Octyl itaconate inhibits osteoclastogenesis by suppressing Hrd1 and activating Nrf2 signaling.

ABSTRACT: The endogenous metabolite itaconate has emerged as a regulator of macrophage function that limits inflammation. However, its effect on cell differentiation and osteoclast-related diseases is unclear. Here, for the first time, we explored the effect of itaconate and its cell-permeable itaconate derivative, 4-octyl itaconate (OI) on osteoclast differentiation in vitro and in vivo. Firstly, we demonstrated that itaconate concentration was lower in estrogen-deficient mice. OI released itaconate and induced the expression of nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in bone marrow-derived macrophages during osteoclastogenesis. Furthermore, OI significantly suppressed the early, middle, and late stages of osteoclastogenesis induced by receptor activator of NF-?B ligand in vitro, as confirmed by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining. Moreover, it significantly inhibited fibrous actin ring formation and bone resorption in vitro. Mechanistically, we observed that OI enhanced Nrf2 expression by suppressing its association with ubiquitin via inhibition of the E3 ubiquitin ligase (Hrd1). OI also inhibited LPS-induced the reactive oxygen species and inflammatory responses via Hrd1. An estrogen deficiency (via ovariectomy)-induced osteoporosis model was also established. Here, on micro-computed tomography and histologic analysis showed that OI effectively suppressed ovariectomy-induced bone loss. In summary, OI, an itaconate derivative, can inhibit osteoclastogenesis in vitro and in vivo, indicating that OI could be a potential drug to treat osteoclast-related diseases; our results also link itaconate to the development of osteoporosis.-Sun, X., Zhang, B., Pan, X., Huang, H., Xie, Z., Ma, Y., Hu, B., Wang, J., Chen, Z., Shi, P.

Project description:Vitiligo is an acquired skin depigmentation disease in which excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a critical pathogenic role in melanocyte destruction. The complex crosstalk between melanocytes and keratinocytes in vitiligo suggests that treatments aimed at protecting both the cells might be meaningful. In this study, we investigated the effect of 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI), an itaconate derivative, on ultraviolet B- (UVB-) induced apoptosis in HaCaT and PIG1 cells and the underlying mechanisms. HaCaT and PIG1 cells were pretreated with 4-OI (50 or 100 μM) for 24 h and then exposed to 300 mJ/cm2 UVB (emission range 290-320 nm, emission peak 310 nm). ROS levels and cell apoptosis were investigated using fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry 24 h after irradiation. In addition, nuclear translocation and the expression of pathway-related proteins and mRNAs were detected using confocal microscopy, western blotting, and qRT-PCR, respectively. Our results demonstrated that UVB induced apoptosis in HaCaT and PIG1 cells, whereas inhibition of ROS production could reverse this effect. Furthermore, 4-OI attenuated UVB-induced apoptosis in HaCaT and PIG1 cells in a concentration-dependent manner by reducing the ROS levels. Moreover, 4-OI induced nuclear translocation and activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), and Nrf2 silencing reversed the inhibitory effect of 4-OI on the UVB-induced increase in ROS production and apoptosis in HaCaT and PIG1 cells. In addition, in vivo experiments using the Institute of Cancer Research mouse model showed that 4-OI via tail vein injection (10 mg/kg/day for six consecutive days) could reduce skin damage induced by UVB (400 mJ/cm2/day for five consecutive days). In conclusion, 4-OI can protect melanocytes and keratinocytes from UVB-induced apoptosis by Nrf2 activation-dependent ROS inhibition and can potentially treat skin disorders associated with oxidative stress, such as vitiligo.
