Osteoporosis is a metabolic disorder that decreases the stability against fractures of the spine, femur, and radius by weakening the strength and integrity of bones. Receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand signaling ultimately activated nuclear factor-activated T cells c1, a major transcription factor for osteoclast formation. This study researched the effects of Corylopsis coreana (C. coreana) Uyeki flos extracts on the antiosteoclastic potential of macrophages and the phytochemicals contained therein. The alcoholic extract of C. coreana Uyeki flos inhibited the differentiation of osteoclast. We carried out the experiments of the pattern of differentiation of osteoclasts based on the alcoholic percentage of extracts. Among them, 80% alcoholic extract showed the highest inhibitory effect. The alcoholic extract was composed of phytochemicals such as bergenin, quercetin, and quercitrin. This extract inhibited not only mRNA expression levels of NFATc1, osteoclast-associated receptor (OSCAR), cathepsin K, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), but also the translational expression of NFATc1. The inhibitory effect for osteoclast differentiation of the alcoholic extract was confirmed using the resorption pit assay. This is the first scientific report of the antiosteoclastic effects of C. coreana Uyeki flos extract, which can be applied therapeutically for the treatment of osteoporosis.

And Function

Osteoporosis is caused by an imbalance of osteoclast and osteoblast activities and it is characterized by enhanced osteoclast formation and function. Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase never in mitosis A (NIMA)-interacting 1 (Pin1) is a key mediator of osteoclast cell-cell fusion via suppression of the dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP). We found that N,N′-1,4-butanediylbis[3-(2-chlorophenyl)acrylamide] (BCPA) inhibited receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis in a dose-dependent manner without cytotoxicity. In addition, BCPA attenuated the reduction of Pin1 protein during osteoclast differentiation without changing Pin1 mRNA levels. BCPA repressed the expression of osteoclast-related genes, such as DC-STAMP and osteoclast-associated receptor (OSCAR), without altering the mRNA expression of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFATc1) and cellular oncogene fos (c-Fos). Furthermore, Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive mononuclear cells were significantly decreased by BCPA treatment compared to treatment with the Pin1 inhibitor juglone. These data suggest that BCPA can inhibit osteoclastogenesis by regulating the expression of the DC-STAMP osteoclast fusion protein by attenuating Pin1 reduction. Therefore, BCPA may be used to treat osteoporosis.

Gold And Silver Nanoparticles

Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have been widely studied to inhibit differentiation into osteoclasts. However, reports of the inhibitory effects of silver nanoparticles (SNPs) during the process of differentiation into osteoclasts are rare. We compared the inhibitory effect of GNPs and SNPs during the process of differentiation into osteoclasts. Bone marrow-derived cells were differentiated into osteoclasts by the receptor activator of the nuclear factor-kappa-Β ligand (RANKL). The inhibitory effect of GNPs or SNPs during the process of differentiation into osteoclasts was investigated using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and actin ring staining. The formation of TRAP positive (+) multinuclear cells (MNCs) with the actin ring structure was most inhibited in the SNP group. In addition, the expression of specific genes related to the differentiation into osteoclasts, such as c-Fos, the nuclear factor of activated T-cells, cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1), TRAP, and Cathepsin K (CTSK) were also inhibited in the SNP groups. As a result, the levels related to differentiation into osteoclasts were consistently lower in the SNP groups than in the GNP groups. Our study suggests that SNPs can be a useful material for inhibiting differentiation into osteoclasts and they can be applied to treatments for osteoporosis patients.

RAW 264.7 cells are one of the most recommended cell lines for investigating the activity and differentiation of osteoclasts. These cells differentiate into osteoclasts in the presence of two critical components: receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony stimulating factor (MCSF). Melatonin (MEL) hormone has recently become one of the small molecules used in the field of bone regeneration and bone disease treatment, as it has the ability to inhibit the differentiation of osteoclasts directly by suppression of the NF-κB signaling pathway. The main aim of the current study is to determine sufficient RANKL/MCSF concentrations for differentiation of the cells to osteoclasts and to describe the repressive effect of MEL on the osteoclastogenesis of these cells. In this regard, it was found that 10 ng/mL of RANKL- and MCSF-containing medium is suitable for inducing osteoclastogenesis of the cells. In addition, melatonin at doses in the range of 100–1000 μM does not have a cytotoxic effect. Subsequently, results of tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity, TRAP staining, and relative expressions of cathepsin K, nuclear factor of activated T cells one (NFATC1), and TRAP genes showed a suppressive effect of MEL —especially 800 μM— on RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis of these cells.

Dosage-dependent release of 45Ca was observed from prelabeled mouse calvarial bones after treatment with two thiazolidinediones, troglitazone and ciglitazone. Release of 45Ca by ciglitazone was decreased by the osteoclast inhibitors acetazolamide, calcitonin, 3-amino-1-hydroxypropylidene-1,1-bisphosphonate, and IL-4, but not affected by the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ antagonist, GW 9662, the mitotic inhibitor, hydroxyurea, or indomethacin. Enhanced expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) mRNA and protein and decreased osteoprotegerin (OPG) mRNA and protein were noted after ciglitazone treatment of calvariae. Ciglitazone and RANKL each caused increased mRNA expression of osteoclast markers: calcitonin receptor, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, cathepsin K, matrix metalloproteinase-9, integrin β3, and nuclear factor of activated T cells 2. OPG inhibited mRNA expression of RANKL stimulated by ciglitazone, mRNA expression of osteoclast markers stimulated by ciglitazone and RANKL, and 45Ca release stimulated by troglitazone and ciglitazone. Increased expression of IL-1α mRNA by ciglitazone was not linked to resorption stimulated by the thiazolidinedione. Ciglitazone did not increase adipogenic gene expression but enhanced osteocalcin mRNA in calvariae. In addition to exhibiting sensitivity to OPG, data indicate that stimulation of osteoclast differentiation and activity by thiazolidinediones may occur by a nonperoxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ-dependent pathway that does not require cell proliferation, prostaglandins, or IL-1α but is characterized by an increased RANKL to OPG ratio.

Astronauts suffer from 1–2% bone loss per month during space missions. Targeting osteoclast differentiation has been regarded as a promising strategy to prevent osteoporosis in microgravity (μXg). 4-acetylantroquinonol B (4-AAQB), a ubiquinone from Antrodia cinnamomea, has shown anti-inflammatory and anti-hepatoma activities. However, the effect of 4-AAQB on μXg-induced osteoclastogenesis remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to explore the mechanistic impact of 4-AAQB on osteoclast formation under μXg conditions. The monocyte/macrophage-like cell line RAW264.7 was exposed to simulated μXg (Rotary Cell Culture System; Synthecon, Houston, TX, USA) for 24 h and then treated with 4-AAQB or alendronate (ALN) and osteoclast differentiation factor receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL). Osteoclastogenesis, bone resorption activity, and osteoclast differentiation-related signaling pathways were analyzed using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, actin ring fluorescent staining, bone resorption, and western blotting assays. Based on the results of TRAP staining, actin ring staining, and bone resorption assays, we found that 4-AAQB significantly inhibited μXg-induced osteoclast differentiation. The critical regulators of osteoclast differentiation, including nuclear factor of activated T-cells cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1), c-Fos, and dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP), were consistently decreased. Meanwhile, osteoclast apoptosis and cell cycle arrest were also observed along with autophagy suppression. Interestingly, the autophagy inhibitors 3-methyladenine (3-MA) and chloroquine (CQ) showed similar effects to 4-AAQB. In conclusion, we suggest that 4-AAQB may serve as a potential agent against μXg-induced osteoclast formation.

Osteoporosis is a common bone disease that is characterized by decreased bone mass and fragility fractures. Isofraxidin is a hydroxy coumarin with several biological and pharmacological activities including an anti-osteoarthritis effect. However, the role of isofraxidin in osteoporosis has not yet been investigated. In the present study, we used receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) to induce osteoclast formation in primary bone marrow macrophages (BMMs). Our results showed that RANKL treatment significantly increased tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity, as well as the expression of osteoclastogenesis-related markers including MMP-9, c-Src, and cathepsin K at both mRNA and protein levels; however, these effects were inhibited by isofraxidin in BMMs. In addition, luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that isofraxidin treatment suppressed the RANKL-induced an increase in nuclear factor of activated T-cells cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1) transcriptional activity. Besides, the decreased expression level of IκBα and increased levels of p-p65, p-IκBα, and p-Akt in RANKL-induced BMMs were attenuated by isofraxidin. Moreover, NFATc1 overexpression rescued the anti-osteoclastogenic effect of isofraxidin with increased expression levels of MMP-9, c-Src, and cathepsin K. Taken together, these findings indicated that isofraxidin inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast formation in BMMs via inhibiting the activation of NF-κB/NFATc1 and Akt/NFATc1 signaling pathways. Thus, isofraxidin might be a therapeutic agent for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Multinucleated Cells

Osteoclasts, bone-specified multinucleated cells produced by monocyte/macrophage, are involved in numerous bone destructive diseases such as arthritis, osteoporosis, and inflammation-induced bone loss. The osteoclast differentiation mechanism suggests a possible strategy to treat bone diseases. In this regard, we recently examined the in vivo impact of kalkitoxin (KT), a marine product obtained from the marine cyanobacterium Moorena producens (previously Lyngbya majuscula), on the macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and on the receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL)-stimulated in vitro osteoclastogenesis and inflammation-mediated bone loss. We have now examined the molecular mechanism of KT in greater detail. KT decreased RANKL-induced bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-multinucleated cells at a late stage. Likewise, KT suppressed RANKL-induced pit area and actin ring formation in BMM cells. Additionally, KT inhibited several RANKL-induced genes such as cathepsin K, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9), TRAP, and dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP). In line with these results, RANKL stimulated both genes and protein expression of c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFATc1), and this was also suppressed by KT. Moreover, KT markedly decreased RANKL-induced p-ERK1/2 and p-JNK pathways at different time points. As a result, KT prevented inflammatory bone loss in mice, such as bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoclast differentiation markers. These experiments demonstrated that KT markedly inhibited osteoclast formation and inflammatory bone loss through NFATc1 and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways. Therefore, KT may have potential as a treatment for destructive bone diseases.

Overactivated osteoclasts lead to many bone diseases, including osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. The p38 MAPK (p38) is an essential regulator of the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-mediated osteoclastogenesis and bone loss. We previously reported TAT conjugated thioredoxin-interacting protein-derived peptide (TAT-TN13) as an inhibitor of p38 in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Here, we examined the role of TAT-TN13 in the differentiation and function of osteoclasts. TAT-TN13 significantly suppressed RANKL-mediated differentiation of RAW 264.7 cells and bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) into osteoclasts. TAT-TN13 also inhibited the RANKL-induced activation of NF-κB and nuclear factor of activated T-cells cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1), leading to the decreased expression of osteoclast-specific genes, including tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and Cathepsin K. Additionally, TAT-TN13 treatment protected bone loss in ovariectomized (OVX) mice. Taken together, these results suggest that TAT-TN13 inhibits osteoclast differentiation by regulating the p38 and NF-κB signaling pathway; thus, it may be a useful agent for preventing or treating osteoporosis.

The aim of this study was to clarify the role of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in receptor activator of nuclear factor kB ligand- (RANKL-) RANK-induced osteoclast formation. RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cells were incubated with MSU crystals or RANKL and differentiated into osteoclast-like cells as confirmed by staining for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and actin ring, pit formation assay, and TRAP activity assay. MSU crystals in the presence of RANKL augmented osteoclast differentiation, with enhanced mRNA expression of NFATc1, cathepsin K, carbonic anhydrase II, and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), in comparison to RAW 264.7 macrophages incubated in the presence of RANKL alone. Treatment with both MSU crystals and RANKL induced osteoclast differentiation by activating downstream molecules in the RANKL-RANK pathway including tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF-6), JNK, c-Jun, and NFATc1. IL-1b produced in response to treatment with both MSU and RANKL is involved in osteoclast differentiation in part through the induction of TRAF-6 downstream of the IL-1b pathway. This study revealed that MSU crystals contribute to enhanced osteoclast formation through activation of RANKL-mediated pathways and recruitment of IL-1b. These findings suggest that MSU crystals might be a pathologic causative agent of bone destruction in gout.

Abstract Additional sex comb-like 1 (ASXL1) mutations are commonly associated with myeloid malignancies and are markers of aggressive disease. The fact that ASXL1 is necessary for myeloid differentiation raises the possibility it also regulates osteoclasts. We find deletion of ASXL1 in myeloid cells results in bone loss with increased abundance of osteoclasts. Because ASXL1 is an enhancer of trithorax and polycomb (ETP) protein, we asked if it modulates osteoclast differentiation by maintaining balance between positive and negative epigenetic regulators. In fact, loss of ASXL1 induces concordant loss of inhibitory H3K27me3 with gain of H3K4me3 at key osteoclast differentiation genes, including nuclear factor for activated T cells 1 (NFATc1) and itgb3. In the setting of ASXL1 deficiency, increased NFATc1 binds to the Blimp1 (Prdm1) promoter thereby enhancing expression of this pro-osteoclastogenic gene. The global reduction of K27 trimethylation in ASXL1-deficient osteoclasts is also attended by a 40-fold increase in expression of the histone demethylase Jumonji domain-containing 3 (Jmjd3). Jmjd3 knockdown in ASXL1-deficient osteoclast precursors increases H3K27me3 on the NFATc1 promoter and impairs osteoclast formation. Thus, in addition to promoting myeloid malignancies, ASXL1 controls epigenetic reprogramming of osteoclasts to regulate bone resorption and mass.
