Abstract
Netrin-1 (NTN-1) plays a vital role in the progress of nervous system development and inflammatory diseases. However, the role and underlying mechanism of NTN-1 in inflammatory pain (IP) are unclear. BV2 microglia were treated with LPS to mimic the cell status under IP. Adeno-associated virus carrying the NTN-1 gene (AAV-NTN-1) was used to overexpress NTN-1. Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA)-induced mouse was recruited as an in vivo model. MTT and commercial kits were utilized to evaluate cell viability and cell death of BV2 cells. The mRNA expressions and secretions of cytokines were measured using the ELISA method. Also, the pyroptosis and activation of BV2 cells were investigated based on western blotting. To verify the role of Rac1/NF-kappaB signaling, isochamaejasmin (ISO) and AAV-Rac1 were presented. The results showed that NTN-1 expression was decreased in LPS-treated BV2 microglia and spinal cord tissues of CFA-injected mice. Overexpressing NTN-1 dramatically reversed cell viability and decreased cell death rate of BV2 microglia under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, while the level of pyroptosis was inhibited. Besides, AAV-NTN-1 rescued the activation of microglia and inflammatory injury induced by LPS, decreasing IBA-1 expression, as well as iNOS, IL-1beta and IL-6 secretions. Meanwhile AAV-NTN-1 promoted the anti-inflammation response, including increases in Arg-1, IL-4 and IL-10 levels. In addition, the LPS-induced activation of Rac1/NF-kappaB signaling was depressed by NTN-1 overexpression. The same results were verified in a CFA-induced mouse model. In conclusion, NTN-1 alleviated IP by suppressing pyroptosis and promoting M2 type activation of microglia via inhibiting Rac1/NF-?B signaling, suggesting the protective role of NTN-1 in IP. Keywords: Netrin-1, Inflammatory pain, Pyroptosis, Microglia M2 activation, Rac1/NF-kappaB.

Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1367806. [PMID: 38628640 PMCID: PMC11019308 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1367806] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Cinnamaldehyde (CMD) is a major functional component of Cinnamomum verum and has shown treatment effects against diverse bone diseases. This study aimed to assess the anti-diabetic osteoporosis (DOP) potential of diabetes mellitus (DM) and to explore the underlying mechanism driving the activity of CMD. Methods: A DOP model was induced via an intraperitoneal injection of streptozocin (STZ) into Sprague-Dawley rats, and then two different doses of CMD were administered to the rats. The effects of CMD on the strength, remodeling activity, and histological structure of the bones were assessed. Changes in the netrin-1 related pathways also were detected to elucidate the mechanism of the anti-DOP activity by CMD. Results: CMD had no significant effect on the body weight or blood glucose level of the model rats. However, the data showed that CMD improved the bone strength and bone remodeling activity as well as attenuating the bone structure destruction in the DOP rats in a dose-dependent manner. The expression of netrin-1, DCC, UNC5B, RANKL, and OPG was suppressed, while the expression of TGF-β1, cathepsin K, TRAP, and RANK was induced by the STZ injection. CMD administration restored the expression of all of these indicators at both the mRNA and protein levels, indicating that the osteoclast activity was inhibited by CMD. Conclusion: The current study demonstrated that CMD effectively attenuated bone impairments associated with DM in a STZ-induced DOP rat model, and the anti-DOP effects of CMD were associated with the modulation of netrin-1/DCC/UNC5B signal transduction.

Abstract
Purpose We aimed to explore the expressions of peptidoglycan recognition protein 1 (PGLYRP-1), neuron towards axon guidance factor-1 (Netrin-1) and miR-142-3p and their correlations in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Patients and Methods Sixty patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated from January 2022 to January 2023 were enrolled as a rheumatoid group, 30 patients with osteoarthritis were selected as an osteoarthritis group, and 30 healthy volunteers were recruited as a control group. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Western blotting and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction were employed to measure the expressions of PGLYRP-1, Netrin-1 and miR-142-3p, respectively. The correlations among PGLYRP-1, Netrin-1 and miR-142-3p expressions in patients with rheumatoid arthritis were analyzed. Results In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, PGLYRP-1 expression was negatively correlated with Netrin-1 expression (r=-0.570, P=0.001) but positively correlated with miR-142-3p expression (r=0.599, P=0.001), and a negative correlation was found between Netrin-1 and miR-142-3p expressions (r=-0.468, P=0.001). The combined detection of PGLYRP-1, Netrin-1 and miR-142-3p was more sensitive and less specific for predicting the prognosis of patients with rheumatoid arthritis than the measurement of a single marker (P<0.05). Conclusion The combined measurement of PGLYRP-1, Netrin-1 and miR-142-3p has a predictive value for the prognosis of patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Atopic Polygenic Risk Score Is Associated with Paradoxical Eczema Developing in Patients with Psoriasis Treated with Biologics. J Invest Dermatol 2023; 143:1470-1478.e1. [PMID: 36804406 DOI: 10.1016/j.jid.2023.01.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 01/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023]
Abstract
Biologic therapies for psoriasis can cause paradoxical eczema. The role of genetic factors in its pathogenesis is unknown. To identify risk variants, we conducted a GWAS of 3,212 patients with psoriasis, of whom 88 developed paradoxical eczema. Two lead SNPs reached genome-wide significance (P ≤ 5 × 10-8) for association with paradoxical eczema: rs192705221 (near UNC5B, P = 9.52 × 10-10) and rs72925168 (within SLC1A2, P = 1.66 × 10-9). Genome-wide significant SNPs from published GWAS were used to generate polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for atopic eczema, general atopic disease, or a combination, which were tested for association with paradoxical eczema. Improvement over a clinical risk model was assessed by the area under the curve. All three atopy polygenic risk scores were associated with paradoxical eczema (P < 0.05); polygenic risk score for a combination of atopic eczema and general atopic disease had the strongest association (OR = 1.83, 95% CI = 1.17-2.84, P = 0.0078). Including atopic polygenic risk scores in the multivariable model, which included age, sex, atopic background, and psoriatic arthritis history, increased the area under the curve from 0.671 to 0.681-0.686. Atopic genetic burden is associated with paradoxical eczema occurring in biologic-treated patients with psoriasis, indicating shared underlying mechanisms. Incorporating genetic risk may improve treatment outcome prediction models for psoriasis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Netrin-1 expression in articular cartilage is correlated with osteoarthritic changes. We aimed to investigate the contribution of Netrin-1 secreted by human osteoarthritic articular chondrocytes to angiogenesis process in vitro. DESIGN Human articular chondrocytes were extracted from non-osteoarthritic (n = 10) and osteoarthritic (n = 22) joints obtained from surgical specimens and incubated for 24 hours. Medium conditioned by non-osteoarthritic and osteoarthritic articular chondrocytes were collected. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were treated with control and conditioned medium and assessed using assays for cell adherence, migration, and tube formation. Netrin-1 expression and secretion was compared between non-osteoarthritic and osteoarthritic chondrocytes by qPCR, Western blot, and ELISA. The role of chondrocyte-secreted Netrin-1 on HUVEC functions was assessed by immunological neutralization using an anti-Netrin-1 monoclonal antibody. RESULTS As compared with medium conditioned by non-osteoarthritic chondrocytes, medium conditioned by osteoarthritic chondrocytes permitted tube formation by HUVEC. Both non-osteoarthritic and osteoarthritic chondrocytes expressed Netrin-1 at the RNA and protein levels. At the RNA level, Netrin-1 expression did not differ between non-osteoarthritic and osteoarthritic chondrocytes. At the protein level, Netrin-1 appeared as a full protein of 64 kDa in non-osteoarthritic chondrocytes and as two cleaved proteins of 55 kDa and 64 kDa in osteoarthritic chondrocytes. Immunological neutralization of endogenous Netrin-1 reduced the pro-angiogenic and pro-inflammatory transcriptional profile of HUVEC treated with the medium conditioned by osteoarthritic chondrocytes, as well as their capacities to form tubes. CONCLUSIONS Medium conditioned by osteoarthritic chondrocytes permits tube formation by HUVEC in vitro. This permissive effect is mediated by Netrin-1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Netrin-1 displays protumoral properties, though the pathological contexts and processes involved in its induction remain understudied. The liver is a major model of inflammation-associated cancer development, leading to HCC. APPROACH AND RESULTS A panel of cell biology and biochemistry approaches (reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction, reporter assays, run-on, polysome fractionation, cross linking immunoprecipitation, filter binding assay, subcellular fractionation, western blotting, immunoprecipitation, stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture) on in vitro-grown primary hepatocytes, human liver cell lines, mouse samples and clinical samples was used. We identify netrin-1 as a hepatic inflammation-inducible factor and decipher its mode of activation through an exhaustive eliminative approach. We show that netrin-1 up-regulation relies on a hitherto unknown mode of induction, namely its exclusive translational activation. This process includes the transfer of NTN1 (netrin-1) mRNA to the endoplasmic reticulum and the direct interaction between the Staufen-1 protein and this transcript as well as netrin-1 mobilization from its cell-bound form. Finally, we explore the impact of a phase 2 clinical trial-tested humanized anti-netrin-1 antibody (NP137) in two distinct, toll-like receptor (TLR) 2/TLR3/TLR6-dependent, hepatic inflammatory mouse settings. We observe a clear anti-inflammatory activity indicating the proinflammatory impact of netrin-1 on several chemokines and Ly6C+ macrophages. CONCLUSIONS These results identify netrin-1 as an inflammation-inducible factor in the liver through an atypical mechanism as well as its contribution to hepatic inflammation.

Abstract
During hypoxia or inflammation, extracellular adenosine levels are elevated. Studies using pharmacologic approaches or genetic animal models pertinent to extracellular adenosine signaling implicate this pathway in attenuating hypoxia-associated inflammation. There are four distinct adenosine receptors. Of these, it is not surprising that the Adora2b adenosine receptor functions as an endogenous feedback loop to control hypoxia-associated inflammation. First, Adora2b activation requires higher adenosine concentrations compared to other adenosine receptors, similar to those achieved during hypoxic inflammation. Second, Adora2b is transcriptionally induced during hypoxia or inflammation by hypoxia-inducible transcription factor HIF1A. Studies seeking an alternative adenosine receptor activation mechanism have linked netrin-1 with Adora2b. Netrin-1 was originally discovered as a neuronal guidance molecule but also functions as an immune-modulatory signaling molecule. Similar to Adora2b, netrin-1 is induced by HIF1A, and has been shown to enhance Adora2b signaling. Studies of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), intestinal inflammation, myocardial or hepatic ischemia and reperfusion implicate the netrin-Adora2b link in tissue protection. In this review, we will discuss the potential molecular linkage between netrin-1 and Adora2b, and explore studies demonstrating interactions between netrin-1 and Adora2b in attenuating tissue inflammation.

Spinal TRPA1 Contributes to the Mechanical Hypersensitivity Effect Induced by Netrin-1. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23126629. [PMID: 35743067 PMCID: PMC9224357 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23126629] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2022] [Revised: 06/10/2022] [Accepted: 06/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Netrin-1, a chemoattractant expressed by floor plate cells, and one of its receptors (deleted in colorectal cancer) has been associated with pronociceptive actions in a number of pain conditions. Here, we addressed the question of whether spinal TRPC4/C5 or TRPA1 are among the downstream receptors contributing to pronociceptive actions induced by netrin-1. The experiments were performed on rats using a chronic intrathecal catheter for administration of netrin-1 and antagonists of TRPC4/C5 or TRPA1. Pain sensitivity was assessed behaviorally by using mechanical and heat stimuli. Effect on the discharge rate of rostral ventromedial medullary (RVM) pain control neurons was studied in lightly anesthetized animals. Netrin-1, in a dose-related fashion, induced mechanical hypersensitivity that lasted up to three weeks. Netrin-1 had no effect on heat nociception. Mechanical hypersensitivity induced by netrin-1 was attenuated by TRPA1 antagonist Chembridge-5861528 and by the control analgesic compound pregabalin both during the early (first two days) and late (third week) phase of hypersensitivity. TRPC4/C5 antagonist ML-204 had a weak antihypersensitivity effect that was only in the early phase, whereas TRPC4/C5 antagonist HC-070 had no effect on hypersensitivity induced by netrin-1. The discharge rate in pronociceptive ON-like RVM neurons was increased by netrin-1 during the late but not acute phase, whereas netrin-1 had no effect on the discharge rate of antinociceptive RVM OFF-like neurons. The results suggest that spinal TRPA1 receptors and pronociceptive RVM ON-like neurons are involved in the maintenance of submodality-selective pronociceptive actions induced by netrin-1 in the spinal cord.

Abstract
Objectives: This study aims to define serum levels of netrin-1 and netrin receptors in patients with fibromyalgia (FM) and osteoarthritis (OA).
Patients and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with a total of 150 female participants (mean age: 47.2±16.1 years; range, 18 to 89 years) at Fırat University between June 2016 and December 2016. The participants were evaluated in three groups: the FM group with 50 patients, the OA group with 50 patients, and the control group, which included 50 healthy volunteers. Netrin-1, netrin receptors (DCC, UNC5B, and UNC5D), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, and IL-17 levels were analyzed by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay from the serum samples of the participants.
Results: The level of serum netrin-1 was significantly lower in the FM group than in the control and OA groups (p<0.01 and p<0.001, respectively). However, the difference between patients with OA and healthy controls in terms of netrin-1 was not statistically significant (p>0.05). In addition, serum levels of netrin receptors and cytokines in the FM group were similar to the control group (p>0.05). However, serum DCC, UNC5D, IL-6, and IL-10 levels were higher in the OA group compared to the control group (p<0.001, p<0.05, p<0.01, and p<0.001, respectively).
Conclusion: Serum netrin-1 level is suppressed in FM, which suggests that netrin-1 is influential in FM pathogenesis.

Blocking chondrocyte hypertrophy in conditional Evc knockout mice does not modify cartilage damage in osteoarthritis. FASEB J 2022; 36:e22258.

Abstract
Chondrocytes in osteoarthritic (OA) cartilage acquire a hypertrophic-like phenotype, where Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is pivotal. Hh overexpression causes OA-like cartilage lesions, whereas its downregulation prevents articular destruction in mouse models. Mutations in EVC and EVC2 genes disrupt Hh signaling, and are responsible for the Ellis-van Creveld syndrome skeletal dysplasia. Since Ellis-van Creveld syndrome protein (Evc) deletion is expected to hamper Hh target gene expression we hypothesized that it would also prevent OA progression avoiding chondrocyte hypertrophy. Our aim was to study Evc as a new therapeutic target in OA, and whether Evc deletion restrains chondrocyte hypertrophy and prevents joint damage in an Evc tamoxifen induced knockout (EvccKO ) model of OA. For this purpose, OA was induced by surgical knee destabilization in wild-type (WT) and EvccKO adult mice, and healthy WT mice were used as controls (n = 10 knees/group). Hypertrophic markers and Hh genes were measured by qRT-PCR, and metalloproteinases (MMP) levels assessed by western blot. Human OA chondrocytes and cartilage samples were obtained from patients undergoing knee joint replacement surgery. Cyclopamine (CPA) was used for Hh pharmacological inhibition and IL-1 beta as an inflammatory insult. Our results showed that tamoxifen induced inactivation of Evc inhibited Hh overexpression and partially prevented chondrocyte hypertrophy during OA, although it did not ameliorate cartilage damage in DMM-EvccKO mice. Hh pathway inhibition did not modify the expression of proinflammatory mediators induced by IL-1 beta in human OA chondrocytes in culture. We found that hypertrophic-IHH-and inflammatory-COX-2-markers co-localized in OA cartilage samples. We concluded that tamoxifen induced inactivation of Evc partially prevented chondrocyte hypertrophy in DMM-EvccKO mice, but it did not ameliorate cartilage damage. Overall, our results suggest that chondrocyte hypertrophy per se is not a pathogenic event in the progression of OA.

Abstract
Netrins belong to the family of laminin-like secreted proteins, which guide axonal migration and neuronal growth in the developing central nervous system. Over the last 20 years, it has been established that netrin-1 acts as a chemoattractive or chemorepulsive cue in diverse biological processes far beyond neuronal development. Netrin-1 has been shown to play a central role in cell adhesion, cell migration, proliferation, and cell survival in neuronal and non-neuronal tissue. In this context, netrin-1 was found to orchestrate organogenesis, angiogenesis, tumorigenesis, and inflammation. In inflammation, as in neuronal development, netrin-1 plays a dichotomous role directing the migration of leukocytes, especially monocytes in the inflamed tissue. Monocyte-derived macrophages have long been known for a similar dual role in inflammation. In response to pathogen-induced acute injury, monocytes are rapidly recruited to damaged tissue as the first line of immune defense to phagocyte pathogens, present antigens to initiate the adaptive immune response, and promote wound healing in the resolution phase. On the other hand, dysregulated macrophages with impaired phagocytosis and egress capacity accumulate in chronic inflammation sites and foster the maintenance-and even the progression-of chronic inflammation. In this review article, we will highlight the dichotomous roles of netrin-1 and its impact on acute and chronic inflammation.

Abstract
Rationale: Therapeutic efforts to decrease atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk have focused largely on reducing atherogenic lipoproteins, yet lipid-lowering therapies alone are insufficient to fully regress plaque burden. We postulate that arterial repair requires resolution of a maladaptive immune response and that targeting factors that hinder inflammation resolution will facilitate plaque regression. Objective: The guidance molecule Ntn1 (netrin-1) is secreted by macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques, where it sustains inflammation by enhancing macrophage survival and blocking macrophage emigration. We tested whether silencing Ntn1 in advanced atherosclerosis could resolve arterial inflammation and regress plaques. Methods and Results: To temporally silence Ntn1 in myeloid cells, we generated genetically modified mice in which Ntn1 could be selectively deleted in monocytes and macrophages using a tamoxifen-induced CX3CR1-driven cre recombinase (Ntn1fl/flCx3cr1creERT2+) and littermate control mice (Ntn1fl/flCx3cr1WT). Mice were fed Western diet in the setting of hepatic PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) overexpression to render them atherosclerotic and then treated with tamoxifen to initiate deletion of myeloid Ntn1 (MøΔNtn1) or not in controls (MøWT). Morphometric analyses performed 4 weeks later showed that myeloid Ntn1 silencing reduced plaque burden in the aorta (−50%) and plaque complexity in the aortic root. Monocyte-macrophage tracing experiments revealed lower monocyte recruitment, macrophage retention, and proliferation in MøΔNtn1 compared with MøWT plaques, indicating a restructuring of monocyte-macrophage dynamics in the artery wall upon Ntn1 silencing. Single-cell RNA sequencing of aortic immune cells before and after Ntn1 silencing revealed upregulation of gene pathways involved in macrophage phagocytosis and migration, including the Ccr7 chemokine receptor signaling pathway required for macrophage emigration from plaques and atherosclerosis regression. Additionally, plaques from MøΔNtn1 mice showed hallmarks of inflammation resolution, including higher levels of proresolving macrophages, IL (interleukin)-10, and efferocytosis, as compared to plaques from MøWT mice. Conclusion: Our data show that targeting Ntn1 in advanced atherosclerosis ameliorates atherosclerotic inflammation and promotes plaque regression.

Abstract
Sepsis and sepsis‐associated lung inflammation significantly contribute to the morbidity and mortality of critical illness. Here, we examined the hypothesis that neuronal guidance proteins could orchestrate inflammatory events during endotoxin‐induced lung injury. Through a targeted array, we identified netrin‐1 as the top upregulated neuronal guidance protein in macrophages treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Furthermore, we found that netrin‐1 is highly enriched in infiltrating myeloid cells, particularly in macrophages during LPS‐induced lung injury. Transcriptional studies implicate hypoxia‐inducible factor HIF‐1α in the transcriptional induction of netrin‐1 during LPS treatment. Subsequently, the deletion of netrin‐1 in the myeloid compartment (Ntn1loxp/loxp LysM Cre) resulted in exaggerated mortality and lung inflammation. Surprisingly, further studies revealed enhanced natural killer cells (NK cells) infiltration in Ntn1loxp/loxp LysM Cre mice, and neutralization of NK cell chemoattractant chemokine (C‐C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) reversed the exaggerated lung inflammation. Together, these studies provide functional insight into myeloid cell‐derived netrin‐1 in controlling lung inflammation through the modulation of CCL2‐dependent infiltration of NK cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment failure in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is common. We hypothesize that DNA methylation differs between patients by treatment response to topical steroids (oral viscous budesonide), thus offering the potential to inform targeting therapies. OBJECTIVE We sought to identify differentially methylated sites and affiliated genes in pre-treatment oesophageal cells between responders and non-responders and test for accelerated epigenetic ageing in oesophageal cells of EoE patients. METHODS DNA was extracted from prospectively collected and biobanked oesophageal biopsies from 36 Caucasian treatment naïve EoE patients at diagnosis. Methylation assays were completed using the Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip. Normalized β values for each CpG site were tested (t test) for differential methylation. Further, 353 CpG probes were used to estimate epigenetic age for each patient and a linear regression model tested whether chronologic age and epigenetic age differed. Epigenetic age results were confirmed in an independent cohort of healthy controls. RESULTS Eighteen CpG sites were differentially methylated by treatment response (P < .00001). The mean epigenetic age and chronological age were 56.1 ± 11.1 and 36.7 ± 12.3 years, a mean age difference of 19.3 ± 5.2 years (P < .0001); accelerated ageing was not observed in the oesophageal cells of healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE EoE patients that respond versus do not respond to treatment have differences in their methylation profile, including enrichment of genes in pathways consistent with cellular injury and repair due to environmental stress and cell adhesion and barrier integrity. EoE also appears to accelerate cellular ageing. Whether treatment can arrest or reverse accelerated epigenetic ageing and the implications for long-term disease progression is important areas for future research.

[PMID: 31769036 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12712] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2019] [Revised: 09/19/2019] [Accepted: 10/27/2019] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this present study was to evaluate the levels of Netrin-1 and Unc5b in periodontal health and disease. BACKGROUND Netrin-1, acting via its receptor UNC5b, regulates the inflammatory response and takes apart in bone destructive diseases. METHODS Samples of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), whole saliva, and serum were taken from systemically healthy, nonsmoking 20 periodontitis , 20 gingivitis patients, and 20 periodontally healthy subjects at baseline and 4 weeks after nonsurgical periodontal treatment (NSPT). Whole-mouth and site-specific clinical periodontal parameters were recorded. Netrin-1 and Unc5b levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Data were analyzed by nonparametric tests. RESULTS Total amount of Netrin-1 in GCF was significantly higher in periodontitis than the others, and the levels were significantly reduced after NSPT. Salivary and serum concentrations of Netrin-1 were significantly different among the study groups (P = .000), and NSPT significantly increased the concentration levels of both salivary and serum Netrin-1 (P < .05). Healthy subjects had significantly lower GCF (P = .001) and conversely, higher salivary and serum levels of Unc5b than the other groups (P = .002). The GCF levels of Unc5b were significantly reduced (P < .01), and conversely, serum concentrations were significantly increased after NSPT (P < .05). GCF Netrin-1 and Unc5b total amounts were positively correlated with clinical parameters (P < .01 and P < .05) whereas salivary Netrin-1 and Unc5b concentrations were negatively correlated with clinical parameters (P < .01 and P < .05). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study indicate that Netrin-1 and its receptor Unc5b may have essential roles in periodontal inflammation and those can be assumed as useful therapeutic agent to control inflammation and periodontal breakdown.

Abstract
Larval therapy with Lucilia sericata is a promising strategy in wound healing. Axon guidance molecules play vital roles during the development of the nervous system and also regulate the capacity of neuronal restoration in wound healing. Netrin-1, one of the proteins that larvae secrete, plays a useful role in cell migration and nerve tissue regeneration. The UNC-5 receptor combines with a netrin-1 signal and transmits the signal from one side of the membrane to the other side, initiating a change in cell activity. In the current study, we identified the full length of the UNC-5 receptor mRNA in L. sericata using different sets of primers, including exon junction and specific region primers. The coding sequence (CDS) of the UNC-5 receptor was sequenced and identified to include 633 base-pair nucleic acids, and BLAST analysis on its nucleotide sequence revealed 96% identity with the Lucilia cuprina netrin-1 UNC-5 receptor. The protein residue included 210 amino acids (aa) and coded for a protein with 24 kD weight. This gene lacked the signal peptide. Furthermore, the UPA domain is conserved in UNC-5. It lied at the interval of 26–131 aa. We identified the CDS of netrin-1UNC-5 receptor in L. sericata. It could be applied to research activities implementing a new essential component design in wound healing.

Tenofovir Causes Bone Loss via Decreased Bone Formation and Increased Bone Resorption, Which Can Be Counteracted by Dipyridamole in Mice. J Bone Miner Res 2019; 34:923-938.

Abstract
Osteopenia and fragility fractures have been associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Tenofovir, a common antiviral in HIV treatment, also leads to increases in bone catabolism markers and decreased BMD in children and young adults. In murine models and human cell lines, tenofovir inhibits adenosine triphosphate release and decreases extracellular adenosine levels. Adenosine and adenosine A2A receptor inhibit osteoclast formation, and increase local adenosine concentration with dipyridamole, an agent that blocks adenosine cellular uptake and stimulates new bone formation as well as bone morphogenic protein 2. We hypothesized that tenofovir regulates bone resorption by diminishing endogenous adenosine levels and questioned whether dipyridamole may be a useful treatment to counteract the deleterous bone effects of tenofovir. Primary murine osteoclasts were induced by M-CSF/RANKL, and the number of TRAP-positive-cells was studied after challenge with tenofovir alone or in combination with dipyridamole. Differentiation markers were studied by RT-PCR and MAPK/NFkB expression by Western blot. Male C57Bl/6 mice were treated as follows: saline 0.9% (control), tenofovir 75 mg/kg/day, dipyridamole 25 mg/kg/day, combination tenofovir/dipyridamole (n = 10, 4 weeks). Calcein/Alizarin Red-labeling of newly formed bone was used, and long bones were prepared for micro-computed tomography (μCT)/histology. Tenofovir produced a dose-dependent increase in osteoclast differentiation (EC50 = 44.5nM) that was reversed by dipyridamole (IC50 = 0.3 μM). Tenofovir increased cathepsin K and NFATc1 mRNA levels and dipyridamole reversed the effect. Dipyridamole reversed the effect of tenofovir on pERK1/2, pp38, and NFkB nuclear translocation. Mice treated with tenofovir lost nearly 10% of their body weight (p < 0.001). μCT revealed decreased BMD and altered trabecular bone in tenofovir-treated mice, reversed by dipyridamole. TRAP-staining showed increased osteoclasts in tenofovir-treated mice (p < 0.005), an effect reversed by dipyridamole. Similar results were obtained for cathepsin K and CD68. RANKL-positive cells were increased in tenofovir-treated mice, whereas osteoprotegerin-positive cells were decreased; both effects were reversed by dipyridamole. These results suggest that treatment with agents that increase local adenosine concentrations, like dipyridamole, might prevent bone loss following tenofovir treatment. © 2019 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Lack of Myosin X Enhances Osteoclastogenesis and Increases Cell Surface Unc5b in Osteoclast-Lineage Cells. J Bone Miner Res 2019; 34:939-954.

Abstract
Normal bone mass is maintained by balanced bone formation and resorption. Myosin X (Myo10), an unconventional "myosin tail homology 4-band 4.1, ezrin, radixin, moesin" (MyTH4-FERM) domain containing myosin, is implicated in regulating osteoclast (OC) adhesion, podosome positioning, and differentiation in vitro. However, evidence is lacking for Myo10 in vivo function. Here we show that mice with Myo10 loss of function, Myo10m/m , exhibit osteoporotic deficits, which are likely due to the increased OC genesis and bone resorption because bone formation is unchanged. Similar deficits are detected in OC-selective Myo10 conditional knockout (cko) mice, indicating a cell autonomous function of Myo10. Further mechanistic studies suggest that Unc-5 Netrin receptor B (Unc5b) protein levels, in particular its cell surface level, are higher in the mutant OCs, but lower in RAW264.7 cells or HEK293 cells expressing Myo10. Suppressing Unc5b expression in bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) from Myo10m/m mice by infection with lentivirus of Unc5b shRNA markedly impaired RANKL-induced OC genesis. Netrin-1, a ligand of Unc5b, increased RANKL-induced OC formation in BMMs from both wild-type and Myo10m/m mice. Taken together, these results suggest that Myo10 plays a negative role in OC formation, likely by inhibiting Unc5b cell-surface targeting, and suppressing Netrin-1 promoted OC genesis. © 2019 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Axon guidance helps growing neural axons to follow precise paths to reach their target locations. It is a critical step for both the formation and regeneration of neuronal circuitry. Netrin-1 (Ntn1) and its receptor, deleted in colorectal carcinoma (Dcc) are essential factors for axon guidance, but their regulation in this process is incompletely understood. In this study, using quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) and biochemical and reporter gene assays, we found that the Ntn1 and Dcc genes are both robustly up-regulated in the sciatic nerve stump after peripheral nerve injury. Moreover, we found that the microRNA (miR) let-7 directly targets the Ntn1 transcript by binding to its 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR), represses Ntn1 expression, and reduces the secretion of Ntn1 protein in Schwann cells. We also identified miR-9 as the regulatory miRNA that directly targets Dcc and found that miR-9 down-regulates Dcc expression and suppresses the migration ability of Schwann cells by regulating Dcc abundance. Functional examination in dorsal root ganglion neurons disclosed that let-7 and miR-9 decrease the protein levels of Ntn1 and Dcc in these neurons, respectively, and reduce axon outgrowth. Moreover, we identified a potential regulatory network comprising let-7, miR-9, Ntn1, Dcc, and related molecules, including the RNA-binding protein Lin-28 homolog A (Lin28), SRC proto-oncogene nonreceptor tyrosine kinase (Src), and the transcription factor NF-κB. In summary, our findings reveal that the miRs let-7 and miR-9 are involved in regulating neuron pathfinding and extend our understanding of the regulatory pathways active during peripheral nerve regeneration.

Abstract
UNC-5 netrin receptor B (UNC5B) is a dependence receptor of netrin-1 that plays an essential role in mediating angiogenesis and tumorigenesis. Despite its significant roles, there is limited knowledge about the role played by UNC5B in osteogenesis. In the present study, we first demonstrated that UNC5B was required for osteogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs), both in vitro and in vivo. We also found that mechanistically, UNC5B promotes osteogenic differentiation by activating bone morphogenetic protein signaling. These findings point to a new important function of UNC5B and provide a potential basis for hASCs-mediated bone regeneration.

Abstract
The netrin family of proteins are involved in axon guidance during central nervous system development. In vertebrates, two membrane bound forms and five secreted forms of netrin have been reported. In addition to their critical role in neural morphogenesis, a growing number of reports suggest that netrin family proteins also play a role in inflammatory conditions, angiogenesis, and tumorigenesis. In these processes, Unc5 and DCC family proteins serve as receptors of netrin proteins. Recently, it was reported that some netrin family proteins may be involved in the pathogenesis of skeletal diseases including osteoporosis and arthritis. For example, administration of secreted netrin family proteins such as netrin 1 and netrin 4 has prophylactic potential in pathogenic bone degradation in mice. However, netrin 1 blocking antibody also protects mice from inflammatory bone destruction. Therefore, netrin family proteins are involved in the regulation of bone homeostasis, but their bona fide roles in the skeletal system remain controversial. In this review, we discuss the osteo-innate-immune functions of the netrin family of proteins, and summarize their therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulceration (DFU) represents a common vascular complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) with high morbidity and disability resulting from amputation. Netrin-1 level was decreased in type 2 DM patients and has been identified as a protective regulator against diabetes-triggered myocardial infarction and nephropathy. Unfortunately, its role and molecular mechanism in DFU remain poorly elucidated. Here, netrin-1 levels were reduced in DM and DFU patients relative to healthy controls, with netrin-1 levels being the lowest in DFU patients. Moreover, exposure to high glucose (HG) also suppressed netrin-1 expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Elevated netrin-1 expression by infection with Ad-netrin-1 adenovirus vector protected against HUVEC injury in response to HG by ameliorating the inhibitory effects on cell viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, cell apoptotic rate and caspase-3 activity. Importantly, HG-impaired angiogenesis was improved after netrin-1 overexpression by elevating cell migration, capillary-like tube formation and VEGF production. Mechanism assay substantiated that netrin-1 elevation increased the phosphorylation levels of AKT and eNOS, and NO production, which was notably suppressed by HG, indicating that netrin-1 overexpression restored HG-triggered impairment of the PI3K/AKT-eNOS pathway. More intriguingly, preconditioning with LY294002 (PI3K/AKT antagonist) or NG-monomethyl-l-arginine (eNOS inhibitor) antagonized netrin-1-induced activation of the PI3K/AKT-eNOS pathway. Concomitantly, treatment with these antagonists also attenuated the protective role of netrin-1 in endothelial dysfunction upon HG stimulation. These results suggest that elevation of netrin-1 may restore HG-triggered impairment of HUVEC and angiogenesis by activating the PI3K/AKT-eNOS pathway, indicating a potential agent for wound healing in DFU patients.
