Eun SY, Do Park G, Cheon YH, Lee MS, Cho HJ, Kim JY. Inhibition of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand-mediated osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption by Gryllus bimaculatus extract: An in vitro study. J Cell Biochem 2024; 125:e30518. [PMID: 38224182 DOI: 10.1002/jcb.30518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
Excessive bone-resorbing osteoclast activity during bone remodeling is a major feature of bone diseases, such as osteoporosis. Therefore, the inhibition of osteoclast formation and bone resorption can be an effective therapeutic target for various bone diseases. Gryllus biomaculatus (GB) has recently been approved as an alternative food source because of its high nutritional value and environmental sustainability. Traditionally, GB has been known to have various pharmacological properties, including antipyretic and blood pressure-lowering activity, and it has recently been reported to have various biological activities, including protective effects against inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin resistance, and alcohol-induced liver injury. However, the effect of GB on osteoclast differentiation and bone metabolism has not yet been demonstrated. In this study, we confirmed the inhibitory effect of GB extract (GBE) on the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation. To determine the effect of GBE on RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and function, we performed TRAP and F-actin staining, as well as a bone-resorbing assay. The intracellular mechanisms of GBE responsible for the regulation of osteoclastogenesis were revealed by Western blot analysis and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. We investigated the relationship between GBE and expression of osteoclast-specific molecules to further elucidate the underlying mechanisms. It was found that GBE significantly suppressed osteoclastogenesis by decreasing the phosphorylation of Akt, p38, JNK, and ERK, as well as Btk-PLCγ2 signaling, in pathways involved in early osteoclastogenesis as well as through the subsequent suppression of c-Fos, NFATc1, and osteoclastogenesis-specific marker genes. Additionally, GBE inhibited the formation of F-actin ring-positive osteoclasts and bone resorption activity of mature osteoclasts. Our findings suggest that GBE is a potential functional food and therapeutic candidate for bone diseases involving osteoclasts.

Biochem Pharmacol 2023; 218:115895. [PMID: 38084677 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115895] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023]
Abstract
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) play an essential role in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis mainly characterized by excessive osteoclasts (OCs) activity. OCs are rich in mitochondria for energy support, which is a major source of total ROS. Tussilagone (TSG), a natural Sesquiterpenes from the flower of Tussilago farfara, has plentiful beneficial pharmacological characteristics with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activity, but its effects and mechanism in osteopathology are still unclear. In our study, we investigated the regulation of ROS generated from the mitochondria in OCs. We found that TSG inhibited OCs differentiation and bone resorption without any cytotoxicity. Mechanistically, TSG reduced RANKL-mediated total ROS level by down-regulating intracellular ROS production and mitochondrial function, leading to the suppression of NFATc1 transcription. We also found that nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) could enhance ROS scavenging enzymes in response to RANKL-induced oxidative stress. Furthermore, TSG up-regulated the expression of Nrf2 by inhibiting its proteosomal degradation. Interestingly, Nrf2 deficiency reversed the suppressive effect of TSG on mitochondrial activity and ROS signaling in OCs. Consistent with this finding, TSG attenuated post-ovariectomy (OVX)- and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced bone loss by ameliorating osteoclastogenesis. Taken together, TSG has an anti-bone resorptive effect by modulating mitochondrial function and ROS production involved Nrf2 activation.

Abstract
The cell membrane structure is closely related to the occurrence and progression of many metabolic bone diseases observed in the clinic and is an important target to the development of therapeutic strategies for these diseases. Strong experimental evidence supports the existence of membrane microdomains in osteoclasts (OCs). However, the potential membrane microdomains and the crucial mechanisms underlying their roles in OCs have not been fully characterized. Membrane microdomain components, such as scaffolding proteins and the actin cytoskeleton, as well as the roles of individual membrane proteins, need to be elucidated. In this review, we discuss the compositions and critical functions of membrane microdomains that determine the biological behavior of OCs through the three main stages of the OC life cycle.

Glia maturation factor beta deficiency protects against diabetic osteoporosis by suppressing osteoclast hyperactivity. Exp Mol Med 2023:10.1038/s12276-023-00980-8. [PMID: 37121966 DOI: 10.1038/s12276-023-00980-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2022] [Revised: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Excessive osteoclast activation, which depends on dramatic changes in actin dynamics, causes osteoporosis (OP). The molecular mechanism of osteoclast activation in OP related to type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains unclear. Glia maturation factor beta (GMFB) is considered a growth and differentiation factor for both glia and neurons. Here, we demonstrated that Gmfb deficiency effectively ameliorated the phenotype of T1D-OP in rats by inhibiting osteoclast hyperactivity. In vitro assays showed that GMFB participated in osteoclast activation rather than proliferation. Gmfb deficiency did not affect osteoclast sealing zone (SZ) formation but effectively decreased the SZ area by decreasing actin depolymerization. When GMFB was overexpressed in Gmfb-deficient osteoclasts, the size of the SZ area was enlarged in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, decreased actin depolymerization led to a decrease in nuclear G-actin, which activated MKL1/SRF-dependent gene transcription. We found that pro-osteoclastogenic factors (Mmp9 and Mmp14) were downregulated, while anti-osteoclastogenic factors (Cftr and Fhl2) were upregulated in Gmfb KO osteoclasts. A GMFB inhibitor, DS-30, targeting the binding site of GMFB and Arp2/3, was obtained. Biocore analysis revealed a high affinity between DS-30 and GMFB in a dose-dependent manner. As expected, DS-30 strongly suppressed osteoclast hyperactivity in vivo and in vitro. In conclusion, our work identified a new therapeutic strategy for T1D-OP treatment. The discovery of GMFB inhibitors will contribute to translational research on T1D-OP.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effect of EMF exposure on the regulation of RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation in Raw 264.7 cells. In the EMF-exposed group, the cell volume did not increase despite RANKL treatment, and the expression levels of Caspase-3 remained much lower than those in the RANKL-treated group. TRAP and F-actin staining revealed smaller actin rings in cells exposed to EMF during RANKL-induced differentiation, indicating that EMF inhibited osteoclast differentiation. EMF-irradiated cells exhibited reduced mRNA levels of osteoclastic differentiation markers cathepsin K (CTSK), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9). Furthermore, as measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot, EMF induced no changes in the levels of p-ERK and p-38; however, it reduced the levels of TRPV4 and p-CREB. Overall, our findings indicate that EMF irradiation inhibits osteoclast differentiation through the TRPV4 and p-CREB pathway.

NOX4 blockade suppresses titanium nanoparticle-induced bone destruction via activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway. J Nanobiotechnology 2022; 20:241.

Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis (PPO) triggered by wear particles is the most severe complication of total joint replacement (TJR) surgeries, representing the major cause of implant failure, which is public health concern worldwide. Previous studies have confirmed the specialized role of osteoclast-induced progressive bone destruction in the progression of PPO. Additionally, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by wear particles can promote excessive osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 4 (NOX4), a cellular enzyme, is considered to be responsible for the production of ROS and the formation of mature osteoclasts. However, NOX4 involvement in PPO has not yet been elucidated. Therefore, we investigated the mechanism by which NOX4 regulates osteoclast differentiation and the therapeutic effects on titanium nanoparticle-induced bone destruction. We found that NOX4 blockade suppressed osteoclastogenesis and enhanced the scavenging of intracellular ROS. Our rescue experiment revealed that nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) silencing reversed the effects of NOX4 blockade on ROS production and osteoclast differentiation. In addition, we found increased expression levels of NOX4 in PPO tissues, while NOX4 inhibition in vivo exerted protective effects on titanium nanoparticle-induced osteolysis through antiosteoclastic and antioxidant effects. Collectively, these findings suggested that NOX4 blockade suppresses titanium nanoparticle-induced bone destruction via activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway and that NOX4 blockade may be an attractive therapeutic approach for preventing PPO.

Abstract
Excess osteoclastic activity leads to an imbalance in bone remodeling and causes most adult skeletal diseases. Natural products are a promising source to attenuate the osteoporosis and relevant diseases of bone loss. Herein, a bioassay-guided detection of gorgonian corals resulted in junceellolide D (JD), a briarane-type diterpenoid from gorgonian Dichotella gemmacea, showing significant inhibition against the receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation in bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) in vitro. To extend the investigation for structure-activity relationship (SAR), a total of 39 briarane-type analogues were isolated including 28 new compounds, and their structures were determined by extensive analyses of spectroscopic data. The SAR data indicated that JD is the most active to inhibit osteoclast development due to the decreased number of multinucleated tartrate-resistance acid phosphatase positive cells, suppression of the actin ring formation, blockage of bone resorption, and downregulation of osteoclast-specific marker genes. Mechanistically, JD increased the protein stability of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-related factor-2 (Nrf2) and promoted Nrf2 nuclear translocation followed by activation its downstream antioxidant enzymes, which strongly abolished RANKL-induced generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Furthermore, JD inhibits the RANKL-stimulated activation of NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways. Hence, JD is considered as a promising lead compound for anti-osteoclastogenesis via activating Nrf2 and suppressing NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways to prevent osteoclast-mediated bone destructive diseases.

Abstract
Background During orthodontic tooth movement (OTM), alveolar bone remodelling is closely related to mechanical force. It is unclear whether stem cells can affect osteoclastogenesis to promote OTM. This study aimed to investigate the role of mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mBMMSCs) under compression load in OTM. Methods A mouse OTM model was established, and GFP-labelled mBMMSCs and normal saline were injected into different groups of mice by tail vein injection. OTM distance was measured using tissue specimens and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). The locations of mBMMSCs were traced using GFP immunohistochemistry. Haematoxylin-eosin staining, tartrate-resistant acid phosphate (TRAP) staining and immunohistochemistry of Runx2 and lipoprotein lipase were used to assess changes in the periodontal ligament during OTM. mBMMSCs under compression were co-cultured with mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (mBMMs), and the gene expression levels of Rankl, Mmp-9, TRAP, Ctsk, Alp, Runx2, Ocn and Osterix were determined by RT-PCR. Results Ten days after mBMMSCs were injected into the tail vein of mice, the OTM distance increased from 176 (normal saline) to 298.4 μm, as determined by tissue specimen observation, and 174.2 to 302.6 μm, as determined by micro-CT metrological analysis. GFP-labelled mBMMSCs were mostly located on the compressed side of the periodontal ligament. Compared to the saline group, the number of osteoclasts in the alveolar bone increased significantly (P < 0.01) on the compressed side in the mBMMSC group. Three days after mBMMSC injection, the number of Runx2-GFP double-positive cells on the tension side was significantly higher than that on the compression side. After applying compressive force on the mBMMSCs in vitro for 2 days, RANKL expression was significantly higher than in the non-compression cells, but expression of Alp, Runx2, Ocn and Osterix was significantly decreased (P < 0.05). The numbers of osteoclasts differentiated in response to mBMMs co-cultured with mBMMSCs under pressure load and expression of osteoclast differentiation marker genes (Mmp-9, TRAP and Ctsk) were significantly higher than those in mBMMs stimulated by M-CSF alone (P < 0.05). Conclusions mBMMSCs are not only recruited to the compressed side of the periodontal ligament but can also promote osteoclastogenesis by expressing Rankl, improving the efficiency of OTM.

[PMID: 33556550 DOI: 10.1016/j.fitote.2021.104842] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2020] [Revised: 12/27/2020] [Accepted: 01/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Members of the botanical families Apiaceae/Umbelliferae, Asteraceae, Fabaceae/Leguminosae, and Thymelaeaceae are rich in coumarins and have traditionally been used as ethnomedicines in many regions including Europe, Asia, and South America. Coumarins are a class of secondary metabolites that are widely present in plants, fungi, and bacteria and exhibit several pharmacological, biochemical, and therapeutic effects. Recently, many plants rich in coumarins and their derivatives were found to affect bone metabolism. OBJECTIVE To review scientific literature describing the mechanisms of action of coumarins in osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption. MATERIALS AND METHODS For this systematic review, the PubMed, Scopus, and Periodical Capes databases and portals were searched. We included in vitro research articles published between 2010 and 2020 that evaluated coumarins using osteoclastogenic markers. RESULTS Coumarins have been reported to downregulate RANKL-RANK signaling and various downstream signaling pathways required for osteoclast development, such as NF-κB, MAPK, Akt, and Ca2+ signaling, as well as pathways downstream of the nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFATc1), including tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), cathepsin K (CTSK), and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9). CONCLUSIONS Coumarins primarily inhibit osteoclast differentiation and activation by modulating different intracellular signaling pathways; therefore, they could serve as potential candidates for controlled randomized clinical trials aimed at improving human bone health.

Akisaka T, Yoshida A. Surface distribution of heterogenous clathrin assemblies in resorbing osteoclasts. Exp Cell Res 2020; 399:112433. [PMID: 33359468 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2020.112433] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2020] [Revised: 12/06/2020] [Accepted: 12/12/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
Osteoclasts seeded on either glass coverslips or apatite pellets have at least two morphologically distinct substrate adhesion sites: actin-based adhesion structures including podosome belts and sealing zones, and adjacent clathrin sheets. Clathrin-coated structures are exclusively localized at the podosome belts and sealing zone, in both of which the plasma membrane forms a tight attachment to the substrate surface. When cultured on apatite osteoclasts can degrade the apatite leading to the formation of resorption lacunae. The sealing zone divides the ventral membrane into different domains, outside and inside of the sealing zones. The former facing the smooth-surfaced intact apatite contains relatively solitary or networks of larger flat clathrin structures; and the latter, facing the rough-surfaced degraded apatite in the resorption lacunae contain clathrin in various shapes and sizes. Clathrin assemblies on the membrane domain facing not only a resorption lacuna, or trails but also intact apatite indeed were observed to be heterogeneous in size and intensity, suggesting that they appeared to follow variations in the surface topography of the apatite surface. These results provide a detailed insight into the flat clathrin sheets that have been suggested to be the sites of adhesion and mechanosensing in co-operation with podosomes.

Osteoclast-mediated biocorrosion of pure titanium in an inflammatory microenvironment. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2020; 119:111610. [PMID: 33321654 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2020.111610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2020] [Revised: 09/28/2020] [Accepted: 10/05/2020] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
Titanium (Ti) and alloys thereof are commonly utilized in biomedical settings owing to their desirable mechanical properties and good biocompatibility. However, when exposed to biological systems for extended periods of time, Ti still undergoes corrosion. In the present study, we therefore explore the impact of osteoclasts (OC) on the surface characteristics and corrosion of commercially pure Titanium (cpTi) in the context of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. We utilized tartrate resistant acidic phosphatase (TRAP) and fluorescence staining to assess OC properties, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), optical profilometer, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization tests, and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) were used to evaluate metal microstructure, surface composition and roughness, electrochemical corrosion properties, and metal ion release. SEM findings demonstrated that the surface of cpTi exhibited micro-pitting as well as the presence of viable OCs. Correspondingly, cpTi that had been exposed to OCs exhibited reduced levels of Ti, oxygen, and oxides within the corroded regions relative to smooth Ti as measured via EDS and XPS. OC exposure was also associated with significant changes in cpTi surface roughness, a significant decrease in corrosion resistance, and a significant increase in the release of Ti ions into the surrounding medium. In summary, these findings indicate that OC culture on the surface of cpTi can directly corrode titanium and lead to the release of Ti ions.

Abstract
Autophagy is an evolutionary conserved and highly regulated recycling process of cellular wastes. Having a housekeeping role, autophagy through the digestion of domestic cytosolic organelles, proteins, macromolecules, and pathogens, eliminates unnecessary materials and provides nutrients and energy for cell survival and maintenance. The critical role of autophagy and autophagy-related proteins in osteoclast differentiation, bone resorption, and maintenance of bone homeostasis has previously been reported. Increasing evidence reveals that autophagy dysregulation leads to alteration of osteoclast function and enhanced bone loss, which is associated with the onset and progression of osteoporosis. In this review, we briefly consolidate the current state-of-the-art technology regarding the role of autophagy in osteoclast function in both physiologic and pathologic conditions to have a more general view on this issue.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a highly prevalent disorder characterized by the loss of bone mass and microarchitecture deterioration of bone tissue, attributed to various factors, including menopause (primary), aging (primary) and adverse effects of relevant medications (secondary). In recent decades, knowledge regarding the etiological mechanisms underpinning osteoporosis emphasizes that bone cellular homeostasis, including the maintenance of cell functions, differentiation, and the response to stress, is tightly regulated by autophagy, which is a cell survival mechanism for eliminating and recycling damaged proteins and organelles. With the important roles in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and organ function, autophagy has emerged as a potential target for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. In this review, we update and discuss the pathophysiology of autophagy in normal bone cell life cycle and metabolism. Then, the alternations of autophagy in primary and secondary osteoporosis, and the accompanied pathological process are discussed. Finally, we discuss current strategies, limitations, and challenges involved in targeting relevant pathways and propose strategies by which such hurdles may be circumvented in the future for their translation into clinical validations and applications for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Excessive osteoclast leads to the imbalance in bone reconstruction and results in osteolytic diseases, such as osteoporosis and rheumatic arthritis. Integrin αvβ3 abundantly expresses on osteoclast and plays a critical role in the formation and function of osteoclast, therefore, blockage of αvβ3 has become an attractive therapeutic option for osteolytic diseases. In this study, we find that Tablysin-15, a RGD motif containing disintegrin, concentration-dependently suppresses RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis, F-actin ring formation and bone resorption without affecting the cell viabilities. Tablysin-15 binds to integrin αvβ3 and inhibits the activation of FAK-associated signaling pathways. Tablysin-15 also suppresses the activation of NF-кB, MAPK, and Akt-NFATc1 signaling pathways, which are crucial transcription factors during osteoclast differentiation. Moreover, Tablysin-15 decreases the osteoclastogenesis marker gene expression, including MMP-9, TRAP, CTSK, and c-Src. Finally, Tablysin-15 significantly inhibits LPS-induced bone loss in a mouse model. Taken together, our results indicate that Tablysin-15 significantly suppresses osteoclastogenesis in vitro and in vivo, thus it might be a excellent candidate for treating osteolytic-related diseases.

Abstract
Podosomes are actin-based adhesion and invasion structures in a variety of cell types, with podosome-forming cells displaying up to several hundreds of these structures. Podosome number, distribution and composition can be affected by experimental treatments or during regular turnover, necessitating a tool that is able to detect even subtle differences in podosomal properties. Here, we present a Fiji-based macro code termed 'Poji' ('podosome analysis by Fiji'), which serves as an easy-to-use tool to characterize a variety of cellular and podosomal parameters, including area, fluorescence intensity, relative enrichment of associated proteins and radial podosome intensity profiles. This tool should be useful to gain more detailed insight into the regulation, architecture and functions of podosomes. Moreover, we show that Poji is easily adaptable for the analysis of invadopodia and associated extracellular matrix degradation, and likely also of other micron-size punctate structures. This article describes the workflow of the Poji macro, presents several examples of its applications, and also points out limitations, as well as respective solutions, and adaptable features to streamline the analysis.This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Abstract
Bone resorption requires the formation of complex, actin-rich cytoskeletal structures. During the early phase of sealing ring formation by osteoclasts, L-plastin regulates actin-bundling to form the nascent sealing zones (NSZ). Here, we show that L-plastin knockout mice produce osteoclasts that are deficient in the formation of NSZs, are hyporesorptive, and make superficial resorption pits in vitro. Transduction of TAT-fused full-length L-plastin peptide into osteoclasts from L-plastin knockout mice rescued the formation of nascent sealing zones and sealing rings in a time-dependent manner. This response was not observed with mutated full-length L-plastin (Ser-5 and -7 to Ala-5 and -7) peptide. In contrast to the observed defect in the NSZ, L-plastin deficiency did not affect podosome formation or adhesion of osteoclasts in vitro or in vivo. Histomorphometry analyses in 8- and 12-week-old female L-plastin knockout mice demonstrated a decrease in eroded perimeters and an increase in trabecular bone density, without a change in bone formation by osteoblasts. This decrease in eroded perimeters supports that osteoclast function is attenuated in L-plastin knockouts. Micro-CT analyses confirmed a marked increase in trabecular bone mass. In conclusion, female L-plastin knockout mice had increased trabecular bone density due to impaired bone resorption by osteoclasts. L-plastin could be a potential target for therapeutic interventions to treat trabecular bone loss.

Serum Proteomic Analysis Reveals Vitamin D-Binding Protein (VDBP) as a Potential Biomarker for Low Bone Mineral Density in Mexican Postmenopausal Women. Nutrients 2019; 11:nu11122853.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease mainly affecting women over 50 years old and it represents a serious public health problem because of the high socioeconomic burden. This disease is characterized by deterioration of bone microarchitecture, low bone mineral density (BMD), and increased risk of fragility fractures. This study aimed to identify serum useful proteins as biomarkers for the diagnosis and/or prognosis of osteoporosis and fracture risk. We collected 446 serum samples from postmenopausal women aged ≥45 years old. Based on the BMD measurement, we classified the participants into three groups: osteoporotic, osteopenic, and normal. In an initial discovery stage, we conducted a proteomic approach using two-dimensional differential gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). The peptides into the spots of interest were identified through matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF/TOF). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to validate the proteins of interest. We identified 27 spots of interest when comparing low BMD versus normal BMD postmenopausal women. Based on their relevance in bone metabolism, we analyzed three proteins: ceruloplasmin (CP), gelsolin (GSN), and vitamin D-binding protein (VDBP). Our results demonstrated that low serum VDBP levels correlate with low BMD (osteopenic and osteoporotic). Therefore, VDBP could be considered as a novel, potential, and non-invasive biomarker for the early detection of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Integrin αv β3 is a transmembrane integrin, which can initiate osteoclasts' attachment on bones, leading to downward signaling pathways and subsequent bone resorption. Different calcium concentrations have been reported to have an influence on the activation of integrin αv β3 . To elucidate the regulatory mechanism of extracellular calcium concentrations on osteoclasts, a controlled micro flow plate (M04S) was utilized in the ONIX flow control system to observe the osteoclasts' adhesion and migration in different calcium concentration media. Fluorescent staining is conducted to show the distribution of integrin αv β3 and cytoskeleton reorganization. In addition, western blots were performed to detect the expression of integrin αv β3 and its downstream signaling pathways related to bone resorption. Also, real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction data of transcription co-activator (YAP/TAZ) and hydrolytic enzymes (the matrix metalloproteinase 9 and cathepsin K) are evaluated. Our findings suggest that osteoclasts' migration and adhesion is better promoted at 0.5 mM than 1.2 mM, which can be partly explained by the induced cytoskeleton organization via integrin αv β3 /Rho GTPase. But the activation and nuclear localization of YAP/TAZ, and the secretion of hydrolytic enzymes were upregulated when the calcium concentration is at a higher level (1.2 mM). According to our study, there is a high possibility that the migration and attachment of osteoclasts and subsequent osteoclastic bone resorption are regulated over a specific range of extracellular calcium concentration.

Abstract
Osteoclast overactivation‐induced imbalance in bone remodelling leads to pathological bone destruction, which is a characteristic of many osteolytic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, periprosthetic osteolysis and periodontitis. Natural compounds that suppress osteoclast formation and function have therapeutic potential for treating these diseases. Stachydrine (STA) is a bioactive alkaloid isolated from Leonurus heterophyllus Sweet and possesses antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, anticancer and cardioprotective properties. However, its effects on osteoclast formation and function have been rarely described. In the present study, we found that STA suppressed receptor activator of nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) ligand (RANKL)‐induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption, and reduced osteoclast‐related gene expression in vitro. Mechanistically, STA inhibited RANKL‐induced activation of NF‐κB and Akt signalling, thus suppressing nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 induction and nuclear translocation. In addition, STA alleviated bone loss and reduced osteoclast number in a murine model of LPS‐induced inflammatory bone loss. STA also inhibited the activities of NF‐κB and NFATc1 in vivo. Together, these results suggest that STA effectively inhibits osteoclastogenesis both in vitro and in vivo and therefore is a potential option for treating osteoclast‐related diseases.

Abstract
Osteoclasts (OCs) can adhere to a variety of substrate surfaces by highly dynamic actin-based cytoskeletal structures termed podosomes. This tight attachment is established by a sealing zone (SZ), which is made of interconnected individual podosomes. Compared with scattered podosomes in various cell types, the architecture of the SZ is still unclear. Especially, ultrastructural studies on the details of the cytoskeletal structure of an OC have been challenging, because the high density of filaments in their podosomes obscure visualization of individual filaments. Therefore, to study this organization in more exact detail, we employed shearing open combined with replica electron microscopy. The present study provides several new details of the podosome and SZ structure, which were previously unrecognized: (a) the SZ consists of recognizable podosomes with a dense actin network of interpodosomal regions characterized by multiple layers of crossing, branching and anastomosing actin filament networks; (b) the Arp2/3 complex is distributed throughout the actin network of podosomes and SZ, indicating that actin polymerization is concentrated at these regions; (c) a close spatial relationship between the podosome and the dorsal membrane; and (d) a network of membranous organelles in close proximity to the podosomes in the SZ. Taken together, the present study reveals that a more complicated interpodosomal actin network among neighboring individual podosomes, which is more complicated than previously thought, appears to form the SZ. Indeed, individual podosomes are not an isolated structural unit from other organelles; and, in turn, their dynamism might affect the surrounding interpodosomal cytoskeletons, membranous organelles, and plasma membrane.

Abstract
Background Osteoclast precursor cells are constitutively differentiated into mature osteoclasts on bone tissues. We previously reported that the continuous stimulation of RAW264.7 precursor cells with compressive force induces the formation of multinucleated giant cells via receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANK)-RANK ligand (RANKL) signaling. Here, we examined the bone resorptive function of multinucleated osteoclasts induced by continuous compressive force. Material/Methods Cells were continuously stimulated with 0.3, 0.6, and 1.1 g/cm2 compressive force created by increasing the amount of the culture solution in the presence of RANKL. Actin ring organization was evaluated by fluorescence microscopy. mRNA expression of genes encoding osteoclastic bone resorption-related enzymes was examined by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Mineral resorption was evaluated using calcium phosphate-coated plates. Results Multinucleated osteoclast-like cells with actin rings were observed for all three magnitudes of compressive force, and the area of actin rings increased as a function of the applied force. Carbonic anhydrase II expression as well as calcium elution from the calcium phosphate plate was markedly higher after stimulation with 0.6 and 1.1 g/cm2 force than 0.3 g/cm2. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression decreased and cathepsin K expression increased slightly by the continuous application of compressive force. Conclusions Our study demonstrated that multinucleated osteoclast-like cells induced by the stimulation of RAW264.7 cells with continuous compressive force exhibit high dissolution of the inorganic phase of bone by upregulating carbonic anhydrase II expression and actin ring formation. These findings improve our understanding of the role of mechanical load in bone remodeling.

Abstract
It has been long realized that the immune and skeletal systems are closely linked. This crosstalk, also known as osteoimmunology, is a primary process required for bone health. For example, the immune system acts as a key regulator in osteoclasts-osteoblasts coupling to maintain the balanced bone remodeling. Osteoimmunology is achieved through many cellular and molecular processes, among which autophagy has recently been found to play an indispensable role. Autophagy is a highly conserved process in eukaryotic cells, by which the cytoplasm components such as dysfunctional organelles are degraded through lysosomes and then returned to the cytosol for reuse. Autophagy is present in all cells at basal levels to maintain homeostasis and to promote cell survival in response to cellular stress conditions such as nutrition deprivation and hypoxia. Autophagy is a required process in immune cell activation/polarization and osteoclast differentiation, which protecting cells from oxidative stress. The essential of autophagy in osteogenesis is its involvement in osteoblast differentiation and mineralization, especially the role of autophagosome in extracellular calcium transportation. The modulatory feature of autophagy in both immune and skeleton systems suggests its crucial roles in osteoimmunology. Furthermore, autophagy also participates in the maintenance of bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell niche. The focus of this review is to highlight the role of autophagy in the immune-skeleton interactions and the effects on bone physiology, as well as the future application in translational research.

Abstract
Osteolysis is a serious complication of several chronic inflammatory diseases and is closely associated with a local chronic inflammatory reaction with a variety of causes. However, similarities exist in the mechanisms of their pathological processes. Inflammatory factors and oxidative stress-induced nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) signaling pathways play a center role in bone erosion. Dihydromyricetin (DMY) is a natural compound with anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effect, which are commonly used in chronic pharyngitis and alcohol use disorders. In the current study, we identified that DMY attenuated lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced oxidative stress through inhibiting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO), downregulated COX-2 and iNOS, and promoted the activity of the antioxidative system by activating superoxide dismutase (SOD) and Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. To further investigate the underlying mechanism, we found that DMY inhibits osteoclast (OC) differentiation and bone resorption activity through blocking the RANKL-induced activation of the NF-κB and MAPKs signaling pathways and then downregulated c-Fos and NFATc1, which is essential for OC differentiation. Furthermore, DMY inhibited LPS-induced osteolysis in vivo. Collectively, these results indicate that DMY might be a promising prophylactic antiosteoclastic/resorptive agent in preventing or treating bone lysis diseases.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening and periprosthetic osteolysis are the leading causes of total joint arthroplasty failure, which occurs as a result of chronic inflammatory response and enhanced osteoclast activity. Here we showed that stevioside, a natural compound isolated from Stevia rebaudiana, exhibited preventative effects on titanium particle-induced osteolysis in a mouse calvarial model. Further histological assessment and real-time PCR analysis indicated that stevioside prevented titanium particle-induced osteolysis by inhibiting osteoclast formation and inflammatory cytokine expression in vivo. In vitro, we found that stevioside could suppress RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and titanium particle-induced inflammatory response in a dose-dependent manner. Mechanistically, stevioside achieved these effects by disrupting the phosphorylation of TAK1 and subsequent activation of NF-κB/MAPKs signaling pathways. Collectively, our data suggest that stevioside effectively suppresses osteoclastogenesis and inflammatory response both in vitro and in vivo, and it might be a potential therapy for particle-induced osteolysis and other osteolytic diseases.

Abstract
Gelsolin (GSN) protein, expressed in circulating monocytes, was previously reported to be associated with osteoporosis in both Chinese and Caucasian women. This study aims to test if plasma GSN protein level is associated with hip bone mineral density (BMD) in Chinese population. Based on two study Groups containing 6,308 old Chinese, we adopted extreme sampling scheme and selected 3 independent samples (Subgroups 1-3) for discovery, replication, and validation purposes. We tested plasma GSN concentration, and analyzed whether plasma GSN level differs between subjects with extremely low vs. high hip BMD. In Group 1 (N = 1,860), the plasma GSN level increased in the female with low BMD, which was discovered in the Subgroup 1 (N = 42, p = 0.093) and replicated in the Subgroup 2 (N = 39, p = 0.095). With more extreme sampling for the Subgroup 3 from the Group 2 (N = 4,448), the difference of plasma GSN level in the female with low BMD vs. high BMD is more significant (N = 45, p = 0.037). After the subjects were pooled from Subgroups 2 and 3, the difference in plasma GSN between low and high BMD subjects became even more significant (p = 0.016). The plasma GSN level was negatively correlated with total hip BMD (r = -0.26, p = 0.033). We concluded that plasma GSN was associated with hip BMD in Chinese postmenopausal women and plasma GSN might be a potential risk biomarker for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients exhibit immense heterogeneity which is challenging from the diagnostic perspective. Emerging high throughput sequencing technologies have been proved to be a useful platform to understand the complex and dynamic disease processes. SLE patients categorised based on autoantibody specificities are reported to have differential immuno-regulatory mechanisms. Therefore, we performed RNA-seq analysis to identify transcriptomics of SLE patients with distinguished autoantibody specificities. The SLE patients were segregated into three subsets based on the type of autoantibodies present in their sera (anti-dsDNA+ group with anti-dsDNA autoantibody alone; anti-ENA+ group having autoantibodies against extractable nuclear antigens (ENA) only, and anti-dsDNA+ENA+ group having autoantibodies to both dsDNA and ENA). Global transcriptome profiling for each SLE patients subsets was performed using Illumina® Hiseq-2000 platform. The biological relevance of dysregulated transcripts in each SLE subsets was assessed by ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) software. We observed that dysregulation in the transcriptome expression pattern was clearly distinct in each SLE patients subsets. IPA analysis of transcripts uniquely expressed in different SLE groups revealed specific biological pathways to be affected in each SLE subsets. Multiple cytokine signaling pathways were specifically dysregulated in anti-dsDNA+ patients whereas Interferon signaling was predominantly dysregulated in anti-ENA+ patients. In anti-dsDNA+ENA+ patients regulation of actin based motility by Rho pathway was significantly affected. The granulocyte gene signature was a common feature to all SLE subsets; however, anti-dsDNA+ group showed relatively predominant expression of these genes. Dysregulation of Plasma cell related transcripts were higher in anti-dsDNA+ and anti-ENA+ patients as compared to anti-dsDNA+ ENA+. Association of specific canonical pathways with the uniquely expressed transcripts in each SLE subgroup indicates that specific immunological disease mechanisms are operative in distinct SLE patients' subsets. This 'sub-grouping' approach could further be useful for clinical evaluation of SLE patients and devising targeted therapeutics.

Abstract
Excessive bone resorption plays a central role on the development of bone erosive diseases, including osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and periodontitis. Osteoclasts, bone-resorbing multinucleated cells, are differentiated from hemopoietic progenitors of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. Regulation of osteoclast differentiation is considered an effective therapeutic target to the treatment of pathological bone loss. Natural plant-derived products, with potential therapeutic and preventive activities against bone-lytic diseases, have received increasing attention in recent years because of their whole regulative effects and specific pharmacological activities, which are more suitable for long-term use than chemically synthesized medicines. In this review, we summarized the detailed research progress on the active compounds derived from medical plants with potential anti-resorptive effects and their molecular mechanisms on inhibiting osteoclast formation and function. The active ingredients derived from natural plants that are efficacious in suppressing osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption include flavonoids, terpenoids (sesquiterpenoids, diterpenoids, triterpenoids), glycosides, lignans, coumarins, alkaloids, polyphenols, limonoids, quinones and others (steroid, oxoxishhone, fatty acid). Studies have shown that above natural products exert the inhibitory effects via regulating many factors involved in the process of osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption, including the essential cytokines (RANKL, M-CSF), transcription factors (NFATc1, c-Fos), signaling pathways (NF-κB, MAPKs, Src/PI3K/Akt, the calcium ion signaling), osteoclast-specific genes (TRAP, CTSK, MMP-9, integrin β3, OSCAR, DC-STAMP, Atp6v0d2) and local factors (ROS, LPS, NO). The development of osteoclast-targeting natural products is of great value for the prevention or treatment of bone diseases and for bone regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Dendrobium moniliforme (DM) is a well-known plant-derived extract that is widely used in Oriental medicine. DM and its chemical constituents have been reported to have a variety of pharmacological effects, including anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor activities; however, no reports discuss the beneficial effects of DM on bone diseases such as osteoporosis. Thus, we investigated the relationship between DM and osteoclasts, cells that function in bone resorption. We found that DM significantly reduced receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL)-induced tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclast formation; DM directly induced the down-regulation of c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (NFATc1) without affecting other RANKL-dependent transduction pathways. In the later stages of osteoclast maturation, DM negatively regulated the organization of filamentous actin (F-actin), resulting in impaired bone-resorbing activity by the mature osteoclasts. In addition, micro-computed tomography (μ-CT) analysis of the murine model revealed that DM had a beneficial effect on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated bone erosion. Histological analysis showed that DM attenuated the degradation of trabecular bone matrix and formation of TRAP-positive osteoclasts in bone tissues. These results suggest that DM is a potential candidate for the treatment of metabolic bone disorders such as osteoporosis.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are unique cells that destroy the mineralized matrix of the skeleton. There is a "love-hate" relationship between the osteoclasts and the bone matrix, whereby the osteoclast is stimulated by the contact with the matrix but, at the same time, it disrupts the matrix, which, in turn, counteracts this disruption by some of its components. The balance between these concerted events brings about bone resorption to be controlled and to contribute to bone tissue integrity and skeletal health. The matrix components released by osteoclasts are also involved in the local regulation of other bone cells and in the systemic control of organismal homeostasis. Disruption of this regulatory loop causes bone diseases, which may end up with either reduced or increased bone mass, often associated with poor bone quality. Expanding the knowledge on osteoclast-to-matrix interaction could help to counteract these diseases and improve the human bone health. In this article, we will present evidence of the physical, molecular and regulatory relationships between the osteoclasts and the mineralized matrix, discussing the underlying mechanisms as well as their pathologic alterations and potential targeting.

[PMID: 26829213 DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2016.01.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2015] [Revised: 01/28/2016] [Accepted: 01/28/2016] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
Notch signaling plays a central role in various cell fate decisions, including skeletal development. Recently, Notch signaling was implicated in osteoclast differentiation and maturation, including the resorption activity of osteoclasts. However, the specific involvement of notch signaling in resorption activity was not fully investigated. Here, we investigated the roles of Notch signaling in the resorption activity of osteoclasts by use of the gamma-secretase inhibitor dibenzazepine (DBZ). Attenuating Notch signaling by DBZ suppressed the expression of NFATc1, a master transcription factor for osteoclast differentiation. However, overexpression of a constitutively active form of NFATc1 did not fully rescue the effects of DBZ. DBZ suppressed the autophosphorylation of PYK2, which is essential for the formation of the podosome belt and sealing zone, with reduced c-Src/PYK2 interaction. We found that RANKL increases PYK2 activation accompanied by increased NICD2 production in osteoclasts. Overexpression of NICD2 in osteoclasts rescued DBZ-mediated suppression of resorption activity with promotion of PYK2 autophosphorylation and microtubule acetylation. Consistent with the in vitro results, DBZ strongly suppressed bone destruction in an interleukin-1-induced bone loss model. Collectively, these results demonstrate that Notch2 in osteoclasts plays a role in the control of resorption activity via the PYK2-c-Src-microtubule signaling pathway.

Abstract
The formation of biomimetic lipid membranes has the potential to provide insights into cellular lipid membrane dynamics. The construction of such membranes necessitates not only the utilization of appropriate lipids, but also physiologically relevant substrate/support materials. The substrate materials employed have been shown to have demonstrable effects on the behavior of the overlying lipid membrane, and thus must be studied before use as a model cushion support. To our knowledge, we report the formation and investigation of a novel actin protein-supported lipid membrane. Specifically, inner leaflet lateral mobility of globular actin-supported DMPC (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) bilayers, deposited via the Langmuir-Blodgett/Langmuir Schaefer methodology, was investigated by z-scan fluorescence correlation spectroscopy across a temperature range of 20-44°C. The actin substrate was found to decrease the diffusion coefficient when compared to an identical membrane supported on glass. The depression of the diffusion coefficient occurred across all measured temperatures. These results indicated that the actin substrate exerted a direct effect on the fluidity of the lipid membrane and highlighted the fact that the choice of substrate/support is critical in studies of model lipid membranes.

Abstract
Invadosomes are actin-rich membrane protrusions that degrade the extracellular matrix to drive tumor cell invasion. Key players in invadosome formation are c-Src and Rho family GTPases. Invadosomes can reassemble into circular rosette-like superstructures, but the underlying signaling mechanisms remain obscure. Here we show that Src-induced invadosomes in human melanoma cells (A375M and MDA-MB-435) undergo rapid remodeling into dynamic extracellular matrix-degrading rosettes by distinct G protein-coupled receptor agonists, notably lysophosphatidic acid (LPA; acting through the LPA1 receptor) and endothelin. Agonist-induced rosette formation is blocked by pertussis toxin, dependent on PI3K activity and accompanied by localized production of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate, whereas MAPK and Ca(2+) signaling are dispensable. Using FRET-based biosensors, we show that LPA and endothelin transiently activate Cdc42 through Gi, concurrent with a biphasic decrease in Rac activity and differential effects on RhoA. Cdc42 activity is essential for rosette formation, whereas G12/13-mediated RhoA-ROCK signaling suppresses the remodeling process. Our results reveal a Gi-mediated Cdc42 signaling axis by which G protein-coupled receptors trigger invadosome remodeling, the degree of which is dictated by the Cdc42-RhoA activity balance.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are highly polarized cells from both morphological and functional points of view. Using quick-freeze, rotary-replication methods combined with cell-shearing, we clarified the variability of cytoplasmic surface of the polarized membranes of osteoclasts seeded on apatite. As to the organization of actin filaments and clathrin sheets, we confirmed almost the same ventral membrane specializations of osteoclasts on apatite as seen on glass plates. The organized actin filaments and membrane-associated particles supported the ruffled border membranes. Inside the actin sealing zone, membrane specializations were not always occupied with the ruffled border but also with other types of membranes. Some osteoclasts formed an actin ring but lacked the ruffled border projections. We report a unique and distinctive membrane modification of apatite-attached osteoclasts, i.e., the presence of dense aggregates of membrane-associated particles and related structures not found in the osteoclasts seeded on glass plates. Actin filament polarity in the podosomes was determined by decoration with myosin S1. The actin filament polarity within podosome appears to be oriented predominantly with its barbed ends toward the core, whereas the interconnecting F-actin appears to be mixed oriented. Two different types of clathrin plaques displayed different distributions: clathrin-dependent endocytosis was observed in the ruffled border regions, whereas flat clathrin sheets were found in the leading edge of lamellipodia and near podosomes. The clathrin sheets adhered to the apatite surface tightly on the ventral membranes overlaying the resorption lacunae. All these membrane specializations as mentioned above may indicate the functional variability of osteoclasts seeded on apatite.

Abstract
Bone homeostasis is maintained by osteoblasts (bone formation) and osteoclasts (bone resorption). While there have been numerous studies investigating mesenchymal stem cells and their potential to differentiate into osteoblasts as well as their interaction with different bone substitute materials, there is only limited knowledge concerning in vitro generated osteoclasts. Due to the increasing development of degradable bone-grafting materials and the need of sophisticated in vitro test methods, it is essential to gain deeper insight into the process of osteoclastogenesis and the resorption functionality of human osteoclasts. Therefore, we focused on the comparison of osteoclastogenesis and resorption activity on tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS) and bovine extracellular bone matrices (BMs). Cortical bone slices were used as two-dimensional (2D) substrates, whereas a thermally treated cancellous bone matrix was used for three-dimensional (3D) experiments. We isolated primary human monocytes and induced osteoclastogenesis by medium supplementation. Subsequently, the expression of the vitronectin receptor (αVβ3) and cathepsin K as well as the characteristic actin formation on TCPS and the two BMs were examined. The cell area of human osteoclasts was analyzed on TCPS and on BMs, whereas significantly larger osteoclasts could be detected on BMs. Additionally, we compared the diameter of the sealing zones with the measured diameter of the resorption pits on the BMs and revealed similar diameters of the sealing zones and the resorption pits. We conclude that using TCPS as culture substrate does not affect the expression of osteoclast-specific markers. The analysis of resorption activity can successfully be conducted on cortical as well as on cancellous bone matrices. For new in vitro test systems concerning bone resorption, we suggest the establishment of a 2D assay for high throughput screening of new degradable bone substitute materials with osteoclasts.

Abstract
Osteoclastogenesis is a complex process that is highly dependent on the dynamic regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. Adseverin (Ads), a member of the gelsolin superfamily of actin-binding proteins, regulates actin remodeling by severing and capping actin filaments. The objective of the present study was to characterize the role of Ads during osteoclastogenesis by assessing Ads expression and using a knockdown strategy. Immunoblot analyses were used to examine Ads expression during osteoclastogenesis. A stable Ads knockdown macrophage cell line was generated using a retroviral shRNA construct. Osteoclast differentiation was morphologically examined via cell staining with osteoclast specific markers and light microscopy. The results showed that Ads expression was significantly increased in response to receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand during osteoclastogenesis, and Ads was highly expressed in mature osteoclasts. Ads-knockdown macrophages showed major osteoclastogenesis defects, most likely caused by a pre-osteoclast fusion defect. These results indicate that Ads deficiency in monocytes inhibits osteoclastogenesis. Thus, in future studies it could be noteworthy to investigate the function of Ads in bone marrow monocytes during osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
Bioresorption is a biological mechanism by which biomaterials are resorbed and thereby disappear from implantation sites partially or completely over a period of time. Osteoclast-medicated bioresorption is a possible new advantage to incorporate material degradation into remodeling in bone metabolism process. The purpose of this study was to investigate the osteoclastogenesis and bioresorption of synthesized calcium phosphate materials. Differentiation into mature human osteoclasts on carbonated hydroxyapatite (CA) was significantly enhanced compared to hydroxyapatite (HA) and β-tricalcium phosphate, based on the quantitative gene expressions of molecular markers for osteoclast differentiation. Osteoclasts adhered and differentiated into giant multinuclear TRAP-positive cells on every type of synthesized sample based on the histological analysis. Morphological observations using fluorescence and quantitative analysis revealed that the actin rings of osteoclasts on CA were thick, small in diameter and co-localized with vinculin, similar to the rings found on bone slices. In contrast, the actin rings of osteoclasts on HA and culture dishes were thin and large in diameter. Scanning electron microscopic images and quantitative analysis indicated that the resorption pits on CA were significantly deeper than those on HA due to the enhanced tight sealing ability between osteoclasts and their substrate.

Low-dose etoposide-treatment induces endoreplication and cell death accompanied by cytoskeletal alterations in A549 cells: Does the response involve senescence? The possible role of vimentin. Cancer Cell Int 2013; 13:9.

Abstract
Background Senescence in the population of cells is often described as a program of restricted proliferative capacity, which is manifested by broad morphological and biochemical changes including a metabolic shift towards an autophagic-like response and a genotoxic-stress related induction of polyploidy. Concomitantly, the cell cycle progression of a senescent cell is believed to be irreversibly arrested. Recent reports suggest that this phenomenon may have an influence on the therapeutic outcome of anticancer treatment. The aim of this study was to verify the possible involvement of this program in the response to the treatment of the A549 cell population with low doses of etoposide, as well as to describe accompanying cytoskeletal alterations. Methods After treatment with etoposide, selected biochemical and morphological parameters were examined, including: the activity of senescence-associated ß-galactosidase, SAHF formation, cell cycle progression, the induction of p21Cip1/Waf1/Sdi1 and cyclin D1, DNA strand breaks, the disruption of cell membrane asymmetry/integrity and ultrastructural alterations. Vimentin and G-actin cytoskeleton was evaluated both cytometrically and microscopically. Results and conclusions Etoposide induced a senescence-like phenotype in the population of A549 cells. Morphological alterations were nevertheless not directly coupled with other senescence markers including a stable cell cycle arrest, SAHF formation or p21Cip1/Waf1/Sdi1 induction. Instead, a polyploid, TUNEL-positive fraction of cells visibly grew in number. Also upregulation of cyclin D1 was observed. Here we present preliminary evidence, based on microscopic analyses, that suggest a possible role of vimentin in nuclear alterations accompanying polyploidization-depolyploidization events following genotoxic insults.

Abstract
The aim of this investigation was to show the influence of G-CSF (G-CSF) on the F-actin cytoskeleton and the morphology of G-CSFR-proficient HL-60 and G-CSFR-deficient K562 cell lines. In the present study, we show changes in F-actin distribution in HL-60 cells after treatment with 5 and 10 ng/ml concentration of G-CSF but also changes in the organization and fluorescence intensity of F-actin in the K562 cell line. After treatment of HL-60 cells with 5 ng/ml concentration of G-CSF we observed an increase in F-actin levels. Additionally, a higher labeling of nuclear F-actin under TEM was observed. Moreover, changes in the cell cycle indicate cell differentiation. On the other hand, in the K562 cell line we observed an increase in the percentage sub-G1 cells following treatment with both concentration of G-CSF. Furthermore, an increase in the percentage of late apoptotic cells after G-CSF treatment was observed. A statistically significant difference in the cytoplasmic F-actin levels was not detected, but nuclear levels were decreased. In conclusion, we suggest that the G-CSF-based reorganization of actin filaments in HL-60 cells is involved in the differentiation process. Moreover, we suggest that the G-CSF-induced changes observed in K562 cells are associated with a G-CSF receptor-independent pathway or its binding to other similar receptors.

Abstract
Many multinucleated giant cells are well-known to form from macrophage origin. Those formed from other cell types are less described, but may be as prevalent in pathological tissue. Giant multinucleated cells derived from secondary and primary fibroblast sources in various cultures with similar characteristics to foreign body giant cells are reported. Secondary-transformed NIH 3T3 fibroblasts rapidly fuse within 24 h in contact co-cultures with RAW 264.7 immortalized macrophages, while 3T3 monocultures, non-contact (transwell) co-cultures, and macrophage-conditioned media-treated 3T3 monocultures all do not fuse. Primary-derived murine fibroblasts also form multinucleated cells, both in the presence or absence of co-cultured macrophages that increase during long-term culture (5-30 days). In contrast to 3T3 fusion, this primary cell phenomenon is not due to fibroblast fusion, but rather to nuclear division without cytokinesis. That these multinucleated fibroblasts can originate via different mechanisms may influence and distinguish their behaviors in conditions under which they may arise, including various in vitro culture assays, and in certain fibroblastic pathologies such as the foreign body response, fibrosis, cancer and aged tissue.

Abstract
The differential distribution of microtubules in osteoclasts in culture was examined by using antibodies against acetylated, tyrosinated, or detyrosinated tubulins. Tyrosinated tubulin was found throughout the cytoplasmic microtubules in all cells examined. An expanding protrusion that contained tyrosinated tubulin but none of the detyrosinated or acetylated form was seen in the immature osteoclasts. Detyrosinated or acetylated tubulin was detectable in the peripheral cytoplasm of the mature osteoclasts displaying the loss of the expanding protrusion. Although most of the microtubules were derived from the centrosome, noncentrosomal microtubules were distributed in the expanding protrusion, which was predominantly positive for tyrosinated tubulin. By tracing single microtubules, the authors found that their growing ends were always rich in tyrosinated tubulin subunits. End binding protein 1 bound preferentially to the microtubule ends. Both acetylated and tyrosinated microtubules were shown to be closely associated with podosomes. Microtubules appeared to grow over or into the podosomes; in addition, the growing ends of single microtubules could be observed to target the podosomes. Moreover, a microtubule-associated histone deacetylase 6 was localized in the podosomes of the osteoclast. On the basis of these results, the authors conclude that posttranslational modifications of microtubules may correlate with characteristic changes in podosome dynamics in osteoclasts.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the difference in the biological response of osteoblasts when stretched and compressed. A cellular cyclic tension and compression apparatus (CCTCA) was designed to stretch and compress cells under the same conditions. After stretching or compressing MC3T3-E1 with continuously increased strain for 5 hours, cellular cytoskeletal modulation was detected by immunohistochemical assay with actin antibody. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed at 1, 3, and 5 hours to detect local factors related to bone remodelling. Statistical analysis was undertaken with analysis of variance and the Kruskal-Wallis. Following stretching or compression for 5 hours, MC3T3-E1 attached to the culture dishes grew well. Compared with the control, the microfilaments orientated parallel with each other and were clearly observed by laser scanning confocal microscope after 5 hours of stretching. The morphology of MC3T3-E1 cells was thinner and longer than the control. However, microfilaments presented a disordered arrangement after 5 hours of compression, and the MC3T3-E1 cells decreased in size. Gene expression of Wnt10b and Lrp5 increased during tension but more in the compression groups at 1, 3, and 5 hours. The ratio of osteoprotegerin to receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand increased in the tension group compared with the control but decreased in the compression group at 5 hours.

Abstract
This study was aimed to investigate the alteration of alpha-actin in three-dimensionally (3-D) cultured myocytes under cyclic tensile stress loading. Myocytes were collected from neonatal SD rat's lateral pterygoid muscle for primary cell culture. The third-passage cells were implanted and 3-D cultured in poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) scaffold, and then subjected to cyclic tensile stress (0.5 Hz, 2,000 microstrain) for 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h through a four-point bending strain system. The alpha-actin mRNA was investigated by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The alpha-actin protein expression was examined by immunofluorescent cytochemistry, laser confocal scanning microscopy (LCSM), and image analysis technology. The dynamic adhesion of myocytes to PLGA scaffolds was investigated by fluorescence microscope and the viability of the myocytes was measured by MTT assay. After mechanical loading, the alpha-actin mRNA increased at 2 h and then declined. The alpha-actin protein expression kept increased until peaked at 12 h, but declined at 24 h. The time course changing of alpha-actin protein expression parallelled with that of cell adhesion ability. It is concluded that alpha-actin expression is probably associated with cell adhesion ability in myocytes subjected to mechanical stimulation.
