Abstract
It has previously been demonstrated that the polybisphosphonate osteodex (ODX) inhibits bone resorption in organ-cultured mouse calvarial bone. In this study, we further investigate the effects by ODX on osteoclast differentiation, formation, and function in several different bone organ and cell cultures. Zoledronic acid (ZOL) was used for comparison. In retinoid-stimulated mouse calvarial organ cultures, ODX and ZOL significantly reduced the numbers of periosteal osteoclasts without affecting Tnfsf11 or Tnfrsf11b mRNA expression. ODX and ZOL also drastically reduced the numbers of osteoclasts in cell cultures isolated from the calvarial bone and in vitamin D3-stimulated mouse crude bone marrow cell cultures. These data suggest that ODX can inhibit osteoclast formation by inhibiting the differentiation of osteoclast progenitor cells or by directly targeting mature osteoclasts. We therefore assessed if osteoclast formation in purified bone marrow macrophage cultures stimulated by RANKL was inhibited by ODX and ZOL and found that the initial formation of mature osteoclasts was not affected, but that the bisphosphonates enhanced cell death of mature osteoclasts. In agreement with these findings, ODX and ZOL did not affect the mRNA expression of the osteoclastic genes Acp5 and Ctsk and the osteoclastogenic transcription factor Nfatc1. When bone marrow macrophages were incubated on bone slices, ODX and ZOL inhibited RANKL-stimulated bone resorption. In conclusion, ODX does not inhibit osteoclast formation but inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption by decreasing osteoclast numbers through enhanced cell death of mature osteoclasts.

Abstract
In China, traditional medications for osteoporosis have significant side effects, low compliance, and high costs, making it urgent to explore new treatment options. Probiotics have demonstrated superiority in the treatment of various chronic diseases, and the reduction of bone mass in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is closely related to the degradation and metabolism of intestinal probiotics. It is crucial to explore the role and molecular mechanisms of probiotics in alleviating PMOP through their metabolites, as well as their therapeutic effects. We aim to identify key probiotics and their metabolites that affect bone loss in PMOP through 16srDNA sequencing combined with non-targeted metabolomics sequencing, and explore the impact and possible mechanisms of key probiotics and their metabolites on the progression of PMOP in the context of osteoporosis caused by estrogen deficiency. The sequencing results showed a significant decrease in Lactobacillus acidophilus and butyrate in PMOP patients. In vivo experiments confirmed that the intervention of L. acidophilus and butyrate significantly inhibited osteoclast formation and bone resorption activity, improved intestinal barrier permeability, suppressed B cells, and the production of RANKL on B cells, effectively reduced systemic bone loss induced by oophorectomy, with butyric acid levels regulated by L. acidophilus. Consistently, in vitro experiments have confirmed that butyrate can directly inhibit the formation of osteoclasts and bone resorption activity. The above research results indicate that there are various pathways through which L. acidophilus inhibits osteoclast formation and bone resorption activity through butyrate. Intervention with L. acidophilus may be a safe and promising treatment strategy for osteoclast related bone diseases, such as PMOP.

Abstract
We recently reported the potential of a new gallium compound, gallium acetylacetonate (GaAcAc) in combating osteoclastic bone resorption through inhibition of osteoclast differentiation and function. Herein, we focused on 3D-printed polylactic acid scaffolds that were loaded with GaAcAc and investigated the impact of scaffold pretreatment with polydopamine (PDA) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH). We observed a remarkable increase in scaffold hydrophilicity with PDA or NaOH pretreatment while biocompatibility and in vitro degradation were not affected. NaOH-pretreated scaffolds showed the highest amount of GaAcAc loading when compared to other scaffolds (p < 0.05). NaOH-pretreated scaffolds with GaAcAc loading showed effective reduction of osteoclast counts and size. The trend was supported by suppression of key osteoclast differentiation markers such as NFAT2, c-Fos, TRAF6, & TRAP. All GaAcAc-loaded scaffolds, regardless of surface pretreatment, were effective in inhibiting osteoclast function as evidenced by reduction in the number of resorptive pits in bovine cortical bone slices (p < 0.01). The suppression of osteoclast function according to the type of scaffold followed the ranking: GaAcAc loading without surface pretreatment > GaAcAc loading with NaOH pretreatment > GaAcAc loading with PDA pretreatment. Additional studies will be needed to fully elucidate the impact of surface pretreatment on the efficacy and safety of GaAcAc-loaded 3D-printed scaffolds.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoclasts are the tissue-specific macrophage population of the bone and unique in their bone-resorbing activity. Hence, they are fundamental for bone physiology in health and disease. However, efficient protocols for the isolation and study of primary human osteoclasts are scarce. In this study, we aimed to establish a protocol, which enables the efficient differentiation of functional human osteoclasts from monocytes. RESULTS Human monocytes were isolated through a double-density gradient from donor blood. Compared to standard differentiation schemes in polystyrene cell culture dishes, the yield of multinuclear osteoclasts was significantly increased upon initial differentiation of monocytes to macrophages in fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) Teflon bags. This initial differentiation phase was then followed by the development of terminal osteoclasts by addition of Receptor Activator of NF-κB Ligand (RANKL). High concentrations of RANKL and Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) as well as an intermediate cell density further supported efficient cell differentiation. The generated cells were highly positive for CD45, CD14 as well as the osteoclast markers CD51/ITGAV and Cathepsin K/CTSK, thus identifying them as osteoclasts. The bone resorption of the osteoclasts was significantly increased when the cells were differentiated from macrophages derived from Teflon bags compared to macrophages derived from conventional cell culture plates. CONCLUSION Our study has established a novel protocol for the isolation of primary human osteoclasts that improves osteoclastogenesis in comparison to the conventionally used cultivation approach.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic periodontitis triggers an increase in osteoclastogenesis, with glycolysis playing a crucial role in this process. Pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) is a critical enzyme involved in glycolysis and pyruvate metabolism. Yet, the precise function of PKM2 in osteoclasts and their formation remains unclear and requires further investigation. METHODS Bioinformatics was used to investigate critical biological processes in osteoclastogenesis. In vitro, osteoclastogenesis was analyzed using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, phalloidin staining, quantitative real‑time PCR (RT-qPCR), and Western blotting. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) of PKM2 and Shikonin, a specific inhibitor of PKM2, were used to verify the role of PKM2 in osteoclastogenesis. The mouse model of periodontitis was used to assess the effect of shikonin on bone loss. Analyses included micro computed tomography, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, TRAP staining and HE staining. RESULTS Bioinformatic analysis revealed a significant impact of glycolysis and pyruvate metabolism on osteoclastogenesis. Inhibition of PKM2 leads to a significant reduction in osteoclastogenesis. In vitro, co-culture of the heat-killed Porphyromonas gingivalis significantly promoted osteoclastogenesis, concomitant with an increased PKM2 expression in osteoclasts. Shikonin weakened the promoting effect of porphyromonas gingivalis on osteoclastogenesis. In vivo experiments demonstrated that inhibition of PKM2 by shikonin alleviated bone loss induced by periodontitis, suppressed excessive osteoclastogenesis in alveolar bone, and reduced tissue inflammation to some extent. CONCLUSION PKM2 inhibition by shikonin, a specific inhibitor of this enzyme, attenuated osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption in periodontitis. Shikonin appears to be a promising therapeutic agent for treating periodontitis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Vertebral endplate lesions (EPLs) caused by severe disk degeneration are associated with low back pain. However, its pathophysiology remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to develop a vertebral EPL rat model mimicking severe intervertebral disk (IVD) degeneration by injecting monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) into the IVDs and evaluating it by assessing pain-related behavior, micro-computed tomography (CT) findings, and histological changes. METHODS MIA was injected into the L4-5 and L5-6 IVDs of Sprague-Dawley rats. Their behavior was examined by measuring the total distance traveled and the total number of rearing in an open square arena. Bone alterations and volume around the vertebral endplate were assessed using micro-CT. Safranin-O staining, immunohistochemistry, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining were performed for histological assessment. RESULTS The total distance and number of rearing times in the open field were significantly reduced in a time-dependent manner. Micro-CT revealed intervertebral osteophytes and irregularities in the endplates at 12 weeks. The bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV) around the endplates significantly increased from 6 weeks onward. Safranin-O staining revealed severe degeneration of IVDs and endplate disorders in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Calcitonin gene-related peptide-positive nerve fibers significantly increased from 6 weeks onward. However, the number of osteoclasts decreased over time. CONCLUSION Our rat EPL model showed progressive morphological vertebral endplate changes in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, similar to the degenerative changes in human IVDs. This model can be used as an animal model of severe IVD degeneration to better understand the pathophysiology of EPL.

Abstract
This paper aims to present a comprehensive framework for coupling tumor-bone remodeling processes in a 2-dimensional geometry. This is achieved by introducing a bio-inspired damage that represents the growing tumor, which subsequently affects the main populations involved in the remodeling process, namely, osteoclasts, osteoblasts, and bone tissue. The model is constructed using a set of differential equations based on the Komarova's and Ayati's models, modified to incorporate the bio-inspired damage that may result in tumor mass formation. Three distinct models were developed. The first two models are based on the Komarova's governing equations, with one demonstrating an osteolytic behavior and the second one an osteoblastic model. The third model is a variation of Ayati's model, where the bio-inspired damage is induced through the paracrine and autocrine parameters, exhibiting an osteolytic behavior. The obtained results are consistent with existing literature, leading us to believe that our in-silico experiments will serve as a cornerstone for paving the way towards targeted interventions and personalized treatment strategies, ultimately improving the quality of life for those affected by these conditions.

Abstract
Human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) seeded on calcium phosphate (CaP) bioceramics are extensively explored in bone tissue engineering and have recently shown effective clinical outcomes. In previous pre-clinical studies, hMSCs-CaP-mediated bone formation was preceded by osteoclastogenesis at the implantation site. The current study evaluates to what extent phase composition of CaPs affects the osteoclast response and ultimately influence bone formation. To this end, four different CaP bioceramics were used, hydroxyapatite (HA), β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and two biphasic composites of HA/β-TCP ratios of 60/40 and 20/80 respectively, for in vitro osteoclast differentiation and correlation with in vivo osteoclastogenesis and bone formation. All ceramics allowed osteoclast formation in vitro from mouse and human precursors, except for pure HA, which significantly impaired their maturation. Ectopic implantation alongside hMSCs in subcutis sites of nude mice revealed new bone formation at 8 weeks in all conditions with relative amounts for β-TCP > biphasic CaPs > HA. Surprisingly, while hMSCs were essential for osteoinduction, their survival did not correlate with bone formation. By contrast, the degree of early osteoclastogenesis (2 weeks) seemed to define the extent of subsequent bone formation. Together, our findings suggest that the osteoclastic response could be used as a predictive marker in hMSC-CaP-based bone regeneration and strengthens the need to understand the underlying mechanisms for future biomaterial development. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The combination of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and calcium phosphate (CaP) materials has demonstrated its safety and efficacy for bone regeneration in clinical trials, despite our insufficient understanding of the underlying biological mechanisms. Osteoclasts were previously suggested as key mediators between the early inflammatory phase following biomaterial implantation and the subsequent bone formation. Here we compared the affinity of osteoclasts for various CaP materials with different ratios of hydroxyapatite to β-tricalcium phosphate. We found that osteoclast formation, both in vitro and at early stages in vivo, correlates with bone formation when the materials were implanted alongside MSCs in mice. Surprisingly, MSC survival did not correlate with bone formation, suggesting that the number or phenotype of osteoclasts formed was more important.

Abstract
Objective Compressive force has been found to be catabolic to alveolar bone during orthodontic tooth movement. This study quantified the fusion of mononuclear RAW 264.7 cells (a murine osteoclastic-like cell line) into multinucleated osteoclasts under a hydrostatic pressure-generated mechanical compression-the new model of various magnitudes and durations. Methods RAW 264.7 cells were subjected to 0.3, 0.6 or 0.9 g/cm2 of compressive force by an acrylic cylinder custom-made by laser cutting or no compressive force for 4 days during osteoclastogenic induction. TRAP-positive multinucleated cells were quantified. For the release from force experiment, osteoclastogenesis was induced by 0.6 g/cm2 mechanical stimuli for 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 days. Cell viability, TRAP-positive multinucleated cells, DCSTAMP and Cathepsin K (CTSK) gene expression were evaluated 4 days after release from force. Results Compressive force at 0.6 and 0.9 g/cm2 significantly increase the number of TRAP-positive multinucleated cells (P < 0.05). Release from continuous mechanical compression after 4 days significantly elevated the number of TRAP-positive multinucleated cells and DCSTAMP and CTSK mRNA expression, with no adverse effects on cell viability (P < 0.05). Conclusions Continuous stimulation with compressive force induced osteoclastogenesis in RAW 264.7 cells by enhancing DCSTAMP and CTSK expression, which provides new understanding of bone remodeling during orthodontic treatment.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) progression leads to bone modulation in approximately 70% of affected men. A nutraceutical, namely, α-lipoic acid (α-LA), is known for its potent anti-cancer properties towards various cancers and has been implicated in treating and promoting bone health. Our study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism behind the role of α-LA as therapeutics in preventing PCa and its associated bone modulation. Notably, α-LA treatment significantly reduced the cell viability, migration, and invasion of PCa cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, α-LA supplementation dramatically increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and HIF-1α expression, which started the downstream molecular cascade and activated JNK/caspase-3 signaling pathway. Flow cytometry data revealed the arrest of the cell cycle in the S-phase, which has led to apoptosis of PCa cells. Furthermore, the results of ALP (Alkaline phosphatase) and TRAP (tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase) staining signifies that α-LA supplementation diminished the PCa-mediated differentiation of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, respectively, in the MC3T3-E1 and bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) cells. In summary, α-LA supplementation enhanced cellular apoptosis via increased ROS levels, HIF-1α expression, and JNK/caspase-3 signaling pathway in advanced human PCa cell lines. Also, the treatment of α-LA improved bone health by reducing PCa-mediated bone cell modulation.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is essential for the repair and replacement of damaged or aging bones. Continuous remodeling is necessary to prevent the accumulation of bone damage and to maintain bone strength and calcium balance. As bones age, the coupling mechanism between bone formation and absorption becomes dysregulated, and bone loss becomes dominant. Bone development and repair rely on interaction and communication between osteoclasts and surrounding cells. Osteoclasts are specialized cells that are accountable for bone resorption and degradation, and any abnormalities in their activity can result in notable alterations in bone structure and worsen disease symptoms. Recent findings from transgenic mouse models and bone analysis have greatly enhanced our understanding of the origin, differentiation pathway, and activation stages of osteoclasts. In this review, we explore osteoclasts and discuss the cellular and molecular events that drive their generation, focusing on intracellular oxidative and antioxidant signaling. This knowledge can help develop targeted therapies for diseases associated with osteoclast activation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) poses a significant health burden in specific regions of Asia, and some of NPC patients have bone metastases at the time of initial diagnosis. Bone metastasis can cause pathologic fractures and pain, reducing patients' quality of life, and is associated with worse survival. This study aims to unravel the complex role of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) in NPC bone metastasis, offering insights into potential therapeutic targets. METHODS We assessed IGF-1R expression in NPC cells and explored its correlation with bone metastasis. Experiments investigated the impact of osteoclast-secreted IGF-1 on the IGF-1R/AKT/S6 pathway in promoting NPC cell proliferation within the bone marrow. Additionally, the reciprocal influence of tumor-secreted Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) on osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption was examined. The effects of IGF-1 neutralizing antibody, IGF-1R specific inhibitor (NVP-AEW541) and mTORC inhibitor (rapamycin) on nasopharyngeal carcinoma bone metastasis were also explored in animal experiments. RESULTS Elevated IGF-1R expression in NPC cells correlated with an increased tendency for bone metastasis. IGF-1, secreted by osteoclasts, activated the IGF-1R/AKT/S6 pathway, promoting NPC cell proliferation in the bone marrow. Tumor-secreted GM-CSF further stimulated osteoclast differentiation, exacerbating bone resorption. The IGF-1 neutralizing antibody, NVP-AEW541 and rapamycin were respectively effective in slowing down the rate of bone metastasis and reducing bone destruction. CONCLUSION The intricate interplay among IGF-1R, IGF-1, and GM-CSF highlights potential therapeutic targets for precise control of NPC bone metastasis, providing valuable insights for developing targeted interventions.

Abstract
Craniometaphyseal dysplasia (CMD), a rare craniotubular disorder, occurs in an autosomal dominant (AD) or autosomal recessive (AR) form. CMD is characterized by hyperostosis of craniofacial bones and flaring metaphyses of long bones. Many patients with CMD suffer from neurological symptoms. To date, the pathogenesis of CMD is not fully understood. Treatment is limited to decompression surgery. Here, we report a knock in (KI) mouse model for AR CMD carrying a R239Q mutation in CX43. Cx43KI/KI mice replicate many features of AR CMD in craniofacial and long bones. In contrast to Cx43+/+ littermates, Cx43KI/KI mice exhibit periosteal bone deposition and increased osteoclast (OC) numbers in the endosteum of long bones, leading to an expanded bone marrow cavity and increased cortical bone thickness. Although formation of Cx43+/+ and Cx43KI/KI resting OCs are comparable, on bone chips the actively resorbing Cx43KI/KI OCs resorb less bone. Cortical bones of Cx43KI/KI mice have an increase in degenerating osteocytes and empty lacunae. Osteocyte dendrite formation is decreased with reduced expression levels of Fgf23, Sost, Tnf-α, IL-1β, Esr1, Esr2, and a lower Rankl/Opg ratio. Female Cx43KI/KI mice display a more severe phenotype. Sexual dimorphism in bone becomes more evident as mice age. Our data show that the CX43R239Q mutation results in mislocalization of CX43 protein and impairment of gap junction and hemichannel activity. Different from CX43 ablation mouse models, the CX43R239Q mutation leads to the AR CMD-like phenotype in Cx43KI/KI mice not only by loss-of-function but also via a not yet revealed dominant function.

Abstract
Osteoporosis results from an imbalance in a highly balanced physiological process called bone remodeling, in which osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and osteoblast-mediated bone formation play important roles. Osteoimmunology is a newly discovered interdisciplinary research field that focuses on the relationship between bone and the immune system. Specifically, bone and the immune system interact through cytokines, immune cells secrete cytokines, and cytokines finely regulate bone metabolism by mediating the differentiation and activity of osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Therefore, understanding the influence of cytokines on bone metabolism is conducive for the development of novel targeted drugs against immune-related bone diseases. This review summarizes the pathophysiological functions of various common cytokines in bone and discusses the potential clinical value of multiple cytokines in immune-mediated bone diseases.

Abstract
Osteoclasts overactivity plays a critical role in the progress of inflammatory bone loss. In addition, ROS can facilitate the formation and function of osteoclasts. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with ROS scavenging activity are potential candidates for inflammatory bone loss. In this regard, the biosynthetic Ag NPs with low toxicity and high stability by using Flos Sophorae Immaturus extract as the reducing and capping agents are reported. The inflammatory bone loss model is established by injecting LPS. Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western Blot are utilized to determine the expression level of target biomarkers related to osteoclast formation. Ag NPs can significantly reduce the number of TRAP-positive (TRAP+ ) cells. In addition, Ag NPs down-regulate the expression of biomarkers relevant to osteoclast formation. Interestingly, Ag NPs can effectively suppress osteoclast formation via down-regulating ROS-mediated phosphorylation of NF-κB pathways. The in vivo study shows that Ag NPs can ameliorate bone density and decrease osteoclast number. Due to these benefits, the constructed Ag NPs can delay the progression of inflammatory bone loss. These findings suggest that Ag NPs are a potential therapeutic agent in the treatment of inflammatory bone loss.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease characterized by synovitis, bone and cartilage destruction, and increased fracture risk with bone loss. Although disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) have dramatically improved clinical outcomes, these therapies are not universally effective in all patients due to the heterogeneity of RA pathogenesis. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying RA pathogenesis, including associated bone loss, in order to identify novel therapeutic targets. In this study, we found that Budding uninhibited by benzimidazoles 1 (BUB1) was highly expressed in RA patients' synovium and murine ankle tissue with arthritis. As CD45+CD11b+ myeloid cells are a Bub1 highly expressing population among synovial cells in mice, myeloid cell-specific Bub1 conditional knockout (Bub1ΔLysM) mice were generated. Bub1ΔLysM mice exhibited reduced femoral bone mineral density (BMD) when compared to control mice under K/BxN serum-transfer arthritis (STA), with no significant differences in joint inflammation or bone erosion based on a semi-quantitative erosion score and histological analysis. Bone histomorphometry revealed that femoral bone mass of Bub1ΔLysM under arthritis was reduced by increased osteoclastic bone resorption. RNA-seq and subsequent Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) demonstrated a significantly enriched NF-κB pathway among up-regulated genes in RANKL-stimulated bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) obtained from Bub1ΔLysM mice. Indeed, osteoclastogenesis using BMMs derived from Bub1ΔLysM was enhanced by RANKL and TNFα or RANKL and IL-1β treatment compared to controls. Finally, osteoclastogenesis was increased by Bub1 inhibitor BAY1816032 treatment in BMMs derived from wildtype mice. These data suggest that Bub1 expressed in macrophages plays a protective role against inflammatory arthritis-associated bone loss through inhibition of inflammation-mediated osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
The traditional view posits that bones and muscles interact primarily through mechanical coupling. However, recent studies have revealed that myokines, proteins secreted by skeletal muscle cells, play a crucial role in the regulation of bone metabolism. Myokines are widely involved in bone metabolism, influencing bone resorption and formation by interacting with factors related to bone cell secretion or influencing bone metabolic pathways. Here, we review the research progress on the myokine regulation of bone metabolism, discuss the mechanism of myokine regulation of bone metabolism, explore the pathophysiological relationship between sarcopenia and osteoporosis, and provide future perspectives on myokine research, with the aim of identify potential specific diagnostic markers and therapeutic entry points.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are accumulating type 2 diabetes patients who have osteoporosis simultaneously. More effective therapeutic strategies should be discovered. Biochanin A (BCA) has been indicated that can play a role in improving metabolic disorders of type 2 diabetes and preventing osteoporosis. But whether BCA can treat type 2 diabetic osteoporosis has not been studied. PURPOSE To investigate if the BCA can protect against type 2 diabetic osteoporosis and clarify the mechanism. METHODS Micro-CT and histology assays were performed to detect the trabecular bone and analyze the bone histomorphology effect of BCA. CCK-8 assay was performed to detect the toxicity of BCA. TRAcP staining, immunofluorescence and hydroxyapatite resorption assay were used to observe osteoclasts differentiation and resorptive activity. Molecular docking provided evidence about BCA regulating the MAPK axis via prediction by the algorithm. QRT-PCR and Western Blotting were utilized to detect the expression of osteoclastogenesis-related markers and MAPK signaling pathway. RESULTS Accumulation of bone volume after BCA treatment could be found based on the 3D reconstruction. Besides, there were fewer osteoclasts in db/db mice treated with BCA than db/db mice treated with saline. In vitro, we found that BCA hadn't toxicity in osteoclasts precursor, but also inhibited differentiation of osteoclasts. Further, we found that BCA suppresses osteoclastogenesis via ROS/MAPK signaling pathway. CONCLUSION BCA can prevent type 2 diabetic osteoporosis by restricting osteoclast differentiation via ROS/MAPK signaling pathway.

Abstract
Cathepsin K (CtsK) is a cysteine protease with potent collagenase activity. CtsK is highly expressed by bone-resorbing osteoclasts and plays an essential role in bone remodeling. Although CtsK is known to bind heparan sulfate (HS), the structural details of the interaction, and how HS ultimately regulates the biological functions of CtsK, remains largely unknown. In this report, we determined that CtsK preferably binds to larger HS oligosaccharides, such as dodecasaccharides (12mer), and that the12mer can induce monomeric CtsK to form a stable dimer in solution. Interestingly, while HS has no effect on the peptidase activity of CtsK, it greatly inhibits the collagenase activity of CtsK in a manner dependent on sulfation level. By forming a complex with CtsK, HS was able to preserve the full peptidase activity of CtsK for prolonged periods, likely by stabilizing its active conformation. Crystal structures of Ctsk with a bound 12mer, alone and in the presence of the endogenous inhibitor cystatin-C reveal the location of HS binding is remote from the active site. Mutagenesis based on these complex structures identified 6 basic residues of Ctsk that play essential roles in mediating HS-binding. At last, we show that HS 12mers can effectively block osteoclast resorption of bone in vitro. Combined, we have shown that HS can function as a multifaceted regulator of CtsK and that HS-based oligosaccharide might be explored as a new class of selective CtsK inhibitor in many diseases that involve exaggerated bone resorption.

Abstract
Immune cells educated by the primary breast tumor and their secreted factors support the formation of bone pre-metastatic niche. Indeed, we showed that RANKL+ CD3+ T cells, specific for the 4T1 mammary carcinoma cell line, arrive at the bone marrow before metastatic cells and set the pre-metastatic niche. In the absence of RANKL expressed by T cells, there is no pre-metastatic osteolytic disease and bone metastases are completely blocked. Adding to the role of T cells, we have recently demonstrated that dendritic cells assist RANKL+ T cell activities at bone pre-metastatic niche, by differentiating into potent bone resorbing osteoclast-like cells, keeping their antigen-presenting cell properties, providing a positive feedback loop to the osteolytic profile. Here we are showing that bone marrow-derived CD19+ B cells, from 4T1 tumor-bearing mice, also express the pro-osteoclastogenic cytokine receptor activator of NFκB ligand (RANKL). Analysis of trabecular bone mineral density by conventional histomorphometry and X-ray microtomography (micro-CT) demonstrated that B cells expressing RANKL cooperate with 4T1-primed CD3+ T cells to induce bone loss. Moreover, RANKL expression by B cells depends on T cells activity, since experiments performed with B cells derived from 4T1 tumor-bearing nude BALB/c mice resulted in the maintenance of trabecular bone mass instead of bone loss. Altogether, we believe that 4T1-primed RANKL+ B cells alone are not central mediators of bone loss in vivo but when associated with T cells induce a strong decrease in bone mass, accelerating both breast cancer progression and bone metastases establishment. Although several studies performed in different pathological settings, showed that B cells, positively and negatively impact on osteoclastogenesis, due to their capacity to secret pro or anti-osteoclastogenic cytokines, as far as we know, this is the first report showing the role of RANKL expression by B cells on breast cancer-derived bone metastases scenario.

Abstract
Macrophages are a key player to regulate rheumatoid arthritis pathogenesis from onset to remission. They can alter innate functions under microenvironmental conditions. To understand heterogeneous functions of macrophages in rheumatoid arthritis, several activated statuses of macrophages should be mimicked in vitro. Here, we describe basic protocols for macrophage polarization and osteoclast differentiation.

Abstract
The preservation of tissue specific cells in their native 3D extracellular matrix in bone explants provides a unique platform to study remodeling. Thus far, studies involving bone explant cultures showed a clear focus on achieving bone formation and neglected osteoclast activity and resorption. To simulate the homeostatic bone environment ex vivo, both key elements of bone remodeling need to be represented. This study aimed to assess and include osteoclastogenesis in human osteochondral explants through medium supplementation with RANKL and M-CSF and addition of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), providing osteoclast precursors. Osteochondral explants were freshly harvested from human femoral heads obtained from hip surgeries and cultured for 20 days in a two-compartment culture system. Osteochondral explants preserved viability and cellular abundance over the culture period, but histology demonstrated that resident osteoclasts were no longer present after 4 days of culture. Quantitative extracellular tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) analysis confirmed depletion of osteoclast activity on day 4 even when stimulated with RANKL and M-CSF. Upon addition of PBMCs, a significant upregulation of TRAP activity was measured from day 10 onwards. Evaluation of bone loss trough μCT registration and measurement of extracellular cathepsin K activity revealed indications of enhanced resorption upon addition of PBMCs. Based on the results we suggest that an external source of osteoclast precursors, such as PBMCs, needs to be added in long-term bone explant cultures to maintain osteoclastic activity, and bone remodeling.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our study explored the function of DOT1L in osteoporosis (OP) via the microRNA (miR)-181/KAT2B/SRSF1 axis. METHODS Osteoclast (OC) number was evaluated via TRAP staining, and serum CTXI, PINP, and ALP contents were tested by ELISA. Following identification of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), OC differentiation was induced by M-CSF and RANKL, followed by the detection of OC differentiation and the expression of bone resorption-related genes, DOT1L, miR-181, KAT2B, and SRSF1. RESULTS Overexpressed DOT1L or miR-181 stimulated calcified nodule formation and increased alkaline phosphatase activity and osteogenic marker gene expression. KAT2B knockdown enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs by reducing SRSF1 acetylation. The enhancement of OC differentiation induced by overexpressed SRSF1 was inhibited by simultaneous DOT1L or miR-181 overexpression. DOT1L suppressed OP development in vivo via the miR-181/KAT2B/SRSF1 axis. CONCLUSION DOT1L overexpression slowed down bone loss and promoted bone formation via the miR-181/KAT2B/SRSF1 axis, thereby alleviating OP development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the novel function of MYO6 on Osteoclast differentiation and its joint destruction capacity in Rheumatoid arthritis mice model. METHODS We examined joint erosion in a collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mouse model using micro-CT, with the mice having a MYO6 knockout background. Inflammatory cytokines were analyzed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In vitro, we investigated the osteoclastogenesis ability of bone marrow-derived macrophages isolated from MYO6-/- mice and their littermate controls, examining both morphological and functional differences. Furthermore, we explored podosome formation and endosome maturation using immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS We found that MYO6 deficiency attenuated arthritis development and bone destruction in CIA mice as well as impaired osteoclast differentiation by inhibiting NFATc1 induction. Our findings indicate that MYO6 is essential for the organization of podosomes by modulating the FAK/AKT and integrin-β3/Src pathways. MYO6 also mediates endosome transportation by regulating the expression of Rab5 and GM130. This may impact the maintenance and functionality of the ruffled border, as well as the regulation of autophagy in osteoclasts. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated a critical function of MYO6 in osteoclast differentiation and its potential relevance in experimental arthritis.

Abstract
Bromodomain and PHD finger-containing (BRPF) proteins function as epigenetic readers that specifically recognize acetylated lysine residues on histone tails. The acetyl-lysine binding pocket of BRPF has emerged as an attractive target for the development of protein interaction inhibitors owing to its potential druggability. In this study, we identified 3-acetylindoles as bone antiresorptive agents with a novel scaffold by performing structure-based virtual screening and hit optimization. Among those derivatives, compound 18 exhibited potent and selective inhibitory activities against BRPF1B (IC50 = 102 nM) as well as outstanding inhibitory activity against osteoclastogenesis (73.8% @ 1 μM) and differentiation (IC50 = 0.19 μM) without cytotoxicity. Besides, cellular mechanism assays demonstrated that compound 18 exhibited a strong bone antiresorptive effect by modulating the RANKL/RANK/NFATc1 pathway. Structural and functional studies on BRPF1 inhibitors aid in making advances to understand the epigenetic mechanisms of bone cell development and create innovative therapeutics for treating bone metastases from solid tumors and other bone erosive diseases.

Abstract
Lipoproteins are immunostimulatory bacterial components suggested to participate in inflammation-induced bone loss in periodontal disease through stimulation of osteoclast differentiation. Toll-like receptor 2 activation by Pam2CSK4 (PAM2), known to mimic bacterial lipoproteins, was previously shown to enhance periodontal bone resorption in mice. The anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a known inhibitor of RANKL-induced bone resorption in vitro. Here, we have investigated whether IL-4 could decrease PAM2-induced periodontal bone loss and osteoclastogenesis in vivo. In a model of periodontitis induced by gingival injections of PAM2 in mice, concomitant injections of IL-4 reduced bone loss. Histologically, IL-4 reduced the recruitment of inflammatory cells and the formation of TRAP+ osteoclasts stimulated by PAM2. Mouse bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) and neonatal calvarial osteoblasts were used to assess the effect of IL-4 on PAM2-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro. In RANKL-primed BMMs stimulated by PAM2 Nfatc1, Ctsk, and Acp5 gene expression was up-regulated and resulted in robust formation of TRAP+ multinucleated osteoclasts, effects which were impaired by IL-4. These effects were mediated by impairment in PAM2-induced c-fos expression. In primary calvarial osteoblast cultures, IL-4 decreased PAM2-induced Tnfsf11 (encoding RANKL) mRNA and enhanced Tnfrsf11b (encoding OPG) expression. Our data demonstrate that the osteoprotective effect by IL-4 on lipoprotein-induced periodontal disease occurs through the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis by three mechanisms, one by acting directly on osteoclast progenitors, another by acting indirectly through decreasing the expression of osteoclast-regulating cytokines in osteoblasts and a third by decreasing inflammation.

Abstract
Sex-specific differences in bone integrity and properties are associated with age as well as the number and activity of cells involved in bone remodeling. The aim of this study was to investigate sex-specific differences in adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of mouse bone marrow derived cells into osteoclasts. The adherent fraction of bone marrow- derived cells from 12-week-old male and female C57BL/6J mice were assessed for their adhesion, proliferation, and receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANKL)-induced differentiation into osteoclasts. Female bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) displayed higher adhesion and proliferation ratio upon macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) (day 0) and M-CSF + RANKL (day 4) treatment, respectively. On the contrary, male BMDMs differentiated more efficiently into osteoclasts upon RANKL-treatment compared to females (day 5). To further understand these sex-specific differences at the gene expression level, BMDMs treated with M-CSF (day 0) and M-CSF + RANKL (day 4), were assessed for their differential expression of genes through RNA sequencing. M-CSF treatment resulted in 1106 differentially expressed genes, while RANKL-treatment gave 473 differentially expressed genes. Integrin, adhesion, and proliferation-associated genes were elevated in the M-CSF-treated female BMDMs. RANKL-treatment further enhanced the expression of the proliferation- associated genes, and of genes associated with inhibition of osteoclast differentiation in the females, while RANK-signaling-associated genes were upregulated in males. In conclusion, BMDM adhesion, proliferation and differentiation into osteoclasts are sex-specific and may be directed by the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway for proliferation, and the colony stimulating factor 1-receptor and the RANKLsignaling pathway for the differentiation.

Abstract
Gelsegansymines A (1) and B (2), two new indole alkaloids along with six known analogues (3-8) were isolated from the aerial parts of Gelsemium elegans. Their structures were elucidated by means of spectroscopic techniques. Structurally, compounds 1 and 2 possessed the rare cage-like gelsedine skeleton hybrid with bicyclic monoterpenoid. The anti-inflammatory activities of isolated compounds (1-3) were tested on LPS induced RAW264.7 cells. Under the treated concentration without toxicity for cells, the cytokines levels of nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were evaluated by Griess method and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed that compounds 1-3 exhibited anti-inflammatory activities with dose-dependent manner range from 12.5 to 50 μmol/L. Furthermore, the inhibitory activities of compounds 1 and 2 on receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) induced osteoclast formation were tested in vitro. Compounds 1 and 2 at 5 μmol/L exhibited the significant inhibitory effect on the osteoclastogenesis induced by RANKL. This work reported the anti-inflammatory and osteoclast inhibitory activities of new monoterpenoid indole hybrids, which may inspire the further light on the related traditional application research of G. elegans.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Osteoclasts are crucial for the dynamic remodeling of bone as they resorb old and damaged bone, making space for new bone. Metabolic reprogramming in these cells not only supports phenotypic changes, but also provides the necessary energy for their highly energy-consuming activity, bone resorption. In this review, we highlight recent developments in our understanding of the metabolic adaptations that influence osteoclast behavior and the overall remodeling of bone tissue. RECENT FINDINGS Osteoclasts undergo metabolic reprogramming to meet the energy demands during their transition from precursor cells to fully mature bone-resorbing osteoclasts. Recent research has made considerable progress in pinpointing crucial metabolic adaptations and checkpoint proteins in this process. Notably, glucose metabolism, mitochondrial biogenesis, and oxidative respiration were identified as essential pathways involved in osteoclast differentiation, cytoskeletal organization, and resorptive activity. Furthermore, the interaction between these pathways and amino acid and lipid metabolism adds to the complexity of the process. These interconnected processes can function as diverse fuel sources or have independent regulatory effects, significantly influencing osteoclast function. Energy metabolism in osteoclasts involves various substrates and pathways to meet the energetic requirements of osteoclasts throughout their maturation stages. This understanding of osteoclast biology may provide valuable insights for modulating osteoclast activity during the pathogenesis of bone-related disorders and may pave the way for the development of innovative therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide anion radical (O2-•), and other forms of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced by the vast majority of mammalian cells and can contribute both to cellular homeostasis and dysfunction. The NADPH oxidases (NOX) enzymes and the mitochondria electron transport chain (ETC) produce most of the cellular ROS. Multiple antioxidant systems prevent the accumulation of excessive amounts of ROS which cause damage to all cellular macromolecules. Many studies have examined the contribution of ROS to different bone cell types and to skeletal physiology and pathophysiology. Here, we discuss the role of H2O2 and O2-• and their major enzymatic sources in osteoclasts and osteoblasts, the fundamentally different ways via which these cell types utilize mitochondrial derived H2O2 for differentiation and function, and the molecular mechanisms that impact and are altered by ROS in these cells. Particular emphasis is placed on evidence obtained from mouse models describing the contribution of different sources of ROS or antioxidant enzymes to bone resorption and formation. Findings from studies using pharmacological or genetically modified mouse models indicate that an increase in H2O2 and perhaps other ROS contribute to the loss of bone mass with aging and estrogen deficiency, the two most important causes of osteoporosis and increased fracture risk in humans.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Metformin is an anti-glycemic agent, which is widely prescribed to diabetes patients. Although its alleged role on bone strength has been reported for some time, this review focuses primarily on the recent mechanistical insights of metformin on osteocytes, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts. RECENT FINDINGS Overall, metformin contributed to steering anabolic activity in osteocytes. It caused lower expression in osteocytes of the negative regulators of bone formation sclerostin and DKK1. Likewise, the osteoclastogenesis function of osteoblasts was also skewed towards lower RANKL and higher OPG expressions. Osteoblast lineage cells generally responded to metformin by activating bone formation parameters, such as alkaline phosphatase activity, higher expression of anabolic members of the Wnt pathway, transcription factor Runx2, bone matrix protein proteins, and subsequent mineralization. Metformin affected osteoclast formation and activity in a negative way, reducing the number of multinucleated cells in association with lower expression of typical osteoclast markers and with inhibited resorption. A common denominator studied in all three cell types is its beneficial effect on activating phosphorylated AMP kinase (AMPK) which is associated with the coordination of energy metabolism. Metformin differentially affects bone cells, shifting the balance to more bone formation. Although metformin is a drug prescribed for diabetic patients, the overall bone anabolic effects on osteocytes and osteoblasts and the anti-catabolic effect on osteoclast suggest that metformin could be seen as a promising drug in the bone field.

Abstract
Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a potentially intractable disease with no definitive pathophysiology and no treatment and prevention strategies. This study aimed to investigate whether time-selective depletion of macrophages worsens BRONJ-like lesions in mice. A murine model of high-prevalence BRONJ-like lesions in combination with zoledronate/chemotherapeutic drug administration and tooth extraction was created according to the methods of our previous studies. Daily intra-oral submucosal administration of clodronate-loaded liposomes, which temporarily depletes systemic macrophages, was performed immediately after tooth extraction. Spleens, femora, tibiae, and maxillae were dissected 2 weeks after extraction to evaluate BRONJ-like lesions and systemic conditions by micro-computed tomography analysis, histomorphometric and immunofluorescent analyses, and serum chemistry with ELISA. Depletion of macrophages significantly decreased the numbers of local and systemic macrophages and osteoclasts on the bone surface, which markedly worsened osseous healing, with increased necrotic bone and empty lacunae in the existing alveolar bone and newly formed bone in the extraction sockets, and soft tissue healing, with decreased collagen production and increased infiltration of polymorphonuclear cells. Interestingly, the depletion of macrophages significantly shifted macrophage polarization to M1 macrophages through an increase in F4/80+CD38+ M1 macrophages and a decrease in F4/80+CD163+ M2 macrophages, with decreases in the total number of F4/80+ macrophages. These data demonstrated that severe inhibition of osteoclasts in bone tissue and polarization shifting of macrophages in soft tissue are essential factors associated with BRONJ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have reported the association between osteoporosis and major depressive disorder (MDD) as well as the use of antidepressants. However, it remains to be elucidated whether these associations are related to exposure to antidepressants, a consequence of a disease process, or a combination of both. METHODS This study investigates the independent effect of the antidepressant duloxetine hydrochloride (DH) on ovariectomy-induced bone loss in mice. One week after ovariectomy, the treated mice received DH. To explore the mechanism underlying the rescue of bone loss, bone marrow cells were isolated from mouse femurs and tibias, and macrophages extracted from them were induced to become osteoclasts in vitro while being treated with DH. Subsequently, the osteoclasts underwent Bulk RNA-Seq to reveal the involved signaling pathways. The results of the bioinformatic analysis were then validated through in vitro experiments. RESULTS The in vivo experiments demonstrated that DH treatment compromised ovariectomy-induced bone loss after 7 weeks. The in vitro experiments suggested that DH treatment attenuated osteoclast differentiation via the MAPKs/NFATc1 signaling pathway. CONCLUSION The findings from this study suggest that DH, instead of causing bone mass loss, may assist in alleviating postmenopausal osteoporosis. These results can serve as a reference for the clinical treatment of patients with perimenopausal or postmenopausal depression using antidepressants.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is a tightly coupled process between bone forming osteoblasts (OBs) and bone resorbing osteoclasts (OCs) to maintain bone architecture and systemic mineral homeostasis throughout life. However, the mechanisms responsible for the coupling between OCs and OBs have not been fully elucidated. Herein, we first validate that secreted extracellular vesicles by osteoclasts (OC-EVs) promote osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and further demonstrate the efficacy of osteoclasts and their secreted EVs in treating tibial bone defects. Furthermore, we show that OC-EVs contain several osteogenesis-promoting proteins as cargo. By employing proteomic and functional analysis, we reveal that mature osteoclasts secrete thrombin cleaved phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1) through extracellular vesicles which triggers MSCs osteogenic differentiation into OBs by activating Transforming Growth Factor β1 (TGFβ1) and Smad family member 3 (SMAD3) signaling. In conclusion, our findings prove an important role of SPP1, present as cargo in OC-derived EVs, in signaling to MSCs and driving their differentiation into OBs. This biological mechanism implies a paradigm shift regarding the role of osteoclasts and their signaling toward the treatment of skeletal disorders which require bone formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ever since their discovery, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been extensively differentiated into a large variety of cell types. However, a limited amount of work has been dedicated to differentiating iPSCs into osteoclasts. While several differentiation protocols have been published, it remains unclear which protocols or differentiation methods are preferable regarding the differentiation of osteoclasts. METHODS In this study, we compared the osteoclastogenesis capacity of a peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-derived iPSC line to a fibroblast-derived iPSC line in conjunction with either embryoid body-based or monolayer-based differentiation strategies. Both cell lines and differentiation protocols were investigated regarding their ability to generate osteoclasts and their inherent robustness and ease of use. The ability of both cell lines to remain undifferentiated while propagating using a feeder-free system was assessed using alkaline phosphatase staining. This was followed by evaluating mesodermal differentiation and the characterization of hematopoietic progenitor cells using flow cytometry. Finally, osteoclast yield and functionality based on resorptive activity, Cathepsin K and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) expression were assessed. The results were validated using qRT-PCR throughout the differentiation stages. RESULTS Embryoid body-based differentiation yielded CD45+, CD14+, CD11b+ subpopulations which in turn differentiated into osteoclasts which demonstrated TRAP positivity, Cathepsin K expression and mineral resorptive capabilities. This was regardless of which iPSC line was used. Monolayer-based differentiation yielded lower quantities of hematopoietic cells that were mostly CD34+ and did not subsequently differentiate into osteoclasts. CONCLUSIONS The outcome of this study demonstrates the successful differentiation of osteoclasts from iPSCs in conjunction with the embryoid-based differentiation method, while the monolayer-based method did not yield osteoclasts. No differences were observed regarding osteoclast differentiation between the PBMC and fibroblast-derived iPSC lines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteomyelitis is one of the most challenging infectious diseases and is mainly caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In this study, we analyzed the effect of S. aureus on osteoclast differentiation and its possible molecular mechanism. METHODS We cultured RAW 264.7 cells with live S. aureus for 5 days. We assessed cell viability and the formation of resorption pits. We tested the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathways and measured the mRNA expression levels of osteoclastspecific genes, including TRAP, MMP9, cathepsin K, calcitonin receptor and ATP6V0d2. Furthermore, we analyzed the protein expression levels of the protein in the NF-κB and p38 MAPK signaling pathways to clarify the signaling pathways by which S. aureus promotes osteoclast differentiation. RESULTS Staphylococcus aureus induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation. S. aureus promoted bone resorption and enhanced the expression of osteoclastspecific genes, such as TRAP, MMP9, cathepsin K, calcitonin receptor and ATP6V0d2. MCC950 was used to inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activity. Osteoclast differentiation and the expression of osteoclastspecific genes induced by S. aureus were inhibited by MCC950 pretreatment. The degradation of IκBα and phosphorylation of P65 were increased under the induction of S. aureus, but proteins in the p38 MAPK signaling pathway did not change significantly. CONCLUSION Staphylococcus aureus induces osteoclast differentiation and promotes bone resorption in vitro, and the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway plays a significant role in this process. S. aureus-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation was mainly dependent on the NF-κB signaling pathway during osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
Patients with type II diabetes are exposed to a high risk of osteoporosis. The present study sought to exploit the detailed mechanisms of the SENP3/HIF-1α/PPAR-γ axis in osteoporosis. A rat model of type II diabetic osteoporosis was established, followed by the isolation of bone marrow mononuclear macrophages (BMMs). Gain- and loss-of-function assays were conducted in rat models and BMMs from rat models, followed by the evaluation of SENP3, HIF-1α, and PPAR-γ expression and detection of osteoclast differentiation-related indexes. Next, the SUMOylated modification of HIF-1α and the regulation of SENP3 on SUMOylated modification level of HIF-1α were assessed using immunoprecipitation, and the binding of HIF-1α to the PPARγ promoter was identified with ChIP and dual-luciferase reporter assays. SENP3 and HIF-1α expression was down-regulated in tissues of type II diabetes-induced osteoporotic rats and BMMs, with high SUMOylated modification levels of HIF-1α. Mechanically, HIF-1α was modified by SUMO2/3. SENP3 suppressed SUMOylated modification of HIF-1α and enhanced HIF-1α stability. HIF-1α bound to the PPAR-γ promoter and facilitated PPAR-γ transcription. SENP3 overexpression restrained osteoblast differentiation in type II diabetes-induced osteoporotic rats and BMMs from rat models. SENP3 knockdown facilitated osteoclast differentiation in type II diabetes-induced osteoporotic rats and BMMs from rat models, which was neutralized by further HIF-1α overexpression. To sum up, SENP3 overexpression restrained osteoclast differentiation in type II diabetic osteoporosis by increasing HIF-1α stability and expression and thus promoting PPAR-γ expression via de-SUMOylation, which might expand the understanding of the mechanisms of type II diabetes combined with osteoporosis.

Abstract
Orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) is achieved by the simultaneous activation of bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. When orthodontic forces are applied, osteoclast-mediated bone resorption occurs in the alveolar bone on the compression side, creating space for tooth movement. Therefore, controlling osteoclastogenesis is the fundamental tenet of orthodontic treatment. Orthodontic forces are sensed by osteoblast lineage cells such as periodontal ligament (PDL) cells and osteocytes. Of several cytokines produced by these cells, the most important cytokine promoting osteoclastogenesis is the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), which is mainly supplied by osteoblasts. Additionally, osteocytes embedded within the bone matrix, T lymphocytes in inflammatory conditions, and PDL cells produce RANKL. Besides RANKL, inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor-α, and prostaglandin E2 promote osteoclastogenesis under OTM. On the downside, excessive osteoclastogenesis activation triggers orthodontically-induced external root resorption (ERR) through pro-osteoclastic inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of osteoclastogenesis during OTM is essential in reducing the adverse effects of orthodontic treatment. Here, we review the current concepts of the mechanisms underlying osteoclastogenesis in OTM and orthodontically induced ERR.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a degenerative disease affecting millions of elderly people globally and increases the risk of bone fractures due to the reduced bone density. Drugs are normally prescribed to treat osteoporosis, especially after surgical treatment of osteoporotic fractures. However, many anti-osteoporotic drugs produce deleterious side effects. The recent development of gene therapy utilizing oligonucleotides (ONs) has spurred the development of new therapies for osteoporosis. Nevertheless, most ONs lack the capability of cell penetration and lysosome escape and hence, intracellular delivery of ON remains a challenge. Herein, a novel strategy is demonstrated to efficiently deliver ON to cells by combining ON with the cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) via the bio-orthogonal click reaction. Several dopamine (DOPA) groups are also introduced into the fabricated peptide to scavenge intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Owing to favorable properties such as good cytocompatibility, cell penetration, lysosome escape, ROS scavenging, and osteoclastogenesis suppression, the hybrid CPP-DOPA-ON peptide improves the osteoporotic conditions significantly in vivo even when bone implants are involved. This strategy has great potential in the treatment of osteoporosis and potentially broadens the scope of gene therapy.

Abstract
Extracellular pyrophosphate (PPi) is well known for its fundamental role as a physiochemical mineralisation inhibitor. However, information about its direct actions on bone cells remains limited. This study shows that PPi decreased osteoclast formation and resorptive activity by ≤50 %. These inhibitory actions were associated with reduced expression of genes involved in osteoclastogenesis (Tnfrsf11a, Dcstamp) and bone resorption (Ctsk, Car2, Acp5). In osteoblasts, PPi present for the entire (0-21 days) or latter stages of culture (7-21/14-21 days) decreased bone mineralisation by ≤95 %. However, PPi present for the differentiation phase only (0-7/0-14 days) increased bone formation (≤70 %). Prolonged treatment with PPi resulted in earlier matrix deposition and increased soluble collagen levels (≤2.3-fold). Expression of osteoblast (RUNX2, Bglap) and early osteocyte (E11, Dmp1) genes along with mineralisation inhibitors (Spp1, Mgp) was increased by PPi (≤3-fold). PPi levels are regulated by tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) and ecto-nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (NPP1). PPi reduced NPP1 expression in both cell types whereas TNAP expression (≤2.5-fold) and activity (≤35 %) were increased in osteoblasts. Breakdown of extracellular ATP by NPP1 represents a key source of PPi. ATP release from osteoclasts and osteoblasts was decreased ≤60 % by PPi and by a selective TNAP inhibitor (CAS496014-12-2). Pertussis toxin, which prevents Gαi subunit activation, was used to investigate whether G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) signalling mediates the effects of PPi. The actions of PPi on bone mineralisation, collagen production, ATP release, gene/protein expression and osteoclast formation were abolished or attenuated by pertussis toxin. Together these findings show that PPi, modulates differentiation, function and gene expression in osteoblasts and osteoclasts. The ability of PPi to alter ATP release and NPP1/TNAP expression and activity indicates that cells can detect PPi levels and respond accordingly. Our data also raise the possibility that some actions of PPi on bone cells could be mediated by a Gαi-linked GPCR.

Abstract
Periodontitis, arguably the greatest common infective chronic inflammatory disease, is characterized by an imbalance of the host immune system and excessive osteoclastogenesis activity with severe alveolar bone loss. Nevertheless, in consideration of the harmful effects of repeated treatment, more sensible intervention drugs for periodontitis need to be developed. Artesunate (ART), derived from Artemisia annua L., has shown remarkable pharmacokinetic and clinical value, as well as anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects in various immune and chronic diseases due to its endoperoxide group. However, the role of ART in mediating periodontitis-induced alveolar bone resorption has not been examined. In this study, ART treatment effectively ameliorated ligature-induced periodontitis via attenuating osteoclast formation in a dose-dependent manner. Mechanistically, RNA-seq revealed that ART dramatically reduced the enrichment of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes. Concordant with our study, MCC950, a specific inhibitor of NLRP3 inflammasome, also greatly restrained osteoclastogenesis, suggesting that ART suppressed osteoclast formation by blocking NLRP3 inflammasome activation. In addition to regulating osteoclastogenesis, ART significantly enhanced osteogenic differentiation by alleviating the expression of cytokines in inflammatory conditions. Our data shed light on the probably potential mechanism of ART treatment for the intervention of periodontitis.

Abstract
Maintenance of skeletal integrity requires the coordinated activity of multinucleated bone-resorbing osteoclasts and bone-forming osteoblasts. Osteoclasts form resorption lacunae on bone surfaces in response to cytokines by fusion of precursor cells. Osteoblasts are derived from mesenchymal precursors and lay down new bone in resorption lacunae during bone remodeling. Nuclear factorkappa B (NF-κB) signaling regulates osteoclast and osteoblast formation and is activated in osteoclast precursors in response to the essential osteoclastogenic cytokine, receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), which can also control osteoblast formation through RANK-RANKL reverse signaling in osteoblast precursors. RANKL and some pro-inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF), activate NF-κB signaling to positively regulate osteoclast formation and functions. However, these cytokines also limit osteoclast and osteoblast formation through NF-κB signaling molecules, including TNF receptor-associated factors (TRAFs). TRAF6 mediates RANKL-induced osteoclast formation through canonical NF-κB signaling. In contrast, TRAF3 limits RANKL- and TNF-induced osteoclast formation, and it restricts transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)-induced inhibition of osteoblast formation in young and adult mice. During aging, neutrophils expressing TGFβ and C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) increase in bone marrow of mice in response to increased NF-κB-induced CC motif chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) expression by mesenchymal progenitor cells and injection of these neutrophils into young mice decreased bone mass. TGFβ causes degradation of TRAF3, resulting in decreased glycogen synthase kinase-3β/β-catenin-mediated osteoblast formation and age-related osteoporosis in mice. The CCR5 inhibitor, maraviroc, prevented accumulation of TGFβ+/CCR5+ neutrophils in bone marrow and increased bone mass by inhibiting bone resorption and increasing bone formation in aged mice. This paper updates current understanding of how NF-κB signaling is involved in the positive and negative regulation of cytokine-mediated osteoclast and osteoblast formation and activation with a focus on the role of TRAF3 signaling, which can be targeted therapeutically to enhance bone mass.

Abstract
Homeostatic imbalance involving progressive stimulation of osteoclast (OC) differentiation and function will lead to an increased risk of fragility fractures. In this regard, we investigated gallium acetylacetonate (GaAcAc) as a possible treatment for osteoclastic bone resorption. Further, the extent to which suitable delivery systems can enhance the therapeutic potential of GaAcAc was evaluated. GaAcAc solution (10-50 µg/mL) suppressed OC differentiation using murine monocytic RAW 264.7 or hematopoietic stem cells. Methylcellulose-based hydrogels were fabricated and characterized based on biocompatibility with bone cells, GaAcAc loading, and thermoresponsive behavior using storage (G') and loss (G″) moduli parameters. Compared to GaAcAc solution, hydrogels loaded with GaAcAc (GaMH) were more effective in suppressing OC differentiation and function. The number and extent of bone resorption pits from ex vivo studies were markedly reduced with GaMH treatment. Mechanistic assessment of GaMH efficacy showed superiority, compared to GaAcAc solution, in downregulating the expression of key markers involved in mediating OC differentiation (such as NFAT2, cFos, TRAF6, and TRAP) as well as in bone resorption by OCs (cathepsin K or CTSK). Additional studies (in vitro and in vivo) suggested that the performance of GaMH could be ascribed to controlled release of GaAcAc and the ability to achieve prolonged bio-retention after injection in BALB/c mice, which plausibly maximized the therapeutic impact of GaAcAc. Overall, the work demonstrated, for the first time, the therapeutic efficacy of GaAcAc and the therapeutic potential of GaMH delivery systems in osteoclastic bone resorption.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis, a chronic condition that predominantly affects postmenopausal women, presents a significant impediment to their overall well-being. The condition arises from estrogen deficiency, leading to enhanced osteoclast activity. Salvia miltiorrhiza, a well-established Chinese herbal medicine with a history of clinical use for osteoporosis treatment, contains diverse active constituents that have shown inhibitory effects on osteoclast formation and bone loss. Dihydrotanshinone I (DTI), a phenanthrenonequinone compound derived from the root of Salvia miltiorrhiza, has been identified as a potential therapeutic agent, although its mechanism of action on osteoclasts remains elusive. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the inhibitory potential of DTI on RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. We observed the ability of DTI to effectively impede the expression of key osteoclast-specific genes and proteins, as assessed by Real-time PCR and Western Blotting analyses. Mechanistically, DTI exerted its inhibitory effects on osteoclast formation by modulating critical signaling pathways including NF-κB, ERK, and calcium ion signaling. Notably, DTI intervention disrupted the nuclear translocation and subsequent transcriptional activity of the NFATc1, thus providing mechanistic insights into its inhibitory role in osteoclastogenesis. To further assess the therapeutic potential of DTI, we employed an ovariectomized osteoporosis animal model to examine its impact on bone loss. Encouragingly, DTI demonstrated efficacy in mitigating bone loss induced by estrogen deficiency. In conclusion, our investigation elucidates the ability of DTI to regulate multiple signaling pathways activated by RANKL, leading to the inhibition of osteoclast formation and prevention of estrogen-deficiency osteoporosis. Consequently, DTI emerges as a promising candidate for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Though articular cartilage stem cell (ACSC)-based therapies have been demonstrated to be a promising option in the treatment of diseased joints, the wide variety of cell isolation, the unknown therapeutic targets, and the incomplete understanding of the interactions of ACSCs with diseased microenvironments have limited the applications of ACSCs. METHODS In this study, the human ACSCs have been isolated from osteoarthritic articular cartilage by advantage of selection of anatomical location, the migratory property of the cells, and the combination of traumatic injury, mechanical stimuli and enzymatic digestion. The protective effects of ACSC infusion into osteoarthritis (OA) rat knees on osteochondral tissues were evaluated using micro-CT and pathological analyses. Moreover, the regulation of ACSCs on osteoarthritic osteoclasts and the underlying mechanisms in vivo and in vitro were explored by RNA-sequencing, pathological analyses and functional gain and loss experiments. The one-way ANOVA was used in multiple group data analysis. RESULTS The ACSCs showed typical stem cell-like characteristics including colony formation and committed osteo-chondrogenic capacity. In addition, intra-articular injection into knee joints yielded significant improvement on the abnormal subchondral bone remodeling of osteoarthritic rats. Bioinformatic and functional analysis showed that ACSCs suppressed osteoarthritic osteoclasts formation, and inflammatory joint microenvironment augmented the inhibitory effects. Further explorations demonstrated that ACSC-derived tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) remarkably contributed to the inhibition on osteoarhtritic osteoclasts and the improvement of abnormal subchondral bone remodeling. CONCLUSION In summary, we have reported an easy and reproducible human ACSC isolation strategy and revealed their effects on subchondral bone remodeling in OA rats by releasing TNFAIP3 and suppressing osteoclasts in a diseased microenvironment responsive manner.

Abstract
Nuclear factor erythroid-derived factor 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a master regulator of antioxidant response and protects cells from excessive oxidative stress. Nrf2 emerges as a prospective therapeutic target for metabolic bone disorders, in which the balance between osteoblastic bone formation and osteoclastic bone resorption is disrupted. However, the molecular mechanism through which Nrf2 modulates bone homeostasis remains unclear. In this study, we compared the differences in Nrf2-mediated antioxidant response and ROS regulation in osteoblasts and osteoclasts, both in vitro and in vivo. Findings indicated a close connection between the Nrf2 expression and its related antioxidant response with osteoclasts than osteoblasts. We next pharmacologically manipulated the Nrf2-mediated antioxidant response during osteoclast or osteoblast differentiation. Nrf2 inhibition enhanced osteoclastogenesis, while its activation suppressed it. In contrast, osteogenesis decreased irrespective of whether Nrf2 was inhibited or activated. These findings highlight the distinct ways in which the Nrf2-mediated antioxidant response regulates osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation, thereby contributing to the development of Nrf2 targeted therapies for metabolic bone diseases.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease marked by immune cell activation and chronic inflammation in the synovium accompanied by osteoclast activation and local joint destruction. Increased levels of the adipokine nesfatin-1 in RA synovium are associated with proinflammatory cytokines. Our analysis of datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and synovial tissue samples from RA patients revealed that these had higher levels of nesfatin-1 and osteoclast markers compared with normal synovium. These findings were the same in tissue samples from mice with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and normal healthy controls. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that nesfatin-1 increased levels of bone morphogenetic protein-5 (BMP5) expression via JAK/STAT signaling in RA synovial fibroblasts. Finally, we found that nesfatin-1 short hairpin RNA reduced BMP5 and osteoclast formation in CIA mice. These findings provide new insights into the pathogenesis of RA.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to apply the break-even point concept to express the dynamics of bone formation and resorption around implants. METHODS Published data on new bone and parent bone densities around implants from one human and three dog studies were selected and used for analysis. The break-even point (BEP) of the bone density (BD) was assessed. The BEP is the point at which, in a graph, the lines representing the formation of new bone and resorption of old bone intersect. BEP is expressed in time (x; days) of occurrence and percentage of bone (y; %) at which the break-even point occurs and illustrates the grade of bone modeling. The sooner the occurrence, the faster the bone formation in relation to the resorption of the old bone. RESULTS In the marrow and cortical compartments, BEP of bone density occurred after 7.9 days (BD% 24.5%) and >30 days, respectively. Different surfaces presented similar BEP, ranging between 9.7 and 11.2 days (BD% 19.1-22.5%). BEP at implants installed in the human maxilla occurred after 29-30.4 days (BD% 28.3-29.6%). CONCLUSION The present study showed that the parameters used to express the break-even point can provide information on the influence of the model used, surface characteristics, and bone quality on bone modeling/remodeling around implants.
