Understanding the mechanistic potential of plant based phytochemicals in management of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 163:114850. [PMID: 37172332 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114850] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 04/29/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis, an epidemic disorder is defined as a loss in bone mineral density and a greater possibility of fractures in older women. It is a multifactorial disease under the control of various genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors. Insufficiency of estrogen hormone, leads to postmenopausal osteoporosis. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), despite being the most effective treatment, it is associated with the risk of breast cancer and cardiovascular disorders. This review seeks to compile the most recent information on medicinal plants and natural compounds used to treat and prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis. Furthermore, the origin, chemical constituents and the molecular mechanisms responsible for this therapeutic and preventive effect are also discussed. Literature research was conducted using PubMed, Science direct, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. Different plant extracts and pure compounds exerts their antiosteoporotic activity by inhibition of RANKL and upregulation of OPG. RANKL signaling regulates osteoclast formation, characterized by increased bone turnover and osteoprotegrin is a decoy receptor for RANKL thereby preventing bone loss from excessive resorption. In addition, this review also includes the chemical structure of bioactive compounds acting on NFκB, TNF α, RUNX2. In conclusion, we propose that postmenopausal osteoporosis could be prevented or treated with herbal products.

Abstract
Senile osteoporosis is characterized by increased bone loss and fat accumulation in marrow. Curculigoside (CCG) is the major bioactive component of Curculigo orchioides, which has been used as anti-osteoporosis therapy for elder patients since antiquity. We aimed to investigate the underlying mechanisms by which CCG regulated the bone-fat balance in marrow of aging mice. In our study, CCG treatment was identified to interfere with the stem cell lineage commitment both in vivo and in vitro. In vivo, CCG promoted the transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) expression to reverse age-related bone loss and marrow adiposity. In vitro, proper concentration of CCG upregulated TAZ expression to increase osteogenesis and decrease adipogenesis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). This regulating effect was discounted by TAZ knockdown or the use of MEK-ERK pathway inhibitor, UO126. Above all, our study confirmed the rescuing effects of CCG on the differential shift from adipogenesis to osteogenesis of BMSCs in aging mice and provided a scientific basis for the clinical use of CCG in senile osteoporosis.

Curculigoside Protects against Titanium Particle-Induced Osteolysis through the Enhancement of Osteoblast Differentiation and Reduction of Osteoclast Formation. J Immunol Res 2021; 2021:5707242. [PMID: 34285923 PMCID: PMC8275416 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5707242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis is mainly responsible for joint replacement failure and revision surgery. Curculigoside is reported to have bone-protective potential, but whether curculigoside attenuates wear particle-induced osteolysis remains unclear. In this study, titanium particles (Ti) were used to stimulate osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells in the presence or absence of curculigoside, to determine their effect on osteoblast differentiation. Rat osteoclastic bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were cocultured with Ti in the presence or absence of curculigoside, to evaluate its effect on osteoclast formation in vitro. Ti was also used to stimulate mouse calvaria to induce an osteolysis model, and curculigoside was administrated to evaluate its effect in the osteolysis model by micro-CT imaging and histopathological analyses. As the results indicated, in MC3T3-E1 cells, curculigoside treatment attenuated the Ti-induced inhibition on cell differentiation and apoptosis, increased alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) and cell mineralization, and inhibited TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production and ROS generation. In BMSCs, curculigoside treatment suppressed the Ti-induced cell formation and suppressed the TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production and F-actin ring formation. In vivo, curculigoside attenuated Ti-induced bone loss and histological damage in murine calvaria. Curculigoside treatment also reversed the RANK/RANKL/OPG and NF-κB signaling pathways, by suppressing the RANKL and NF-κB expression, while activating the OPG expression. Our study demonstrated that curculigoside treatment was able to attenuate wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis in in vivo and in vitro experiments, promoted osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cell differentiation, and inhibited osteoclast BMSC formation. It suggests that curculigoside may be a potential pharmaceutical agent for wear particle-stimulated osteolysis therapy.

Abstract
The genus Curculigo, as a folk herbal medicine, has been used for many years in China, treating impotence, limb limpness, and arthritis of the lumbar and knee joints. The last systematic review of the genus Curculigo was written in 2013, scientifically categorizing the phytochemistry and biological activities. Hitherto, the original compounds and their pharmacological activities were presented as the development of this genus, but there is not an updated review. To conclude the progression of the genus Curculigo, we collected the new literature published from 2013 to 2021 in PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar databases, and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure. The novel chlorophenolic glucosides, curculigine, phenolic glycosides, orcinosides and polysaccharides were isolated from Curculigo. The new analyzing methods were established to control the quality of Curculigo as a herbal medicine. In addition, the pharmacological effects of Curculigo focused on anti-diabetes, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, osteoporosis, antioxidation, etc. The antitumor and neuroprotective activities were newly explored in recent years. The application of herbal medicine was gradually developed in scientific methods. The medicinal value of the genus Curculigo needs to further investigate its pharmacological mechanisms. This new review offers more insights into the exploitation of the pharmacological value of the genus Curculigo.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a bone disease characterized by increasing osseous fragility and fracture due to the reduced bone mass and microstructural degradation. Primary pharmacological strategies for the treatment of osteoporosis, hormone replacement treatment (HRT), and alendronate therapies may produce adverse side-effects and may not be recommended for long-term usage. Some classic and bone-specific natural Chinese medicine are very popularly used to treat osteoporosis and bone fracture effectively in clinical with their potential value in bone growth and development, but with few adverse side-effects. Current evidence suggests that the treatments appear to improve bone metabolism and attenuate the osteoporotic imbalance between bone formation and bone resorption at a cellular level by promoting osteoblast activity and inhibiting the effects of osteoclasts. The valuable therapies might, therefore, provide an effective and safer alternative to primary pharmacological strategies. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to comprehensively review these classic and bone-specific drugs in natural Chinese medicines for the treatment of osteoporosis that had been deeply and definitely studied and reported with both bone formation and antiresorption effects, including Gynochthodes officinalis (F.C.How) Razafim. & B.Bremer (syn. Morinda officinalis F.C.How), Curculigo orchioides Gaertn., Psoralea corylifolia (L.) Medik Eucommia ulmoides Oliv., Dipsacus inermis Wall. (syn. Dipsacus asperoides C.Y.Cheng & T.M.Ai), Cibotium barometz (L.) J. Sm., Velvet Antler, Cistanche deserticola Ma, Cuscuta chinensis Lam., Cnidium monnieri (L.) Cusson, Epimedium brevicornum Maxim, Pueraria montana (Lour.) Merr. and Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge., thus providing evidence for the potential use of alternative Chinese medicine therapies to effectively treat osteoporosis.

Abstract
As plant-derived natural products, saponins have been widely applied for the dietary modification of metabolic syndrome. However, the underlying mechanisms of their preventive and therapeutic effects are still largely unclear. Nuclear receptors have been identified as potential pharmaceutical targets for treating various types of metabolic disorders. With similar structure to endogenous hormones, several saponins may serve as selective ligands for nuclear receptors. Recently, a series of saponins are proved to exert their physiological activities through binding to nuclear receptors. This review summarizes the biological and pharmacological activities of typical saponins mediated by some of the most well described nuclear receptors, including the classical steroid hormone receptors (ER, GR, MR, and AR) and the adopted orphan receptors (PPAR, LXR, FXR, and PXR).

Abstract
The regeneration capacity of osteoporotic bones is generally lower than that of normal bones. Nowadays, alendronate (AL) are orally administrated for osteoporosis due to the inhibition of bone resorption. However, systemic administration of AL is characterized by extremely low bioavailability and high toxicity. In this study, the amino-modified mesoporous bioactive glass scaffolds (N-MBGS) were fabricated by a simple powder processing technique as a novel drug-delivery system for AL. The effects of AL on the osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells derived from ovariectomized rats (rBMSCs-OVX) were first estimated. The loading efficiency and release kinetics of AL on N-MBGS were investigated in vitro and the osteogenesis of AL-loaded N-MBGS in rat calvarial defect model was detected by micro-CT measurements and the histological assay. Our results revealed that proper concentration of AL significantly promoted osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs-OVX. The amount and delivery rate of AL were greatly improved through amino modification. Additionally, scaffolds with AL showed better bone formation in vivo, especially for the N-MBGS group. Our results suggest that the novel amino-modified MBGS are promising drug-delivery system for osteoporotic bone defect repairing or regeneration. The experimental schematic of the novel amino-modified MBGS as a promising drug-delivery system for osteoporotic bone regeneration.

Abstract
Bioactive ions released from bioceramics play important roles in bone regeneration; however, it is unclear how each ionic composition in complex bioceramics exerts its specific effect on bone regeneration. The aim of this study is to elucidate the functional effects of Sr and Si ions in bioceramics on the regeneration of osteoporotic bone. A model bioceramic with Sr- and Si-containing components (SMS) was successfully fabricated and the effects of ionic products from SMS bioceramics on the osteogenic, osteoclastic and angiogenic differentiation of rBMSCs-OVX and RANKL-induced osteoclasts were investigated. The results showed that SMS bioceramics could enhance ALP activity and expression of Col 1, OCN, Runx2, and angiogenic factors including VEGF and Ang-1. SMS bioceramics not only rebalanced the OPG/RANKL ratio of rBMSCs-OVX at early stage, but also repressed RANKL-induced osteoclast formation and expression of TRAP, DC-STAMP, V-ATPase a3, and NFATc1. The synergistic effects of Sr and Si ions were further investigated as compared with those of similar concentrations of Sr and Si ions alone. Sr and Si ions possessed synergistic effects on osteogenesis, osteoclastogenesis, and angiogenesis, attributed to the dominant effects of Sr ions on enhancing angiogenesis and repressing osteoclastogenesis, and the dominant effects of Si ions on stimulating osteogenesis. The in vivo study using critical-size mandibular defects of OVX rat models showed that SMS bioceramics could significantly enhance bone formation and mineralization compared with β-TCP bioceramics. Our results are the first to elucidate the specific effect of each ion from bioceramics on osteogenesis, osteoclastogenesis and angiogenesis for osteoporotic bone regeneration, paving the way for the design of functional biomaterials with complex compositions for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

[PMID: 27328778 DOI: 10.1080/13880209.2016.1199043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2016] [Revised: 04/30/2016] [Accepted: 06/04/2016] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Clarifying the potential mechanism of the poor oral bioavailability of curculigoside would be helpful for for investigating pharmacological effects and clinical applications. OBJECTIVE To clarify the main mechanism for poor oral bioavailability. MATERIALS AND METHODS First, the pharmacokinetics of curculigoside (20 mg/kg) in rats with and without pretreatment with verapamil (10 mg/kg) was determined using a sensitive and reliable LC-MS method. Then the effects of verapamil on the transport and metabolic stability of curculigoside were investigated using Caco-2 cell transwell model and rat liver microsome incubation systems. RESULTS The results showed that verapamil could significantly increase the peak plasma concentration (from 60.17 ng/mL to 93.66 ng/mL) and AUC0-t (from 289.57 to 764.02 ng·h/mL) of curculigoside. The Caco-2 cell experiments indicated that the efflux ratio of curculigoside was 3.92 (PappAB 6.43 ± 0.57 × 10 -7 cm/s; PappBA 2.52 ± 0.37 × 10 -36 cm/s), P-gp might be involved in the transport of curculigoside, and verapamil could inhibit the efflux of curculigoside and increase the absorption of curculigoside significantly in the Caco-2 cell monolayer. Additionally, the rat liver microsome incubation experiments indicated that verapamil could significantly decrease the intrinsic clearance rate of curculigoside (from 38.8 to 23.6 μL/min/mg protein). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION These results indicated that verapamil could significantly change the pharmacokinetic profiles of curculigoside in rats, the poor absorption due to P-gp mediated efflux in intestine and high intrinsic clearance rate in rat liver may be the main reason for the poor oral absolute bioavailability of curculigoside.

Int J Biol Sci 2016; 12:1511-1522. [PMID: 27994515 PMCID: PMC5166492 DOI: 10.7150/ijbs.16499] [Citation(s) in RCA: 53] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2016] [Accepted: 09/26/2016] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
In clinic, strontium ranelate (SrR) is a useful drug to treat osteoporosis by orally taken method, but some side effect appeared in recent years. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of SrR on cells by direct application, to study the possibility of local application of this drug. Qualitative ALP staining, quantitative ALP activity assay, alizarin red staining, realtime PCR and westernblot assay were used to evaluate the osteogenesis ability of SrR under normal or osteogenic induction environment of ovariectomy bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (OVX-BMSCs). The angiogenesis ability of SrR was studied by immunofluorescence staining of CD31 and vWF of OVX-BMSCs under angiogenesis induction environment, transwell, tubeformation and realtime PCR assay of HUVECs. Signaling pathway of PI3K/AKT/mTOR was also studied. The result demonstrated that SrR could enhance proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of OVX-BMSCs. The osteogenesis effect of SrR has been proved by the better performed of ALP activity, alizarin red staining and the remarkable up-regulation of ALP, Col-I, Runx2, OCN, BMP-2, BSP, OPG of the OVX-BMSCs, and reduction of RANKL. In addition, SrR promotes angiogenesis differentiation of both OVX-BMSCs and HUVECs. Higher intensity of immunostaining of CD31 and vWF, better result of transwell and tubeformation assay could be observed in SrR treated group, and increasing mRNA levels of VEGF and Ang-1 in the OVX-BMSCs, VEGF in HUVECs were learnt. Signaling pathway assay showed that PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway was involved in this SrR triggered angiogenesis procedure. The thrombosis marker ET-1, PAI-1 and t-PA were up-regulated, but no significant differences for low concentration (<0.5mM). The concentration between 0.25-0.5mM may be more appropriate for local application, and locally application of SrR could be considered as a promising way for bone regeneration.

Low-level laser therapy with helium-neon laser improved viability of osteoporotic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells from ovariectomy-induced osteoporotic rats. JOURNAL OF BIOMEDICAL OPTICS 2016; 21:98002. [PMID: 27685702 DOI: 10.1117/1.jbo.21.9.098002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2016] [Accepted: 09/13/2016] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influences of helium–neon (He–Ne) and infrared (IR) lasers on the viability and proliferation rate of healthy and ovariectomy-induced osteoporotic (OVX) bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) in vitro. MSCs harvested from the BM of healthy and OVX rats were culture expanded. He–Ne and IR lasers were applied three times at energy densities of 0.6, 1.2, and 2.4??J/cm2 for BMMSCs. BMMSCs viability and proliferation rate were evaluated by MTT assay on days 2, 4, 6, 14, and 21. The results showed that healthy BMMSCs responded optimally to 0.6??J/cm2 using an IR laser after three times of laser radiation. Moreover, it was found that OVX-BMMSCs responded optimally to 0.6??J/cm2 with He–Ne laser and one-time laser radiation. It is concluded that the low-level laser therapy (LLLT) effect depends on the physiological state of the BMMSCs, type of the laser, wavelength, and number of laser sessions. The biostimulation efficiency of LLLT also depends on the delivered energy density. LLLT can enhance the viability and proliferation rate of healthy and especially osteoporotic autologous BMMSCs, which could be very useful in regenerative medicine.

Traditional Chinese medicine formulas for the treatment of osteoporosis: Implication for antiosteoporotic drug discovery. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2016; 189:61-80. [PMID: 27180315 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2016.05.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 149] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2015] [Revised: 04/19/2016] [Accepted: 05/10/2016] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Osteoporosis is a chronic epidemic which can leads to enhanced bone fragility and consequent an increase in fracture risk. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formulas have a long history of use in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Antiosteoporotic TCM formulas have conspicuous advantage over single drugs. Systematic data mining of the existing antiosteoporotic TCM formulas database can certainly help the drug discovery processes and help the identification of safe candidates with synergistic formulations. In this review, the authors summarize the clinical use and animal experiments of TCM formulas and their mechanism of action, and discuss the potential antiosteoporotic activity and the active constituents of commonly used herbs in TCM formulas for the therapy of osteoporosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The literature was searched from Medline, Pubmed, ScienceDirect, Spring Link, Web of Science, CNKI and VIP database from 1989 to 2015, and also collected from Chinese traditional books and Chinese Pharmacopoeia with key words such as osteoporosis, osteoblast, osteoclast, traditional Chinese medicine formulas to identify studies on the antiosteoporotic effects of TCM formulas, herbs and chemical constituents, and also their possible mechanisms. RESULTS Thirty-three TCM formulas were commonly used to treat osteoporosis, and showed significant antiosteoporotic effects in human and animal. The herb medicines and their chemical constituents in TCM formulas were summarized, the pharmacological effects and chemical constituents of commonly used herbs in TCM formulas were described in detail. The action mechanisms of TCM formulas and their chemical constituents were described. Finally, the implication for the discovery of antiosteoporotic leads and combinatory ingredients from TCM formulas were prospectively discussed. CONCLUSIONS Clinical practice and animal experiments indicate that TCM formulas provide a definite therapeutic effect on osteoporosis. The active constituents in TCM formulas are diverse in chemical structure, and include flavonoids, lignans, saponins and iridoid glycosides. Antiosteoporotic mechanism of TCM formulas and herbs involves multi regulatory pathways, such as Wnt/β-catenin, BMP/Smad, MAPK pathway and RANKL/OPG system. Phytochemicals from TCM formulas and their compositional herb medicines offer great potential for the development of novel antiosteoporotic drugs. The active ingredients in TCM formulas can be developed in combination as potent drugs, which may exhibit better antiosteoporotic effects compared to the individual compound.

Akermanite bioceramics promote osteogenesis, angiogenesis and suppress osteoclastogenesis for osteoporotic bone regeneration. Sci Rep 2016; 6:22005.

Abstract
It is a big challenge for bone healing under osteoporotic pathological condition with impaired angiogenesis, osteogenesis and remodeling. In the present study, the effect of Ca, Mg, Si containing akermanite bioceramics (Ca2MgSi2O7) extract on cell proliferation, osteogenic differentiation and angiogenic factor expression of BMSCs derived from ovariectomized rats (BMSCs-OVX) as well as the expression of osteoclastogenic factors was evaluated. The results showed that akermanite could enhance cell proliferation, ALP activity, expression of Runx2, BMP-2, BSP, OPN, OCN, OPG and angiogenic factors including VEGF and ANG-1. Meanwhile, akermanite could repress expression of osteoclastogenic factors including RANKL and TNF-α. Moreover, akermanite could activate ERK, P38, AKT and STAT3 signaling pathways, while crosstalk among these signaling pathways was evident. More importantly, the effect of akermanite extract on RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis was evaluated by TRAP staining and real-time PCR assay. The results showed that akermanite could suppress osteoclast formation and expression of TRAP, cathepsin K and NFATc1. The in vivo experiments revealed that akermanite bioceramics dramatically stimulated osteogenesis and angiogenesis in an OVX rat critical-sized calvarial defect model. All these results suggest that akermanite bioceramics with the effects of Mg and Si ions on osteogenesis, angiogenesis and osteoclastogenesis are promising biomaterials for osteoporotic bone regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Qing'e formula (QEF), prepared from an ancient Chinese recipe, was previously suggested to regulate bone metabolism and improve bone mineral density in patients with osteoporosis. To study the effects of medicated serum containing QEF on the in vitro differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) isolated from the proximal femurs of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) mice. METHODS Using an established mouse model of PMOP, mononuclear cells were isolated from the bone marrow present in the proximal femurs and cultured. PMOP mice were also randomly divided into four groups: the untreated group (Group A) and the groups treated with respectively low (Group B), medium (Group C), and high (Group D) concentrations of QEF. Serum was isolated from each and used to treat the cultured BMSCs in conjunction with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Cell morphology, proliferation rates, intracellular alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) mRNA expression were evaluated. RESULTS QEF-treated serum, particularly that containing moderate and high concentrations, appears to enhance the rhBMP-2-mediated changes in cell morphology, proliferation, and differentiation (determined via the expression of TGF-β1 mRNA and ALP activity) observed in the BMSCs isolated from PMOP mice. CONCLUSIONS QEF may play a role in the prevention and treatment of PMOP by enhancing the activity of rhBMP-2.

Abstract
As one of the important ions associated with bone osseointegration, magnesium was incorporated into a micro/nanostructured titanium surface using a magnesium plasma immersion ion-implantation method. Hierarchical hybrid micro/nanostructured titanium surfaces followed by magnesium ion implantation for 30 minutes (Mg30) and hierarchical hybrid micro/nanostructured titanium surfaces followed by magnesium ion implantation for 60 minutes (Mg60) were used as test groups. The surface morphology, chemical properties, and amount of magnesium ions released were evaluated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, field-emission transmission electron microscopy, and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry. Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMMSCs) were used to evaluate cell responses, including proliferation, spreading, and osteogenic differentiation on the surface of the material or in their medium extraction. Greater increases in the spreading and proliferation ability of rBMMSCs were observed on the surfaces of magnesium-implanted micro/nanostructures compared with the control plates. Furthermore, the osteocalcin (OCN), osteopontin (OPN), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) genes were upregulated on both surfaces and in their medium extractions. The enhanced cell responses were correlated with increasing concentrations of magnesium ions, indicating that the osteoblastic differentiation of rBMMSCs was stimulated through the magnesium ion function. The magnesium ion-implanted micro/nanostructured titanium surfaces could enhance the proliferation, spreading, and osteogenic differentiation activity of rBMMSCs, suggesting they have potential application in improving bone-titanium integration.

Abstract
Curculigoside, a phenolic glycoside, is the main active compound of Curculigo orchioides (Amaryllidaceae, rhizome). C. orchioides is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine and has been commonly used to treat orthopedic disorders and bone healing in Asia. This study evaluated the effect of curculigoside on osteogenic differentiation of human amniotic fluid-derived stem cells (hAFSCs). The results showed that curculigoside stimulated alkaline phosphatase activity and calcium deposition of hAFSCs during osteogenic differentiation in a dose-dependent manner (1-100 μg/mL), while the effects were reduced at the higher concentration of 200 μg/mL. From reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis, the osteogenic genes osteopontin (OPN) and Collagen I were upregulated with curculigoside treatment (1-100 μg/mL). Concurrently, the ratio of osteoprotegerin (OPG) to receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) was increased, indicating the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis by curculigoside. Moreover, the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling during curculigoside treatment was revealed by the upregulation of β-catenin and Cyclin D1. In summary, curculigoside improved osteogenesis and inhibited osteoclastogenesis of hAFSCs, suggesting its potential use to regulate hAFSC osteogenic differentiation for treating bone disorders.

Abstract
The regeneration capacity of the osteoporotic bones is generally lower than that of the normal bones. Current methods of bone defect treatment for osteoporosis are not always satisfactory. Recent studies have shown that the silicate based biomaterials can stimulate osteogenesis and angiogenesis due to the silicon (Si) ions released from the materials, and enhance bone regeneration in vivo. Other studies showed that strontium (Sr) plays a distinct role on inhibiting bone resorption. Based on the hypothesis that the combination of Si and Sr may have synergetic effects on osteoporotic bone regeneration, the porous Sr-substituted calcium silicate (SrCS) ceramic scaffolds combining the functions of Sr and Si elements were developed with the goals to promote osteoporotic bone defect repair. The effects of the ionic extract from SrCS on osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells derived from ovariectomized rats (rBMSCs-OVX), angiogenic differentiation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were investigated. The in vitro results showed that Sr and Si ions released from SrCS enhanced cell viability, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and mRNA expression levels of osteoblast-related genes of rBMSCs-OVX and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) without addition of extra osteogenic and angiogenic reagents. The activation in extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK) and p38 signaling pathways were observed in rBMSCs-OVX cultured in the extract of SrCS, and these effects could be blocked by ERK inhibitor PD98059, and P38 inhibitor SB203580, respectively. Furthermore, the ionic extract of SrCS stimulated HUVECs proliferation, differentiation and angiogenesis process. The in vivo experiments revealed that SrCS dramatically stimulated bone regeneration and angiogenesis in a critical sized OVX calvarial defect model, and the enhanced bone regeneration might be attributed to the modulation of osteogenic differentiation of endogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis, accompanying with the promotion of the angiogenic activity of endothelial cells (ECs).
