Desferrioxamine reduces ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene-induced osteolysis by restraining inflammatory osteoclastogenesis via heme oxygenase-1.

ABSTRACT: As wear particles-induced osteolysis still remains the leading cause of early implant loosening in endoprosthetic surgery, and promotion of osteoclastogenesis by wear particles has been confirmed to be responsible for osteolysis. Therapeutic agents targeting osteoclasts formation are considered for the treatment of wear particles-induced osteolysis. In the present study, we demonstrated for the first time that desferrioxamine (DFO), a powerful iron chelator, could significantly alleviate osteolysis in an ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) particles-induced mice calvaria osteolysis model. Furthermore, DFO attenuated calvaria osteolysis by restraining enhanced inflammatory osteoclastogenesis induced by UHMWPE particles. Consistent with the in vivo results, we found DFO was also able to inhibit osteoclastogenesis in a dose-dependent manner in vitro, as evidenced by reduction of osteoclasts formation and suppression of osteoclast specific genes expression. In addition, DFO dampened osteoclasts differentiation and formation at early stage but not at late stage. Mechanistically, the reduction of osteoclastogenesis by DFO was due to increased heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression, as decreased osteoclasts formation induced by DFO was significantly restored after HO-1 was silenced by siRNA, while HO-1 agonist COPP treatment enhanced DFO-induced osteoclastogenesis inhibition. In addition, blocking of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) signaling pathway promoted DFO-induced HO-1 expression, implicating that p38 signaling pathway was involved in DFO-mediated HO-1 expression. Taken together, our results suggested that DFO inhibited UHMWPE particles-induced osteolysis by restraining inflammatory osteoclastogenesis through upregulation of HO-1 via p38MAPK pathway. Thus, DFO might be used as an innovative and safe therapeutic alternative for treating wear particles-induced aseptic loosening.

Project description:BackgroundCell death and inflammation are the two important triggers of wear particle-induced osteolysis. Particles, including cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and tricalcium phosphate, have been reported to induce pyroptosis in macrophages and osteocytes. Although macrophage pyroptosis facilitates osteoclastic bone resorption and osteolysis, whether osteocyte pyroptosis is involved in osteoclastic osteolysis still needs further investigation. Desferrioxamine (DFO), an FDA-approved medication and a powerful iron chelator, has been proven to reduce ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) particle-induced osteolysis. However, whether DFO can ameliorate UHMWPE particle-induced osteolysis by decreasing pyroptosis in osteocytes is unknown.ResultsA mouse calvarial osteolysis model and the mouse osteocyte cell line MLO-Y4 was used, and we found that pyroptosis in osteocytes was significantly induced by UHMWPE particles. Furthermore, our findings uncovered a role of caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis in osteocytes in facilitating osteoclastic osteolysis induced by UHMWPE particles. In addition, we found that DFO could alleviate UHMWPE particle-induced pyroptosis in osteocytes in vivo and in vitro.ConclusionsWe uncovered a role of caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis in osteocytes in facilitating osteoclastic osteolysis induced by UHMWPE particles. Furthermore, we found that DFO alleviated UHMWPE particle-induced osteoclastic osteolysis partly by inhibiting pyroptosis in osteocytes. Schematic of DFO reducing UHMWPE particle-induced osteolysis by inhibiting osteocytic pyroptosis. Wear particles, such as polymers, generated from prosthetic implant materials activate canonical inflammasomes and promote the cleavage and activation of caspase-1. This is followed by caspase-1-dependent IL-β maturation and GSDMD cleavage. The N-terminal fragment of GSDMD binds to phospholipids on the cell membrane and forms holes in the membrane, resulting in the release of mature IL-β and inflammatory intracellular contents. This further facilitates osteoclastic differentiation of BMMs, resulting in excessive bone resorption and ultimately leading to prosthetic osteolysis. DFO reduces UHMWPE particle-induced osteolysis by inhibiting osteocytic pyroptosis.
