Isobavachin attenuates osteoclastogenesis and periodontitis-induced bone loss by inhibiting cellular iron accumulation and mitochondrial biogenesis. Biochem Pharmacol 2024; 224:116202. [PMID: 38615917 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2024.116202] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2024] [Revised: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
As bone-resorbing cells rich in mitochondria, osteoclasts require high iron uptake to promote mitochondrial biogenesis and maintain a high-energy metabolic state for active bone resorption. Given that abnormal osteoclast formation and activation leads to imbalanced bone remodeling and osteolytic bone loss, osteoclasts may be crucial targets for treating osteolytic diseases such as periodontitis. Isobavachin (IBA), a natural flavonoid compound, has been confirmed to be an inhibitor of receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation from bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs). However, its effects on periodontitis-induced bone loss and the potential mechanism of its anti-osteoclastogenesis effect remain unclear. Our study demonstrated that IBA suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis in BMMs and RAW264.7 cells and inhibited osteoclast-mediated bone resorption in vitro. Transcriptomic analysis indicated that iron homeostasis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolic process were enriched among the differentially expressed genes following IBA treatment. IBA exerted its anti-osteoclastogenesis effect by inhibiting iron accumulation in osteoclasts. Mechanistically, IBA attenuated iron accumulation in RANKL-induced osteoclasts by inhibiting the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway to upregulate ferroportin1 (Fpn1) expression and promote Fpn1-mediated intracellular iron efflux. We also found that IBA inhibited mitochondrial biogenesis and function, and reduced RANKL-induced ROS generation in osteoclasts. Furthermore, IBA attenuated periodontitis-induced bone loss by reducing osteoclastogenesis in vivo. Overall, these results suggest that IBA may serve as a promising therapeutic strategy for bone diseases characterized by osteoclastic bone resorption.

Abstract
Excessive bone resorption is one of the main causes of bone homeostasis alterations, resulting in an imbalance in the natural remodeling cycle. This imbalance can cause diseases such as osteoporosis, or it can be exacerbated in bone cancer processes. In such cases, there is an increased risk of fractures requiring a prosthesis. In the present study, a titanium implant subjected to gallium (Ga)-doped thermochemical treatment was evaluated as a strategy to reduce bone resorption and improve osteodifferentiation. The suitability of the material to reduce bone resorption was proven by inducing macrophages (RAW 264.7) to differentiate to osteoclasts on Ga-containing surfaces. In addition, the behavior of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) was studied in terms of cell adhesion, morphology, proliferation, and differentiation. The results proved that the Ga-containing calcium titanate layer is capable of inhibiting osteoclastogenesis, hypothetically by inducing ferroptosis. Furthermore, Ga-containing surfaces promote the differentiation of hMSCs into osteoblasts. Therefore, Ga-containing calcium titanate may be a promising strategy for patients with fractures resulting from an excessive bone resorption disease.

Abstract
Mitochondria are pivotal to cellular homeostasis, performing vital functions such as bioenergetics, biosynthesis, and cell signalling. Proper maintenance of these processes is crucial to prevent disease development and ensure optimal cell function. Mitochondrial dynamics, including fission, fusion, biogenesis, mitophagy, and apoptosis, maintain mitochondrial quality control, which is essential for overall cell health. In male reproduction, mitochondria play a pivotal role in germ cell development and any defects in mitochondrial quality can have serious consequences on male fertility. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) also play a crucial role in sperm capacitation, but excessive ROS levels can trigger oxidative damage. Any imbalance between ROS and sperm quality control, caused by non-communicable diseases or environmental factors, can lead to an increase in oxidative stress, cell damage, and apoptosis, which in turn affect sperm concentration, quality, and motility. Therefore, assessing mitochondrial functionality and quality control is essential to gain valuable insights into male infertility. In sum, proper mitochondrial functionality is essential for overall health, and particularly important for male fertility. The assessment of mitochondrial functionality and quality control can provide crucial information for the study and management of male infertility and may lead to the development of new strategies for its management.

Abstract
This review discusses the history of discovery and study of the operation of the two rotary ion-translocating ATPase nano-motors: (i) F-ATPase/synthase (holocomplex F1FO) of mitochondria/bacteria and (ii) eukaryotic V-ATPase (holocomplex V1VO). Vacuolar adenosine triphosphatase (V-ATPase) is a transmembrane multisubunit complex found in all eukaryotes from yeast to humans. It is structurally and functionally similar to the F-ATPase/synthase of mitochondria/bacteria and the A-ATPase/synthase of archaebacteria, which indicates a common evolutionary origin of the rotary ion-translocating nano-motors built into cell membranes and invented by Nature billions of years ago. Previously we have published several reviews on this topic with appropriate citations of our original research. This review is focused on the historical analysis of the discovery and study of transmembrane rotary ion-translocating ATPase nano-motors functioning in bacteria, eukaryotic cells and mitochondria of animals.

Abstract
Brachyurans inhabit a variety of habitats and have evolved diverse osmoregulatory patterns. Gills, antennal glands and a lung-like structure are important organs of crabs that maintain their homeostasis in different habitats. Species use different processes to regulate ions in the antennal gland, especially those with high terrestriality such as Grapsoidea and Ocypodoidea. Our phylogenetic generalized least square (PGLS) result also suggested that there is a correlation between antennal gland NKA activity and urine-hemolymph ratio for Na+ concentration in hypo-osmotic environments among crabs. Species with higher antennal gland NKA activity showed a lower urine-hemolymph ratio for Na+ concentration under hypo-osmotic stress. These phenomenon may correlate to the structural and functional differences in gills and lung-like structure among crabs. However, a limited number of studies have focused on the structural and functional differences in the antennal gland among brachyurans. Integrative and systemic methods like next generation sequencing and proteomics method can be useful for investigating the differences in multi-gene expression and sequences among species. These perspectives can be combined to further elucidate the phylogenetic history of crab antennal glands.

Abstract
Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) is a coronavirus, which causes fatal severe diarrhea and leads to high mortality in newborn piglets. Inflammasomes are hub molecules that induce proinflammatory cytokine production and maturation to initiate innate immune defenses upon cellular infection. To date, the potential role of inflammasome in TGEV infection in porcine intestinal epithelial cells has not been elucidated. The present study aims to investigate the function of the inflammasome in response to TGEV infection in porcine intestinal epithelial cells. Our results revealed that TGEV infection induced the production of pro-interleukin-1β (pro-IL-1β) and enhanced its processing and maturation in porcine intestinal epithelial cells through caspase-1 activation. In addition, TGEV infection in porcine intestinal epithelial cells induced pyroptosis, indicated by cell death and the production and cleavage of gasdermin D (GSDMD). Meanwhile, TGEV infection sufficiently activated the expression and assembly of the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in porcine intestinal epithelial cells, and inhibition of NLRP3 blocked TGEV-induced IL-1β release. We also found that inhibition of NLRP3 enhanced the replication of TGEV without inducing cell death. In conclusion, these data demonstrated that activation of IL-1β release and pyroptosis is dependent on NLRP3 inflammasome, thus NLRP3 inflammasome may play a central role in the innate immune response to TGEV infection.

Abstract
Vitamin D and beta-glucans are both immunostimulants. Vitamin D exerts its beneficial effects on many components of the immune system. In macrophages, the hormone modulates both phagocytic activity and cytokine production; therefore, it plays an important role in mediating the innate immune response to infection. The immunomodulatory properties of beta-glucans are attributed to the ability of these fungal cell wall polysaccharides to bind to different receptors expressed on the cell surface of phagocytic and cytotoxic innate immune cells, including monocytes and macrophages. The intracellular signaling pathways activated by beta-glucans lead to enhanced phagocytosis and cytokine response. In this study we investigated the possible potentiation of immunomodulatory properties of the combined treatment with vitamin D and beta-glucans. The effects of 100 nM 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or 100 µg/mL beta-glucans were evaluated in human macrophages in terms of cytokine production, intracellular vesicle acidification and changes in energy metabolism, three hallmarks of macrophage antimicrobial activation. We found that all the analyzed parameters were enhanced by the co-treatment compared to the response to single molecules. The results of this study support the validity of a novel therapeutic approach that could boost the immune response, taking advantage of the synergy between two natural compounds.

Abstract
Kidney intercalated cells are involved in acid-base homeostasis via vacuolar ATPase expression. Here we report six human intercalated cell subtypes, including hybrid principal-intercalated cells identified from single cell transcriptomics. Phagosome maturation is a biological process that increases in biological pathway analysis rank following exposure to uropathogenic Escherichia coli in two of the intercalated cell subtypes. Real time confocal microscopy visualization of murine renal tubules perfused with green fluorescent protein expressing Escherichia coli or pHrodo Green E. coli BioParticles demonstrates that intercalated cells actively phagocytose bacteria then acidify phagolysosomes. Additionally, intercalated cells have increased vacuolar ATPase expression following in vivo experimental UTI. Taken together, intercalated cells exhibit a transcriptional response conducive to the kidney's defense, engulf bacteria and acidify the internalized bacteria. Intercalated cells represent an epithelial cell with characteristics of professional phagocytes like macrophages.

Abstract
SIRT3 has been speculated to affect osteoclast activity through its important roles in regulating mitochondrial function. It remains unclear whether SIRT3 affects osteoclast activity in female mice which is relevant to postmenopausal osteoporosis. We hypothesized that deletion of SIRT3 could modulate bone remodeling in female mice under physiological aging process or ovariectomy (OVX)-induced bone loss. We found that SIRT3 level was markedly increased in primary bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) from both 26-month-old aged mice and OVX mice. Knockdown of SIRT3 in vitro inhibited osteoclast differentiation and mitochondrial biogenesis, and deletion of SIRT3 increased trabecular bone mass in female mice due to impaired osteoclastogenesis. The effect of SIRT3 on bone remodeling appears to be age-dependent as revealed by comparing the effect of SIRT3 deletion on 5-week-old, 3-month-old and 6-month-old female mice. Interestingly, Sirt3-/- mice were more resistant to bone loss following estrogen deficiency resulting from OVX. Our findings demonstrated that SIRT3 could play critical roles in bone remodeling and estrogen deficiency-induced bone loss in female mice, suggesting that SIRT3 and its downstream effectors might be potential novel therapeutic targets for the management of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
A primary function of the H+-ATPase (or V-ATPase) is to create an electrochemical proton gradient across eukaryotic cell membranes, which energizes fundamental cellular processes. Its activity allows for the acidification of intracellular vesicles and organelles, which is necessary for many essential cell biological events to occur. In addition, many specialized cell types in various organ systems such as the kidney, bone, male reproductive tract, inner ear, olfactory mucosa, and more, use plasma membrane V-ATPases to perform specific activities that depend on extracellular acidification. It is, however, increasingly apparent that V-ATPases are central players in many normal and pathophysiological processes that directly influence human health in many different and sometimes unexpected ways. These include cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, and sensory perception, as well as energy and nutrient-sensing functions within cells. This review first covers the well-established role of the V-ATPase as a transmembrane proton pump in the plasma membrane and intracellular vesicles and outlines factors contributing to its physiological regulation in different cell types. This is followed by a discussion of the more recently emerging unconventional roles for the V-ATPase, such as its role as a protein interaction hub involved in cell signaling, and the (patho)physiological implications of these interactions. Finally, the central importance of endosomal acidification and V-ATPase activity on viral infection will be discussed in the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
The distal nephron and collecting duct segments of the mammalian kidney consist of intercalated cell types intermingled among principal cell types. Notch signaling ensures that a sufficient number of cells select a principal instead of an intercalated cell fate. However, the precise mechanisms by which Notch signaling patterns the distal nephron and collecting duct cell fates is unknown. Here we observed that Hes1, a direct target of Notch signaling pathway, is required within the mouse developing collecting ducts for repression of Foxi1 expression, an essential intercalated cell specific transcription factor. Interestingly, inactivation of Foxi1 in Hes1-deficient collecting ducts rescues the deficiency in principal cell fate selection, overall urine concentrating deficiency, and reduces the occurrence of hydronephrosis. However, Foxi1 inactivation does not rescue the reduction in expression of all principal cell genes in the Hes1-deficient kidney collecting duct cells that select the principal cell fate. Additionally, suppression of Notch/Hes1 signaling in mature principal cells reduces principal cell gene expression without activating Foxi1. We conclude that Hes1 is a Notch signaling target that is essential for normal patterning of the collecting ducts with intermingled cell types by repressing Foxi1, and for maintenance of principal cell gene expression independent of repressing Foxi1.

Abstract
Epithelial cells line the lumen of tubular organs and are key players in their respective functions. They establish a unique luminal environment by providing a protective barrier and by performing vectorial transport of ions, nutrients, solutes, proteins, and water. Complex intercellular communication networks, specific for each organ, ensure their interaction with adjacent epithelial and non-epithelial cells, allowing them to respond to and modulate their immediate environment. In the epididymis, several epithelial cell types work in a concerted manner to establish a luminal acidic milieu that is essential for the post-testicular maturation and storage of spermatozoa. The epididymis also prevents autoimmune responses against auto-antigenic spermatozoa, while ensuring protection against ascending and blood pathogens. This is achieved by a network of immune cells that are in close contact and interact with epithelial cells. This review highlights the coordinated interactions between spermatozoa, basal cells, principal cells, narrow cells, clear cells, and immune cells that contribute to the maturation, protection, selection, and storage of spermatozoa in the lumen of the epididymis.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are cells of the hematopoietic lineage that are specialized to resorb bone. In osteoclasts, the actin cytoskeleton engages in at least two unusual activities that are required for resorption. First, microfilaments form a dynamic and structurally elaborate actin ring. Second, microfilaments bind vacuolar H⁺-ATPase (V-ATPase) and are involved in forming the V-ATPase-rich ruffled plasma membrane. The current review examines these two specialized functions with emphasis on the identification of new therapeutic opportunities. The actin ring is composed of substructures called podosomes that are interwoven to form a cohesive superstructure. Studies examining the regulation of the formation of actin rings and its constituent proteins are reviewed. Areas where there are gaps in the knowledge are highlighted. Microfilaments directly interact with the V-ATPase through an actin binding site in the B2-subunit of V-ATPase. This binding interaction is required for ruffled membrane formation. Recent studies show that an inhibitor of the interaction blocks bone resorption in pre-clinical animal models, including a model of post-menopausal osteoporosis. Because the unusual actin-based resorption complex is unique to osteoclasts and essential for bone resorption, it is likely that deeper understanding of its underlying mechanisms will lead to new approaches to treat bone disease.

Endogenous Notch Signaling in Adult Kidneys Maintains Segment-Specific Epithelial Cell Types of the Distal Tubules and Collecting Ducts to Ensure Water Homeostasis. J Am Soc Nephrol 2018; 30:110-126.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Notch signaling is required during kidney development for nephron formation and principal cell fate selection within the collecting ducts. Whether Notch signaling is required in the adult kidney to maintain epithelial diversity, or whether its loss can trigger principal cell transdifferentiation (which could explain acquired diabetes insipidus in patients receiving lithium) is unclear. METHODS To investigate whether loss of Notch signaling can trigger principal cells to lose their identity, we genetically inactivated Notch1 and Notch2, inactivated the Notch signaling target Hes1, or induced expression of a Notch signaling inhibitor in all of the nephron segments and collecting ducts in mice after kidney development. We examined renal function and cell type composition of control littermates and mice with conditional Notch signaling inactivation in adult renal epithelia. In addition, we traced the fate of genetically labeled adult kidney collecting duct principal cells after Hes1 inactivation or lithium treatment. RESULTS Notch signaling was required for maintenance of Aqp2-expressing cells in distal nephron and collecting duct segments in adult kidneys. Fate tracing revealed mature principal cells in the inner stripe of the outer medulla converted to intercalated cells after genetic inactivation of Hes1 and, to a lesser extent, lithium treatment. Hes1 ensured repression of Foxi1 to prevent the intercalated cell program from turning on in mature Aqp2+ cell types. CONCLUSIONS Notch signaling via Hes1 regulates maintenance of mature renal epithelial cell states. Loss of Notch signaling or use of lithium can trigger transdifferentiation of mature principal cells to intercalated cells in adult kidneys.

Abstract
Methylglyoxal (MG) is a reactive dicarbonyl compound produced by glycolytic processing, which has been identified as a precursor of advanced glycation end products. Elevated MG levels in patients with diabetes are believed to contribute to diabetic complications, including bone defects. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of MG on RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation in RAW264.7 cells, a murine macrophage cell line. RAW264.7 cells were cultured in medium containing 50 ng/mL RANKL and different concentrations of MG. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity and osteoclast bone resorbing activity were assessed and changes in intracellular calcium concentration, mitochondrial mass, mitochondrial membrane potential, and glyoxalase I level were examined. In addition, real-time RT-PCR assay was used to analyse osteoclast-associated genes. MG markedly inhibited RANKL-induced TRAP activity. MG treatment resulted in a significant decrease in intracellular calcium concentration, mitochondrial mass, mitochondrial membrane potential, and glyoxalase I level during osteoclastogenesis. In addition, MG increased the formation of mitochondrial superoxide. Quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction revealed increased expression of the TRAF6, GAB2, ERK1, c-Fos, NFATc1, CLCN7, and OSTM1 genes, decreased expression of TCIRG and carbonic anhydrase II, and unchanged expression of cathepsin K and MMP-9 upon MG treatment. MG had no effect on the bone resorbing activity of osteoclasts. Our findings indicate that MG inhibits TRAP and glyoxalase I activity and impairs mitochondrial function in osteoclasts. Further validation of the underlying pathway is necessary.

Abstract
The intestinal epithelial cells contain a large number of mitochondria for persisting absorption and barrier function. Selective autophagy of mitochondria (mitophagy) plays an important role in the quality control of mitochondria and maintenance of cell homeostasis. Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) is a porcine enteropathogenic coronavirus which induces malabsorption and lethal watery diarrhea in suckling piglets. The role of mitophagy in the pathological changes caused by TGEV infection is unclear. Here, we report that TGEV induces mitophagy to suppress oxidative stress and apoptosis induced by viral infection in porcine epithelial cells (IPEC-J2). We observe that TGEV infection induce mitochondrial injury, abnormal morphology, complete mitophagy, and without obvious apoptosis after TGEV infection. Meanwhile, TGEV also induces DJ-1 and some antioxidant genes upregulation to suppress oxidative stress induced by viral infection. Furthermore, silencing DJ-1 inhibit mitophagy and increase apoptosis after TGEV infection. In addition, we demonstrate for the first time that viral nucleocapsid protein (N) is located in mitochondria and mitophagosome during virus infection or be expressed alone. Those results provide a novel perspective for further improvement of prevention and treatment in TGEV infection. These results suggest that TGEV infection induce mitophagy to promote cell survival and possibly viral infection.

Abstract
Acidosis is an important complication of AKI and CKD. Renal intercalated cells (ICs) express the proton pumping vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) and are extensively involved in acid-base homeostasis. H+ secretion in type A intercalated cells (A-ICs) is regulated by apical vesicle recycling and stimulated by cAMP. In other cell types, cAMP is increased by extracellular agonists, including adenosine, through purinergic receptors. Adenosine is a Food and Drug Administration-approved drug, but very little is known about the effect of adenosine on IC function. Therefore, we investigated the role of adenosine in the regulation of V-ATPase in ICs. Intravenous treatment of mice with adenosine or agonists of ADORA2A and ADORA2B purinergic P1 receptors induced V-ATPase apical membrane accumulation in medullary A-ICs but not in cortical A-ICs or other IC subtypes. Both receptors are located in A-IC apical membranes, and adenosine injection increased urine adenosine concentration and decreased urine pH. Cell fractionation showed that adenosine or an ADORA2A or ADORA2B agonist induced V-ATPase translocation from vesicles to the plasma membrane and increased protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent protein phosphorylation in purified medullary ICs that were isolated from mice. Either ADORA2A or ADORA2B antagonists or the PKA inhibitor mPKI blocked these effects. Finally, a fluorescence pH assay showed that adenosine activates V-ATPase in isolated medullary ICs. Our study shows that medullary A-ICs respond to luminal adenosine through ADORA2A and ADORA2B receptors in a cAMP/PKA pathway-dependent mechanism to induce V-ATPase-dependent H+ secretion.

Abstract
Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is activated by numerous stimuli, including amino acids and growth factors. This kinase is part of the mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) which regulates cell proliferation, differentiation, and autophagy. Active mTORC1 is located on lysosomes and has been reported to disassociate from the lysosomal surface in the absence of amino acids. Furthermore, mTORC1 activity has been linked to the vacuolar H+-ATPases (V-ATPases), the proton pumps responsible for lysosomal acidification; however, the exact role of the V-ATPases in mTORC1 signaling is not known. To elucidate the mechanisms involved in mTORC1 regulation by the V-ATPases, we used primary osteoclasts derived from mice carrying a point (R740S) mutation in the a3 subunit of the V-ATPase. In these cells, the mutant protein is expressed but the pump is not functional, resulting in higher lysosomal pH. By analyzing mTOR activation, mTOR/lysosome co-localization, and lysosomal positioning using confocal microscopy, fractionation, and ultrapure lysosomal purification methods, we demonstrate that in primary osteoclasts, mTOR is localized on the lysosomal surface even when mTOR activity is inhibited. Our findings reveal that mTOR targeting to the lysosome in osteoclasts is activity-independent, and that its disassociation from the lysosome during starvation is not universal.

Abstract
The mammalian kidney collecting ducts are critical for water, electrolyte and acid-base homeostasis and develop as a branched network of tubular structures composed of principal cells intermingled with intercalated cells. The intermingled nature of the different collecting duct cell types has made it challenging to identify unique and critical factors that mark and/or regulate the development of the different collecting duct cell lineages. Here we report that the canonical Notch signaling pathway components, RBPJ and Presinilin1 and 2, are involved in patterning the mouse collecting duct cell fates by maintaining a balance between principal cell and intercalated cell fates. The relatively reduced number of principal cells in Notch-signaling-deficient kidneys offered a unique genetic leverage to identify critical principal cell-enriched factors by transcriptional profiling. Elf5, which codes for an ETS transcription factor, is one such gene that is down-regulated in kidneys with Notch-signaling-deficient collecting ducts. Additionally, Elf5 is among the earliest genes up regulated by ectopic expression of activated Notch1 in the developing collecting ducts. In the kidney, Elf5 is first expressed early within developing collecting ducts and remains on in mature principal cells. Lineage tracing of Elf5-expressing cells revealed that they are committed to the principal cell lineage by as early as E16.5. Over-expression of ETS Class IIa transcription factors, including Elf5, Elf3 and Ehf, increase the transcriptional activity of the proximal promoters of Aqp2 and Avpr2 in cultured ureteric duct cell lines. Conditional inactivation of Elf5 in the developing collecting ducts results in a small but significant reduction in the expression levels of Aqp2 and Avpr2 genes. We have identified Elf5 as an early maker of the principal cell lineage that contributes to the expression of principal cell specific genes.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are an indispensable element of cellular signal transduction in various cell types, including bone cells. In particular, osteoclasts (OCs), cells specialized for bone resorption, utilize ROS as second messengers during receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced differentiation and activation. In addition, because of the high energy demands of bone-resorbing activity, OCs contain large amounts of mitochondria, the source of the majority of total ROS. In this study, we focused on the regulation of ROS generated from mitochondria during osteoclastogenesis. We observed that the level of mitochondrial superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), an enzyme responsible for reducing superoxide radicals in mitochondria, was increased by RANKL. siRNA-mediated knockdown (KD) of SOD2 increased ROS levels and enhanced OC differentiation. Conversely, overexpression of SOD2 reduced osteoclastogenesis by decreasing ROS levels. Moreover, we found that NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin 3 (Sirt3), an activator of SOD2 in mitochondria, was induced by RANKL. Sirt3-targeted siRNA decreased SOD2 activity by reducing deacetylation of lysine 68 of SOD2, leading to increased osteoclastogenesis. Furthermore, in vivo KD of SOD2 or Sirt3 in ICR mouse calvariae decreased bone volume and increased OC surface, supporting the results of in vitro experiments. Taken together, our findings demonstrate for the first time to our knowledge that the regulation of mitochondrial ROS by SOD2 and Sirt3 plays an important role in fine-tuning the OC differentiation program. © 2016 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

[PMID: 27422162 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2016.07.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2016] [Revised: 07/10/2016] [Accepted: 07/11/2016] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Icariin, a principal flavonoid glycoside of Epimedium brevicornu Maxim, has been widely proved to possess antiosteoporotic activity with promoting bone formation and decreasing bone resorption. However, the involving mechanisms remain unclear. AIM OF THE STUDY To clear a global insight of signal pathways involved in anti-osteoporotic mechanism of icariin at proteins and metabolites level by integrating the proteomics and NMR metabonomics, in a systems biology approach. MATERIAL AND METHODS Mice were divided into sham, OVX model and icariin-treated OVX group, after 90 days treatment, difference gel electrophoresis combined with MALDI-TOF/TOF proteomics analysis on bone femur and serum metabolomics were carried out for monitor intracellular processes and elucidate anti-osteoporotic mechanism of icariin. Osteoblast and osteoclast were applied to evaluate the potential signal pathways. RESULTS Twenty three proteins in bone femur, and 8 metabolites in serum, were significantly altered and identified, involving in bone remodeling, energy metabolism, cytoskeleton, lipid metabolism, MAPK signaling, Ca2+ signaling et, al. Furthermore, animal experiment show icariin could enhance the BMD and BMC, decrease CTX-I level in ovariectomized mice. The mitochondrial membrane potential and the intracellular ATP levels were increased significantly, and the cytoskeleton were improved in icariin-treatment osteoblast and osteoclast. Icariin also increased mRNA expression of Runx2 and osterix of OB, decreased CTR and CAII mRNA expression and protein expression of P38 and JNK. However, icariin did not reveal any inhibition of the collagenolytic activity of cathepsin K, mRNA expression of MMP-9 and protein expression of ERK in osteoclast. CONCLUSION we consider icariin as multi-targeting compounds for treating with osteoporosis, involve initiating osteoblastogenesis, inhibiting adipogenesis, and preventing osteoclast differentiation.

Abstract
Cytosolic malate dehydrogenase (malate dehydrogenase 1, MDH1) plays pivotal roles in the malate/aspartate shuttle that might modulate metabolism between the cytosol and mitochondria. In this study, we investigated the role of MDH1 in osteoclast differentiation and formation. MDH1 expression was induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) treatment. Knockdown of MDH1 by infection with retrovirus containing MDH1-specific shRNA (shMDH1) reduced mature osteoclast formation and bone resorption activity. Moreover, the expression of marker genes associated with osteoclast differentiation was downregulated by shMDH1 treatment, suggesting a role of MDH1 in osteoclast differentiation. In addition, intracellular ATP production was reduced following the activation of adenosine 5' monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a cellular energy sensor and negative regulator of RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation, in shMDH1-infected osteoclasts compared to control cells. In addition, the expression of c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T-cells, cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1), a critical transcription factor of osteoclastogenesis, was decreased with MDH1 knockdown during RANKL-mediated osteoclast differentiation. These findings provide strong evidence that MDH1 plays a critical role in osteoclast differentiation and function via modulation of the intracellular energy status, which might affect AMPK activity and NFATc1 expression.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction connects metabolic disturbance with numerous pathologies, but the significance of mitochondrial activity in bone remains unclear. We have, therefore, characterized the skeletal phenotype in the Opa3L122P mouse model for Costeff syndrome, in which a missense mutation of the mitochondrial membrane protein, Opa3, impairs mitochondrial activity resulting in visual and metabolic dysfunction. Although widely expressed in the developing normal mouse head, Opa3 expression was restricted after E14.5 to the retina, brain, teeth and mandibular bone. Opa3 was also expressed in adult tibiae, including at the trabecular surfaces and in cortical osteocytes, epiphyseal chondrocytes, marrow adipocytes and mesenchymal stem cell rosettes. Opa3L122P mice displayed craniofacial abnormalities, including undergrowth of the lower mandible, accompanied in some individuals by cranial asymmetry and incisor malocclusion. Opa3L122P mice showed an 8-fold elevation in tibial marrow adiposity, due largely to increased adipogenesis. In addition, femoral length and cortical diameter and wall thickness were reduced, the weakening of the calcified tissue and the geometric component of strength reducing overall cortical strength in Opa3L122P mice by 65%. In lumbar vertebrae reduced vertebral body area and wall thickness were accompanied by a proportionate reduction in marrow adiposity. Although the total biomechanical strength of lumbar vertebrae was reduced by 35%, the strength of the calcified tissue (σmax) was proportionate to a 38% increase in trabecular number. Thus, mitochondrial function is important for the development and maintenance of skeletal integrity, impaired bone growth and strength, particularly in limb bones, representing a significant new feature of the Costeff syndrome phenotype.

Abstract
Osteoclasts seem to be metabolic active during their differentiation and bone-resorptive activation. However, the functional role of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), a tetrameric enzyme consisting of an A and/or B subunit that catalyzes interconversion of pyruvate to lactate, in RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation is not known. In this study, RANKL treatment induced gradual gene expression and activation of the LDH A2B2 isotype during osteoclast differentiation as well as the LDH A1B3 and B4 isotypes during osteoclast maturation after pre-osteoclast formation. Glucose consumption and lactate production in growth media were accelerated during osteoclast differentiation, together with enhanced expression of H+-lactate co-transporter and increased extracellular acidification, demonstrating that glycolytic metabolism was stimulated during differentiation. Further, oxygen consumption via mitochondria was stimulated during osteoclast differentiation. On the contrary, depletion of LDH-A or LDH-B subunit suppressed both glycolytic and mitochondrial metabolism, resulting in reduced mature osteoclast formation via decreased osteoclast precursor fusion and down-regulation of the osteoclastogenic critical transcription factor NFATc1 and its target genes. Collectively, our findings suggest that RANKL-induced LDH activation stimulates glycolytic and mitochondrial respiratory metabolism, facilitating mature osteoclast formation via osteoclast precursor fusion and NFATc1 signaling.

Abstract
Extracellular proton-secreting transport systems that contribute to extracellular pH include the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase). This pump, which mediates ATP-driven transport of H(+) across membranes, is involved in metastasis. We previously showed (Alzamora R, Thali RF, Gong F, Smolak C, Li H, Baty CJ, Bertrand CA, Auchli Y, Brunisholz RA, Neumann D, Hallows KR, Pastor-Soler NM. J Biol Chem 285: 24676-24685, 2010) that V-ATPase A subunit phosphorylation at Ser-175 is important for PKA-induced V-ATPase activity at the membrane of kidney intercalated cells. However, Ser-175 is also located within a larger phosphorylation consensus sequence for Aurora kinases, which are known to phosphorylate proteins that contribute to the pathogenesis of metastatic carcinomas. We thus hypothesized that Aurora kinase A (AURKA), overexpressed in aggressive carcinomas, regulates the V-ATPase in human kidney carcinoma cells (Caki-2) via Ser-175 phosphorylation. We found that AURKA is abnormally expressed in Caki-2 cells, where it binds the V-ATPase A subunit in an AURKA phosphorylation-dependent manner. Treatment with the AURKA activator anacardic acid increased V-ATPase expression and activity at the plasma membrane of Caki-2 cells. In addition, AURKA phosphorylates the V-ATPase A subunit at Ser-175 in vitro and in Caki-2 cells. Immunolabeling revealed that anacardic acid induced marked membrane accumulation of the V-ATPase A subunit in transfected Caki-2 cells. However, anacardic acid failed to induce membrane accumulation of a phosphorylation-deficient Ser-175-to-Ala (S175A) A subunit mutant. Finally, S175A-expressing cells had decreased migration in a wound-healing assay compared with cells expressing wild-type or a phospho-mimetic Ser-175-to-Asp (S175D) mutant A subunit. We conclude that AURKA activates the V-ATPase in kidney carcinoma cells via phosphorylation of Ser-175 in the V-ATPase A subunit. This regulation contributes to kidney carcinoma V-ATPase-mediated extracellular acidification and cell migration.

CTRP3 acts as a negative regulator of osteoclastogenesis through AMPK-c-Fos-NFATc1 signaling in vitro and RANKL-induced calvarial bone destruction in vivo. Bone 2015; 79:242-51. [PMID: 26103094 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2015.06.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2015] [Revised: 06/15/2015] [Accepted: 06/16/2015] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Adipokines derived from adipocytes are important factors that act as circulating regulators of bone metabolism. C1q/tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related Protein-3 (CTRP3) is a novel adipokine with multiple effects such as lowering glucose levels, inhibiting gluconeogenesis in the liver, and increasing angiogenesis and anti-inflammation. However, the effects and the mechanisms of CTRP3 on bone metabolism, which is regulated by osteoblasts and osteoclasts, have not been investigated. Here, we found that CTRP3 inhibited osteoclast differentiation induced by osteoclastogenic factors in bone marrow cell-osteoblast co-cultures, but did not affect the ratio of receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL) to osteoprotegerin (OPG) induced by osteoclastogenic factors in osteoblasts. We also found that CTRP3 inhibited osteoclast differentiation from mouse bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) induced by RANKL in a dose-dependent manner without cytotoxicity. Functionally, CTRP3 inhibited the F-actin formation and bone resorbing activity of mature osteoclasts. Pretreatment with CTRP3 significantly inhibited RANKL-induced expression of c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFATc1), essential transcription factors for osteoclast development. Surprisingly, the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) was considerably increased by pretreatment with CTRP3 for 1h. The CTRP3-stimulated AMPK activation was also maintained during RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. CTRP3 did not affect RANKL-induced p38, ERK, JNK, Akt, IκB, CREB, and calcium signaling (Btk and PLCγ2). These results suggest that CTRP3 plays an important role as a negative regulator of RANKL-mediated osteoclast differentiation by acting as an inhibitor of NFATc1 activation through the AMPK signaling pathway. Furthermore, CTRP3 treatment reduced RANKL-induced osteoclast formation and bone destruction in mouse calvarial bone in vivo based on micro-CT and histologic analysis. In conclusion, these findings strongly suggest that CTRP3 deserves new evaluation as a potential treatment target in various bone diseases associated with excessive osteoclast differentiation and bone destruction.

Abstract
The mixed segment is a unique part of the gut present only in the most apical lineage of termites and consists of a complex of overlapping mesenteric and proctodeal epithelia. In spite of its unique structure, the physiological functions of the mixed segment have been poorly studied. We performed transcriptome analysis to identify functional enzymes acting in the mixed segment of the wood-feeding higher termite Nasutitermes takasagoensis. We sequenced the transcripts (4563 isotigs) of the mixed segment and compared them with those of the midgut (4813 isotigs) and the first proctodeal segment (3629 isotigs). We found that vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) subunits were predominant in the mixed segment, which was confirmed by RT-qPCR analysis. The V-ATPase activity in these three tissues was in a good agreement with the expression patterns, suggesting that V-ATPase is a prevalent enzyme in the mixed segment of the termites. The results confirmed the proposed role of the mixed segment as a transporting epithelium.

Abstract
Magnolol (1) isolated from Magnolia officinalis exhibits many beneficial effects such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of magnolol (1) on RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms. Treatment with magnolol (1) significantly inhibited osteoclast differentiation of RAW 264.7 macrophages and bone-resorbing activity of osteoclasts in the RANKL-induced system. Moreover, RANKL-activated JNK/ERK/AP-1 and NF-κB signaling, ROS formation, and NFATc1 activation were attenuated by magnolol (1). A novel finding of this study is that magnolol (1) can increase heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression and Nrf2 activation in RANKL-stimulated cells. Blocking HO-1 activity with tin protoporphyrin IX markedly reversed magnolol (1)-mediated inhibition of osteoclast differentiation, NFATc1 nuclear translocation, and MMP-9 activity, suggesting that HO-1 contributes to the attenuation of NFATc1-mediated osteoclastogenesis by magnolol (1). Therefore, the inhibitory effect of magnolol (1) on osteoclast differentiation is due to inhibition of MAPK/c-fos/AP-1 and NF-κB signaling as well as ROS production and up-regulation of HO-1 expression, which ultimately suppresses NFATc1 induction. These findings indicate that magnolol (1) may have potential to treat bone diseases associated with excessive osteoclastogenesis.

Mitochondrial complex I activity suppresses inflammation and enhances bone resorption by shifting macrophage-osteoclast polarization. Cell Metab 2014; 20:483-98.

Abstract
Mitochondrial complex I (CI) deficiency is associated with multiple neurological and metabolic disorders. However, its effect on innate immunity and bone remodeling is unclear. Using deletion of the essential CI subunit Ndufs4 as a model for mitochondrial dysfunction, we report that mitochondria suppress macrophage activation and inflammation while promoting osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption via both cell-autonomous and systemic regulation. Global Ndufs4 deletion causes systemic inflammation and osteopetrosis. Hematopoietic Ndufs4 deletion causes an intrinsic lineage shift from osteoclast to macrophage. Liver Ndufs4 deletion causes a metabolic shift from fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis, accumulating fatty acids and lactate (FA/LAC) in the circulation. FA/LAC further activates Ndufs4(-/-) macrophages via reactive oxygen species induction and diminishes osteoclast lineage commitment in Ndufs4(-/-) progenitors; both inflammation and osteopetrosis in Ndufs4(-/-) mice are attenuated by TLR4/2 deletion. Together, these findings reveal mitochondrial CI as a critical rheostat of innate immunity and skeletal homeostasis.

Abstract
α-Intercalated cells (A-ICs) within the collecting duct of the kidney are critical for acid-base homeostasis. Here, we have shown that A-ICs also serve as both sentinels and effectors in the defense against urinary infections. In a murine urinary tract infection model, A-ICs bound uropathogenic E. coli and responded by acidifying the urine and secreting the bacteriostatic protein lipocalin 2 (LCN2; also known as NGAL). A-IC-dependent LCN2 secretion required TLR4, as mice expressing an LPS-insensitive form of TLR4 expressed reduced levels of LCN2. The presence of LCN2 in urine was both necessary and sufficient to control the urinary tract infection through iron sequestration, even in the harsh condition of urine acidification. In mice lacking A-ICs, both urinary LCN2 and urinary acidification were reduced, and consequently bacterial clearance was limited. Together these results indicate that A-ICs, which are known to regulate acid-base metabolism, are also critical for urinary defense against pathogenic bacteria. They respond to both cystitis and pyelonephritis by delivering bacteriostatic chemical agents to the lower urinary system.

Abstract
The vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) mediates ATP-driven H(+) transport across membranes. This pump is present at the apical membrane of kidney proximal tubule cells and intercalated cells. Defects in the V-ATPase and in proximal tubule function can cause renal tubular acidosis. We examined the role of protein kinase A (PKA) and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in the regulation of the V-ATPase in the proximal tubule as these two kinases coregulate the V-ATPase in the collecting duct. As the proximal tubule V-ATPases have different subunit compositions from other nephron segments, we postulated that V-ATPase regulation in the proximal tubule could differ from other kidney tubule segments. Immunofluorescence labeling of rat ex vivo kidney slices revealed that the V-ATPase was present in the proximal tubule both at the apical pole, colocalizing with the brush-border marker wheat germ agglutinin, and in the cytosol when slices were incubated in buffer alone. When slices were incubated with a cAMP analog and a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, the V-ATPase accumulated at the apical pole of S3 segment cells. These PKA activators also increased V-ATPase apical membrane expression as well as the rate of V-ATPase-dependent extracellular acidification in S3 cell monolayers relative to untreated cells. However, the AMPK activator AICAR decreased PKA-induced V-ATPase apical accumulation in proximal tubules of kidney slices and decreased V-ATPase activity in S3 cell monolayers. Our results suggest that in proximal tubule the V-ATPase subcellular localization and activity are acutely coregulated via PKA downstream of hormonal signals and via AMPK downstream of metabolic stress.

Abstract
Specialized cells in the body express high levels of V-ATPase in their plasma membrane and respond to hormonal and nonhormonal cues to regulate extracellular acidification. Mutations in or loss of some V-ATPase subunits cause several disorders, including renal distal tubular acidosis and male infertility. This review focuses on the regulation of V-ATPase-dependent luminal acidification in renal intercalated cells and epididymal clear cells, which are key players in these physiological processes.

Abstract
Osedax are gutless siboglinid worms that thrive on vertebrate bones lying on the ocean floor, mainly those of whales. The posterior body of female Osedax penetrates into the bone forming extensions known as 'roots', which host heterotrophic symbiotic bacteria in bacteriocytes beneath the epidermis. The Osedax root epithelium presumably absorbs bone collagen and/or lipids, which are metabolized by the symbiotic bacteria that in turn serve for Osedax's nutrition. Here, we show that Osedax roots express extremely high amounts of vacuolar-H(+)-ATPase (VHA), which is located in the apical membrane and in cytoplasmic vesicles of root and ovisac epithelial cells. The enzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA), which catalyses the hydration of CO2 into H(+) and HCO3(-), is also expressed in roots and throughout Osedax body. These results suggest Osedax roots have massive acid-secreting capacity via VHA, fuelled by H(+) derived from the CA-catalysed hydration of CO2 produced by aerobic metabolism. We propose the secreted acid dissolves the bone carbonate matrix to then allow the absorption of bone-derived nutrients across the skin. In an exciting example of convergent evolution, this model for acid secretion is remarkably similar to mammalian osteoclast cells. However, while osteoclasts dissolve bone for repairing and remodelling, the Osedax root epithelium secretes acid to dissolve foreign bone to access nutrients.

Abstract
The Na(+) concentration of the intracellular milieu is very low compared with the extracellular medium. Transport of Na(+) along this gradient is used to fuel secondary transport of many solutes, and thus plays a major role for most cell functions including the control of cell volume and resting membrane potential. Because of a continuous leak, Na(+) has to be permanently removed from the intracellular milieu, a process that is thought to be exclusively mediated by the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase in animal cells. Here, we show that intercalated cells of the mouse kidney are an exception to this general rule. By an approach combining two-photon imaging of isolated renal tubules, physiological studies, and genetically engineered animals, we demonstrate that inhibition of the H(+) vacuolar-type ATPase (V-ATPase) caused drastic cell swelling and depolarization, and also inhibited the NaCl absorption pathway that we recently discovered in intercalated cells. In contrast, pharmacological blockade of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase had no effects. Basolateral NaCl exit from β-intercalated cells was independent of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase but critically relied on the presence of the basolateral ion transporter anion exchanger 4. We conclude that not all animal cells critically rely on the sodium pump as the unique bioenergizer, but can be replaced by the H(+) V-ATPase in renal intercalated cells. This concept is likely to apply to other animal cell types characterized by plasma membrane expression of the H(+) V-ATPase.

Abstract
Unlike human patients with mutations in the 56-kDa B1 subunit isoform of the vacuolar proton-pumping ATPase (V-ATPase), B1-deficient mice (Atp6v1b1(-/-)) do not develop metabolic acidosis under baseline conditions. This is due to the insertion of V-ATPases containing the alternative B2 subunit isoform into the apical membrane of renal medullary collecting duct intercalated cells (ICs). We previously reported that quantitative Western blots (WBs) from whole kidneys showed similar B2 protein levels in Atp6v1b1(-/-) and wild-type mice (Păunescu TG, Russo LM, Da Silva N, Kovacikova J, Mohebbi N, Van Hoek AN, McKee M, Wagner CA, Breton S, Brown D. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 293: F1915-F1926, 2007). However, WBs from renal medulla (including outer and inner medulla) membrane and cytosol fractions reveal a decrease in the levels of the ubiquitous V-ATPase E1 subunit. To compare V-ATPase expression specifically in ICs from wild-type and Atp6v1b1(-/-) mice, we crossed mice in which EGFP expression is driven by the B1 subunit promoter (EGFP-B1(+/+) mice) with Atp6v1b1(-/-) mice to generate novel EGFP-B1(-/-) mice. We isolated pure IC populations by fluorescence-assisted cell sorting from EGFP-B1(+/+) and EGFP-B1(-/-) mice to compare their V-ATPase subunit protein levels. We report that V-ATPase A, E1, and H subunits are all significantly downregulated in EGFP-B1(-/-) mice, while the B2 protein level is considerably increased in these animals. We conclude that under baseline conditions B2 upregulation compensates for the lack of B1 and is sufficient to maintain basal acid-base homeostasis, even when other V-ATPase subunits are downregulated.

Abstract
Ruminal vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (vH(+)-ATPase) activity is regulated by metabolic signals. Thus, we tested whether its localization, expression, and activity were changed by different feeding. Young male sheep (n = 12) were either fed hay ad libitum (h) or hay ad libitum plus additional concentrate (h/c) for 2 wk. The vH(+)-ATPase B subunit signal was predominantly found in the cell membrane and cytosol of rumen epithelial cells (REC) with basal/parabasal phenotype. The elevated number (threefold) of these cells in rumen mucosa of h/c-fed sheep reflects a high proliferative capacity and, explains the 2.3-fold increase of the total number of vH(+)-ATPase-expressing REC. However, in accordance with a 58% reduction of the vH(+)-ATPase B subunit mRNA expression in h/c-fed sheep, its protein amount per single REC was decreased. Using the fluorescent probe BCECF and selective inhibitors (foliomycin, amiloride), the contribution of vH(+)-ATPase and Na(+)/H(+) exchanger to intracellular pH (pH(i)) regulation was investigated. REC isolated from h/c-fed sheep keep their pH(i) at a significantly higher level (6.91 ± 0.03 vs. 6.74 ± 0.05 in h-fed sheep). Foliomycin or amiloride decreased pH(i) by 0.16 ± 0.02 and 0.57 ± 0.04 pH units when applied to REC from h-fed sheep, but the effects were markedly reduced (-88 and -33%) after concentrate feeding. Nevertheless, we found that REC proliferation rate and [cAMP](i) were reduced after foliomycin-induced vH(+)-ATPase inhibition. Our results provide the first evidence for a role of vH(+)-ATPase in regulation of REC proliferation, most probably by linking metabolically induced pH(i) changes to signaling pathways regulating this process.

Abstract
Previously, we showed that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) negatively regulates receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand-induced osteoclast formation in vitro. The present study investigated the effect of (-)-epigallocathechin-3-gallate (EGCG), an AMPK activator, on ovariectomy (OVX)-induced bone loss in mice. Female mice subjected to OVX were administered EGCG for 8 weeks. We measured total-body bone mineral density (BMD) before and after the operation at an interval of 4 weeks. We performed micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) of the tibia and bone histomorphometric examination of the femur. Western blot analysis was additionally performed, to detect levels of the phosphorylated and total forms of AMPK-α in calvarial extracts. EGCG prevented OVX-induced body weight gain. The OVX control did not show a significant increase in BMD values at baseline and after treatment, unlike the sham control. EGCG attenuated OVX-induced bone loss. Micro-CT experiments revealed that EGCG induced a significant increase in trabecular bone volume and trabecular number and a decrease in trabecular spacing compared to the OVX control. Histomorphometric analyses further showed that EGCG suppressed osteoclast surface and number. Phosphorylated AMPK expression was significantly elevated in bone following EGCG treatment. Our findings collectively indicate that EGCG decreases OVX-induced bone loss via inhibition of osteoclasts.

Abstract
Mutations in SLC4A1 that mislocalize its product, the chloride/bicarbonate exchanger AE1, away from its normal position on the basolateral membrane of the α-intercalated cell cause autosomal dominant distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA). We studied a family exhibiting dominant inheritance and defined a mutation (AE1-M909T) that affects the C terminus of AE1, a region rich in potential targeting motifs that are incompletely characterized. Expression of AE1-M909T in Xenopus oocytes confirmed preservation of its anion exchange function. Wild-type GFP-tagged AE1 localized to the basolateral membrane of polarized MDCK cells, but AE1-M909T localized to both the apical and basolateral membranes. Wild-type AE1 trafficked directly to the basolateral membrane without apical passage, whereas AE1-M909T trafficked to both cell surfaces, implying the gain of an apical-targeting signal. We found that AE1-M909T acquired class 1 PDZ ligand activity that the wild type did not possess. In summary, the AE1-M909T mutation illustrates the role of abnormal targeting in dRTA and provides insight into C-terminal motifs that govern normal trafficking of AE1.

Abstract
The central goal of this overview article is to summarize recent findings in renal epithelial transport,focusing chiefly on the connecting tubule (CNT) and the cortical collecting duct (CCD).Mammalian CCD and CNT are involved in fine-tuning of electrolyte and fluid balance through reabsorption and secretion. Specific transporters and channels mediate vectorial movements of water and solutes in these segments. Although only a small percent of the glomerular filtrate reaches the CNT and CCD, these segments are critical for water and electrolyte homeostasis since several hormones, for example, aldosterone and arginine vasopressin, exert their main effects in these nephron sites. Importantly, hormones regulate the function of the entire nephron and kidney by affecting channels and transporters in the CNT and CCD. Knowledge about the physiological and pathophysiological regulation of transport in the CNT and CCD and particular roles of specific channels/transporters has increased tremendously over the last two decades.Recent studies shed new light on several key questions concerning the regulation of renal transport.Precise distribution patterns of transport proteins in the CCD and CNT will be reviewed, and their physiological roles and mechanisms mediating ion transport in these segments will also be covered. Special emphasis will be given to pathophysiological conditions appearing as a result of abnormalities in renal transport in the CNT and CCD.

Abstract
Vacuolar H(+)-ATPases (V-ATPases) are heteromultimeric proteins that use the energy of ATP hydrolysis for the electrogenic transport of protons across membranes. They are common to all eukaryotic cells and are located in the plasma membrane or in membranes of acid organelles. In many insect epithelia, V-ATPase molecules reside in large numbers in the apical plasma membrane and create an electrochemical proton gradient that is used for the acidification or alkalinization of the extracellular space, the secretion or reabsorption of ions and fluids, the import of nutrients, and diverse other cellular activities. Here, we summarize our results on the functions and regulation of V-ATPase in the tubular salivary gland of the blowfly Calliphora vicina. In this gland, V-ATPase activity energizes the secretion of a KCl-rich saliva in response to the neurohormone serotonin (5-HT). Because of particular morphological and physiological features, the blowfly salivary glands are a superior and exemplary system for the analysis of the intracellular signaling pathways and mechanisms that modulate V-ATPase activity and solute transport in an insect epithelium.

Abstract
Deafness is a serious condition that affects millions of people and can also lead to dementia. Moreover, Karet and associates reported in 1999 that mutations in the gene encoding H(+) V-ATPase subunit B(1) lead to deafness. Yet ionic flows that enable humans to hear high-pitched sounds at 20,000 cycles/sec (20 kHz) are not well understood. Sound is transduced to electrical signals by stereocilia of hair cells by influx of Ca(2+) and K(+) as the "transducer channel" opens transiently and reduces the ∼90 mV (endolymph positive) endocochlear potential (EP) by ∼20 mV as the receptor potential. The EP as well as concentrations of Ca(2+), H(+) and K(+) must remain constant to produce reliable signals. Ca(2+) entry is balanced by Ca(2+) exit via a plasma membrane Ca(2+) ATPase (PMCA2a) but the Ca(2+) exit is coupled to H(+) entry. Moreover, K(+) entry is balanced by K(+) exit via a long diffusion route through several channels which is too slow to account for 20 kHz signaling. The problem is solved by a new hypothesis in which an H(+) V-ATPase generates the EP and removes the H(+) while a new K(+)/H(+) antiporter uses the voltage to drive H(+) back in and the K(+) back out. In the new model, Ca(2+), H(+) and K(+) cycle between unstirred layers on the endolymph- and cytoplasmic- borders of the stereocilial membrane through distances of ∼20 nanometers with travel time of ∼10 μs, which is fast enough to account for the 50 μs open/close time for 20 kHz signaling. Central to this model is the hypothesis that a K(+) pump which secretes K(+) into a K(+)-rich compartment is composed of a voltage producing (electrogenic) H(+) V-ATPase that is electrically coupled to a voltage-driven (electrophoretic) K(+)/nH(+) antiporter (KHA). Conversely, for an H(+) V-ATPase to secrete K(+) into a K(+) rich compartment, it must be coupled to a KHA. Richard Keynes reviewed evidence in 1969 that such a K(+) pump, which he called a Type V pump, is present in the stria vascularis of cochlea and the goblet cell apical membrane of caterpillars. Its signature is a large outside positive potential of ∼100 mV, K(+) secretion into a K(+) rich compartment and reversible inhibition by anoxia. The key role of the Type V K(+) pump in generating the EP was recognized by Sellick and Bock in 1974 and others but has disappeared from the hearing literature during the past decades. Its revival here is based on immunolocalization of KHA2 in the stereocilial membrane and Gillespie's generously shared mass spectroscopy evidence that all but one of the V(1) ATPase subunits are detected in isolated chicken stereocilia but V(o) and KHAs are not detected (implying that KHAs must be in the membrane). The new model proposed in the present paper could lead to important changes in our understanding of sensory physiology.

Abstract
Maintaining tight control over body fluid and acid-base homeostasis is essential for human health and is a major function of the kidney. The collecting duct is a mosaic of two cell populations that are highly specialized to perform these two distinct processes. The antidiuretic hormone vasopressin (VP) and its receptor, the V2R, play a central role in regulating the urinary concentrating mechanism by stimulating accumulation of the aquaporin 2 (AQP2) water channel in the apical membrane of collecting duct principal cells. This increases epithelial water permeability and allows osmotic water reabsorption to occur. An understanding of the basic cell biology/physiology of AQP2 regulation and trafficking has informed the development of new potential treatments for diseases such as nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, in which the VP/V2R/AQP2 signaling axis is defective. Tubule acidification due to the activation of intercalated cells is also critical to organ function, and defects lead to several pathological conditions in humans. Therefore, it is important to understand how these "professional" proton-secreting cells respond to environmental and cellular cues. Using epididymal proton-secreting cells as a model system, we identified the soluble adenylate cyclase (sAC) as a sensor that detects luminal bicarbonate and activates the vacuolar proton-pumping ATPase (V-ATPase) via cAMP to regulate tubular pH. Renal intercalated cells also express sAC and respond to cAMP by increasing proton secretion, supporting the hypothesis that sAC could function as a luminal sensor in renal tubules to regulate acid-base balance. This review summarizes recent advances in our understanding of these fundamental processes.

Abstract
ATP6V1F encodes a component of vacuolar ATPase mediating acidification. The cDNA and the genomic sequences of ATP6V1F were cloned successfully for the first time from the Giant Panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and touchdown-polymerase chain reaction, respectively. The cDNA fragment cloned is 364 bp in size, containing an open reading frame of 360 bp encoding 119 amino acids. Alignment analysis indicated that both ORF and the deduced amino acid sequence are highly conserved. The length of the genomic sequence of the Giant Panda is 2225 bp, including two exons and one intron. Topology prediction showed that there is one protein kinase C phosphorylation site, two Casein kinase II phosphorylation sites, and one N-myristoylation site in the ATP6V1F protein. The ATP6V1F gene was overexpressed in Escherichia coli indicating that ATP6V1F fusion with the N-terminally His-tagged form gave rise to the accumulation of an expected 17 kDa polypeptide, which was according with the predicted protein and also could be used to purify the protein and study its function.
