All-trans retinoic acid can antagonize osteoblastogenesis induced by different BMPs irrespective of their dimerization types and dose-efficiencies.

ABSTRACT: Introduction:Alcoholism can lead to low mineral density, compromised regenerative bone capacity and delayed osteointegration of dental implants. This may be partially attributed to the inhibitive effect of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), a metabolite of alcohol, on osteoblastogenesis. Our previous studies demonstrated that heterodimeric bone morphogenetic protein 2/7 (BMP2/7) was a more potent BMP than homodimeric BMP2 or BMP7, and could antagonize the inhibitive effect of ATRA to rescue osteoblastogenesis. Materials and methods:In this study, we compared the effectiveness of BMP2/7, BMP2 and BMP7 in restoring osteoblastogenesis of murine preosteoblasts upon inhibition with 1 µM ATRA, and we further analyzed the potential mechanisms. We measured the following parameters: cell viability, ALP, OCN, mineralization, the expression of osteogenic differentiation marker genes (Collagen I, ALP and OCN) and the expression of BMP signaling key genes (Dlx5, Runx2, Osterix and Smad1). Results:BMP2/7 treatment alone induced significantly higher osteoblastogenesis compared to BMP2 and BMP7. When cells were treated by ATRA, BMP2/7 was superior only in rescuing cell viability and ALP activity, compared to BMP2 or BMP7. However, BMP2/7 was not superior to BMP2 or BMP7 in restoring OCN expression and extracellular mineralized nodules, or in rescuing expression of two key osteogenic genes, Dlx5 and Runx2. Irrespective of their dimeric types or potency, the selected BMPs could antagonize the inhibitory effect of ATRA on osteoblastogenesis. Conclusion:The presence of ATRA, BMP2/7 still induced significantly higher cell viability and early differentiation than the homodimers. However, ATRA significantly attenuated the advantages of BMP2/7 in inducing late and final osteoblastogenic differentiation over the homodimers.

Project description:A large proportion of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are not fit for intensive and potentially curative therapy due to advanced age or comorbidity. Previous studies have demonstrated that a subset of these patients can benefit from disease-stabilizing therapy based on all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and valproic acid. Even though complete hematological remission is only achieved for exceptional patients, a relatively large subset of patients respond to this treatment with stabilization of normal peripheral blood cell counts.In this clinical study we investigated the efficiency and safety of combining (i) continuous administration of valproic acid with (ii) intermittent oral ATRA treatment (21.5 mg/m2 twice daily) for 14 days and low-dose cytarabine (10 mg/m2 daily) for 10 days administered subcutaneously. If cytarabine could not control hyperleukocytosis it was replaced by hydroxyurea or 6-mercaptopurin to keep the peripheral blood blast count below 50 × 109/L.The study included 36 AML patients (median age 77 years, range 48 to 90 years) unfit for conventional intensive chemotherapy; 11 patients responded to the treatment according to the myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) response criteria and two of these responders achieved complete hematological remission. The most common response to treatment was increased and stabilized platelet counts. The responder patients had a median survival of 171 days (range 102 to > 574 days) and they could spend most of this time outside hospital, whereas the nonresponders had a median survival of 33 days (range 8 to 149 days). The valproic acid serum levels did not differ between responder and nonresponder patients and the treatment was associated with a decrease in the level of circulating regulatory T cells.Treatment with continuous valproic acid and intermittent ATRA plus low-dose cytarabine has a low frequency of side effects and complete hematological remission is seen for a small minority of patients. However, disease stabilization is seen for a subset of AML patients unfit for conventional intensive chemotherapy.
