Elucidating the mechano-molecular dynamics of TRAP activity using CRISPR/Cas9 mediated fluorescent reporter mice. Heliyon 2024; 10:e32949. [PMID: 39021958 PMCID: PMC11252717 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e32949] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2023] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Osteoclasts are essential for bone remodeling by adapting their resorptive activity in response to their mechanical in vivo environment. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. Here, we demonstrated the role of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP, Acp5), a key enzyme secreted by osteoclasts, in bone remodeling and mechanosensitivity. Using CRISPR/Cas9 reporter mice, we demonstrated bone cell reporter (BCRIbsp/Acp5) mice feature fluorescent TRAP-deficient osteoclasts and examined their activity during mechanically driven trabecular bone remodeling. Although BCRIbsp/Acp5 mice exhibited trabecular bone impairments and reduced resorption capacity in vitro, RNA sequencing revealed unchanged levels of key osteoclast-associated genes such as Ctsk, Mmp9, and Calcr. These findings, in conjunction with serum carboxy-terminal collagen crosslinks (CTX) and in vivo mechanical loading outcomes collectively indicated an unaltered bone resorption capacity of osteoclasts in vivo. Furthermore, we demonstrated similar mechanoregulation during trabecular bone remodeling in BCRIbsp/Acp5 and wild-type (WT) mice. Hence, this study provides valuable insights into the dynamics of TRAP activity in the context of bone remodeling and mechanosensation.

Abstract
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a crucial energy sensor of cellular metabolism under various metabolic stresses, such as oxidative stress and inflammation. AMPK deficiency increases osteoclast numbers and reduces bone mass; however, the precise mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to clarify the mechanistic connection between AMPK and osteoclast differentiation, and the potential role of AMPK in the anti-resorptive effects of several phytochemicals. We found that receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation, osteoclastic gene expression, and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and NF-κB were promoted in cells transfected with AMPK siRNA. AMPK knockdown led to defective synthesis of heme oxygenase-1, an antioxidant enzyme, and the upstream mediator, nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2. Furthermore, treatment with N-acetyl-l-cysteine, an antioxidant, abolished osteoclast differentiation and MAPK/NF-κB activation induced by AMPK knockdown. AMPK activators, hesperetin, gallic acid, resveratrol, and curcumin, suppressed osteoclast differentiation via the activation of AMPK. These results suggest that AMPK inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation by enhancing antioxidant defense system and regulating oxidative stress. AMPK activation by dietary-derived phytochemicals may be effective for the treatment of bone diseases.

Abstract
Purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) are ubiquitous binuclear metallohydrolases that have been isolated from various animals, plants and some types of fungi. In humans and mice, elevated PAP activity in osteoclasts is associated with osteoporosis, making human PAP an attractive target for the development of anti-osteoporotic drugs. Based on previous studies focusing on phosphonate scaffolds, as well as a new crystal structure of a PAP in complex with a derivative of a previously synthesized α-aminonaphthylmethylphosphonic acid, phosphonates 24-40 were designed as new PAP inhibitor candidates. Subsequent docking studies predicted that all of these compounds are likely to interact strongly with the active site of human PAP and most are likely to interact strongly with the active site of pig PAP. The seventeen candidates were synthesized with good yields and nine of them (26-28, 30, 33-36 and 38) inhibit in the sub-micromolar to nanomolar range against pig PAP, with 28 and 35 being the most potent mammalian PAP inhibitors reported with Ki values of 168 nM and 186 nM, respectively. This study thus paves the way for the next stage of drug development for phosphonate inhibitors of PAPs as anti-osteoporotic agents.

[PMID: 37108342 PMCID: PMC10138680 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24087179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
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.

Poult Sci 2022; 102:102438. [PMID: 36780704 PMCID: PMC9947423 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2022.102438] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Keel bone fractures affect welfare, health, and production performance in laying hens. A total of one hundred and twenty 35-wk-old Hy-line Brown laying hens with normal keel (NK) bone were housed in furnished cages and studied for ten weeks to investigate the underlying mechanism of keel bone fractures. At 45 wk of age, the keel bone state of birds was assessed by palpation and X-ray, and laying hens were recognized as NK and fractured keel (FK) birds according to the presence or absence of fractures in keel bone. The serum samples of 10 NK and 10 FK birds were collected to determine bone metabolism-related indexes and slaughtered to collect keel bones for RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq), Micro-CT, and histopathological staining analyses. The results showed that the concentrations of Ca, phosphorus, calcitonin, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, and osteocalcin and activities of alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) in serum samples of FK birds were lower than those of NK birds (P < 0.05), but the concentrations of parathyroid hormone, osteoprotegerin, and corticosterone in serum samples of FK birds were higher than those of NK birds (P < 0.05). TRAP staining displayed that FK bone increased the number of osteoclasts (P < 0.05). Micro-CT analysis indicated that FK bone decreased bone mineral density (P < 0.05). Transcriptome sequencing analysis of NK and FK bones identified 214 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (|log2FoldChange| > 1, P < 0.05), among which 88 were upregulated and 126 downregulated. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway (KEGG) analysis indicated that 14 DEGs related to skeletal muscle movement and bone Ca transport (COL6A1, COL6A2, COL6A3, PDGFA, MYLK2, EGF, CAV3, ADRA1D, BDKRB1, CACNA1S, TNN, TNNC1, TNNC2, and RYR3) were enriched in focal adhesion and Ca signaling pathway, regulating bone quality. This study suggests that abnormal bone metabolism related to keel bone fractures is possibly responded to fracture healing in laying hens.

Abstract
Osteoporosis a common disease in postmenopausal women which contains significant impact on the living quality of women. With the aging of the population, the number of patients suffer from osteoporosis has shown a significant increase. Given the limitations of clinical drugs for the treatment of osteoporosis, natural extracts with small side effects have a great application prospect in the treatment of osteoporosis. Praeruptorin B (Pra-B), is one of the main components found in the roots of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn and exhibits anti-inflammatory effects. However, there is no research on the influence of Pra-B on osteoporosis. Here, we showed that Pra-B can dose-dependently suppress osteoclastogenesis without cytotoxicity. Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL)-induced the nuclear import of P65 was inhibited by Pra-B, which indicated the suppressive effect of Pra-B on NF-κB signaling. Further, Pra-B enhanced the expression of Glutathione S-transferase Pi 1 (GSTP1) and promoted the S-glutathionylation of IKKβ to inhibit the nuclear translocation of P65. Moreover, in vivo experiments showed that Pra-B considerably attenuated the bone loss in ovariectomy (OVX)-induced mice. Collectively, our studies revealed that Pra-B suppress the NF-κB signaling targeting GSTP1 to rescued RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro and OVX-induced bone loss in vivo, supporting the potential of Pra-B for treating osteoporosis in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The association between the spatially distributed level of active TGFβ1 in human subchondral bone, and the characteristic structural and cellular parameters of human knee OA, was assessed. DESIGN Paired subchondral bone samples from 35 OA arthroplasty patients, (15 men and 20 women, aged 69 ± 9 years) were obtained from beneath macroscopically present (CA+) or denuded cartilage (CA-) to determine the concentration of active TGFβ1 (ELISA) and its relationship to bone quality (synchrotron micro-CT), cellularity, and vascularization (histology). RESULTS Bone samples beneath (CA-) regions had significantly increased concentrations of active TGFβ1 protein (mean difference: 26.4; 95% CI: [3.2, 49.7]), when compared to bone in CA + regions. Trabecular Bone below (CA-) regions had increased bone volume (median difference: 4.3; 96.49% CI: [-1.7, 17.8]), increased trabecular number (1.5 [0.006, 2.6], decreased trabecular separation (-0.05 [-0.1,-0.005]), and increased bone mineral density (394.5 [65.7, 723.3]) comparing to (CA+) regions. Further, (CA-) bone regions showed increased osteocyte density (0.012 [0.006, 0.018]), with larger osteocyte lacunae (39.8 [7.8, 71.7]) that were less spherical (-0.02 [-0.04, -0.003]), and increased bone matrix vascularity (12.4 [0.3, 24.5]) compared to (CA+). In addition, increased levels of active TGFβ1 related to increased bone volume (0.04 [-0.11, 0.9]), while increased OARSI grade associated with lacunar volume (-44.1 [-71.1, -17.2]), and orientation (2.7 [0.8, 4.6]). CONCLUSION Increased concentration of active TGFβ1 in the subchondral bone of human knee OA associates spatially with impaired bone quality and disease severity, suggesting that TGFβ1 is a potential therapeutic target to prevent or reduce human OA disease progression.

Abstract
Monocytes and macrophages are innate immune cells with diverse functions ranging from phagocytosis of microorganisms to forming a bridge with the adaptive immune system. A lesser-known attribute of macrophages is their ability to fuse with each other to form multinucleated giant cells. Based on their morphology and functional characteristics, there are in general three types of multinucleated giant cells including osteoclasts, foreign body giant cells and Langhans giant cells. Osteoclasts are bone resorbing cells and under physiological conditions they participate in bone remodeling. However, under pathological conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis, osteoclasts are responsible for bone destruction and bone loss. Foreign body giant cells and Langhans giant cells appear only under pathological conditions. While foreign body giant cells are found in immune reactions against foreign material, including implants, Langhans giant cells are associated with granulomas in infectious and non-infectious diseases. The functionality and fusion mechanism of osteoclasts are being elucidated, however, our knowledge on the functions of foreign body giant cells and Langhans giant cells is limited. In this review, we describe and compare the phenotypic aspects, biological and functional activities of the three types of multinucleated giant cells. Furthermore, we provide an overview of the multinucleation process and highlight key molecules in the different phases of macrophage fusion.

Abstract
Metallohydrolases form a large group of enzymes that have fundamental importance in a broad range of biological functions. Among them, the purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) have gained attention due to their crucial role in the acquisition and use of phosphate by plants and also as a promising target for novel treatments of bone-related disorders and cancer. To date, no crystal structure of a mammalian PAP with drug-like molecules bound near the active site is available. Herein, we used a fragment-based design approach using structures of a mammalian PAP in complex with the MaybridgeTM fragment CC063346, the amino acid L-glutamine and the buffer molecule HEPES, as well as various solvent molecules to guide the design of highly potent and efficient mammalian PAP inhibitors. These inhibitors have improved aqueous solubility when compared to the clinically most promising PAP inhibitors available to date. Furthermore, drug-like fragments bound in newly discovered binding sites mapped out additional scaffolds for further inhibitor discovery, as well as scaffolds for the design of inhibitors with novel modes of action.

Abstract
Objective Hypersympathetic activity is prominent in rheumatoid arthritis, and major life stressors precede onset in ~80% of patients. These findings and others support a link between stress, the sympathetic nervous system and disease onset and progression. Here, we extend previous research by evaluating how selective peripherally acting α/β2-adrenergic drugs affect joint destruction in adjuvant-induced arthritis. Methods Complete Freund's adjuvant induced inflammatory arthritis in male Lewis rats. Controls received no treatment. Arthritic rats then received vehicle or twice-daily treatment with the α-adrenergic antagonist, phentolamine (0.5 mg/day) and the β2-adrenergic agonist, terbutaline (1200 µg/day, collectively named SH1293) from day (D) of disease onset (D12) through acute (D21) and severe disease (D28). Disease progression was assessed in the hind limbs using dorsoplantar widths, X-ray analysis, micro-computed tomography, and routine histology on D14, D21, and D28 post-immunization. Results On D21, SH1293 significantly attenuated arthritis in the hind limbs, based on reduced lymphocytic infiltration, preservation of cartilage, and bone volume. Pannus formation and sympathetic nerve loss were not affected by SH1293. Bone area and osteoclast number revealed high- and low-treatment-responding groups. In high-responding rats, treatment with SH1293 significantly preserved bone area and decreased osteoclast number, data that correlated with drug-mediated joint preservation. SH1293 suppressed abnormal bone formation based on reduced production of osteophytes. On D28, the arthritic sparing effects of SH1293 on lymphocytic infiltration, cartilage and bone sparing were maintained at the expense of bone marrow adipocity. However, sympathetic nerves were retracted from the talocrural joint. Conclusion and Significance Our findings support a significant delay in early arthritis progression by treatment with SH1293. Targeting sympathetic neurotransmission may provide a strategy to slow disease progression.

Abstract
Many chronic pain conditions show sex differences in their epidemiology. This could be attributed to sex-dependent differential expression of genes (DEGs) involved in nociceptive pathways, including sensory neurons. This study aimed to identify sex-dependent DEGs in estrous female versus male sensory neurons, which were prepared by using different approaches and ganglion types. RNA-seq on non-purified sensory neuronal preparations, such as whole dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and hindpaw tissues, revealed only a few sex-dependent DEGs. Sensory neuron purification increased numbers of sex-dependent DEGs. These DEG sets were substantially influenced by preparation approaches and ganglion types [DRG vs trigeminal ganglia (TG)]. Percoll-gradient enriched DRG and TG neuronal fractions produced distinct sex-dependent DEG groups. We next isolated a subset of sensory neurons by sorting DRG neurons back-labeled from paw and thigh muscle. These neurons have a unique sex-dependent DEG set, yet there is similarity in biological processes linked to these different groups of sex-dependent DEGs. Female-predominant DEGs in sensory neurons relate to inflammatory, synaptic transmission and extracellular matrix reorganization processes that could exacerbate neuro-inflammation severity, especially in TG. Male-selective DEGs were linked to oxidative phosphorylation and protein/molecule metabolism and production. Our findings catalog preparation-dependent sex differences in neuronal gene expressions in sensory ganglia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteoclasts are giant polynuclear cells; their main function is bone resorption. An increased number of osteoclasts and enhanced bone resorption exert significant effects on osteoclast-related bone-lytic diseases, including osteoporosis. Given the limitations of current therapies for osteolytic diseases, it is urgently required to develop safer and more effective alternatives. Sarsasapogenin, a major sapogenin from Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bunge, possesses potent antitumor effects and inhibits NF-κB and MAPK signaling. However, the manner in which it affects osteoclasts is unclear. METHODS We investigated the effects of anti-osteoclastogenic and anti-resorptive of sarsasapogenin on bone marrow-derived osteoclasts. RESULTS Sarsasapogenin inhibited multiple RANKL-induced signaling cascades, thereby inhibiting the induction of key osteoclast transcription factor NFATc1. The in vivo and in vitro results were consistent: sarsasapogenin treatment protected against bone loss in a mouse osteolysis model induced by lipopolysaccharide. CONCLUSION Our research confirms that sarsasapogenin can be used as a new treatment for osteoclast-related osteolytic diseases.

Abstract
PURPOSE Ultra-small gold nanoclusters (AuNCs), as emerging fluorescent nanomaterials with excellent biocompatibility, have been widely investigated for in vivo biomedical applications. However, their effects in guiding osteogenic differentiation have not been investigated, which are important for osteoporosis therapy and bone regeneration. Herein, for the first time, lysozyme-protected AuNCs (Lys-AuNCs) are used to stimulate osteogenic differentiation, which have the potential for the treatment of bone disease. METHODS Proliferation of MC3T3E-1 is important for osteogenic differentiation. First, the proliferation rate of MC3T3E-1 was studied by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) assays. Signaling pathways of PI3K/Akt play central roles in controlling proliferation throughout the body. The expression of PI3K/Akt was investigated in the presence of lysozyme, and lysozyme-protected AuNCs (Lys-AuNCs) by Western blot (WB) and intracellular cell imaging to evacuate the osteogenic differentiation mechanisms. Moreover, the formation of osteoclasts (OC) plays a negative role in the differentiation of osteoblasts. Nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) signaling pathways are used to understand the negative influence of the osteogenic differentiation by the investigation of Raw 264.7 cell line. Raw 264.7 (murine macrophage-like) cells and NIH/3T3 (mouse fibroblast) cells were treated with tyloxapol, and the cell viability was assessed. Raw 264.7 cells have also been used for in vitro studies, on understanding the osteoclast formation and function. The induced osteoclasts were identified by TRAP confocal fluorescence imaging. These key factors in osteoclast formation, such as (NFATc-1, c-Fos, V-ATPase-2 and CTSK), were investigated by Western blot. RESULTS Based on the above investigation, Lys-AuNCs were found to promote osteogenic differentiation and decrease osteoclast activity. It is noteworthy that the lysozyme (protected template), AuNPs, or the mixture of Lysozyme and AuNPs have negligible effects on osteoblastic differentiation compared to Lys-AuNCs. CONCLUSION This study opens up a novel avenue to develop a new gold nanomaterial for promoting osteogenic differentiation. The possibility of using AuNCs as nanomedicines for the treatment of osteoporosis can be expected.

Friend or Foe? Essential Roles of Osteoclast in Maintaining Skeletal Health. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:4791786.

Abstract
Heightened activity of osteoclast is considered to be the culprit in breaking the balance during bone remodeling in pathological conditions, such as osteoporosis. As a “foe” of skeletal health, many antiosteoporosis therapies aim to inhibit osteoclastogenesis. However, bone remodeling is a dynamic process that requires the subtle coordination of osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Severe suppression of osteoclast differentiation will impair bone formation because of the coupling effect. Thus, understanding the complex roles of osteoclast in maintaining proper bone remodeling is highly warranted to develop better management of osteoporosis. This review aimed to determine the varied roles of osteoclasts in maintaining skeletal health and to highlight the positive roles of osteoclasts in maintaining normal bone remodeling. Generally, osteoclasts interact with osteocytes to initiate targeted bone remodeling and have crosstalk with mesenchymal stem cells and osteoblasts via secreted factors or cell-cell contact to promote bone formation. We believe that a better outcome of bone remodeling disorders will be achieved when proper strategies are made to coordinate osteoclasts and osteoblasts in managing such disorders.

Abstract
As the population of western societies on average ages, the number of people affected by bone remodeling-associated diseases such as osteoporosis continues to increase. The development of new therapeutics is hampered by the high failure rates of drug candidates during clinical testing, which is in part due to the poor predictive character of animal models during preclinical drug testing. Co-culture models of osteoblasts and osteoclasts offer an alternative to animal testing and are considered to have the potential to improve drug development processes in the future. However, a robust, scalable, and reproducible 3D model combining osteoblasts and osteoclasts for preclinical drug testing purposes has not been developed to date. Here we review various types of osteoblast-osteoclast co-culture models and outline the remaining obstacles that must be overcome for their successful translation.

Abstract
Bone augmentation is increasingly important in implantology. Bone substitute materials exert essential roles during bone augmentation process. However, accelerating bone substitute materials remodeling and acquiring high bone architecture quality was still the challenges of bone augmentation. Accumulated studies had suggested osteoclasts is the key cell type to resorb bone or bone substitute materials. Our previous study and other studies suggested osteoclasts contributed to bone formation by promoting osteoblast function and facilitate angiogenesis. We hypothesized that bone substitute materials loaded osteoclastogenic cytokines or osteoclast progenitors will help to bone substitute materials rapid remodeling and subsequent bone formation. Our hypothesis could help to lessen long-term post-bone augmentation period and acquire better bone quality for osseointegration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to determine whether bone remodeling and vessel formation in the osteochondral unit are suppressed by supplementing with docosahexaenoic acid in anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT)-induced rats. METHODS Twelve-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats were randomized to sham-operated, ACLT-operated and treated with vehicle, or ACLT-operated and treated with DHA groups. Micro-architecture and vasculature in the tibial osteochondral unit were examined by micro-CT, as well as by histomorphometry. To evaluate the effects of DHA in vitro, we conducted functional and expressional assays in RAW264.7 cells and HUVECs. Finally, we used OARSI-modified Mankin criteria and histological analyses to assess the status of the cartilage layer. RESULTS Microstructural parameters in the osteochondral unit showed that bone mass loss and angiogenesis were less in DHA-treated rats than in vehicle-treated rats. Immunofluorescence-positive cells labeled with TRAP, RANKL, CD31, and endomucin agents in the osteochondral unit of ACLT-operated rats were reduced in the DHA-treated group compared with the vehicle-treated group. Furthermore, the number of TRAP-stained cells, areas of bone resorption pits, and mRNA expression of TRAP, CTSK, MITF, and NFATC1 were reduced in RAW264.7 cells treated with RANKL + DHA compared with those treated with only RANKL. Tube formation, proliferation and migration of HUVECs, and VEGF-C mRNA and VEGFR2 protein expression were inhibited by DHA. The decrease in OARSI score, and MMP-13 and collagen X expression suggested that DHA attenuated cartilage degeneration. CONCLUSIONS DHA has the ability to restrain bone remodeling and vessel formation in the osteochondral unit, which may contribute to protection of cartilage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The overlying inflammatory mucosa plays a crucial role in the initiation of osteitis; however, the molecular mechanism is unclear. The objective of this study was to explore the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) pathway and to correlate the expression of key signaling molecules with the degree of osteitis in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). STUDY DESIGN Prospective experimental analysis. METHODS This was an institutional review board-approved study in which mucosal samples were obtained from sites of osteitis in CRSwNP and compared to nonosteitic healthy controls (n = 10/group). Protein expression of key BMP pathway was quantified by aptamer-based protein array and confirmed by a set of selected mRNA analyses. Degree of osteitis was assessed using both Kennedy Osteitis Score and Global Osteitis Score (GOS). RESULTS Pro-osteoblastic expression of BMP7 (fold change [FC] = -1.18, P = .017) and BMP9 (FC = -1.32, P = .023), their receptors, BMP receptor type-1A (BMPR1A) (FC = -2.56, P = .005) and BMP receptor type-2 (FC = -1.28, P = .022), and two enhancers of BMP signaling pathway, the repulsive guidance molecule domain family member B (FC = -1.13, P = .008) and the chordin-like protein 1 (FC = -1.18, P = .027), were all significantly downregulated in CRSwNP. Conversely, the pro-osteoclastic factor, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5 (ACP5) (FC = 2.36, P = .001), was significantly increased in CRSwNP. GOS was inversely correlated with levels of BMP7 (r = -0.684, P = .005) and BMPR1A (r = -0.864, P = .005) and positively correlated with levels of ACP5 (r = 0.815, P = .004). The FCs among the proteins studied significantly and positively correlated with the FCs of their mRNA expression (r = 0.908, P = .002). CONCLUSIONS Downregulated pro-osteoblastic mucosal BMP signaling is strongly and significantly associated with increased osteitis in CRSwNP. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE NA Laryngoscope, 129:E102-E109, 2019.

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.

Artemether attenuates LPS-induced inflammatory bone loss by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption via suppression of MAPK signaling pathway. Cell Death Dis 2018; 9:498.

Abstract
Osteolysis is an osteolytic lesion featured by enhanced osteoclast formation and potent bone erosion. Lacking of effective regimen for treatment of the pathological process highlights the importance of identifying agents that can suppress the differentiation and function of osteoclast. Artemether is a natural compound derived from Artemisia annua L. and it is popularized for the treatment of malaria. In present study, we demonstrated that artemether could suppress RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and expression of osteoclast marker genes such as tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, cathepsin K, matrix metalloproteinase 9, nuclear factor of activated T-cell cytoplasmic 1, and dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein. It inhibited the osteoclastic bone resorption in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. Furthermore, artemether attenuated RANKL-induced MAPKs (ERK, JNK, p-38) activity. In addition, we have showed that artemether was able to mitigate bone erosion in a murine model of LPS-induced inflammatory bone loss. Taken together, these findings suggest that artemether reduces inflammatory bone loss via inhibition of MAPKs activation during osteoclast differentiation, and it might be a potential candidate for the treatment of osteoclast-related disorders.

Abstract
Objective To examine the impact of long-term anti-TNFα therapy on bone mass, bone metabolism, and the trabecular bone score (TBS) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Material and Methods In eight patients with RA and 12 with AS, bone mineral densities (BMDs) of the lumbar spine (LS), left and right femoral neck, and total skeleton were measured using dual X-ray absorptiometry at baseline and then at 6, 12, and 24 months after anti TNFα therapy. The TBS was also calculated. At baseline and at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months, bone metabolism was assessed by measurements of pro-collagen-I carboxyterminal propeptide (PICP), osteocalcin, and bone alkaline phosphatase levels in the serum, which are indicative of bone formation and β-isomerized carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type-I collagen (β-CTX-I) and serum isoform 5b of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP5b) levels in the serum, which are indicative of bone resorption. Results In patients with RA, the LS T-score increased (3.2%, p<0.001) and the TBS progressively decreased (-3.9%, p=0.03). In patients with AS, the LS BMD and T-score increased (4.3% and 6.2%, respectively; p<0.001) with no significant change in the TBS. Serum TRACP5b levels dramatically increased in both groups (227% in patients with RA and 150% in those with AS, p<0.001), while β-CTX-I levels did not change. Serum osteocalcin and PICP levels showed a transitory increase in patients with AS. Conclusion Long-term anti-TNFα therapy increased LS bone mass and affected bone quality (TBS) with little impact on bone remodeling. Conversely, TRACP5b levels dramatically increased during anti-TNFα therapy but without any detrimental effect on bone mass.

Abstract
This one-year double blind randomized control trial assessed the effects of nightly melatonin, strontium (citrate), vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 (MK7; MSDK) on bone mineral density (BMD) and quality of life (QOL) in postmenopausal osteopenic women (ages 49-75). Compared to placebo, MSDK treatment increased BMD in lumbar spine (4.3%) and left femoral neck (2.2%), with an upward trend for total left hip (p=0.069). MSDK increased serum P1NP levels and reduced bone turnover (CTx:P1NP). Psychometric analyses indicated that mood and sleep quality improved for the MSDK group. MSDK-exposed human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and human peripheral blood monocytes (hPBMCs) plated in transwells or layered demonstrated increases in osteoblastogenesis, decreases in osteoclastogenesis, increases in OPG (TNFRSF11B) and decreases in RANKL (TNFSF11) levels. In transwell osteoblasts, MSDK increased pERK1/2 (MAPK1/MAPK3) and RUNX2 levels; decreased ERK5 (MAPK7); and did not affect the expression of NFκB (NFKB1) and β1integrin (ITGB1). In layered osteoblasts, MSDK also decreased expression of the metabolic proteins PPARγ (PPARG) and GLUT4 (SLC2A4). In adipose-derived human MSCs, MSDK induced osteoblastogenesis. These findings provide both clinical and mechanistic support for the use of MSDK for the prevention or treatment of osteopenia, osteoporosis or other bone-related diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bone grafts in patients with cleft lip and palate can undergo a significant amount of resorption. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of bisphosphonates (BPs) on the success of bone grafts in rats. DESIGN Thirty-five female 15-week-old Fischer F344 Inbred rats were divided into the following experimental groups, each receiving bone grafts to repair an intraoral CSD: (1) Graft/saline: systemic administration of saline and (2) systemic administration of zoledronic acid immediately following surgery (graft/BP/T0), (3) 1 week postoperatively (graft/BP/T1), and (4) 3 weeks postoperatively (graft/BP/T2). As an additional control, the defect was left empty without bone graft. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Microcomputed tomography and histologic analyses were performed in addition to evaluation of osteoclasts through tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining. RESULTS Bone volume fraction (bone volume/tissue volume) for the delayed BP treatment groups (graft/BP/T1 = 45.4% ± 8.8%; graft/BP/T2 = 46.1% ± 12.4%) were significantly greater than that for the graft/saline group (31.0% ± 7.9%) and the graft/BP/T0 (27.6% ± 5.9%) 6 weeks postoperatively (P < .05). Hematoxylin and eosin staining confirmed an evident increase in bone volume and fusion of defect margins with existing palatal bone in the graft/BP/T1 and graft/BP/T2 groups. The graft/BP/T0 group showed the lowest bone volume with signs of acute inflammation. CONCLUSIONS Delayed BP administration following cleft bone graft surgery led to significant increase in bone volume and integration compared with saline controls. However, BP injection immediately after the surgery did not enhance bone volume, and rather, may negatively affect bone graft incorporation.

Natural uranium impairs the differentiation and the resorbing function of osteoclasts. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2017; 1861:715-726.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Uranium is a naturally occurring radionuclide ubiquitously present in the environment. The skeleton is the main site of uranium long-term accumulation. While it has been shown that natural uranium is able to perturb bone metabolism through its chemical toxicity, its impact on bone resorption by osteoclasts has been poorly explored. Here, we examined for the first time in vitro effects of natural uranium on osteoclasts. METHODS The effects of uranium on the RAW 264.7 monocyte/macrophage mouse cell line and primary murine osteoclastic cells were characterized by biochemical, molecular and functional analyses. RESULTS We observed a cytotoxicity effect of uranium on osteoclast precursors. Uranium concentrations in the μM range are able to inhibit osteoclast formation, mature osteoclast survival and mineral resorption but don't affect the expression of the osteoclast gene markers Nfatc1, Dc-stamp, Ctsk, Acp5, Atp6v0a3 or Atp6v0d2 in RAW 274.7 cells. Instead, we observed that uranium induces a dose-dependent accumulation of SQSTM1/p62 during osteoclastogenesis. CONCLUSIONS We show here that uranium impairs osteoclast formation and function in vitro. The decrease in available precursor cells, as well as the reduced viability of mature osteoclasts appears to account for these effects of uranium. The SQSTM1/p62 level increase observed in response to uranium exposure is of particular interest since this protein is a known regulator of osteoclast formation. A tempting hypothesis discussed herein is that SQSTM1/p62 dysregulation contributes to uranium effects on osteoclastogenesis. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE We describe cellular and molecular effects of uranium that potentially affect bone homeostasis.

Abstract
Purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) are binuclear metallo-hydrolases that have been isolated from various mammals, plants, fungi and bacteria. In mammals, PAP activity is associated with bone resorption and can lead to bone metabolic disorders such as osteoporosis; thus human PAP is an attractive target to develop anti-osteoporotic drugs. The aim of the present study was to investigate inhibitory effect of synthesized diethylalkylsulfonamido(4-methoxyphenyl)methyl)phosphonate/phosphonic acid derivatives as potential red kidney bean PAP (rkbPAP) inhibitors accompanied by experimental and molecular modeling assessments. Enzyme kinetic data showed that they are good rkbPAP inhibitors whose potencies improve with increasing alkyl chain length. Hexadecyl derivatives, as most potent compounds (Ki = 1.1 µM), inhibit rkbPAP in the mixed manner, while dodecyl derivatives act as efficient noncompetitive inhibitor. Also, analysis by molecular modeling of the structure of the rkbPAP-inhibitor complexes reveals factors, which may be important for the determination of inhibition specificity.

Abstract
A new inhibitor, acredinone C (1), of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation was isolated from the culture broth of the fungus Acremonium sp. (F9A015) along with acredinones A (2) and B (3). The structure of acredinone C (1), which incorporates benzophenone and xanthone moieties, was established by the analyses of combined spectroscopic data including 1D and 2D NMR and MS. All of the acredinones studied efficiently inhibited the RANKL-induced formation of TRAP(+)-MNCs in a dose-dependent manner without any cytotoxicity up to 10 μM. Acredinone A showed dual activity in both osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation in vitro and good efficacy in an animal disease model of bone formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The retention of suprabony connective fibres attached into the root cementum during fibre retention osseous resective surgery (FibReORS) results in a more conservative intrasurgical removal of bone, and limits further bone loss and patient morbidity during healing, compared with conventional osseous resective surgery (ORS). This may be a result of the protective effect of preserved connective tissue over the interproximal sites and the lower activation of the inflammatory mechanisms. Thus, the aim of this pilot study was to compare the expression of inflammatory and osteoclastic activity markers in gingival tissues following FibReORS and ORS in the early postsurgical phase. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-six posterior sextants requiring osseous resective surgery were selected in 13 patients with chronic periodontitis: 13 sextants were randomly assigned to ORS and 13 to FibReORS in a split-mouth design. Gingival biospies were collected during the surgical sessions and at suture removal. Tissue samples were analysed to evaluate the expression of proinflammatory and immunity regulatory mediators (interleukin-1α, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 5, interferon-γ and tumour necrosis factor-α), cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14; a monocyte/macrophage marker) and TRAP (an osteoclast marker) using immunohistochemical, immunofluorescence and cytofluorimetric analyses, respectively. RESULTS Postsurgery, a higher number of inflammatory cells and stronger expression of proinflammatory cytokines were observed in the epithelium and connective tissue of ORS gingival samples compared with FibReORS gingival samples (p < 0.001). This was accompanied by increased numbers of CD14-positive and TRAP-positive cells. CONCLUSION Retention of the supracrestal connective fibres appears to reduce the postsurgical intensity of the host-mediated inflammatory response.

Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis (PO) leading to aseptic loosening, is the most common cause of failure of total hip replacement (THR) in the mid- to long-term. Polyethylene (PE) particulates from the wear of prosthesis liners are bioactive and are implicated in the initiation and or progression of osteolysis. Evidence exists that cells of the osteoblast/osteocyte lineage are affected by PE particles and contribute to the catabolic response by promoting osteoclastic bone resorption. In this study, we hypothesised that osteocytes contribute directly to PO by removing bone from their perilacunar matrix. Osteocyte responses to ultra-high molecular weight PE (UHMWPE) particles were examined in vitro in human primary osteocyte-like cultures, in vivo in the mouse calvarial osteolysis model, and in the acetabulum of patients undergoing revision total hip replacement (THR) surgery for PO. Osteocytes exposed to UHMWPE particles showed upregulated expression of catabolic markers, MMP-13, carbonic anhydrase 2 (CA2), cathepsin K (CTSK) and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), with no effect on cell viability, as assessed by Caspase 3 activity. Consistent with this catabolic activity causing perilacunar bone loss, histological analysis of calvarial sections from mice exposed to UHMWPE revealed a significant (p<0.001) increase in osteocyte lacunar area (Lac.Ar) compared to sham-operated animals. Furthermore, acetabular biopsies from patients with PO also showed significantly (p<0.001) increased osteocyte lacunar size in trabecular bone adjacent to PE particles, compared with osteocyte lacunar size in bone from primary THR patients. Together, these findings suggest a previously unrecognised action of UHMWPE wear particles on osteocytes, which directly results in a loss of osteocyte perilacunar bone. This action may exacerbate the indirect pro-osteoclastic action of UHMWPE-affected osteocytes, previously shown to contribute to aseptic loosening of orthopaedic implants. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE This study addresses the clinical problem of periprosthetic osteolysis, bone loss in response to polyethylene wear particles derived from materials used in orthopaedic implants. Periprosthetic osteolysis has been thought to be due largely to wear particles stimulating the activity of bone resorbing osteoclasts. However, in this study we demonstrate for the first time that polyethylene particles stimulate another type of bone loss, mediated by the direct activity of bone mineral embedded osteocytes, termed osteocytic osteolysis or osteocyte perilacunar remodelling. This study provides new mechanistic insight into wear-particle mediated bone loss and represents a new paradigm for the way in which bone cells, namely osteocytes, the key controlling cell type in bone, react to biomaterials.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening and periprosthetic infection leading to inflammatory osteolysis is a major complication associated with total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The liberation of bacterial products and/or implant-derived wear particles activates immune cells that produce pro-osteoclastogenic cytokines that enhance osteoclast recruitment and activity, leading to bone destruction and osteolysis. Therefore, agents that prevent the inflammatory response and/or attenuate excessive osteoclast (OC) formation and bone resorption offer therapeutic potential by prolonging the life of TJA implants. Alexidine dihydrochloride (AD) is a bisbiguanide compound commonly used as an oral disinfectant and in contact lens solutions. It possesses antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties; however, its effects on OC biology are poorly described. Here, we demonstrate that AD inhibits OC formation and bone resorption in vitro and exert prophylatic protection against LPS-induced osteolysis in vivo. Biochemical analysis demonstrated that AD suppressed receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (ERK, p38, and JNK), leading to the downregulation of NFATc1. Furthermore, AD disrupted F-actin ring formation and attenuated the ability of mature OC to resorb bone. Collectively, our findings suggest that AD may be a promising prophylactic anti-osteoclastic/resorptive agent for the treatment of osteolytic diseases caused by excessive OC formation and function.

Acta Biomater 2016; 30:311-318. [PMID: 26602825 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2015.11.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2015] [Revised: 11/13/2015] [Accepted: 11/16/2015] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
Peri-prosthetic osteolysis (PPO) occurs in response to prosthetic wear particles causing an inflammatory reaction in the surrounding tissue that leads to subsequent bone loss. Semaphorin-3a (SEM3A), neuropilin-1 (NRP1) and plexin-A1 (PLEXA1) are axonal guidance molecules that have been recently implicated in regulating bone metabolism. This study investigated SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 protein and mRNA expression in human PPO tissue and polyethylene (PE) particle-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-derived osteoclasts in vitro. In addition, the effects of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) on cultured osteoclasts was assessed. In PPO tissues, a granular staining pattern of SEM3A and NRP1 was observed within large multi-nucleated cells that contained prosthetic wear particles. Immunofluorescent staining confirmed the expression of SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 in large multi-nucleated human osteoclasts in vitro. Furthermore, SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 mRNA levels progressively increased throughout osteoclast differentiation induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL), and the presence of PE particles further increased mRNA expression of all three molecules. Soluble SEM3A was detected in human osteoclast culture supernatant at days 7 and 17 of culture, as assessed by ELISA. TNFα treatment for 72h markedly decreased the mRNA expression of SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 by human osteoclasts in vitro. Our findings suggest that SEM3A, NRP1 and PLEXA1 may have important roles in PPO, and their interactions, alone or as a complex, may have a role in pathological bone loss progression. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Peri-prosthetic osteolysis occurs in response to prosthetic wear particles causing an inflammatory reaction in the surrounding tissue that leads to subsequent bone loss. The rate of hip and knee arthroplasty is increasing by at least 5% per year. However, these joint replacements have a finite lifespan, with data from the National Joint Replacement Registry (Australia) showing that the major cause of failure of total hip replacements is aseptic loosening. In aseptic loosening, wear particles liberated from prostheses are phagocytosed by macrophages, leading to release of inflammatory cytokines and up-regulation of osteoclast formation and activity. Semaphorin-3a, neuropilin-1 and plexin-A1 are axonal guidance molecules that have been recently implicated in regulating bone metabolism. This is the first report to show that these molecules may be involved in the implant failure.

Abstract
Data from cross-sectional and prospective studies revealed that patients with epilepsy and on long-term treatment with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) are at increased risk for metabolic bone diseases. Bone diseases were reported in about 50% of patients on AEDs. Low bone mineral density, osteopenia/osteoporosis, osteomalacia, rickets, altered concentration of bone turnover markers and fractures were reported with phenobarbital, phenytoin, carbamazepine, valproate, oxcarbazepine and lamotrigine. The mechanisms for AEDs-induced bone diseases are heterogeneous and include hypovitaminosis D, hypocalcemia and direct acceleration of bone loss and/or reduction of bone formation. This article reviews the evidence, predictors and mechanisms of AEDs-induced bone abnormalities and its clinical implications. For patients on AEDs, regular monitoring of bone health is recommended. Prophylactic administration of calcium and vitamin D is recommended for all patients. Treatment doses of calcium and vitamin D and even anti-resorptive drug therapy are reserved for patients at high risk of pathological fracture.

Bromo-honaucin A inhibits osteoclastogenic differentiation in RAW 264.7 cells via Akt and ERK signaling pathways. Eur J Pharmacol 2015; 769:100-9.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are unique bone remodeling cells derived from multinucleated myeloid progenitor cells. They play homeostatic vital roles in skeletal modeling and remodeling but also destroy bone masses in many pathological conditions such as osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Receptor activation of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) is essential to osteoclastogenesis. In this study, we investigated the effects of bromo-honaucin A (Br-H A) isolated from Leptolyngbya crossbyana (cyanobacterium). To investigate the mechanism of the inhibitory effect of Br-H A on osteoclastogenesis, we employed Br-H Ain RANKL-treated murine monocyte/macrophage RAW 264.7 cells for osteoclastic differentiation in-vitro. The inhibitory effects on in-vitro osteoclastogenesis was evaluated by counting the number of Tartarate resistant acid phospatase (TRAP) positive multinucleated cells and by measuring the expression level of osteoclast-specific genes like matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), cathepsin K (CATH K), GRB2-associated-binding protein 2 (GAB2), c-terminal myc kinase (C-MYC), C-terminal Src kinase (C-SRC) and Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF). Moreover, Br-H A blocked the resorbing capacity of RAW 264.7 cells on calcium phosphate-coated plates. Finally, Br-H A clearly decreased the expression of Akt and also decreased the activation of ERK. Thus, the study identifies Br-H A as potent inhibitor potentialin the treatment of diseases involving abnormal bone lysis such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and periodontal bone degradation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) are being considered to treat chronic inflammatory diseases at low doses. Currently HDACi that are more specific are being developed to target particular HDACs; therefore, this study aimed to determine levels and distribution of class I and II HDAC in human gingival samples obtained from patients with chronic periodontitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Gingival biopsies were obtained from patients with and without (mild inflammation, no bone loss) periodontitis. Total RNA was isolated for real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction to determine expression of HDACs 1-10. Immunohistochemistry was used to determine protein distribution of HDACs 1, 5, 8 and 9. Factor VIII, CD3 and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) were detected in serial sections to identify blood vessels, lymphocytes, pre-osteoclasts and osteoclasts cells respectively. Tumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α) expression was also assessed. RESULTS mRNA for HDAC 1, 5, 8 and 9 were significantly upregulated in chronic periodontitis gingival tissues compared to non-periodontitis samples (p < 0.05). Significantly higher HDAC 1 protein expression was observed in chronic periodontitis samples (p < 0.05), and was associated with CD3, TRAP and TNF-α-positive cells. HDAC 1, 5, 8 and 9 were expressed strongly by the factor VIII-positive microvasculature in the chronic periodontitis gingival tissues. CONCLUSIONS HDAC 1, 5, 8 and 9 expression was higher in gingival tissues from patients with chronic periodontitis compared to non-periodontitis samples. Results suggest that these HDACs could therefore be targeted with specific acting HDACi.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a disease that decreases bone mass. The number of patients with osteoporosis has been increasing, including an increase in patients with bone fractures, which lead to higher medical costs. Osteoporosis treatment is all-important in preventing bone loss. One strategy for osteoporosis treatment is to inhibit osteoclastogenesis. Osteoclasts are bone-resorbing multinucleated cells, and overactive osteoclasts and/or their increased number are observed in bone disorders including osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Bioactivity-guided fractionations led to the isolation of alisol A 24-acetate from the dried tuber of Alisma canaliculatum. Alisol A 24-acetate inhibited RANKL-mediated osteoclast differentiation by downregulating NFATc1, which plays an essential role in osteoclast differentiation. Furthermore, it inhibited the expression of DC-STAMP and cathepsin K, which are related to cell-cell fusion of osteoclasts and bone resorption, respectively. Therefore, alisol A 24-acetate could be developed as a new structural scaffold for inhibitors of osteoclast differentiation in order to develop new drugs against osteoporosis.

Abstract
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) is well known as an osteoclast marker; however, a recent study from our group demonstrated enhanced number of TRAP + osteocytes as well as enhanced levels of TRAP located to intracellular vesicles in osteoblasts and osteocytes in experimental osteoporosis in rats. Such vesicles were especially abundant in osteoblasts and osteocytes in cancellous bone as well as close to bone surface and intracortical remodeling sites. To further investigate TRAP in osteoblasts and osteocytes, long bones from young, growing rats were examined. Immunofluorescence confocal microscopy displayed co-localization of TRAP with receptor activator of NF-KB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) in hypertrophic chondrocytes and diaphyseal osteocytes with Pearson's correlation coefficient ≥0.8. Transmission electron microscopy showed co-localization of TRAP and RANKL in lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1) + vesicles in osteoblasts and osteocytes supporting the results obtained by confocal microscopy. Recent in vitro data have demonstrated OPG as a traffic regulator for RANKL to LAMP1 + secretory lysosomes in osteoblasts and osteocytes, which seem to serve as temporary storage compartments for RANKL. Our in situ observations indicate that TRAP is located to RANKL-/OPG-positive secretory lysosomes in osteoblasts and osteocytes, which may have implications for osteocyte regulation of osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
As the only cells definitively shown to degrade bone, osteoclasts are key mediators of skeletal diseases including osteoporosis. Bone-forming osteoblasts, and hematopoietic and immune system cells, each influence osteoclast formation and function, but the reciprocal impact of osteoclasts on these cells is less well appreciated. We highlight here the functions that osteoclasts perform beyond bone resorption. First, we consider how osteoclast signals may contribute to bone formation by osteoblasts and to the pathology of bone lesions such as fibrous dysplasia and giant cell tumors. Second, we review the interaction of osteoclasts with the hematopoietic system, including the stem cell niche and adaptive immune cells. Connections between osteoclasts and other cells in the bone microenvironment are discussed within a clinically relevant framework.

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
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) is known as an osteoclast marker, but osteoblasts and osteocytes in the vicinity of bone remodeling sites also express TRAP. Cell culture studies suggest that osteoblasts endocytose osteoclastic TRAP for inactivation. To evaluate whether changes in osteoclast activity could alter TRAP expression in osteoblasts and/or osteocytes in vivo, we studied the ovariectomized and vitamin D-deficient rat (Ovx-D) and rats healing from rickets. Bone sections were analyzed for TRAP gene expression by in situ hybridization, TRAP protein by immunogold labeling, and TRAP enzyme activity using the fluorescent substrate ELF97. Osteoblasts and osteocytes close to intracortical remodeling sites and bone surfaces demonstrated TRAP, most prominently in cancellous bone and osteocytes. Intracellular TRAP was located to electron-dense vesicles with similar morphology in both cell types. Ovx-D increased osteoclast activity (p < 0.001) and ELF97⁺ osteocytes (p < 0.05) in cancellous bone, but no corresponding increase was observed in the osteocyte lacunar area. The level of TRAP⁺ vesicles in cortical osteoblasts (p < 0.01) in Ovx-D rats was also increased. Enhanced osteoclast activity was noted in healing rickets after 72 h (p < 0.05), but no differences in TRAP expression were detected in osteoblasts or osteocytes. Thus, increased osteoclast activity does not affect TRAP expression in osteoblasts and osteocytes, favoring the notion that increased TRAP in these cells is rather due to increased synthesis. Although the role of TRAP in osteoblasts and osteocytes remains elusive, we speculate that the function is related to the capability of the enzyme to regulate the phosphorylation of proteins known to be expressed by these cells.

Anti-osteoclastogenic activity of praeruptorin A via inhibition of p38/Akt-c-Fos-NFATc1 signaling and PLCγ-independent Ca2+ oscillation. PLoS One 2014; 9:e88974.

Abstract
Background A decrease of bone mass is a major risk factor for fracture. Several natural products have traditionally been used as herbal medicines to prevent and/or treat bone disorders including osteoporosis. Praeruptorin A is isolated from the dry root extract of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn and has several biological activities, but its anti-osteoporotic activity has not been studied yet. Materials and Methods The effect of praeruptorin A on the differentiation of bone marrow–derived macrophages into osteoclasts was examined by phenotype assay and confirmed by real-time PCR and immunoblotting. The involvement of NFATc1 in the anti-osteoclastogenic action of praeruptorin A was evaluated by its lentiviral ectopic expression. Intracellular Ca2+ levels were also measured. Results Praeruptorin A inhibited the RANKL-stimulated osteoclast differentiation accompanied by inhibition of p38 and Akt signaling, which could be the reason for praeruptorin A-downregulated expression levels of c-Fos and NFATc1, transcription factors that regulate osteoclast-specific genes, as well as osteoclast fusion-related molecules. The anti-osteoclastogenic effect of praeruptorin A was rescued by overexpression of NFATc1. Praeruptorin A strongly prevented the RANKL-induced Ca2+ oscillation without any changes in the phosphorylation of PLCγ. Conclusion Praeruptorin A could exhibit its anti-osteoclastogenic activity by inhibiting p38/Akt-c-Fos-NFATc1 signaling and PLCγ-independent Ca2+ oscillation.

Mechanisms of osteoclast-dependent bone formation. BONEKEY REPORTS 2013; 2:449.

Abstract
Should we believe that osteoclasts are only involved in bone resorption? What about their contribution to bone formation? In this article I will review evidence that bone formation can be regulated by osteoclasts. Why is this? Likely because in the physiologic condition of bone remodeling, bone resorption and formation are balanced, and there is no better way to control this equilibrium than through a concerted action between the two cell types. Although the influence of osteoblasts on osteoclastic bone resorption is well documented and consolidated over time, what osteoclasts do to regulate osteoblast activity is still matter of intense investigation. The original hypothesis that all is in the osteoblast-seeking factors stored in the bone matrix, released and activated during bone resorption, is now being challenged by several studies, suggesting that osteoclasts are also capable of producing 'clastokines' that regulate osteoblast performance. Indeed, several of them have been demonstrated to orchestrate osteoclast-osteoblast activities. However, we are probably still at the dawn of a new era, and future work will tell us whether any of these clastokines can be exploited to stimulate bone formation and rebalance bone remodeling in skeletal diseases.

Polyphosphate-mediated inhibition of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase and suppression of bone resorption of osteoclasts. PLoS One 2013; 8:e78612.

Abstract
Inorganic polyphosphate (poly(P)) has recently been found to play an important role in bone formation. In this study, we found that tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), which is abundantly expressed in osteoclasts, has polyphosphatase activity that degrades poly(P) and yields Pi as well as shorter poly(P) chains. Since the TRAP protein that coprecipitated with anti-TRAP monoclonal antibodies exhibited both polyphosphatase and the original phosphatase activity, poly(P) degradation activity is dependent on TRAP and not on other contaminating enzymes. The ferrous chelator α, α’-bipyridyl, which inhibits the TRAP-mediated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), had no effect on such poly(P) degradation, suggesting that the degradation is not dependent on ROS. In addition, shorter chain length poly(P) molecules were better substrates than longer chains for TRAP, and poly(P) inhibited the phosphatase activity of TRAP depending on its chain length. The IC50 of poly(P) against the original phosphatase activity of TRAP was 9.8 µM with an average chain length more than 300 phosphate residues, whereas the IC50 of poly(P) with a shorter average chain length of 15 phosphate residues was 8.3 mM. Finally, the pit formation activity of cultured rat osteoclasts differentiated by RANKL and M-CSF were markedly inhibited by poly(P), while no obvious decrease in cell number or differentiation efficiency was observed for poly(P). In particular, the inhibition of pit formation by long chain poly(P) with 300 phosphate residues was stronger than that of shorter chain poly(P). Thus, poly(P) may play an important regulatory role in osteoclastic bone resorption by inhibiting TRAP activity, which is dependent on its chain length.

Abstract
In response to various stresses including viral infection, nutrient deprivation, and stress to the endoplasmic reticulum, eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha (eIF2α) is phosphorylated to cope with stress induced apoptosis. Although bone cells are sensitive to environmental stresses that alter the phosphorylation level of eIF2α, little is known about the role of eIF2α mediated signaling during the development of bone-resorbing osteoclasts. Using two chemical agents (salubrinal and guanabenz) that selectively inhibit de-phosphorylation of eIF2α, we evaluated the effects of phosphorylation of eIF2α on osteoclastogenesis of RAW264.7 pre-osteoclasts as well as development of MC3T3 E1 osteoblast-like cells. The result showed that salubrinal and guanabenz stimulated matrix deposition of osteoblasts through upregulation of activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4). The result also revealed that these agents reduced expression of the nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (NFATc1) and inhibited differentiation of RAW264.7 cells to multi-nucleated osteoclasts. Partial silencing of eIF2α with RNA interference reduced suppression of salubrinal/guanabenz-driven downregulation of NFATc1. Collectively, we demonstrated that the elevated phosphorylation level of eIF2α not only stimulates osteoblastogenesis but also inhibit osteoclastogenesis through regulation of ATF4 and NFATc1. The results suggest that eIF2α-mediated signaling might provide a novel therapeutic target for preventing bone loss in osteoporosis.
