Bone resorption is regulated by the cytokines within marrow cells that mediate osteoclast formation and activation. IL-1 and TNF induce bone resorption by stimulating the production of osteoclast-like multinucleated cells and by increasing the bone-resorbing activity of formed osteoclasts. This study was designed to detect IL-1 and TNF in osteoclasts in vitro and to determine whether these cytokines up-regulate osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption. The production of IL-1α, -β, and TNFa, β in osteoclasts was examined immunohistochemically and by in situ hybridization. In the co-culture of C57BL/6N mouse bone marrow and MC3T3-G2/PA6 cells, a colony of osteoclasts formed, and IL-1α and TNFa were detected. However, IL-1β and TNF β were not detected. To investigate the role of IL-1α and TNFα from osteoclasts, we enumerated TRAP-positive cells and measured the resorption pit areas in the presence of antibodies against IL-1α and TNFα. The addition of antibodies against IL-1α and TNFα to the co-culture system decreased the number of TRAP-positive colonies at seven days after incubation (anti-IL-1α, 25.0 ± 2.3%; anti-TNFα, 41.7 ± 3.7%; anti-IL-1α + anti-TNFα, 40.5 ± 1.3%; and control, 100%), and the ratio of mononuclear to multinuclear cells had changed (anti-IL-1α, 90:10; anti-TNFα, 75:25; anti-IL-1α+ anti-TNFα, 88:12; and control, 60:40). The total pit areas per dentin slice also decreased with the addition of antibodies (anti-IL-1α, 28,828; anti-TNFα, 49,249; anti-IL-1α + anti-TNFα, 30,685; and control, 303,139 mm2). These results suggest that local production of IL-la and TNFα by osteoclasts is an important mechanism for regulating the osteoclast differentiation and bone resorptive process.

Hh Signaling

The functional role of the Hedgehog (Hh)-signaling pathway has been widely investigated in bone physiology/development. Previous studies have, however, focused primarily on Hh functions in bone formation, while its roles in bone resorption have not been fully elucidated. Here, we found that cyclopamine (smoothened (Smo) inhibitor), GANT-58 (GLI1 inhibitor), or GANT-61 (GLI1/2 inhibitor) significantly inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages. Although the inhibitory effects were exerted by cyclopamine or GANT-61 treatment during 0–48 h (early stage of osteoclast differentiation) or 48–96 h (late stage of osteoclast differentiation) after RANKL stimulation, GANT-58 suppressed osteoclast formation only during the early stage. These results suggest that the Smo-GLI1/2 axis mediates the whole process of osteoclastogenesis and that GLI1 activation is requisite only during early cellular events of osteoclastogenesis. Additionally, macrophage/osteoclast-specific deletion of Smo in mice was found to attenuate the aging phenotype characterized by trabecular low bone mass, suggesting that blockage of the Hh-signaling pathway in the osteoclast lineage plays a protective role against age-related bone loss. Our findings reveal a specific role of the Hh-signaling pathway in bone resorption and highlight that its inhibitors show potential as therapeutic agents that block osteoclast formation in the treatment of senile osteoporosis.

Irisin, a skeletal-muscle secreted myokine, facilitates muscle-bone crosstalk and skeletal remodeling in part by its action on osteoblasts and osteocytes. In this study, we investigated whether irisin directly regulates osteoclasts. In vitro, irisin (2–10 ng/mL) increased osteoclast differentiation in C57BL/6J mouse bone marrow progenitors; however, this increase was blocked by a neutralizing antibody to integrin αVβ5. Irisin also increased bone resorption on several substrates in situ. RNAseq revealed differential gene expression induced by irisin including upregulation of markers for osteoclast differentiation and resorption, as well as osteoblast-stimulating ‘clastokines’. Forced expression of the irisin precursor Fndc5 in transgenic C57BL/6J mice resulted in lower bone mass at three ages and greater in vitro osteoclastogenesis from Fndc5-transgenic bone marrow progenitors. This study demonstrates that irisin acts directly on osteoclast progenitors to increase differentiation and promote bone resorption, supporting the tenet that irisin not only stimulates bone remodeling but may also be an important counter-regulatory hormone.

Although the anti-tumor and anti-infective properties of β-glucans have been well-discussed, their role in bone metabolism has not been reviewed so far. This review discusses the biological effects of β-glucans on bone metabolisms, especially on bone-resorbing osteoclasts, which are differentiated from hematopoietic precursors. Multiple immunoreceptors that can recognize β-glucans were reported to be expressed in osteoclast precursors. Coordinated co-stimulatory signals mediated by these immunoreceptors are important for the regulation of osteoclastogenesis and bone remodeling. Curdlan from the bacterium Alcaligenes faecalis negatively regulates osteoclast differentiation in vitro by affecting both the osteoclast precursors and osteoclast-supporting cells. We also showed that laminarin, lichenan, and glucan from baker’s yeast, as well as β-1,3-glucan from Euglema gracilisas, inhibit the osteoclast formation in bone marrow cells. Consistent with these findings, systemic and local administration of β-glucan derived from Aureobasidium pullulans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae suppressed bone resorption in vivo. However, zymosan derived from S. cerevisiae stimulated the bone resorption activity and is widely used to induce arthritis in animal models. Additional research concerning the relationship between the molecular structure of β-glucan and its effect on osteoclastic bone resorption will be beneficial for the development of novel treatment strategies for bone-related diseases.

Lumican, a ubiquitously expressed small leucine-rich proteoglycan, has been utilized in diverse biological functions. Recent experiments demonstrated that lumican stimulates preosteoblast viability and differentiation, leading to bone formation. To further understand the role of lumican in bone metabolism, we investigated its effects on osteoclast biology. Lumican inhibited both osteoclast differentiation and in vitro bone resorption in a dose-dependent manner. Consistent with this, lumican markedly decreased the expression of osteoclastogenesis markers. Moreover, the migration and fusion of preosteoclasts and the resorptive activity per osteoclast were significantly reduced in the presence of lumican, indicating that this protein affects most stages of osteoclastogenesis. Among RANKL-dependent pathways, lumican inhibited Akt but not MAP kinases such as JNK, p38, and ERK. Importantly, co-treatment with an Akt activator almost completely reversed the effect of lumican on osteoclast differentiation. Taken together, our findings revealed that lumican inhibits osteoclastogenesis by suppressing Akt activity. Thus, lumican plays an osteoprotective role by simultaneously increasing bone formation and decreasing bone resorption, suggesting that it represents a dual-action therapeutic target for osteoporosis.

The role of proton transport and production in osteoclast differentiation was studied in vitro by inhibiting the transcription/translation of carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) and vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) by antisense RNA molecules. Antisense RNAs targeted against CA II, or the 16 kDa or 60 kDa subunit of V-ATPase were used to block the expression of the specific proteins. A significant decrease in bone resorption rate and TRAP-positive osteoclast number was seen in rat bone marrow cultures and fetal mouse metacarpal cultures after antisense treatment. Intravacuolar acidification in rat bone marrow cells was also significantly decreased after antisense treatment. The CA II antisense RNA increased the number of TRAP-positive mononuclear cells, suggesting inhibition of osteoclast precursor fusion. Antisense molecules decreased the number of monocytes and macrophages, but increased the number of granulocytes in marrow cultures. GM-CSF, IL-3 and IL-6 were used to stimulate haematopoietic stem cell differentiation. The 16 kDa V-ATPase antisense RNA abolished the stimulatory effect of GM-CSF, IL-3 and IL-6 on TRAP-positive osteoclast formation, but did not affect the formation of monocytes and macrophages after IL-3 treatment, or the formation of granulocytes after IL-6 treatment. These results suggest that CA II and V-ATPase are needed, not only for the actual resorption, but also for osteoclast formation in vitro.

Abstract Bone is the most common site of distant relapse in breast cancer, leading to severe complications which dramatically affect the patients’ quality of life. It is believed that the crosstalk between metastatic breast cancer cells and osteoclasts is critical for breast cancer-induced osteolysis. In this study, the effects of dihydroartemisinin (DHA) on osteoclast formation, bone resorption, osteoblast differentiation and mineralization were initially assessed in vitro, followed by further investigation in a titanium-particle-induced osteolysis model in vivo. Based on the proved inhibitory effect of DHA on osteolysis, DHA was further applied to MDA-MB-231 breast cancer-induced mouse osteolysis model, with the underlying molecular mechanisms further investigated. Here, we verified for the first time that DHA suppressed osteoclast differentiation, F-actin ring formation and bone resorption through suppressing AKT/SRC pathways, leading to the preventive effect of DHA on titanium-particle-induced osteolysis without affecting osteoblast function. More importantly, we demonstrated that DHA inhibited breast tumor-induced osteolysis through inhibiting the proliferation, migration and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells via modulating AKT signaling pathway. In conclusion, DHA effectively inhibited osteoclastogenesis and prevented breast cancer-induced osteolysis.

Abstract CC-4047 (Actimid) is an immunomodulatory analog of thalidomide that has stronger anti-myeloma and anti-angiogenic activity than thalidomide, but its effects on human osteoclast lineage are unknown. Early osteoclast progenitors are of hematopoietic origin and progressively differentiate into mature bone resorbing multinucleated osteoclasts. We investigated the effects of CC-4047 and thalidomide on human osteoclastogenesis, using in vitro receptor activator of NFκ-B ligand/M-CSF stimulated culture system of bone marrow cells. Three weeks of treatment of primary bone marrow cultures with 100 μM CC-4047 decreased osteoclast formation accompanied by complete inhibition of bone resorption. Interestingly, osteoclast formation was also inhibited when cultures were treated with CC-4047 only for the first week (90% inhibition). In contrast, inhibitory effect was greatly diminished when the drug was given for only the last week (25% inhibition), indicating that inhibition of osteoclast formation is an early event. The inhibitory effect of CC-4047 on osteoclastogenesis was not induced by cell death, but by a shift of lineage commitment to granulocyte-CFU at the expense of GM-CFU that are osteoclast progenitors. Further studies revealed that this shift is mediated through down regulation of the transcription factor PU.1, which is critical for early osteoclast formation. In contrast to CC-4047, thalidomide was a significantly less potent inhibitor of osteoclast formation and bone resorption. These results provide the first evidence that CC-4047 blocks osteoclast differentiation at the early phase of osteoclastogenesis. Therefore, CC-4047 might be a valuable drug targeting both the tumor and osteoclastic activity in patients with multiple myeloma and potentially other diseases associated with the development of osteolytic lesions.

Background/Aims: Tuberculosis induces bone loss and activates Th1 cells that play an important role in the host defense of Bacille Calmette-Guérin tuberculosis vaccine. However, the role of tuberculosis-activated Th1 cells in differentiation of osteoclast precursors to osteoclasts is unclear. As secretion of IFN-γ in Th1 cells is induced by tuberculosis, we aimed to investigate the role of anti-IFN-γ antibody on the differentiation and activation of osteoclasts in bone marrow monocyte-derived macrophages (BMMs). Methods: BMMs were isolated and co-cultured with CD4+T helper 1 cells (Th1 cells), pretreated with anti-IFN-γ antibody. Then, cell proliferation, expression and release of cytokines, formation of actin ring, differentiation of osteoclasts and bone resorption function were measured by CCK8 assay, qRT-PCR/Western blot/flow cytometry, ELISA, immunofluorescence, tartrate-resistant acidic phosphatase (TRAP) staining and bone absorbance assay, respectively. Results: Anti-IFN-γ antibody inhibited the cell viability of BMMs, and induced the expressions of RANKL, TNF-α, NF-κB and TRAF6 in BMMs. In addition, it led to increased expression levels of RANK on cell surfaces, and increased production of RANKL, TNF-α, MCP-1 and SDF-1. Anti-IFN-γ antibody also induced the expression of osteoclast differentiation factor and actin ring formation, but inhibited the expression of osteoprotegerin. TRAP staining and bone resorption assays showed that anti-IFN-γ antibody induced an increase in osteoclast formation and bone resorption. Conclusion: The anti-IFN-γ antibody induced osteoclast formation, and is probably mediated by RANKL-induced activation of NF-κB, that induces TRAF6 in the RANKL-RANK signaling pathway. Our data suggest an inhibitory role for IFN-γ in osteoclast formation induced by tuberculosis.

And Function

ABSTRACTSeveral reports emphasized the importance of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) in hindering osteoblast differentiation and bone matrix mineralization. Its ubiquitous presence is thought to prevent “soft” tissue calcification, whereas its degradation to Pi in bones and teeth by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) may facilitate crystal growth. While the inhibiting role of PPi on osteoblast differentiation and function is largely understood, less is known about its effects on osteoclast determination and activity. In this study, we investigated the role of PPi in bone resorption using calverial organ cultures ex vivo. We present an evidence that PPi stimulated calvarial bone resorption marked by calcium (Ca2+) release in the condition media (CM). We then examined PPi effects on osteoclast differentiation using mouse bone marrow-derived monocytes (BMMs). Our results revealed that PPi enhanced osteoclast differentiation ex vivo, marked by increased number and size of TRAP-stained mature osteoclasts. Moreover, PPi stimulated osteoclastogenesis in BMMs co-cultured with osteoblasts. These data supported the increased osteoclast activity in bone resorption using functional osteo-assays. The finding of PU.1-Egr-1 dependent up-regulation of c-FMS and RANK receptors in BMMs supported the enhanced pre-osteoclast commitment and differentiation. Moreover, osteoclast survival was enhanced by activation of MITF-BCL-2 pathway that was mediated by MAPK-ERK1/2 signaling. Last, our data showed that PPi up-regulated ANK; PPi transporter, during osteoclast differentiation through ERK1/2 phosphorylation whereas mutation of ANK inhibited osteoclastogenesis. Collectively, our data suggest that PPi promotes osteoclast differentiation, survival, and function through PU.1 up-regulation and MITF phosphorylation whereas ANK loss-of-function inhibited osteoclastogenesis.

Cytoskeleton organization and lysosome secretion play an essential role in osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption. The cytoplasmic dynein is a molecular motor complex that regulates microtubule dynamics and transportation of cargos/organelles, including lysosomes along the microtubules. LIS1, NDE1, and NDEL1 belong to an evolutionary conserved pathway that regulates dynein functions. Disruption of the cytoplasmic dynein complex and deletion of LIS1 in osteoclast precursors arrest osteoclastogenesis. Nonetheless, the role of NDE1 and NDEL1 in osteoclast biology remains elusive. In this study, we found that knocking-down Nde1 expression by lentiviral transduction of specific shRNAs markedly inhibited osteoclastogenesis in vitro by attenuating the proliferation, survival, and differentiation of osteoclast precursor cells via suppression of signaling pathways downstream of M-CSF and RANKL as well as osteoclast differentiation transcription factor NFATc1. To dissect how NDEL1 regulates osteoclasts and bone homeostasis, we generated Ndel1 conditional knockout mice in myeloid osteoclast precursors (Ndel1ΔlysM) by crossing Ndel1-floxed mice with LysM-Cre mice on C57BL/6J background. The Ndel1ΔlysM mice developed normally. The µCT analysis of distal femurs and in vitro osteoclast differentiation and functional assays in cultures unveiled the similar bone mass in both trabecular and cortical bone compartments as well as intact osteoclastogenesis, cytoskeleton organization, and bone resorption in Ndel1ΔlysM mice and cultures. Therefore, our results reveal a novel role of NDE1 in regulation of osteoclastogenesis and demonstrate that NDEL1 is dispensable for osteoclast differentiation and function.
