Abstract
Vitamin D has pleiotropic extra-skeletal effects which have been noted in mouse models of deletion of either the 25-hydroxy vitamin D 1α-hydroxylase enzyme, cyp27b1 (1OHase(-/-) mice) or of the vitamin D receptor (Vdr(-/-) mice); these may be preventable or reversible by either restoring normal signaling of the 1,25(OH)2D/VDR system, or in some cases by restoring normal mineral homeostasis. However, effects on skeletal and mineral homeostasis are clearly the major phenotype observed in humans with loss-of-function mutations in either CYP27B1 or VDR. In mouse phenocopies of these human disorders, correction of hypocalcemia and hypophosphatemia reduce elevated circulating parathyroid hormone concentrations and normalize impaired bone mineralization, but restoration of normal 1,25(OH)2D/VDR signaling may be required for optimal bone formation. Induction of high endogenous 1,25(OH)2D concentrations in genetically modified mouse models may cause increased bone resorption and decreased mineralization. Transgenic Vdr overexpression and conditional Vdr deletion in cells of the osteoblastic lineage have also provided insights into the stages of osteoblast differentiation which may mediate these actions. These anabolic and catabolic effects of the 1,25(OH)2D system on bone may therefore be a function of both the ambient concentration of circulating 1,25(OH)2D and the stage of differentiation of the osteoblast. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled '17th Vitamin D Workshop'.

Circadian rhythm and cartilage extracellular matrix genes in osseointegration: a genome-wide screening of implant failure by vitamin D deficiency. PLoS One 2011; 6:e15848. [PMID: 21264318 PMCID: PMC3019224 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0015848] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2010] [Accepted: 11/25/2010] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Successful dental and orthopedic implants require the establishment of an intimate association with bone tissue; however, the mechanistic explanation of how biological systems accomplish osseointegration is still incomplete. We sought to identify critical gene networks involved in osseointegration by exploring the implant failure model under vitamin D deficiency. METHODOLOGY Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to control or vitamin D-deficient diet prior to the osteotomy surgery in the femur bone and the placement of T-shaped Ti4Al6V implant. Two weeks after the osteotomy and implant placement, tissue formed at the osteotomy site or in the hollow chamber of T-shaped implant was harvested and total RNA was evaluated by whole genome microarray analyses. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Two-way ANOVA of microarray data identified 103 genes that were significantly (>2 fold) modulated by the implant placement and vitamin D deficiency. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses assigned the highest z-score to the circadian rhythm pathway including neuronal PAS domain 2 (NPAS2), and period homolog 2 (Per2). NPAS2 and Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like (ARNTL/Bmal 1) were upregulated around implant and diminished by vitamin D deficiency, whereas the expression pattern of Per2 was complementary. Hierarchical cluster analysis further revealed that NPAS2 was in a group predominantly composed of cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) genes. Whereas the expression of bone ECM genes around implant was not significantly affected by vitamin D deficiency, cartilage ECM genes were modulated by the presence of the implant and vitamin D status. In a proof-of-concept in vitro study, the expression of cartilage type II and X collagens was found upregulated when mouse mesenchymal stem cells were cultured on implant disk with 1,25D supplementation. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that the circadian rhythm system and cartilage extracellular matrix may be involved in the establishment of osseointegration under vitamin D regulation.

Abstract
We examined parathyroid and skeletal function in 3-month-old mice expressing the null mutation for 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1alpha-hydroxylase [1alpha(OH)ase(-/-)] and in mice expressing the null mutation for both the 1alpha(OH)ase and the calcium-sensing receptor [Casr(-/-)1alpha(OH)ase(-/-)] genes. On a normal diet, all mice were hypocalcemic, with markedly increased parathyroid hormone (PTH), increased trabecular bone volume, increased osteoblast activity, poorly mineralized bone, enlarged and distorted cartilaginous growth plates, and marked growth retardation, especially in the compound mutants. Osteoclast numbers were reduced in the Casr(-/-)1alpha(OH)ase(-/-) mice. On a high-lactose, high-calcium, high-phosphorus "rescue" diet, serum calcium and PTH were normal in the 1alpha(OH)ase(-/-) mice but increased in the Casr(-/-)1alpha(OH)ase(-/-) mice with reduced serum phosphorus. Growth plate architecture and mineralization were improved in both mutants, but linear growth of the double mutants remained abnormal. Mineralization of bone improved in all mice, but osteoblast activity and trabecular bone volume remained elevated in the Casr(-/-)1alpha(OH)ase(-/-) mice. These studies support a role for calcium-stimulated maturation of the cartilaginous growth plate and mineralization of the growth plate and bone and calcium-stimulated CaSR-mediated effects on bone resorption. PTH-mediated bone resorption may require calcium-stimulated CaSR-mediated enhancement of osteoclastic activity. (c) 2010 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
The present study assesses the in vivo effect of vitamin D(3) or cholecalciferol on some innate immune parameters of the gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata L.). Cholecalciferol was orally administered to seabream specimens in a commercial pellet food supplemented with 0 (control); 3750; 18,750 or 37,500 U kg(-1) and fish were sampled after 1, 2 and 4 weeks of treatment. Serum and head- kidney leucocytes were obtained and humoral (peroxidase and complement activity) and cellular (leucocyte peroxidase content, phagocytic, respiratory burst and natural cytotoxic activities) innate immune parameters were measured. Diet supplementation with 37,500 U kg(-1) cholecalciferol for 2 or 4 weeks resulted in a significant increase in phagocytic ability or serum peroxidase content, respectively, whereas the 3750 and 18,750 U kg(-1) supplemented diets led to significant increases in the phagocytic capacity of leucocytes at week 2 compared with the values found in control fish. Natural cytotoxic activity was increased in leucocytes from fish fed for 1 week with 3750 U kg(-1) cholecalciferol. No significant differences were observed in complement activity or in respiratory burst activity in the assayed conditions. These results suggested that dietary vitamin D(3) administration has an effect on the innate immune parameters of gilthead seabream. The immunostimulant effect was greater on the cellular innate immune parameters assayed, suggesting that similar receptors to those present in mammals are involved in the action of this vitamin in the fish immune system.

Abstract
Hindlimb unloading has been used as a model for bone loss associated with extended bed rest or space travel. However, this model also reduces muscle mass and influences other biological systems. To evaluate the impact of hindlimb unloading on bone and overall health, we applied 2-D gel electrophoresis (2-DE)-based proteomics to serum samples collected from 24 5-month-old female rats that were treated for 2 weeks under three conditions: control, hindlimb unloading (HU) and unloading plus bisphosphonate (HUA) (n=8/group). Prior to the intervention, rats were injected with 3H-tetracycline to label bone surfaces. At the end of the experiment bone, urine, and serum samples were collected. As expected, HU reduced femur aBMD and BMC and increased daily urinary 3H-tetracycline (a measure of bone resorption rate) and these effects were reversed by bisphosphonate. In addition, serum osteocalcin and TRAP5b were decreased in the HUA compared to control and HU. Abundant proteins, albumin, IgG and transferrin were removed from serum samples prior to 2-DE analysis (n=5 analytical replicates). Statistical analysis of spot intensities revealed 53 differentially expressed spots among the 3 groups. Cluster analysis shows that 30 spots reflect changes unique to the HU group (i.e. potential bone biomarkers), 6 unique to HUA (i.e. drug related), and 17 common to HU and HUA (e.g. potential mental stress or muscle loss markers). Spots were identified by LC-MS/MS after in-gel trypsin digestion and were found to relate to a variety of physiological functions.

Abstract
The hypothesis of the present work was that the pannus tissue overlying the articular hard tissues has an aggressive phenotype and contains the newly discovered collagenase-3 and its endogenous inducers and activators. We therefore analyzed the eventual presence of collagenase-3 and its regulation at the pannus-cartilage junction. Collagenase-3 mRNA (in situ hybridization) and enzyme protein (ABC and immunofluorescence staining) were found in the pannocytes in the pannus-hard tissue junction. Inflammatory round cells associated with the critical interface contained TNF-alpha and IL-1beta. These cytokines induced collagenase-3 secretion in cultured rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts. Procollagenase-3 activators, stromelysin-1, 72 kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase and membrane-type 1-MMP, were also found in the pannus-hard tissue junction. Active collagenase-3 was inhibited with alendronate (IC50 = 500-750 microM). Collagenase-3, due to its substrate profile and local synthesis in a milieu favoring its activation, might play a major role in the degradation of cartilage type II and bone type I collagens. Alendronate, at concentrations attainable in vivo, is able to inhibit collagenase-3. This might offer an option to control collagenase-3-mediated tissue destruction in rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
We observed that when monocyte/macrophage precursors derived from murine bone marrow were treated with macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), there was a dose-dependent increase in both the number of adherent cells and the degree to which the cells were highly spread. Attachment was supported by fibronectin, but not by vitronectin or laminin, suggesting that the integrins alpha 4 beta 1 and/or alpha 5 beta 1 might mediate this event. Binding to fibronectin was blocked partially by antibodies to either integrin, and inhibition was almost complete when the antibodies were used in combination. By a combination of surface labeling with 125I and metabolic labeling with [35S]methionine and [35S]cysteine, we demonstrated that M-CSF treatment led to increased synthesis and surface expression of the two beta 1 integrins. Since attachment to fibronectin and/or stromal cells plays an important role in the maturation of other hematopoietic lineages, we propose that the action of M-CSF in the differentiation of immature monocytes/macrophages includes stimulated expression of the integrins alpha 4 beta 1 and alpha 5 beta 1, leading to interactions with components of the marrow microenvironment necessary for cell maturation.

Abstract
Termine et al. first demonstrated that sequential dissociative extraction and fractionation procedures with protease inhibitors could provide a convenient approach for the study of mineral compartment constituents. The primary extraction regimen used 4 M guanidine HCl to remove most of the protein from the nonmineralized phase of bone. Subsequently, EDTA-guanidine was used to remove the mineral-phase components. These methods discriminate on the basis of physical-chemical association with a mineral phase rather than on the specific gene products of a particular cell. In the present discussion emphasis is directed at a group of divalent cation binding proteins isolated from the mineral compartment of bone. The localization, synthesis, and chemical characteristics of osteonectin, bone sialoproteins I and II, and bone acidic glycoprotein-75 are discussed and offered as possible sites for perturbation by the environment with lead exposure.

Abstract
Bone resorption depends on the formation, by osteoclasts, of an acidic extracellular compartment wherein matrix is degraded. The mechanism by which osteoclasts transport protons into that resorptive microenvironment was identified by means of adenosine triphosphate-dependent weak base accumulation in isolated osteoclast membrane vesicles, which exhibited substrate and inhibition properties characteristic of the vacuolar, electrogenic H+-transporting adenosine triphosphatase (H+-ATPase). Identify of the proton pump was confirmed by immunoblot of osteoclast membrane proteins probed with antibody to vacuolar H+-ATPase isolated from bovine kidney. The osteoclast's H+-ATPase was immunocytochemically localized to the cell-bone attachment site. Immunoelectron microscopy showed that the H+-ATPase was present in the ruffled membrane, the resorptive organ of the cell.

Abstract
Vitamin D deficiency has pronounced growth retardation effects on the skeletal system. Because the immune system has been implicated in the regulation of bone metabolism, we examined the effect of vitamin D deficiency on the functional development of immune function in a rachitic rat model. Rats deprived of vitamin D3 both in utero and in postnatal life (-/-) had significantly reduced thymocyte or splenocyte [3H]-thymidine incorporation to mitogens and decreased macrophage chemotaxis when compared with vitamin D3-sufficient rats (+/+). Rats that were deficient in vitamin D3 only during in utero development (-/+) or during postnatal life (+/-) tended to have [3H]thymidine incorporation levels that were intermediate to those of the -/- and +/+ group. Similarly, the chemotactic response of macrophages from the +/- and -/+ groups was intermediate to that of the -/- and +/+ group, except at high concentrations of C5a in which there was an overlap with the +/+ group. Interestingly, secretion of soluble mediators, including interleukin 2 by lymphocytes and interleukin 1 and PGE2 by macrophages, was unaffected by vitamin D deficiency. These results suggest that vitamin D3 is essential for the normal development of certain biological responses of lymphocytes and macrophages. Moreover, this rachitic rat model system will enable further evaluation of the role of vitamin D in the functional development of the cells of the immune system and their relationship to skeletal growth.

Abstract
Adherence to a substratum is a characteristic feature of monocyte-macrophages which may be required for several effector functions. Human peripheral blood monocytes selected by adherence were found to readhere preferentially at 1 h to fibronectin or to a biological matrix. There was then a progressive decrease in the number of adherent cells, and by 48 h only 8-20% of monocytes remained adherent. This loss of adherence occurred while monocytes remained viable by criteria such as exclusion of trypan blue or release of lactate dehydrogenase. 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) maintained the adherence of cultured monocytes to tissue culture plastic as well as to the biological matrix. This effect was concentration- and time-dependent, and suppressed by inhibitors of protein synthesis. Cellular proteins were labeled after incubation with [35S]methionine. Analysis by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed increased labeling of several distinct proteins in 1,25-(OH)2D3-treated monocytes compared with control monocytes. The increased loss of adherence and decreased overall protein synthesis observed in monocytes incubated at 45 degrees C was partially prevented by preincubation of the cells with 1,25-(OH)2D3. We further evaluated the effects of thermal stress and 1,25-(OH)2D3 on protein synthesis by monocytes, and found that 1,25-(OH)2D3 increased the synthesis of heat shock proteins, protected normal protein synthesis, and increased the rate of recovery of normal protein synthesis after the thermal stress. These observations suggest that 1,25-(OH)2D3 influences monocytes by preserving the synthesis of proteins, including those critical for the maintenance of cell adherence.

Abstract
There is increasing evidence that 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 acts directly to differentiate and activate cells of mononuclear phagocyte lineage (MNP). However, it seems possible that in bone marrow this hormone may modulate the differentiation of MNP via the factor elaborated by the stromal cells or the macrophages. We tested this hypothesis using two separate culture systems of bone marrow cells from vitamin D-replete (D+) and -deficient (D-) rats. The animals were maintained from the third day of lactation on D+ or D- diet for up to 105 days. In vivo studies showed that the long-term D- state resulted in a depletion of acid phosphatase-positive macrophagelike cells and osteoclasts in bones. After a 14 day incubation period, cultures of D- bone marrow cells contained an increased number of fibroblastoid cell colonies and a reduced number of macrophages attached to fibroblastoid cells, compared with the controls. When D+ bone marrow cells were cultured for 4 days in the presence of supernatants obtained from 14 day cultures of D- bone marrow (marrow adherent cell-conditioned medium, MACCM), the differentiation of MNP into macrophages was inhibited. Impaired differentiation was almost complete in D- bone marrow cell cultures to which D- MACCM was added. These cultures consisted of only 6.6% macrophages compared with 53.9% in the control cultures. However, when D- bone marrow cells were cultured with D+ MACCM, differentiation was restored and 75.4% of the cells were macrophages. These results suggest that a paucity of macrophages and osteoclasts in D- rats is in part, if not entirely, a result of a failure of stromal cells and/or macrophages in the bone marrow to release a factor(s) necessary for differentiation of MNP and osteoclast precursors.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that the attachment of elicited rat macrophages to bone is mediated by specific saccharides located on the cell and/or bone surfaces. We have used a macrophage-bone culture system to study the effects of two lectins, concanavalin A (con A) and soybean agglutinin (SBA), on the morphology of macrophage attachment to a devitalized bone surface and subsequent functional activity. Macrophages were obtained from 3- to 4-week-old rats by peritoneal lavage and the adherent pool was used to prepare cell suspensions. Con A-treated, SBA-treated or control cell suspensions were aliquoted onto the endocranial surface of devitalized rat calvariae. The cells were allowed to attach for 1 h at 37 degrees C, after which, the bone samples were removed from culture and prepared for scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The morphology of con A-treated macrophages attached to bone was markedly different from that of control or SBA-treated cells. Con A altered the attachment and subsequent spreading of macrophages on bone as visualized by SEM. Furthermore, the number of con A-treated cells that attached to bone and the average surface area of cell membrane apposed to the matrix was significantly different from that of control or SBA-treated cells. A 45Ca bone-release assay was performed to evaluate the functional significance of the morphological findings. Lectin-treated or control cell suspensions were allowed to attach to the endocranial surface of 45Ca pre-labeled calvariae for 1 h. Following attachment, the samples were cultured for 72 h.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The circumstantial evidence that indicates that glucocorticoids (GC) may stimulate osteoclastic resorption in vivo has recently found support in observations that demonstrate that these compounds effectively increase the activity of isolated resorptive cells (osteoclasts, macrophage polykaryons, and elicited macrophages [MO] ) in vitro. Data are presented here that indicate that this stimulation by GC is due to an enhancement of the initial stage of the resorption process, the attachment of cells to bone, and that this is caused by alterations of cell surface oligosaccharides. Specifically, dexamethasone and cortisol enhance by 80% the attachment of MO to bone surfaces in a dose dependent manner but do not alter or reduce the binding of these cells to other surfaces (plastic, collagen, and hydroxyapatite crystals). The effect of GC on cell-bone attachment is blocked by the glycosylation inhibitor, tunicamycin, and the glycosylation modifier, swainsonine; this demonstrates that asparagine-linked oligosaccharides are involved in the stimulatory process. Flow cytometric analysis of GC-treated cells using a panel of fluoresceinated lectins confirms this by indicating a selective, enhanced exposure of plasma membrane-associated N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylgalactosamine residues, sugars we have previously shown to be pivotal in MO-bone binding. Finally, progesterone, a known GC antagonist, blocks GC-stimulated resorption, macrophage-bone binding, and membrane oligosaccharide modification, presumably by competing for the GC receptor. Progesterone alone alters none of these processes. Thus, GC stimulates the resorptive activity of macrophages by enhancing the initial events in the degradative process (cell-bone binding) and does so, apparently, via receptor-mediator alteration of cell surface glycoproteins.

Abstract
Macrophages (M phi) are multipotential cells capable of giving rise to osteoclasts and of resorbing bone. Since both of these processes are ultimately dependent upon the attachment of cells to a mineralized bone surface, we have examined in this study the mechanism by which such attachment is achieved. The data show that elicited rat peritoneal M phi bind to bone in a temperature-dependent and -saturable manner with half-maximal attachment occurring within 10 min at 37 degrees C and reaching a plateau by approximately 60 min. The kinetics of binding are essentially the same whether devitalized bone particles or viable calvaria are used as a substrate. The attachment of M phi to bone is inhibited by some sugars (e.g., N-acetyl-galactosamine, thiogalactoside, beta-lactose), fetuin and asialofetuin, and by pretreating the bone with periodate. Binding is also significantly reduced when M phi are preincubated with tunicamycin and swainsonine at nontoxic concentrations sufficient to inhibit or alter glycosylation. On the other hand, exposing the cells to neuraminidase increases the capacity of M phi to bind to bone. Collectively, our observations indicate that the attachment of M phi to bone is a highly regulated process and is mediated, at least in part, by saccharides located on both the cell and the bone surface.
