Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypoxia and mouth breathing are closely related to maxillofacial bone metabolism and are characteristic of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Being key factors in the hypoxia response, hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and HIF-responsive gene vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are essential for bone remodeling. This study focuses on the role of the HIF-1α/VEGF pathway in alveolar bone metabolism during OSAHS. MATERIALS AND METHODS 36 three-week-old male Wistar rats were divided into three groups: twelve control rats, twelve bilateral nasal obstructed (BNO) rats, twelve BNO rats treated with intraperitoneal injection of Dimethyloxalylglycine (DMOG). After two weeks, the microstructure and bone mineral density (BMD) of alveolar bone were evaluated using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). The expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF in the alveolar bone were then assessed via immunohistochemistry staining, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and Alizarin red S staining were performed to evaluate osteogenesis of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). RESULTS Significant reductions in alveolar bone density were noted in BNO rats. Bilateral nasal obstruction increased the expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF in alveolar bone. With upregulation of HIF-1α/VEGF via DMOG, alveolar bone density of BNO rats increased. Furthermore, DMOG promoted the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs by stabilizing the HIF-1α protein and increasing the expression of VEGF. CONCLUSION Bilateral nasal obstruction changes alveolar bone structure and leads to a reduction in alveolar bone density. Moreover, the expression of the HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway increases to protect alveolar bone density reduction in BNO rats.

Abstract
Repairing critical size bone defects (CSBD) is a major clinical challenge and requires effective intervention by biomaterial scaffolds. Inspired by the fact that the cartilaginous template-based endochondral ossification (ECO) process is crucial to bone healing and development, developing biomimetic biomaterials to promote ECO is recognized as a promising approach for repairing CSBD. With the unique highly hydrated 3D polymeric network, hydrogels can be designed to closely emulate the physiochemical properties of cartilage matrix to facilitate ECO. In this review, the various preparation methods of hydrogels possessing the specific physiochemical properties required for promoting ECO are introduced. The materiobiological impacts of the physicochemical properties of hydrogels, such as mechanical properties, topographical structures and chemical compositions on ECO, and the associated molecular mechanisms related to the BMP, Wnt, TGF-β, HIF-1α, FGF, and RhoA signaling pathways are further summarized. This review provides a detailed coverage on the materiobiological insights required for the design and preparation of hydrogel-based biomaterials to facilitate bone regeneration.

Abstract
The hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) pathway coordinates skeletal bone homeostasis and endocrine functions. Activation of the HIF-1α pathway increases glucose uptake by osteoblasts, which reduces blood glucose levels. However, it is unclear whether activating the HIF-1α pathway in osteoblasts can help normalize glucose metabolism under diabetic conditions through its endocrine function. In addition to increasing bone mass and reducing blood glucose levels, activating the HIF-1α pathway by specifically knocking out Von Hippel‒Lindau (Vhl) in osteoblasts partially alleviated the symptoms of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), including increased glucose clearance in the diabetic state, protection of pancreatic β cell from STZ-induced apoptosis, promotion of pancreatic β cell proliferation, and stimulation of insulin secretion. Further screening of bone-derived factors revealed that islet regeneration-derived protein III gamma (RegIIIγ) is an osteoblast-derived hypoxia-sensing factor critical for protection against STZ-induced T1DM. In addition, we found that iminodiacetic acid deferoxamine (SF-DFO), a compound that mimics hypoxia and targets bone tissue, can alleviate symptoms of STZ-induced T1DM by activating the HIF-1α-RegIIIγ pathway in the skeleton. These data suggest that the osteoblastic HIF-1α-RegIIIγ pathway is a potential target for treating T1DM.

Abstract
Type H vessels are specialized blood vessels found in the bone marrow that are closely associated with osteogenic activity. They are characterized by high expression of endomucin and CD31. Type H vessels form in the cancellous bone area during long bone development to provide adequate nutritional support for cells near the growth plate. They also influence the proliferation and differentiation of osteoprogenitors and osteoclasts in a paracrine manner, thereby creating a suitable microenvironment to facilitate new bone formation. Because of the close relationship between type H vessels and osteogenic activity, it has been found that type H vessels play a role in the physiological and pathological processes of bone diseases such as fracture healing, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis, and tumor bone metastasis. Moreover, experimental treatments targeting type H vessels can improve the outcomes of these diseases. Here, we reviewed the molecular mechanisms related to type H vessels and their associated osteogenic activities, which are helpful in further understanding the role of type H vessels in bone metabolism and will provide a theoretical basis and ideas for comprehending bone diseases from the vascular perspective.

Int J Biochem Cell Biol 2023; 164:106476. [PMID: 37802385 DOI: 10.1016/j.biocel.2023.106476] [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: 05/12/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) has been validated as one of the most potent osteoinduction factors, but its underlying mechanism remains unclear. As a member of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family, MMP13 may be involved in regulating the lineage-specific differentiation of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). The goal of this study was to determine whether MMP13 regulates the osteoinduction potential of BMP9 in MEFs, which are multipotent progenitor cells widely used for stem cell biology research. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that BMP9-induced osteogenic markers and/or bone were enhanced by exogenous MMP13 in MEFs, but were reduced by MMP13 knockdown or inhibition. The expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) was induced by BMP9, which was enhanced by MMP13. The protein expression of β-catenin and phosphorylation level of glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3β) were increased by BMP9 in MEFs, as was the translocation of β-catenin from the cytoplasm to the nucleus; all these effects of BMP9 were enhanced by MMP13. Furthermore, the MMP13 effects of increasing BMP9-induced β-catenin protein expression and GSK-3β phosphorylation level were partially reversed by HIF-1α knockdown. These results suggest that MMP13 can enhance the osteoinduction potential of BMP9, which may be mediated, at least in part, through the HIF-1α/β-catenin axis. Our findings demonstrate a novel role of MMP13 in the lineage decision of progenitor cells and provide a promising strategy to speed up bone regeneration.

Abstract
Periodontitis, the sixth most prevalent epidemic disease globally, profoundly impacts oral aesthetics and masticatory functionality. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), an oxygen-dependent transcriptional activator, has emerged as a pivotal regulator in periodontal tissue and alveolar bone metabolism, exerts critical functions in angiogenesis, erythropoiesis, energy metabolism, and cell fate determination. Numerous essential phenotypes regulated by HIF are intricately associated with bone metabolism in periodontal tissues. Extensive investigations have highlighted the central role of HIF and its downstream target genes and pathways in the coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Within this concise perspective, we comprehensively review the cellular phenotypic alterations and microenvironmental dynamics linking HIF to periodontitis. We analyze current research on the HIF pathway, elucidating its impact on bone repair and regeneration, while unraveling the involved cellular and molecular mechanisms. Furthermore, we briefly discuss the potential application of targeted interventions aimed at HIF in the field of bone tissue regeneration engineering. This review expands our biological understanding of the intricate relationship between the HIF gene and bone angiogenesis in periodontitis and offers valuable insights for the development of innovative therapies to expedite bone repair and regeneration.

Abstract
The vascular system plays a crucial role in bone tissue. Angiogenic and osteogenic processes are coupled through a spatial-temporal connection. Recent studies have identified three types of capillaries in the skeletal system. Compared with type L and E vessels, type H vessels express high levels of CD31 and endomucin, and function to couple angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Endothelial cells in type H vessels interact with osteolineage cells (e.g., osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and osteocytes) through cytokines or signaling pathways to maintain bone growth and homeostasis. In imbalanced bone homeostases, such as osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, it may be a new therapeutic strategy to regulate the endothelial cell activity in type H vessels to repair the imbalance. Here, we reviewed the latest progress in relevant factors or signaling pathways in coupling angiogenesis and osteogenesis. This review would contribute to further understanding the role and mechanisms of type H vessels in coupling angiogenic and osteogenic processes. Furthermore, it will facilitate the development of therapeutic approaches for bone disorders by targeting type H vessels.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are two important types of non-coding RNAs that are not translated into protein. These molecules can regulate various biological processes, including stem cell differentiation and self-renewal. One of the first known miRNAs in mammals is miR-21. Cancer-related studies have shown that this miRNA has proto-oncogene activity and is elevated in cancers. However, it is confirmed that miR-21 inhibits stem cell pluripotency and self-renewal and induces differentiation by targeting various genes. Regenerative medicine is a field of medical science that tries to regenerate and repair damaged tissues. Various studies have shown that miR-21 plays an essential role in regenerative medicine by affecting stem cell proliferation and differentiation. In this review, we will discuss the function of miR-21 in regenerative medicine of the liver, nerve, spinal cord, wound, bone, and dental tissues. In addition, the function of natural compounds and lncRNAs will be analyzed as potential regulators of miR-21 expression in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The normal physiological activities and functions of bone cells cannot be separated from the balance of the oxygenation level, and the physiological activities of bone cells are different under different oxygenation levels. At present, in vitro cell cultures are generally performed in a normoxic environment, and the partial pressure of oxygen of a conventional incubator is generally set at 141 mmHg (18.6%, close to the 20.1% oxygen in ambient air). This value is higher than the mean value of the oxygen partial pressure in human bone tissue. Additionally, the further away from the endosteal sinusoids, the lower the oxygen content. It follows that the construction of a hypoxic microenvironment is the key point of in vitro experimental investigation. However, current methods of cellular research cannot realize precise control of oxygenation levels at the microscale, and the development of microfluidic platforms can overcome the inherent limitations of these methods. In addition to discussing the characteristics of the hypoxic microenvironment in bone tissue, this review will discuss various methods of constructing oxygen gradients in vitro and measuring oxygen tension from the microscale based on microfluidic technology. This integration of advantages and disadvantages to perfect the experimental study will help us to study the physiological responses of cells under more physiological-relevant conditions and provide a new strategy for future research on various in vitro cell biomedicines.

Abstract
Skeletal stem/progenitor cells (SSPCs), characterized by self-renewal and multipotency, are essential for skeletal development, bone remodeling, and bone repair. These cells have traditionally been known to reside within the bone marrow, but recent studies have identified the presence of distinct SSPC populations in other skeletal compartments such as the growth plate, periosteum, and calvarial sutures. Differences in the cellular and matrix environment of distinct SSPC populations are believed to regulate their stemness and to direct their roles at different stages of development, homeostasis, and regeneration; differences in embryonic origin and adjacent tissue structures also affect SSPC regulation. As these SSPC niches are dynamic and highly specialized, changes under stress conditions and with aging can alter the cellular composition and molecular mechanisms in place, contributing to the dysregulation of local SSPCs and their activity in bone regeneration. Therefore, a better understanding of the different regulatory mechanisms for the distinct SSPCs in each skeletal compartment, and in different conditions, could provide answers to the existing knowledge gap and the impetus for realizing their potential in this biological and medical space. Here, we summarize the current scientific advances made in the study of the differential regulation pathways for distinct SSPCs in different bone compartments. We also discuss the physical, biological, and molecular factors that affect each skeletal compartment niche. Lastly, we look into how aging influences the regenerative capacity of SSPCs. Understanding these regulatory differences can open new avenues for the discovery of novel treatment approaches for calvarial or long bone repair.

[PMID: 36833823 PMCID: PMC9963321 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20043129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Revised: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 02/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
The hypoxia pathway not only regulates the organism to adapt to the special environment, such as short-term hypoxia in the plateau under normal physiological conditions, but also plays an important role in the occurrence and development of various diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis. Bone, as a special organ of the body, is in a relatively low oxygen environment, in which the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-related molecules maintains the necessary conditions for bone development. Osteoporosis disease with iron overload endangers individuals, families and society, and bone homeostasis disorder is linked to some extent with hypoxia pathway abnormality, so it is urgent to clarify the hypoxia pathway in osteoporosis to guide clinical medication efficiently. Based on this background, using the keywords "hypoxia/HIF, osteoporosis, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, osteocytes, iron/iron metabolism", a matching search was carried out through the Pubmed and Web Of Science databases, then the papers related to this review were screened, summarized and sorted. This review summarizes the relationship and regulation between the hypoxia pathway and osteoporosis (also including osteoblasts, osteoclasts, osteocytes) by arranging the references on the latest research progress, introduces briefly the application of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in osteoporosis symptoms (mechanical stimulation induces skeletal response to hypoxic signal activation), hypoxic-related drugs used in iron accumulation/osteoporosis model study, and also puts forward the prospects of future research.

Research Progress of Macrophages in Bone Regeneration. J Tissue Eng Regen Med 2023. [DOI: 10.1155/2023/1512966] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/10/2023]
Abstract
Bone tissue regeneration plays an increasingly important role in contemporary clinical treatment. The reconstruction of bone defects remains a huge challenge for clinicians. Bone regeneration is regulated by the immune system, in which inflammation is an important regulating factor in bone formation and remodeling. As the main cells involved in inflammation, macrophages play a key role in osteogenesis by polarizing into different phenotypes during different stages of bone regeneration. Considering this, this review mainly summarizes the function of macrophage in bone regeneration based on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and vascular cells. In conclusion, anti-inflammatory macrophages (M2) have a greater potentiality to promote bone regeneration than M0 and classically activated proinflammatory macrophages (M1). In the fracture and bone defect models, tissue engineering materials can induce the transition from M1 to M2, alter the bone microenvironment, and promote bone regeneration through interactions with bone-related cells and blood vessels. The review provides a further understanding of macrophage polarization behavior in the evolving field of bone immunology.

Abstract
Blood and lymphatic vessels form a versatile transport network and provide inductive signals to regulate tissue-specific functions. Blood vessels in bone regulate osteogenesis and hematopoiesis, but current dogma suggests that bone lacks lymphatic vessels. Here, by combining high-resolution light-sheet imaging and cell-specific mouse genetics, we demonstrate presence of lymphatic vessels in mouse and human bones. We find that lymphatic vessels in bone expand during genotoxic stress. VEGF-C/VEGFR-3 signaling and genotoxic stress-induced IL6 drive lymphangiogenesis in bones. During lymphangiogenesis, secretion of CXCL12 from proliferating lymphatic endothelial cells is critical for hematopoietic and bone regeneration. Moreover, lymphangiocrine CXCL12 triggers expansion of mature Myh11+ CXCR4+ pericytes, which differentiate into bone cells and contribute to bone and hematopoietic regeneration. In aged animals, such expansion of lymphatic vessels and Myh11-positive cells in response to genotoxic stress is impaired. These data suggest lymphangiogenesis as a therapeutic avenue to stimulate hematopoietic and bone regeneration.

Abstract
Little is known about the impact of multiple trauma (MT)-related systemic hypoxia on osseous protein concentration of the hypoxia transcriptome. To shed light on this issue, we investigated erythropoietin (Epo), erythropoietin receptor (EpoR), and Y-box binding protein 1 (YB-1) concentrations in the fracture zone in a porcine MT + traumatic hemorrhage (TH) model. Sixteen male domestic pigs were randomized into two groups: an MT + TH group and a sham group. A tibia fracture, lung contusion, and TH were induced in the MT + TH group. The total observation period was 72 h. YB-1 concentrations in bone marrow (BM) were significantly lower in the fracture zone of the MT + TH animals than in the sham animals. Significant downregulation of BM-localized EpoR concentration in both unfractured and fractured bones was observed in the MT + TH animals relative to the sham animals. In BM, Epo concentrations were higher in the fracture zone of the MT + TH animals compared with that in the sham animals. Significantly higher Epo concentrations were detected in the BM of fractured bone compared to that in cortical bone. Our results provide the first evidence that MT + TH alters hypoxia-related protein concentrations. The impacts of both the fracture and concomitant injuries on protein concentrations need to be studied in more detail to shed light on the hypoxia transcriptome in fractured and healthy bones after MT + TH.

Abstract
The critical importance of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)s in the regulation of endochondral bone formation is now well established. HIF protein levels are closely regulated by the prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing protein (PHD) mediated ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation pathway. Of the three PHD family members expressed in bone, we previously showed that mice with conditional disruption of the Phd2 gene in chondrocytes led to a massive increase in the trabecular bone mass of the long bones. By contrast, loss of Phd3 expression in chondrocytes had no skeletal effects. To investigate the role of Phd1 expressed in chondrocytes on skeletal development, we conditionally disrupted the Phd1 gene in chondrocytes by crossing Phd1 floxed mice with Collagen 2α1-Cre mice for evaluation of a skeletal phenotype. At 12 weeks of age, neither body weight nor body length was significantly different in the Cre+; Phd1flox/flox conditional knockout (cKO) mice compared to Cre−; Phd1flox/flox wild-type (WT) control mice. Micro-CT measurements revealed significant gender differences in the trabecular bone volume adjusted for tissue volume at the secondary spongiosa of the femur and the tibia for both genotypes, but no genotype differences were found for any of the trabecular bone measurements of either femur or tibia. Similarly, cortical bone parameters were not affected in the Phd1 cKO mice compared to control mice. Histomorphometric analyses revealed no significant differences in bone area, bone formation rate or mineral apposition rate in the secondary spongiosa of femurs between cKO and WT control mice. Loss of Phd1 expression in chondrocytes did not affect the expression of markers of chondrocytes (collage 2, collagen 10) or osteoblasts (alkaline phosphatase, bone sialoprotein) in the bones of cKO mice. Based on these and our published data, we conclude that of the three PHD family members, only Phd2 expressed in chondrocytes regulates endochondral bone formation and development of peak bone mass in mice.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2022; 315:120396.

Abstract
Fluoride (F) exposure can cause osteosclerosis, which is characterised by a high bone mass, but its mechanism is not fully illustrated. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effects of excessive F exposure on the bone lesion by treating female Sprague-Dawley rats with different concentrations of sodium fluoride (NaF) (0, 55, 110 and 221 mg/L) for 90 days and the corresponding concentrations of fluorine ion (0, 25, 50 and 100 mg/L, respectively). Histopathological results showed that excessive F exposure caused the enlargement of trabeculae and their integration into one large piece, growth plate thickening, articular cartilage impairment and bone collagen abnormality. Meanwhile, F promoted calcium deposition and bone mineralisation, and induced abnormal osteogenesis increased. The results of micro-computed tomography also confirmed that excessive F destroyed the bone microstructure and induced a high-bone-mass phenotype, consistent with the results of pathomorphology. Mechanistically, excessive amounts of F led to angiogenesis inhibition and HIF-1α signalling enhancement. Subsequently, F induced autophagy and canonical Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway activation. Collectively, these results manifested that F enhanced the hypoxia inducible factor-1α signalling, which in turn triggered autophagy and canonical Wnt/β-catenin signalling activation, ultimately leading to osteosclerosis in the rats.

HIF1α Promotes BMP9-Mediated Osteoblastic Differentiation and Vascularization by Interacting with CBFA1. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:2475169.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) as the most potent osteogenic molecule which initiates the differentiation of stem cells into the osteoblast lineage and regulates angiogenesis, remains unclear how BMP9-regulated angiogenic signaling is coupled to the osteogenic pathway. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) is critical for vascularization and osteogenic differentiation and the CBFA1, known as runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) which plays a regulatory role in osteogenesis. This study investigated the combined effect of HIF1α and Runx2 on BMP9-induced osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation of the immortalized mouse embryonic fibroblasts (iMEFs). The effect of HIF1α and Runx2 on the osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation of iMEFs was evaluated. The relationship between HIF1α- and Runx2-mediated angiogenesis during BMP9-regulated osteogenic differentiation of iMEFs was evaluated by ChIP assays. We demonstrated that exogenous expression of HIF1α and Runx2 is coupled to potentiate BMP9-induced osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation both in vitro and animal model. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays (ChIP) showed that Runx2 is a downstream target of HIF1α that regulates BMP9-mediated osteogenesis and angiogenic differentiation. Our findings reveal that HIF1α immediately regulates Runx2 and may originate an essential regulatory thread to harmonize osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation in iMEFs, and this coupling between HIF1α and Runx2 is essential for bone healing.

Abstract
Background: To study the pathogenesis of steroid-induced femoral head osteonecrosis, an ideal animal model is very important. As experimental animals, mice are beneficial for studying the pathogenesis of disease. However, there are currently few mouse models of steroid-induced femoral head osteonecrosis, and there are many questions that require further exploration and research.Purposes: The purpose of this study was to establish a new model of osteonecrosis in mice using angiotensin II (Ang II) combined with asparaginase (ASP) and dexamethasone (DEX) and to study the effects of this drug combination on femoral head osteonecrosis in mice.Methods: Male BALB/c mice (n = 60) were randomly divided into three groups. Group A (normal control, NC) was treated with physiological saline and given a normal diet. Group B (DEX + ASP, DA) was given free access to food and water (containing 2 mg/L DEX) and subjected to intraperitoneal injection of ASP (1200 IU/kg twice/week for 8 weeks). Group C (DEX + ASP + Ang II, DAA) was treated the same as group B, it was also given free access to food and water (containing 2 mg/L DEX) and subjected to intraperitoneal injection of ASP (1200 IU/kg twice/week for 8 weeks), but in the 4th and 8th weeks, subcutaneous implantation of a capsule osmotic pump (0.28 mg/kg/day Ang II) was performed. The mice were sacrificed in the 4th and 8th weeks, and the model success rate, mouse mortality rate, body weight, blood lipids, coagulation factors, histopathology, and number of local vessels in the femoral head were evaluated.Results: DAA increased the model success rate [4th week, 30% (DA) vs. 40% (DAA) vs. 0% (NC); 8th week, 40% (DA) vs. 70% (DAA) vs. 0% (NC)]. There was no significant difference in mortality rate between the groups [4th week, 0% (DA) vs. 0% (DAA) vs. 0% (NC); 8th week, 5% (DA) vs. 10% (DAA) vs. 0% (NC)]. DAA affected mouse body weight and significantly affected blood lipids and blood coagulation factors. DAA reduces the number of blood vessels in the femoral head and destroys the local blood supply.Conclusion: Angiotensin II combined with asparaginase and dexamethasone can obviously promote the necrosis of femoral head and provide a new idea for the model and treatment of osteonecrosis.

Abstract
The modification of proteins by small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) molecules, SUMOylation, is a key post-translational modification involved in a variety of biological processes, such as chromosome organization, DNA replication and repair, transcription, nuclear transport, and cell signaling transduction. In recent years, emerging evidence has shown that SUMOylation regulates the development and homeostasis of the skeletal system, with its dysregulation causing skeletal diseases, suggesting that SUMOylation pathways may serve as a promising therapeutic target. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which SUMOylation pathways regulate skeletal cells in physiological and disease contexts.

Resveratrol Ameliorates High Altitude Hypoxia-Induced Osteoporosis by Suppressing the ROS/HIF Signaling Pathway. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27175538. [PMID: 36080305 PMCID: PMC9458036 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27175538] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 08/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Hypoxia at high-altitude leads to osteoporosis. Resveratrol (RES), as an antioxidant, has been reported to promote osteoblastogenesis and suppress osteoclastogenesis. However, the therapeutic effect of RES against osteoporosis induced by high-altitude hypoxia remains unclear. Thus, this study was intended to investigate the potential effects of RES on high-altitude hypoxia-induced osteoporosis both in vivo and in vitro. Male Wistar rats were given RES (400 mg/kg) once daily for nine weeks under hypoxia, while the control was allowed to grow under normoxia. Bone mineral density (BMD), the levels of bone metabolism-related markers, and the changes on a histological level were measured. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and RAW264.7 were incubated with RES under hypoxia, with a control growing under normoxia, followed by the evaluation of proliferation and differentiation. The results showed that RES inhibited high-altitude hypoxia-induced reduction in BMD, enhanced alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN), calcitonin (CT) and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) levels, whereas it reduced cross-linked carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-I) levels and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity in vivo. In addition, RES attenuated histological deteriorations in the femurs. In vitro, RES promoted osteoblastogenesis and mineralization in hypoxia-exposed BMSCs, along with promotion in RUNX2, ALP, OCN and osteopontin (OPN) levels, and inhibited the proliferation and osteoclastogenesis of RAW264.7. The promotion effects of RES on osteoblastogenesis were accompanied by the down-regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) induced by hypoxia. These results demonstrate that RES can alleviate high-altitude hypoxia-induced osteoporosis via promoting osteoblastogenesis by suppressing the ROS/HIF-1α signaling pathway. Thus, we suggest that RES might be a potential treatment with minimal side effects to protect against high-altitude hypoxia-induced osteoporosis.

Abstract
Bone tissue destruction leads to severe pain, physical flaws, and loss of motility. Bone repair using biocompatible and osteo-inductive scaffolds is regarded as a viable and potential therapeutic approach. However, for large-scale bone regeneration, oxygen and nutrient supply have become limiting factors. Further, a considerable need exists for recruited cell activities and blood vessel growth. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling pathways induced by hypoxia are involved in angiogenesis and osteogenesis. As an important transcription factor, HIF-1 functions by modulating vital genes, such as VEGF, PDK1, and EPO, and is a crucial regulator that influences the final fate of bone regeneration. Collectively, to achieve better osteogenesis results, the in-depth molecular mechanisms that underpin the links between materials, cells, and HIF signaling pathways must be determined. This review aimed to provide an in-depth insight into recent progress in HIF-regulated bone regeneration. Hypoxia and cellular oxygen-sensing mechanisms and their correlations with osteogenesis were determined, and recent studies on hypoxia-inducing and hypoxia-mimicking strategies were briefly described. Finally, the potential applications of HIF signaling in bone regeneration were highlighted. This review provides theoretical support for establishing a novel and viable bone repair strategy in the clinic by harnessing HIF signaling.

HIF-1α plays an essential role in BMP9-mediated osteoblast differentiation through the induction of a glycolytic enzyme, PDK1. J Cell Physiol 2022; 237:2183-2197. [PMID: 35411937 DOI: 10.1002/jcp.30752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2021] [Revised: 12/30/2021] [Accepted: 01/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Bone homeostasis is regulated by bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs), among which BMP9 is one of the most osteogenic. Here, we have found that BMP9 rapidly increases the protein expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) in osteoblasts under normoxic conditions more efficiently than BMP2 or BMP4. A combination of BMP9 and hypoxia further increased HIF-1α protein expression. HIF-1α protein induction by BMP9 is not accompanied by messenger RNA (mRNA) increase and is inhibited by the activation of prolyl hydroxylase domain (PHD)-containing protein, indicating that BMP9 induces HIF-1α protein expression by inhibiting PHD-mediated protein degradation. BMP9-induced HIF-1α protein increase was abrogated by inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (AKT) kinase, indicating that it is mediated by PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. BMP9 increased mRNA expression of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 (PDK1), a glycolytic enzyme, and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), an angiogenic factor, in osteoblasts. Notably, BMP9-induced mRNA expression of PDK1, but not that of VEGF-A, was significantly inhibited by small interference RNA-mediated knockdown of Hif-1α. BMP9-induced matrix mineralization and osteogenic marker gene expressions were significantly inhibited by chemical inhibition and gene knockdown of either Hif-1α or Pdk-1, respectively. Since increased glycolysis is an essential feature of differentiated osteoblasts, our findings indicate that HIF-1α expression is important in BMP9-mediated osteoblast differentiation through the induction of PDK1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In orthodontics, mechanical stress plays an important role in the process of bone remodeling. Mechanical stress has an effect on osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). However, the mechanism remains to be studied. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of demethyltransferase fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) on osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs under mechanical stress condition. METHODS AND RESULTS The rat BMSCs were cultured in vitro, followed by flow cytometry to identify the cell surface antigens. Osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs was induced by mechanical stress by using the flexcell tension system for 6 h every day and 3 days in total. BMSCs were transfected by using plasmid for FTO knockdown. The expression level of FTO, hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α, runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were measured by real-time qPCR, western blotting. ALP activity were determined by ALP staining assays. The expression of FTO and HIF-1α in BMSCs with mechanical stress were significantly higher than BMSCs without mechanical stress, also, the expression of osteogenic differentiation markers were higher in BMSCs with mechanical stress. Knockdown of FTO decreased expression of osteogenic differentiation marker and ALP activity in stretched BMSCs. In addition, the expression of HIF-1α was decreased after knocking down FTO. CONCLUSIONS FTO promotes the expression of HIF-1α and osteogenic differentiation under the condition of mechanical stress. This finding may facilitate the clinical application of orthodontics and the mechanism research of mechanical stress-induced osteogenesis.

Abstract
The potential translation of bio-inert polymer scaffolds as bone substitutes is limited by the lack of neovascularization upon implantation and subsequently diminished ingrowth of host bone, most likely resulted from the inability to replicate appropriate endogenous crosstalk between cells. Human umbilical vein endothelial cell-derived decellularized extracellular matrix (HdECM), which contains a collection of angiocrine biomolecules, has recently been demonstrated to mediate endothelial cells(ECs) - osteoprogenitors(OPs) crosstalk. We employed the HdECM to create a PCL (polycaprolactone)/fibrin/HdECM (PFE) hybrid scaffold. We hypothesized PFE scaffold could reconstitute a bio-instructive microenvironment that reintroduces the crosstalk, resulting in vascularized bone regeneration. Following implantation in a rat femoral bone defect, the PFE scaffold demonstrated early vascular infiltration and enhanced bone regeneration by microangiography (μ-AG) and micro-computational tomography (μ-CT). Based on the immunofluorescence studies, PFE mediated the endogenous angiogenesis and osteogenesis with a substantial number of type H vessels and osteoprogenitors. In addition, superior osseointegration was observed by a direct host bone-PCL interface, which was likely attributed to the formation of type H vessels. The bio-instructive microenvironment created by our innovative PFE scaffold made possible superior osseointegration and type H vessel-related bone regeneration. It could become an alternative solution of improving the osseointegration of bone substitutes with the help of induced type H vessels, which could compensate for the inherent biological inertness of synthetic polymers.

Abstract
The restoration of cranio‐maxillofacial deformities often requires complex reconstructive surgery in a challenging anatomical region, with abnormal soft tissue structures and bony deficits. In this proof‐of‐concept, the possibility of vertical bone augmentation was explored by suspending hemispherically shaped titanium‐reinforced porous calcium phosphate (CaP) implants (n = 12) over the frontal bone in a sheep model (n = 6). The animals were euthanized after week 13 and the specimens were subject to micro‐computed tomography (μCT) and comprehensive histological analysis. Histology showed that the space between implant and the recipient bone was filled with a higher percentage of newly formed bone (NFB) versus soft tissue with a median of 53% and 47%, respectively. Similar results were obtained from the μ‐CT analysis, with a median of 56% NFB and 44% soft tissue filling the void. Noteworthy, significantly higher bone‐implant contact was found for the CaP (78%, range 14%–94%) versus the Titanium (29%, range 0%–75%) portion of the implant exposed to the surrounding bone. The histological analysis indicates that the CaP replacement by bone is driven by macrophages over time, emphasized by material‐filled macrophages found in close vicinity to the CaP with only a small number of single osteoclasts found actively remodeling the NFB. This study shows that CaP based implants can be assembled with the help of additive manufacturing to guide vertical bone formation without decortification or administration of growth factors. Furthermore, it highlights the potential disadvantage of a seamless fit between the implant and the recipient's bone.

Abstract
Objectives The hypoxia-inducible factor 1-α (HIF1α), a key molecule in mediating bone-vessel crosstalk, has been considered a promising target for treating osteoporosis caused by gonadal hormones. However, senile osteoporosis, with accumulated senescent cells in aged bone, has a distinct pathogenesis. The study aimed at revealing the unknown role of HIF1α in aged bone, thus broadening its practical application in senile osteoporosis. Materials and methods Femurs and tibias were collected from untreated mice of various ages (2 months old, 10 months old, 18 months old) and treated mice (2 months old, 18 months old) underwent 4-w gavage of 2-methoxyestradiol (a kind of HIF1α inhibitor). Bone-vessel phenotypes were observed by microfil infusion, micro-CT and HE staining. Markers of senescence, osteogenesis, angiogenesis, oxidative stress and expression of HIF1α were detected by senescence β-galactosidase staining, qRT-PCR, western blot and immunostaining, respectively. Furthermore, bone mesenchymal stem cells from young mice (YBMSCs) and aged mice (ABMSCs) were transfected by knockout siRNA and overexpression plasmid of HIF1α. Senescence β-galactosidase staining, Cell Counting Kit-8, transwell assay, alkaline phosphatase staining, alizarin red-S staining and angiogenesis tests were utilized to assess the biological properties of two cell types. Then, Pifithrin-α and Nutlin-3a were adopted to intervene p53 of the two cells. Finally, H2O2 on YBMSCs and NAC on ABMSCs were exploited to change their status of oxidative stress to do a deeper detection. Results Senescent phenotypes, impaired osteogenesis–angiogenesis coupling and increased HIF1α were observed in aged bone and ABMSCs. However, 2-methoxyestradiol improved bone-vessel metabolism of aged mice while damaged that of young mice. Mechanically, HIF1α showed opposed effects in regulating the cell migration and osteogenesis–angiogenesis coupling of YBMSCs and ABMSCs, but no remarked effect on the proliferation of either cell type. Pifithrin-α upregulated the osteogenic and angiogenic markers of HIF1α-siRNA-transfected YBMSCs, and Nutlin-3a alleviated those of HIF1α-siRNA-transfected ABMSCs. The HIF1α-p53 relationship was negative in YBMSCs and NAC-treated ABMSCs, but positive in ABMSCs and H2O2-treated YBMSCs. Conclusion The dual role of HIF1α in osteogenesis–angiogenesis coupling may depend on the ROS-mediated HIF1α-p53 relationship. New awareness about HIF1α will be conducive to its future application in senile osteoporosis.

Abstract
Pathological obesity and its complications are associated with an increased propensity for bone fractures. Humans with certain genetic polymorphisms at the kinase suppressor of ras2 (KSR2) locus develop severe early-onset obesity and type 2 diabetes. Both conditions are phenocopied in mice with <i>Ksr2</i> deleted, but whether this affects bone health remains unknown. Here we studied the bones of global <i>Ksr2</i> null mice and found that <i>Ksr2</i> negatively regulates femoral, but not vertebral, bone mass in two genetic backgrounds, while the paralogous gene, <i>Ksr1</i>, was dispensable for bone homeostasis. Mechanistically, KSR2 regulates bone formation by influencing adipocyte differentiation at the expense of osteoblasts in the bone marrow. Compared with <i>Ksr2</i>'s known role as a regulator of feeding by its function in the hypothalamus, pair-feeding and osteoblast-specific conditional deletion of <i>Ksr2</i> reveals that <i>Ksr2</i> can regulate bone formation autonomously. Despite the gains in appendicular bone mass observed in the absence of <i>Ksr2</i>, bone strength, as well as fracture healing response, remains compromised in these mice. This study highlights the interrelationship between adiposity and bone health and provides mechanistic insights into how <i>Ksr2</i>, an adiposity and diabetic gene, regulates bone metabolism.

Abstract
Since 1994, YC-1 (Lificiguat, 3-(5′-hydroxymethyl-2′-furyl)-1-benzylindazole) has been synthesized, and many targets for special bioactivities have been explored, such as stimulation of platelet-soluble guanylate cyclase, indirect elevation of platelet cGMP levels, and inhibition of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) and NF-κB. Recently, Riociguat®, the first soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator drug used to treat pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary arterial hypertension, was derived from the YC-1 structure. In this review, we aim to highlight the synthesis and structure–activity relationships in the development of YC-1 analogs and their possible indications. Since 1994, YC-1 (Lificiguat) has been synthesized, and many targets for special bioactivities have been explored, such as stimulation of platelet-soluble guanylate cyclase, indirect elevation of platelet cGMP levels, and inhibition of HIF-1 and NF-κB.![]()

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays a central role in physiological and pathological bone conditions. Its role in signalment and control of bone cell population differentiation, activity, and fate is increasingly recognized. The possibilities of its use and manipulation with therapeutic goals are virtually unending. However, how redox balance interplays with the response to mechanical stimuli is yet to be fully understood. The present work summarizes current knowledge on these aspects, in an integrative and broad introductory perspective.

Abstract
Blood flow restriction may augment the skeletal response to whole-body vibration. This study used a randomised, crossover design to investigate the acute response of serum sclerostin and bone turnover biomarkers to whole-body vibration with blood flow restriction. Ten healthy males (mean±standard deviation; age: 27±8 years) completed two experimental conditions separated by 7 days: (i) whole-body vibration (10 1-minute bouts of whole-body vibration with 30 s recovery) or (ii) whole-body vibration with lower-body blood flow restriction (10 cycles of 110 mmHg inflation with 30 s deflation during recovery). Fasting blood samples were obtained immediately before and immediately after exercise, then 1 hour, and 24 hours after exercise. Serum samples were analysed for sclerostin, cross-linked C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen, and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase. There was a significant time × condition interaction for bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (p=0.003); bone-specific alkaline phosphatase values at 24 hours post-exercise were significantly higher following whole-body vibration compared to combined whole-body vibration and blood flow restriction (p=0.028). No significant time × condition interaction occurred for any other outcome measure (p>0.05). These findings suggest that a single session of whole-body vibration combined with blood flow restriction does not significantly affect serum sclerostin or bone turnover biomarkers.

Abstract
Background Poor osseointegration is the key reason for implant failure after arthroplasty,whether under osteoporotic or normal bone conditions. To date, osseointegration remains a major challenge. Recent studies have shown that deferoxamine (DFO) can accelerate osteogenesis by activating the hypoxia signaling pathway. The purpose of this study was to test the following hypothesis: after knee replacement, intra-articular injection of DFO will promote osteogenesis and osseointegration with a 3D printed titanium prosthesis in the bones of osteoporotic rats. Materials and methods Ninety female Sprague–Dawley rats were used for the experiment. Ten rats were used to confirm the successful establishment of the osteoporosis model: five rats in the sham operation group and five rats in the ovariectomy group. After ovariectomy and knee arthroplasty were performed, the remaining 80 rats were randomly divided into DFO and control groups (n = 40 per group). The two groups were treated by intraarticular injection of DFO and saline respectively. After 2 weeks, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunohistochemistry were used to evaluate the levels of HIF-1a, VEGF, and CD31. HIF-1a and VEGF have been shown to promote angiogenesis and bone regeneration, and CD31 is an important marker of angiogenesis. After 12 weeks, the specimens were examined by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), biomechanics, and histopathology to evaluate osteogenesis and osseointegration. Results The results of PCR showed that the mRNA levels of VEGF and CD31 in the DFO group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The immunohistochemistry results indicated that positive cell expression of HIF-1a, VEGF, and CD31 in the DFO group was also higher. Compared with the control group, the micro-CT parameters of BMD, BV/TV, TB. N, and TB. Th were significantly higher. The maximal pull-out force and the bone-to-implant contact value were also higher. Conclusions The local administration of DFO, which is used to activate the HIF-1a signaling pathway, can promote osteogenesis and osseointegration with a prosthesis in osteoporotic bone.

Abstract
Bone injuries and fractures are often associated with post-surgical failures, extended healing times, infection, a lack of return to a normal active lifestyle, and corrosion associated allergies. In this regard, this review presents a comprehensive report on advances in nanotechnology driven solutions for bone tissue engineering. The fabrication of metals such as copper, gold, platinum, palladium, silver, strontium, titanium, zinc oxide, and magnetic nanoparticles with tunable physico-chemical and opto-electronic properties for osteogenic scaffolds is discussed here in detail. Furthermore, the rational selection of a polymeric base such as chitosan, collagen, poly (L-lactide), hydroxyl-propyl-methyl cellulose, poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid, polyglucose-sorbitol-carboxymethy ether, polycaprolactone, natural rubber latex, and silk fibroin for scaffold preparation is also discussed. These advanced materials and fabrication strategies not only provide for appropriate mechanical strength but also render integrity, making them appealing for orthopedic applications. Further, such scaffolds can be functionalized with ligands or biomolecules such as hydroxyapatite, polypyrrole (PPy), magnesium, zinc dopants, and growth factors to stimulate osteogenic differentiation, mineralization, and neovascularization to aid in rapid healing. Future directions to co-incorporate bioceramics, biogenic nanoparticles, and fourth generation biomaterials to enhance biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and rapid recovery are also included in this review. Hence, the further development of such biomimetic metal-based nano-scaffolds at a lower cost with reduced risks and greater efficacy at regrowing bone can revolutionize the future of orthopedics.

Prolyl Hydroxylase Domain-Containing Protein 3 Gene Expression in Chondrocytes Is Not Essential for Bone Development in Mice. Cells 2021; 10:cells10092200.

Abstract
We previously showed that conditional disruption of the Phd2 gene in chondrocytes led to a massive increase in long bone trabecular bone mass. Loss of Phd2 gene expression or inhibition of PHD2 activity by a specific inhibitor resulted in a several-fold compensatory increase in Phd3 expression in chondrocytes. To determine if expression of PHD3 plays a role in endochondral bone formation, we conditionally disrupted the Phd3 gene in chondrocytes by crossing Phd3 floxed (Phd3flox/flox) mice with Col2α1-Cre mice. Loss of Phd3 expression in the chondrocytes of Cre+; Phd3flox/flox conditional knockout (cKO) mice was confirmed by real time PCR. At 16 weeks of age, neither body weight nor body length was significantly different in the Phd3 cKO mice compared to Cre−; Phd3flox/flox wild-type (WT) mice. Areal BMD measurements of total body as well as femur, tibia, and lumbar skeletal sites were not significantly different between the cKO and WT mice at 16 weeks of age. Micro-CT measurements revealed significant gender differences in the trabecular bone volume adjusted for tissue volume at the secondary spongiosa of the femur and the tibia for both genotypes, but no genotype difference was found for any of the trabecular bone measurements of either the femur or the tibia. Trabecular bone volume of distal femur epiphysis was not different between cKO and WT mice. Histology analyses revealed Phd3 cKO mice exhibited a comparable chondrocyte differentiation and proliferation, as evidenced by no changes in cartilage thickness and area in the cKO mice as compared to WT littermates. Consistent with the in vivo data, lentiviral shRNA-mediated knockdown of Phd3 expression in chondrocytes did not affect the expression of markers of chondrocyte differentiation (Col2, Col10, Acan, Sox9). Our study found that Phd2 but not Phd3 expressed in chondrocytes regulates endochondral bone formation, and the compensatory increase in Phd3 expression in the chondrocytes of Phd2 cKO mice is not the cause for increased trabecular bone mass in Phd2 cKO mice.

Abstract
Physical activity is widely recognized as a biotherapy by WHO in the fight and prevention of bone diseases such as osteoporosis. It reduces the risk of disabling fractures associated with many comorbidities, and whose repair is a major public health and economic issue. Bone tissue is a dynamic supportive tissue that reshapes itself according to the mechanical stresses to which it is exposed. Physical exercise is recognized as a key factor for bone health. However, the effects of exercise on bone quality depend on exercise protocols, duration, intensity, and frequency. Today, the effects of different exercise modalities on capillary bone vascularization, bone blood flow, and bone angiogenesis remain poorly understood and unclear. As vascularization is an integral part of bone repair process, the analysis of the preventive and/or curative effects of physical exercise is currently very undeveloped. Angiogenesis–osteogenesis coupling may constitute a new way for understanding the role of physical activity, especially in fracturing or in the integration of bone biomaterials. Thus, this review aimed to clarify the link between physical activities, vascularization, and bone repair.

Abstract
During orthodontic tooth movement, transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) is stabilised in the periodontal ligament. While HIF1α in periodontal ligament fibroblasts can be stabilised by mechanical compression, in macrophages pressure application alone is not sufficient to stabilise HIF1α. The present study was conducted to investigate the role of myeloid HIF1α during orthodontic tooth movement. Orthodontic tooth movement was performed in wildtype and Hif1αΔmyel mice lacking HIF1α expression in myeloid cells. Subsequently, µCT images were obtained to determine periodontal bone loss, extent of orthodontic tooth movement and bone density. RNA was isolated from the periodontal ligament of the control side and the orthodontically treated side, and the expression of genes involved in bone remodelling was investigated. The extent of tooth movement was increased in Hif1αΔmyel mice. This may be due to the lower bone density of the Hif1αΔmyel mice. Deletion of myeloid Hif1α was associated with increased expression of Ctsk and Acp5, while both Rankl and its decoy receptor Opg were increased. HIF1α from myeloid cells thus appears to play a regulatory role in orthodontic tooth movement.

Abstract
Systems biology unravels the black box of signaling pathway of cells; but which has not been extensively applied to reveal the mechanistic synergy of a herbal formula. The therapeutic efficacies of a herbal formula having multi-target, multi-function and multi-pathway are the niches of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Here, we reported an integrated omics approach, coupled with the knockout of an active compound, to measure the regulation of cellular signaling, as to reveal the landscape in cultured rat osteoblasts having synergistic pharmacological efficacy of Danggui Buxue Tang (DBT), a Chinese herbal formula containing Angelicae Sinensis Radix and Astragali Radix. The changes in signaling pathways responsible for energy metabolism, RNA metabolism and protein metabolism showed distinct features between DBT and calycosin-depleted DBT. Here, our results show that calycosin within DBT can orchestrate the osteoblastic functions and signaling pathways of the entire herbal formula. This finding reveals the harmony of herbal medicine in pharmacological functions, as well as the design of drug/herbal medicine formulation. The integration of systems biology can provide novel and essential insights into the synergistic property of a herbal formula, which is a key in modernizing TCM.

Bromer, Frederik Duch, Mikkel Bo Brent, Michael Pedersen, Jesper Skovhus Thomsen, Annemarie Brüel, and Casper Bindzus Foldager. The effect of normobaric intermittent hypoxia therapy on bone in normal and disuse osteopenic mice. High Alt Med Biol. 22: 225-234, 2021. Background: Systemic intermittent hypoxia therapy (IHT) has been shown to elicit beneficial effects on multiple physiological systems. However, only few studies have investigated the effect of long-term normobaric IHT on bone mass and mechanical and microstructural properties. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of IHT on bone in both healthy and osteopenic mice. Materials and Methods: Thirty mice were stratified into four groups: Ctrl, Ctrl+IHT, Botox, and Botox+IHT. Osteopenia was induced by injecting Botox into the right hindlimb of the mice causing paralysis and disuse. IHT animals were placed in a normobaric hypoxia-chamber (10% oxygen) for 1 hour twice daily 5 days/week. Animals were sacrificed after 21 days, and DEXA, micro-computed tomography, and mechanical testing were performed on the femora. Results: As expected, Botox resulted in a significant reduction of bone mineral content (-23.4%), area bone mineral density (-19.1%), femoral neck strength (Fmax: -54.7%), bone volume fraction (bone volume/tissue volume: -41.8%), and trabecular thickness (-32.4%). IHT had no measurable effect on the bone properties in either healthy or osteopenic mice. Conclusion: The study confirmed that Botox led to loss of bone mass, deterioration of trabecular microstructure, and loss of bone strength. These changes were not influenced by IHT. Notably, IHT had no detrimental effect on bone in either healthy or osteopenic mice. This indicates that IHT of ailments outside of the skeletal system may be administered without causing harm to the bone.

Lithium and Copper Induce the Osteogenesis-Angiogenesis Coupling of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells via Crosstalk between Canonical Wnt and HIF-1 α Signaling Pathways. Stem Cells Int 2021; 2021:6662164.

Abstract
The combination of osteogenesis and angiogenesis dual-delivery trace element-carrying bioactive scaffolds and stem cells is a promising method for bone regeneration and repair. Canonical Wnt and HIF-1α signaling pathways are vital for BMSCs' osteogenic differentiation and secretion of osteogenic factors, respectively. Simultaneously, lithium (Li) and copper (Cu) can activate the canonical Wnt and HIF-1α signaling pathway, respectively. Moreover, emerging evidence has shown that the canonical Wnt and HIF signaling pathways are related to coupling osteogenesis and angiogenesis. However, it is still unclear whether the lithium- and copper-doped bioactive scaffold can induce the coupling of the osteogenesis and angiogenesis in BMSCs and the underlying mechanism. So, we fabricated a lithium- (Li+-) and copper- (Cu2+-) doped organic/inorganic (Li 2.5-Cu 1.0-HA/Col) scaffold to evaluate the coupling osteogenesis and angiogenesis effects of lithium and copper on BMSCs and further explore its mechanism. We investigated that the sustained release of lithium and copper from the Li 2.5-Cu 1.0-HA/Col scaffold could couple the osteogenesis- and angiogenesis-related factor secretion in BMSCs seeding on it. Moreover, our results showed that 500 μM Li+ could activate the canonical Wnt signaling pathway and rescue the XAV-939 inhibition on it. In addition, we demonstrated that the 25 μM Cu2+ was similar to 1% oxygen environment in terms of the effectiveness of activating the HIF-1α signaling pathway. More importantly, the combination stimuli of Li+ and Cu2+ could couple the osteogenesis and angiogenesis process and further upregulate the osteogenesis- and angiogenesis-related gene expression via crosstalk between the canonical Wnt and HIF-1α signaling pathway. In conclusion, this study revealed that lithium and copper could crosstalk between the canonical Wnt and HIF-1α signaling pathways to couple the osteogenesis and angiogenesis in BMSCs when they are sustainably released from the Li-Cu-HA/Col scaffold.

Abstract
The repair and treatment of articular cartilage injury is a huge challenge of orthopedics. Currently, most of the clinical methods applied in treating cartilage injuries are mainly to relieve pains rather than to cure them, while the strategy of tissue engineering is highly expected to achieve the successful repair of osteochondral defects. Clear understandings of the physiological structures and mechanical properties of cartilage, bone and osteochondral tissues have been established, but the understanding of their physiological heterogeneity still needs further investigation. Apart from the gradients in the micromorphology and composition of cartilage-to-bone extracellular matrixes, an oxygen gradient also exists in natural osteochondral tissue. The response of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-mediated cells to oxygen would affect the differentiation of stem cells and the maturation of osteochondral tissue. This article reviews the roles of oxygen level and HIF signaling pathway in the development of articular cartilage tissue, and their prospective applications in bone and cartilage tissue engineering. The strategies for regulating HIF signaling pathway and how these strategies finding their potential applications in the regeneration of integrated osteochondral tissue are also discussed.

Abstract
Historically, the field of regenerative medicine has aimed to heal damaged tissue through the use of biomaterials scaffolds or delivery of foreign progenitor cells. Despite 30 years of research, however, translation and commercialization of these techniques has been limited. To enable mammalian regeneration, a more practical approach may instead be to develop therapies that evoke endogenous processes reminiscent of those seen in innate regenerators. Recently, investigations into tadpole tail regrowth, zebrafish limb restoration, and the super-healing Murphy Roths Large (MRL) mouse strain, have identified ancient oxygen-sensing pathways as a possible target to achieve this goal. Specifically, upregulation of the transcription factor, hypoxia-inducible factor one alpha (HIF-1α) has been shown to modulate cell metabolism and plasticity, as well as inflammation and tissue remodeling, possibly priming injuries for regeneration. Since HIF-1α signaling is conserved across species, environmental or pharmacological manipulation of oxygen-dependent pathways may elicit a regenerative response in non-healing mammals. In this review, we will explore the emerging role of HIF-1α in mammalian healing and regeneration, as well as attempts to modulate protein stability through hyperbaric oxygen treatment, intermittent hypoxia therapy, and pharmacological targeting. We believe that these therapies could breathe new life into the field of regenerative medicine.

Glut1 expression is increased by p53 reduction to switch metabolism to glycolysis during osteoblast differentiation. Biochem J 2020; 477:1795-1811. [PMID: 32242617 DOI: 10.1042/bcj20190888] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2019] [Revised: 04/02/2020] [Accepted: 04/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
The glycolytic system is selected for ATP synthesis not only in tumor cells but also in differentiated cells. Differentiated osteoblasts also switch the dominant metabolic pathway to aerobic glycolysis. We found that primary osteoblasts increased expressions of glycolysis-related enzymes such as Glut1, hexokinase 1 and 2, lactate dehydrogenase A and pyruvate kinase M2 during their differentiation. Osteoblast differentiation decreased expression of tumor suppressor p53, which negatively regulates Glut1 expression, and enhanced phosphorylation of AKT, which is regulated by phosphoinositol-3 kinase (PI3K). An inhibitor of PI3K enhanced p53 expression and repressed Glut1 expression. Luciferase reporter assay showed that p53 negatively regulated transcriptional activity of solute carrier family 2 member 1 gene promoter region. Inhibition of glycolysis in osteoblasts reduced ATP contents more significantly than inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation by carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazine. These results have indicated that osteoblasts increase Glut1 expression through the down-regulation of p53 to switch their metabolic pathway to glycolysis during differentiation.

Abstract
The hypoxic state of the brain tissue surrounding craniocerebral injury induces an increase in the secretion of HIF-1α during the healing process. HIF-1α can promote mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) migration to ischemic and hypoxic sites by regulating the expression levels of molecules such as stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) in the microenvironment. Stem cells express the SDF-1 receptor C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) and serve a key role in tissue repair, as well as a number of physiological and pathological processes. The present study aimed to determine the role of HIF-1α/SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling in the process of accelerated fracture healing during craniocerebral injury. Cultured MSCs underwent HIF-1α knockdown to elucidate its effect on the proliferative ability of MSCs, and the effect of SDF-1 in MSCs was investigated. It was also determined whether HIF-1α could promote osteogenesis via SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling and recruit MSCs. The results indicated that HIF-1α knockdown suppressed MSC proliferation in vitro, and SDF-1 promoted cell migration via binding to CXCR4. Furthermore, HIF-1α knockdown inhibited MSC migration via SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling. Considering the wide distribution and diversity of roles of SDF-1 and CXCR4, the present results may form a basis for the development of novel strategies for the treatment of craniocerebral injury.

Platelet Lysate Induces in Human Osteoblasts Resumption of Cell Proliferation and Activation of Pathways Relevant for Revascularization and Regeneration of Damaged Bone. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21145123.

Abstract
To understand the regenerative effect of platelet-released molecules in bone repair one should investigate the cascade of events involving the resident osteoblast population during the reconstructive process. Here the in vitro response of human osteoblasts to a platelet lysate (PL) stimulus is reported. Quiescent or very slow dividing osteoblasts showed a burst of proliferation after PL stimulation and returned to a none or very slow dividing condition when the PL was removed. PL stimulated osteoblasts maintained a differentiation capability in vitro and in vivo when tested in absence of PL. Since angiogenesis plays a crucial role in the bone healing process, we investigated in PL stimulated osteoblasts the activation of hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) pathways, involved in both angiogenesis and bone regeneration. We observed phosphorylation of STAT3 and a strong induction, nuclear translocation and DNA binding of HIF-1α. In agreement with the induction of HIF-1α an enhanced secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) occurred. The double effect of the PL on quiescent osteoblasts, i.e., resumption of proliferation and activation of pathways promoting both angiogenesis and bone formation, provides a rationale to the application of PL as therapeutic agent in post-traumatic bone repair.

Abstract
Bone turnover, which is determined by osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and osteoblast-mediated bone formation, represents a highly energy consuming process. The metabolic requirements of osteoblast differentiation and mineralization, both essential for regular bone formation, however, remain incompletely understood. Here we identify the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) δ as key regulator of osteoblast metabolism. Induction of PPARδ was essential for the metabolic adaption and increased rate in mitochondrial respiration necessary for the differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts. Osteoblast-specific deletion of PPARδ in mice, in turn, resulted in an altered energy homeostasis of osteoblasts, impaired mineralization and reduced bone mass. These data show that PPARδ acts as key regulator of osteoblast metabolism and highlight the relevance of cellular metabolic rewiring during osteoblast-mediated bone formation and bone-turnover.

Abstract
The osteoblast differentiation capacity of skeletal stem cells (SSCs) must be tightly regulated, as inadequate bone formation results in low bone mass and skeletal fragility, and over-exuberant osteogenesis results in heterotopic ossification (HO) of soft tissues. RUNX2 is essential for tuning this balance, but the mechanisms of posttranslational control of RUNX2 remain to be fully elucidated. Here, we identify that a CK2/HAUSP pathway is a key regulator of RUNX2 stability, as Casein kinase 2 (CK2) phosphorylates RUNX2, recruiting the deubiquitinase herpesvirus-associated ubiquitin-specific protease (HAUSP), which stabilizes RUNX2 by diverting it away from ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation. This pathway is important for both the commitment of SSCs to osteoprogenitors and their subsequent maturation. This CK2/HAUSP/RUNX2 pathway is also necessary for HO, as its inhibition blocked HO in multiple models. Collectively, active deubiquitination of RUNX2 is required for bone formation and this CK2/HAUSP deubiquitination pathway offers therapeutic opportunities for disorders of inappropriate mineralization.

Abstract
Blood vessels serve as a versatile transport system and play crucial roles in organ development, regeneration, and stem cell behavior. In the skeletal system, certain capillaries support perivascular stem cells or osteoprogenitor cells and thereby regulate bone formation. Recent studies reported that a specialized capillary subtype, termed type H vessels, is shown to couple angiogenesis and osteogenesis in rodents and humans. They can be distinguished by specific cell surface markers, as the endothelial cells in the metaphysis and endosteum highly express the junctional protein CD31 and the sialoglycoprotein endomucin. Here, we provide an overview of the role of type H vessels in bone homeostasis and summarize their linkage with various cytokines to control bone cell behavior and bone formation. We also discuss the potential clinical application for bone disorders by targeting these specific vessels according to their physiological and pathobiological settings.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Fractures are common in individuals with COPD and occur at higher bone mass values than expected. COPD appears to be an important risk factor for bone fragility. INTRODUCTION Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures, but screening and prophylactic measures to prevent both disorders are often neglected in this population. This case-control study assessed the prevalence of osteopenia, osteoporosis, and fractures in patients with COPD, and identified potential risk factors for fractures in this population. METHODS Overall, 91 patients with COPD (COPD group; COPDG) and 81 age- and sex-matched controls (control group; CG) were assessed with bone mineral density (BMD), thoracic/lumbar spine radiographs, and serum PTH and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) levels. The occurrence of prior fractures was retrieved from clinical history. RESULTS The prevalence of total fractures in the COPDG was 57.1% (odds of fracture 4.7 times greater compared with the CG), and the femoral neck T-score emerged as the best predictor of fractures. Compared with the CG, the COPDG had lower spine and femoral BMD (p ≤ 0.01) and 25(OH)D levels (p = 0.01) and 2.6 times greater odds of osteoporosis. Among men, vertebral fractures were more prevalent in the COPDG versus CG (25.9% vs. 6.5%, respectively, p = 0.01). The odds of fracture increased with femoral neck T-scores ≤ - 2.7 in the CG and ≤ - 0.6 in the COPDG. CONCLUSION These results add robust evidence to an increased odds of osteoporosis and fractures in COPD. Fractures in the COPDG occurred at higher BMD values than expected, suggesting that COPD may be an independent marker of fracture risk, reinforcing a need for regular osteoporosis screening with BMD measurement and prophylaxis of fractures in patients with this disorder.

Abstract
The treatment of critical-size bone defects following complicated fractures, infections or tumor resections is a major challenge. The same applies to fractures in patients with impaired bone healing due to systemic inflammatory and metabolic diseases. Despite considerable progress in development and establishment of new surgical techniques, design of bone graft substitutes and imaging techniques, these scenarios still represent unresolved clinical problems. However, the development of new active substances offers novel potential solutions for these issues. This work discusses therapeutic approaches that influence angiogenesis or hypoxic situations in healing bone and surrounding tissue. In particular, literature on sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulators and nitric oxide (NO•) donors, including bi-functional (hybrid) compounds like NO•-releasing cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors, was critically reviewed with regard to their local and systemic mode of action.
