Puerarin Exerts Protective Effects on Wear Particle-Induced Inflammatory Osteolysis.

ABSTRACT: Wear particle-stimulated inflammatory bone destruction and the consequent aseptic loosening remain major postoperative problems for artificial joints. Studies have indicated that puerarin promotes osteogenesis and alleviates lipopolysaccharide-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro. However, the underlying molecular mechanism by which puerarin interacts with receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL)-mediated osteoclast formation in vitro and wear particle-stimulated osteolysis in vivo has not been reported. In this work, the protective effects exerted by puerarin on titanium particle-stimulated bone destruction in vivo and on RANKL-induced osteoclast activation in osteoclastic precursor cells in vitro were investigated. As expected, puerarin significantly inhibited wear particle-mediated bone resorption and proinflammatory cytokine productions in a calvarial resorption model. Additionally, puerarin inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast activation, bone resorption ability, and F-actin ring formation in vitro as puerarin concentration increased. Furthermore, mechanistic investigation indicated that reduced RANKL-stimulated MEK/ERK/NFATc1 signaling cascades might regulate the protective effect of puerarin. Conclusively, these results indicate that puerarin, a type of polyphenol, might serve as a protective agent to prevent osteoclast-related osteolytic diseases.

Project description:ObjectiveNetrin-1 is a chemorepulsant and matrix protein expressed during and required for osteoclast differentiation, which also plays a role in inflammation by preventing macrophage egress. Because wear particle-induced osteolysis requires osteoclast-mediated destruction of bone, we hypothesised that blockade of Netrin-1 or Unc5b, a receptor for Netrin-1, may diminish this pathological condition.MethodsC57BL/6 mice, 6-8 weeks old, had 3 mg of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene particles implanted over the calvaria and then received 10 µg of monoclonal antibodies for Netrin-1 or its receptors, Unc5b and deleted in colon cancer (DCC), injected intraperitoneally on a weekly basis. After 2 weeks, micro-computed tomography and histology analysis were performed. Netrin-1 expression was analysed in human tissue obtained following primary prosthesis implantation or after prosthesis revision for peri-implant osteolysis and aseptic implant loosening.ResultsWeekly injection of anti-Netrin-1 or anti-Unc5b-antibodies significantly reduced particle-induced bone pitting in calvaria exposed to wear particles (46±4% and 49±3% of control bone pitting, respectively, p<0.001) but anti-DCC antibody did not affect inflammatory osteolysis (80±7% of control bone pitting, p=ns). Anti-Netrin-1 or anti-Unc5b, but not anti-DCC, antibody treatment markedly reduced the inflammatory infiltrate and the number of tartrate resistance acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclasts (7±1, 4±1 and 14±1 cells/high power field (hpf), respectively, vs 12±1 cells/hpf for control, p<0.001), with no significant changes in alkaline phosphatase-positive osteoblasts on bone-forming surfaces in any antibody-treated group. Netrin-1 immunostaining colocalised with CD68 staining for macrophages. The peri-implant tissues of patients undergoing prosthesis revision surgery showed an increase in Netrin-1 expression, whereas there was little Netrin-1 expression in soft tissues removed at the time of primary joint replacement.ConclusionsThese results demonstrate a unique role for Netrin-1 in osteoclast biology and inflammation and may be a novel target for prevention/treatment of inflammatory osteolysis.
