of the most common long-term complications of knee and hip arthroplasty. Wear particle-induced osteoclastogenesis and subsequent periprosthetic osteolysis account for the morbidity of ALP. Here, we investigate the potential of cimifugin (CIM), a natural extract from Cimicifuga racemosa and Saposhnikovia divaricata, as a bone-protective drug in the treatment of ALP. Method: First, we performed cell viability and osteoclast formation assays to assess the effect of noncytotoxic CIM on osteoclast differentiation in vitro. Bone slice resorption and F-actin ring immunofluorescence assays were adopted to assess the effects of CIM on bone-resorption function. Then, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT–PCR) analysis was performed to further assess the repressive effects of CIM on osteoclastogenesis at the gene expression level. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying the above findings, Western blot and luciferase reporter gene assays were used to assess the regulatory effects of CIM on the NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways. Moreover, a Ti particle-induced murine calvarial osteolysis model and subsequent histomorphometric analysis via micro-CT and immunohistochemical staining were used to elucidate the effect of CIM on periprosthetic osteolysis in vivo. Result: CIM dose-dependently inhibited both bone marrow-derived macrophage (BMM)- and RAW264.7 cell-derived osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption pit formation in vitro, which was further supported by the reduced expression of F-actin and osteoclast-specific genes. According to the Western blot analysis, inhibition of IκBα phosphorylation in the NF-κB signaling pathway, not the phosphorylation of MAPKs, was responsible for the suppressive effect of CIM on osteoclastogenesis. Animal experiments demonstrated that CIM alleviated Ti particle-induced bone erosion and osteoclast accumulation in murine calvaria. Conclusion: The current study suggested for the first time that CIM can inhibit RANKL-induced osetoclastogenesis by suppressing the NF-κB signaling pathway in vitro and prevent periprosthetic osteolysis in vivo. These findings suggest the potential of CIM as a therapeutic in ALP.

Abstract
Human myeloma bone disease (MBD) occurs when malignant plasma cells migrate to the bone marrow and commence inimical interactions with stromal cells, disrupting the skeletal remodeling process. The myeloma cells simultaneously suppress osteoblastic bone formation while promoting excessive osteoclastic resorption. This bone metabolism imbalance produces osteolytic lesions that cause chronic bone pain and reduce trabecular and cortical bone structural integrity, and often culminate in pathological fractures. Few bone models exist that enable scientists to study MBD and the effect therapies have on restoring the bone metabolism imbalance. The purpose of this research was to develop a well characterized three-dimensional (3D) bone organoid that could be used to study MBD and current or potential treatment options. First, bone marrow stromal cell-derived osteoblasts (OBs) mineralized an endosteal-like extracellular matrix (ECM) over 21 days. Multiple analyses confirmed the generation of hydroxyapatite (HA)-rich bone-like tissue fragments that were abundant in alkaline phosphatase, calcium, and markers of osteoblastic gene expression. On day 22, bone marrow macrophage (BMM)-derived osteoclasts (OCs) were introduced to enhance the resorptive capability of the model and recapitulate the balanced homeostatic nature of skeletal remodeling. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAcP-5b), type I collagen C-telopeptide (CTX-1), and gene expression analysis confirmed OC activity in the normal 3D organoid (3D in vitro model of normal bonelike fragments [3D-NBF]). On day 30, a human multiple myeloma (MM)-derived plasmacytoma cell line was introduced to the 3D-NBF to generate the 3D-myeloma bone disease organoid (3D-MBD). After 12 days, the 3D-MBD had significantly reduced total HA, increased TRAcP-5b levels, increases levels of CTX-1, and decreased expression of osteoblastic genes. Therapeutic intervention with pharmaceutical agents including an immunomodulatory drug, a bisphosphonate, and monoclonal restored HA content and reduced free CTX-1 in a dose-dependent manner. This osteogenically functional model of MBD provides a novel tool to study biological mechanisms guiding the disease and to screen potential therapeutics. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Aging is associated with excessive bone loss that is not counteracted with the development of new bone. However, the mechanisms underlying age-related bone loss are not completely clear. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a population of heterogenous immature myeloid cells with immunosuppressive functions that are known to stimulate tumor-induced bone lysis. In this study, we investigated the association of MDSCs and age-related bone loss in mice. Our results shown that aging increased the accumulation of MDSCs in the bone marrow and spleen, while in the meantime potentiated the osteoclastogenic activity of the CD11b+Ly6ChiLy6G+ monocytic subpopulation of MDSCs. In addition, CD11b+Ly6ChiLy6G+ MDSCs from old mice exhibited increased expression of c-fms compared to young mice, and were more sensitive to RANKL-induced osteoclast gene expression. On the other hand, old mice showed elevated production of IL-6 and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) in the circulation. Furthermore, IL-6 and RANKL were able to induce the proliferation of CD11b+Ly6ChiLy6G+ MDSCs and up-regulate c-fms expression. Moreover, CD11b+Ly6ChiLy6G+ MDSCs obtained from old mice showed increased antigen-specific T cell suppressive function, pStat3 expression, and cytokine production in response to inflammatory stimulation, compared to those cells obtained from young mice. Our findings suggest that CD11b+Ly6ChiLy6G+ MDSCs are a source of osteoclast precursors that together with the presence of persistent, low-grade inflammation, contribute to age-associated bone loss in mice.

Abstract
The osteogenic effects of Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) were delineated in 1965 when Urist et al. showed that BMPs could induce ectopic bone formation. In subsequent decades, the effects of BMPs on bone formation and maintenance were established. BMPs induce proliferation in osteoprogenitor cells and increase mineralization activity in osteoblasts. The role of BMPs in bone homeostasis and repair led to the approval of BMP2 by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) for anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) to increase the bone formation in the treated area. However, the use of BMP2 for treatment of degenerative bone diseases such as osteoporosis is still uncertain as patients treated with BMP2 results in the stimulation of not only osteoblast mineralization, but also osteoclast absorption, leading to early bone graft subsidence. The increase in absorption activity is the result of direct stimulation of osteoclasts by BMP2 working synergistically with the RANK signaling pathway. The dual effect of BMPs on bone resorption and mineralization highlights the essential role of BMP-signaling in bone homeostasis, making it a putative therapeutic target for diseases like osteoporosis. Before the BMP pathway can be utilized in the treatment of osteoporosis a better understanding of how BMP-signaling regulates osteoclasts must be established.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontitis disease infection initiates host immune response, and alveolar bone damage is a hallmark of periodontitis. Bone damage occurs due to changes in osteoclast activity in response to local inflammation. Nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling is essential for inflammatory responses and plays a pivotal role in osteoclast formation and activation. Tripartite motif 14 (Trim14) is a crucial regulator of the noncanonical NF-κB signaling. Here, we investigated the role of Trim14 in chronic periodontitis. METHODS The development of immune cells and osteoclast formation was evaluated with flow cytometry, qRT-PCR, and histochemical staining. Proinflammatory cytokines were checked by ELISA and qRT-PCR. Protein expression was determined by immunoblotting. Also, the cemento-enamel junction-alveolar bone crest distance was evaluated in the mouse model. RESULTS Development of innate and adaptive cells was not impaired from the deletion of Trim14. However, the genetic loss of Trim14 remarkably suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis, without affecting TLR-induced proinflammatory cytokines except for Il-23a expression. The Trim14 deletion also suppressed the activation of noncanonical NF-κB signaling by targeting p100/p52. Importantly, the deletion of NIK diminished the effects of Trim14 on the inflammatory responses in vivo on chronic periodontitis responses. CONCLUSION TRIM14 may be a positive regulator to promote osteoclastogenesis and proinflammatory cytokine secretion.

Selenoprotein W ensures physiological bone remodeling by preventing hyperactivity of osteoclasts. Nat Commun 2021; 12:2258.

Abstract
Selenoproteins containing selenium in the form of selenocysteine are critical for bone remodeling. However, their underlying mechanism of action is not fully understood. Herein, we report the identification of selenoprotein W (SELENOW) through large-scale mRNA profiling of receptor activator of nuclear factor (NF)-κΒ ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation, as a protein that is downregulated via RANKL/RANK/tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6/p38 signaling. RNA-sequencing analysis revealed that SELENOW regulates osteoclastogenic genes. SELENOW overexpression enhances osteoclastogenesis in vitro via nuclear translocation of NF-κB and nuclear factor of activated T-cells cytoplasmic 1 mediated by 14-3-3γ, whereas its deficiency suppresses osteoclast formation. SELENOW-deficient and SELENOW-overexpressing mice exhibit high bone mass phenotype and osteoporosis, respectively. Ectopic SELENOW expression stimulates cell-cell fusion critical for osteoclast maturation as well as bone resorption. Thus, RANKL-dependent repression of SELENOW regulates osteoclast differentiation and blocks osteoporosis caused by overactive osteoclasts. These findings demonstrate a biological link between selenium and bone metabolism. Selenoproteins containing selenium have a variety of physiological functions including redox homeostasis and thyroid hormone metabolism. Here, the authors show that RANKL-dependent repression of selenoprotein W regulates cell fusion during osteoclast differentiation and bone remodelling in mice.

Abstract
Abnormal osteoclastic activation and secretion of cysteine proteinases result in excessive bone resorption, which is one of the primary factors in the development of bone metabolic disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis. Mammalian cystatins have been demonstrated to restrain osteoclastic bone resorption and to alleviate severe osteolytic destruction via blocking the activity of cysteine proteinases. However, the specific effects of parasite cystatins on the formation and function of osteoclasts remain unclear. The purpose of the current study was to explore the effects of cystatins from Schistosoma japonicum (Sj‑Cys) on macrophage colony‑stimulating factor (M‑CSF) and receptor activator of NF‑κB ligand (RANKL)‑induced osteoclast differentiation, as well as the underlying molecular mechanisms. Recombinant Sj‑Cys (rSj‑Cys) dose‑dependently restrained osteoclast formation, with a half‑maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 0.3 µM, and suppressed osteoclastic bone resorptive capability in vitro. The findings were based on tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining and bone resorption assays, respectively. However, the cell viability assay showed that the repression of rSj‑Cys on osteoclast formation did not depend on effects on cell viability or apoptosis. Based on the results of reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR and western blot analysis, it was found that rSj‑Cys downregulated the expression levels of osteoclastogenesis‑related genes and proteins, by interfering with M‑CSF and RANKL‑induced NF‑κB signaling and downstream transcription factors during early‑phase osteoclastogenesis. Overall, the results of the present study revealed that rSj‑Cys exerted an inhibitory role in osteoclast differentiation and could be a prospective biotherapeutic candidate for the treatment and prevention of bone metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Alismatis rhizoma (AR) is the dried rhizome of Alisma orientale (Sam.) Juz. (Alismataceae). This traditional Chinese formula is diuretic, hypoglycemic, and hypolipidemic. Alisol C 23-acetate (AC23A) from AR is anti-inflammatory and ameliorates certain metabolic diseases. However, the mechanism by which AC23A mitigates osteoporosis is unknown. The present study investigated the anti-osteoporotic effects of AC23A in vivo and in vitro. In an ovariectomized (OVX) rat model, AC23A ameliorated OVX-induced organ coefficients and trabecular bone loss. In OVX rats, AC23A treatment lowered serum TRAP5b, CTK, β-CTX, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, raised serum E2, and did not significantly change serum OCN or BALP. AC23A inhibited osteoclast formation in a rat co-culture system without affecting osteoblast activity. RANK (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB) signaling channels are vital osteoclastogenesis transcription elements. AC23A inhibited RANK ligand (RANKL)-induced TRAP, c-Fos, MMP9, NFATc1, and CTK expression and JNK phosphorylation. Therefore, AC23A is anti-osteoclastogenic in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and function. Moreover, AC23A could help prevent or limit osteoclast-mediated bone diseases by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
Introduction Osteoporosis is an osteolytic bone condition characterized by decreased bone strength and increased bone fragility. It is the result of elevated formation or activity of bone-resorbing osteoclasts. Although current therapeutic agents are efficacious against osteoclast-mediated bone loss, detrimental side effects preclude the long-term use of these agents. Pristimerin (PRI) is a naturally occurring quinone-methide triterpenoid that has been revealed to exert anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor effects via regulating various signaling cascades including NF-κB and MAPK activation. Methods The bone marrow macrophages were used to confirm the anti-osteoclastic and anti-resorptive functions of PRI in vitro. An in vivo ovariectomy (OVX) model was applied to verify the function of PRI protecting bone loss. Results PRI abolished the early activation of NF-κB and ERK MAPK signal cascades thereby thwarting the downstream expression of c-Fos and NFATc1, which prevented the production of mature osteoclasts. In vivo, PRI protects mice against ovariectomy (OVX)-mediated bone loss by diminishing osteoclast formation and bone resorptive activity. Conclusion Our study shows that PRI demonstrates therapeutic potential in the effective treatment against osteoclast-induced osteolytic diseases like osteoporosis.

Abstract
Background Artificial joint replacement surgery is often accompanied by osteolysis induced aseptic loosening around the prosthesis. Wear particles from joint replacement are thought to be one of the main factors leading to local inflammation and osteolysis at the prosthesis site. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanism of osteoclast formation and dissolution induced by wear particles and the potential roles of Netrin‐1, the ERK1/2 pathway and autophagy activation in this process. Methods The messenger RNA levels in cells and tissues were detected with real‐time quantitative PCR. The western blotting was used to detect the expression of proteins. A CCK‐8 kit was used to detect the viability of RAW 264.7 cells. Moreover, an air pouch model of bone resorption was established. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of TRAP and Netrin‐1 in rat bone tissue. Cell culture supernatants were collected in the rat air pouch model of bone resorption, and the levels of RANKL and OPG were detected with enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. The protein levels of TRAP and Netrin‐1 in bone tissue were examined by immunohistochemistry. Results Titanium wear particles induced osteoclast formation and autophagy activation. Moreover, blocking autophagy suppressed the osteoclastogenesis after exposure to wear particles in vitro. The activation of the ERK1/2 pathway and the overexpression of Netrin‐1 were both found to play important roles in osteoclastogenesis mediated by autophagy. Moreover, 3‐MA effectively decreased the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines mediated by wear particles. Conclusion Blockade of autophagy inhibits the osteoclastogenesis and inflammation induced by wear particles, thus potentially providing novel treatment strategies for abnormal osteoclastogenesis and aseptic prosthesis loosening induced by wear particles.

Abstract
Rab11b, abundantly enriched in endocytic recycling compartments, is required for the establishment of the machinery of vesicle trafficking. Yet, no report has so far characterized the biological function of Rab11b in osteoclastogenesis. Using in vitro model of osteoclasts differentiated from murine macrophages like RAW-D cells or bone marrow-derived macrophages, we elucidated that Rab11b served as an inhibitory regulator of osteoclast differentiation sequentially via (i) abolishing surface abundance of RANK and c-Fms receptors; and (ii) attenuating nuclear factor of activated T-cells c1 (NFATc-1) upstream signaling cascades, following RANKL stimulation. Rab11b was localized in early and late endosomes, Golgi complex, and endoplasmic reticulum; moreover, its overexpression enlarged early and late endosomes. Upon inhibition of lysosomal function by a specific blocker, chloroquine (CLQ), we comprehensively clarified a novel function of lysosomes on mediating proteolytic degradation of c-Fms and RANK surface receptors, drastically ameliorated by Rab11b overexpression in RAW-D cell-derived osteoclasts. These findings highlight the key role of Rab11b as an inhibitor of osteoclastogenesis by directing the transport of c-Fms and RANK surface receptors to lysosomes for degradation via the axis of early endosomes-late endosomes-lysosomes, thereby contributing towards the systemic equilibrium of the bone resorption phase.

Abstract
Aseptic prosthetic loosening due to wear particle-induced inflammatory osteolysis is the main cause of failure for artificial joint replacement. The inflammatory response and the production of pro-osteoclastic factors lead to elevation of osteoclast formation and excessive activity results in extensive bone destruction around the bone-implant interface. Here we showed that Nepetin, a natural bioactive flavonoid with proven anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative properties, potently inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation, formation and bone resorption in vitro, and protected mice against the deleterious effects of titanium particle-induced calvarial osteolysis in vivo. Mechanistically, Nepetin attenuated RANKL-induced activation of NF-κB and MAPK signalling pathways and TRAF6-dependent ubiquitination of Beclin 1 which is necessary for the induction of autophagy. In brief, our study demonstrates the potential therapeutic application of Nepetin against osteoclast-mediated osteolytic diseases.

Cai X, Li Z, Zhao Y, Katz J, Michalek SM, Feng X, Li Y, Zhang P. Enhanced dual function of osteoclast precursors following calvarial Porphyromonas gingivalis infection. J Periodontal Res 2020; 55:410-425. [PMID: 31944305 PMCID: PMC7250733 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2019] [Revised: 10/23/2019] [Accepted: 11/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Excessive osteoclast activity is a major characteristic of pathogenic bone loss in inflammatory bone diseases including periodontitis. However, beyond the knowledge that osteoclasts are differentiated from the monocyte/macrophage lineage and share common ancestry with macrophages and DC, the nature and function of osteoclast precursors are not completely understood. Furthermore, little is known about how osteoclast precursors respond to bacterial infection in vivo. We have previously demonstrated in vitro that the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) plays a biphasic role on the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation. In this study, we investigated the in vivo effect of Pg infection on the regulation of osteoclast precursors, using a mouse calvarial infection model. METHODS AND RESULTS C57BL/6 wild-type and the myeloid differentiation factor 88 knockout (MyD88-/- ) mice were infected with Pg by calvarial injection. Local and systemic bone loss, and the number and function of CD11b+ c-fms+ cells from bone marrow and spleen were analyzed. Our results show that Pg infection induces localized inflammatory infiltration and osteoclastogenesis, as well as increased number and osteoclastogenic potential of CD11b+ c-fms+ osteoclast precursors in the bone marrow and periphery. We also show that CD11b+ c-fms+ RANK+ and CD11b+ c-fms+ RANK- are precursors with similar osteoclastogenic and pro-inflammatory potentials. In addition, CD11b+ c-fms+ cells exhibit an antigen-specific T-cell immune-suppressive activity, which are increased with Pg infection. Moreover, we demonstrate that MyD88 is involved in the regulation of osteoclast precursors upon Pg infection. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we demonstrate an enhanced dual function of osteoclast precursors following calvarial Pg infection. Based on our findings, we propose the following model: Pg infection increases a pool of precursor cells that can be shunted toward osteoclast formation at the infection/inflammation sites, while at the same time dampening host immune responses, which is beneficial for the persistence of infection and maintenance of the characteristic chronic nature of periodontitis. Understanding the nature, function, and regulation of osteoclast precursors will be helpful for identifying therapeutic interventions to aid in the control and prevention of inflammatory bone loss diseases including periodontitis.

Combined administration of a small-molecule inhibitor of TRAF6 and Docetaxel reduces breast cancer skeletal metastasis and osteolysis. Cancer Lett 2020; 488:27-39. [PMID: 32474152 DOI: 10.1016/j.canlet.2020.05.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2020] [Revised: 05/08/2020] [Accepted: 05/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) has been implicated in breast cancer and osteoclastic bone destruction. Here, we report that 6877002, a verified small-molecule inhibitor of TRAF6, reduced metastasis, osteolysis and osteoclastogenesis in models of osteotropic human and mouse breast cancer. First, we observed that TRAF6 is highly expressed in osteotropic breast cancer cells and its level of expression was higher in patients with bone metastasis. Pre-exposure of osteoclasts and osteoblasts to non-cytotoxic concentrations of 6877002 inhibited cytokine-induced NFκB activation and osteoclastogenesis, and reduced the ability of osteotropic human MDA-MB-231 and mouse 4T1 breast cancer cells to support bone cell activity. 6877002 inhibited human MDA-MB-231-induced osteolysis in the mouse calvaria organ system, and reduced soft tissue and bone metastases in immuno-competent mice following intra-cardiac injection of mouse 4T1-Luc2 cells. Of clinical relevance, combined administration of 6877002 with Docetaxel reduced metastasis and inhibited osteolytic bone damage in mice bearing 4T1-Luc2 cells. Thus, TRAF6 inhibitors such as 6877002 - alone or in combination with conventional chemotherapy - show promise for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2020; 69:153195. [PMID: 32200293 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2020.153195] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2019] [Revised: 01/13/2020] [Accepted: 02/21/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Areca nut has anti-inflammatory, antiparasitic, antihypertensive, and antidepressant properties. The pathological hallmarks of inflammatory joint diseases are an increased number of osteoclasts and impaired differentiation of osteoblasts, which may disrupt the bone remodeling balance and eventually lead to bone loss. PURPOSE The present study assessed the effects of arecoline, the main alkaloid found in areca nut, on osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation and function. METHOD M-CSF/RANKL-stimulated murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) were incubated with several concentrations of arecoline, and TRAP staining and pit formation were assessed to monitor osteoclast formation. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR and western blot analyses were used to analyze the expression of osteoclast-associated genes and signaling pathways. The effects of arecoline on bone were investigated in an in vivo mouse model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced trabecular bone loss after oral administration of arecoline. Alizarin red S staining and assays to measure ALP activity and the transcription level of osteoblast-related genes were used to evaluate the effects of arecoline on osteoblast differentiation and bone mineralization. RESULTS In a dose-dependent manner, arecoline at concentrations of 50-100 μM reduced both the development of TRAP-positive multinucleated osteoclasts and the formation of resorption pits in M-CSF/RANKL-stimulated BMMs. In M-CSF/RANKL-stimulated BMMs, arecoline also suppressed the expression and translocation of c-Fos and NFATcl, and osteoclast differentiated-related genes via interference with the AKT, MAPK, and NF-kB activation pathways. Femur bone loss and microcomputed tomography parameters were recovered by oral administration of arecoline in the mouse LPS-induced bone loss model. Lastly, arecoline increased ALP activity, bone mineralization, and the expression of osteoblast differentiation-related genes, such as ALP and Runx2, in MC3T3-E1 cells. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that arecoline may attenuate or prevent bone loss by suppressing osteoclastogenesis and promoting osteoblastogenesis. These findings provide evidence supporting arecoline's use as a potential therapeutic agent in bone-loss disorders and diseases.

Abstract
Natural compounds extracted from plants have gained immense importance in the fight against cancer cells due to their lesser toxicity and potential therapeutic effects. Raddeanin A (RA), an oleanane type triterpenoid is a major compound isolated from Anemone raddeana Regel. As an anticancer agent, RA induces apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, inhibits invasion, migration and angiogenesis in malignant cell lines as well as in preclinical models. In this systemic review, the pharmacological effects of RA and its underlying molecular mechanisms were carefully analyzed and potential molecular targets have been highlighted. The apoptotic potential of RA can be mediated through the modulation of Bcl-2, Bax, caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9, cytochrome c and poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) cleavage. PI3K/Akt signaling pathway serves as the major molecular target affected by RA. Furthermore, RA can block cell proliferation through inhibition of canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in colorectal cancer cells. RA can also alter the activation of NF-κB and STAT3 signaling pathways to suppress invasion and metastasis. RA has also exhibited promising anticancer potential against drug resistant cancer cells and can enhance the anticancer effects of several chemotherapeutic agents. Overall, RA may function as a promising compound in combating cancer, although further in-depth study is required under clinical settings to validate its efficacy in cancer patients.

Abstract
Excessive activation of osteoclast activity is responsible for many bone diseases, such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, periprosthetic osteolysis, and periodontitis. Natural compounds that inhibit osteoclast formation and/or function have therapeutic potential for treating these diseases. Catalpol, a bioactive iridoid extracted from a traditional herbal medicine Rehmannia glutinosa, exhibits various pharmacological properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antidiabetic, and antitumor effects. However, its effects on osteoclast formation and function remain unknown. In the present study, we showed that catalpol inhibited receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption, as well as the expression of osteoclast-related marker genes. The investigation of molecular mechanisms showed that catalpol upregulated phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) activity by reducing its ubiquitination and degradation, subsequently suppressing RANKL-induced NF-κB and AKT signaling pathways, leading to an inhibition on NFATc1 induction. Furthermore, catalpol protected mice against inflammation- and ovariectomy-induced bone loss by inhibiting osteoclast activity in vivo. These results suggest that catalpol might be developed as a promising candidate for treating osteoclast-related bone diseases.

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

Abstract
Osteoporosis is an important health problem worldwide. Siwu decoction (SWD) and its modification have a good clinical effect on osteoporosis. However, the molecular mechanism of SWD on osteoporosis has not been thoroughly explained. A systematic pharmacological methodology was utilized to predict the active compounds and potential targets of SWD, collect the genes of osteoporosis and the known targets of SWD, and analyze the osteoporosis and SWD's network. Five networks were constructed and analyzed: (1) Osteoporosis genes' protein-protein interaction (PPI) network; (2) Compound-compound target network of SWD; (3) SWD-osteoporosis PPI network; (4) Compound-known target network of SWD; and (5) SWD known target- osteoporosis PPI network. Several osteoporosis and treatment-related targets (eg.,. HSP90AB1, FGFR1, HRAS, GRB2, and PGF), clusters, biological processes, and signaling pathways (e.g., PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, insulin signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway and FoxO signaling pathway) were found. The therapeutic effect of SWD on osteoporosis may be achieved by interfering with the biological processes and signaling pathways related to the development of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a disease that leads to reduced bone mineral density. The increase in patient and medical costs because of global aging is recognized as a problem. Decreased bone mass is a common symptom of bone diseases such as Paget's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple myeloma. Osteoclasts, which directly affect bone mass, show a marked increase in differentiation and activation in the aforementioned diseases. Moreover, these multinucleated cells made from monocytes/macrophages under the influence of RANKL and M-CSF, are the only cells capable of resorbing bones. In this study, we found that the water extracts of Boseokchal (BSC-W) inhibited osteoclast differentiation in vitro and investigated its inhibitory mechanism. BSC-W was obtained by extracting flour of Boseokchal using hexane and water. To osteoclast differentiation, bone marrow-derived macrophage cells (BMMs) were cultured with the vehicle (0.1% DMSO) or BSC-W in the presence of M-CSF and RANKL for 4 days. Cytotoxicity was measured by CCK-8. Gene expression of cells was confirmed by real-time PCR. Protein expression of cells was observed by western blot assay. Bone resorption activity of osteoclast evaluated by bone pit formation assay using an Osteo Assay Plate. BSC-W inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis in a dose-dependent manner without exerting a cytotoxic effect on BMMs. BSC-W decreased the transcriptional and translational expression of c-Fos and NFATc1, which are regulators of osteoclastogenesis and reduced the mRNA expression level of TRAP, DC-STAMP, and cathepsin K, which are osteoclast differentiation marker. Furthermore, BSC-W reduced the resorption activity of osteoclasts. Taken together, our results indicate that BSC-W is a useful candidate for health functional foods or therapeutic agents that can help treat bone diseases such as osteoporosis.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are both important causes of mortality and morbidity in aging patients. There are common mechanisms underlying the regulation of bone remodeling and the development of smooth muscle calcification; a temporal relationship exists between osteoporosis and the imbalance of mineral metabolism in the vessels. Vascular calcification appears regulated by mechanisms that include both inductive and inhibitory processes. Multiple factors are implicated in both bone and vascular metabolism. Among these factors, the superfamily of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptors including osteoprotegerin (OPG) and its ligands has been established. OPG is a soluble decoy receptor for receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB ligand (RANKL) and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). OPG binds to RANKL and TRAIL, and inhibits the association with their receptors, which have been labeled as the receptor activator of NF-kB (RANK). Sustained release of OPG from vascular endothelial cells (ECs) has been demonstrated in response to inflammatory proteins and cytokines, suggesting that OPG/RANKL/RANK system plays a modulatory role in vascular injury and inflammation. For the development of potential therapeutic strategies targeting vascular calcification, critical consideration of the implications for bone metabolism must be taken into account to prevent potentially detrimental effects to bone metabolism.

Abstract
NFκB is implicated in cancer and bone remodelling, and we have recently reported that the verified NFκB inhibitor Parthenolide (PTN) reduced osteolysis and skeletal tumour growth in models of metastatic breast cancer. Here, we took advantage of in vitro and ex vivo bone cell and organ cultures to study the effects of PTN on the ability of prostate cancer cells and their derived factors to regulate bone cell activity and osteolysis. PTN inhibited the in vitro growth of a panel of human, mouse and rat prostate cancer cells in a concentration-dependent manner with a varying degree of potency. In prostate cancer cell-osteoclast co-cultures, the rat Mat-Ly-Lu, but not human PC3 or mouse RM1-BT, enhanced RANKL stimulated osteoclast formation and PTN reduced these effects without affecting prostate cancer cell viability. In the absence of cancer cells, PTN reduced the support of Mat-Ly-Lu conditioned medium for the adhesion and spreading of osteoclast precursors, and survival of mature osteoclasts. Pre-exposure of osteoblasts to PTN prior to the addition of conditioned medium from Mat-Ly-Lu cells suppressed their ability to support the formation of osteoclasts by inhibition of RANKL/OPG ratio. PTN enhanced the ability of Mat-Ly-Lu derived factors to increase calvarial osteoblast differentiation and growth. Ex vivo, PTN enhanced bone volume in calvaria organ-Mat-Ly-Lu cell co-culture, without affecting Mat-Ly-Lu viability or apoptosis. Mechanistic studies in osteoclasts and osteoblasts confirmed that PTN inhibit NFκB activation related to derived factors from Mat-Ly-Lu cells. Collectively, these findings suggest that pharmacological inhibition of the skeletal NFκB signalling pathway reduces prostate cancer related osteolysis, but further studies in the therapeutic implications of NFκB inhibition in cells of the osteoblastic lineage are needed.

Stachydrine prevents LPS-induced bone loss by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis via NF-κB and Akt signalling. J Cell Mol Med 2019; 23:6730-6743. [PMID: 31328430 PMCID: PMC6787569 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.14551] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2019] [Revised: 06/10/2019] [Accepted: 06/15/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Osteoclast overactivation‐induced imbalance in bone remodelling leads to pathological bone destruction, which is a characteristic of many osteolytic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, periprosthetic osteolysis and periodontitis. Natural compounds that suppress osteoclast formation and function have therapeutic potential for treating these diseases. Stachydrine (STA) is a bioactive alkaloid isolated from Leonurus heterophyllus Sweet and possesses antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, anticancer and cardioprotective properties. However, its effects on osteoclast formation and function have been rarely described. In the present study, we found that STA suppressed receptor activator of nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) ligand (RANKL)‐induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption, and reduced osteoclast‐related gene expression in vitro. Mechanistically, STA inhibited RANKL‐induced activation of NF‐κB and Akt signalling, thus suppressing nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 induction and nuclear translocation. In addition, STA alleviated bone loss and reduced osteoclast number in a murine model of LPS‐induced inflammatory bone loss. STA also inhibited the activities of NF‐κB and NFATc1 in vivo. Together, these results suggest that STA effectively inhibits osteoclastogenesis both in vitro and in vivo and therefore is a potential option for treating osteoclast‐related diseases.

Abstract
Background Osteoporosis is a geriatric disease with diminished bone density. The increase in the number of patients and medical expenses due to a global aging society are recognized as problems. Bone loss is the most common symptom of bone disease, not only osteoporosis but Paget's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple myeloma, and other diseases. The main cause of this symptoms is excessive increase in the number and activity of osteoclasts. Osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cells that can resorb bone. They are differentiated and activation from monocytes/macrophages in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL). Methods The effect of extract of Flavoparmelia sp. (EFV), a genus of lichenized fungi within the Parmeliaceae, on the differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) into osteoclasts was examined by phenotype assay and the cell cytotoxicity was evaluated by cell counting kit-8. The osteoclast differentiation-related genes and proteins were investigated by real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunoblotting. The functional activity of osteoclast in response to EFV treatment was evaluated by an Osteo Assay plate. Results In this study, we found that EFV, a genus of lichenized fungi within the Parmeliaceae, inhibited osteoclast formation. And we investigated its inhibitory mechanism. EFV reduced RANKL-mediated osteoclast formation and activation by inhibiting expression of nuclear factor of activated T cells 1, a key factor of osteoclastogenesis. Conclusions Taken together, our results show that EFV is a promising candidate for health functional foods or therapeutic agents that can help treat bone diseases such as osteoporosis.

Arch Pharm Res 2019; 42:712-721. [PMID: 31161369 DOI: 10.1007/s12272-019-01163-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2018] [Accepted: 05/21/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Since increased number of osteoclasts could lead to impaired bone structure and low bone mass, which are common characteristics of bone disorders including osteoporosis, the pharmacological inhibition of osteoclast differentiation is one of therapeutic strategies for preventing and/or treating bone disorders and related facture. However, little data are available regarding the functional relevance of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) isoforms in the osteoclast differentiation process. To elucidate the functional involvement of PI3Kδ in osteoclastogenesis, here we investigated how osteoclast differentiation was influenced by idelalisib (also called CAL-101), which is p110δ-selective inhibitor approved for the treatment of specific human B cell malignancies. Here, we found that receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) induced PI3Kδ protein expression, and idelalisib inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation. Next, the inhibitory effect of idelalisib on RANKL-induced activation of the Akt-c-Fos/NFATc1 signaling cascade was confirmed by western blot analysis and real-time PCR. Finally, idelalisib inhibited pre-osteoclast migration in the last stage of osteoclast differentiation through down-regulation of the Akt-c-Fos/NFATc1 signaling cascade. It may be possible to expand the clinical use of idelalisib for controlling osteoclast differentiation. Together, the present results contribute to our understanding of the clinical value of PI3Kδ as a druggable target and the efficacy of related therapeutics including osteoclastogenesis.
