Introduction

Increased activity of osteoclasts is responsible for bone loss and joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis. For osteoclast development and bone resorption activity, cytoskeletal organization must be properly regulated. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small noncoding RNAs that suppress expression of their target genes. This study was conducted to identify crucial miRNAs to control osteoclasts.

Methods

miRNA expression in the bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM) with or without receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) stimulation was analyzed by miRNA array. To examine the role of specific miRNAs in osteoclast formation, bone resorption activity and actin ring formation, the BMM were retrovirally transduced with miRNA antagomirs. To confirm whether the suppressive effects on osteoclastogenesis by miR-31 inhibition were mediated by targeting RhoA, osteoclast formation was analyzed in the presence of the RhoA inhibitor, exoenzyme C3.

Results

miR-31 was identified as one of the highly upregulated miRNAs during osteoclast development under RANKL stimulation. Inhibition of miR-31 by specific antagomirs suppressed the RANKL-induced formation of osteoclasts and bone resorption. Phalloidin staining of osteoclasts revealed that actin ring formation at the cell periphery was severely impaired by miR-31 inhibition, and clusters of small ringed podosomes were observed instead. In these osteoclasts, expression of RhoA, one of the miR-31 target genes, was upregulated by miR-31 inhibition in spite of the impaired osteoclastogenesis. Treatment with the RhoA inhibitor, exoenzyme C3, rescued the osteoclastogenesis impaired by miR-31 inhibition.

Conclusions

miR-31 controls cytoskeleton organization in osteoclasts for optimal bone resorption activity by regulating the expression of RhoA.  相似文献

microRNAs(miRNAs)是一类具有组织或发育阶段特异性的小分子、非编码单链RNA,通过转录后与靶基因特定序列结合来发挥其调控作用. 作为骨中的最重要的两种重要细胞--成骨细胞和破骨细胞,其代谢平衡与骨形成密切相关.研究发现,miRNAs在调节成骨细胞和破骨细胞分化及功能发挥上具有重要作用,并且运动训练可通过调节miRNAs进而调控骨细胞分化. 一般来说,适宜强度运动训练可上调某些miRNAs表达来促进成骨细胞或破骨细胞分化及功能;当失重或过量运动时,则会产生抑制作用. 本文就miRNAs调控干细胞向成骨细胞和破骨细胞分化及功能发挥的分子生物学机制以及运动训练调节与骨代谢相关miRNAs表达的研究进展进行综述.  相似文献

Bisphosphonates (BPs) are inhibitors of bone resorption and soft tissue calcification. The biological effects of the BPs in calcium-related disorders are attributed mainly to their incorporation in bone, enabling direct interaction with osteoclasts and/or osteoblasts through a variety of biochemical pathways. Structural differences account for the considerable differences in the pharmacological activity of BPs. We compared the effects of two structurally different compounds, alendronate and 2-(3′-dimethylaminopyrazinio)ethylidene-1,1-bisphosphonic acid betaine (VS-6), in an osteoprogenitor differentiation system. The BPs were examined in a bone marrow stromal-cell culture system, which normally results in osteoprogenitor differentiation. The drugs were present in the cultures from days 2 to 11 of osteogenic stimulation, a period estimated as being comparable to the end of proliferation and the matrix-maturation stages. We found that the two different BPs have opposing effects on specific alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, on stromal-cell proliferation, and on cell-mediated mineralization. These BPs differentially interact with cell-associated phosphohydrolysis, particularly at a concentration of 10−2 of ALP Km, in which alendronate inhibits whereas VS-6 did not inhibit phosphatase activity. VS-6 treatment resulted in similar and significantly increased mineralization at 10 and 1 μM drug concentrations, respectively. In contrast, mineralization was similar to control, and significantly decreased at 10 and 1 μM drug concentrations, respectively, under alendronate treatment. J. Cell.

Icariin, a principal flavonoid glycoside in Herba Epimedii, is hypothesized to possess beneficial effects on bone mass. Icariin is metabolized to icariside II and then to icaritin in vivo. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effects of icariin, icariside II and icaritin on both osteoblasts and osteoclasts. After treatment with these compounds at concentrations 10(-5)-10(-8) mol/l, osteoblasts were examined for proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity, osteocalcin secretion and matrix mineralization, as well as expression levels of bone-related proteins. The formation of osteoclasts was assessed by counting the number of multinucleated TRAP-positive cells. The activity of isolated rat osteoclasts was evaluated by measuring pit area, actin rings and superoxide generation. Icariside II and icaritin increased the mRNA expression of ALP, OC, COL-1 and OPG, but suppressed that of RANKL. In addition, these compounds reduced the number of multinucleated TRAP-positive cells and the osteoclastic resorption area. Also decreases were observed in superoxide generation and actin ring formation that are required for osteoclast survival and bone resorption activity. These findings suggest that icaritin, which was more potent than icariin and icariside II, enhanced the differentiation and proliferation of osteoblasts, and facilitated matrix calcification; meanwhile it inhibited osteoclastic differentiation in both osteoblast-preosteoclast coculture and osteoclast progenitor cell culture, and reduced the motility and bone resorption activity of isolated osteoclasts.  相似文献

Osteoporosis is a metabolic disease that results from oxidative stress or inflammation in renal disorders. microRNAs (miRNAs) are recently implicated to participate in osteoporosis, but the mechanism remains largely unexplored. Herein, we aimed to explore the potential role of miR-15b in osteoblast differentiation and autophagy in osteoporosis. We established osteoporosis models through ovariectomy and determined that miR-15b was highly expressed whereas USP7 and KDM6B were poorly expressed in tissue of osteoporosis mice. Treatment of silenced miR-15b resulted in the elevation of decreased bone mineral density (BMD), the maximum elastic stress and the maximum load of osteoporosis mice. In osteoblasts, miR-15 overexpression decreased proliferation but suppressed the cell differentiation and autophagy, accompanied with decreased expression of USP7. Mechanistically, miR-15 bound and inhibited USP7 expression, while overexpression of USP7 promoted autophagy of osteoblasts. USP7, importantly, strengthened the stability of KDM6B and promoted KDM6B expression. MG132 protease inhibitor increased KDM6B and USP7 expression in osteoblasts. Silencing of KDM6B reversed the promoting effect on autophagy and proliferation induced by overexpression of USP7. Taken altogether, miR-15b inhibits osteoblast differentiation and autophagy to aggravate osteoporosis by targeting USP7 to regulate KDM6B expression.  相似文献

We evaluated the role of CCL20 (MIP-3alpha) chemokine in cells directly involved in the remodeling of bone tissue (osteoblasts and osteoclasts) and we confirmed its expression in the subchondral bone tissue of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. The expression of CCL20 and of its receptor CCR6 was evaluated in osteoblasts isolated from bone tissue of post-traumatic (PT) patients. Functional tests were performed to evaluate osteoblast proliferation and matrix protein modulation. Immunohistochemical analysis for CCR6, CCL20, and RANKL was performed on bone samples from RA patients. The role of CCL20 was then analyzed in osteoclast differentiation. We found that in basal conditions CCR6, but not its ligand CCL20, was highly expressed by osteoblasts. Functional analysis on osteoblasts showed that CCL20 significantly increased cellular proliferation but did not affect matrix protein expression. Pro-inflammatory cytokines significantly induced the release of CCL20 and RANKL by human osteoblasts but did not modulate CCR6 expression. Increased expression of CCR6, CCL20, and RANKL was confirmed in RA subchondral bone tissue biopsies. We demonstrated that CCL20 was also an earlier inducer of osteoclast differentiation by increasing the number of pre-osteoclasts, thus favoring cell fusion and MMP-9 release. Our results add new insight to the important role of the CCL20/CCR6, RANKL system in the bone tissue of RA. The contemporary action of CCL20 on osteoblasts and osteoclasts involved in the maintenance of bone tissue homeostasis demonstrates the important role of this compartment in the evolution of RA, by showing a clear uncoupling between new bone formation and bone resorption.  相似文献

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are pattern recognition receptors that play a critical role in innate immune diseases. TLR3, which is localized in the endosomal compartments of hematopoietic immune cells, is able to recognize double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) derived from viruses and bacteria and thereby induce innate immune responses. Inflammatory periodontal bone resorption is caused by bacterial infections, which initially is regulated by innate immunity; however, the roles of TLR3 signaling in bone resorption are still not known. We examined the roles of TLR3 signaling in bone resorption using poly(I:C), a synthetic dsRNA analog. In cocultures of mouse bone marrow cells and stromal osteoblasts, poly(I:C) clearly induced osteoclast differentiation. In osteoblasts, poly(I:C) increased PGE2 production and upregulated the mRNA expression of PGE2-related genes, Ptgs2 and Ptges, as well as that of a gene related to osteoclast differentiation, Tnfsf11. In addition, we found that indomethacin (a COX-2 inhibitor) or an antagonist of the PGE2 receptor EP4 attenuated the poly(I:C)-induced PGE2 production and subsequent Tnfsf11 expression. Poly(I:C) also prolonged the survival of the mature osteoclasts associated with the increased mRNA expression of osteoclast marker genes, Nfatc1 and Ctsk. In ex vivo organ cultures of periodontal alveolar bone, poly(I:C) induced bone-resorbing activity in a dose-dependent manner, which was attenuated by the simultaneous administration of either indomethacin or an EP4 antagonist. These data suggest that TLR3 signaling in osteoblasts controls PGE2 production and induces the subsequent differentiation and survival of mature osteoclasts. Endogenous TLR3 in stromal osteoblasts and osteoclasts synergistically induces inflammatory alveolar bone resorption in periodontitis.  相似文献

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) induces osteoclast formation and activity by increasing the ratio of RANKL/OPG in osteoblasts. The proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib (CFZ) has been used as an effective therapy for multiple myeloma via the inhibition of pathologic bone destruction. However, the effect of combination of PTH and CFZ on osteoclastogenesis is unknown. We now report that CFZ inhibits PTH-induced RANKL expression and secretion without affecting PTH inhibition of OPG expression, and it does so by blocking HDAC4 proteasomal degradation in osteoblasts. Furthermore, we used different types of culture systems, including co-culture, indirect co-culture, and transactivation, to assess the effect of CFZ on PTH action to induce osteoclastogenesis. Our results demonstrated that CFZ blocks PTH-induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption by its additional effect to inhibit RANKL-mediated IκB degradation and NF-κB activation in osteoclasts. This study showed for the first time that CFZ targets both osteoblasts and osteoclasts to suppress PTH-induced osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption. These findings warrant further investigation of this novel combination in animal models of osteoporosis and in patients.  相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) serve as gene silencers involved in essential cell functions. The role of miR-206 and E74-like factor 3 (Elf3) has been identified in osteoarthritis (OA), while the effect of exosomal miR-206 from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in OA remains largely unknown. Thus, we aim to explore the role of exosomal miR-206 from BMSCs in OA with the involvement of Elf3. BMSCs and BMSC-derived exosomes (BMSC-exos) were obtained and identified. OA mouse models were constructed by anterior cruciate ligament transection and then treated with BMSC-exos or BMSC-exos containing miR-206 mimic/inhibitor. The expression of miR-206, Elf3, inflammatory factors, osteocalcin (OCN) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) in mouse femoral tissues was assessed. The pathological changes in mouse femur tissues were observed. The mouse osteoblasts were identified and treated with untransfected or transfected BMSC-exos, and then, the expression of miR-206, Elf3, OCN and BMP2 was determined. The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, calcium deposition level, OCN secretion, proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in osteoblasts were measured. MiR-206 was down-regulated while Elf3 was up-regulated in OA animal and cellular models. Exosomal miR-206 ameliorated inflammation and increased expression of OCN and BMP2 in mouse femoral tissues. Moreover, exosomal miR-206 promoted ALP activity, calcium deposition level, OCN secretion and proliferation and inhibited apoptosis in OA osteoblasts. Overexpressed Elf3 reversed miR-206 up-regulation-induced effects on OA osteoblasts. BMSC-derived exosomal miR-206 promotes proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts in OA by reducing Elf3. Our research may provide novel targets for OA treatment.  相似文献

Recent studies have proposed a role for serotonin and its transporter in regulation of bone cell function. In the present study, we examined the in vitro effects of serotonin and the serotonin transporter inhibitor fluoxetine "Prozac" on osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Human mononuclear cells were differentiated into osteoclasts in the presence of serotonin or fluoxetine. Both compounds affected the total number of differentiated osteoclasts as well as bone resorption in a bell-shaped manner. RT-PCR on the human osteoclasts demonstrated several serotonin receptors, the serotonin transporter, and the rate-limiting enzyme in serotonin synthesis, tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (Tph1). Tph1 expression was also found in murine osteoblasts and osteoclasts, indicating an ability to produce serotonin. In murine pre-osteoclasts (RAW264.7), serotonin as well as fluoxetine affected proliferation and NFkappaB activity in a biphasic manner. Proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and primary osteoblasts (NHO), and 5-HT2A receptor expression was enhanced by serotonin. Fluoxetine stimulated proliferation of MSC and murine preosteoblasts (MC3T3-E1) in nM concentrations, microM concentrations were inhibitory. The effect of fluoxetine seemed direct, probably through 5-HT2 receptors. Serotonin-induced proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells was inhibited by the PKC inhibitor (GF109203) and was also markedly reduced when antagonists of the serotonin receptors 5-HT2B/C or 5-HT2A/C were added. Serotonin increased osteoprotegerin (OPG) and decreased receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL) secretion from osteoblasts, suggesting a role in osteoblast-induced inhibition of osteoclast differentiation, whereas fluoxetine had the opposite effect. This study further describes possible mechanisms by which serotonin and the serotonin transporter can affect bone cell function.  相似文献

Inhibition of osteoclasts formation and bone resorption by estrogen is very important in the etiology of postmenopausal osteoporosis. The mechanisms of this process are still not fully understood. Recent studies implicated an important role of microRNAs in estrogen-mediated responses in various cellular processes, including cell differentiation and proliferation. Thus, we hypothesized that these regulatory molecules might be implicated in the process of estrogen-decreased osteoclasts formation and bone resorption. Western blot, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining, pit formation assay and luciferase assay were used to investigate the role of microRNAs in estrogen-inhibited osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption. We found that estrogen could directly suppress receptor activator of nuclear factor B ligand/macrophage colony-stimulating factor-induced differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages into osteoclasts in the absence of stromal cell. MicroRNA-27a was significantly increased during the process of estrogen-decreased osteoclast differentiation. Overexpressing of microRNA-27a remarkably enhanced the inhibitory effect of estrogen on osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption, whereas which were alleviated by microRNA-27a depletion. Mechanistic studies showed that microRNA-27a inhibited peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) expression in osteoclasts through a microRNA-27a binding site within the 3′-untranslational region of PPARγ and APC. PPARγ and APC respectively contributed to microRNA-27a-decreased osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption. Taken together, these results showed that microRNA-27a may play a significant role in the process of estrogen-inhibited osteoclast differentiation and function.  相似文献

Essential role of beta-catenin in postnatal bone acquisition   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Mutations in the Wnt co-receptor LRP5 alter bone mass in humans, but the mechanisms responsible for Wnts actions in bone are unclear. To investigate the role of the classical Wnt signaling pathway in osteogenesis, we generated mice lacking the beta-catenin or adenomatous polyposis coli (Apc) genes in osteoblasts. Loss of beta-catenin produced severe osteopenia with striking increases in osteoclasts, whereas constitutive activation of beta-catenin in the conditional Apc mutants resulted in dramatically increased bone deposition and a disappearance of osteoclasts. In vitro, osteoblasts lacking the beta-catenin gene exhibited impaired maturation and mineralization with elevated expression of the osteoclast differentiation factor, receptor activated by nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL), and diminished expression of the RANKL decoy receptor, osteoprotegerin. By contrast, Apc-deficient osteoblasts matured normally but demonstrated decreased expression of RANKL and increased osteoprotegerin. These findings suggest that Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in osteoblasts coordinates postnatal bone acquisition by controlling the differentiation and activity of both osteoblasts and osteoclasts.  相似文献

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote tumorigenesis, growth, invasion and metastasis of cancer, whereas normal fibroblasts (NFs) are thought to suppress tumor progression. Little is known about miRNAs expression differences between CAFs and NFs or the patient-to-patient variability in miRNAs expression in breast cancer. We established primary cultures of CAFs and paired NFs from six resected breast tumor tissues that had not previously received radiotherapy or chemotherapy treatment and analyzed with miRNAs microarrays. The array data were analyzed using paired SAM t-test and filtered according to α and q values. Pathway analysis was conducted using DAVID v6.7. We identified 11 dysregulated miRNAs in CAFs: three were up-regulated (miR-221-5p, miR-31-3p, miR-221-3p), while eight were down-regulated (miR-205, miR-200b, miR-200c, miR-141, miR-101, miR-342-3p, let-7g, miR-26b). Their target genes are known to affect cell differentiation, adhesion, migration, proliferation, secretion and cell-cell interaction. By our knowledge it is firstly identify the expression profiles of miRNAs between CAFs and NFs and revealed their regulation on the associated signaling pathways.  相似文献
