Pisidium coreanum Inhibits Multinucleated Osteoclast Formation and Prevents Estrogen-Deficient Osteoporosis.

ABSTRACT: Mollusks have served as important sources of human food and medicine for a long time. Raw Pisidium coreanum, a freshwater bivalve of the phylum Mollusca, is used in traditional therapies in parts of Asia. However, the therapeutic effects of Pisidium coreanum on bone diseases are not known. We investigated the functional roles of Pisidium coreanum in osteoporotic bone diseases. Pisidium coreanum inhibited the differentiation of bone marrow-derived monocytic cells into mature osteoclasts in vitro. The ovariectomized mice that received oral administration of Pisidium coreanum showed improvements in both trabecular and cortical bones. This preventive activity of Pisidium coreanum against bone loss was due to limited osteoclast maturation with reduced osteoclast surface extent in trabecular bone tissue. The formation of large multinucleated osteoclasts in vitro was significantly decreased in response to Pisidium coreanum, consistent with the reduced expression levels of osteoclast markers and fusion-related genes, such as NFATc1, p65, integrin ?v?3, DC-STAMP, OC-STAMP, Atp6v0d2, FAK, CD44, and MFR. These data suggest that Pisidium coreanum inhibits osteoclast differentiation by negatively regulating the fusion of mononuclear osteoclast precursors. Thus, our data demonstrate the ability of Pisidium coreanum to effectively prevent estrogen-deficient osteoporosis through inhibition of multinucleated osteoclast formation.

Project description:Adenosine is generated in increased concentrations at sites of injury/hypoxia and mediates a variety of physiological and pharmacological effects via G protein-coupled receptors (A(1), A(2A), A(2B), and A(3)). Because all adenosine receptors are expressed on osteoclasts, we determined the role of A(2A) receptor in the regulation of osteoclast differentiation. Differentiation and bone resorption were studied as the macrophage colony-stimulating factor-1-receptor activator of NF-κB ligand formation of multinucleated tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive cells from primary murine bone marrow-derived precursors. A(2A) receptor and osteoclast marker expression levels were studied by RT-PCR. Cytokine secretion was assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In vivo examination of A(2A) knockout (KO)/control bones was determined by TRAP staining, micro-computed tomography, and electron microscopy. The A(2A) receptor agonist, CGS21680, inhibited osteoclast differentiation and function (half maximal inhibitory concentration, 50 nmol/L), increased the percentage of immature osteoclast precursors, and decreased IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α secretion, an effect that was reversed by the A(2A) antagonist, ZM241385. Cathepsin K and osteopontin mRNA expression increased in control and ZM241385-pretreated osteoclasts, and this was blocked by CGS21680. Micro-computed tomography of A(2A)KO mouse femurs showed a significantly decreased bone volume/trabecular bone volume ratio, decreased trabecular number, and increased trabecular space. A(2A)KO femurs showed an increased TRAP-positive osteoclast. Electron microscopy in A(2A)KO femurs showed marked osteoclast membrane folding and increased bone resorption. Thus, adenosine, acting via the A(2A) receptor, inhibits macrophage colony-stimulating factor-1-receptor activator of NF-κB ligand-stimulated osteoclast differentiation and may regulate bone turnover under conditions in which adenosine levels are elevated.
