Abstract
Mutations in PLEKHM1 cause osteopetrosis in humans and rats. The germline and osteoclast conditional deletions of Plekhm1 gene in mice lead to defective osteoclast bone resorption and increased trabecular bone mass without overt abnormalities in other organs. As an adaptor protein, pleckstrin homology and RUN domain containing M1 (PLEKHM1) interacts with the key lysosome regulator small GTPase RAB7 via its C-terminal RUBICON homologous (RH) domain. In this study, we have conducted a structural-functional study of the PLEKHM1 RH domain and RAB7 interaction in osteoclasts in vitro. The single mutations of the key residues in the Plekhm1 RH predicted from the crystal structure of the RUBICON RH domain and RAB7 interface failed to disrupt the Plekhm1-Rab7 binding, lysosome trafficking, and bone resorption. The compound alanine mutations at Y949-R954 and L1011-I1018 regions decreased Plekhm1 protein stability and Rab7-binding, respectively, thereby attenuated lysosome trafficking and bone resorption in osteoclasts. In contrast, the compound alanine mutations at R1060-Q1068 region were dispensable for Rab7-binding and Plekhm1 function in osteoclasts. These results indicate that the regions spanning Y949-R954 and L1011-I1018 of Plekhm1 RH domain are functionally important for Plekhm1 in osteoclasts and offer the therapeutic targets for blocking bone resorption in treatment of osteoporosis and other metabolic bone diseases.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is thought to be an estradiol-independent, hormone therapy-resistant cancer because of lack of estrogen receptor alpha 66 (ERα66). We identified a membrane-bound splice variant, ERα36, in TNBC cells that responds to estrogen (E2) and may contribute to bone osteolysis. We demonstrated that the MDA-MB-231 TNBC cell line, which expresses ERα36 similarly to MCF7 cells, is responsive to E2, forming osteolytic tumors in vivo. MDA-MB-231 cells activate osteoclasts in a paracrine manner. Conditioned media (CM) from MDA-MB-231 cells treated with bovine serum albumin-bound E2 (E2-BSA) increased activation of human osteoclast precursor cells; this was blocked by addition of anti-ERα36 antibody to the MDA-MB-231 cultures. Osteoclast activation and bone resorption genes were elevated in RAW 264.7 murine macrophages following treatment with E2-BSA-stimulated MDA-MB-231 CM. E2 and E2-BSA increased phospholipase C (PLC) and protein kinase C (PKC) activity in MDA-MB-231 cells. To examine the role of ERα36 signaling in bone osteolysis in TNBC, we used our bone-cancer interface mouse model in female athymic homozygous Foxn1nu mice. Mice with MDA-MB-231 tumors and treated with tamoxifen (TAM), E2, or TAM/E2 exhibited increased osteolysis, cortical bone breakdown, pathologic fracture, and tumor volume; the combined E2/TAM group also had reduced bone volume. These results suggest that E2 increased osteolytic lesions in TNBC through a membrane-mediated PLC/PKC pathway involving ERα36, which was enhanced by TAM, demonstrating the role of ERα36 and its membrane-associated signaling pathway in bone tumors. This work suggests that ERα36 may be a potential therapeutic target in patients with TNBC.

Abstract
Midfacial morphology varies between hominoids, in particular between great apes and humans for which the face is small and retracted. The underlying developmental processes for these morphological differences are still largely unknown. Here, we investigate the cellular mechanism of maxillary development (bone modelling, BM), and how potential changes in this process may have shaped facial evolution. We analysed cross-sectional developmental series of gibbons, orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees and present-day humans (n = 183). Individuals were organized into five age groups according to their dental development. To visualize each species's BM pattern and corresponding morphology during ontogeny, maps based on microscopic data were mapped onto species-specific age group average shapes obtained using geometric morphometrics. The amount of bone resorption was quantified and compared between species. Great apes share a highly similar BM pattern, whereas gibbons have a distinctive resorption pattern. This suggests a change in cellular activity on the hominid branch. Humans possess most of the great ape pattern, but bone resorption is high in the canine area from birth on, suggesting a key role of canine reduction in facial evolution. We also observed that humans have high levels of bone resorption during childhood, a feature not shared with other apes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate peri-implant tissue health and bone resorption in patients with implant-supported fixed partial rehabilitations. In particular, possible correlations between plaque accumulation and bone loss, as well as other periimplant health parameters, were investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 44 patients rehabilitated with fixed implant-supported partial rehabilitations were included. The following parameters were recorded: spontaneous bleeding (SB), suppuration, bleeding on probing (BOP), plaque index (PI), and probing depth (PD). Periapical radiographs were taken to measure crestal bone loss (BL). A nonparametric test (Spearman rank coefficient; rs) was used to identify possible correlations between the clinical parameters recorded. RESULTS A total of 121 implants were analyzed. Global PI and BOP were 49.58% and 20.25%, respectively. There were no cases of suppuration, and only 2 implants showed spontaneous bleeding. Mean BL was 1.53 mm (SD: 0.98). No implants showed peri-implantitis. There was a weak, statistically significant correlation between PI and BL (rs = 0.27, P [2-tailed] = .99) and between PI and the other peri-implant parameters (BOP: rs = 0.14, P = .14; PD: rs = 0.04, P = .65; SB: rs = -0.08, P = .34). A very weak correlation was also found between BL and BOP (rs = 0.1, P = .2) and between BL and PD (rs = 0.02, P = .7). Correlation was found between BL and age (rs = 0.13, P = .81) and between the other peri-implant parameters and age using dichotomization (> or < 65 years; PI: rs = -0.14, P = .11; PD: rs = -0.21, P = .01; BOP: rs = -0.21, P = .01; SB: rs = 0.05, P = .53). No statistically significant correlations were found between the clinical parameters evaluated and the sex or the dental arch treated (maxilla vs mandible). In contrast, the correlation between periodontal parameters and years elapsed since surgery (follow-up) was significant. CONCLUSIONS The present research suggests that in implant-supported fixed partial rehabilitations, dental implants with greater plaque accumulation are more likely to present augmented probing depth, peri-implant inflammation, and bone loss, although the correlation is statistically very weak. Patient age and time of follow-up also significantly affected peri-implant health parameters.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the production of leucine-rich α-2-glycoprotein-1 (LRG1) in periodontitis patients and its effectiveness as a new diagnostic marker for periodontitis. SUBJECTS AND METHODS In vitro experiments were conducted to analyze LRG1 mRNA expression in human gingival epithelial cells and fibroblasts via quantitative real-time PCR. In vivo experiments were conducted to analyze LRG1 localization in periodontitis patients. The correlation between the serum LRG1 levels and alveolar bone resorption in the mouse periodontitis model was also investigated. RESULTS A positive correlation existed between the periodontal inflamed surface area and serum LRG1 levels (Spearman's rank correlation coefficient: 0.60). LRG1 mRNA expression in human gingival epithelial cells and fibroblasts was upregulated by Porphyromonas gingivalis stimulation or tumor necrosis factor-α stimulation. Interleukin-6 in human gingival epithelial cells and fibroblasts induced the production of LRG1 and transforming growth factor-β. LRG1 levels in the periodontal tissue and serum in the periodontitis model were higher than those in control mice. LRG1 local administration resulted in alveolar bone resorption, whereas the administration of interleukin-6R antibody inhibited bone resorption. CONCLUSIONS LRG1 levels in serum and periodontal tissue are upregulated in periodontitis and are implicated in periodontal tissue destruction through interleukin-6 production.

Abstract
Glycogen synthase kinase 3-beta (GSK3β) is a highly conserved protein kinase originally involved in glucose metabolism, insulin activity, and energy homeostasis. Recent scientific evidence demonstrated the significant role of GSK3β in regulating bone remodelling through involvement in multiple signalling networks. Specifically, the inhibition of GSK3β enhances the conversion of osteoclast progenitors into mature osteoclasts. GSK3β is recognised as a pivotal regulator for the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (RANK)/receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG), phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT), nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2)/Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), canonical Wnt/beta (β)-catenin, and protein kinase C (PKC) signalling pathways during osteoclastogenesis. Conversely, the inhibition of GSK3β has been shown to prevent bone loss in animal models with complex physiology, suggesting that the role of GSK3β may be more significant in bone formation than bone resorption. Divergent findings have been reported regarding the efficacy of GSK3β inhibitors as bone-protecting agents. Some studies demonstrated that GSK3β inhibitors reduced osteoclast formation, while one study indicated an increase in osteoclast formation in RANKL-stimulated bone marrow macrophages (BMMs). Given the discrepancies observed in the accumulated evidence, further research is warranted, particularly regarding the use of GSK3β silencing or overexpression models. Such efforts will provide valuable insights into the direct impact of GSK3β on osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of different alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) approaches on bone resorption and their potential for facilitating implant placement. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent one or two tooth extractions with a desire for restoration were included in the study. The participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups for ARP. The groups were as follows: (1) Half grafting of bovine bone mineral (DBBM-C) covered with non-resorbable dense polytetrafluoroethylene (dPTFE) membrane (Test 1 group); (2) Half grafting of bovine bone mineral (DBBM-C) covered with collagen membrane (Test 2 group); and (3) Full grafting with collagen membrane (DBBM-C + Collagen membrane) as the Control group. After 6-month healing period, the evaluation encompassed clinical, radiographic, implant-related outcomes, and the factors contributing to hard and soft tissue alterations. RESULTS Enrollment in this study comprised 56 patients. At the 6-month follow-up, radiographic analysis in computed beam computed tomography images was conducted for 18, 19, and 19 patients with 18, 20, and 20 tooth sites in Test 1, Test 2, and Control groups, respectively. Additionally, a total of 15, 17, and 17 patients with 15, 18, and 17 implants were evaluated. Based on radiographic analysis, all groups showed limited ridge resorption at 1 mm from crest horizontally (Test 1: 1.29 ± 1.37; Test 2: 1.07 ± 1.07; Control: 1.54 ± 1.33 mm, p = 0.328), while the Control group showed greater radiographic bone height gain in mid-crestal part vertically (Test 1: 0.11 ± 1.02; Test 2: 0.29 ± 0.83; Control: -0.46 ± 0.95 mm, p = 0.032). There were no significant intergroup differences in terms of keratinized mucosal width, bone density, insertion torque, and the need of additional bone graft. However, the use of a dPTFE membrane resulted in a significantly higher vertical mucosal thickness (Test 1: 2.67 ± 0.90; Test 2: 3.89 ± 1.08; Control: 2.41 ± 0.51 mm, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The study showed comparable dimensional preservation with limited vertical shrinkage, while thin buccal bone plate, non-molar sites, and large discrepancy between buccal and palatal/lingual height may contribute to greater shrinkage. Thicker mucosa with dPTFE membrane required further investigation for interpretation. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT06049823. This clinical trial was not registered prior to participant recruitment and randomization.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA), a chronic degenerative joint disease, is highly prevalent among the aging population, and often leads to joint pain, disability, and a diminished quality of life. Although considerable research has been conducted, the precise molecular mechanisms propelling OA pathogenesis continue to be elusive, thereby impeding the development of effective therapeutics. Notably, recent studies have revealed subchondral bone lesions precede cartilage degeneration in the early stage of OA. This development is marked by escalated osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, subsequent imbalances in bone metabolism, accelerated bone turnover, and a decrease in bone volume, thereby contributing significantly to the pathological changes. While the role of aging hallmarks in OA has been extensively elucidated from the perspective of chondrocytes, their connection with osteoclasts is not yet fully understood. There is compelling evidence to suggest that age-related abnormalities such as epigenetic alterations, proteostasis network disruption, cellular senescence, and mitochondrial dysfunction, can stimulate osteoclast activity. This review intends to systematically discuss how aging hallmarks contribute to OA pathogenesis, placing particular emphasis on the age-induced shifts in osteoclast activity. It also aims to stimulate future studies probing into the pathological mechanisms and therapeutic approaches targeting osteoclasts in OA during aging.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study evaluated the effects of cigarette smoke inhalation (CSI) on apical periodontitis (AP) induced in rats by histometric, immunohistochemical, and microtomographic analysis. METHODS A total of 32 male Wistar rats were divided into 4 experimental groups (n = 8): control, CSI, AP, and CSI + AP. Rats in the CSI and CSI + AP groups inhaled cigarette smoke by remaining inside a smoking chamber for 8 minutes 3 times a day for 50 days. After 20 days of smoke inhalation, rats in the AP and CSI + AP groups had the pulp of their first right lower molar exposed to induce AP. Blood was collected on day 50 to evaluate nicotine and serum cotinine levels. The animals' mandibles were removed for histologic processing to evaluate bone resorption by histometric, immunohistochemical (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand/osteoprotegerin), and microtomographic analysis. The Student t test was applied. RESULTS Histometric analysis showed a larger area of bone resorption (P < .05) and microtomographic analysis found greater resorption volume (P < .001) for the CSI + AP group compared with the AP group. The CSI + AP group presented a high RANKL immunostaining pattern compared with the AP group (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS CSI increased bone resorption caused by AP.

Abstract
Introduction Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) osteoarthritis (OA) is a common TMJ degenerative disease with an unclear mechanism. Synovial fluid (SF), an important component of TMJ, contains various proteins and metabolites that may directly contribute to OA. The present study aimed to investigate the influence of SF in TMJOA at the metabolite level. Methods Untargeted and widely targeted metabolic profiling were employed to identify metabolic changes in SF of 90 patients with different TMJOA grades according to TMJ magnetic resonance imaging. Results A total 1498 metabolites were detected. Most of the metabolites were amino acids and associated metabolites, benzene and substituted derivatives, and lipids. Among patients with mild, moderate and severe TMJOA, 164 gradually increasing and 176 gradually decreasing metabolites were identified, indicating that biosynthesis of cofactors, choline metabolism, mineral absorption and selenocompound metabolism are closely related to TMJOA grade. Combined metabolomics and clinical examination revealed 37 upregulated metabolites and 16 downregulated metabolites in patients with pain, of which 19 and 26 metabolites were positively and negatively correlated, respectively, with maximum interincisal opening. A model was constructed to diagnose TMJOA grade and nine biomarkers were identified. The identified metabolites are key to exploring the mechanism of TMJOA. Discussion In the present study, a metabolic profile was constructed and assessed using a much larger number of human SF samples from patients with TMJOA, and a model was established to contribute to the diagnosis of TMJOA grade. The findings expand our knowledge of metabolites in human SF of TMJOA patients, and provide an important basis for further research on the pathogenesis and treatment of TMJOA.

Abstract
Metrnl, recently identified as an adipokine, is a secreted protein notably expressed in white adipose tissue, barrier tissues, and activated macrophages. This adipokine plays a pivotal role in counteracting obesity-induced insulin resistance. It enhances adipose tissue functionality by promoting adipocyte differentiation, activating metabolic pathways, and exerting anti-inflammatory effects. Extensive research has identified Metrnl as a key player in modulating inflammatory responses and as an integral regulator of muscle regeneration. These findings position Metrnl as a promising biomarker and potential therapeutic target in treating inflammation-associated pathologies. Despite this, the specific anti-inflammatory mechanisms of Metrnl in immune-mediated osteolysis and arthritis remain elusive, warranting further investigation. In this review, we will briefly elaborate on the role of Metrnl in anti-inflammation function in inflammation-related osteolysis, arthritis, and pathological bone resorption, which could facilitate Metrnl's clinical application as a novel therapeutic strategy to prevent bone loss. While the pathogenesis of elbow stiffness remains elusive, current literature suggests that Metrnl likely exerts a pivotal role in its development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the effects of cathepsin K (CTSK) inhibition on type H vessel formation and alveolar bone resorption within periodontitis. METHODS Conditioned media derived from preosteoclasts pretreated with the CTSK inhibitor odanacatib (ODN), ODN supplemented small interfering RNA targeting PDGF-BB (si-PDGF-BB), or PBS were prepared, to assess their proangiogenic effects on endothelial cells (HUVECs). A series of angiogenic-related assays were conducted to evaluate HUVEC proliferation, migration, and tube formation abilities in vitro. In addition, qRT-PCR and Western blot assays were employed to examine the expression levels of genes/proteins related to PDGF-BB/PDGFR-β axis components. A mouse periodontitis model was established to evaluate the effects of CTSK inhibition on type H vessel formation. RESULTS CTSK inhibition promoted PDGF-BB secretion from preosteoclasts and proliferation, migration, and tube formation activities of HUVECs in vitro. However, the conditioned medium from preosteoclasts pretreated by si-PDGF-BB impaired the angiogenic activities of HUVECs. This promoted angiogenesis function by CTSK inhibition may be mediated by the PDGF-BB/PDGFR-β axis. Functionally, in vivo studies demonstrated that CTSK inhibition significantly accelerated type H vessel formation and alleviated bone loss within periodontitis. CONCLUSION CTSK inhibition promotes type H vessel formation and attenuates alveolar bone resorption within periodontitis via PDGF-BB/PDGFR-β axis.

Abstract
Bone tissue constitutes 15-20% of human body weight and plays a crucial role in supporting the body, coordinating movement, regulating mineral homeostasis, and hematopoiesis. The maintenance of bone homeostasis relies on a delicate balance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Osteoclasts, as the exclusive "bone resorbers" in the human skeletal system, are of paramount significance yet often receive inadequate attention. When osteoclast activity becomes excessive, it frequently leads to various bone metabolic disorders, subsequently resulting in secondary bone injuries, such as fractures. This not only reduces life quality of patients, but also imposes a significant economic burden on society. In response to the pressing need for biomaterials in the treatment of osteoclast dysregulation, there is a surge of research and investigations aimed at osteoclast regulation. Promising progress is achieved in this domain. This review seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of how to modulate osteoclast activities. It summarizes bioactive substances that influence osteoclasts and elucidates strategies for constructing related biomaterial systems. It offers practical insights and ideas for the development and application of biomaterials and tissue engineering, with the hope of guiding the clinical treatment of osteoclast-related bone diseases using biomaterials in the future.

Abstract
Hajdu-Cheney syndrome (HCS) also known as Cranio-skeletal dysplasia is a rare genetic disorder of bone metabolism. It is mainly characterized by acro-osteolysis and generalized osteoporosis. The other distinctive features include a dysmorphic face, short stature, aplasia of facial sinuses, and persistent cranial sutures. Although the condition begins to manifest since birth, the characteristic features become more prominent with age. This syndrome is usually recognized by dentists due to these craniofacial abnormalities. This case report aims to highlight a case of 6-year-old girl HCS who presented with aberrant facial features, premature exfoliation of teeth, unusual mobility of teeth and atypical root resorption in primary dentition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a widely used filler for face contouring and is generally believed to be safe and effective. However, there have been reports of HA-related bone erosion in the chin area without clear scientific data regarding its existence, incidence, and severity. This exploratory study was to evaluate HA-related mental bone resorption through a prospective, controlled, observer-blind, nonrandomized clinical trial and a retrospective cohort study. METHODS On the one hand, a prospective, controlled, nonrandomized, single-shot HA-injection clinical trial was conducted. Computed tomographic scans were collected at baseline and at 6-12 months of follow-up for both HA-injection and control groups. On the other hand, an updated retrospective cohort study compared the HA-injection with a blank control group. The primary outcomes composed of three quantitative parameters [bone resorption index (BRI M and BRI N ), bone resorption thickness ratio] and one subjective evaluation index (severity ranking). Information about demographics, complications, and injection volume were also recorded. RESULTS From June 2021 to March 2023, 78 patients were prospectively recruited for the study. There was a significant association between HA-injection and bone resorption [BRI M : pre (84.24±8.10%) vs post (79.21±8.70%), P <0.001; BRI N : pre 92.50% (73, 144%) vs 87.99% (63, 132%), P <0.001; bone thickness ratio: HA 24.08% (0, 48%) vs control 0 (0, 17%), P <0.001]. However, there was no difference in large-volume (>1 ml) and small-volume (≦1 ml) injection subgroups [bone resorption thickness ratio: (21.50±10.91%) vs (24.51±11.92%), P =0.350]. The imaging manifestation revealed discernible bone resorption in 35.90% of the patients, with an median bone resorption thickness ratio of 24.08%. Between October of 2019 and March 2023, 95 HA-injection patients (190 semimandibular cases), 95 normal controls were enrolled. The BRI M was significantly lower in the HA-injection group compared to the controls ( P <0.001). CONCLUSIONS HA may induce bone resorption in the mentum. Large-scale randomized controlled clinical trial is warranted for further confirmation. Patients should be informed of this potential complication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Inflammatory disorders including periodontitis have been investigated for their impact on systemic inflammation and bone health. The present study was conducted with an aim to evaluate impact of control of periodontal inflammation through subgingival instrumentation on serum interleukin 6 and serum C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) in premenopausal females with stage II and III periodontitis. METHOD AND MATERIALS In this single-arm prospective study, periodontal parameters, serum interleukin 6, serum CTX, and hematologic parameters (total leukocyte count, differential leukocyte count, platelet count, mean platelet volume, and platelet distribution width) were assessed at baseline. Subgingival instrumentation was done, and oral hygiene instructions were given. At week 4, professional plaque control was performed, and oral hygiene instructions were reinforced. Serum and hematologic parameters were reassessed at 8 weeks after subgingival instrumentation, in individuals meeting the clinical endpoints (ie, bleeding on probing < 10%). RESULTS There was significant reduction in serum interleukin 6 of 0.168 ± 0.164 pg/mL (P = .000), and serum CTX of 17.459 ± 4.363 pg/mL (P = .000) at 8 weeks after subgingival instrumentation. There was significant decrease in eosinophil count (P = .018) and mean platelet volume (P = .016) at 8 weeks after subgingival instrumentation; however, no significant change was found in other hematologic parameters. CONCLUSION Following subgingival instrumentation, biomarkers of both systemic inflammation (interleukin 6) and bone turnover (CTX) were observed to reduce significantly. This finding hints towards a positive impact of periodontal intervention on bone health.

Abstract
Glucose-insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is an incretin hormone that induces insulin secretion and decreases blood glucose levels. In addition, it has been reported to suppress osteoclast formation. Native GIP is rapidly degraded by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4). (D-Ala2)GIP is a newly developed GIP analog that demonstrates enhanced resistance to DPP-4. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of (D-Ala2)GIP on osteoclast formation and bone resorption during lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in vivo and in vitro. In vivo, mice received supracalvarial injections of LPS with or without (D-Ala2)GIP for 5 days. Osteoclast formation and bone resorption were evaluated, and TNF-α and RANKL expression were measured. In vitro, the influence of (D-Ala2)GIP on RANKL- and TNF-α-induced osteoclastogenesis, LPS-triggered TNF-α expression in macrophages, and RANKL expression in osteoblasts were examined. Compared to the LPS-only group, calvariae co-administered LPS and (D-Ala2)GIP led to less osteoclast formation, lower bone resorption, and decreased TNF-α and RANKL expression. (D-Ala2)GIP inhibited osteoclastogenesis induced by RANKL and TNF-α and downregulated TNF-α expression in macrophages and RANKL expression in osteoblasts in vitro. Furthermore, (D-Ala2)GIP suppressed the MAPK signaling pathway. The results suggest that (D-Ala2)GIP dampened LPS-triggered osteoclast formation and bone resorption in vivo by reducing TNF-α and RANKL expression and directly inhibiting osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Investigation of the therapeutic effect of zoledronic acid (ZA) in a preclinical model of jaw osteosarcoma (JO). MATERIALS AND METHODS The effect of 100 μg/kg ZA administered twice a week was assessed in a xenogenic mouse model of JO. The clinical (tumor growth, development of lung metastasis), radiological (bone microarchitecture by micro-CT analysis), and molecular and immunohistochemical (TRAP, RANK/RANKL, VEGF, and CD146) parameters were investigated. RESULTS Animals receiving ZA exhibited an increased tumor volume compared with nontreated animals (71.3 ± 14.3 mm3 vs. 51.9 ± 19.9 mm3 at D14, respectively; p = 0.06) as well as increased numbers of lung metastases (mean 4.88 ± 4.45 vs. 0.50 ± 1.07 metastases, respectively; p = 0.02). ZA protected mandibular bone against tumor osteolysis (mean bone volume of 12.81 ± 0.53 mm3 in the ZA group vs. 11.55 ± 1.18 mm3 in the control group; p = 0.01). ZA induced a nonsignificant decrease in mRNA expression of the osteoclastic marker TRAP and an increase in RANK/RANKL bone remodeling markers. CONCLUSION The use of bisphosphonates in the therapeutic strategy for JO should be further explored, as should the role of bone resorption in the pathophysiology of the disease.

Abstract
Sustainable healthy diets are promoted, and consequently vegetarian diets are currently increasing. However, scientific information on their effects on bone health is scarce. A cross-sectional study was performed in adults (66% women) classified into three groups: omnivores (n = 93), lacto-ovo vegetarians (n = 96), and vegans (n = 112). Nutrient intake, body composition, physical activity, vitamin D status (25-hydroxycholecalciferol, 25-OHD), parathormone (PTH), and bone formation (bone alkaline phosphatase, BAP) and resorption (N-telopeptides of type I collagen, NTx) markers were determined. Lacto-ovo vegetarians and especially vegans showed lower protein, fat, calcium, phosphorous, vitamin D, retinol, iodine, and zinc intakes, and higher carbohydrate, fibre, carotenes, magnesium, and vitamin K intakes compared to omnivores. Body composition was similar in the three groups that performed vigorous physical activity regularly. Body bone mass and muscle mass were positively correlated with BAP, and time performing physical activity with 25-OHD. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency (25-OHD < 75 nmol/L) was 93.7% in the studied population, and vitamin D deficiency (25-OHD < 25 nmol/L) was significantly higher in vegans. Vegetarians of both groups had increased PTH and NTx with vegans showing significantly higher PTH and NTx than omnivores. Conclusion: Adult vegetarians, especially vegans, should reduce the risk of bone loss by appropriate diet planning and vitamin D supplementation.

Abstract
Introduction: Cannabidiol (CBD) has been shown to maintain bone integrity in pre-clinical models, but little is known about the effects of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) on bone turnover. In this study we explored the effects of two oral medical cannabis products on normal bone homeostasis through evaluation of markers of bone resorption (carboxyl-terminal collagen crosslinks, CTx) and bone formation (procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide, P1NP; alkaline phosphatase, ALP). Methods: This study is an analysis of secondary data from two Phase 1 double-blind, placebo-controlled trials of Spectrum Yellow (0.9 mg THC, 20 mg CBD/mL of oil) and Spectrum Red (2.5 mg THC, 0.3 mg CBD/softgel). Healthy participants (n=38 men, 45 women) were randomized to receive 5-20 mg THC (CBD levels varied as a function of administered product) or placebo daily (BID) for 7 days. Bone markers were assessed at baseline, upon completion of product administration (day 8), and after a 5-day washout (day 13). Results: All bone markers were significantly higher in men at baseline (p≤0.008). For CTx, there was a significant day×group interaction (F=3.23, p=0.04); CTx levels were significantly lower in participants treated with Spectrum Red (b=-164.28; 95% confidence interval [CI], -328 to -0.29; p=0.04) and marginally lower in participants treated with Spectrum Yellow (b=-157.31; 95% CI, -323 to 8.68; p=0.06) versus placebo on day 8. For P1NP and ALP, there were no significant differences between treatments across study days. Bone marker values outside the reference range (RR) were observed; CTx > RR (n=71) was predominantly (85.9%) observed in male participants, whereas P1NP > RR (n=100) was more evenly distributed between sexes (53.0% in men). These were not considered clinically significant and did not differ between treatment groups. Conclusions: These are the first interventional human data on the effect of cannabinoids on biomarkers of bone turnover. Short-term treatment with CBD- or THC-dominant medical cannabis products resulted in attenuation of a marker of bone resorption. Although the attenuation was not clinically significant, this finding may be indicative of protective properties of cannabinoids in bone. Further research over longer dosing durations in individuals exhibiting bone-specific conditions (e.g., osteoporosis) is warranted.

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.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a complex disease characterized by distinct inflammatory stages, with a peak of inflammation in the early phase and less prominent inflammation in the advanced phase. The insulin-like growth factor 2-binding proteins 2 (IGF2BP2) has recently been identified as a new m6A reader that protects m6A-modified messenger RNAs (mRNAs) from decay, thus participating in multiple biological processes. However, its role in periodontitis remains unexplored. Here, we investigated the role of IGF2BP2 in inflammation and osteoclast differentiation using a ligature-induced periodontitis model. Our findings revealed that IGF2BP2 responded to bacterial-induced inflammatory stimuli and exhibited differential expression patterns in early and advanced periodontitis stages, suggesting its dual role in regulating this disease. Depletion of Igf2bp2 contributed to increased release of inflammatory cytokines, thereby exacerbating periodontitis after 3 d of ligature while suppressing osteoclast differentiation and ameliorating periodontitis after 14 d of ligature. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that IGF2BP2 directly interacted with Cd5l and Cd36 mRNA via RNA immunoprecipitation assay. Overexpression of CD36 or recombinant CD5L rescued the osteoclast differentiation ability of Igf2bp2-null cells upon lipopolysaccharide stimulus, and thus the downregulation of Cd36 and Cd5l effectively reversed periodontitis in the advanced stage. Altogether, this study deepens our understanding of the potential mechanistic link among the dysregulated m6A reader IGF2BP2, immunomodulation, and osteoclastogenesis during different stages of periodontitis.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) serves as a vital regulator of bone metabolism, but its role in pathologically overactive osteoclast differentiation remains elusive. Here, we identify lncRNA Dancr (Differentiation Antagonizing Non-protein Coding RNA) as a critical suppressor of osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption, which is down-regulated in response to estrogen deficiency. Global or osteoclast-specific Dancr Knockout mice display significant trabecular bone deterioration and enhanced osteoclast activity, but minimal alteration of bone formation. Moreover, the bone-targeted delivery of Dancr by Adeno-associated viral remarkably attenuates ovariectomy-induced osteopenia in mice. Mechanistically, Dancr establishes a direct interaction with Brahma-related gene 1 to prevent its binding and preserve H3K27me3 enrichment at the nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 and proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-beta promoters, thereby maintaining appropriate expression of osteoclastic genes and metabolic programs during osteoclastogenesis. These results demonstrate that Dancr is a key molecule maintaining proper osteoclast differentiation and bone homeostasis under physiological conditions, and Dancr overexpression constitutes a potential strategy for treating osteoporosis.

Abstract
Aims Transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) plays a major role in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases in all organ systems. Despite its importance, NF-κB targeted drug therapy to mitigate chronic inflammation has had limited success in preclinical studies. We hypothesized that sex differences affect the response to NF-κB treatment during chronic inflammation in bone. This study investigated the therapeutic effects of NF-κB decoy oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) during chronic inflammation in male and female mice. Methods We used a murine model of chronic inflammation induced by continuous intramedullary delivery of lipopolysaccharide-contaminated polyethylene particles (cPE) using an osmotic pump. Specimens were evaluated using micro-CT and histomorphometric analyses. Sex-specific osteogenic and osteoclastic differentiation potentials were also investigated in vitro, including alkaline phosphatase, Alizarin Red, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining, and gene expression using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results Local delivery of NF-κB decoy ODN in vivo increased osteogenesis in males, but not females, in the presence of chronic inflammation induced by cPE. Bone resorption activity was decreased in both sexes. In vitro osteogenic and osteoclastic differentiation assays during inflammatory conditions did not reveal differences among the groups. Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa Β ligand (Rankl) gene expression by osteoblasts was significantly decreased only in males when treated with ODN. Conclusion We demonstrated that NF-κB decoy ODN increased osteogenesis in male mice and decreased bone resorption activity in both sexes in preclinical models of chronic inflammation. NF-κB signalling could be a therapeutic target for chronic inflammatory diseases involving bone, especially in males.

Abstract
The homeostasis of bone microenvironment is the foundation of bone health and comprises 2 concerted events: bone formation by osteoblasts and bone resorption by osteoclasts. In the early 21st century, leptin, an adipocytes-derived hormone, was found to affect bone homeostasis through hypothalamic relay and the sympathetic nervous system, involving neurotransmitters like serotonin and norepinephrine. This discovery has provided a new perspective regarding the synergistic effects of endocrine and nervous systems on skeletal homeostasis. Since then, more studies have been conducted, gradually uncovering the complex neuroendocrine regulation underlying bone homeostasis. Intriguingly, bone is also considered as an endocrine organ that can produce regulatory factors that in turn exert effects on neuroendocrine activities. After decades of exploration into bone regulation mechanisms, separate bioactive factors have been extensively investigated, whereas few studies have systematically shown a global view of bone homeostasis regulation. Therefore, we summarized the previously studied regulatory patterns from the nervous system and endocrine system to bone. This review will provide readers with a panoramic view of the intimate relationship between the neuroendocrine system and bone, compensating for the current understanding of the regulation patterns of bone homeostasis, and probably developing new therapeutic strategies for its related disorders.

Abstract
The prolonged use of exogenous glucocorticoids, such as dexamethasone (Dex), is the most prevalent secondary cause of osteoporosis, known as glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO). The current study examined the preventative and synergistic effect of aqueous chicory extract (ACE) and ethanolic purslane extract (EPE) on GIO compared with Alendronate (ALN). The phytochemical contents, elemental analysis, antioxidant scavenging activity, and ACE and EPE combination index were evaluated. Rats were randomly divided into control, ACE, EPE, and ACE/EPE MIX groups (100 mg/kg orally), Dex group (received 1.5 mg Dex/kg, Sc), and four treated groups received ACE, EPE, ACE/EPE MIX, and ALN with Dex. The bone mineral density and content, bone index, growth, turnover, and oxidative stress were measured. The molecular analysis of RANK/RANKL/OPG and Nrf2/HO-1 pathways were also evaluated. Dex causes osteoporosis by increasing oxidative stress, decreasing antioxidant markers, reducing bone growth markers (OPG and OCN), and increasing bone turnover and resorption markers (NFATc1, RANKL, ACP, ALP, IL-6, and TNF-α). In contrast, ACE, EPE, and ACE/EPE MIX showed a prophylactic effect against Dex-induced osteoporosis by modulating the measured parameters and the histopathological architecture. In conclusion, ACE/EPE MIX exerts a powerful synergistic effect against GIO by a mode of action different from ALN.

Abstract
Aging, space flight, and prolonged bed rest have all been linked to bone loss, and no effective treatments are clinically available at present. Here, with the rodent hindlimb unloading (HU) model, we report that the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment was significantly altered, with an increased number of myeloid cells and elevated inflammatory cytokines. In such inflammatory BM, the osteoclast-mediated bone resorption was greatly enhanced, leading to a shifted bone remodeling balance that ultimately ends up with disuse-induced osteoporosis. Using Piezo1 conditional knockout (KO) mice (Piezo1fl/fl;LepRCre), we proved that lack of mechanical stimuli on LepR+ mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is the main reason for the pathological BM inflammation. Mechanically, the secretome of MSCs was regulated by mechanical stimuli. Inadequate mechanical load leads to increased production of inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-6, macrophage colony-stimulating factor 1 (M-CSF-1), and so on, which promotes monocyte proliferation and osteoclastic differentiation. Interestingly, transplantation of 10% cyclic mechanical stretch (CMS)-treated MSCs into HU animals significantly alleviated the BM microenvironment and rebalanced bone remodeling. In summary, our research revealed a new mechanism underlying mechanical unloading-induced bone loss and suggested a novel stem cell-based therapy to potentially prevent disuse-induced osteoporosis.

Abstract
Pediatric patients suffering traumatic brain injuries may require a decompressive craniectomy to accommodate brain swelling by removing a portion of the skull. Once the brain swelling subsides, the preserved calvarial bone flap is ideally replaced as an autograft during a cranioplasty to restore protection of the brain, as it can reintegrate and grow with the patient during immature skeletal development. However, pediatric patients exhibit a high prevalence of calvarial bone flap resorption post-cranioplasty, causing functional and cosmetic morbidity. This review examines possible solutions for mitigating pediatric calvarial bone flap resorption by delineating methods of stimulating mechanosensitive cell populations with mechanical forces. Mechanotransduction plays a critical role in three main cell types involved with calvarial bone repair, including mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts, and dural cells, through mechanisms that could be exploited to promote osteogenesis. In particular, physiologically relevant mechanical forces, including substrate deformation, external forces, and ultrasound, can be used as tools to stimulate bone repair in both in vitro and in vivo systems. Ultimately, combating pediatric calvarial flap resorption may require a combinatorial approach using both cell therapy and bioengineering strategies.

Abstract
Pseudohypoparathyroidism is a rare disorder characterized by end-organ resistance to intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) and concomitant laboratory findings of hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia. Radiologic evidence of the disease may manifest as a variety of bone abnormalities. This case describes an 11-year-old female with a history of repaired bilateral slipped capital femoral epiphysis who presented with a limited range of motion of the bilateral upper extremities. Laboratory findings were consistent with pseudohypoparathyroidism. Radiographs revealed subchondral resorption of bilateral clavicular heads and multiple ribs and band lucencies of proximal humeral metaphyses, along with vara deformity and inferior subluxation of the humeral heads. This presentation adds to the spectrum of potential radiographic manifestations of pseudohypoparathyroidism.

Abstract
The effect of long-term periprosthetic bone loss on the process of aseptic loosening of tibial total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is subject to debate. Contradicting studies can be found in literature, reporting either bone resorption or bone formation before failure of the tibial tray. The aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of bone resorption on failure of tibial TKA, by simulating clinical postoperative bone density changes in finite element analysis (FEA) models and FEA models were created of two tibiae representing cases with good and poor initial bone quality which were subjected to a walking configuration and subsequently to a traumatic stumbling load. Bone failure was simulated using a crushable foam model incorporating progressive yielding. Repetitive loading under a level walking load did not result in failure of the periprosthetic bone in neither the good nor poor bone quality tibia at the baseline bone densities. When applying a stumble load, a collapse of the tibial reconstruction was noticed in the poor bone quality model. Incorporating postoperative bone loss led to a significant increase of the failure risk, particularly for the poor bone quality model in which subsidence of the tibial component was substantial. Our results suggest bone loss can lead to an increased risk of a collapse of the tibial component, particularly in case of poor bone quality at the time of surgery. The study also examined the probability of medial or lateral subsidence of the implant and aimed to improve clinical implications. The FEA model simulated plastic deformation of the bone and implant subsidence, with further validation required via mechanical experiments.

Abstract
After artificial joint surgery, bone density may decrease around the artificial joint; thus, postoperative bone density evaluation around the artificial joint is crucial. We investigated changes in bone mineral density and performed radiographic evaluation around the stem after reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) surgery in 17 males (18 shoulders) and 19 females (19 shoulders), aged >65 years, with >1-year follow-up. In total, 20 and 17 cases involved massive rotator cuff tears and rotator cuff tear arthropathy, respectively. The Comprehensive Reverse Shoulder System (Standard Ingrowth) was used for all cases and cement was used in eight patients due to bone fragility. We examined lucent lines, loosening, bone resorption, and spot welds in non-cemented cases using plain radiography and postoperative bone density changes around the stem using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Lucent lines and bone resorption occurred in 5 (13.5%) and 19 (51.4%) shoulders, respectively. No loosening occurred. Compared to stem bone density at 2 weeks postoperatively, the decrease rate was the largest in the proximal medial humerus. One-year postoperative bone density was not related to sex, age, cement use, or preoperative diagnosis. Higher preoperative bone density was better maintained postoperatively. Furthermore, 1 year post RSA, spot welds were observed in approximately 48.2% of cases at the distal medial portion of the stem coating, and bone resorption occurred in the proximal medial humerus in 43.2% of cases. Therefore, postoperative bone density is related to preoperative bone density, suggesting the importance of maintaining high preoperative bone density.

Abstract
PURPOSE To comparatively evaluate transcrestal sinus floor elevation (tSFE) and lateral sinus floor elevation (lSFE) at sites with different residual bone heights (RBHs). MATERIALS AND METHODS A re-analysis of data from a parallel-arm, randomized trial comparatively evaluating tSFE and lSFE was performed. Within each RBH interval (< 4 mm or ≥ 4 mm), tSFE and lSFE groups were compared for chair time, surgery-related costs, morbidity, and radiographic parameters (including the proportion of the implant surface in direct contact with the radiopaque area [totCON%]). RESULTS The intention-to-treat (ITT) population consisted of 29 and 28 patients in the tSFE and lSFE groups, respectively. Irrespective of RBH, both tSFE and lSFE lead to a median totCON% of 100%. At sites with RBH < 4 mm, pain severity was significantly higher at days 0 and 1 in the tSFE group, with no intergroup difference in the dose of analgesics. LSFE was associated with a significantly higher frequency of bruising and greater cost. At sites with RBH ≥ 4 mm, a significantly lower frequency of postoperative signs/symptoms, less chair time, and lower costs were observed in the tSFE group. CONCLUSIONS The selection of tSFE or lSFE within the investigated RBH intervals seems to be supported by differences in chair time, costs, and morbidity between the two techniques. At sites with RBH < 4 mm, clinicians preferring tSFE should encourage the administration of analgesics according to a predefined plan in the early postoperative phase. At sites with RBH ≥ 4 mm, tSFE should be preferred to lSFE due to reduced chair time, costs, and morbidity.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the clinical performance of a two-piece zirconia implant system, with a focus on biologic complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 39 patients received 91 two-piece zirconia implants. The patients were recruited from two private clinics and were monitored for 5 to 12 years (median: 5.6 years). The primary outcomes were biologic complications, such as peri-implant infections (peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis), and the secondary outcome was radiographically evident marginal bone loss (MBL). RESULTS Three patients (7.7%) with 9 total implants (9.9%) presented with peri-implant mucositis. MBL that did not exceed the first thread was evident at 32 mesial sites (35%) and 25 distal sites (27.4%). MBL exceeding the first thread but not the third thread was evident at 6 mesial and 5 distal sites (thread pitch: 0.7 mm). Only one peri-implant pocket deepened (4 mm) and showed bleeding; however, the estimated MBL did not exceed 1.65 mm. No peri-implantitis occurred, and no implant was lost. CONCLUSIONS This prospective study shows high survival rates and a seemingly low prevalence of biologic and prosthetic complications for this two-piece zirconia implant system over an observation period of up to 12 years.

Abstract
Bcl2l1 (Bcl-XL) belongs to the Bcl-2 family, Bcl2 and Bcl2-XL are major anti-apoptotic proteins, and the apoptosis of osteoblasts is a key event for bone homeostasis. As the functions of Bcl2l1 in osteoblasts and bone homeostasis remain unclear, we generated osteoblast-specific Bcl2l1-deficient (Bcl2l1fl/flCre) mice using 2.3-kb Col1a1 Cre. Trabecular bone volume and the trabecular number were lower in Bcl2l1fl/flCre mice of both sexes than in Bcl2l1fl/fl mice. In bone histomorphometric analysis, osteoclast parameters were increased in Bcl2l1fl/flCre mice, whereas osteoblast parameters and the bone formation rate were similar to those in Bcl2l1fl/fl mice. TUNEL-positive osteoblastic cells and serum TRAP5b levels were increased in Bcl2l1fl/flCre mice. The deletion of Bcl2l1 in osteoblasts induced Tnfsf11 expression, whereas the overexpression of Bcl-XL had no effect. In a co-culture of Bcl2l1-deficient primary osteoblasts and wild-type bone-marrow-derived monocyte/macrophage lineage cells, the numbers of multinucleated TRAP-positive cells and resorption pits increased. Furthermore, serum deprivation or the deletion of Bcl2l1 in primary osteoblasts increased apoptosis and ATP levels in the medium. Therefore, the reduction in trabecular bone in Bcl2l1fl/flCre mice may be due to enhanced bone resorption through osteoblast apoptosis and the release of ATP from apoptotic osteoblasts, and Bcl2l1 may inhibit bone resorption by preventing osteoblast apoptosis.

Abstract
Purpose Blood vessels distribute cells, oxygen, and nutrients throughout the body to support tissue growth and balance. Pericytes and endothelial cells form the inner wall of blood vessels, crucial for organ development and tissue homeostasis by producing paracrine signaling molecules. In the skeletal system, pericyte-derived vascular factors along with angiogenic factors released by bone cells regulate angiogenesis and bone formation. Although the involvement of angiogenic factors and skeletal blood vessels in bone homeostasis is relatively clear, the role of pericytes and the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Here, our objective was to elucidate the significance of pericytes in regulating osteoclast differentiation. Methods We used tissue staining to detect the coverage of pericytes and osteoclasts in femoral tissues of osteoporotic mice and mice of different ages, analyzing their correlation. We developed mice with conditionally deleted pericytes, observing changes in bone mass and osteoclast activity using micro-computer tomography and tissue staining to detect the regulatory effect of pericytes on osteoclasts. Pericytes-derived exosomes (PC-EVs) were collected and co-cultured with monocytes that induce osteoclast differentiation to detect the effect of the former on the exosomes. Finally, the specific mechanism of PC-EVs regulating osteoclast differentiation was verified using RNA sequencing and Western blotting. Results Our study indicates a significant correlation between pericytes and age-related bone resorption. Conditional deletion of pericytes activated bone resorption and led to osteopenia in vivo. We discovered that PC-EVs inhibited the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) pathway, which is mediated by tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 3 (Traf3), negatively regulating osteoclast development and bone resorption. Silencing Traf3 in PC-EVs canceled their inhibitory effect on osteoclast differentiation. Conclusion Our study provides a novel perspective into the regulatory role of pericytes on bone resorption and may provide potential strategies for developing novel anti-bone resorption therapies.

Abstract
Background Teriparatide (TPTD) should be followed by an antiresorptive to maximize bone mineral density gain and anti-fracture protection. Infrequent zoledronic acid (ZOL) administration has demonstrated effectiveness. The duration of ZOL effect following TPTD is unknown. Objective To evaluate the effect of ZOL on bone resorption marker in a post-TPTD versus ZOL-alone scenario in osteoporotic patients. Design Retrospective cohort study. Methods Patients treated with TPTD followed by ZOL (TPTD-ZOL) or with a single ZOL infusion were identified in the database of a tertiary referral center. Clinical and laboratory data, including C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) following ZOL treatment, were compared. Results Twenty-six patients (93% women) treated with TPTD-ZOL and 41 with ZOL were comparable in age (median 70.1 versus 69.6 years, p = 0.6) and sex. Timing of CTX measurement post-ZOL was the same, median 1.0 year. CTX was lower following TPTD-ZOL (median 142.1 versus 184.2 pg/mL, p = 0.005). In a multivariable regression model (controlled for baseline characteristics), pretreatment with TPTD strongly predicted CTX <150 pg/mL, 1 year following ZOL (odds ratio = 7.5, 95% CI 1.3-58.1, p = 0.03). In a subgroup with sequential CTX measurements following one ZOL, significantly lower levels persisted in the TPTD-ZOL group for a median of 4.4 years follow-up. Conclusion ZOL-administered sequential to TPTD yielded deeper and more prolonged bone resorption suppression than ZOL alone. Prospective data are needed to confirm whether in a sequential treatment scenario, subsequent ZOL dosing interval should be less frequent.

Abstract
The issue of dental implant placement relative to the alveolar crest, whether in supracrestal, equicrestal, or subcrestal positions, remains highly controversial, leading to conflicting data in various studies. Three-dimensional (3D) Finite Element Analysis (FEA) can offer insights into the biomechanical aspects of dental implants and the surrounding bone. A 3D model of the jaw was generated using computed tomography (CT) scans, considering a cortical thickness of 1.5 mm. Subsequently, Morse cone implant-abutment connection implants were virtually positioned at the model's center, at equicrestal (0 mm) and subcrestal levels (-1 mm and -2 mm). The findings indicated the highest stress within the cortical bone around the equicrestally placed implant, the lowest stress in the -2 mm subcrestally placed implant, and intermediate stresses in the -1 mm subcrestally placed implant. In terms of clinical relevance, this study suggested that subcrestal placement of a Morse cone implant-abutment connection (ranging between -1 and -2 mm) could be recommended to reduce peri-implant bone resorption and achieve longer-term implant success.

Abstract
Currently, bone tuberculosis (TB) treatment largely involves lifelong drug prescriptions and surgical intervention, resulting in poor quality of life for patients. Therefore, the fabrication of injectable scaffolds to form a solid framework around the defective bone region is gaining importance over the extensive use of antimicrobial inhibitors. Herein, we synthesized a novel bone-adhesive and thermoresponsive hydrogel via conjugation of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-glycidyl methacrylate) (PNIPAM-co-GMA) and cysteine (CYS). Thiolation of the polymer enables chemical cross-linking with the bone glycoprotein, enhancing bone adhesion and permitting control of scaffold retention time. The PNIPAM-co-GMA-CYS hydrogel shows higher cross-linking behavior at 37 °C, forms a strong gel in 260 s, and has 151 kPa adhesion strength on cortical bone. The lead compounds 5-methyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole-3-thiol (MTIT) and N-tert-butyl-4-methyl-6-(5-methyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indol-3-ylthio)pyrimidin-2-amine (TMTIPA) were identified by a high-throughput screening method. Effective MTIT and TMTIPA are encapsulated in bone-adhesive hydrogel separately, and both have a high release rate above >70% in 180 h. The MTIT- and TMTIPA-loaded PNIPAM-co-GMA-CYS showed an excellent bactericidal effect, reducing the relative intracellular bacterial survival in macrophages. Furthermore, the as-synthesized hydrogel has outstanding mechanical and biocompatibility properties to become a bone-replacing material and provide support to promote bone repair. This work presents a novel bone-adhesive PNIPAM-co-GMA-CYS for the sustained release of lead compounds toward promising alternative bone TB treatment.

Abstract
Aims Osteoporosis is characterized by decreased trabecular bone volume, and microarchitectural deterioration in the medullary cavity. Interleukin-19 (IL-19), a member of the IL-10 family, is an anti-inflammatory cytokine produced primarily by macrophages. The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of IL-19 on osteoporosis. Methods Blood and femoral bone marrow suspension IL-19 levels were first measured in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced bone loss model. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was applied to knock down IL-19 for further validation. Thereafter, osteoclast production was stimulated with IL-19 in combination with mouse macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL). The effect of IL-19 was subsequently evaluated using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The effect of IL-19 on osteoprotegerin (OPG) was then assessed using in vitro recombinant IL-19 treatment of primary osteoblasts and MLO-Y4 osteoblast cell line. Finally, transient transfection experiments and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments were used to examine the exact mechanism of action. Results In the LPS-induced bone loss mouse model, the levels of IL-19 in peripheral blood serum and femoral bone marrow suspension were significantly increased. The in vivo results indicated that global IL-19 deletion had no significant effect on RANKL content in the serum and bone marrow, but could increase the content of OPG in serum and femoral bone marrow, suggesting that IL-19 inhibits OPG expression in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and thus increases bone resorption. Conclusion IL-19 promotes bone resorption by suppressing OPG expression in BMSCs in a LPS-induced bone loss mouse model, which highlights the potential benefits and side effects of IL-19 for future clinical applications.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is mainly determined by the adhesion of osteoclasts to the bone matrix and the involvement of various molecules in bone resorption. The dual regulation strategy of the physical barriers of bone matrix and intracellular gene regulation generated by advanced biomaterials is a decent alternative for the treatment of PMOP. Herein, for the first time, it is identified that hsa-miR-378i/mmu-miR-378a-3p are closely associated with PMOP. Then, an osteophilic and dual-regulated alendronate-gene lipoplex (antagomir@Aln-Lipo), composed of medicative alendronate-functionalized liposomal vehicle and encapsulated specific microRNAs is engineered, for bone-targeting delivery of genes to achieve combined mitigation of bone loss. Alendronate targets hydroxyapatite in the bone matrix and occupies the adhesion site of osteoclasts, thus providing the "physical barriers". Antagomir is coupled precisely to specific endogenous microRNAs, thus providing the "genetic signals". These functionalized lipoplexes exhibited long-term stability and good transfection efficiency. It is proven that antagomir@Aln-Lipo could synergistically regulate osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, intravenous injection of antagomir@Aln-Lipo efficiently reverses bone loss through a dual mechanism driven by alendronate and antagomir-378a-3p. In conclusion, the osteophilic and dual-regulated antagomir@Aln-Lipo offers a brand-new bifunctional strategy for the precise treatment of PMOP.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that compromises the integrity of the supporting tissues of the teeth and leads to the loss of the alveolar bone. The Mir338 cluster has been proven to be a potential target for the treatment of osteoporosis and is also enriched in gingival tissues with periodontitis; however, its role in periodontitis remains unknown. Here, we aimed to use periodontitis as a model to expand our understanding of the Mir338 cluster in osteoimmunology and propose a new target to protect against bone loss during periodontitis progression. Significant enrichment of the Mir338 cluster was validated in gingival tissues from patients with chronic periodontitis and a ligature-induced periodontitis mouse model. In vivo, attenuation of alveolar bone loss after 7 d of ligature was observed in the Mir338 cluster knockout (KO) mice. Interestingly, immunofluorescence and RNA sequencing showed that ablation of the Mir338 cluster reduced osteoclast formation and elevated the inflammatory response, with enrichment of IFN-γ and JAK-STAT signaling pathways. Ablation of the Mir338 cluster also skewed macrophages toward the M1 phenotype and inhibited osteoclastogenesis via Stat1 in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, the local administration of miR-338-3p antagomir prevented alveolar bone loss from periodontitis. In conclusion, the Mir338 cluster balanced M1 macrophage polarization and osteoclastogenesis and could serve as a novel therapeutic target against periodontitis-related alveolar bone loss.

Abstract
Key Clinical Message Subperiosteal implants might be the future first-line treatment in patients with compromised alveolar ridges, although the use of proper techniques and pre-surgical imaging is required to ensure treatment success. Abstract Severe bone loss puts the success of endosseous implants at risk. This technical report aims to introduce the subperiosteal implants (SPIs) created through additive manufacturing. A case study is presented, outlining the process and strategies employed to fully restore a maxillary structure using a customized subperiosteal implant. The patient, who had previously faced disappointment with traditional endosseous implants, received a customized SPI. A detailed 3-year follow-up is also provided. The design of the subperiosteal framework and abutments is based on digital records of the patient's jaw structure and a radiographic stent during occlusion. This ensures optimal placement within the dental arch. The implant and abutments are then three-dimensional (3D) printed using a titanium alloy, while a provisional denture is 3D-printed using polymer materials. SPIs offer a viable alternative for individuals with severe jaw bone degeneration, as demonstrated in this report detailing their application in complete maxillary restoration. This patient-specific, prosthesis-driven approach avoids the need for bone grafting and enables immediate functional recovery through a single surgical procedure.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a widespread systemic disease characterized by a decrease in bone mass and an imbalance of the microarchitecture of bone tissue. Experimental and clinical studies devoted to investigating the main pathogenetic mechanisms of osteoporosis revealed the important role of estrogen deficiency, inflammation, oxidative stress, cellular senescence, and epigenetic factors in the development of bone resorption due to osteoclastogenesis, and decreased mineralization of bone tissue and bone formation due to reduced function of osteoblasts caused by apoptosis and age-depended differentiation of osteoblast precursors into adipocytes. The current review was conducted to describe the basic mechanisms of the development of osteoporosis at molecular and cellular levels and to elucidate the most promising therapeutic strategies of pathogenetic therapy of osteoporosis based on articles cited in PubMed up to September 2023.

Abstract
Melia toosendan fructus, traditionally employed in traditional Chinese and Korean herbal medicine, exhibits diverse biological properties encompassing anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, and anti-viral effects. However, its influence on bone metabolism remains largely unexplored. In this study, we investigated the impact of an ethanolic extract of Melia toosendan fructus (MTE) on osteoclast differentiation and characterized its principal active constituent in osteoclast differentiation and function, as well as its effects on bone protection. Our findings demonstrate that MTE effectively inhibits the differentiation of osteoclast precursors induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL). Utilizing a bioassay-guided fractionation approach coupled with UHPLC-MS/MS analysis, we isolated and identified the triterpenoid compound toosendanin (TSN) as the active constituent responsible for MTE's anti-osteoclastogenic activity. TSN treatment downregulated the expression of nuclear factor of activated T cells c1, a pivotal osteoclastogenic transcription factor, along with molecules implicated in osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, including tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6, carbonic anhydrase II, integrin beta-3, and cathepsin K. Furthermore, treatment of mature osteoclasts with TSN impaired actin ring formation, acidification, and resorptive function. Consistent with our in vitro findings, TSN administration mitigated trabecular bone loss and reduced serum levels of the bone resorption marker, C-terminal cross-linked telopeptides of type I collagen, in a mouse bone loss model induced by intraperitoneal injections of RANKL. These results suggest that TSN, as the principal active constituent of MTE with inhibitory effects on osteoclastogenesis, exhibits bone-protective properties by suppressing both osteoclast differentiation and function. These findings imply the potential utility of TSN in the treatment of diseases characterized by excessive bone resorption.

Abstract
Primary cilia are microtubule-based organelles that are widespread on the cell surface and play a key role in tissue development and homeostasis by sensing and transducing various signaling pathways. The process of intraflagellar transport (IFT), which is propelled by kinesin and dynein motors, plays a crucial role in the formation and functionality of cilia. Abnormalities in the cilia or ciliary transport system often cause a range of clinical conditions collectively known as ciliopathies, which include polydactyly, short ribs, scoliosis, thoracic stenosis and many abnormalities in the bones and cartilage. In this review, we summarize recent findings on the role of primary cilia and ciliary transport systems in bone development, we describe the role of cilia in bone formation, cartilage development and bone resorption, and we summarize advances in the study of primary cilia in fracture healing. In addition, the recent discovery of crosstalk between integrins and primary cilia provides new insights into how primary cilia affect bone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bone resorption of more conventional vascularized bone grafts have been well described showing minimal resorption over time. Few studies have evaluated osseous union and bone resorption in scapula tip free flaps (STFF) in the reconstruction of mandibulectomy defects. We aimed to describe our series on STFF with respect to osseous union and bone resorption over time. METHODS Retrospective chart review of patients receiving STFF from January 2014-January 2017 (n = 25). A neuroradiologist analyzed follow-up CT scans to assess (1) STFF complete, partial, or no osseous union with native mandible and (2) STFF volume change over time in a subset with multiple follow-up scans (n = 18). RESULTS Twenty-three of 25 patients (92%) showed complete or partial STFF osseous union with native mandible either distally or proximally. STFF volume change ranged from +4.8 to -54% (median -0.5%) over median follow-up interval of 23 months. History of chemoradiation therapy, bisphophonate use, sex, age, or smoking history did not correlate with bone resorption. CONCLUSIONS STFFs shows high rates of osseous union and limited bone resorption that is equivalent to, or less than, vascularized fibular and iliac crest flaps. Clinically, this translates into both optimal healing and functional and cosmetic outcomes, especially in the setting of prior therapies. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 133:2597-2602, 2023.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate (1) the temporal pattern of ferroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death, in ligation-induced rat periodontitis and (2) the effect of ferrostatin-1, a ferroptosis inhibitor, on the model. BACKGROUND Ferroptosis may contribute to various diseases. However, the role of ferroptosis in periodontitis is still fully understood. METHODS In the first experiment, 25 rats with ligation-induced periodontitis were sacrificed on days 0, 1, 2, 7, and 10. Gingivae were obtained to determine tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and ferroptotic biomarkers, including solute carrier family 3 member 2 (SLC3A2) and solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4), via immunoblotting. Using microcomputed tomography (μCT) and histology, the periodontal soft and hard tissue lesions, including dental alveolar bone crest level, bony characteristics of the surrounding alveolus, periodontal tissue inflammation, and periodontal tissue losses, were evaluated. In study two, 16 rats with induced periodontitis were grouped according to ferrostatin-1 treatment. The rats were intraperitoneally injected with solvent or ferrostatin-1 (1.5 mg/kg/day) 1 day before ligation and sacrificed on days 7 and 10. Gingival protein changes and periodontal tissue damage were also examined. RESULTS In study one, SLC3A2/SLC7A11 and Gpx4 decreased since day 1; however, TNF-α/IL-1β increased on days 7 and 10. Moreover, the μCT/histology revealed resorptive bony characteristics, inflamed gingival tissue, and periodontal attachment loss. In study two, ferrostatin-1-injected rats exhibited significantly increased SLC3A2/SLC7A11 and Gpx4 but decreased TNF-α/IL-1β than vehicle rats. They also revealed lessened bone resorption, tissue inflammation, and attachment loss. CONCLUSION This study highlights the role of ferroptosis, via the system Xc/Gpx4 pathway, in experimental periodontitis and may serve as a regulatory strategy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the proinflammatory axis TNF-α-TNFR1 in experimentally induced periapical inflammation and bone resorption in mice. METHODS After receiving Ethics Committee Approval (2019.1.139.58.0), experimental apical periodontitis was induced by means of inoculating oral microorganisms into the root canals of molars of mice. Genetically deficient tumor necrosis factor-α receptor-1 mice (TNFR1-/-; n = 50) response was compared with that of C57Bl6 wild-type mice (wild-type; n = 50) after 7, 14, 28, and 42 days. The analyses performed were micro-computed tomographic, histopathologic, histomicrobiological, and histometric evaluation, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining, immunohistochemistry, and quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Data were analyzed by using one-way analysis of variance, followed by Tukey or Bonferroni tests (α = 5%). RESULTS TNFR1-/- mice exhibited lower recruitment of neutrophils at 14, 28, and 42 days (P < .05), which resulted in reduced area and volume of apical periodontitis at 42 days (P < .05). The number of osteoclasts was also lower in TNFR1-/- animals at 14 and 42 days (P < .01), along with reduced synthesis of CTSK, MMP-9, and COX-2. Expression of RANKL, but not OPG, was reduced at 14 and 42 days (P < .001). The highest RANKL expression over OPG (ratio > 1) was found in wild-type animals at 7 (P < .0001) and 42 days (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Periapical inflammation and bone resorption were exacerbated in wild-type animals compared with TNFR1-/- mice, demonstrating that the TNF-α-TNFR1 signaling pathway mediated catabolic events in bone after root canal contamination.
