Project description:Osteoclasts are absorptive cells and play a critical role in homeostatic bone remodeling and pathological bone resorption. Emerging evidence suggests an important role for epigenetic regulation of osteoclastogenesis. In this study, we investigated the role of DOT1L, which regulates gene expression epigenetically by histone H3K79 methylation during osteoclast formation. DOT1L and H3K79me2 levels were upregulated during osteoclast differentiation. Small molecule inhibitor- (EPZ5676 or EPZ004777) or short hairpin RNA-mediated reduction in DOT1L expression promoted osteoclast differentiation and resorption. DOT1L inhibition also increased osteoclast area and accelerated bone mass reduction in a mouse ovariectomy (OVX) model of osteoporosis. DOT1L inhibitors did not alter osteoblast differentiation in vitro and in vivo. Proteomics data, together with bioinformatics analysis, revealed that DOT1L inhibition altered reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, autophagy activation, and cell fusion-related protein expression. ROS generation increased, and autophagy activation and cell migration ability enhancement were verified subsequently by flow cytometry and transwell migration assays. DOT1L inhibition increased NFATc1 nuclear translocation and NF-κB activation and strengthend osteoclast fusion and expression of resorption-related protein CD9, and MMP9 in osteoclasts derived from RAW264.7. Our findings support a new mechanism of DOT1L-mediated H3K79me2 epigenetic regulation of osteoclast differentiation, implicating DOT1L as a new therapeutic target for osteoclast dysregulation-induced disease.

Project description:Bone remodeling is characterized by the sequential, local tethering of osteoclasts and osteoblasts, and is key to the maintenance of bone integrity. While bone matrix-mobilized growth factors, such as TGF-β, are proposed to regulate remodeling, no in vivo evidence exists that an osteoclast-produced molecule is the enigmatic coupling factor. We have identified Cthrc1, a protein secreted by mature bone-resorbing osteoclasts, that targets stromal cells so as to stimulate osteogenesis. The expression of Cthrc1 is robustly induced when mature osteoclasts are placed on dentin or hydroxyapatite, and also by increasing extracellular calcium. Cthrc1 expression in bone increases in a high turnover state, such as that which is induced by RANKL injections in vivo, whereas it decreases with aging or following alendronate treatment, conditions associated with suppressed bone turnover. The targeted deletion of the Cthrc1 gene eliminates Cthrc1 expression in bone, whereas its deficiency in osteoblasts does not exert any significant effect. Osteoclast-specific deletion of the Cthrc1 gene results in osteopenia due to reduced bone formation: it also impairs the coupling process following resorption induced by RANKL injections, with a resultant impairment of bone mass recovery. Thus, Cthrc1 is an osteoclast-secreted “coupling factor” that regulates bone remodeling and hence, skeletal integrity. Total bone marrow cells were prepared from the femurs and tibias of 8-10-week-old C57BL/6 mice and cultured in the presence of M-CSF (100ng/ml) for 3 days as described previously (Takeshita et al., 2000 JBMR 15:1477-1488). Cells were harvested with 0.02% EDTA/PBS and used as bone marrow macrophages (BMMs). These BMMs were cultured in the presence of M-CSF (100 ng/ml) and RANKL (100ng/ml) for 2 days. TRAP positive mononuclear cells were harvested and used as pre-osteoclasts (pOC). These pOC cells were further cultured in the presence of M-CSF and RANKL for 2 days in normal plastic plate or on dentin slices. After 2 days, multinucleated TRAP positive mature osteoclasts were generated as mature osteoclasts on plate (mOCp) and mature resorbing osteoclasts on dentin (mOCd), respectively. RNAs were extracted from four different stages of osteoclast lineage cells; BMMs, pOC, mOCp and mOCd, and used for microarray analysis.

Project description:Osteoclasts are multinucleated, bone-resorbing cells. However, they also digest cartilage during skeletal maintenance, development and in degradative conditions including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and primary bone sarcoma. This study explores the mechanisms behind the osteoclast–cartilage interaction. Human osteoclasts differentiated on acellular human cartilage expressed osteoclast marker genes (e.g. CTSK, MMP9) and proteins (TRAP, VNR), visibly damaged the cartilage surface and released glycosaminoglycan in a contact-dependent manner. Direct co-culture with chondrocytes during differentiation increased large osteoclast formation (p < 0.0001) except when co-cultured on dentine, when osteoclast formation was inhibited (p = 0.0002). Osteoclasts cultured on dentine inhibited basal cartilage degradation (p = 0.012). RNA-seq identified MMP8 overexpression in osteoclasts differentiated on cartilage versus dentine (8.89-fold, p = 0.0133), while MMP9 was the most highly expressed MMP. Both MMP8 and MMP9 were produced by osteoclasts in osteosarcoma tissue. This study suggests that bone-resident osteoclasts and chondrocytes exert mutually protective effects on their ‘native’ tissue. However, when osteoclasts contact non-native cartilage they cause degradation via MMPs. Understanding the role of osteoclasts in cartilage maintenance and degradation might identify new therapeutic approaches for pathologies characterized by cartilage degeneration.

Project description:Osteoclasts are derived from the monocyte/macrophage lineage, but little is known about osteoclast precursors in circulation. Bone marrow cells were subdivided into three populations; RANKhighFmslow, RANKhighFmshigh and RANKlowFmshigh. GeneChip analysis confirmed that the expression levels of monocyte-macrophage markers such as Emr1 (F4/80), Itgam (CD11b) and Csf1 (c-Fms) were lower in the RANKhighFmslow than RANKlowFmshigh population. In contrast, cells in the RANKhighFmslow population expressed higher levels of osteoclast markers such as Car ll (carbonic anhydrase ll), Mmp9 (matrix metalloproteinase 9), Acp5 (acid phosphatase 5) and Tfrc (transferrin receptor). These results suggest that RANKhighFmslow cells express few of the phenotypes of monocytes, and their differentiation into osteoclasts occurs at a slightly more advanced stage than that of the RANKlowFmshigh population. RANKhighFmslow cells and RANKlowFmshigh cells were isolated from bone marrow in ddY mice by FACS (Fluorescent activated cell sorting). Differential expression levels of mRNA were determined by GeneChip analysis.

Project description:Inducing the PBMCs from SAPHO patients differentiation into osteoclasts while stimulating with serum exosomes. Compared with exosomes from normal volunteer, we found that about 2/3 of patients’ osteoclast differentiation were inhibited in response to exosomes from SAPHO patients. We present a TMT-labeled quantitative proteomics analysis of the osteoclasts which respond differently to different exosomes.

Project description:Enhanced osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast activity contribute to the development of osteoporosis, which is characterized by increased bone resorption and inadequate bone formation. As novel anti-osteoporotic therapeutics are needed, understanding the genetic regulation of human osteoclastogenesis could help identify potential treatment targets. This study aimed to provide an overview of the transcriptional reprogramming during human osteoclast differentiation. Osteoclasts were differentiated from CD14+-monocytes from eight female donors. RNA-sequencing during differentiation demonstrated 8980 differentially expressed genes grouped into eight temporal patterns conserved across donors. These patterns showed distinct molecular functions, associated with postmenopausal osteoporosis susceptibility genes based on RNA from iliac crest biopsies, and bone mineral density SNPs. Network analyses showed mutual dependencies between the temporal expression patterns and provides insight into subtype-specific transcriptional networks. Donor specific expression patterns identified genes at monocyte stage, such as filamin B (FLNB) and oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (OLR1, encoding LOX-1), that are predictive for the resorptive activity of mature osteoclasts. Differentially expressed G-protein coupled receptors showed strong expression during osteoclast differentiation and associated with bone mineral density SNPs, implying a pivotal role in osteoclast differentiation and activity. The regulatory effects of three differentially expressed G-protein coupled receptors were exemplified by in vitro pharmacological modulation of complement 5A receptor 1 (C5AR1), somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2), and free fatty acid receptor 4 (FFAR4/GPR120). Activating C5AR1 enhanced osteoclast formation, while activating SSTR2 decreased resorptive activity of mature osteoclasts, and activating FFAR4 decreased both number and resorptive activity of mature osteoclasts. In conclusion, we report the transcriptional reprogramming during human osteoclast differentiation and identified SSTR2 and FFAR4 as anti-resorptive G-protein coupled receptors as well as FLNB and LOX-1 as potential molecular markers of osteoclast activity. These data can help future investigations to identify molecular regulators of osteoclast differentiation and activity and provide the basis for novel anti-osteoporotic targets.

Project description:Bone remodeling is a tightly regulated process that engages degradation and biogenesis of the bone matrix. The process is controlled by two major cell types, bone forming cells-osteoblasts and bone-degrading cells-osteoclasts. We are interested in the bone-resorption mechanism mediated by osteoclasts and wish to identify glycosylation genes that are regulated during the formation of osteoclast cells and determine the function of glycosylation and glycan-binding proteins in the osteoclastogenesis. We propose to examine the gene expression patterns that are altered during the osteoclastogenesis using mouse glyco-chips and RNA samples isolated from osteoclast precursors and mature osteoclasts prepared from mouse bone marrows. 6 chips are requested for the analysis. RNA preparations from mouse bone marrow MG2, MG4, MG6 (mature osteoclasts) and MG1, MG3, MG5 osteoclasts precursors (control) were sent to the Microarray Core (E). The RNA was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to the GLYCOv3 microarrays.
