Abstract
BACKGROUND Electrospun nanofibers could simulate the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) of the host bone, while minocycline (MINO) is a broad-spectrum tetracycline antibiotic which has been found to have multiple non-antibiotics biological effects that promotes osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo. OBJECTIVE The present study aims at constructing a polylactic acid (PLA) electrospun nanofiber membrane loaded with MINO to enhance Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) adhesion and proliferation for early clinical treatment. METHODS The MINO-PLA membrane were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and in vitro drug release study. The antibacterial ability was also investigated. In addition, in vitro cellular proliferation experiment was performed to verify whether the PLA electrospun nanofibers membrane loaded with MINO enhance BMSCs adhesion and proliferation. RESULTS Analyzing the drug release and cell growth results, it was found that only the effective concentration of MINO-PLA could help the growth of BMSCs in the short term. This is related to the drug release rate of MINO-PLA and the initial concentration of MINO. CONCLUSION This study shows that by controlling the concentration and release rate of MINO with electrospinning PLA, BMSCs could proliferate on it, and a new bone repair material had been made in this study.

Effect of doxycycline doped nanoparticles on osteogenic/cementogenic and anti-inflammatory responses of human cells derived from the periodontal ligament. J Dent 2023; 137:104668. [PMID: 37597689 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2023.104668] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/21/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This work aimed to evaluate if doxycycline-doped polymeric nanoparticles possessed any anti-inflammatory effect and promote osteogenic/cementogenic differentiation of stem cells from human periodontal ligament (PDLSCs). METHODS The polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) were produced by a polymerization/precipitation process and doped with doxycycline (Dox-NPs). PDLSCs were cultured in the presence or absence of the NPs under osteogenic medium or IL-1β treatment. Cells' differentiation was assessed by gene expression analysis of osteogenic/cementogenic markers alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2). An anti-inflammatory effect was also ascertained by analyzing IL-1β gene expression. Adipogenic and chondrogenic differentiation was used to confirm the multipotency of PDLSCs. RESULTS Gene expression of ALP and RUNX2 in PDLSCs was significantly upregulated by the osteogenic medium (ALP: p<0.001; RUNX2: p = 0.005) while Dox-NPs further enhanced ALP gene expression of PDLSCs treated with the osteogenic medium. Furthermore, Dox-NPs suppressed the up-regulation of IL-1β when cells were subjected to an inflammatory challenge. CONCLUSIONS Dox-NPs enhanced PDLSCs differentiation into osteoblasts/cementoblasts lineages while providing an anti-inflammatory effect. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Due to their biocompatibility as well as anti-inflammatory and osteogenic/cementogenic effects, Dox-NPs are potential candidates for being used in periodontal regeneration.

The Role of Doxycycline and IL-17 in Regenerative Potential of Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells: Implications in Periodontitis. Biomolecules 2023; 13:1437.

Abstract
Periodontitis (PD) is a degenerative, bacteria-induced chronic disease of periodontium causing bone resorption and teeth loss. It includes a strong reaction of immune cells through the secretion of proinflammatory factors such as Interleukin-17 (IL-17). PD treatment may consider systemic oral antibiotics application, including doxycycline (Dox), exhibiting antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties along with supportive activity in wound healing, thus affecting alveolar bone metabolism. In the present study, we aimed to determine whether Dox can affect the regenerative potential of periodontal ligament mesenchymal stem cells (PDLSCs) modulated by IL-17 in terms of cell migration, osteogenic potential, bioenergetics and expression of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2). Our findings indicate that Dox reduces the stimulatory effect of IL-17 on migration and MMP-2 expression in PDLSCs. Furthermore, Dox stimulates osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs, annulling the inhibitory effect of IL-17 on PDLSCs osteogenesis. In addition, analyses of mitochondrial respiration reveal that Dox decreases oxygen consumption rate in PDLSCs exposed to IL-17, suggesting that changes in metabolic performance can be involved in Dox-mediated effects on PDLSCs. The pro-regenerative properties of Dox in inflammatory microenvironment candidates Dox in terms of regenerative therapy of PD-affected periodontium are observed.

Abstract
Tetracyclines (TCs) are a class of broad-spectrum antibiotics with diverse pharmacotherapeutic properties due to their various functional groups being attached to a common core structure. Beyond their antibacterial activity, TCs trigger pleiotropic effects on eukaryotic cells, including anti-inflammatory and potentially osteogenic capabilities. Consequently, TCs hold promise for repurposing in various clinical applications, including bone-related conditions. This study presents the first comprehensive comparison of the in vitro osteogenic potential of four TCs-tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline, and sarecycline, within human mesenchymal stem cells. Cultures were characterized for metabolic activity, cell morphology and cytoskeleton organization, osteogenic gene expression, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and the activation of relevant signaling pathways. TCs stimulated actin remodeling processes, inducing morphological shifts consistent with osteogenic differentiation. Osteogenic gene expression and ALP activity supported the osteoinduction by TCs, demonstrating significant increases in ALP levels and the upregulation of RUNX2, SP7, and SPARC genes. Minocycline and sarecycline exhibited the most potent osteogenic induction, comparable to conventional osteogenic inducers. Signaling pathway analysis revealed that tetracycline and doxycycline activate the Wnt pathway, while minocycline and sarecycline upregulated Hedgehog signaling. Overall, the present findings suggest that TCs promote osteogenic differentiation through distinct pathways, making them promising candidates for targeted therapy in specific bone-related disorders.

Abstract
This in vivo study reports the influence of minocycline-HCl administration on extra-skeletal bone generation in a Guided Bone Augmentation model, utilizing titanium caps placed on the intact as well as perforated calvaria of rats. The test group was administered 0.5 mg/mL minocycline-HCl with the drinking water, and the amount of bone tissue in the caps was quantified at three time points (4, 8 and 16 weeks). A continuously increased tissue fill was observed in all groups over time. The administration of minocycline-HCl as well as perforation of the calvaria increased this effect, especially with regard to mineralization. The strongest tissue augmentation, with 1.8 times that of the untreated control group, and, at the same time, the most mineralized tissue (2.3× over untreated control), was produced in the combination of both treatments, indicating that systemic administration of minocycline-HCl has an accelerating and enhancing effect on vertical bone augmentation.

Abstract
Bone diseases are a global public concern that affect millions of people. Even though current treatments present high efficacy, they also show several side effects. In this sense, the development of biocompatible nanoparticles and macroscopic scaffolds has been shown to improve bone regeneration while diminishing side effects. In this review, we present a new trend in these materials, reporting several examples of materials that specifically recognize several agents of the bone microenvironment. Briefly, we provide a subtle introduction to the bone microenvironment. Then, the different targeting agents are exposed. Afterward, several examples of nanoparticles and scaffolds modified with these agents are shown. Finally, we provide some future perspectives and conclusions. Overall, this topic presents high potential to create promising translational strategies for the treatment of bone-related diseases. We expect this review to provide a comprehensive description of the incipient state-of-the-art of bone-targeting agents in bone regeneration.

Abstract
Surgical trauma in those under a prolonged use of bisphosphonates, can lead to mediation-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). This study aimed to evaluate the preventive therapies for MRONJ. Following four cycles of zoledronic acid administration, Wistar rats had their molar extracted, and were organized into nine treatment groups: negative control group (NCG), treated with saline solution and blood-clot in the alveolus; positive control group (PCG), with blood-clot in the alveolus; BG, β-tricalcium phosphate-based biomaterial; DG, 10% doxycycline gel; aG, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy; and DBG, aBG, aDG, and aDBG, using combination therapy. After 28 days, the lowest bone volume (BV/TV) was reported in PCG (42.17% ± 2.65), and the highest in aDBG (69.85% ± 6.25) (p < 0.05). The higher values of daily mineral apposition rate were recorded in aDBG (2.64 ± 0.48) and DBG (2.30 ± 0.37) (p < 0.001). Moreover, aDBG presented with the highest neoformed bone area (82.44% ± 2.69) (p < 0.05). Non-vital bone was reported only in the PCG (37.94 ± 18.70%). Owing to the key role of the biomaterial, the combination approach (aDBG) was the most effective in preventing MRONJ following tooth extraction.

Abstract
Polymeric membranes are employed in guided bone regeneration (GBR) as physical barriers to facilitate bone in-growth. A bioactive and biomimetic membrane with the ability to participate in the healing and regeneration of the bone is necessary. The aim of the present study was to analyze how novel silicon dioxide composite membranes functionalized with zinc or doxycycline can modulate the osteoblasts' proliferation, differentiation, and expression of selected antigenic markers related to immunomodulation. Nanostructured acrylate-based membranes were developed, blended with silica, and functionalized with zinc or doxycycline. They were subjected to MG63 osteoblast-like cells culturing. Proliferation was assessed by MTT-assay, differentiation by evaluating the alkaline phosphatase activity by a spectrophotometric method and antigenic phenotype was assessed by flow cytometry for selected markers. Mean comparisons were conducted by one-way ANOVA and Tukey tests (p < 0.05). The blending of silica nanoparticles in the tested non-resorbable polymeric scaffold improved the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts, but doxycycline doped scaffolds attained the best results. Osteoblasts cultured on doxycycline functionalized membranes presented higher expression of CD54, CD80, CD86, and HLA-DR, indicating a beneficial immunomodulation activity. Doxycycline doped membranes may be a potential candidate for use in GBR procedures in several challenging pathologies, including periodontal disease.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus comprehends a group of chronic metabolic disorders, associated with damage and dysfunction of distinct tissues, including bone. At the cellular level, an impaired osteoblastogenesis has been reported, affecting the viability, proliferation and functionality of osteoblasts and precursor populations, hampering the bone metabolic activity, remodeling and healing. Tetracyclines embrace a group of broad-spectrum antibacterial compounds with potential anabolic effects on the bone tissue, through antibacterial-independent mechanisms. Accordingly, this study aims to address the modulatory capability and associated molecular signaling of a low dosage doxycycline - a semi-synthetic tetracycline, in the functional activity of osteoblastic progenitor cells (bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells), established from a translational diabetic experimental model. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells were isolated from streptozotocin-induced diabetic Wistar rat with proven osteopenia. Cultures were characterized, in the presence of doxycycline (1 μg ml-1) for proliferation, metabolic activity, apoptosis, collagen synthesis and relevant gene expression with the osteogenic and adipogenic program. The activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway was further detailed. Doxycycline normalized the viability, proliferation and metabolic activity of the established cultures, further decreasing cell apoptosis, to levels similar to control. The addition of this drug to the culture environment further increased the osteogenic activation, upregulating the expression of osteogenic markers and collagen synthesis, at the same time that a decreased adipogenic priming was attained. These processes were found to me mediated, at least in part, by the restoration of the signaling through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

Abstract
Minocycline (MINO) is a tetracycline antibiotic effective against most of the bacteria microorganisms related to periodontal disease. Additionally, MINO promotes bone in vitro and in vivo. The objective of the present study was to establish the protocol for the preparation of MINO-loaded poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (MINO-PLGA) electrospun membranes and to evaluate their effect on osteogenesis in vitro and in a rat model of periodontitis. The characterization of MINO-PLGA electrospun membranes was assessed by scanning electron microscopy, laser scanning confocal microscopy, and contact angle measurement. The drug release study showed a sustained diffusion of MINO from electrospun membranes over a period of 40 d. The MINO-PLGA membranes containing 2% of the drug exhibited better support of osteoblast proliferation and adhesion and was subsequently used in vivo in an experimental periodontitis model. Its therapeutic potential was evaluated by the measurement of alveolar bone loss (ABL), bone volume analysis, histological analysis, and immunohistochemistry. MINO-PLGA membrane increased alveolar crest height in the periodontitis model, inhibited the expression of the ligand of the receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB (RANKL), and promoted the expression of its inhibitor, osteoprotegerin. The study demonstrated that MINO-PLGA electrospun membranes may be applied to stimulate bone regeneration in periodontitis.

Abstract
The present in vitro study was conducted to investigate the effect of low-level laser (LLL) radiation and doxycycline on the levels of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) derived from MG-63 osteosarcoma cell line. MG-63 cells were divided into four groups. In the first group, 2 mg/mL of doxycycline was injected into the cell culture medium. Diode laser (810 nm, 100 mw, 75 s) was radiated to the culture medium of the second group. The third group received both doxycycline and laser radiation. In the fourth group (control), the culture medium was replaced daily, similar to the above three groups. Mentioned interventions were performed once a day for 4 consecutive days. Then, on the sixth day, the levels of OPG and RANKL mediators were measured using real-time polymerase chain reaction by isolating the cells from the samples. OPG expression had the highest to lowest levels in the laser + doxycycline, doxycycline, laser, and control groups, respectively. The level of OPG was significantly different between all the study groups (p < 0.05) except in the doxycycline + laser and doxycycline groups (p = 0.061). The highest to lowest levels of RANKL was observed in the doxycycline, laser + doxycycline, control, and laser groups, respectively. The RANKL expression was not significantly different between all the study groups (p > 0.05). The results of this study revealed that LLL and doxycycline reduced the RANKL/OPG ratio derived from the MG-63 osteosarcoma cell line, which may result in the diminished activity of osteoclasts and osteoclastogenesis.

Doxycycline containing hydroxyapatite ceramic microspheres as a bone-targeting drug delivery system. J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2019; 108:1351-1362. [PMID: 31496111 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.34484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2019] [Revised: 07/26/2019] [Accepted: 08/17/2019] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
Drug delivery technology is a promising way to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of drugs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the physical and chemical properties of hydroxyapatite ceramic microspheres loaded with doxycycline (HADOX), their effects on in vitro osteoblast viability, and their antimicrobial activity, and to determine the effects of DOX on the healing of rat sockets after tooth extraction. The internal microsphere porosity was sensitive to the treatment used to adsorb DOX onto microsphere surface; HA microspheres without DOX presented 26% of pores, whereas HADOX0.15 microspheres presented 52.0%. An initial drug release of 49.15 μg/ml was observed in the first 24 hr. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) tested against Enterococcus faecalis demonstrated that bacterial growth was inhibited for up to 7 days. Results of cell viability and cell proliferation did not indicate statistical differences in the metabolic activity of HADOX samples relative to HA without DOX microspheres (p > .05). After 1 week, a discreet inflammation reaction was observed in the control group, and after 6 weeks, newly-formed bone was observed in the HADOX0.15 (p < .05). The HADOX did not interfere in the bone repair and controlled the early inflammatory response. HADOX could be a promising biomaterial to promote bone repair in infected sites.

Abstract
Bio-Oss (BO), one of the bone substitutes, is extensively used for augmentation in dental field because it is highly biocompatible and osteoconductive, which however does not stimulate bone formation. Doxycycline (DOX), a widely-used antibiotic, shows inhibitory effects on inflammation and osteoclastogenesis, and it has been reported to stimulate bone formation. The objective of this study is to investigate the vertical bone formation with DOX doped BO in guided bone regeneration on rat calvaria. Forty rats underwent calvarial vertical augmentation surgeries. Twenty rats received BO whereas the others received DOX doped BO. The calvarias were harvested and analyzed radiologically, histologically and with RT-PCR at 4 and 8 weeks postoperatively. At 4 weeks, the area of mineralized new bone statistically increased in BO+DOX compared to BO, upregulations of TGFβ1, BMP2 and β-catenin were evident in BO+DOX. The present study demonstrates that BO+DOX improve vertical bone augmentation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral rehabilitation with dental implants has become increasingly common; however, the increase of peri-implantitis is a great concern. Doxycycline (DOX) is a widely used antibiotic that inhibits bacteria growth, inflammation, and bone resorption. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the progression of peri-implantitis of hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implants with (5 mg/mL, DOX group) or without (HA group) DOX treatment on the surface. MATERIALS AND METHODS The maxillary first molars of 20 male mice were extracted. Eight weeks later, small titanium screw implants coated with thin HA and treated with or without DOX were placed at the extracted sites. Four weeks after implant placement, half of the animals in both groups were sacrificed, and ligatures were placed around the implant necks in the other half. These mice were sacrificed 4 weeks later. The bone around the implants was examined radiologically and histologically. RESULTS Four weeks after the ligature placement, the radiographic measurements revealed that peri-implant bone levels of palatal and mesial sites, and histological measurements showed that bone levels of mesial and distal sites in the DOX group were significantly higher than those in the HA group. CONCLUSIONS The present results indicating that the DOX-treated HA implant surface attenuates the progression of peri-implantitis.

Abstract
Doxycycline (DOX) exhibits anti-inflammatory and MMP inhibitory properties. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of DOX on alveolar bone repair. Controls (CTL) and DOX-treated (10 and 25 mg·kg-1) molars were extracted, and rats were killed 7 or 14 days later. The maxillae were processed and subjected to histological and immunohistochemical assays. Hematoxylin-eosin staining (7th day) revealed inflammation in the CTL group that was partly reversed after DOX treatment. On the 14th day, the CTL group exhibited bone neoformation, conjunctive tissue, re-epithelization and the absence of inflammatory infiltrate. DOX-treated groups exhibited complete re-epithelization, tissue remodelling and almost no inflammation. Picrosirius red staining in the DOX10 group (7th and 14th days) revealed an increased percentage of type I and III collagen fibres compared with the CTL and DOX25 groups. The DOX10 and DOX25 groups exhibited increases in osteoblasts on the 7th and 14th days. However, there were fewer osteoclasts in the DOX10 and DOX25 groups on the 7th and 14th days. Wnt-10b-immunopositive cells increased by 130% and 150% on the 7th and 14th days, respectively, in DOX-treated groups compared with the CTL group. On the 7th day, Dickkopf (Dkk)-1 immunostaining was decreased by 63% and 46% in the DOX10 and DOX25 groups, respectively. On the 14th day, 69% and 42% decreases in immunopositive cells were observed in the DOX10 and DOX25 groups, respectively, compared with the CTL group. By increasing osteoblasts, decreasing osteoclasts, activating Wnt 10b and neutralising Dkk, DOX is a potential candidate for bone repair in periodontal diseases.

Abstract
Improved osseointegration of dental implants is imperative in clinic. Effect of doxycycline on promoting bone formation after implant placement was expected due to its inhibitory properties on inflammation and osteoclastogenesis. To evaluate new bone formation on the hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implant surface, which was treated with doxycycline, in comparison with the untreated HA surface, half of the HA-coated implants were soaked in doxycycline solution (DOX group) whereas the other HA-coated implants were untreated (HA group). Eight weeks after extracting the maxillary first molars of 4-week-old male mice, the implants of both groups were placed at the extracted site. 4 and 8 weeks after surgery, the samples were evaluated radiologically and histomorphometrically. Bone-implant contact of DOX group was statistically higher than the one of HA group at 4 and 8 weeks. New bone area between the threads of the implants also statistically increased at 8 weeks in DOX group compared to HA group.

Abstract
Bone formation is coupled to bone resorption throughout life. However, the coupling mechanisms are not fully elucidated. Using Tnfrsf11b-deficient (OPG-/- ) mice, in which bone formation is clearly coupled to bone resorption, we found here that osteoclasts suppress the expression of sclerostin, a Wnt antagonist, thereby promoting bone formation. Wnt/β-catenin signals were higher in OPG-/- and RANKL-transgenic mice with a low level of sclerostin. Conditioned medium from osteoclast cultures (Ocl-CM) suppressed sclerostin expression in UMR106 cells and osteocyte cultures. In vitro experiments revealed that osteoclasts secreted leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and inhibited sclerostin expression. Anti-RANKL antibodies, antiresorptive agents, suppressed LIF expression and increased sclerostin expression, thereby reducing bone formation in OPG-/- mice. Taken together, osteoclast-derived LIF regulates bone turnover through sclerostin expression. Thus, LIF represents a target for improving the prolonged suppression of bone turnover by antiresorptive agents. © 2017 The Authors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preclinical studies support the assumption that connective tissue grafts preserve the alveolar bone from resorption; the underlying cellular mechanisms, however, remain unknown. The cellular mechanisms may be attributed to the paracrine activity of the palatal fibroblasts. It was thus reasonable to suggest that palatal connective tissue grafts reduce the formation of osteoclasts. METHODS To test this hypothesis, human palatal fibroblasts were examined for their capacity to modulate the formation of osteoclasts in murine bone marrow cultures exposed to RANKL, M-CSF and TGF-β1. Osteoclastogenesis was determined by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining and gene expression analysis. The formation of antigen presenting cells was based on the expression of CD14 and costimmulatory molecules of antigen presenting cells. The paracrine interaction of fibroblasts and the bone marrow was modeled in vitro with inserts of cell-occlusive membranes. RESULTS In cocultures without cell-to-cell contact, palatal fibroblasts caused a decrease in the expression of the osteoclast marker genes in bone marrow cells; calcitonin receptors, cathepsin K, TRAP, and osteoclast-associated receptor. Also the number of TRAP positive multinucleated cells was decreased in the presence of fibroblasts. Notably, palatal fibroblasts increased the expression of CD14 and the co-stimulatory proteins CD40, CD80, and CD86 in bone marrow cells. Bone marrow cells had no considerable impact on fibroblast viability and proliferation marker genes. With regard to cell distribution, osteoclasts were most prominent in the center of the membranes, while fibroblasts accumulated immediately adjacent to the border of the insert forming a ring-like structure on the surface of the culture plate. CONCLUSION The data suggest that palatal fibroblasts provide a paracrine environment that reduces osteoclastogenesis and increases markers of antigen presenting cells. Morover, the paracrine model revealed a joint activity between palatal fibroblasts and bone marrow cells visualized by the characteristic cell distribution in the two separated compartments.

Abstract
Continuous parathyroid hormone (PTH) blocks its own osteogenic actions in marrow stromal cell cultures by inducing Cox2 and receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) in the osteoblastic lineage cells, which then cause the hematopoietic lineage cells to secrete an inhibitor of PTH-stimulated osteoblast differentiation. To identify this inhibitor, we used bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) and primary osteoblasts (POBs) from WT and Cox2 knock-out (KO) mice. Conditioned medium (CM) from RANKL-treated WT, but not KO, BMMs blocked PTH-stimulated cAMP production in POBs. Inhibition was reversed by pertussis toxin (PTX), which blocks Gαi/o activation. Saa3 was the most highly differentially expressed gene in a microarray comparison of RANKL-treated WT versus Cox2 KO BMMs, and RANKL induced Saa3 protein secretion only from WT BMMs. CM from RANKL-stimulated BMMs with Saa3 knockdown did not inhibit PTH-stimulated responses in POBs. SAA added to POBs inhibited PTH-stimulated cAMP responses, which was reversed by PTX. Selective agonists and antagonists of formyl peptide receptor 2 (Fpr2) suggested that Fpr2 mediated the inhibitory actions of Saa3 on osteoblasts. In BMMs committed to become osteoclasts by RANKL treatment, Saa3 expression peaked prior to appearance of multinucleated cells. Flow sorting of WT marrow revealed that Saa3 was secreted only from the RANKL-stimulated B220(-) CD3(-)CD11b(-/low) CD115(+) preosteoclast population. We conclude that Saa3 secretion from preosteoclasts, induced by RANKL in a Cox2-dependent manner, inhibits PTH-stimulated cAMP signaling and osteoblast differentiation via Gαi/o signaling. The induction of Saa3 by PTH may explain the suppression of bone formation when PTH is applied continuously and may be a new therapeutic target for osteoporosis.

Abstract
The interactions of stromal cells with hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow have long been a subject of research, but only recently have technologies allowed us to dissect them at the stem cell level. On the other hand, limitations of these technical tools might explain numerous discrepancies in this field. It is becoming increasingly clear that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent an important component of the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niche in the bone marrow. However, there is heterogeneity among HSCs, and many putatively different mesenchymal progenitors identified in the bone marrow using Cre recombinase-driven mouse lines seem to exhibit HSC niche properties. Development of better reporter lines has demonstrated that some of these Cre lines do not always specifically mark the expected cells. Also, characterization of different cell populations has often been partial, and issues of redundancy and compensation might explain apparently contradictory results. Recognizing and overcoming these limitations, while also clearly defining the distinctions between subgroups of mesenchymal cells, will be essential to advance the field.

Abstract
Saliva can reach mineralized surfaces in the oral cavity; however, the relationship between saliva and bone resorption is unclear. Herein, we examined whether saliva affects the process of osteoclastogenesis in vitro. We used murine bone marrow cultures to study osteoclast formation. The addition of fresh sterile saliva eliminated the formation of multinucleated cells that stained positive for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP). In line with the histochemical staining, saliva substantially reduced gene expression of cathepsin K, calcitonin receptor, and TRAP. Addition of saliva led to considerably decreased gene expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B (RANK) and, to a lesser extent, that of c-fms. The respective master regulators of osteoclastogenesis (c-fos and NFATc1) and the downstream cell fusion genes (DC-STAMP and Atp6v0d2) showed decreased expression after the addition of saliva. Among the costimulatory molecules for osteoclastogenesis, only OSCAR showed decreased expression. In contrast, CD40, CD80, and CD86—all costimulatory molecules of phagocytic cells—were increasingly expressed with saliva. The phagocytic capacity of the cells was confirmed by latex bead ingestion. Based on these in vitro results, it can be concluded that saliva suppresses osteoclastogenesis and leads to the development of a phagocytic cell phenotype.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study analyzed the detailed biological events underlying pulpal dynamics evoked by 3Mix (the mixture of ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, and minocycline) solution after intentionally delayed tooth replantation because 3Mix improves pulpal healing after tooth injuries. METHODS The maxillary first molars of 3-week-old mice were extracted and immersed in 3Mix solution for 30 minutes in comparison with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) alone. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation were assessed in extracted/replanted teeth during days 0-14 using immunohistochemistry, apoptosis assay, and reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS 3Mix solution accelerated odontoblast differentiation in the coronal pulp on day 7 and tertiary dentin formation on day 14, whereas the regenerative process was delayed in the PBS group. Cell proliferation and apoptosis occurred in the pulp of the 3Mix group during days 5-7 and subsequently decreased from days 7-14. On day 5, dentin sialophosphoprotein and nestin were first recovered in the 3Mix group, whereas expression levels for alkaline phosphatase, osteopontin, and osteocalcin increased in the PBS group. The expression levels for octamer-binding factor 3/4A and 3/4B reached the maximum level on day 1 and were sharply decreased on day 3 in both groups. High expression levels of Cd11c were first observed in the 3Mix group on day 1 and later at days 5 and 7. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that the application of 3Mix may suppress osteoblast differentiation by the migration of dendritic cells to the injury site and via the activation of stem/progenitor cells, resulting in the acceleration of odontoblastlike cell differentiation.

Abstract
The non-antimicrobial properties of tetracyclines such as anti-inflammatory, proanabolic and anti-catabolic actions make them effective pharmaceuticals for the adjunctive management of chronic inflammatory diseases. An over-exuberant inflammatory response to an antigenic trigger in periodontitis and other chronic inflammatory diseases could contribute to an autoimmune element in disease progression. Their adjunctive use in managing periodontitis could have beneficial effects in curbing excessive inflammatory loading from commonly associated comorbidities such as CHD, DM and arthritis. Actions of tetracyclines and their derivatives include interactions with MMPs, tissue inhibitors of MMPs, growth factors and cytokines. They affect the sequence of inflammation with implications on immunomodulation, cell proliferation and angiogenesis; these actions enhance their scope, in treating a range of disease entities. Non-antimicrobial chemically modified tetracyclines (CMTs) sustain their diverse actions in organ systems which include anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, anti-proteolytic actions, inhibition of angiogenesis and tumor metastasis. A spectrum of biological actions in dermatitis, periodontitis, atherosclerosis, diabetes, arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, malignancy and prevention of bone resorption is particularly relevant to minocycline. Experimental models of ischemia indicate their specific beneficial effects. Parallel molecules with similar functions, improved Zn binding and solubility have been developed for reducing excessive MMP activity. Curbing excessive MMP activity is particularly relevant to periodontitis, and comorbidities addressed here, where specificity is paramount. Unique actions of tetracyclines in a milieu of excessive inflammatory stimuli make them effective therapeutic adjuncts in the management of chronic inflammatory disorders. These beneficial actions of tetracyclines are relevant to the adjunctive management of periodontitis subjects presenting with commonly prevalent comorbidities addressed here.

Abstract
Cancer patients treated with anti-EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) drugs often develop a dose-limiting pruritic rash of unknown etiology. The aims of our study were to define causal associations from a clinical study of cutaneous and systemic changes in patients treated with gefitinib and use these to develop and characterize a mouse model that recapitulates the human skin rash syndrome caused by anti-EGFR therapy. We examined the patients' plasma before and after treatment with gefitinib and documented changes in chemokines and leukocyte counts associated with the extent of rash or the presence of pruritus. We established a parallel mouse model by ablating EGFR in the epidermis. These mice developed skin lesions similar to the human rash. Before lesion development, we detected increased mRNA expression of chemokines in the skin associated with early infiltration of macrophages and mast cells and later infiltration of eosinophils, T cells, and neutrophils. As the skin phenotype evolved, changes in blood counts and circulating chemokines reproduced those seen in the gefitinib-treated patients. Crossing the mutant mice with mice deficient for tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) receptors, MyD88, NOS2, CCR2, T cells, or B cells failed to reverse the skin phenotype. However, local depletion of macrophages provided partial resolution, suggesting that this model can identify targets that may be effective in preventing the troublesome and dose-limiting skin response to anti-EGFR drugs. These results highlight the importance of EGFR signaling in maintaining skin immune homeostasis and identify a macrophage contribution to a serious adverse consequence of cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common bone disease characterized by reduced bone and increased risk of fracture. In postmenopausal women, osteoporosis results from bone loss attributable to estrogen deficiency. Osteoclast differentiation and activation is mediated by receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), its receptor receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (RANK), and a decoy receptor for RANKL, osteoprotegerin (OPG). The OPG/RANKL/RANK system plays a pivotal role in osteoclast biology. Currently, a fully human anti-RANKL monoclonal antibody named denosumab is being clinically used for the treatment of osteoporosis and cancer-related bone disorders. This review describes recent advances in RANKL-related research, a story from bench to bedside. First, the discovery of the key factors, OPG/RANKL/RANK, revealed the molecular mechanism of osteoclastogenesis. Second, we established three animal models: (1) a novel and rapid bone loss model by administration of glutathione-S transferase-RANKL fusion protein to mice; (2) a novel mouse model of hypercalcemia with anorexia by overexpression of soluble RANKL using an adenovirus vector; and (3) a novel mouse model of osteopetrosis by administration of a denosumab-like anti-mouse RANKL neutralizing monoclonal antibody. Lastly, anti-human RANKL monoclonal antibody has been successfully applied to the treatment of osteoporosis and cancer-related bone disorders in many countries. This is a real example of applying basic science to clinical practice.

Abstract
Osteoclast differentiation is regulated by transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and post-translational mechanisms. MicroRNAs are fundamental post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. The function of the miR-29 (a/b/c) family in cells of the osteoclast lineage is not well understood. In primary cultures of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages, inhibition of miR-29a, -29b, or -29c diminished formation of TRAP (tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive) multinucleated osteoclasts, and the osteoclasts were smaller. Quantitative RT-PCR showed that all miR-29 family members increased during osteoclast differentiation, in concert with mRNAs for the osteoclast markers Trap (Acp5) and cathepsin K. Similar regulation was observed in the monocytic cell line RAW264.7. In stably transduced RAW264.7 cell lines expressing an inducible miR-29 competitive inhibitor (sponge construct), miR-29 knockdown impaired osteoclastic commitment and migration of pre-osteoclasts. However, miR-29 knockdown did not affect cell viability, actin ring formation, or apoptosis in mature osteoclasts. To better understand how miR-29 regulates osteoclast function, we validated miR-29 target genes using Luciferase 3'-UTR reporter assays and specific miR-29 inhibitors. We demonstrated that miR-29 negatively regulates RNAs critical for cytoskeletal organization, including Cdc42 (cell division control protein 42) and Srgap2 (SLIT-ROBO Rho GTPase-activating protein 2). Moreover, miR-29 targets RNAs associated with the macrophage lineage: Gpr85 (G protein-coupled receptor 85), Nfia (nuclear factor I/A), and Cd93. In addition, Calcr (calcitonin receptor), which regulates osteoclast survival and resorption, is a novel miR-29 target. Thus, miR-29 is a positive regulator of osteoclast formation and targets RNAs important for cytoskeletal organization, commitment, and osteoclast function. We hypothesize that miR-29 controls the tempo and amplitude of osteoclast differentiation.

Abstract
Periodontitis, an inflammatory disease of periodontal tissues, is characterized by excessive alveolar bone resorption. An increase in the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) to osteoprotegerin (OPG) ratio is thought to reflect the severity of periodontitis. Here, we examined alveolar bone loss in OPG-deficient (OPG(-/-)) mice and RANKL-overexpressing transgenic (RANKL-Tg) mice. Alveolar bone loss in OPG(-/-) mice at 12 weeks was significantly higher than that in RANKL-Tg mice. OPG(-/-) but not RANKL-Tg mice exhibited severe bone resorption especially in cortical areas of the alveolar bone. An increased number of osteoclasts was observed in the cortical areas in OPG(-/-) but not in RANKL-Tg mice. Immunohistochemical analyses showed many OPG-positive signals in osteocytes but not osteoblasts. OPG-positive osteocytes in the cortical area of alveolar bones and long bones were abundant in both wild-type and RANKL-Tg mice. This suggests the resorption in cortical bone areas to be prevented by OPG produced locally. To test the usefulness of OPG(-/-) mice as an animal model for screening drugs to prevent alveolar bone loss, we administered an antimouse RANKL antibody or risedronate, a bisphosphonate, to OPG(-/-) mice. They suppressed alveolar bone resorption effectively. OPG(-/-) mice are useful for screening therapeutic agents against alveolar bone loss.
