STAT3-mediated osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis in osteoporosis

ABSTRACT: Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disease with marked bone loss, deterioration of the bone microstructure and bone fragility. An abnormal bone remodelling cycle with relatively increased bone resorption is the crucial pathophysiological mechanism. Bone remodelling is predominantly controlled by osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which are specialized cell types that are regulated by a variety of osteogenic and osteoclastic factors, including cytokines expressed within the bone microenvironment under local or systemic inflammatory conditions. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) plays a prominent role in the communication between cytokines and kinases by binding downstream gene promotors and is involved in a wide range of biological or pathological processes. Emerging evidence suggests that STAT3 and its network participate in bone remodelling and the development of osteoporosis, and this factor may be a potent target for osteoporosis treatment. This review focuses on the role and molecular mechanism of the STAT3 signalling pathway in osteogenesis, osteoclastogenesis and osteoporosis, particularly the bone-related cytokines that regulate the osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells and the osteoclastic differentiation of bone marrow macrophages by initiating STAT3 signalling. This review also examines the cellular interactions among immune cells, haematopoietic cells and osteoblastic/osteoclastic cells. Video abstract

Icaritin ameliorates RANKL-mediated osteoclastogenesis and ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis.

Project description:A rapidly aging society and longer life expectancy are causing osteoporosis to become a global epidemic. Over the last five decades, a number of drugs aimed at reducing bone resorption or restoring bone mass have been developed, but their efficacy and safety are limited. Icaritin (ICT) is a natural compound extracted from anti-osteoporosis herb Epimedium spp. and has been shown to inhibit osteoclast differentiation. However, the molecular mechanism by which ICT weaken RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation has not been completely investigated. Here, we evaluated the anti-osteoclastogenic effect of ICT in vitro and the potential drug candidate for treating osteoporosis in vivo. In vitro study, ICT was found to inhibit osteoclast formation and bone resorption function via downregulating transcription factors activated T cell cytoplasm 1 (NFATc1) and c-fos, which further downregulate osteoclastogenesis-specific gene. In addition, the enhanced mitochondrial mass and function required for osteoclast differentiation was mitigated by ICT. The histomorphological results from an in vivo study showed that ICT attenuated the bone loss associated with ovariectomy (OVX). Based on these results, we propose ICT as a promising new drug strategy for osteoporosis that inhibits osteoclast differentiation.

DANCR Mediates the Rescuing Effects of Sesamin on Postmenopausal Osteoporosis Treatment via Orchestrating Osteogenesis and Osteoclastogenesis.

Project description:As one of the leading causes of bone fracture in postmenopausal women and in older men, osteoporosis worldwide is attracting more attention in recent decades. Osteoporosis is a common disease mainly resulting from an imbalance of bone formation and bone resorption. Pharmaceutically active compounds that both activate osteogenesis, while repressing osteoclastogenesis hold the potential of being therapeutic medications for osteoporosis treatment. In the present study, sesamin, a bioactive ingredient derived from the seed of Sesamum Indicum, was screened out from a bioactive compound library and shown to exhibit dual-regulating functions on these two processes. Sesamin was demonstrated to promote osteogenesis by upregulating Wnt/β-catenin, while repressing osteoclastogenesis via downregulating NF-κB signaling . Furthermore, DANCR was found to be the key regulator in sesamin-mediated bone formation and resorption . In an ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporotic mouse model, sesamin could rescue OVX-induced bone loss and impairment. The increased serum level of DANCR caused by OVX was also downregulated upon sesamin treatment. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that sesamin plays a dual-functional role in both osteogenesis activation and osteoclastogenesis de-activation in a DANCR-dependent manner, suggesting that it may be a possible medication candidate for osteoporotic patients with elevated DNACR expression levels.

Dual regulation of osteoclastogenesis and osteogenesis for osteoporosis therapy by iron oxide hydroxyapatite core/shell nanocomposites.

Project description:Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder resulted in significant structural and functional changes, arousing a wide concern for the high prevalence and cost. Imbalance between osteoclastogenesis and osteogenesis have been verified as a main pathology etiology and considered an efficient therapy target in both clinical and pre-clinical studies. In recent years, inorganic nanomaterials have shown provable activities on osteoclastogenesis inhibition and osteogenesis promotion, respectively. Hence, in this study, a class of hydroxyapatite coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIO@HA) were developed with a core-shell structure for targeting both osteoclastogenesis and osteogenesis. The optimal ratio of SPIO@15HA (Fe/Ca = 1:15, mol/mol) was screened to obtain dual function for inducing both bone formation and preventing bone resorption. The obtained nanocomposites significantly prevented the bone loss of ovariectomized (OVX) mice and increased bone mineral density (BMD) by 9.4%, exhibiting high bone accumulation in magnetic resonance imaging evaluation and reasonable biosafety profile. The mechanism study revealed that SPIO@15HA can suppress bone marrow monocyte derived osteoclast differentiation through TRAF6-p62-CYLD signaling complex regulation. Meanwhile, it could activate MSC osteogenic differentiation by TGF-β, PI3K-AKT and calcium signaling pathway regulation. Moreover, incubation of SPIO@15HA with MSC resulted in several cytokines overexpression such as osteoprotegerin (OPG), CSF2, CCL2 etc., which are responsible for maintaining the bone remodeling balance. The dual function of as-prepared SPIO@15HA may find a new way for designing of inorganic components containing core/shell nanomaterials for osteoporosis treatment.

Biphasic silica/apatite co-mineralized collagen scaffolds stimulate osteogenesis and inhibit RANKL-mediated osteoclastogenesis.

Project description:The effects of a biphasic mineralized collagen scaffold (BCS) containing intrafibrillar silica and apatite on osteogenesis of mouse mesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs) and inhibition of receptor activator of nuclear factor ?B ligand (RANKL)-mediated osteoclastogenesis were investigated in the present study. mMSCs were cultured by exposing to BCS for 7 days for cell proliferation/viability examination, and stimulated to differentiate in osteogenic medium for 7-21 days for evaluation of alkaline phosphatase activity, secretion of osteogenic deposits and expression of osteoblast lineage-specific phenotypic markers. The effect of BCS-conditioned mMSCs on osteoclastogenesis of RAW 264.7 cells was evaluated by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining and resorption pit analysis. The contributions of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) signal transduction pathways to osteogenesis of mMSCs and their osteoprotegerin (OPG) and RANKL expressions were also evaluated. Compared with unmineralized, intrafibrillarly-silicified or intrafibrillarly-calcified collagen scaffolds, BCS enhanced osteogenic differentiation of mMSCs by activation of the extracellular signal regulated kinases (ERK)/MAPK and p38/MAPK signaling pathways. After mMSCs were exposed to BCS, they up-regulated OPG expression and down-regulated RANKL expression through activation of the p38/MAPK and PI3K/protein kinase B (Akt) pathways, resulting in inhibition of the differentiation of RAW 264.7 cells into multinucleated osteoclasts and reduction in osteoclast function. These observations collectively suggest that BCS has the potential to be used in bone tissue engineering when the demand for anabolic activities is higher than catabolic metabolism during the initial stage of wound rehabilitation.

TRPA1 aggravates osteoclastogenesis and osteoporosis through activating endoplasmic reticulum stress mediated by SRXN1.

Project description:Osteoporosis (OP) is a disorder of bone remodeling caused by an imbalance between bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. Therefore, inhibiting excessive osteoclast activity is one of the promising strategies for treating OP. A major transient receptor potential cation channel, known as transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1), was found to alleviate joint pain and cartilage degeneration in osteoarthritis. However, little research has focused on TRPA1 function in OP. As a result, this study aimed to explore the TRPA1 characteristics and its potential therapeutic function during osteoclastogenesis. The TRPA1 expression gradually increased in the osteoclast differentiation process; however, its suppression with small interfering RNA and an inhibitor (HC030031) significantly controlled the osteoclast count and the expression of osteoclast characteristic genes. Its suppression also inhibited endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-related pancreatic ER kinase (PERK) pathways. An ER stress inhibitor (thapsigargin) reversed the down-regulated levels of ER stress and osteoclast differentiation by suppressing TRPA1. Transcriptome sequencing results demonstrated that TRPA1 negatively regulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and significantly increased the expression of an antioxidant gene, SRXN1. The osteoclast differentiation and the levels of ER stress were enhanced with SRXN1 inhibition. Finally, TRPA1 knockdown targeting macrophages by adeno-associated virus-9 could relieve osteoclast differentiation and osteopenia in ovariectomized mice. In summary, silencing TRPA1 restrained osteoclast differentiation through ROS-mediated down-regulation of ER stress via inhibiting PERK pathways. The study also indicated that TRPA1 might become a prospective treatment target for OP.

Combinatorial Surface Roughness Effects on Osteoclastogenesis and Osteogenesis.

Project description:Implant surface properties are a key factor in bone responses to metallic bone implants. In view of the emerging evidence on the important role of osteoclasts in bone regeneration, we here studied how surface roughness affects osteoclastic differentiation and to what extent these osteoclasts have stimulatory effects on osteogenic differentiation of osteoprogenitor cells. For this, we induced osteoclasts derived from RAW264.7 cell line and primary mouse macrophages on titanium surfaces with different roughness ( Ra 0.02-3.63 μm) and analyzed osteoclast behavior in terms of cell number, morphology, differentiation, and further anabolic effect on osteoblastic cells. Surfaces with different roughness induced the formation of osteoclasts with distinct phenotypes, based on total osteoclast numbers, morphology, size, cytoskeletal organization, nuclearity, and osteoclastic features. Furthermore, these different osteoclast phenotypes displayed differential anabolic effects toward the osteogenic differentiation of osteoblastic cells, for which the clastokine CTHRC1 was identified as a causative factor. Morphologically, osteoclast potency to stimulate osteogenic differentiation of osteoblastic cells was found to logarithmically correlate with the nuclei number per osteoclast. Our results demonstrate the existence of a combinatorial effect of surface roughness, osteoclastogenesis, and osteogenic differentiation. These insights open up a new dimension for designing and producing metallic implants by considering the implant roughness to locally regulate osseointegration through coupling osteoclastogenesis with osteogenesis.

Oxymatrine Attenuates Osteoclastogenesis via Modulation of ROS-Mediated SREBP2 Signaling and Counteracts Ovariectomy-Induced Osteoporosis.

Project description:Osteoporosis, mainly caused by osteoclast-induced bone resorption, has become a major health problem in post-menopausal women and the elderly. Growing evidence indicates that inhibiting osteoclastogenesis is an efficient approach to develop alternative therapeutic agents for treating osteoporosis. In this study, we identified the potential regulating role of Oxymatrine (OMT), a quinazine alkaloid extracted from Sophora flavescens with various therapeutic effects in many diseases, on osteoclastogenesis for the first time. We found that OMT attenuated RANKL-induced osteoclast formation in both time- and dose-dependent manners. Further, OMT significantly suppressed RANKL-induced sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2) activation and the expression of the nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFATc1). Moreover, OMT inhibited the generation of RANKL-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the upregulation of ROS could rescue the inhibition of SREBP2 by OMT. More importantly, ovariectomy (OVX) mouse model showed that OMT could effectively improve ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteopenia by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis in vivo. In conclusion, our data demonstrated that OMT impaired ROS mediated SREBP2 activity and downstream NFATc1 expression during osteoclastogenesis, suppressed OVX-induced osteopenia in vivo, which suggested that OMT could be a promising compound for medical treatment against osteoporosis.

The Effect of Sclerostin and Monoclonal Sclerostin Antibody Romosozumab on Osteogenesis and Osteoclastogenesis Mediated by Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts.

Project description:Sclerostin is a bone formation inhibitor produced by osteocytes. Although sclerostin is mainly expressed in osteocytes, it was also reported in periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts, which are cells that play a role in both osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. Here, we assess the role of sclerostin and its clinically used inhibitor, romosozumab, in both processes. For osteogenesis assays, human PDL fibroblasts were cultured under control or mineralizing conditions with increasing concentrations of sclerostin or romosozumab. For analyzing osteogenic capacity and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, alizarin red staining for mineral deposition and qPCR of osteogenic markers were performed. Osteoclast formation was investigated in the presence of sclerostin or romosozumab and, in PDLs, in the presence of fibroblasts co-cultured with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). PDL-PBMC co-cultures stimulated with sclerostin did not affect osteoclast formation. In contrast, the addition of romosozumab slightly reduced the osteoclast formation in PDL-PBMC co-cultures at high concentrations. Neither sclerostin nor romosozumab affected the osteogenic capacity of PDL fibroblasts. qPCR analysis showed that the mineralization medium upregulated the relative expression of osteogenic markers, but this expression was barely affected when romosozumab was added to the cultures. In order to account for the limited effects of sclerostin or romosozumab, we finally compared the expression of SOST and its receptors LRP-4, -5, and -6 to the expression in osteocyte rich-bone. The expression of SOST, LRP-4, and LRP-5 was higher in osteocytes compared to in PDL cells. The limited interaction of sclerostin or romosozumab with PDL fibroblasts may relate to the primary biological function of the periodontal ligament: to primarily resist bone formation and bone degradation to the benefit of an intact ligament that is indented by every chew movement.

Nanovibrational stimulation inhibits osteoclastogenesis and enhances osteogenesis in co-cultures.

Project description:Models of bone remodelling could be useful in drug discovery, particularly if the model is one that replicates bone regeneration with reduction in osteoclast activity. Here we use nanovibrational stimulation to achieve this in a 3D co-culture of primary human osteoprogenitor and osteoclast progenitor cells. We show that 1000 Hz frequency, 40 nm amplitude vibration reduces osteoclast formation and activity in human mononuclear CD14+ blood cells. Additionally, this nanoscale vibration both enhances osteogenesis and reduces osteoclastogenesis in a co-culture of primary human bone marrow stromal cells and bone marrow hematopoietic cells. Further, we use metabolomics to identify Akt (protein kinase C) as a potential mediator. Akt is known to be involved in bone differentiation via transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) and it has been implicated in reduced osteoclast activity via Guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit α13 (Gα13). With further validation, our nanovibrational bioreactor could be used to help provide humanised 3D models for drug screening.

Asiatic Acid Inhibits OVX-Induced Osteoporosis and Osteoclastogenesis Via Regulating RANKL-Mediated NF-?b and Nfatc1 Signaling Pathways.

Project description:Asiatic acid is a triterpenoid compound extracted from a medicinal plant Centella asiatica. It has been used as a highly efficient compound for the treatment of cancer and hyperlipidemia, as well as possessing potential antiinflammatory properties. However, its effects on bone metabolism and osteoporosis haven't been reported. The purpose of our research were to reveal the biomolecular effects of asiatic acid on osteoclasts, and its underlying molecular mechanisms regulating its effects on receptor activator of NF-?B ligand (RANKL)-induced signaling pathways. We found that asiatic acid inhibited multinucleated tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAcP)-positive osteoclast differentiation and osteoclast induced bone loss. Real time PCR showed that asiatic acid reduced the expression of down-cascade target genes including Ctsk, Nfatc1, Calcr, and Atp6v0d2. Western blot and luciferase reporter gene assays revealed that asiatic acid inhibits RANKL mediated NF-?B and NFATc1 signalings. Further, in vivo study demonstrated asiatic acid attenuates estrogen deficiency-induced bone loss in ovariectomized mice. MicroCT and histology analyses revealed that osteoclast numbers were significantly suppressed in asiatic acid treated groups. Furthermore, serum levels of TRAcP and CTX-1 were downregulated in treated groups. Taken together, our data show that asiatic acid can inhibit osteoclastic formation and reduce OVX-induced bone resorption through RANKL-activated NF-?B or NFATc1 signaling, suggesting that asiatic acid may be a potential and effective natural compound for the therapy of excessive RANKL-related osteolytic diseases.
