Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disorder involving scarring of pulmonary tissue and a subsequent decrease in respiratory capacity, ultimately resulting in death. Tartrate resistant acid phosphatase 5 (ACP5) plays a role in IPF but the exact mechanisms are yet to be elucidated. In this study, we have utilized various perturbations of the bleomycin mouse model of IPF including genetic knockout, RANKL inhibition, and macrophage adoptive transfer to further understand ACP5's role in pulmonary fibrosis. Genetic ablation of Acp5 decreased immune cell recruitment to the lungs and reduced the levels of hydroxyproline (reflecting extracellular matrix-production) as well as histological damage. Additionally, gene expression profiling of murine lung tissue revealed downregulation of genes including Ccl13, Mmp13, and Il-1α that encodes proteins specifically related to immune cell recruitment and macrophage/fibroblast interactions. Furthermore, antibody-based neutralization of RANKL, an important inducer of Acp5 expression, reduced immune cell recruitment but did not decrease fibrotic lung development. Adoptive transfer of Acp5-/- bone marrow-derived monocyte (BMDM) macrophages 7 or 14 days after bleomycin administration resulted in reductions of cytokine production and decreased levels of lung damage, compared to adoptive transfer of WT control macrophages. Taken together, the data presented in this study suggest that macrophage derived ACP5 plays an important role in development of pulmonary fibrosis and could present a tractable target for therapeutic intervention in IPF.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is essential for the repair and replacement of damaged or aging bones. Continuous remodeling is necessary to prevent the accumulation of bone damage and to maintain bone strength and calcium balance. As bones age, the coupling mechanism between bone formation and absorption becomes dysregulated, and bone loss becomes dominant. Bone development and repair rely on interaction and communication between osteoclasts and surrounding cells. Osteoclasts are specialized cells that are accountable for bone resorption and degradation, and any abnormalities in their activity can result in notable alterations in bone structure and worsen disease symptoms. Recent findings from transgenic mouse models and bone analysis have greatly enhanced our understanding of the origin, differentiation pathway, and activation stages of osteoclasts. In this review, we explore osteoclasts and discuss the cellular and molecular events that drive their generation, focusing on intracellular oxidative and antioxidant signaling. This knowledge can help develop targeted therapies for diseases associated with osteoclast activation.

Abstract
With the aging of the global population, the incidence of musculoskeletal diseases has been increasing, seriously affecting people's health. As people age, the microenvironment within skeleton favors bone resorption and inhibits bone formation, accompanied by bone marrow fat accumulation and multiple cellular senescence. Specifically, skeletal stem/stromal cells (SSCs) during aging tend to undergo adipogenesis rather than osteogenesis. Meanwhile, osteoblasts, as well as osteocytes, showed increased apoptosis, decreased quantity, and multiple functional limitations including impaired mechanical sensing, intercellular modulation, and exosome secretion. Also, the bone resorption function of macrophage-lineage cells (including osteoclasts and preosteoclasts) was significantly enhanced, as well as impaired vascularization and innervation. In this study, we systematically reviewed the effect of aging on bone and the within microenvironment (including skeletal cells as well as their intracellular structure variations, vascular structures, innervation, marrow fat distribution, and lymphatic system) caused by aging, and mechanisms of osteoimmune regulation of the bone environment in the aging state, and the causal relationship with multiple musculoskeletal diseases in addition with their potential therapeutic strategy.

Comparison of osteoclast differentiation protocols from human induced pluripotent stem cells of different tissue origins. Stem Cell Res Ther 2023; 14:319. [PMID: 37936199 PMCID: PMC10631132 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-023-03547-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ever since their discovery, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been extensively differentiated into a large variety of cell types. However, a limited amount of work has been dedicated to differentiating iPSCs into osteoclasts. While several differentiation protocols have been published, it remains unclear which protocols or differentiation methods are preferable regarding the differentiation of osteoclasts. METHODS In this study, we compared the osteoclastogenesis capacity of a peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-derived iPSC line to a fibroblast-derived iPSC line in conjunction with either embryoid body-based or monolayer-based differentiation strategies. Both cell lines and differentiation protocols were investigated regarding their ability to generate osteoclasts and their inherent robustness and ease of use. The ability of both cell lines to remain undifferentiated while propagating using a feeder-free system was assessed using alkaline phosphatase staining. This was followed by evaluating mesodermal differentiation and the characterization of hematopoietic progenitor cells using flow cytometry. Finally, osteoclast yield and functionality based on resorptive activity, Cathepsin K and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) expression were assessed. The results were validated using qRT-PCR throughout the differentiation stages. RESULTS Embryoid body-based differentiation yielded CD45+, CD14+, CD11b+ subpopulations which in turn differentiated into osteoclasts which demonstrated TRAP positivity, Cathepsin K expression and mineral resorptive capabilities. This was regardless of which iPSC line was used. Monolayer-based differentiation yielded lower quantities of hematopoietic cells that were mostly CD34+ and did not subsequently differentiate into osteoclasts. CONCLUSIONS The outcome of this study demonstrates the successful differentiation of osteoclasts from iPSCs in conjunction with the embryoid-based differentiation method, while the monolayer-based method did not yield osteoclasts. No differences were observed regarding osteoclast differentiation between the PBMC and fibroblast-derived iPSC lines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To comparatively evaluate the in vivo outcome of MTA repair for contaminated and non-contaminated furcation perforations (FP) with or without PRF and CGF as a matrix in dogs' teeth. METHODS Ninety dog teeth were divided into five groups based on the iatrogenic FP repair approach after doing root canal treatment: negative control (without FP), positive control (FP without repair), MTA, MTA + PRF and MTA + CGF groups, where FP were repaired promptly in subdivision 1 (n = 10; non-contaminated) and after 4 weeks of oral contamination in subdivision 2 (n = 10;contaminated). After 3 months, the perforation site was assessed radiographically (vertical bone density), histologically (inflammatory cell count, epithelial proliferation, cementum and bone deposition) and immunohistochemically (OPN and TRAP antibodies localisation). Data collected were statistically analysed using SPSS software at a 0.05 significance level. RESULTS The MTA + PRF and MTA + CGF groups demonstrated significantly more bone formation, OPN immunolocalisation and fewer inflammatory cell counts than MTA group. MTA, MTA + PRF and MTA + CGF groups showed significantly favourable radiographic, histological and immunohistochemical healing features than the positive control, especially in non-contaminated subdivisions, that significantly showed better features than the contaminated subdivisions (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The use CGF and PRF as a matrix beneath MTA in FP repair in dog's teeth is promising as it could increase hard and soft tissue regeneration in non-contaminated and contaminated perforations. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The repair of FP is challenging especially when associated with contaminated inter-radicular bone loss. Radiographic, histological and immunohistochemical comprehensive evaluation of the root and surrounding attachment apparatus response to different perforation repair protocols could give a predictable clinical outcome.

Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency Type B Patient-Derived Liver Organoids Reveals Altered Lysosomal Gene Expression and Lipid Homeostasis. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:12645.

Abstract
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) or Niemann-Pick disease type A (NPA), type B (NPB) and type A/B (NPA/B), is a rare lysosomal storage disease characterized by progressive accumulation of sphingomyelin (SM) in the liver, lungs, bone marrow and, in severe cases, neurons. A disease model was established by generating liver organoids from a NPB patient carrying the p.Arg610del variant in the SMPD1 gene. Liver organoids were characterized by transcriptomic and lipidomic analysis. We observed altered lipid homeostasis in the patient-derived organoids showing the predictable increase in sphingomyelin (SM), together with cholesterol esters (CE) and triacylglycerides (TAG), and a reduction in phosphatidylcholine (PC) and cardiolipins (CL). Analysis of lysosomal gene expression pointed to 24 downregulated genes, including SMPD1, and 26 upregulated genes that reflect the lysosomal stress typical of the disease. Altered genes revealed reduced expression of enzymes that could be involved in the accumulation in the hepatocytes of sphyngoglycolipids and glycoproteins, as well as upregulated genes coding for different glycosidases and cathepsins. Lipidic and transcriptome changes support the use of hepatic organoids as ideal models for ASMD investigation.

Abstract
Giant cells (GCs) are thought to originate from the fusion of monocytic lineage cells and arise amid multiple backgrounds. To compare GCs of different origins, we immunohistochemically characterised the GCs of reactive and neoplastic lesions (n = 47). We studied the expression of 15 molecules including HLA class II molecules those relevant to the cell cycle, bone metabolism and lineage affiliation. HLA-DR was detectable in the GCs of sarcoidosis, sarcoid-like lesions, tuberculosis, and foreign body granuloma. Cyclin D1 was expressed by the GCs of neoplastic lesions as well as the GCs of bony callus, fibroid epulis, and brown tumours. While cyclin E was detected in the GCs of all lesions, p16 and p21 showed a heterogeneous expression pattern. RANK was expressed by the GCs of all lesions except sarcoid-like lesions and xanthogranuloma. All GCs were RANK-L-negative, and the GCs of all lesions were osteoprotegerin-positive. Osteonectin was limited to the GCs of chondroblastoma. Osteopontin and TRAP were detected in the GCs of all lesions except xanthogranuloma. RUNX2 was heterogeneously expressed in the reactive and neoplastic cohort. The GCs of all lesions except foreign body granuloma expressed CD68, and all GCs were CD163- and langerin-negative. This profiling points to a functional diversity of GCs despite their similar morphology.

Abstract
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5 (TRAP5) is an enzyme that is highly expressed in activated macrophages and osteoclasts and plays important biological functions in mammalian immune defense systems. In the study, we investigated the functions of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5b from Oreochromis niloticus (OnTRAP5b). The OnTRAP5b gene has an open reading frame of 975 bp, which encodes a mature peptide consisting of 302 amino acids with a molecular weight of 33.448 kDa. The OnTRAP5b protein contains a metallophosphatase domain with metal binding and active sites. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that OnTRAP5b is clustered with TRAP5b of teleost fish and shares a high amino acid sequence similarity with other TRAP5b in teleost fish (61.73-98.15%). Tissues expression analysis showed that OnTRAP5b was most abundant in the liver and was also widely expressed in other tissues. Upon challenge with Streptococcus agalactiae and Aeromonas hydrophila in vivo and in vitro, the expression of OnTRAP5b was significantly up-regulated. Additionally, the purified recombinant OnTRAP5b ((r)OnTRAP5) protein exhibited optimal phosphatase activity at pH 5.0 and an ideal temperature of 50 °C. The Vmax, Km, and kcat of purified (r)OnTRAP5b were found to be 0.484 μmol × min-1 × mg-1, 2.112 mM, and 0.27 s-1 with respect to pNPP as a substrate, respectively. Its phosphatase activity was differentially affected by metal ions (K+, Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Fe3+) and inhibitors (sodium tartrate, sodium fluoride, and EDTA). Furthermore, (r)OnTRAP5b was found to promote the expression of inflammatory-related genes in head kidney macrophages and induce reactive oxygen expression and phagocytosis. Moreover, OnTRAP5b overexpression and knockdown had a significant effect on bacterial proliferation in vivo. When taken together, our findings suggest that OnTRAP5b plays a significant role in the immune response against bacterial infection in Nile tilapia.

Abstract
The bone resorbing osteoclasts are a complex type of cell essential for in vivo bone remodeling. There is no consensus on medium composition and seeding density for in vitro osteoclastogenesis, despite the importance thereof on osteoclastic differentiation and activity. The aim of this study was to investigate the relative effect of monocyte or peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) seeding density, osteoclastic supplement concentration and priming on the in vitro generation of functional osteoclasts, and to explore and evaluate the usefulness of commonly used markers for osteoclast cultures. Morphology and osteoclast formation were analyzed with fluorescence imaging for tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and integrin β3 (Iβ3). TRAP release was analyzed from supernatant samples, and resorption was analyzed from culture on Corning® Osteo Assay plates. In this study, we have shown that common non-standardized culturing conditions of monocyte or PBMCs had a significant effect on the in vitro generation of functional osteoclasts. We showed how increased osteoclastic supplement concentrations supported osteoclastic differentiation and resorption but not TRAP release, while priming resulted in increased TRAP release as well. Increased monocyte seeding densities resulted in more and large TRAP positive bi-nuclear cells, but not directly in more multinucleated osteoclasts, resorption or TRAP release. Increasing PBMC seeding densities resulted in more and larger osteoclasts and more resorption, although resorption was disproportionally low compared to the monocyte seeding density experiment. Exploration of commonly used markers for osteoclast cultures demonstrated that Iβ3 staining was an excellent and specific osteoclast marker in addition to TRAP staining, while supernatant TRAP measurements could not accurately predict osteoclastic resorptive activity. With improved understanding of the effect of seeding density and osteoclastic supplement concentration on osteoclasts, experiments yielding higher numbers of functional osteoclasts can ultimately improve our knowledge of osteoclasts, osteoclastogenesis, bone remodeling and bone diseases.

Abstract
Myelofibrosis is a progressive bone marrow malignancy associated with monocytosis, and is believed to promote the pathological remodelling of the extracellular matrix. Here we show that the mechanical properties of myelofibrosis, namely the liquid-to-solid properties (viscoelasticity) of the bone marrow, contribute to aberrant differentiation of monocytes. Human monocytes cultured in stiff, elastic hydrogels show proinflammatory polarization and differentiation towards dendritic cells, as opposed to those cultured in a viscoelastic matrix. This mechanically induced cell differentiation is blocked by inhibiting a myeloid-specific isoform of phosphoinositide 3-kinase, PI3K-γ. We further show that murine bone marrow with myelofibrosis has a significantly increased stiffness and unveil a positive correlation between myelofibrosis grading and viscoelasticity. Treatment with a PI3K-γ inhibitor in vivo reduced frequencies of monocyte and dendritic cell populations in murine bone marrow with myelofibrosis. Moreover, transcriptional changes driven by viscoelasticity are consistent with transcriptional profiles of myeloid cells in other human fibrotic diseases. These results demonstrate that a fibrotic bone marrow niche can physically promote a proinflammatory microenvironment.

Acid and Alkaline Phosphatases Specific activities and Expression as Biomarkers in Brain Tumor Grading and Correlation of Anaplastic Oligodendroglioma G-III to Meningiomas G-I among Brain Tumors and their primary culture. J Chem Neuroanat 2022; 125:102140. [PMID: 35914649 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchemneu.2022.102140] [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: 12/16/2021] [Revised: 07/21/2022] [Accepted: 07/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acid Phosphatase (ACP) and Alkaline Phosphatases (ALP) are hydrolases that remove phosphate groups from protein and nucleic acid respectively for regulation of cell function from ACP as lysosomal defence function and ALP membrane-bound as a barrier of the cell. The ACP and ALP-specific activities of Meningiomas (n=75) and gliomas (n=81) were compared among brain tumors, normal brain, and derived primary cell culture. METHODS Total Protein and Phosphatases assays estimated by Spectrophotometer and Native PAGE Gel Electrophoresis. Brain tumor and primary explant lysosome studies were performed with an electron microscope. RESULTS Average ACP specific activity exhibited 9.32617 ± 4.1144 for meningiomas (n=55) and 5.91± 5.8305 for gliomas (n=60) respectively as compared to normal brain 7.104 ± 1.33 (n=120) nm/min/mg of protein. Average ALP exhibited 37.1862 ± 39.91 (n=36) for meningiomas and 5.91±5.83 (n=60) for gliomas respectively as compared to normal brain (n=117) 2.463 ±1.01nm/min/mg of protein. ACP and ALP exhibited higher activities for meningiomas but not for gliomas as compared to normal brain, in contrast, both expressed more activities in the majority of glioma cell lines and lower in meningioma cell lines. Interestingly gliomas exhibited similar average specific activities for ACP and ALP. While GBM IV exhibits lower ALP activities due to cell migration and higher ACP activity correlate too many storage lysosomes from Electron microscopic observation as compared to meningiomas. CONCLUSIONS Higher ALP activities can be surrogate markers from meningiomas G-I, G-II to G-III respectively. However meningiomas G-III are similar to gliomas excluding Anaplastic Oligodendroglioma G- III which is similar to Meningiomas G-I even for cells growth patterns. Therefore, an ALP level in meningiomas indicates complementary diagnosis as antibody-ALP conjugates with anticancer drugs for efficiency in targeting brain tumor reduction.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal interstitial lung disease with limited therapeutic options. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5 (ACP5) performs a variety of functions. However, its role in IPF remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that the levels of ACP5 are increased in IPF patient samples and mice with bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis. In particular, higher levels of ACP5 are present in the sera of IPF patients with a diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbonmonoxide (DLCO) less than 40% of the predicted value. Additionally, Acp5 deficiency protects mice from BLM-induced lung injury and fibrosis coupled with a significant reduction of fibroblast differentiation and proliferation. Mechanistic studies reveal that Acp5 is upregulated by transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in a TGF-β receptor 1 (TGFβR1)/Smad family member 3 (Smad3)-dependent manner, after which Acp5 dephosphorylates p-β-catenin at serine 33 and threonine 41, inhibiting the degradation of β-catenin and subsequently enhancing β-catenin signaling in the nucleus, which promotes the differentiation, proliferation and migration of fibroblast. More importantly, the treatment of mice with Acp5 siRNA-loaded liposomes or Acp5 inhibitor reverses established lung fibrosis. In conclusions, Acp5 is involved in the initiation and progression of pulmonary fibrosis and strategies aimed at silencing or suppressing Acp5 could be considered as potential therapeutic approaches against pulmonary fibrosis. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a fatal lung disease with limited treatment options. Here the authors show that tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5 (Acp5) promotes lung fibrosis by enhancing beta-catenin signaling and that inhibition of Acp5 can reverse stablished pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract
The Cre/Lox system is a powerful tool in the biologist's toolbox, allowing loss-of-function and gain-of-function studies, as well as lineage tracing, through gene recombination in a tissue-specific and inducible manner. Evidence indicates, however, that Cre transgenic lines have a far more nuanced and broader pattern of Cre activity than initially thought, exhibiting "off-target" activity in tissues/cells other than the ones they were originally designed to target. With the goal of facilitating the comparison and selection of optimal Cre lines to be used for the study of gene function, we have summarized in a single manuscript the major sites and timing of Cre activity of the main Cre lines available to target bone mesenchymal stem cells, chondrocytes, osteoblasts, osteocytes, tenocytes, and osteoclasts, along with their reported sites of "off-target" Cre activity. We also discuss characteristics, advantages, and limitations of these Cre lines for users to avoid common risks related to overinterpretation or misinterpretation based on the assumption of strict cell-type specificity or unaccounted effect of the Cre transgene or Cre inducers. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Spondyloenchondrodysplasia (SPENCD) is a rare autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia caused by biallelic mutations in the ACP5 gene that encodes tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP). The extra-osseous phenotype of SPENCD is extremely pleiotropic and is characterized by neurological impairment and immune dysfunction. This phenotype can mimic systemic lupus erythematosus. Herein, we report a child presented with systemic lupus erythematosus-like symptoms, including multisystem inflammation, autoimmunity, and immunodeficiency, but was subsequently diagnosed as SPENCD.

Abstract
The differentiation of distinct leukocyte subsets is governed by lineage-specific growth factors that elicit disparate expression of transcription factors and markers by the developing cell populations. For example, macrophages (Mφs) and granulocytes (Grns) arise from common granulocyte-macrophage progenitors in response to distinct myeloid growth factors. In turn, myelopoiesis of the Xenopus laevis anuran amphibian appears to be unique to other studied vertebrates in several respects while the functional differentiation of amphibian Mφs and Grns from their progenitor cells remains poorly understood. Notably, the expression of colony stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R) or CSF-3R on granulocyte-macrophage progenitors marks their commitment to Mφ- or Grn-lineages, respectively. CSF-1R is activated by the colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) and interleukin (IL-34) cytokines, resulting in morphologically and functionally distinct Mφ cell types. Conversely, CSF-3R is ligated by CSF-3 in a process indispensable for granulopoiesis. Presently, we explore the relationships between X. laevis CSF-1-Mφs, IL-34-Mφs and CSF-3-Grns by examining their expression of key lineage-specific transcription factor and myeloid marker genes as well as their enzymology. Our findings suggest that while the CSF-1- and IL-34-Mφs share some commonalities, the IL-34-Mφs possess transcriptional patterns more akin to the CSF-3-Grns. IL-34-Mφs also possess robust expression of dendritic cell-associated transcription factors and surface marker genes, further underlining the difference between this cell type and the CSF-1-derived frog Mφ subset. Moreover, the three myeloid populations differ in their respective tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, specific- and non-specific esterase activity. Together, this work grants new insights into the developmental relatedness of these three frog myeloid subsets.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are bone resorption cells of myeloid origin. Osteoclast defects can lead to osteopetrosis, a genetic disorder characterized by bone sclerosis for which there is no effective drug treatment. It is known that Pu.1 and Fms are key regulators in myelopoiesis, and their defects in mice can lead to reduced osteoclast numbers and consequent osteopetrosis. Yet how Pu.1 and Fms genetically interact in the development of osteoclasts and the pathogenesis of osteopetrosis is still unclear. Here, we characterized pu.1G242D;fmsj4e1 double-deficient zebrafish, which exhibited a greater deficiency of functional osteoclasts and displayed more severe osteopetrotic symptoms than the pu.1G242D or fmsj4e1 single mutants, suggesting a synergistic function of Pu.1 and Fms in the regulation of osteoclast development. We further demonstrated that Pu.1 plays a dominant role in osteoclastogenesis, whereas Fms plays a dominant role in osteoclast maturation. Importantly, treatment with the drug retinoic acid significantly relieved the different degrees of osteopetrosis symptoms in these models by increasing the number of functional osteoclasts. Thus, we report the development of valuable animal models of osteopetrosis, and our results shed light on drug development for antiosteopetrosis therapy.

Abstract
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5 (TRAP/ACP5) has been shown to involve the development and prognosis of multiple tumors in previous studies; however, the mechanism in lung cancer is still unclear, and thus this study investigated the role of ACP5 in the progression of lung adenocarcinoma. After a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments, we observed that ACP5 expression was increased in lung adenocarcinomas (40/69, 57.97%); importantly, an increased ACP5 level was associated with patient age (p = 0.044) and lymph node metastasis (p = 0.0385). ACP5 overexpression significantly enhanced A549 and NCI-H1975 cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and reduced cell apoptosis. Knocking down the expression of ACP5 could rescue the above cell phenotypes. Furthermore, enhancing ACP5 expression promoted lung adenocarcinoma cell hyperplasia and intrapulmonary metastasis in a mouse model. Additionally, mechanistic studies revealed that ACP5 might regulate p53 phosphorylation at Ser392, thereby enhancing the ubiquitination of p53, which then underwent degradation. Reducing the levels of p53 intensified the transcription of SMAD3, which promotes EMT in lung adenocarcinoma cells. In summary, the present study provides a theoretical basis and important scientific evidence on the key role of ACP5 in lung adenocarcinoma progression by inducing EMT via the regulation of p53/SMAD3 signaling.

Impact of Periprosthetic Fibroblast-Like Cells on Osteoclastogenesis in Co-Culture with Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Varies Depending on Culture System. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:E2583. [PMID: 31130703 PMCID: PMC6567687 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20102583] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2019] [Revised: 05/21/2019] [Accepted: 05/23/2019] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Co-culture studies investigating the role of periprosthetic fibroblasts (PPFs) in inflammatory osteoclastogenesis reveal contrary results, partly showing an osteoprotective function of fibroblasts and high OPG expression in monolayer. These data disagree with molecular analyses of original periosteolytic tissues. In order to find a more reliable model, PPFs were co-cultivated with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in a transwell system and compared to conventional monolayer cultures. The gene expression of key regulators of osteoclastogenesis (macrophage colony-stimulating factor (MCSF), receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANK-L), osteoprotegerin (OPG), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα)) as well as the ability of bone resorption were analyzed. In monolayer co-cultures, PPFs executed an osteoprotective function with high OPG-expression, low RANK-L/OPG ratios, and a resulting inhibition of osteolysis even in the presence of MCSF and RANK-L. For transwell co-cultures, profound changes in gene expression, with a more than hundredfold decrease of OPG and a significant upregulation of TNFα were observed. In conclusion, we were able to show that a change of culture conditions towards a transwell system resulted in a considerably more osteoclastogenic gene expression profile, being closer to findings in original periosteolytic tissues. This study therefore presents an interesting approach for a more reliable in vitro model to examine the role of fibroblasts in periprosthetic osteoclastogenesis in the future.

Abstract
Background: The pro-inflammatory protein chemokine cytokine ligand 3 is well established as a vital regulator of bone resorption and osteoclast stimulation. Aims: To investigate if serum cytokine ligand 3 levels correlated with disease severity in postmenopausal osteoporotic women. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Eighty-two postmenopausal osteoporotic women, 76 postmenopausal non-osteoporotic women, and 80 healthy women of childbearing age were recruited. The total hip, femoral neck, and L1-L4 spine bone mineral density were assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Serum cytokine ligand 3 concentrations were examined using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit. Serum inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and the bone metabolic markers, carboxy-terminal crosslinked and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b were also examined. Scores on both the visual analogue scale and the Oswestry Disability Index were utilized to assess clinical severity. Results: Patients in the postmenopausal osteoporotic group had significantly increased serum cytokine ligand 3 levels compared with those in both the postmenopausal non-osteoporotic group (40.9±15.1 pg/mL vs 24.2±8.7 pg/mL, p<0.001) and control group (40.9±15.1 pg/mL vs 23.9±9.1 pg/mL, p<0.001). Serum cytokine ligand 3 levels negatively correlated with bone mineral density at the total hip (r=-0.345, p=0.002), femoral neck (r=-0.329, p=0.003), and L1-L4 lumbar spine (r=-0.354, p=0.001) and positively correlated with visual analogue scale scores (r=0.413, p<0.001) and the Oswestry Disability Index (r=0.360, p<0.001). Moreover, serum cytokine ligand 3 levels were correlated with increased tumor necrosis factor-alpha (r=0.305, p=0.005), interleukin-6 (r=0.288, p=0.008), terminal crosslinked and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (r=0.371, p<0.001), and carboxy-terminal crosslinked (r=0.317, p=0.004) levels. All correlations were still significant after adjusting for both body mass index and age. Conclusion: Chemokine cytokine ligand 3 may be a useful biomarker that can be used to predict disease severity of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Therapies targeting cytokine ligand 3 and its related signaling pathways to inhibit and delay the osteoclastogenesis process deserve further investigation.

Abstract
Using bone biopsy samples, we examined whether osteolytic cytokine profile is changed in situ in bone samples of metastatic multiple myeloma, and whether this creates an environment of lysis within the bone to which it has spread. This also produces the clinical features of increased circulating plasma calcium, and deleterious effects on the kidney.Using multiple myeloma biopsy and cell extracts from bone metastatic lesions, Bruton kinase, a tyrosine kinase, was demonstrated to be translocated to the membrane. Several transcription factors were upregulated included activin A, inflammatory transcription activator like such as nuclear factor kappa B, and specific bone lytic factor such as receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand that is known to drive osteoclastogenesis as opposed to a osteogenic environment. The transcript for Bruton kinase was also elevated in its expression.Cytokines that support osteolytic activity such as a proliferation-inducing ligand, RANTES (regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted), interleukin-8, and activin A were upregulated. Tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclastic enzymatic activity was significantly elevated in the bone microenvironment in metastatic multiple myeloma. Several tyrosine kinase inhibitors, including inhibitors for Bruton kinase such as ibrutinib have been developed. The results of the present study provide evidence that multiple myeloma possess signal transduction mechanisms to support a bone lytic environment.The results provide a preliminary molecular basis to design specific inhibitors for management of bone metastasis of multiple myeloma.

Abstract
The enzyme tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP, two isoforms 5a and 5b) is highly expressed in alveolar macrophages, but its function there is unclear and potent selective inhibitors of TRAP are required to assess functional aspects of the protein. We found higher TRAP activity/expression in lungs of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma compared to controls and more TRAP activity in lungs of mice with experimental COPD or asthma. Stimuli related to asthma and/or COPD were tested for their capacity to induce TRAP. Receptor activator of NF-κb ligand (RANKL) and Xanthine/Xanthine Oxidase induced TRAP mRNA expression in mouse macrophages, but only RANKL also induced TRAP activity in mouse lung slices. Several Au(III) coordination compounds were tested for their ability to inhibit TRAP activity and [Au(4,4′-dimethoxy-2,2′-bipyridine)Cl2][PF6] (AubipyOMe) was found to be the most potent inhibitor of TRAP5a and 5b activity reported to date (IC50 1.3 and 1.8 μM respectively). AubipyOMe also inhibited TRAP activity in murine macrophage and human lung tissue extracts. In a functional assay with physiological TRAP substrate osteopontin, AubipyOMe inhibited mouse macrophage migration over osteopontin-coated membranes. In conclusion, higher TRAP expression/activity are associated with COPD and asthma and TRAP is involved in regulating macrophage migration.

Osteoclast profile of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw secondary to bisphosphonate therapy: a comparison with osteoradionecrosis and osteomyelitis. J Transl Med 2017; 15:128. [PMID: 28587628 PMCID: PMC5461625 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-017-1230-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2017] [Accepted: 05/30/2017] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw secondary to bisphosphonate therapy [MRONJ (BP)] is characterized by non-healing exposed bone in the maxillofacial region. The pathogenesis of MRONJ (BP) is not fully understood. Giant, hypernucleated, inactive osteoclasts were found in MRONJ (BP) tissues, which indicated that accelerated cell–cell fusion might play a role. Dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP) is associated with the cell–cell fusion of osteoclasts and precursor cells. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) is essential for osteoclastic bone resorption. The cell–cell fusion, as part of the osteoclastogenesis, and the resorptive activity can determine the morphology of osteoclasts. This study analyzed jaw bone from patients with MRONJ (BP), osteomyelitis (OM) and osteoradionecrosis (ORN) because a comparison with the osteoclast profiles of OM and ORN is essential for characterizing the osteoclast profile of MRONJ (BP). Methods Formalin-fixed routine jaw bone specimens from 70 patients [MRONJ (BP) n = 30; OM: n = 15, ORN: n = 15, control: n = 10] were analyzed retrospectively for osteoclast quantity, morphology and the expression of TRAP and DC-STAMP. The specimens were processed for hematoxylin and eosin staining (H&E), histochemistry (TRAP) and immunohistochemistry (anti-DC-STAMP) and were analyzed via virtual microscopy. Results The quantity, diameter and nuclearity of osteoclasts were significantly higher in MRONJ (BP) specimens than in OM, ORN and control specimens. Giant, hypernucleated osteoclasts were detected in MRONJ (BP) specimens only. Osteoclastic TRAP expression was lower in MRONJ (BP) and ORN specimens than in OM and control specimens. The DC-STAMP expression of osteoclasts and mononuclear cells was significantly higher in MRONJ (BP) and ORN specimens than in OM and control specimens. Conclusions This study indicates that the osteoclast profile of MRONJ (BP) is characterized by osteoclast inactivation and a high cell–cell fusion rate; however, the presence of giant, hypernucleated osteoclasts cannot be attributed to increased DC-STAMP-triggered cell–cell fusion alone. The incidental characterization of the osteoclast profiles of OM and ORN revealed differences that might facilitate the histopathological differentiation of these diseases from MRONJ (BP), which is essential because their therapies are somewhat different.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mutations in the ACP5 gene, which encodes tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), cause the immuno-osseous disorder spondyloenchondrodysplasia, which includes as disease features systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and a type I interferon (IFN) signature. Our aims were to identify TRAP substrates, determine the consequences of TRAP deficiency in immune cells, and assess whether ACP5 mutations are enriched in sporadic cases of SLE. METHODS Interaction between TRAP and its binding partners was tested by a yeast 2-hybrid screening, confocal microscopy, and immunoprecipitation/Western blotting. TRAP knockdown was performed using small interfering RNA. Phosphorylation of osteopontin (OPN) was analyzed by mass spectrometry. Nucleotide sequence analysis of ACP5 was performed by Sanger sequencing or next-generation sequencing. RESULTS TRAP and OPN colocalized and interacted in human macrophages and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDCs). TRAP dephosphorylated 3 serine residues on specific OPN peptides. TRAP knockdown resulted in increased OPN phosphorylation and increased nuclear translocation of IRF7 and P65, with resultant heightened expression of IFN-stimulated genes and IL6 and TNF following Toll-like receptor 9 stimulation. An excess of heterozygous ACP5 missense variants was observed in SLE compared to controls (P = 0.04), and transfection experiments revealed a significant reduction in TRAP activity in a number of variants. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that TRAP and OPN colocalize and that OPN is a substrate for TRAP in human immune cells. TRAP deficiency in PDCs leads to increased IFNα production, providing at least a partial explanation for how ACP5 mutations cause lupus in the context of spondyloenchondrodysplasia. Detection of ACP5 missense variants in a lupus cohort suggests that impaired TRAP functioning may increase susceptibility to sporadic lupus.

Abstract
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) is essential for elimination of Staphylococcus aureus, the main infectious agent responsible for osteomyelitis. This in vitro study investigated uptake and processing of fluorescence-labeled S. aureus by human osteoclasts and dendritic cells. The cells were stained for TRAP and the acidic compartment using a fluorescence-based protocol. In dendritic cells, TRAP and bacteria were colocalized. In osteoclasts, there was no colocalization of bacteria, TRAP, or the acidic compartment, indicating that there are three distinct vesicular compartments: the apical phago-lysosomal compartment, the basal secretory compartment, and the basolateral transcytotic compartment. Dissociation of the TRAP-containing transcytotic vesicles from the apical phago-lysosomal compartment may restrain osteoclasts from eliminating S. aureus.

Osteoblast-derived WNT16 represses osteoclastogenesis and prevents cortical bone fragility fractures. Nat Med 2014; 20:1279-88. [PMID: 25306233 DOI: 10.1038/nm.3654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 250] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2014] [Accepted: 07/10/2014] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
The WNT16 locus is a major determinant of cortical bone thickness and nonvertebral fracture risk in humans. The disability, mortality and costs caused by osteoporosis-induced nonvertebral fractures are enormous. We demonstrate here that Wnt16-deficient mice develop spontaneous fractures as a result of low cortical thickness and high cortical porosity. In contrast, trabecular bone volume is not altered in these mice. Mechanistic studies revealed that WNT16 is osteoblast derived and inhibits human and mouse osteoclastogenesis both directly by acting on osteoclast progenitors and indirectly by increasing expression of osteoprotegerin (Opg) in osteoblasts. The signaling pathway activated by WNT16 in osteoclast progenitors is noncanonical, whereas the pathway activated in osteoblasts is both canonical and noncanonical. Conditional Wnt16 inactivation revealed that osteoblast-lineage cells are the principal source of WNT16, and its targeted deletion in osteoblasts increases fracture susceptibility. Thus, osteoblast-derived WNT16 is a previously unreported key regulator of osteoclastogenesis and fracture susceptibility. These findings open new avenues for the specific prevention or treatment of nonvertebral fractures, a substantial unmet medical need.

Extracellular ATP decreases trophoblast invasion, spiral artery remodeling and immune cells in the mesometrial triangle in pregnant rats. Placenta 2014; 35:587-95. [PMID: 24953164 DOI: 10.1016/j.placenta.2014.05.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2014] [Revised: 05/24/2014] [Accepted: 05/29/2014] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Preeclampsia is characterized by deficient trophoblast invasion and spiral artery remodeling, a process governed by inflammatory cells. High levels of the danger signal extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) have been found in women with preeclampsia and infusion of ATP in pregnant rats induced preeclampsia-like symptoms such as albuminuria and placental ischemia. We hypothesized that ATP inhibits trophoblast invasion and spiral artery remodeling and affects macrophages and natural killer (NK) cells present in the rat mesometrial triangle. METHODS Pregnant rats were infused with ATP or saline (control) on day 14 of pregnancy. Rats were sacrificed on day 15, 17 or 20 of pregnancy and placentas with mesometrial triangle were collected. Sections were stained for trophoblast cells, α-smooth muscle actin (spiral artery remodeling), NK cells and various macrophage populations. Expression of various cytokines in the mesometrial triangle was analyzed using real-time RT-PCR. RESULTS ATP infusion decreased interstitial trophoblast invasion on day 17 and spiral artery remodeling on day 17 and 20, increased activated tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive macrophages on day 15, decreased NK cells on day 17 and 20, and decreased inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)-positive and CD206-positive macrophages and TNF-α and IL-33 expression at the end of pregnancy (day 20). DISCUSSION Interstitial trophoblast invasion and spiral artery remodeling in the rat mesometrial triangle were decreased by infusion of ATP. These ATP-induced modifications were preceded by an increase in activated TRAP-positive macrophages and coincided with NK cell numbers, suggesting that they are involved. CONCLUSION Trophoblast invasion and spiral artery remodeling may be inhibited by ATP-induced activated macrophages and decreased NK cells in the mesometrial triangle in rat pregnancy.

Caveolae-mediated endocytosis of the glucosaminoglycan-interacting adipokine tartrate resistant acid phosphatase 5a in adipocyte progenitor lineage cells. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2014; 1843:495-507. [PMID: 24316135 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2013.11.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2013] [Revised: 11/22/2013] [Accepted: 11/25/2013] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Adipogenesis depends on growth factors controlling proliferation/differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Membrane binding and endocytosis of growth factors are often coupled to receptor activation and downstream signaling leading to specific cellular responses. The novel adipokine tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) 5a exhibits a growth factor-like effect on MSCs and pre-adipocytes and induces hyperplastic obesity in vivo. However its molecular interaction with pre-adipocytes remains unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate membrane interaction of TRAP and its endocytosis routes in pre-adipocytes. Confocal and/or electron microscopy were used to detect TRAP in untreated or TRAP 5a/b treated pre-adipocytes under conditions that allow or inhibit endocytosis in combination with co-staining of endocytotic vesicles. TRAP interaction with heparin/heparan sulfate was verified by gel filtration. It could be shown that TRAP 5a, but not 5b, binds to the membrane of pre-adipocytes where it co-localizes with heparin-sulfate proteoglycan glypican-4. Also in vitro, TRAP 5a exhibited affinity for both heparin and heparan sulfate with heparin inhibiting its enzyme activity. Upon caveolae-mediated endocytosis of saturating levels of TRAP 5a, TRAP 5a co-localized intracellularly with glypican-4 and late endosomal marker Rab-7 positive vesicles. The protein was also located in multivesicular bodies (MVBs) but did not co-localize with lysosomal marker LAMP-1. TRAP 5a endocytosis was also detectable in pre-osteoblasts, but not fibroblasts, embryonic MSCs or mature adipocytes. These results indicate that TRAP 5a exhibits binding to cell surface, endocytosis and affinity to glucosaminoglycans (GAGs) in pre-adipocyte and pre-osteoblast lineage cells in a manner similar to other heparin-binding growth factors.

Abstract
Background Tissue-infiltrating multinucleated giant cells (MNGs) within geographic necrosis are pathologic hallmarks of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA). However, the origin, phenotype, and function of these cells in GPA remain undefined. Methodology/Principal Findings MNG phenotype in GPA lung tissue was examined by immunohistochemistry using antibody directed against cathepsin K and calcitonin-receptor. Tartrate-resistant-acid-phosphatase (TRAP) expression was assessed using enzymatic color reaction. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 13 GPA patients (5 with localized and 8 with systemic disease) and 11 healthy controls were cultured in the presence of RANKL and M-CSF for 9 days, and TRAP+ MNGs containing 3 or more nuclei were identified. GPA lung granulomata contained numerous MNGs that expressed osteoclastic TRAP and cathepsin K but not calcitonin receptors. In the presence of RANKL and M-CSF, PBMCs of GPA patients formed significantly more MNGs than healthy controls (114±29 MNG/well vs. 22±9 MNG/well, P = 0.02). In a subgroup analysis, patients with systemic disease generated significantly more MNGs than patients with localized disease (161±35 MNG/well vs. 39±27 MNG/well, P<0.01) or healthy controls (P<0.01). MNG production did not differ between localized GPA and control subjects (P = 0.96). Conclusions/Significance MNGs in granulomata in the GPA lung express osteoclastic enzymes TRAP and cathepsin K. GPA patients have a higher propensity to form TRAP+ MNGs from peripheral blood than healthy controls. These data suggest that (i) the tendency to form MNGs is a component of the GPA phenotype itself, and (ii) that lesional MNGs might participate in the destructive process through their proteolytic enzymes.

Abstract
Adaptation of a rat dentoalveolar complex was illustrated using various imaging modalities. Micro-X-ray computed tomography for 3D modeling, combined with complementary techniques, including image processing, scanning electron microscopy, fluorochrome labeling, conventional histology (H&E, TRAP), and immunohistochemistry (RANKL, OPN) elucidated the dynamic nature of bone, the periodontal ligament-space, and cementum in the rat periodontium. Tomography and electron microscopy illustrated structural adaptation of calcified tissues at a higher resolution. Ongoing biomineralization was analyzed using fluorochrome labeling, and by evaluating attenuation profiles using virtual sections from 3D tomographies. Osteoclastic distribution as a function of anatomical location was illustrated by combining histology, immunohistochemistry, and tomography. While tomography and SEM provided past resorption-related events, future adaptive changes were deduced by identifying matrix biomolecules using immunohistochemistry. Thus, a dynamic picture of the dentoalveolar complex in rats was illustrated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current data suggest that parathyroid hormone (PTH)-related peptide (PTHrP) domains other than the N-terminal PTH-like domain contribute to its role as an endogenous bone anabolic factor. PTHrP-107-139 inhibits bone resorption, a fact which has precluded an unequivocal demonstration of its possible anabolic action in vivo. We thus sought to characterize the osteogenic effects of this peptide using a mouse model of diabetic low-turnover osteopaenia. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH PTHrP-107-139 was administered to streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice, with or without bone marrow ablation, for 13 days. Osteopaenia was confirmed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and microcomputed tomography analysis. Histological analysis was performed on paraffin-embedded bone tissue sections by haematoxylin/eosin and Masson's staining, and tartrate-resistent acid phosphatase immunohistochemistry. Mouse bone marrow stromal cells and osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured in normal and/or high glucose (HG) medium. Osteogenic and adipogenic markers were assessed by real-time PCR, and PTHrP and the PTH(1) receptor protein expression by Western blot analysis. KEY RESULTS PTHrP-107-139 reversed the alterations in bone structure and osteoblast function, and also promoted bone healing after marrow ablation without affecting the number of osteoclast-like cells in diabetic mice. This peptide also reversed the high-glucose-induced changes in osteogenic differentiation in both bone marrow stromal cells and the more differentiated MC3T3-E1 cells. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS These findings demonstrate that PTHrP-107-139 promotes bone formation in diabetic mice. This mouse model and in vitro cell cultures allowed us to identify various anabolic effects of this peptide in this scenario.

Clin Chim Acta 2011; 412:963-9. [PMID: 21300043 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2011.01.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2010] [Revised: 01/24/2011] [Accepted: 01/29/2011] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to determine the association between serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5a (TRACP5a) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. METHODS Four hundred patients were enrolled including, 291 asymptomatic subjects grouped by the number of traditional risk factors, 36 patients undergoing cardiac arteriography, 34 undergoing percutaneous cardiac intervention, and 39 with acute myocardial infarction. Serum was collected at baseline and, in arteriograpy and intervention groups, periodically for 1 week afterward. In addition to laboratory and clinical evaluation for risk assessment, serum TRACP5a, C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined. RESULTS All biomarkers rose with increasing CVD risk. Only serum TRACP5a, logCRP and cholesterol were elevated in symptomatic patients. Serum TRACP5a was higher in men and correlated with age, logCRP, logIL-6 and log-triglycerides, and in symptomatic patients, with the number of diseased coronary arteries. IL-6 and CRP showed acute phase responses, whereas TRACP5a did not change over 1 week after arteriography or intervention. After adjustment for all other variables and risk factors, TRACP5a and logCRP were the only biomarkers to associate with symptomatic disease. TRACP5a was more specific than CRP to predict myocardial infarction among all subjects. CONCLUSIONS Serum TRACP5a is a macrophage-derived inflammation marker associated with CVD risk, and with coronary vessel disease and its severity and may be a useful marker for screening and assessment of CVD risk.

Abstract
We studied ten individuals from eight families showing features consistent with the immuno-osseus dysplasia spondyloenchondrodysplasia (SPENCD). Of particular note was the diverse spectrum of autoimmune phenotypes observed in these patients, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Sjögren's syndrome, haemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, hypothyroidism, inflammatory myositis, Raynaud's disease, and vitiligo. Haplotype data indicated the disease gene to be on chromosome 19p13 and linkage analysis yielded a combined multipoint lod score of 3.6. Sequencing of the ACP5 gene, encoding tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), identified biallelic mutations in each of the patients studied, and in vivo testing confirmed a loss of expressed protein. All eight patients assayed demonstrated elevated serum interferon alpha activity, and gene expression profiling in whole blood defined a type I interferon signature. Our findings reveal a previously unrecognised link between TRAP activity and interferon metabolism, and highlight the importance of type I interferon in the genesis of autoimmunity.

Abstract
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) exists in human serum as two major isoforms, monomeric 5a and proteolytically processed enzymatically active 5b. The 5b isoform is secreted by osteoclasts and has recently been advocated as a serum marker for bone metastasis in breast cancer patients. The 5a isoform, on the other hand, is not bone-derived and has been proposed to be a marker of activated macrophages and chronic inflammation. In this study, expression of TRAP protein and enzymatic activity in bone metastases from different primary sites was examined. TRAP activity was high in bone metastases from prostate cancer, intermediate in breast cancer, and low in lung and kidney cancers. The partially purified TRAP from breast cancer bone metastasis samples exhibited the enzymatic characteristics of purple acid phosphatase. Both 5a and 5b isoforms were expressed in bone metastases of different histogenetic origins, i.e. prostate, breast, lung and kidney, and also a novel previously unreported 42 kDa variant of the TRAP 5a isoform was identified in bone metastases. This novel TRAP 5a isoform was absent in human bone, indicating that the 42 kDa variant is specific to metastatic cancer tissue. Immunohistochemistry revealed that metastatic cancer cells were the predominant source of TRAP 5a, whereas tumor-associated macrophages and occasionally multinucleated giant cells in the tumor stroma preferentially expressed the proteolytically processed TRAP 5b variant. Our results indicate the presence of a previously unstudied variant of monomeric TRAP 5a in cancer cells, which may have functional and diagnostic implications. Moreover, the presence of TRAP-positive macrophages in bone metastases could, together with cancer cells and osteoclasts, contribute to the elevated levels of serum TRAP activity observed in patients with bone metastases.

Serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP5b) activity as a biomarker for bone metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer patients. Clin Chim Acta 2010; 412:181-5.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnosis and follow-up of bone metastasis (BMet) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients usually rely on symptoms and image studies. A serum marker of bone resorption may improve the quality of treatment in such patients. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP5b) is a specific marker for osteoclasts and we proposed it can be used as a marker of BMet in NSCLC patients. METHODS In November 2002 till August 2008 serum samples were obtained from 141 newly diagnosed stage IIIA, IIIB or IV NSCLC patients and 41 normal subjects. All patients received baseline bone scintinography examination and evaluation of clinical symptoms as a standard of BMet diagnosis. Patients were divided into 2 groups by having BMet (Group I, n = 72) or not (Group II, n = 69). An in-house immunoassay using a TRACP-specific monoclonal antibody, 14G6, was used to measure the serum TRACP5b activity at pH 6.1. RESULTS The mean serum TRACP5b activities of Group I, Group II and normal subjects were 3.50 ± 2.2 3U/l, 2.09 ± 0.72 U/l and 2.33 ± 0.52 U/l, respectively. After adjusting for age, stage, gender, and histology in a generalized linear model, Group I has significantly higher TRACP5b activity than Group II (p < 0.001). The receiver operating characteristic analysis established a cutoff value of 2.551 U/l to identify BMet in NSCLC patients with a sensitivity of 63.9% and a specificity of 76.8%. TRACP5b activity declined in patients who responded to treatment (p = 0.047), and elevated in patients who developed new BMet (p = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Serum TRACP5b activity test is a potentially useful adjunct in diagnosing and monitoring BMet in NSCLC. Further study is warranted to establish its real value in diagnosis and monitoring of BMet in NSCLC patients.

Abstract
In a cohort study, the role of the active tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP 5b), a marker of bone-resorbing osteoclasts, for the assessment of loosening after total hip arthroplasty (THA), was analyzed, as well as its correlation with osteolysis and multinucleated cell appearance in the retrievals. Eighty THA patients, who went consecutively to the orthopedic department, were asked to participate, and 54 accepted and were enrolled in the study. Finally, 46 subjects were analyzed, clinical-radiographic evaluation was considered the gold standard, serum TRACP 5b was blindly measured, and a cut-off was obtained, by performing a ROC Curve. Based on the gold standard, patients were split by 19 stable and 27 loosened subjects, and results were matched. TRACP 5b was significantly higher in loosened patients than in stable ones (p < 0.001). A good specificity (89.5%), positive predictive value (90.0%), and likelihood ratio (6.33) were calculated, that provided strong evidence of loosening with TRACP 5b levels higher than the cut-off. Moreover, TRACP 5b and osteolysis (Fisher's exact test, p = 0.03) were found significantly correlated. TRACP 5b has been proven a reliable marker, specifically related to resorbing-multinucleated cells, to ascertain late loosening in THA, and could support standard procedures, if confirmed by performing prospective studies.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs), mononuclear cells that initiate immune responses, and osteoclasts (OCs), multinucleated bone-resorbing cells, are hematopoietic cells derived from monocytic precursor cells. Using in vitro generated dendritic cells, we previously showed that human and murine DCs could transdifferentiate into resorbing osteoclasts in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL). In this study we globally compared by transcriptomic profiling this new osteoclast differentiation pathway from DCs with the canonical differentiation pathway from monocytes. DNA chip data revealed that starting from two very distinct cell types, treatment with M-CSF and RANKL generated two highly similar types of osteoclast. In particular, DC-derived osteoclasts expressed all the characteristic marker genes of monocyte-derived osteoclasts. Two major molecular events could be observed during osteoclastogenesis: downregulation of a large set of monocyte or DC specific markers, together with upregulation of characteristic osteoclast marker genes. Most interestingly, our transcriptomic data showed a closer molecular profile between DCs and OCs than between monocytes and OCs. Our data establish DCs as a new osteoclast precursor able to generate OCs more efficiently than monocytes.

Abstract
Central to modern Histochemistry and Cell Biology stands the need for visualization of cellular and molecular processes. In the past several years, a variety of techniques has been achieved bridging traditional light microscopy, fluorescence microscopy and electron microscopy with powerful software-based post-processing and computer modeling. Researchers now have various tools available to investigate problems of interest from bird's- up to worm's-eye of view, focusing on tissues, cells, proteins or finally single molecules. Applications of new approaches in combination with well-established traditional techniques of mRNA, DNA or protein analysis have led to enlightening and prudent studies which have paved the way toward a better understanding of not only physiological but also pathological processes in the field of cell biology. This review is intended to summarize articles standing for the progress made in "histo-biochemical" techniques and their manifold applications.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the cellular and molecular expression of tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) as a marker of activated macrophages in macrophage dependent dextran sulphate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in rats. In normal colon, TRAP+/CX(3)CR(1)+ macrophages were located in the upper part of the lamina propria. In the early stage (day 1-3) of acute colitis prior to histopathological changes, induction of the cytokines TNFalpha, IL-12 and IFN gamma occurred concomitant with increased mRNA and enzyme activity of TRAP along with a slight increase of TRAP immunolabelling in macrophages of the upper lamina propria, suggesting induction of TRAP in resident macrophages. Among these cytokines, TNFalpha up-regulated TRAP expression in the RAW 264.7 monocyte/macrophage cell line. In a later phase (day 7) with fulminant colitis, a massive infiltration of macrophages including recruited TRAP+/CCR2+ cells was observed also in the lower part of the lamina propria as well as in the submuscular layer. Additionally, differentiated cellular expression of pro- and mature TRAP also suggest that mucosal macrophages in the lower part of lamina propria bordering the sub-mucosa provide a source of replenishment of macrophages situated in the upper lamina propria. In conclusion, induction of TRAP provides an early sign of macrophage responsiveness in DSS induced colitis.

Abstract
Interleukin 4 (IL-4) inhibits receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation and functional activity in a STAT6-dependent manner. IL-4 down-regulates expression of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) in mature osteoclasts. To determine whether IL-4 regulates TRAP promoter activity, RAW264.7 cells were transfected with a TRAP promoter-luciferase reporter. Treatment with IL-4 alone modestly enhanced TRAP luciferase activity. However, IL-4 suppressed the ability of RANKL to up-regulate TRAP-luciferase activity, suggesting that IL-4 has multiple effects on TRAP transcription. IL-4 also reduced the RANKL-induced association of RNA polymerase II with the TRAP gene in osteoclasts. The TRAP promoter contains a STAT6-binding motif, and STAT6 bound to the endogenous TRAP promoter after IL-4 treatment. To determine the impact of STAT6 binding, we transfected cells with STAT6VT, a constitutively active STAT6 mutant. STAT6VT alone up-regulated TRAP-luciferase activity; this effect was abrogated by mutating the STAT6 binding site in the minimal TRAP promoter. STAT6VT did not inhibit the potent up-regulation of TRAP promoter activity caused by overexpression of NFATc1, PU.1, and microphthalmia transcription factor, downstream targets of macrophage colony-stimulating factor and RANKL. IL-4 down-regulated the expression of c-Fos and NFATc1 in mature osteoclasts. Knockdown of NFATc1 by short interfering RNA caused TRAP expression to be down-regulated, and ectopic expression of NFATc1 abrogated the IL-4-induced down-regulation of TRAP. These results suggest that STAT6 plays two distinct roles in TRAP expression. The IL-4-induced activation of STAT6 mediates suppression of the RANKL-induced TRAP promoter activity indirectly by inhibiting NFATc1 expression. However, in the absence of RANKL and osteoclast differentiation, STAT6 binds the TRAP promoter after IL-4 treatment and directly enhances TRAP expression.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is a process of continuous resorption and formation/mineralization carried out by osteoclasts and osteoblasts, which, along with osteocytes, comprise the bone multicellular unit (BMU). A key component of the BMU is the bone remodeling compartment (BRC), isolated from the marrow by a canopy of osteoblast-like lining cells. Although much progress has been made regarding the cytokine-dependent and hormonal regulation of bone remodeling, less attention has been placed on the role of extracellular pH (pH(e)). Osteoclastic bone resorption occurs at acidic pH(e). Furthermore, osteoclasts can be regarded as epithelial-like cells, due to their polarized structure and ability to form a seal against bone, isolating the lacunar space. The major ecto-phosphatases of osteoclasts and osteoblasts, acid and alkaline phosphatases, both have ATPase activity with pH optima several units different from neutrality. Furthermore, osteoclasts and osteoblasts express plasma membrane purinergic P2 receptors that, upon activation by ATP, accelerate bone osteoclast resorption and impair osteoblast mineralization. We hypothesize that these ecto-phosphatases help regulate [ATP](e) and localized pH(e) at the sites of bone resorption and mineralization by pH-dependent ATP hydrolysis coupled with P2Y-dependent regulation of osteoclast and osteoblast function. Furthermore, osteoclast cellular HCO3(-), formed as a product of lacunar V-ATPase H(+) secretion, is secreted into the BRC, which could elevate BRC pH(e), in turn affecting osteoblast function. We will review the existing data addressing regulation of BRC pH(e), present a hypothesis regarding its regulation, and discuss the hypothesis in the context of the function of proteins that regulate pH(e).

Abstract
It is well established that calcitonin is a potent inhibitor of bone resorption; however, a physiological role for calcitonin acting through its cognate receptor, the calcitonin receptor (CTR), has not been identified. Data from previous genetically modified animal models have recognized a possible role for calcitonin and the CTR in controlling bone formation; however, interpretation of these data are complicated, in part because of their mixed genetic background. Therefore, to elucidate the physiological role of the CTR in calcium and bone metabolism, we generated a viable global CTR knockout (KO) mouse model using the Cre/loxP system, in which the CTR is globally deleted by >94% but <100%. Global CTRKOs displayed normal serum ultrafiltrable calcium levels and a mild increase in bone formation in males, showing that the CTR plays a modest physiological role in the regulation of bone and calcium homeostasis in the basal state in mice. Furthermore, the peak in serum total calcium after calcitriol [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)]-induced hypercalcemia was substantially greater in global CTRKOs compared with controls. These data provide strong evidence for a biological role of the CTR in regulating calcium homeostasis in states of calcium stress.

Abstract
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), once considered to be just a histochemical marker of osteoclasts is now recognised to be a molecule of widespread occurrence with functions in both the skeleton and the immune system. TRAP is expressed by osteoclasts, macrophages, dendritic cells and a number of other cell types. It has a critical role in many biological processes including skeletal development, collagen synthesis and degradation, the mineralisation of bone, cytokine production by macrophages and dendritic cells, macrophage recruitment, dendritic cell maturation and a role in the development of Th1 responses. TRAP is able to degrade skeletal phosphoproteins including osteopontin (OPN), identical to the T-cell cytokine, Eta-1. In this review, we discuss the role of TRAP in bone and immune cells and suggest that TRAP may be implicated in autoimmune disorders regulated by Th1 inflammatory responses as well as certain cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with macrophage infiltration of adipose tissue, which may link adipose inflammation to insulin resistance. However, the impact of inflammatory cells in the pathophysiology of obesity remains unclear. Tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) is an enzyme expressed by subsets of macrophages and osteoclasts that exists either as an enzymatically inactive monomer or as an active, proteolytically processed dimer. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Using mice over expressing TRAP, we show that over-expression of monomeric, but not the dimeric form in adipose tissue leads to early onset spontaneous hyperplastic obesity i.e. many small fat cells. In vitro, recombinant monomeric, but not proteolytically processed TRAP induced proliferation and differentiation of mouse and human adipocyte precursor cells. In humans, monomeric TRAP was highly expressed in the adipose tissue of obese individuals. In both the mouse model and in the obese humans the source of TRAP in adipose tissue was macrophages. In addition, the obese TRAP over expressing mice exhibited signs of a low-grade inflammatory reaction in adipose tissue without evidence of abnormal adipocyte lipolysis, lipogenesis or insulin sensitivity. CONCLUSION Monomeric TRAP, most likely secreted from adipose tissue macrophages, induces hyperplastic obesity with normal adipocyte lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study the effects of estrogen withdrawal on osteoclast number and osteoclast activity in the rat ovariectomy (OVX) model. METHODS We first cultured human CD34+ osteoclast precursor cells on bovine bone slices, allowing them to differentiate into mature resorbing osteoclasts. Secreted tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP 5b) and C-terminal cross-linked telopeptides of type I collagen (CTX) were determined from the culture medium. TRACP 5b correlated strongly with osteoclast number and CTX with osteoclast activity, facilitating their subsequent use in the rat OVX model. An 8 week OVX study was then performed including sham-operated rats receiving vehicle, OVX rats receiving vehicle, and OVX rats receiving 10 microg/kg/day 17 beta-estradiol (E2). Trabecular bone parameters were determined from the tibial metaphysis using peripheral quantitative computed tomography and histomorphometry. Osteoclast number was normalized with bone perimeter (N.Oc/B.Pm) and tissue area (N.Oc/T.Ar, indicating absolute number of osteoclasts). TRACP 5b and CTX were determined from fasting serum samples. RESULTS Trabecular bone parameters indicated substantial bone loss after OVX that was prevented by E2. N.Oc/B.Pm increased after OVX, while N.Oc/T.Ar and TRACP 5b decreased, and TRACP 5b correlated strongly with N.Oc/T.Ar. However, CTX values increased after OVX, and the "resorption index" CTX/TRACP 5b showed more substantial changes than either CTX or TRACP 5b alone. CONCLUSION These results show that TRACP 5b is a reliable marker of osteoclast number, and the index CTX/TRACP 5b is a useful parameter in rat OVX model. The high elevation of CTX/TRACP 5b values by OVX demonstrates that estrogen withdrawal generates high activity of osteoclasts in the rat OVX model.

Abstract
We aimed to histologically elucidate whether bioresorbable plates (DeltaSystem) can induce cortical bone formation, which is essential for long-lasting bone augmentation. Standardized bone defects in rat calvariae were covered with a convexly-shaped DeltaSystem plate, and then processed for histological observations. At 1 week, alkaline phosphatase-positive osteoblasts were seen in the newly-formed bone extending from the cavity's bottom, indicating accelerated osteogenesis. A thick layer of soft connective tissue positive for periostin, a hallmark of periosteum, covered this new bone. At 2 weeks, a spongy bone had filled the cavity up to half its height. The inner layer of the soft tissue facing the spongy bone revealed abundant periostin and osteopontin, and had many tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive osteoclasts. At 4 weeks, this layer had given rise to thin new bony matrices without relation to the spongy bone arising from the cavity. These bone matrices had been thickened by 8 weeks, and turned into a thick cortical bone outlining the regenerated bone at 12 weeks. Thus, our study has provided histological evidences of cortical osteogenesis when DeltaSystem plates are used for bone augmentation procedures.
