Differential effects of the lipidic and ionic microenvironment on NPP1's phosphohydrolase and phosphodiesterase activities. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. BIOMEMBRANES 2024; 1866:184292.

Abstract
Ecto-nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (NPP1) is an enzyme present in matrix vesicles (MV). NPP1 participates on the regulation of bone formation by producing pyrophosphate (PPi) from adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Here, we have used liposomes bearing dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), sphingomyelin (SM), and cholesterol (Chol) harboring NPP1 to mimic the composition of MV lipid rafts to investigate ionic and lipidic influence on NPP1 activity and mineral propagation. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed that DPPC-liposomes had spherical and smooth surface. The presence of SM and Chol elicited rough and smooth surface, respectively. NPP1 insertion produced protrusions in all the liposome surface. Maximum phosphodiesterase activity emerged at 0.082 M ionic strength, whereas maximum phosphomonohydrolase activity arose at low ionic strength. Phosphoserine-Calcium Phosphate Complex (PS-CPLX) and amorphous calcium-phosphate (ACP) induced mineral propagation in DPPC- and DPPC:SM-liposomes and in DPPC:Chol-liposomes, respectively. Mineral characterization revealed the presence of bands assigned to HAp in the mineral propagated by NPP1 harbored in DPPC-liposomes without nucleators or in DPPC:Chol-liposomes with ACP nucleators. These data show that studying how the ionic and lipidic environment affects NPP1 properties is important, especially for HAp obtained under controlled conditions in vitro.

Abstract
This review summarizes the current knowledge of fibroblast growth factor 23 signaling in bone and its role in the disease pathology of X-linked hypophosphatemia. Craniosynostosis is an under-recognized complication of X-linked hypophosphatemia. The clinical implications and potential cellular mechanisms invoked by increased fibroblast growth factor 23 signaling causing craniosynostosis are reviewed. Knowledge gaps are identified and provide direction for future clinical and basic science studies.

Abstract
Bone growth plate abnormalities and skull shape defects are seen in hypophosphatasia, a heritable disorder in humans that occurs due to the deficiency of tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP, Alpl) enzyme activity. The abnormal development of the cranial base growth plates (synchondroses) and abnormal skull shapes have also been demonstrated in global Alpl-/- mice. To distinguish local vs. systemic effects of TNAP on skull development, we utilized P0-Cre to knockout Alpl only in cranial neural crest-derived tissues using Alpl flox mice. Here, we show that Alpl deficiency using P0-Cre in cranial neural crest leads to skull shape defects and the deficient growth of the intersphenoid synchondrosis (ISS). ISS chondrocyte abnormalities included increased proliferation in resting and proliferative zones with decreased apoptosis in hypertrophic zones. ColX expression was increased, which is indicative of premature differentiation in the absence of Alpl. Sox9 expression was increased in both the resting and prehypertrophic zones of mutant mice. The expression of Parathyroid hormone related protein (PTHrP) and Indian hedgehog homolog (IHH) were also increased. Finally, cranial base organ culture revealed that inorganic phosphate (Pi) and pyrophosphate (PPi) have specific effects on cell signaling and phenotype changes in the ISS. Together, these results demonstrate that the TNAP expression downstream of Alpl in growth plate chondrocytes is essential for normal development, and that the mechanism likely involves Sox9, PTHrP, IHH and PPi.

Abstract
Microbes colonize anatomical sites in health to form commensal microbial communities (e.g., commensal gut microbiota, commensal skin microbiota, commensal oral microbiota). Commensal microbiota has indirect effects on host growth and maturation through interactions with the host immune system. The commensal microbiota was recently introduced as a novel regulator of skeletal growth and morphology at noncraniofacial sites. Further, we and others have shown that commensal gut microbes, such as segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB), contribute to noncraniofacial skeletal growth and maturation. However, commensal microbiota effects on craniofacial skeletal growth and morphology are unclear. To determine the commensal microbiota's role in craniofacial skeletal growth and morphology, we performed craniometric and bone mineral density analyses on skulls from 9-week-old female C57BL/6T germ-free (GF) mice (no microbes), excluded-flora (EF) specific-pathogen-free mice (commensal microbiota), and murine-pathogen-free (MPF) specific-pathogen-free mice (commensal microbiota with SFB). Investigations comparing EF and GF mice revealed that commensal microbiota impacted the size and shape of the craniofacial skeleton. EF versus GF mice exhibited an elongated gross skull length. Cranial bone length analyses normalized to skull length showed that EF versus GF mice had enhanced frontal bone length and reduced cranial base length. The shortened cranial base in EF mice was attributed to decreased presphenoid, basisphenoid, and basioccipital bone lengths. Investigations comparing MPF mice and EF mice demonstrated that commensal gut microbes played a role in craniofacial skeletal morphology. Cranial bone length analyses normalized to skull length showed that MPF versus EF mice had reduced frontal bone length and increased cranial base length. The elongated cranial base in MPF mice was due to enhanced presphenoid bone length. This work, which introduces the commensal microbiota as a contributor to craniofacial skeletal growth, underscores that noninvasive interventions in the gut microbiome could potentially be employed to modify craniofacial skeletal morphology. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
One of the contributors to atherogenesis is enzymatically modified LDL (eLDL). eLDL was detected in all stages of aortic valve sclerosis and was demonstrated to trigger the activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), which has been identified as a pro-inflammatory protein in atherosclerosis. In this study, we investigated the influence of eLDL on IL-6 and IL-33 induction, and also the impact of eLDL on calcification in aortic valve stenosis (AS). eLDL upregulated phosphate-induced calcification in valvular interstitial cells (VICs)/myofibroblasts isolated from diseased aortic valves, as demonstrated by alizarin red staining. Functional studies demonstrated activation of p38 MAPK as well as an altered gene expression of osteogenic genes known to be involved in vascular calcification. In parallel with the activation of p38 MAPK, eLDL also induced upregulation of the cytokines IL-6 and IL-33. The results suggest a pro-calcifying role of eLDL in AS via induction of IL-6 and IL-33.

Histological Assessment of Endochondral Ossification and Bone Mineralization. ENDOCRINES 2023.

Abstract
Finely tuned cartilage mineralization, endochondral ossification, and normal bone formation are necessary for normal bone growth. Hypertrophic chondrocytes in the epiphyseal cartilage secrete matrix vesicles, which are small extracellular vesicles initiating mineralization, into the intercolumnar septa but not the transverse partitions of the cartilage columns. Bone-specific blood vessels invade the unmineralized transverse septum, exposing the mineralized cartilage cores. Many osteoblast precursors migrate to the cartilage cores, where they synthesize abundant bone matrices, and mineralize them in a process of matrix vesicle-mediated bone mineralization. Matrix vesicle-mediated mineralization concentrates calcium (Ca) and inorganic phosphates (Pi), which are converted into hydroxyapatite crystals. These crystals grow radially and are eventually get out of the vesicles to form spherical mineralized nodules, leading to collagen mineralization. The influx of Ca and Pi into the matrix vesicle is regulated by several enzymes and transporters such as TNAP, ENPP1, PiT1, PHOSPHO1, annexins, and others. Such matrix vesicle-mediated mineralization is regulated by osteoblastic activities, synchronizing the synthesis of organic bone material. However, osteocytes reportedly regulate peripheral mineralization, e.g., osteocytic osteolysis. The interplay between cartilage mineralization and vascular invasion during endochondral ossification, as well as that of osteoblasts and osteocytes for normal mineralization, appears to be crucial for normal bone growth.
