Osteoclast differentiation factor (ODF, also called RANKL/TRANCE/OPGL) stimulates the differentiation of osteoclast progenitors of the monocyte/macrophage lineage into osteoclasts in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF, also called CSF-1). When mouse bone marrow cells were cultured with M-CSF, M-CSF–dependent bone marrow macrophages (M-BMMφ) appeared within 3 d. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase–positive osteoclasts were also formed when M-BMMφ were further cultured for 3 d with mouse tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) in the presence of M-CSF. Osteoclast formation induced by TNF-α was inhibited by the addition of respective antibodies against TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1) or TNFR2, but not by osteoclastogenesis inhibitory factor (OCIF, also called OPG, a decoy receptor of ODF/RANKL), nor the Fab fragment of anti–RANK (ODF/RANKL receptor) antibody. Experiments using M-BMMφ prepared from TNFR1- or TNFR2-deficient mice showed that both TNFR1- and TNFR2-induced signals were important for osteoclast formation induced by TNF-α. Osteoclasts induced by TNF-α formed resorption pits on dentine slices only in the presence of IL-1α. These results demonstrate that TNF-α stimulates osteoclast differentiation in the presence of M-CSF through a mechanism independent of the ODF/RANKL–RANK system. TNF-α together with IL-1α may play an important role in bone resorption of inflammatory bone diseases.

Although tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)-mediated inflammation significantly impacts osteoporosis, the mechanisms underlying the osteogenic differentiation defects of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) caused by TNF-α remain poorly understood. We found that TNF-α stimulation of murine BM-MSCs significantly upregulated the expression levels of several microRNAs (miRNAs), including let-7f-5p, but this increase was significantly reversed by treatment with the kinase inhibitor BAY 11-7082. To study gain- or loss of function, we transfected cells with an miRNA inhibitor or miRNA mimic. We then demonstrated that let-7f-5p impaired osteogenic differentiation of BM-MSCs in the absence and presence of TNF-α, as evidenced by alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red staining as well as quantitative assays of the mRNA levels of bone formation marker genes in differentiated BM-MSCs. Moreover, let-7f-5p targets the 3′ untranslated region of Nucleoside diphosphate kinase 4 (Nme4) mRNA and negatively regulates Nme4 expression in mouse BM-MSCs. Ectopic expression of Nme4 completely reversed the inhibitory effects of the let-7f-5p mimic on osteogenic differentiation of mouse BM-MSCs. Furthermore, inhibition of let-7f-5p or overexpression of Nme4 in BM-MSCs restored in-vivo bone formation in an ovariectomized animal model. Collectively, our work indicates that let-7f-5p is involved in TNF-α-mediated reduction of BM-MSC osteogenesis via targeting Nme4.

Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) plays a central role in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Food and Drug Administration–approved biologic TNF-α inhibitors are thus a potential treatment for AD, but they do not cross the blood-brain barrier. In this short review, we discuss the involvement of TNF-α in AD, challenges associated with the development of existing biologic TNF-α inhibitors for AD, and potential therapeutic strategies for targeting TNF-α for AD therapy.

Cathepsin B (Cat B) is released from lysososomes during tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) cytotoxic signaling in hepatocytes and contributes to cell death. Sphingosine has recently been implicated in lysosomal permeabilization and is increased in the liver by TNF-α. Thus the aims of this study were to examine the mechanisms involved in TNF-α-associated lysosomal permeabilization, especially the role of sphingosine. Confocal microscopy demonstrated Cat B-green fluorescent protein and LysoTracker Red were both released from lysosomes after treatment of McNtcp.24 cells with TNF-α/actinomycin D, a finding compatible with lysosomal destabilization. In contrast, endosomes labeled with Texas Red dextran remained intact, suggesting lysosomes were specifically targeted for permeabilization. LysoTracker Red was released from lysosomes in hepatocytes treated with TNF-α or sphingosine in Cat B(+/+) but not Cat B(−/−) hepatocytes, as assessed by a fluorescence-based assay. With the use of a calcein release assay in isolated lysosomes, sphingosine permeabilized liver lysosomes isolated from Cat B(+/+) but not Cat B(−/−) liver. C6ceramide did not permeabilize lysosomes. In conclusion, these data implicate a sphingosine-Cat B interaction inducing lysosomal destabilization during TNF-α cytotoxic signaling.

Objective.Considering the relevance of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the pathophysiology of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), it is likely that polymorphisms in its promoter area may be relevant in disease susceptibility and activity. We investigated if clinical measures of JIA activity and TNF-α serum concentrations were associated with TNF-α −308 genotypes.Methods.Portuguese patients with JIA in 5 pediatric rheumatology centers were recruited consecutively, along with a control group of healthy subjects. Demographic and clinical data and blood samples were collected from each patient. DNA was extracted for analysis of TNF-α gene promoter polymorphisms at position −308 by restriction fragment-length polymorphism.Results.One hundred fourteen patients and 117 controls were evaluated; 57% of patients presented the oligoarticular subtype, 25% the polyarticular subtype, 8% the systemic subtype, and 9% had enthesitis-related arthritis and 5% psoriatic arthritis. Twenty-four percent of the patients presented the −308 GA/AA genotypes and 76% the −308 GG genotype, similar to findings in controls. Patients with the −308 GA/AA genotype had higher degree of functional impairment, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, 100-mm visual analog scale score for disease activity, and TNF-α levels compared to those with the −308 GG genotype.Conclusion.TNF-α −308 GA/AA genotypes were found to be related to higher inflammatory activity and worse measures of disease activity in Portuguese patients with JIA. They were not associated with susceptibility to JIA.

Although nerve growth factor (NGF) promotes survival of neurons, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) contributes to cell death triggered by NGF depletion, through TNF-α receptor (TNFR) 1. In contrast to this effect, TNF-α can promote neural cell survival via TNF-α receptor TNFR2. Although these findings demonstrate pivotal roles of TNF-α and NGF in cell fate decisions, cross-talk between these signaling pathways has not been clarified. We find that NGF can induce TNF-α synthesis through the nuclear factor-κB transcription factor. This provides a new basis for examining the cross-talk between NGF and TNF-α. Inhibition of TNFR2 shows opposite effects on two downstream kinases of NGF, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk) and Akt. It increases Erk activation by NGF, and this increased activation induces differentiation of neuroblastoma cell lines. Reciprocally, inhibition of TNFR2 decreases Akt activation by NGF. Consistent with an essential role of Akt in survival signaling, inhibition of TNF-α signaling decreases NGF-dependent survival of neurons from rat dorsal root ganglia. Thus, NGF and NGF-induced TNF-α cooperate to activate Akt, promoting survival of normal neural cells. However, the NGF-induced TNF-α suppresses Erk activation by NGF, blocking NGF-induced differentiation of neuroblastoma cells. TNFR2 signaling could be a novel target to modulate cell responses to NGF.
