Abstract
Cytokines and hematopoietic growth factors have traditionally been thought of as regulators of the development and function of immune and blood cells. However, an ever-expanding number of these factors have been discovered to have major effects on bone cells and the development of the skeleton in health and disease (Table 1). In addition, several cytokines have been directly linked to the development of osteoporosis in both animal models and in patients. In order to understand the mechanisms regulating bone cells and how this may be dysregulated in disease states, it is necessary to appreciate the diverse effects that cytokines and inflammation have on osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and bone mass. This chapter provides a broad overview of this topic with extensive references so that, if desired, readers can access specific references to delve into individual topics in greater detail.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) signaling is far more complex than initially anticipated and can lead to either anti- or protumorigenic effects, hampering the successful clinical use of therapeutic TRAIL receptor agonists. Cell autonomous resistance mechanisms have been identified in addition to paracrine factors that can modulate apoptosis sensitivity. The tumor microenvironment (TME), consisting of cellular and non-cellular components, is a source for multiple signals that are able to modulate TRAIL signaling in tumor and stromal cells. Particularly immune effector cells, also part of the TME, employ the TRAIL/TRAIL-R system whereby cell surface expressed TRAIL can activate apoptosis via TRAIL receptors on tumor cells, which is part of tumor immune surveillance. In this review we aim to dissect the impact of the TME on signaling induced by endogenous and exogenous/therapeutic TRAIL, thereby distinguishing different components of the TME such as immune effector cells, neutrophils, macrophages, and non-hematopoietic stromal cells. In addition, also non-cellular biochemical and biophysical properties of the TME are considered including mechanical stress, acidity, hypoxia, and glucose deprivation. Available literature thus far indicates that tumor-TME interactions are complex and often bidirectional leading to tumor-enhancing or tumor-reducing effects in a tumor model- and tumor type-dependent fashion. Multiple signals originating from different components of the TME simultaneously affect TRAIL receptor signaling. We conclude that in order to unleash the full clinical potential of TRAIL receptor agonists it will be necessary to increase our understanding of the contribution of different TME components on outcome of therapeutic TRAIL receptor activation in order to identify the most critical mechanism responsible for resistance, allowing the design of effective combination treatments.

Bone Mass Is Compromised by the Chemotherapeutic Trabectedin in Association With Effects on Osteoblasts and Macrophage Efferocytosis. J Bone Miner Res 2017; 32:2116-2127.

Abstract
Macrophages have established roles supporting bone formation. Despite their professional phagocytic nature, the role of macrophage phagocytosis in bone homeostasis is not well understood. Interestingly, apoptosis is a pivotal feature of cellular regulation and the primary fate of osteoblasts is apoptosis. Efferocytosis (phagocytosis of apoptotic cells) is a key physiologic process for the homeostasis of many tissues, and is associated with expression of osteoinductive factors. To test effects of macrophage depletion and compromised phagocytosis on bone, 16-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were treated with trabectedin-a chemotherapeutic with established anti-macrophage effects. Trabectedin treatment reduced F4/80+ and CD68+ macrophages in the bone marrow as assessed by flow cytometry, osteal macrophages near the bone surface, and macrophage viability in vitro. Trabectedin treatment significantly reduced marrow gene expression of key phagocytic factors (Mfge8, Mrc1), and macrophages from treated mice had a reduced ability to phagocytose apoptotic mimicry beads. Macrophages cultured in vitro and treated with trabectedin displayed reduced efferocytosis of apoptotic osteoblasts. Moreover, efferocytosis increased macrophage osteoinductive TGF-β production and this increase was inhibited by trabectedin. Long-term (6-week) treatment of 16-week-old C57BL/6J mice with trabectedin significantly reduced trabecular BV/TV and cortical BMD. Although trabectedin reduced osteoclast numbers in vitro, osteoclast surface in vivo was not altered. Trabectedin treatment reduced serum P1NP as well as MS/BS and BFR/BS, and inhibited mineralization and Runx2 gene expression of osteoblast cultures. Finally, intermittent PTH 1-34 (iPTH) treatment was administered in combination with trabectedin, and iPTH increased trabecular bone volume fraction (BV/TV) in trabectedin-treated mice. Collectively, the data support a model whereby trabectedin significantly reduces bone mass due to compromised macrophages and efferocytosis, but also due to direct effects on osteoblasts. This data has immediate clinical relevance in light of increasing use of trabectedin in oncology. © 2017 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Mechanism of Action of Bortezomib and the New Proteasome Inhibitors on Myeloma Cells and the Bone Microenvironment: Impact on Myeloma-Induced Alterations of Bone Remodeling. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2015; 2015:172458.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by a high capacity to induce alterations in the bone remodeling process. The increase in osteoclastogenesis and the suppression of osteoblast formation are both involved in the pathophysiology of the bone lesions in MM. The proteasome inhibitor (PI) bortezomib is the first drug designed and approved for the treatment of MM patients by targeting the proteasome. However, recently novel PIs have been developed to overcome bortezomib resistance. Interestingly, several preclinical data indicate that the proteasome complex is involved in both osteoclast and osteoblast formation. It is also evident that bortezomib either inhibits osteoclast differentiation induced by the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL) or stimulates the osteoblast differentiation. Similarly, the new PIs including carfilzomib and ixazomib can inhibit bone resorption and stimulate the osteoblast differentiation. In a clinical setting, PIs restore the abnormal bone remodeling by normalizing the levels of bone turnover markers. In addition, a bone anabolic effect was described in responding MM patients treated with PIs, as demonstrated by the increase in the osteoblast number. This review summarizes the preclinical and clinical evidence on the effects of bortezomib and other new PIs on myeloma bone disease.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a B-cell malignancy characterized by the unrelenting proliferation of plasma cells. Multiple myeloma causes osteolytic lesions and fractures that do not heal due to decreased osteoblastic and increased osteoclastic activity. However, the exact relationship between osteoblasts and myeloma cells remains elusive. Understanding the interactions between these dynamic bone-forming cells and myeloma cells is crucial to understanding how osteolytic lesions form and persist and how tumors grow within the bone marrow. This review provides a comprehensive overview of basic and translational research focused on the role of osteoblasts in multiple myeloma progression and their relationship to osteolytic lesions. Importantly, current challenges for in vitro studies exploring direct osteoblastic effects on myeloma cells, and gaps in understanding the role of the osteoblast in myeloma progression are delineated. Finally, successes and challenges in myeloma treatment with osteoanabolic therapy (i.e., any treatment that induces increased osteoblastic number or activity) are enumerated. Our goal is to illuminate novel mechanisms by which osteoblasts may contribute to multiple myeloma disease progression and osteolysis to better direct research efforts. Ultimately, we hope this may provide a roadmap for new approaches to the pathogenesis and treatment of multiple myeloma with a particular focus on the osteoblast.

Abstract
Apoptosis can occur throughout the life span of osteoblasts (OBs), beginning from the early stages of differentiation and continuing throughout all stages of their working life. Here, we investigated the effects of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) on normal human OBs showing for the first time that the expression of TRAIL receptors is modulated during OB differentiation. In particular, the TRAIL receptor ratio was in favor of the deaths because of the low expression of DcR2 in undifferentiated OBs, differently it was shifted toward the decoys in differentiated ones. Undifferentiated OBs treated with TRAIL showed reduced cell viability, whereas differentiated OBs displayed TRAIL resistance. The OB sensitiveness to TRAIL was due to the up-regulation of DR5 and the down-regulation of DcR2. The main death receptor involved in TRAIL-reduced OB viability was DR5 as demonstrated by the rescue of cell viability observed in the presence of anti-DR5 neutralizing antibody. Besides the ratio of TRAIL receptors, the sensitivity of undifferentiated OBs to TRAIL-cytotoxic effect was also associated with low mRNA levels of intracellular anti-apoptotic proteins, such as cFLIP, the activation of caspase-8 and -3, as well as the DNA fragmentation. This study suggests that apoptotic effect exerted by TRAIL/TRAIL-receptor system on normal human OB is strictly dependent upon cell differentiation status.

Abstract
Bacteria and their products are potent inducers of bone destruction. While inflammatory damage during conditions such as osteomyelitis is associated with increased formation and activity of bone-resorbing osteoclasts, it is likely that bone loss also results from the elimination of the cells responsible for matrix deposition. Consistent with this notion, we have previously demonstrated that bone-forming osteoblasts undergo apoptosis following bacterial challenge and that this cell death is due, at least in part, to the actions of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). In the present study, we demonstrate that primary osteoblasts constitutively express death domain containing TRAIL receptors. Importantly, we show that cell surface expression of the death-inducing receptors DR4 and DR5 on murine and human osteoblasts is restricted to cells infected with the principle causative agents of osteomyelitis, Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella. In addition, we show that the robust constitutive production by osteoblasts of the decoy TRAIL receptor, OPG, is inhibited following bacterial infection. Finally, we report that while exogenous administration of TRAIL fails to activate apoptosis signaling pathways in uninfected osteoblasts, acute bacterial exposure sensitizes these cells to this ligand. Based upon these findings we suggest a model in which bacterially challenged osteoblasts express TRAIL while concomitantly decreasing the production of the decoy receptor OPG and upregulating cell surface death receptor expression. Such an increase in TRAIL bioavailability and induced sensitivity of infected osteoblasts to this ligand would result in apoptotic cell death of this bone-forming population, providing an additional mechanism underlying inflammatory bone loss during diseases such as osteomyelitis.

Abstract
Manifestations of bone disease-osteopenia, osteolytic lesions, and fractures-are the hallmark of multiple myeloma (MM) and occur clinically in the vast majority of patients. These abnormalities can have devastating clinical effects by increasing both the morbidity and mortality of patients. Bone disease is usually found when patients are diagnosed with active MM; however, recent data suggest that it is present in early myelomagenesis, including patients with myeloma precursor disease, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). The primary mechanisms of abnormal bone remodeling are increased osteoclastic activity, which occurs in close proximity to active myeloma cells, and decreased activity of the surrounding osteoblasts. Better understanding of the pathogenesis of bone disease in MM will allow us to enhance our current therapeutic options in the treatment of bone disease. In patients with active MM and at least one lytic lesion, intravenous bisphosphonates have been shown to decrease skeletal-related events and pain, improve performance status, and maintain quality of life. Emerging evidence suggests that intervention at earlier stages of disease may prevent skeletal-related events at time of progression, but there is no evidence that bisphosphonates in this setting change the natural history of the disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Myeloma bone disease (MBD) is the result of the increased activity of osteoclasts (OCs), which is not accompanied by a comparable increase of osteoblast (OB) function, thus leading to enhanced bone resorption. Osteoblasts can also regulate osteoclast activity through expression of cytokines, such as receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), which activates osteoclast differentiation, and osteoprotegerin (OPG), which inhibits RANKL by acting as a decoy receptor. MATERIAL AND METHODS Based on a series of 21 patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and human osteoblast cell line HFOB1.19, we provide evidence that the bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) of patients with MM exhibit normal phenotype, but showed reduced efficiency to differentiate into OBs as compared with normal controls. RESULTS In vitro assays showed that MM cells inhibited the potential of osteogenic differentiation of BMMSCs from healthy controls and rendered the OBs sensitive to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. There was no evidence of the formation of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase positive OCs. The osteogenic differentiation of HFOB1.19 was also inhibited in the presence of RPMI 8266 or XG7 MM cells, as confirmed by von Kossa and ALP staining. Osteoblast s induced from BMMSCs supported survival and proliferation of MM cells, especially when the MM cells were cultured in medium containing rhTRAIL and dexamethasone. Multiple myeloma cells proliferated and grew well in the presence of residual OBs. CONCLUSIONS Besides OCs, our results demonstrated that OBs and MM cells were dependent upon each other and made a microenvironment suitable for MM cells.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma cells are reminiscent of hemopoietic stem cells in their strict dependence upon the bone marrow microenvironment. However, from all other points of view, multiple myeloma cells differ markedly from stem cells. The cells possess a mature phenotype and secrete antibodies, and have thus made the whole journey to maturity, while maintaining a tumor phenotype. Not much credence was given to the possibility that the bulk of plasma-like multiple myeloma tumor cells is generated from tumor-initiating cells. Although interleukin-6 is a major contributor to the formation of the tumor’s microenvironment in multiple myeloma, it is not a major factor within hemopoietic stem cell niches. The bone marrow niche for myeloma cells includes the activity of inflammatory cytokines released through osteoclastogenesis. These permit maintenance of myeloma cells within the bone marrow. In contrast, osteoclastogenesis constitutes a signal that drives hemopoietic stem cells away from their bone marrow niches. The properties of the bone marrow microenvironment, which supports myeloma cell maintenance and proliferation, is therefore markedly different from the characteristics of the hemopoietic stem cell niche. Thus, multiple myeloma presents an example of a hemopoietic tumor microenvironment that does not resemble the corresponding stem cell renewal niche.

Abstract
Osteolytic lesions are a hallmark of multiple myeloma. They are due to the hyperactivity of bone resorbing osteoclasts and hypoactivity of bone forming osteoblasts, in response to neighbouring myeloma cells. This study identified a structure that deeply affects this response, because of its impact on the physical organisation of the myeloma cell microenvironment. The proximity between myeloma cells and osteoclasts or osteoblasts was shown to be conditioned by the recently discovered layer of flat cells that separates the osteoclasts and osteoblasts from the bone marrow, by forming a canopy over bone remodelling compartment (BRC). These canopies are frequently disrupted in myeloma, and this disruption correlates with increased proximity and density of myeloma cells. In vitro evidence indicates that this disruption may be due to direct contact between myeloma and BRC canopy cells. Importantly, this disruption and increased proximity and density of myeloma cells coincides with key myeloma-induced bone events, such as osteolytic lesions, impaired bone formation despite increased bone resorption, and fusion of myeloma cells with osteoclasts thereby forming myeloma-osteoclast hybrid cells. These findings strongly support a critical role of BRC canopies in myeloma-induced bone disease. BRC canopies could therefore be considered as a new therapeutic target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bronchial smooth muscle cells (SMC) proliferate, express adhesion molecules, secrete cytokines and thus efficiently contribute to the pathogenesis of asthma. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to investigate whether, and by which mechanism, T cells and eosinophils can cause death of airway SMC. METHODS The T cell- and eosinophil-induced cell death was analysed in primary human bronchial SMC cultures as well as in bronchial biopsy specimens from non-asthmatic and asthmatic individuals. RESULTS Bronchial SMC death showed characteristic morphological features of apoptosis in 3-6 days cultures with inflammatory cytokines (IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha), soluble death ligands [sFasL, TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)] and activated T-helper type 1 (Th1) and Th2 cell supernatants. The recombinant eosinophil cationic protein induced SMC necrosis within 1 h. Resting SMC expressed the death receptors TNFR1, TNFR2, Fas, TRAILR1, TRAILR2 and membrane FasL as a death-inducing ligand. IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha up-regulated TNFR1, TNFR2, Fas and membrane FasL on SMC. TNF-alpha up-regulated TRAILR1 and TRAILR2; sFasL up-regulated TNFR2. The intracellular caspase-3 activation in SMC was significantly increased by IFN-gamma, sFasL, TRAIL, Th1 and Th2 cell supernatants. Increased expression of TRAIL in asthmatics, but not in non-asthmatic individuals was demonstrated in situ. The apoptosis receptors TRAILR1 and TRAILR2 were expressed in SMC and epithelial cells both in healthy and asthmatic biopsies. Prominent apoptosis of SMC was observed in fatal asthma, but not intermittent asthma biopsies. CONCLUSION The demonstration of bronchial SMC death both by apoptosis and necrosis indicates the essential role of T cells and eosinophils in the bronchial tissue injury particularly in the severe asthma.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell malignancy characterized by a high capacity to induce osteolytic bone lesions. MM patients with osteolytic bone lesions have lower numbers of osteoblasts and decreased bone formation, which plays a critical role in the bone-destructive process. Although the mechanism of estrogen action on bone cells and myeloma cells has been widely investigated, estrogen action on bone cells in MM is unknown. In this study, the effects of the gonadal hormone 17beta-estradiol on cell growth, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, mineralization capacity, and RANKL/OPG ratios in primary rat osteoblasts cultured with MM cell conditioned medium (CM) or co-cultured with RPMI8226 cells were investigated. Treatments of 10(-2) to 10 nM 17beta-estradiol reversed inhibition of proliferation and ALP activity of osteoblasts by myeloma cells in a dose-dependent manner, and 10(-2) to 1 nM 17beta-estradiol reversed inhibition of the mineralization capacity of osteoblasts by myeloma cells. In co-culture experiments with primary rat osteoblasts and myeloma cells, treatments of 10(-2) to 10 nM 17beta-estradiol down-regulated transcription and secretion of RANKL and up-regulated transcription and secretion of OPG in the osteoblasts, reversing the effects of co-cultured myeloma cells. These findings suggest that 17beta-estradiol may temper the inhibitory effects of myeloma cells on osteoblasts and improve RANKL/OPG balance, providing a new agent for treatment of bone disease in myeloma.

Abstract
Adult multipotent stromal cells (MSCs), also known as mesenchymal stem cells, represent an important source of cells for the repair of a number of damaged tissues. Both bone marrow (BM)-derived and amniotic MSCs expressed detectable surface levels of two (tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor 2 [TRAIL-R2] and TRAIL-R4) of four transmembrane TRAIL receptors. Although the best-characterized activity of TRAIL-R2 is the transduction of apoptotic signals, neither recombinant TRAIL (rTRAIL) nor infection with an adenovirus-expressing TRAIL induced cytotoxic effects on MSCs. Moreover, whereas rTRAIL did not affect proliferation or differentiation of MSCs along the osteogenic and adipogenic lineages, it significantly promoted the migration of human MSCs in range of concentrations comparable to that of soluble TRAIL in human plasma (100 pg/ml). Since rTRAIL induced the rapid phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) in MSC cultures and pretreatment with pharmacological inhibitors of the ERK1/2 pathway efficiently counteracted the rTRAIL-induced human MSC migration, these data indicate that ERK1/2 is involved in mediating the ability of rTRAIL to stimulate MSC migration. Taking into consideration that the soluble factors able to induce MSC migration have not been extensively characterized, our current data indicate that the TRAIL/TRAIL-R system might play an important role in the biology of MSCs. Disclosure of potential conflicts of interest is found at the end of this article.

Abstract
It has become clear that complex interactions underlie the relationship between the skeletal and immune systems. This is particularly true for the development of immune cells in the bone marrow as well as the functions of bone cells in skeletal homeostasis and pathologies. Because these two disciplines developed independently, investigators with an interest in either often do not fully appreciate the influence of the other system on the functions of the tissue that they are studying. With these issues in mind, this review will focus on several key areas that are mediated by crosstalk between the bone and immune systems. A more complete appreciation of the interactions between immune and bone cells should lead to better therapeutic strategies for diseases that affect either or both systems.

Abstract
Bone and the immune system are both complex tissues that respectively regulate the skeleton and the body's response to invading pathogens. It has now become clear that these organ systems often interact in their function. This is particularly true for the development of immune cells in the bone marrow and for the function of bone cells in health and disease. Because these two disciplines developed independently, investigators in each don't always fully appreciate the significance that the other system has on the function of the tissue they are studying. This review is meant to provide a broad overview of the many ways that bone and immune cells interact so that a better understanding of the role that each plays in the development and function of the other can develop. It is hoped that an appreciation of the interactions of these two organ systems will lead to better therapeutics for diseases that affect either or both.

Abstract
Bone destruction is the hallmark of multiple myeloma (MM) due to the high capacity of malignant plasma cells to induce a severe imbalance of bone remodeling. Growing evidences suggest that MM cell interactions with bone marrow (BM) osteoblast have a critical role in the pathophysiology of osteolytic lesions. Indeed histomorphometric studies have demonstrated that MM patients with osteolytic bone lesions have lower numbers of osteoblasts and decreased bone formation together with osteoclast activation. Recently, the biological mechanisms involved in the osteoblast inhibition induced by MM cells have begun to be elucidated, underlying the main role of the block of osteoblast differentiation in the development of bone lesions. In this article, we summarize the main mechanisms regulating MM cell and osteoblast interactions.

Abstract
The number and activity of osteoclasts (OCs) are critical for maintaining normal bone turnover. The number is determined by the rates of cell differentiation and death. TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), a member of the TNF superfamily, induces apoptosis by interacting with its death receptors, (DR4, DR5). However, its activity can be modulated by two decoy receptors, (DcR1 and DcR2). In this paper we show that TRAIL treatment causes reduced OC viability as well as an increased apoptotic OC number. Loss of nuclei integrity and derangement of the actin microfilament were also induced by TRAIL in OCs. Moreover, we demonstrated the expression of all TRAIL receptors in both precursors and differentiated OCs, and the upregulation of DR5 during OC differentiation. Interestingly, DcR2 was upregulated in the early stage of osteoclastogenesis and downregulated at the end of the differentiation process. We showed that DR5, upregulated by TRAIL, could be the mediator of TRAIL-induced OC apoptosis, since the addition of anti-DR5 neutralizing antibodies restores the OC viability previously reduced by TRAIL. Furthermore, the intracellular pathway induced by TRAIL in OCs involves caspase-8 and Bid activation. In conclusion, our data highlight an important role for the TRAIL/TRAIL receptor system in the regulation of OC apoptosis.

Abstract
The growth and survival of myeloma cells is critically regulated by cells of the bone marrow microenvironment, including osteoblasts. Tumour necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a potent inducer of myeloma cell apoptosis, however, this antimyeloma activity is inhibited by osteoprotegerin (OPG) released from osteoblasts. Therefore, we hypothesized that specific agonists of TRAIL death receptors would not be inhibited by OPG released from osteoblasts and thus may represent a novel therapeutic approach in multiple myeloma. In the present study, TRAIL-induced apoptosis was demonstrated to be mediated through both DR4 and DR5. Specific agonist antibodies to DR4 or DR5 dose-dependently induced myeloma cell apoptosis, which was not prevented by OPG or by medium conditioned by osteoblasts. Co-culture of myeloma cells with osteoblasts protected against TRAIL-induced apoptosis of myeloma cells, and this protective effect was due to OPG. In contrast, the co-culture of myeloma cells with osteoblasts had no protective effect on apoptosis induced by specific agonists of DR4 or DR5. TRAIL has been proposed as a potential antitumour therapy, but within the bone marrow microenvironment OPG may interfere with the action of TRAIL. Specific agonists of TRAIL death receptors would not be subject to this inhibition and thus may provide an alternative specific antimyeloma therapy.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a B-cell malignancy characterized by the uncontrolled growth of plasma cells in the bone marrow and the development of osteolytic bone disease. Myeloma cells express the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand (RANKL), induce RANKL expression in the bone marrow, and down-regulate expression of the decoy receptor osteoprotegerin, thereby promoting bone resorption. Targeting this system in myeloma has clear therapeutic potential. However, osteoprotegerin also binds tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) and prevents TRAIL-induced apoptosis of myeloma cells. Whether or not osteoprotegerin can bind TRAIL and prevent apoptosis in vivo and the relative importance of osteoprotegerin binding to TRAIL and RANKL are unclear. In the present study, we have investigated the ability of an osteoprotegerin-like peptidomimetic (OP3-4), designed to block the RANKL/RANK interaction, to inhibit osteoclastic bone resorption and TRAIL-induced apoptosis in vitro and myeloma bone disease in vivo. OP3-4 inhibited osteoclast formation (P < 0.01) and bone resorption (P < 0.01) in vitro. However, OP3-4 had no effect on TRAIL-induced apoptosis of RPMI 8226 myeloma cells. Treatment of 5T2MM myeloma-bearing mice with OP3-4 decreased osteoclast number and the proportion of bone surface covered by osteoclasts (P < 0.05). Treatment also prevented the tumor-induced decrease in cancellous bone area and the development of osteolytic lesions (P < 0.05). OP3-4 also reduced tumor burden when compared with the control (P < 0.05). These data suggest that OP3-4 and the selective inhibition of RANKL, but not TRAIL activity, are effective in preventing myeloma bone disease and offer a novel therapeutic approach to treating this aspect of myeloma.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell malignancy characterized by a high capacity to induce osteolytic bone lesions. Bone destruction in MM results from increased osteoclast formation and activity that occur in close proximity to myeloma cells. However, histomorphometric studies have demonstrated that MM patients with osteolytic bone lesions have lower numbers of osteoblasts and decreased bone formation. This impaired bone formation plays a critical role in the bone-destructive process. Recently, the biologic mechanisms involved in the osteoblast inhibition induced by MM cells have begun to be elucidated. In this article, the pathophysiology underlying osteoblast inhibition in MM is reviewed.
