Direct inhibition of human RANK+ osteoclast precursors identifies a homeostatic function of IL-1beta.

ABSTRACT: IL-1? is a key mediator of bone resorption in inflammatory settings, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). IL-1? promotes osteoclastogenesis by inducing RANKL expression on stromal cells and synergizing with RANKL to promote later stages of osteoclast differentiation. Because IL-1Rs share a cytosolic Toll-IL-1R domain and common intracellular signaling molecules with TLRs that can directly inhibit early steps of human osteoclast differentiation, we tested whether IL-1? also has suppressive properties on osteoclastogenesis in primary human peripheral blood monocytes and RA synovial macrophages. Early addition of IL-1?, prior to or together with RANKL, strongly inhibited human osteoclastogenesis as assessed by generation of TRAP(+) multinucleated cells. IL-1? acted directly on human osteoclast precursors (OCPs) to strongly suppress expression of RANK, of the costimulatory triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 receptor, and of the B cell linker adaptor important for transmitting RANK-induced signals. Thus, IL-1? rendered early-stage human OCPs refractory to RANK stimulation. Similar inhibitory effects of IL-1? were observed using RA synovial macrophages. One mechanism of RANK inhibition was IL-1?-induced proteolytic shedding of the M-CSF receptor c-Fms that is required for RANK expression. These results identify a homeostatic function of IL-1? in suppressing early OCPs that contrasts with its well-established role in promoting later stages of osteoclast differentiation. Thus, the rate of IL-1-driven bone destruction in inflammatory diseases, such as RA, can be restrained by its direct inhibitory effects on early OCPs to limit the extent of inflammatory osteolysis.

Project description:Cells with monocyte/macrophage lineage expressing receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) differentiate into osteoclasts following stimulation with the RANK ligand (RANKL). Cell adhesion signaling is also required for osteoclast differentiation from precursors. However, details of the mechanism by which cell adhesion signals induce osteoclast differentiation have not been fully elucidated. To investigate the participation of cell adhesion signaling in osteoclast differentiation, mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) were used as osteoclast precursors, and cultured on either plastic cell culture dishes (adherent condition) or the top surface of semisolid methylcellulose gel loaded in culture tubes (non-adherent condition). BMMs cultured under the adherent condition differentiated into osteoclasts in response to RANKL stimulation. However, under the non-adherent condition, the efficiency of osteoclast differentiation was markedly reduced even in the presence of RANKL. These BMMs retained macrophage characteristics including phagocytic function and gene expression profile. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and tumor necrosis factor -αTNF-α activated the NF-κB-mediated signaling pathways under both the adherent and non-adherent conditions, while RANKL activated the pathways only under the adherent condition. BMMs highly expressed RANK mRNA and protein under the adherent condition as compared to the non-adherent condition. Also, BMMs transferred from the adherent to non-adherent condition showed downregulated RANK expression within 24 hours. In contrast, transferring those from the non-adherent to adherent condition significantly increased the level of RANK expression. Moreover, interruption of cell adhesion signaling by echistatin, an RGD-containing disintegrin, decreased RANK expression in BMMs, while forced expression of either RANK or TNFR-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) in BMMs induced their differentiation into osteoclasts even under the non-adherent condition. These results suggest that cell adhesion signaling regulates RANK expression in osteoclast precursors.

Project description:Excessive osteoclast-mediated bone resorption is a critical cause of osteoporosis affecting many aging people worldwide. 5'-Methylthioadenosine (MTA) is a natural sulfur-containing nucleoside normally produced in prokaryotes, plants, yeast, and higher eukaryotes via polyamine metabolism. MTA affects various physiological responses particularly the inflammatory pathway in both normal and cancerous cells and modulates the activation of nuclear factor-κB involved in the osteoclastogenesis signalling process. While several studies have reported that natural products possess anti-osteoclastogenesis phenolics and flavonoids, the effect of nucleoside derivatives on osteoclastogenesis remains limited. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the molecular mechanisms by which MTA affects pre-osteoclastic RAW 264.7 cells as a potential alleviation compound for inflammation-mediated bone loss. Osteoclasts were established by incubating RAW264.7 macrophage cells with receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony-stimulating factor, the vital cytokines for activation of osteoclast differentiation. Cell viability was measured using MTT assays at 24, 48, and 72 h. The suppressive effect of MTA on RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and function was assessed using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) analysis, qRT-PCR, and pit formation, Western blot, and immunofluorescence assays. MTA showed dose-dependent anti-osteoclastogenic activity by inhibiting TRAP-positive cell and pit formation and reducing essential digestive enzymes, including TRAP, cathepsin K, and matrix metallopeptidase 9. MTA was observed to suppress the osteoclast transduction pathway through (RANKL)-induced nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NFƘB); it attenuated NFƘB-P65 expression and down-regulated cFos proto-oncogene and nuclear factor of activated T cell c1 (NFATc1), the main regulators of osteoclasts. Moreover, the suppression of RANK (the initial receptor triggering several osteoclastogenic transduction pathways) was observed. Thus, this study highlights the potential of MTA as an effective therapeutic compound for restoring bone metabolic disease by inhibiting the RANK-NFATc1 signal pathway.
