Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) plays a pivotal role in maintaining calcium homeostasis, largely by modulating bone remodeling processes. Its effects on bone are notably dependent on the duration and frequency of exposure. Specifically, PTH can initiate both bone formation and resorption, with the outcome being influenced by the manner of PTH administration: continuous or intermittent. In continuous administration, PTH tends to promote bone resorption, possibly by regulating certain genes within bone cells. Conversely, intermittent exposure generally favors bone formation, possibly through transient gene activation. PTH's role extends to various aspects of bone cell activity. It directly influences skeletal stem cells, osteoblastic lineage cells, osteocytes, and T cells, playing a critical role in bone generation. Simultaneously, it indirectly affects osteoclast precursor cells and osteoclasts, and has a direct impact on T cells, contributing to its role in bone resorption. Despite these insights, the intricate mechanisms through which PTH acts within the bone marrow niche are not entirely understood. This article reviews the dual roles of PTH-catabolic and anabolic-on bone cells, highlighting the cellular and molecular pathways involved in these processes. The complex interplay of these factors in bone remodeling underscores the need for further investigation to fully comprehend PTH's multifaceted influence on bone health.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2023; 120:e2312677120. [PMID: 37931101 PMCID: PMC10655581 DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2312677120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/08/2023] Open
Abstract
We have previously reported that the cortical bone thinning seen in mice lacking the Wnt signaling antagonist Sfrp4 is due in part to impaired periosteal apposition. The periosteum contains cells which function as a reservoir of stem cells and contribute to cortical bone expansion, homeostasis, and repair. However, the local or paracrine factors that govern stem cells within the periosteal niche remain elusive. Cathepsin K (Ctsk), together with additional stem cell surface markers, marks a subset of periosteal stem cells (PSCs) which possess self-renewal ability and inducible multipotency. Sfrp4 is expressed in periosteal Ctsk-lineage cells, and Sfrp4 global deletion decreases the pool of PSCs, impairs their clonal multipotency for differentiation into osteoblasts and chondrocytes and formation of bone organoids. Bulk RNA sequencing analysis of Ctsk-lineage PSCs demonstrated that Sfrp4 deletion down-regulates signaling pathways associated with skeletal development, positive regulation of bone mineralization, and wound healing. Supporting these findings, Sfrp4 deletion hampers the periosteal response to bone injury and impairs Ctsk-lineage periosteal cell recruitment. Ctsk-lineage PSCs express the PTH receptor and PTH treatment increases the % of PSCs, a response not seen in the absence of Sfrp4. Importantly, in the absence of Sfrp4, PTH-dependent increase in cortical thickness and periosteal bone formation is markedly impaired. Thus, this study provides insights into the regulation of a specific population of periosteal cells by a secreted local factor, and shows a central role for Sfrp4 in the regulation of Ctsk-lineage periosteal stem cell differentiation and function.

Atf7ip Inhibits Osteoblast Differentiation via Negative Regulation of the Sp7 Transcription Factor. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24054305. [PMID: 36901736 PMCID: PMC10002255 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24054305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Revised: 02/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Epigenetic modifications are critical for cell differentiation and growth. As a regulator of H3K9 methylation, Setdb1 is implicated in osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. The activity and nucleus localization of Setdb1 are regulated by its binding partner, Atf7ip. However, whether Atf7ip is involved in the regulation of osteoblast differentiation remains largely unclear. In the present study, we found that Atf7ip expression was upregulated during the osteogenesis of primary bone marrow stromal cells and MC3T3-E1 cells, and was induced in PTH-treated cells. The overexpression of Atf7ip impaired osteoblast differentiation in MC3T3-E1 cells regardless of PTH treatment, as measured by the expression of osteoblast differentiation markers, Alp-positive cells, Alp activity, and calcium deposition. Conversely, the depletion of Atf7ip in MC3T3-E1 cells promoted osteoblast differentiation. Compared with the control mice, animals with Atf7ip deletion in the osteoblasts (Oc-Cre;Atf7ipf/f) showed more bone formation and a significant increase in the bone trabeculae microarchitecture, as reflected by μ-CT and bone histomorphometry. Mechanistically, Atf7ip contributed to the nucleus localization of Setdb1 in MC3T3-E1, but did not affect Setdb1 expression. Atf7ip negatively regulated Sp7 expression, and through specific siRNA, Sp7 knockdown attenuated the enhancing role of Atf7ip deletion in osteoblast differentiation. Through these data, we identified Atf7ip as a novel negative regulator of osteogenesis, possibly via its epigenetic regulation of Sp7 expression, and demonstrated that Atf7ip inhibition is a potential therapeutic measure for enhancing bone formation.

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate the potential effects of chronic stress on periodontal bone remodeling and its mechanism during orthodontic tooth movement in rats. Forty-eight male SD rats aged 8 weeks were randomly divided into control group and chronic stress group. Chronic unpredictable mild stress model (CUMS) was established in the stress group, which was validated by behavioral experiment as well as cortisol (CORT) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ATCH) levels. Then, the two groups were further divided into three distinct groups, namely group with no orthodontic force, group with 30 g orthodontic force and group with 50 g orthodontic force respectively to construct orthodontic tooth movement model. The rats were sacrificed after 14 days and maxilla on the loading side was obtained to measure tooth movement distance. It was found that compared with the control group, the chronic stress group displayed increased parathyroid hormone (PTH), amino terminal peptide of type I procollagen (PINP) and c-terminal peptide of type I collagen branch (CTX) levels as measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Hematoxylin and Eosin (HE) and TRAP staining showed fewer osteoblasts and more number of osteoclasts. The results of western blot showed no significant change in expression of Adenylate cyclase (AC) but increased phospholipase C (PLC) levels were noted. In addition, increased NF-κB expression was observed by immunohistochemistry. Overall, chronic stress can affect bone remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement by increasing the content of PTH in the blood and increasing PLC and NF-κB.

J Periodontal Res 2021; 56:885-896. [PMID: 33856055 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12885] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2020] [Revised: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 04/02/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the effects of local application of parathyroid hormone (PTH) or parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) on osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). BACKGROUND Periodontal bone remodeling is the crucial biological process in the OTM that involves both bone resorption and formation, with the former more important as the initiator. PTH or PTHrP both play dual roles in bone remodeling regulation, and the balance may shift to the bone resorption side when they are given continuously, suggesting them as potential candidate medicine for OTM acceleration. METHODS A total of 40 rats underwent orthodontic mesialization of the maxillary first molars and received no micro-perforation (MOP), or MOP followed by injection of temperature-sensitive hydrogel containing PTH, PTHrP, or normal saline. The rats were sacrificed after 2-week OTM, except for the relapse groups, which had one more week of observation after removal of the force appliances. The amount of tooth movement, rate of relapse after OTM, and effects on the bone remodeling were assessed through micro-computed tomography (μCT) analysis, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay, alizarin red staining, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis, Western blot (WB), and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The effects of PTHrP on the osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) were explored in vitro. RESULTS The cumulative release of PTH or PTHrP from PECE hydrogels was beyond 75% at 14 days in a sustained manner. After the intervention in vivo, the distance of OTM in the PTH (0.78 ± 0.06 mm) or PTHrP (0.81 ± 0.04 mm) group was significantly larger than that of the MOP only (0.51 ± 0.04 mm) or the no MOP (0.46 ± 0.05 mm) group. Moreover, PTH injection significantly reduced the rate of relapse after OTM (25.7 ± 4.3%) compared to the control (69.6 ± 6.1%). μCT analysis showed decreased BV/TV, BS/BV, and Tb.N, while increased Tb.Sp of alveolar bone in the PTH or PTHrP group. There were also more TRAP-positive osteoclasts in the PTH or PTHrP group with a significantly enhanced ratio of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG). The protein expressions of PTH/PTHrP type 1 receptor (PTHR1), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN), runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), and β-catenin were significantly increased in the PTH or PTHrP group, as well as the gene expressions of Pth1r, Bglap, and Alpl. There was no significant difference between the effects of PTH and PTHrP. Nevertheless, inhibition of PTHrP on the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs was detected in vitro with decreased expression of OCN, RUNX2, COL-1, and ALP. CONCLUSION Local injection of either PTH or PTHrP carried by controlled release PECE hydrogel similarly enhances OTM in rats through regulating periodontal bone remodeling, which deserves further study for potential clinical application.

J Bone Miner Res 2020; 35:2289-2300. [PMID: 32634285 PMCID: PMC9361511 DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.4128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2020] [Revised: 06/24/2020] [Accepted: 07/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
CCN1/Cyr61 is a dynamically expressed matricellular protein that serves regulatory functions in multiple tissues. Previous studies from our laboratory demonstrated that CCN1 regulates bone maintenance. Using an osteoblast and osteocyte conditional knockout mouse model (Ccn1OCN ), we found a significant decrease in trabecular and cortical bone mass in vivo, in part through suppression of Wnt signaling since the expression of the Wnt antagonist sclerostin (SOST) is increased in osteoblasts lacking CCN1. It has been established that parathyroid hormone (PTH) signaling also suppresses SOST expression in bone. We therefore investigated the interaction between CCN1 and PTH-mediated responses in this study. We find that loss of Ccn1 in osteoblasts leads to impaired responsiveness to anabolic intermittent PTH treatment in Ccn1OCN mice in vivo and in osteoblasts from these mice in vitro. Analysis of Ccn1OCN mice demonstrated a significant decrease in parathyroid hormone receptor-1 (PTH1R) expression in osteoblasts in vivo and in vitro. We investigated the regulatory role of a non-canonical integrin-binding domain of CCN1 because several studies indicate that specific integrins are critical to mechanotransduction, a PTH-dependent response, in bone. These data suggest that CCN1 regulates the expression of PTH1R through interaction with the αvβ3 and/or αvβ5 integrin complexes. Osteoblasts that express a mutant form of CCN1 that cannot interact with αvβ3/β5 integrin demonstrate a significant decrease in mRNA and protein expression of both PTH1R and αv integrin. Overall, these data suggest that the αvβ3/β5-binding domain of CCN1 is required to endow PTH signaling with anabolic activity in bone cells. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Physical & mental activities enhance the neuroprotective effect of vinpocetine & coenzyme Q10 combination against Alzheimer & bone remodeling in rats. Life Sci 2019; 229:21-35. [PMID: 31063734 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2019.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2019] [Revised: 04/22/2019] [Accepted: 05/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a progressive decline of cognitive abilities as well as bone loss. Physical and mental activities maintain cognitive functions as well as increase bone mass by inhibiting bone resorption. VIN and CoQ10 are neuroprotective drugs that possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. AIMS To study the effect of PH&M on enhancing the neuroprotective role of VIN and CoQ10 combination during induction of AD model in rats besides their role against bone mass loss associated with AD model. MAIN METHODS Six groups of rats were received saline, AlCl3, and PH&M daily either alone or with a combination of VIN and CoQ10 for 4 weeks. Various biochemical analyses were performed to evaluate the extent of brain damage such as ACHE, β-secretase, chitinase, Aβ, tau protein, and monoamines besides the inflammatory and antioxidant parameters. Serum levels of minerals as well as 25-OHD, PTH, RANKL, and OPG levels were measured to detect the extent of bone impairment. Also, histopathological changes were evaluated in different brain regions and hind paw. KEY FINDINGS VIN and CoQ10 combination together with PH&M significantly attenuated the neurodegeneration induced by AlCl3 administration through the improvement of AD markers in brain tissue as well as oxidant and inflammatory markers. Bone resorption markers, serum minerals, and PTH levels were also normalized too. SIGNIFICANCE Neuroprotective drugs together with PH&M have a more protective effect against AD and bone loss rather than PH&M alone.
