Kaempferide Prevents Titanium Particle Induced Osteolysis by Suppressing JNK Activation during Osteoclast Formation.

ABSTRACT: Kaempferide (KF) is an O-methylated flavonol, a natural plant extract, which is often found in Kaempferia galanga. It has a variety of effects including anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether KF effectively inhibits titanium particle induced calvarial bone loss via down regulation of the JNK signaling pathway. In the mice with titanium particle induced calvarial osteolysis, the Low dose of KF mildly reduced the resorption pits while in the high dose group, fewer scattered pits were observed on the surface of calvarium. Histological examination showed fewer osteoclasts formation in the KF group. In mouse bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) and RAW264.7 cells, KF significantly inhibited the osteoclast formation and bone resorption at 12.5??M. However, KF does not affect the mature osteoclast F-actin ring formation. But when being co-treated with KF and anisomycin, BMMs differentiated into mature osteoclasts. At the molecular levels, the JNK phosphorylation was inhibited and the osteoclastogenesis-related specific gene expression including V-ATPase d2, TRAP, calcitonin receptor (CTR), c-Fos and NFATc1 was markedly suppressed. In conclusion, these results indicated that KF is a promising agent in the treatment of osteoclast-related diseases.

Project description:Rationale: Wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis (PPO) is a common long-term complication of total joint arthroplasty, and represents the major cause of aseptic loosening and subsequent implant failure. Previous studies have identified the central role of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption in the pathogenesis of PPO. Thus, therapeutic approaches of inhibiting osteoclast formation and activity are considered to be of great potential to prevent and treat this osteolytic disease. Hedgehog (Hh) signaling has been shown to play an important role in promoting osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. While Hh signaling is also implicated in regulating osteoclastogenesis, whether it can directly inhibit osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption remains controversial. Moreover, its potential therapeutic effects on PPO have never been assessed. In this study, we explored the cell-autonomous role of Hh signaling in regulating osteoclastogenesis and its therapeutic potential in preventing wear particle-induced osteolysis. Methods: Hh signaling was activated in macrophages by genetically ablating Sufu in these cells using LysM-Cre or by treating them with purmorphamine (PM), a pharmacological activator of Smoothened (Smo). In vitro cell-autonomous effects of Hh pathway activation on RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and activity were evaluated by TRAP staining, phalloidin staining, qPCR analyses, and bone resorption assays. In vivo evaluation of its therapeutic efficacy against PPO was performed in a murine calvarial model of titanium particle-induced osteolysis by μCT and histological analyses. Mechanistic details were explored in RANKL-treated macrophages through Western blot analyses. Results: We found that Sufu deletion or PM treatment potently activated Hh signaling in macrophages, and strongly inhibited RANKL-induced TRAP+ osteoclast production, F-actin ring formation, osteoclast-specific gene expression, and osteoclast activity in vitro. Furthermore, we found that Sufu deletion or PM administration significantly attenuated titanium particle-induced osteoclast formation and bone loss in vivo. Our mechanistic study revealed that activation of Hh signaling suppressed RANKL-induced activation of JNK pathway and downregulated protein levels of two key osteoclastic transcriptional factors, c-Fos and its downstream target NFATc1. Conclusions: Both genetic and pharmacological activation of Hh signaling can cell-autonomously inhibit RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and activity in vitro and protect against titanium particle-induced osteolysis in vivo. Mechanistically, Hh signaling hinders osteoclastogenesis partly through suppressing the JNK/c-Fos-NFATc1 cascade. Thus, Hh signaling may serve as a promising therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of PPO and other osteolytic diseases.

Project description:Wear debris after total joint arthroplasty can attract the recruitment of macrophages, which release pro-inflammatory substances, triggering the activation of osteoclasts, thereby leading to periprosthetic osteolysis (PPOL) and aseptic loosening. However, the development of pharmacological strategies targeting osteoclasts to prevent periprosthetic osteolysis has not been fruitful. In this study, we worked toward researching the effects and mechanisms of a farnesyltransferase (FTase) inhibitor Lonafarnib (Lon) on receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption, as well as the impacts of Lon on titanium particle-induced osteolysis. To investigate the impacts of Lon on bone resorption and osteoclastogenesis in vitro, bone marrow macrophages were incubated and stimulated with RANKL and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). The influence of Lon on osteolysis prevention in vivo was examined utilizing a titanium particle-induced mouse calvarial osteolysis model. The osteoclast-relevant genes expression was explored by real-time quantitative PCR. Immunofluorescence was used to detect intracellular localization of nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFATc1). SiRNA silence assay was applied to examine the influence of FTase on osteoclasts activation. Related signaling pathways, including NFATc1 signaling, NF-κB, mitogen-activated protein kinases pathways were identified by western blot assay. Lon was illustrated to suppress bone resorptive function and osteoclastogenesis in vitro, and it also reduced the production of pro-inflammatory substances and prevented titanium particle-induced osteolysis in vivo. Lon decreased the expression of osteoclast-relevant genes and suppressed NFATc1 nuclear translocation and auto-amplification. Mechanistically, Lon dampened FTase, and inhibition of FTase reduced osteoclast formation by suppressing ERK signaling. Lon is a promising treatment option for osteoclast-related osteolysis diseases including periprosthetic osteolysis by targeted inhibition of FTase through suppressing ERK signaling.
