Calcif Tissue Int 2025; 116:76. [PMID: 40415018 DOI: 10.1007/s00223-025-01386-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2025] [Accepted: 05/05/2025] [Indexed: 05/27/2025]
Abstract
Obesity significantly impacts bone health. The ABSI is an innovative metric for assessing obesity, offering greater accuracy than traditional measures such as body mass index and waist circumference in reflecting visceral fat accumulation. This study aims to investigate the relationship between ABSI and BMD as well as its association with osteoporosis among U.S. adults, utilizing data from the NHANES. This cross-sectional study analyzed data from adults aged 18 years and older, collected during the 2005-2006, 2013-2014, and 2017-2018 cycles of the NHANES. Multivariate linear regression models were used to evaluate the association between ABSI and BMD. Multivariate logistic regression models were applied to assess the relationship between ABSI and osteoporosis. Restricted cubic spline models were employed to evaluate potential nonlinear associations between ABSI and BMD as well as osteoporosis. Additionally, subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses were conducted to ensure the robustness of the findings. A total of 5487 participants were included in the analysis, with a mean age of 47.04 years. ABSI was found to be negatively associated with BMD at the femoral neck, total femur, and lumbar spine. Participants in the highest ABSI quartile exhibited a significantly higher prevalence of osteoporosis compared to those in the lowest quartile (OR = 1.95; 95% CI 1.61-2.26). Nonlinear relationships were observed between ABSI and BMD at the femoral neck, total femur, lumbar spine, and osteoporosis, with inflection points at 8.84, 8.56, 9.23, and 8.14, respectively. Sensitivity analyses confirmed the robustness of these associations. Subgroup analyses revealed significant interactions between ABSI and BMD in smokers (P < 0.05). This study identifies a significant negative association between ABSI and BMD and a positive association with osteoporosis. The nonlinear relationship observed between ABSI and both BMD and osteoporosis underscores the importance of maintaining an optimal ABSI to promote bone health. These findings support the utility of ABSI as a valuable marker for early identification and prevention of osteoporosis, offering actionable insights for clinical and public health strategies. Future longitudinal research is warranted to validate these results and further elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity, bone-related and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are among the leading global health concerns. Growing evidence suggests that these conditions share common pathophysiological pathways and disease outcomes. PATHOGENETIC INTERACTIONS OF OBESITY, CVD AND BONE-RELATED DISEASES: Obesity is a well-established risk factor for atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD), as dysfunctional ectopic adipose tissue may produce endocrine/paracrine hormones modulating metabolic processes and inflammation, predisposing to ASCVD. Although obesityhas been considered a protective factor for bone loss, it may lead to osteoporosis development and increased fracture risk at specific sites. Biological and epidemiological evidence has demonstrated the existence of a dynamic relationship between ASCVD and osteoporosis, since atherosclerotic calcification and bone mineralization share common pathophysiological mechanisms. Therefore, addressing ASCVD, obesity, and bone-related diseases requires multiple-level approach, which involve accurate screening, lifestyle modifications and pharmacological interventions.The current evidence about the pathophysiological relationships between obesity, bone-related diseases and ASCVD is discussed herein, highlighting common risk factors, proposed biomolecular mechanisms, clinical outcomes, lifestyle changes and pharmacological treatments. CONCLUSIONS As populations become increasingly older and obese, understanding the correlation within this triad highlights an unmet clinical need. Applying this knowledge would help to reduce both societal and individual costs, while supporting the development of novel preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to reduce morbidity and disability associated with cardio-metabolic and bone-related diseases.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is a significant global public health concern that requires the development of safe and effective drugs for prevention and treatment. Sugemule-7 (SGML-7) decoction, a traditional Mongolian herbal prescription, has long been used for treating OP, but its components and mechanisms of action remain unclear. The study identified the main compounds of SGML-7 using UHPLC-Q Exactive MS and explored the multi-target mechanisms of SGML-7 in OP through network pharmacology and molecular docking. A retinoic acid (RA)-induced mouse OP model was utilized to confirm the therapeutic effects and potential mechanism of SGML-7. Additionally, mouse pre-osteoblastic (MC3T3-E1) cells treated with SGML-7 medicated serum were employed to delve deeper into the molecular mechanisms. The UHPLC-Q Exactive MS analysis, network pharmacology, and molecular docking suggested that the synergistic effect of multiple active compounds could be the main contributor to SGML-7 for its anti-OP activities. Moreover, MAPK1, JUN, ESR1, TP53, AKT1, NCOA1, FOS, and NR3C1 were identified as potential key targets, and the MAPK signaling pathway was among the signaling pathways possibly involved in the anti-OP activities of SGML-7. Consistent with these findings, experimental studies confirmed that SGML-7 prevented bone loss, enhanced bone quality in OP mice, and promoted osteoblastic activity and bone formation in MC3T3-E1 cells by modulating MAPK-associated targets. Taken together, SGML-7 shows promise as an effective and appealing anti-OP drug candidate.

Abstract
Childhood obesity represents a multifaceted challenge to bone health, influenced by a combination of endocrine, metabolic, and mechanical factors. Excess body fat correlates with an increase in bone mineral density (BMD) yet paradoxically elevates fracture risk due to compromised bone quality and increased mechanical loading on atypical sites. Additionally, subjects with syndromic obesity, as well as individuals with atypical nutritional patterns, including those with eating disorders, show bone fragility through unique genetic and hormonal dysregulations. Emerging evidence underscores the adverse effects of new pharmacological treatments for severe obesity on bone health. Novel drugs, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, and bariatric surgery demonstrate potential in achieving weight loss, though limited evidence is available regarding their short- and long-term impacts on skeletal health. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the mechanisms underlying the impact of childhood obesity on bone health. It critically appraises evidence from in vitro studies, animal models, and clinical research in children with exogenous obesity, syndromic obesity, and eating disorders. It also explores the effects of emerging pharmacological and surgical treatments for severe obesity on skeletal integrity, highlights prevention strategies, and identifies research gaps.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic bone disease characterised by decreased bone mass and a deteriorated bone microstructure, leading to increased bone fragility and fracture risk. Disorders of the intestinal microbiota may be key inducers of osteoporosis. Furthermore, such disorders may contribute to osteoporosis by influencing immune function and lipid metabolism. Therefore, in this review, we aimed to summarise the molecular mechanisms through which the intestinal microbiota affect the onset and development of osteoporosis by regulating Th17/Treg imbalance and lipid metabolism disorders. We also discussed the regulatory mechanisms underlying the effect of intestinal microbiota-related modulators on Th17/Treg imbalance and lipid metabolism disorders in osteoporosis, to explore new molecular targets for its treatment and provide a theoretical basis for clinical management.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Adiponectin replacement therapy shows promising outcomes in various diseases, especially for bone-related disorders. Challenges in using the complete protein have led to alternative approaches, with AdipoRon and AdipoAI emerging as extensively researched drug candidates. Their influence on models of bone-related disorders has progressed considerably but there has been no review of their effectiveness in modulating bone metabolism and repair. METHODS This systematic review seeks to address this knowledge gap. Based on preclinical evidence from PubMed, EMBASE, and COCHRANE, ten studies were included following PRISMA guidelines. The JBI Checklist Critical Appraisal Tool assessed the quality of this systematic review. The studies encompassed various animal models, addressing bone defects, osseointegration, diabetes-associated periodontitis, fracture repair, growth retardation, and diabetes-associated peri-implantitis. RESULTS AdipoRon and AdipoAI demonstrated effectiveness in modulating bone metabolism and repair through diverse pathways, including the activation of AdipoR1/APPL1, inhibition of F-actin ring formation, suppression of IκB-α phosphorylation, p65 nuclear translocation and Wnt5a-Ror2 signaling pathway, reduction of CCL2 secretion and expression, regulation of autophagy via LC3A/B expression, modulation of SDF-1 production, activation of the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, modulation of bone integration-related markers and osteokines such as RANKL, BMP-2, OPG, OPN, and Runx2, inhibition of RANKL in osteoblasts, and inhibition of podosome formation via the activation of AMPK. CONCLUSION While preclinical studies show promise, human trials are crucial to confirm the clinical safety and effectiveness of AdipoRon and AdipoAI. Caution is necessary due to potential off-target effects, especially in bone therapy with multi-target approaches. Structural biology and computational methods can help predict and understand these effects.

Abstract
Objective We hypothesized that the insulin-sensitizing adipokine adiponectin (ADP) is upregulated in cystic fibrosis (CF) related diabetes (CFRD) and underweight adults with CF. We aimed to assess correlations between glucose metabolism, body composition and ADP in CF. Methods We performed a cross-sectional study among adults with CF at the Copenhagen CF Center. The study included a fasting level of ADP, an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and a dual energy-x-ray absorptiometry scan. Results In total, 115 patients were included of whom 104 had an OGTT performed. Glucose intolerance was not correlated with ADP in multivariable analysis, while increased hepatic insulin resistance (i.e., HOMA-IR) was correlated with reduced ADP levels. ADP declined by 4% (eβ 0.96, 95% CI: 0.94, 0.98), 5% (eβ 0.95, 95% CI: 0.93, 0.98), 9% (eβ 0.91, 95% CI: 0.87, 0.95), and 83% (eβ 0.17, 95% CI: 0.08, 0.37) for each one unit (kg/m2) increase in body mass index, fat mass index, muscle mass index, and bone mineral content index, respectively. Conclusions In CF, ADP was negatively correlated with hepatic insulin resistance as well as low fat, muscle, and bone mass, but not with glucose intolerance. This suggests that malnutrition leads to higher ADP levels in CF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between syndesmophytes and facet joint (FJ) lesions in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and to identify clinical factors associated with FJ ankylosis (FJA) in thoracic segment. METHODS Ninety-seven patients with AS who underwent thoracic spine computed tomography (CT) or chest CT and without completely thoracic spine fusion were included. FJ lesions were analyzed for the numbers and distribution of normal, ankylosis, erosions, joint-space narrowing, osteophytes, and subchondral sclerosis. The volume of vertebral syndesmophtes unit (VSU) and total thoracic syndesmophtes volume were separately calculated by Mimics software. Clinical factors associated with FJA were investigated using generalized estimation equation (GEE). The association between syndesmophtes volume and numbers of FJ structural lesions was analyzed using generalized additive mixed model (GAMM). RESULTS 2328 FJ and 1164 VSUs in thoracic spine were assessed. The majority FJ structural lesions were ankylosis (32.39%). FJA was more frequently seen in vertebrae with syndesmophytes formation (p < 0.001). GEE showed that patients with normal BMI (18.5-24.9 kg/m2) and high BMI (> 24.9 kg/m2) were more likely to have FJA in thoracic spine (odds rations [95% confidence interval]: 0.27(0.12-0.59), 1.45(1.03-8.57), respectively). GAMM showed that syndesmophytes volume increase the numbers of FJA (standard β = 0.009, p < 0.05) and decreased the numbers of normal FJ (standard β = -0.07, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION FJA was the most common FJ structural lesion in thoracic spine, and it increases linearly with syndesmophytes before the bridging syndesmophytes formed. A higher BMI (especially > 24.9 kg/m2) and increased syndesmophytes volume are associated with FJA in thoracic spine.

Abstract
Osteoclastic inhibition using antiresorptive bisphosphonates and osteogenic promotion using antisclerostin agents represent two distinct osteoporosis treatments in clinical practice, each individual treatment suffers from unsatisfactory therapeutic efficacy due to its indirect intervention in osteoclasis and promotion of osteogenesis simultaneously. Although this issue is anticipated to be resolved by drug synergism, a tempting carrier-free dual-medication nanoassembly remains elusive. Herein, we prepare such a nanoassembly made of antiresorptive alendronate (ALN) crystal and antisclerostin polyaptamer (Apt) via a nucleic acid-driven crystallization method. This nanoparticle can protect Apt from rapid nuclease degradation, avoid the high cytotoxicity of free ALN, and effectively concentrate in the cancellous bone by virtue of the bone-binding ability of DNA and ALN. More importantly, the acid microenvironment of cancellous bone triggers the disassociation of nanoparticles for sustained drug release, from which ALN inhibits the osteoclast-mediated bone resorption while Apt promotes osteogenic differentiation. Our work represents a pioneering demonstration of nucleic acid-driven crystallization of a bisphosphonate into a tempting carrier-free dual-medication nanoassembly. This inaugural advancement augments the antiosteoporosis efficacy through direct inhibition of osteoclasis and promotion of osteogenesis simultaneously and establishes a paradigm for profound understanding of the underlying synergistic antiosteoporosis mechanism of antiresorptive and antisclerostin components. It is envisioned that this study provides a highly generalizable strategy applicable to the tailoring of a diverse array of DNA-inorganic nanocomposites for targeted regulation of intricate pathological niches.

Bone 2024; 185:117134. [PMID: 38821388 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117134] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2024] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/02/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Obesity and osteoporosis (OP) are receiving increasing attention. Waist circumference (WC) is an effective indicator for assessing central obesity. Currently, there is controversy regarding the relationship between WC and bone mineral density (BMD), as well as OP. Therefore, our study aims to utilize data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to evaluate the relationship between WC and BMD, as well as OP, in US adults. METHODS This cross-sectional study included subjects aged ≥18 years from the NHANES 1999-2018. Multivariate linear regression models were performed to investigate the association between WC and BMD. Multivariate logistic regression models were employed to assess the relationship between WC and OP. Restricted cubic spline curves were used to assess potential nonlinear association between WC and BMD, OP. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed to assess the robustness of the results. RESULTS Finally, 11,165 participants (non-OP, n = 10,465; OP, n = 700) were included in the final analysis. The results showed that WC was positively associated with total femur (TF), femoral neck (FN), and lumbar spine (LS) BMD, and might be a protective factor for OP, independent of traditional confounding factors. For each 1 cm increased in WC, TF BMD, FN BMD and LS BMD increased by 0.004 g/cm2, 0.003 g/cm2 and 0.003 g/cm2, respectively, and the risk of OP decreased by 3.1 %. Furthermore, there was a non-linear relationship between WC and BMD, OP. The association remained robust in sensitivity and subgroup analyses. CONCLUSION In US adults, there is a positive association between WC and BMD, and WC may be a protective factor for the risk of OP. The association between WC and BMD as well as OP exhibits a non-linear relationship.

Diabetol Metab Syndr 2024; 16:175. [PMID: 39054499 PMCID: PMC11270814 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-024-01412-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) plays a crucial role in breaking down various substrates. It also has effects on the insulin signaling pathway, contributing to insulin resistance, and involvement in inflammatory processes like obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Emerging effects of DPP-4 on bone metabolism include an inverse relationship between DPP-4 activity levels and bone mineral density, along with an increased risk of fractures. MAIN BODY The influence of DPP-4 on bone metabolism occurs through two axes. The entero-endocrine-osseous axis involves gastrointestinal substrates for DPP-4, including glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptides 1 (GLP-1) and 2 (GLP-2). Studies suggest that supraphysiological doses of exogenous GLP-2 has a significant inhibitory effect on bone resorption, however the specific mechanism by which GLP-2 influences bone metabolism remains unknown. Of these, GIP stands out for its role in bone formation. Other gastrointestinal DPP-4 substrates are pancreatic peptide YY and neuropeptide Y-both bind to the same receptors and appear to increase bone resorption and decrease bone formation. Adipokines (e.g., leptin and adiponectin) are regulated by DPP-4 and may influence bone remodeling and energy metabolism in a paracrine manner. The pancreatic-endocrine-osseous axis involves a potential link between DPP-4, bone, and energy metabolism through the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL), which induces DPP-4 expression in osteoclasts, leading to decreased GLP-1 levels and increased blood glucose levels. Inhibitors of DPP-4 participate in the pancreatic-endocrine-osseous axis by increasing endogenous GLP-1. In addition to their glycemic effects, DPP-4 inhibitors have the potential to decrease bone resorption, increase bone formation, and reduce the incidence of osteoporosis and fractures. Still, many questions on the interactions between DPP-4 and bone remain unanswered, particularly regarding the effects of DPP-4 inhibition on the skeleton of older individuals. CONCLUSION The elucidation of the intricate interactions and impact of DPP-4 on bone is paramount for a proper understanding of the body's mechanisms in regulating bone homeostasis and responses to internal stimuli. This understanding bears significant implications in the investigation of conditions like osteoporosis, in which disruptions to these signaling pathways occur. Further research is essential to uncover the full extent of DPP-4's effects on bone metabolism and energy regulation, paving the way for novel therapeutic interventions targeting these pathways, particularly in older individuals.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is a major health problem affecting millions of women worldwide. PMOP patients are often accompanied by abnormal accumulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT). BMAT is a critical regulator of bone homeostasis, and an increasing BMAT volume is negatively associated with bone mass reduction or fracture. BMAT regulates bone metabolism via adipokines, cytokines and the immune system, but the specific mechanisms are largely unknown. This review emphasizes the impact of estrogen deficiency on bone homeostasis and BMAT expansion, and the mechanism by which BMAT regulates PMOP, providing a promising strategy for targeting BMAT in preventing and treating PMOP.

Abstract
Bone is a common site of metastasis for lung cancer. The "seed and soil" hypothesis suggests that the bone marrow microenvironment ("soil") may provide a conducive survival environment for metastasizing tumor cells ("seeds"). The bone marrow microenvironment, comprising a complex array of cells, includes bone marrow adipocytes (BMAs), which constitute about 70% of the adult bone marrow volume and may play a significant role in tumor bone metastasis. BMAs can directly provide energy for tumor cells, promoting their proliferation and migration. Furthermore, BMAs participate in the tumor microenvironment's osteogenesis regulation, osteoclast(OC) regulation, and immune response through the secretion of adipokines, cytokines, and inflammatory factors. However, the precise mechanisms of BMAs in lung cancer bone metastasis remain largely unclear. This review primarily explores the role of BMAs and their secreted adipokines (leptin, adiponectin, Nesfatin-1, Resistin, chemerin, visfatin) in lung cancer bone metastasis, aiming to provide new insights into the mechanisms and clinical treatment of lung cancer bone metastasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Observational studies have suggested that type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2) is a potentially modifiable risk factor for lower BMD, but the causal relationship is unclear. This study aimed to examine whether the association of DM2 with lower BMD levels was causal by using Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. METHODS We collected genome-wide association study data for DM2 and BMD of total body and different skeletal sites from the IEU database. Subsequently, we performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis using the Two Sample MR package. RESULTS We identified a positive association between DM2 risk (61,714 DM2 cases and 596,424 controls) and total BMD, and other skeletal sites BMD, such as femoral neck BMD, ultra-distal forearm BMD and heel BMD. However, non-significant trends were observed for the effects of DM2 on lumbar-spine BMD. CONCLUSION In two-sample MR analyses, there was positive causal relationship between DM2 and BMD in both overall samples. In summary, while observational analyses consistently indicate a strong association between DM2 and low BMD, our MR analysis introduces a nuanced perspective. Contrary to the robust association observed in observational studies, our MR analysis suggests a significant link between DM2 and elevated BMD.

Abstract
Adiposity is central to aging and several chronic diseases. Adiposity encompasses not just the excess adipose tissue but also body fat redistribution, fat infiltration, hypertrophy of adipocytes, and the shifting of mesenchymal stem cell commitment to adipogenesis. Bone marrow adipose tissue expansion, inflammatory adipokines, and adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles are central to the development of osteopenic adiposity. Adipose tissue infiltration and local adipogenesis within the muscle are critical in developing sarcopenic adiposity and subsequent poorer functional outcomes. Ultimately, osteosarcopenic adiposity syndrome is the result of all the processes noted above: fat infiltration and adipocyte expansion and redistribution within the bone, muscle, and adipose tissues, resulting in bone loss, muscle mass/strength loss, deteriorated adipose tissue, and subsequent functional decline. Increased fat tissue, typically referred to as obesity and expressed by body mass index (the latter often used inadequately), is now occurring in younger age groups, suggesting people will live longer with the negative effects of adiposity. This review discusses the role of adiposity in the deterioration of bone and muscle, as well as adipose tissue itself. It reveals how considering and including adiposity in the definition and diagnosis of osteopenic adiposity, sarcopenic adiposity, and osteosarcopenic adiposity will help in better understanding the pathophysiology of each and accelerate possible therapies and prevention approaches for both relatively healthy individuals or those with chronic disease.

Abstract
Background The prevalence of 'low bone mineral density (BMD)' in Type 2 diabetes (T2DM), especially stratified by body mass index, is seldom reported. The relation of the euthyroid range and low BMD in T2DM remains to be further elucidated. Objectives We aim to investigate the thyroid hormones' impact on BMD among euthyroid patients with T2DM. Design and methods A total of 1452 hospitalized T2DM patients with normal thyroid function (43.6% males aged over 50 and 56.4% postmenopausal females) were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. BMD was measured at lumbar spine by GE lunar dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry system, and 'low BMD' was defined as T-score <-1.0 SD. The prevalence of 'low BMD' was compared between obese and nonobese (body mass index < 25 kg/m2) groups for both sexes, and the relation of low BMD and free T4 quartiles was explored by multiple logistic regression. Results The general prevalence of 'low BMD' was 12.3% for male patients aged over 50 (15.5% in the nonobese group and 8.0% in the obese group) and 49.8% for postmenopausal females (56.7% in the nonobese group and 48.9% in the obese group). After adjustment in multiple linear regression, free T4 level remained significantly related to decreased BMD in nonobese male subgroup. Multiple logistic regression revealed that BMD of the highest free T4 quartile (1.12-1.48 ng/dL) decreased significantly than other three quartiles after adjusting for confounding factors including age, body mass index, serum calcium and creatinine level, fasting glucose, alkaline phosphatase, glycosylated hemoglobin, total cholesterol, and smoking history (OR = 2.724, 95% CI = 1.085-6.840, p = 0.033). No significant relation was found in obese male or postmenopausal female groups. Conclusion High-normal free T4 is a potential independent risk factor for 'low BMD' in nonobese male T2DM patients aged over 50. Close attention should be paid to thyroid function profile, even within normal range, in nonobese men with underlying higher fracture risks on diabetes status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence exists of a strong association between inflammation and a decrease in skeletal muscle function and bone mineral density (BMD); however, the specific mechanisms of these associations remain unclear. Adipokines, as key regulators of the inflammatory response, may be implicated in these processes. The objective of this study was to explore the potential correlation between adipokines, skeletal muscle function and BMD in middle-aged and elderly individuals. METHODS A comparative cross-sectional study was carried out at the Huadong Hospital Affiliated with Fudan University (Shanghai, China). A total of 460 middle-aged and elderly individuals were recruited, and 125 were enrolled in the analysis. Their biochemical indices, body composition, skeletal muscle function and BMD were measured. Bioinformatic analysis was also employed to identify potential adipokine targets linked to skeletal muscle function and BMD. To validate these targets, plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were harvested from these individuals and subjected to western blotting (WB) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS Individuals in this cross-sectional study were categorized into 2 groups according to their median skeletal muscle mass (SMM) (28.8 kg for males and 20.6 kg for females). Individuals with lower SMM exhibited poorer grip strength (P = 0.017), longer 5-Times-Sit-to-Stand Test (FTSST) duration (P = 0.029), lower total hip BMD (P = 0.043), lower femoral neck BMD (P = 0.011) and higher levels of inflammatory markers in comparison with individuals with higher SMM. Bioinformatics analysis identified LEP, ADIPOQ, RBP4, and DPP4 as potential adipokine targets associated with skeletal muscle function and BMD. In vitro experiments demonstrated that individuals with decreased skeletal muscle function and BMD expressed higher levels of these adipokines. CONCLUSIONS Skeletal muscle function is positively correlated with BMD and negatively correlated with levels of inflammatory markers among middle-aged and elderly individuals. Those with lower skeletal muscle function and BMD tend to have a higher expression of LEP, ADIPOQ, RBP4 and DPP4.

Abstract
The relationship between the accumulation of fat in visceral or subcutaneous tissue and bone mineral density (BMD) remains unclear. Our primary objective in this study was to illuminate this relationship by conducting an investigation on a vast scale, encompassing a nationally representative population in the United States. A weighted multiple linear regression model was established to evaluate the relationship between visceral fat, subcutaneous fat, and BMD. Additionally, the exploration of the potential nonlinear relationship was conducted employing the methodology of smooth curve fitting. In order to determine potential inflection points, a two-stage linear regression model was utilized. A total of 10,455 participants between the ages of 20 and 59 were included in this study. Various weighted multiple linear regression models revealed a negative correlation between lumbar BMD and visceral mass index (VMI) and subcutaneous mass index (SMI). However, the association between VMI and lumbar BMD displayed a U-shaped pattern upon employing the smooth curve fitting, and the inflection point of 0.304 kg/m2was determined using a two-stage linear regression model. Our findings indicated a negative association between subcutaneous fat and BMD. A U-shaped relationship was observed between visceral fat and BMD.

Abstract
White adipose tissue (WAT) is not only an energy storage reservoir that is critical in energy homeostasis but is also a highly metabolically active endocrine organ. WAT can secrete a variety of adipocytokines, including leptin (LEP), adiponectin (APN), resistin, visfatin, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and osteopontin (OPN). It can also synthesize and secrete exosomes, which enhance intercellular communication and participate in various physiological processes in the body. It can also synthesize and secrete exosomes to enhance intercellular communication and participate in a variety of physiological processes in the body. The skeleton is an important organ for protecting internal organs. It forms the scaffolding of the body and gives the body its basic form. It drives muscle contraction to produce movement under the regulation of the nervous system. It is also an important hematopoietic organ; and it is regulated by the cytokines secreted by WAT. As research related to the release of adipocytokines from WAT to affect the skeleton continues to progress, an inextricable link between bone lipid regulation has been identified. In this paper, we review the literature to summarize the structure, function and metabolism of WAT, elaborate the specific molecular mechanisms by which WAT-secreted hormones, cytokines and exosomes regulate skeletal cells, provide a theoretical basis for the in-depth study of WAT cross-organ regulation of bone, and provide new ideas for finding new adipose-secreted targeting factors for the treatment of skeletal diseases.

Drug Des Devel Ther 2023; 17:519-534. [PMID: 36845667 PMCID: PMC9946814 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s391606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Bone dysfunction is a crucial problem that occurs during rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease. Osteoclast plays a significant role in bone resorption and osteoclast differentiation and its enhancement of bone destruction. Edaravone remarkably exhibited free radical scavenging and anti-inflammatory effects. The objective of the current investigation is to comfort the inhibitory effect of Edaravone (ED) against complete Freund adjuvant (CFA) rat model via inhibition of angiogenesis and inflammation. Methods Subcutaneous injection of CFA (1%) was used to induce arthritis; the rats were divided into different groups and received the oral administration of ED. Paw edema, body weight, and arthritis score were regularly estimated. Biochemical parameters were estimated, respectively. We also estimate the level of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), angiopoietin 1 (ANG-1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). We also checked into how ED affected the differentiation of osteoclasts utilising a co-culture system with monocytes and synovial fibroblasts in arthritis rats. Results ED treatment significantly (P<0.001) suppressed the arthritis score and paw edema and improved the body weight. ED treatment significantly (P<0.001) altered the antioxidant parameters and pro-inflammatory cytokines: inflammatory mediator nuclear kappa B factor (NF-κB), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), respectively. Furthermore, ED treatment significantly (P<0.001) suppressed the level of ANG-1, HIF-1α, and VEGF, respectively. The results suggest that ED suppressed osteoclast differentiation and also decreased the level of cytokines and osteopontin (OPN), receptor activator for nuclear factor-κ B Ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) in the co-culture supernatant of monocytes and synovial fibroblasts. Conclusion Edaravone could mitigate CFA via inhibiting angiogenesis and inflammatory reactions, which may be linked with the HIF-1α-VEGF-ANG-1 axis and also enhance the bone destruction of murine arthritis via suppression of osteoclast differentiation and inflammatory reaction.

The Influence of Adipokines on Radiographic Damage in Inflammatory Rheumatic Diseases. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11020536.

Abstract
Inflammatory rheumatic diseases (IRDs) are complex immune-mediated diseases that are characterized by chronic inflammation of the joints. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and spondyloarthritis (SpA), including axial SpA (ax SpA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA), are the most common forms of IRD. Both RA and ax SpA are characterized by a chronic course with progressive structural modifications, namely, cartilage damage and bone erosions in RA and osteoproliferative changes with spinal ossifications in ax SpA. The adipose tissue is involved in the pathophysiology of IRDs via the release of several proteins, namely, adipokines. Several adipokines with pro-inflammatory effects have been identified, such as leptin, adiponectin, visfatin and resistin. In this review, we discuss the role that adipokines may play in the structural modifications of the peripheral joints and/or axial skeleton. In RA, the role of leptin in structural damage remains controversial, while adiponectin and its high-molecular-weight isoform are known to have an influence on the development of bone erosions and radiographic progression. Resistin also appears to be a potent detrimental adipokine for the joints in RA. In ax SpA, visfatin seems to be an attractive candidate for radiographic progression, while leptin and adiponectin have negative effects on radiographic progression.

Abstract
The expression profiles of exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) are regulated by the microenvironment, and appropriate priming with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is one of the strategies to enhance the paracrine potency of MSCs. Our previous work demonstrated that exosomes from tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-primed human gingiva-derived MSCs (GMSCs) could be a therapeutic tool against periodontitis, and that TNFα-inducible exosomal miR-1260b is essential for the inhibition of alveolar bone loss. However, the precise molecular mechanism underlying miR-1260b-mediated inhibition of osteoclastogenesis is not yet fully understood. Here, we found that the activating transcription factor (ATF)-6β, a novel miR-1260b-targeting gene, is critical for the regulation of osteoclastogenesis under endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. An experimental periodontal mouse model demonstrated that induction of ER stress was accompanied by enhanced ATF6β expression, and local administration of miR-1260b and ATF6β siRNA using polyethylenimine nanoparticles (PEI-NPs) significantly suppressed the periodontal bone resorption. In periodontal ligament (PDL) cells, the ER stress inducer, tunicamycin, enhanced the expression of the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), while miR-1260b-mediated downregulation of ATF6β caused RANKL inhibition. Furthermore, the secretome from miR-1260b/ATF6β-axis-activated PDL cells inhibited osteoclastogenesis in human CD14+ peripheral blood-derived monocytes. These results indicate that the miR-1260b/ATF6β axis mediates the regulation of ER stress, which may be used as a novel therapeutic strategy to treat periodontal disease.

Abstract
Adipokines are the principal mediators in adipose signaling. Nevertheless, besides their role in energy storage, these molecules can be produced by other cells, such as immune cells or chondrocytes. Given their pleiotropic effects, research over the past few years has also focused on musculoskeletal diseases, showing that these adipokines might have relevant roles in worsening the disease or improving the treatment response. In this review, we summarize recent advances in our understanding of adipokines and their role in the most prevalent musculoskeletal immune and inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional malformation of the spine of unknown cause that develops between 10 and 18 years old and affects 2-3% of adolescents, mostly girls. It has been reported that girls with AIS have a taller stature, lower body mass index (BMI), and bone mineral density (BMD) than their peers, but the causes remain unexplained. Energy metabolism discrepancies, including alterations in adipokine and incretin circulatory levels, could influence these parameters and contribute to disease pathophysiology. This pilot study aims to compare the anthropometry, BMD, and metabolic profile of 19 AIS girls to 19 age-matched healthy controls. Collected data include participants' fasting metabolic profile, anthropometry (measurements and DXA scan), nutritional intake, and physical activity level. AIS girls (14.8 ± 1.7 years, Cobb angle 27 ± 10°), compared to controls (14.8 ± 2.1 years), were leaner (BMI-for-age z-score ± SD: -0.59 ± 0.81 vs. 0.09 ± 1.11, p = 0.016; fat percentage: 24.4 ± 5.9 vs. 29.2 ± 7.2%, p = 0.036), had lower BMD (total body without head z-score ± SD: -0.6 ± 0.83 vs. 0.23 ± 0.98, p = 0.038; femoral neck z-score: -0.54 ± 1.20 vs. 0.59 ± 1.59, p = 0.043), but their height was similar. AIS girls had higher adiponectin levels [56 (9-287) vs. 32 (7-74) μg/mL, p = 0.005] and lower leptin/adiponectin ratio [0.042 (0.005-0.320) vs. 0.258 (0.024-1.053), p = 0.005]. AIS participants with a Cobb angle superior to 25° had higher resistin levels compared to controls [98.2 (12.8-287.2) vs. 32.1 (6.6-73.8), p = 0.0013]. This pilot study suggests that adipokines are implicated in AIS development and/or progression, but more work is needed to confirm their role in the disease.

Abstract
Recent scientific evidence has shown an increased risk of fractures in patients with obesity, especially in those with a higher visceral adipose tissue content. This contradicts the old paradigm that obese patients were more protected than those with normal weight. Specifically, in older subjects in whom there is a redistribution of fat from subcutaneous adipose tissue to visceral adipose tissue and an infiltration of other tissues such as muscle with the consequent sarcopenia, obesity can accentuate the changes characteristic of this age group that predisposes to a greater risk of falls and fractures. Other factors that determine a greater risk in older subjects with obesity are chronic proinflammatory status, altered adipokine secretion, vitamin D deficiency, insulin resistance and reduced mobility. On the other hand, diagnostic tests may be influenced by obesity and its comorbidities as well as by body composition, and risk scales may underestimate the risk of fractures in these patients. Weight loss with physical activity programs and cessation of high-fat diets may reduce the risk. Finally, more research is needed on the efficacy of anti-osteoporotic treatments in obese patients.

Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12050654.

Abstract
Simple Summary Nesfatin-1 is an adipokine with little known effect on the skeletal system. In this study, we examined the effect of 8-wk administration of nesfatin-1 on densitometric, tomographic, and mechanical parameters of bones, as well as the concentration of bone metabolism markers in rats with experimentally induced established osteopenia. Abstract Our study aimed to evaluate the impact of nesfatin-1 administration on bone metabolism and properties in established osteopenia in ovariectomized female rats. In total, 21 female Wistar rats were assigned to two groups: sham-operated (SHAM, n = 7) and ovariectomized (OVA, n = 14). After 12 weeks of osteopenia induction in the OVA females, the animals were given i.p. physiological saline (OVA, n = 7) or 2 µg/kg body weight of nesfatin-1(NES, n = 7) for the next 8 weeks. The SHAM animals received physiological saline at the same time. Final body weight, total bone mineral density and content of the skeleton were estimated. Then, isolated femora and tibias were subjected to densitometric, tomographic, and mechanical tests. Bone metabolism markers, i.e., osteocalcin, bone specific alkaline phosphatase (bALP), and crosslinked N-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (NTx) were determined in serum using an ELISA kit. Ovariectomy led to negative changes in bone metabolism associated with increased resorption, thus diminishing the densitometric, tomographic, and mechanical parameters. In turn, the administration of nesfatin-1 led to an increase in the value of the majority of the tested parameters of bones. The lowest bALP concentration and the highest NTx concentration were found in the OVA females. The bALP concentration was significantly higher after nesfatin-1 administration in comparison to the OVA rats. In conclusion, the results indicate that nesfatin-1 treatment limits bone loss, preserves bone architecture, and increases bone strength in condition of established osteopenia.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery (BS) is the most effective therapy for severe obesity, which improves several comorbidities (such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, among others) and results in marked weight loss. Despite these consensual beneficial effects, sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (the two main bariatric techniques) have also been associated with changes in bone metabolism and progressive bone loss. The objective of this literature review is to examine the impact of bariatric surgery on bone and its main metabolic links, and to analyze the latest findings regarding the risk of fracture among patients submitted to bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a bone-related disease that results from impaired bone formation and excessive bone resorption. The potential value of adipokines has been investigated previously, due to their influence on osteogenesis. However, the osteogenic effects induced by omentin-1 remain unclear. The aim of the present study was to determine the regulatory effects of omentin-1 on osteoblast viability and differentiation, as well as to explore the underlying molecular mechanism. The present study investigated the effects of omentin-1 on the viability and differentiation of mouse pre-osteoblast cells (MC3T3-E1) using quantitative and qualitative measures. A Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was used to assess the viability of MC3T3-E1 cells following treatment with different doses of omentin-1. Omentin-1 and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) inhibitor were added to osteogenic induction mediums in different ways to assess their effect. The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and Alizarin Red S (ARS) staining of MC3T3-E1 cells treated with omentin-1 and/or BMP inhibitor were used to examine the effects of omentin-1 on differentiation and mineralization. Western blotting was used to further explore its potential mechanism, and to study the role of omentin-1 on the viability and differentiation of osteoblasts. The results showed that omentin-1 altered the viability of MC3T3-E1 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Omentin-1 treatment significantly increased the expression of members of the TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway. In the omentin-1 group, the ALP activity of the MC3T3-E1 cells was increased, and the ARS staining area was also increased. The mRNA and protein expression levels of BMP2, Runt-related transcription factor 2, collagen1, osteopontin, osteocalcin and osterix in the omentin-1 group were also significantly upregulated. All these effects were reversed following treatment with SIS3 HCl. These results demonstrated that omentin-1 can significantly promote osteoblast viability and differentiation via the TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway, thereby promoting bone formation and preventing osteoporosis.

Body Composition as a Modulator of Bone Health Changes in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12020272. [PMID: 35207559 PMCID: PMC8875340 DOI: 10.3390/life12020272] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2021] [Revised: 02/09/2022] [Accepted: 02/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Bone impairment of multifactorial etiology is a common feature in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Body composition parameters, which might be selectively modified in these patients, are important determinants of bone strength. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between components of body composition and bone parameters in IBD patients. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, retrospective study including 80 IBD patients (43 women, 37 men). Lumbar spine (LS), femoral neck (FN) and whole body DXA scans were performed to analyze regional bone mineral density (BMD), as well as body composition, including appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI), total and visceral fat mass (VAT). Trabecular bone score (TBS) was assessed using iNsight Software. Results: Twenty (25%) IBD patients had inadequate LS-BMD z scores (<=−2DS). Lean mass (LM) was a significant determinant of LS-BMD, after adjusting for age, gender, BMI and fat mass (p < 0.01), while fat mass% remained associated with FN-BMD (p < 0.01). TBS correlated positively with BMI (r = 0.24, p < 0.05), LS-BMD (r = 0.56, p < 0.001), ASMI (r = 0.34, p < 0.001) and negatively with VAT/total fat% (r = −0.27, p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that ASMI, LS-BMD (positively) and VAT/total fat% (negatively) were independently associated with TBS. Conclusions: In IBD patients, skeletal muscle mass and fat percentage and distribution are important factors associated with bone health.

Abstract
Circulating adiponectin has some association with the risk of osteoporosis and cancers, but their causal relationships remains elusive. Mendelian randomization (MR) study was used to explore the causal roles of circulating adiponectin in osteoporosis and cancers by using genome-wide association studies (GWASs) associated with circulating adiponectin, osteoporosis and cancers. Fifteen single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were used as instrumental variables for circulating adiponectin. Genetic predisposition to high circulating adiponectin was strongly associated with low femoral neck bone mineral density (FN-BMD, beta-estimate: -0.015, 95% CI: -0.023 to -0.006, SE: 0.004, P-value = 0.001), low forearm BMD (FA-BMD, beta-estimate: -0.027, 95% CI: -0.050 to -0.004, SE: 0.012, P-value = 0.023) and increased risk of breast cancer (beta-estimate: 0.011, 95% CI: 0.001 to 0.022, SE: 0.005, P-value = 0.031). There was limited evidence of the associations between circulating adiponectin and other outcomes (i.e. lumbar spine BMD [LS-BMD], colorectal cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, bone cancer and prostate cancer). This study provides robust evidence that high circulating adiponectin is causally associated with low FN-BMD, low FA-BMD and increased risk of breast cancer, which may provide new insight to prevent and treat osteoporosis and breast cancer.

Abstract
Obesity is a global health challenge that warrants effective treatments to avoid its multiple comorbidities. Bariatric surgery, a cornerstone treatment to control bodyweight excess and relieve the health-related burdens of obesity, can promote accelerated bone loss and affect skeletal strength, particularly after malabsorptive and mixed surgical procedures, and probably after restrictive surgeries. The increase in bone resorption markers occurs early and persist for up to 12 months or longer after bariatric surgery, while bone formation markers increase but to a lesser extent, suggesting a potential uncoupling process between resorption and formation. The skeletal response to bariatric surgery, as investigated by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), has shown significant loss in bone mineral density (BMD) at the hip with less consistent results for the lumbar spine. Supporting DXA studies, analyses by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) showed lower cortical density and thickness, higher cortical porosity, and lower trabecular density and number for up to 5 years after bariatric surgery. These alterations translate into an increased risk of fall injury, which contributes to increase the fracture risk in patients who have been subjected to bariatric surgery procedures. As bone deterioration continues for years following bariatric surgery, the fracture risk does not seem to be dependent on acute weight loss but, rather, is a chronic condition with an increasing impact over time. Among the post-bariatric surgery mechanisms that have been claimed to act globally on bone health, there is evidence that micro- and macro-nutrient malabsorptive factors, mechanical unloading and changes in molecules partaking in the crosstalk between adipose tissue, bone and muscle may play a determining role. Given these circumstances, it is conceivable that bone health should be adequately investigated in candidates to bariatric surgery through bone-specific work-up and dedicated postsurgical follow-up. Specific protocols of nutrients supplementation, motor activity, structured rehabilitative programs and, when needed, targeted therapeutic strategies should be deemed as an integral part of post-bariatric surgery clinical support.

Adiponectin receptors by increasing mitochondrial biogenesis and respiration promote osteoblast differentiation: Discovery of isovitexin as a new class of small molecule adiponectin receptor modulator with potential osteoanabolic function. Eur J Pharmacol 2021; 913:174634.

Abstract
Previously, we established adiponectin receptors (AdipoRs) as osteoanabolic target. To discover small molecule agonists of AdipoRs, we studied apigenin and apigenin-6C-glucopyranose (isovitexin) that induced osteoblast differentiation. In-silico, in vitro and omics-based studies were performed. Molecular docking using the crystal structures of AdipoRs showed different interaction profiles of isovitexin and apigenin. In osteoblasts, isovitexin but not apigenin rapidly phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase (pAMPK) which is downstream of AdipoRs and a master regulator of cellular energy metabolism, and upregulated expression of AdipoRs. Blocking AMPK abolished the osteogenic effect of isovitexin and its effect on AdipoR expression. Isovitexin upregulated the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α), the mitochondrial biogenesis factor in osteoblasts, and the effect was blocked by AMPK inhibition. Upregulation of PGC-1α by isovitexin was accompanied by increased mitochondrial membrane proteins and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Isovitexin via AdipoRs and PGC-1α induced oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) and ATP synthesis that resulted in osteoblast differentiation. Isovitexin had no agonistic/antagonistic activity and stimulatory/inhibitory effect in screening platforms for G protein-coupled receptors and kinases, respectively. In vivo, isovitexin upregulated AdipoRs and osteogenic genes, and increased mtDNA in rat calvarium. We conclude that isovitexin selectively via AdipoRs induced osteoblast differentiation that was fuelled by mitochondrial respiration.

Abstract
Background Fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) is an adipokine that was mainly derived from adipocytes and macrophages. Vascular calcification (VC) is highly prevalent in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients and could predict their cardiovascular mortality. The pathogenesis of VC is complex, and adipokines may play an important role in it. This study aimed to examine the relationship between serum FABP4 and VC in PD patients. Methods Serum FABP4 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. According to the median value of serum FABP4, the participants were divided into the low FABP4 group and the high FABP4 group. Lateral plain X-ray films of abdomen were used to evaluate the abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) score. The participants were divided into the high AAC score group (AAC score ≥4, indicating moderate or heavy VC) and the low AAC score group (AAC score <4, indicating no or mild VC). Results 116 PD patients were involved in the study. The AAC score and the proportion of patients with an AAC score ≥4 of the high FABP4 group were significantly higher than those of the low FABP4 group. Serum FABP4 of the high AAC score group was significantly higher than that of the low AAC score group [164.5 (138.4, 362.8) ng/mL versus 144.7 (123.8, 170.1) ng/mL, p = 0.002]. Serum FABP4 was positively associated with the AAC score according to the multivariate linear regression analysis. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, serum FABP4 was the independent influencer of an AAC score ≥4. Conclusions Serum FABP4 is positively associated with the AAC score and is an independent marker of AAC in PD patients.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is a delicate physiological process. Non-union and delayed fracture healing remains a great challenge in clinical practice nowadays. Bone and fat hold a close relationship to remain balanced through hormones and cytokines. Adiponectin is a well-known protein to maintain the hemostasis, which may be an interesting target for fracture healing. Herein, we provided a facile and efficient method to obtain high-purity and high-yield recombinant human adiponectin (ADPN). The biocompatibility and the pharmaceutical behaviors were evaluated in Sprague–Dawley rats. The paracrine effects of adiponectin on bone fracture healing were investigated with a rat tibia fracture model via intrabone injection. Significantly accelerated bone healing was observed in the medulla injection group, indicating the paracrine effects of adiponectin could be potentially utilized for clinical treatments. The underlying mechanism was primarily assessed, and the expression of osteogenic markers, including bone morphogenic protein 2, alkaline phosphatase, and osteocalcin, along with adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1), was markedly increased at the fracture site. The increased bone healing of ADPN treatment may result from both enhanced osteogenic proliferation as well as differentiation. Cell experiments confirmed that the expression of osteogenesis markers increased significantly in ADPN treatment groups, while it decreased when the expression of AdipoR1 was knocked down by siRNA. Our study provided a feasible and efficacious way for bone fracture treatment with local administration of ADPN, which could be rapidly translated into the clinics.

Abstract
Congenital Generalized Lipodystrophy (CGL) is a rare syndrome characterized by the almost total absence of subcutaneous adipose tissue due to the inability of storing lipid in adipocytes. Patients present generalized lack of subcutaneous fat and normal to low weight. They evolve with severe metabolic disorders, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, early cardiac abnormalities, and infectious complications. Although low body weight is a known risk factor for osteoporosis, it has been reported that type 1 and 2 CGL have a tendency of high bone mineral density (BMD). In this review, we discuss the role of bone marrow tissue, adipokines, and insulin resistance in the setting of the normal to high BMD of CGL patients. Data bases from Pubmed and LILACS were searched, and 113 articles published until 10 April 2021 were obtained. Of these, 76 were excluded for not covering the review topic. A manual search for additional literature was performed using the bibliographies of the studies located. The elucidation of the mechanisms responsible for the increase in BMD in this unique model of insulin resistance may contribute to the understanding of the interrelationships between bone, muscle, and adipose tissue in a pathophysiological and therapeutic perspective.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Bone is the second most frequent site of metastasis for HCC, which leads to an extremely poor prognosis. HCC bone metastasis is typically osteolytic, involving the activation of osteoclasts. Long noncoding RNA H19 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of human cancers. Nonetheless, the mechanism underlying the participation of H19 in HCC bone metastasis remains unclear. APPROACH AND RESULTS The current study established a mouse HCC bone metastasis model by using serial intracardiac injection and cell isolation to obtain cells with distinct bone metastasis ability. H19 was highly expressed in these cells and in clinical HCC bone metastasis specimens. Both osteoclastogenesis in vitro and HCC bone metastasis in vivo were promoted by H19 overexpression, whereas these processes were suppressed by H19 knockdown. H19 overexpression attenuated p38 phosphorylation and further down-regulated the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG), also known as osteoclastogenesis inhibitory factor. However, up-regulated OPG expression as well as suppressed osteoclastogenesis caused by H19 knockdown were recovered by p38 interference, indicating that p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-OPG contributed to H19-promoted HCC bone metastasis. Furthermore, we demonstrated that H19 inhibited the expression of OPG by binding with protein phosphatase 1 catalytic subunit alpha (PPP1CA), which dephosphorylates p38. SB-203580-mediated inactivation of p38MAPK reversed the down-regulation of HCC bone metastasis caused by H19 knockdown in vivo. Additionally, H19 enhanced cell migration and invasion by up-regulating zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 through the sequestration of microRNA (miR) 200b-3p. CONCLUSIONS H19 plays a critical role in HCC bone metastasis by reducing OPG expression, which is mediated by the PPP1CA-induced inactivation of the p38MAPK pathway; and H19 also functions as a sponge for miR-200b-3p.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Adiponectin signalling has been considered to be a promising target to treat diabetes-related osteoporosis. However, contradictory results regarding bone formation were observed due to the various isoforms of adiponectin. Therefore, it would be necessary to investigate the effect of adiponectin receptor signals in regulating bone-fat balance. MATERIALS AND METHODS We primarily applied a newly found specific activator for adiponectin receptor, AdipoRon, to treat bone metabolism-related cells to investigate the role of Adiponectin receptor signals on bone-fat balance. We then established femur defect mouse model and treated them with AdipoRon to see whether adiponectin receptor activation could promote bone regeneration. RESULTS We found that AdipoRon could slightly inhibit the proliferation of pre-osteoblast and pre-osteoclast, but AdipoRon showed no effect on the viability of mesenchymal stromal cells. AdipoRon could remarkably promote cell migration of mesenchymal stromal cells. Additionally, AdipoRon promoted osteogenesis in both pre-osteoblasts and mesenchymal cells. Besides, AdipoRon significantly inhibited osteoclastogenesis via its direct impact on pre-osteoclast and its indirect inhibition of RANKL in osteoblast. Moreover, mesenchymal stromal stems cells showed obviously decreased adipogenesis when treated with AdipoRon. Consistently, AdipoRon-treated mice showed faster bone regeneration and repressed adipogenesis. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated a pro-osteogenic, anti-adipogenic and anti-osteoclastogenic effect of adiponectin receptor activation in young mice, which suggested adiponectin receptor signalling was involved in bone regeneration and bone-fat balance regulation.

J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2021; 106:e1968-e1983. [PMID: 33522577 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgab023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
CONTEXT The relationship between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the risk of fracture is a matter of debate. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to determine the impact of MetS and its components on the risk of hospitalized fractures, during a median follow-up of 15.9 years. METHODS A total of 7,520 participants (4,068 women) 30 years or older entered the study. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression were applied for data analysis. RESULTS The prevalence of MetS was 40.0% and 40.4% in men and women, respectively. During the follow-up, hospitalized fracture was observed in 305 cases (men = 152). The multivariable hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of MetS for incident fracture for men and women was 0.72 (0.49-1.05, P = .08) and 1.38 (0.96-1.98, P = .08), respectively. In the fully adjusted model, high fasting plasma glucose (FPG) among men tended to be associated with a lower risk of fracture [0.67 (0.44-1.02, P = .06)]; among women, high waist circumference (WC) was associated with a greater risk [2.40 (1.55-3.73)]. Among the population 50 years and older in the pooled sample, MetS was not accompanied by the risk of fracture, but high WC was associated with a higher risk [1.58 (1.07-2.33)]. For incident hip/pelvic fracture, abdominal obesity-but not MetS per se-was also a strong and independent risk factor. CONCLUSION A significant sex difference in the association between MetS and its components with incident fracture was observed. Women with central adiposity were at increased risk of hospitalized fracture, whereas men with high FPG were at decreased risk.

Abstract
Olive leaves are rich in bioactive substances which exert anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, insulin-sensitizing and antihypertensive effects. The aim of this study was to analyze the possible beneficial effects of an olive leaf extract (OLE) rich in secoiridoids and phenolic compounds on the aging-induced metabolic and vascular alterations. Three experimental groups of rats were used: 3-month-old rats, 24-month-old rats and 24-month-old rats supplemented 21 days with OLE (100 mg/kg). Administration of OLE to aged rats decreased the weight of adrenal glands and prevented the aging-induced loss of body weight and muscle mass. In the serum, OLE reduced the circulating levels of LDL-cholesterol and IL-6 and increased the concentrations of leptin and adiponectin. In the liver OLE attenuated the decreased gene expression of SOD-1, GSR, GCK and GSK-3β and reduced the aging-induced overexpression of NOX-4, Alox-5, iNOS and TNF-α. In aorta segments, OLE prevented endothelial dysfunction and vascular insulin resistance and improved vasoconstriction in response to KCl and NA. Improvement in vascular function was associated with the attenuation of the alterations in the gene expression of COX-2, IL-6, GPx, NOX-1 and IL-10. In conclusion, OLE exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects in aged rats and attenuates the alterations in vascular function associated with aging.

Abstract
PURPOSE Metabolic surgery and lifestyle intervention are two common methods used to treat obesity, but the effects of weight loss on bone mineral density (BMD) remain controversial. Our aim was to evaluate changes in BMD of the total hip, femoral neck, and lumbar spine after weight loss caused by metabolic surgery or lifestyle intervention. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library to identify relevant studies published before 5 August 2020. The primary outcomes, including the BMD of the total hip, femoral neck, and lumbar spine before and 12 months after metabolic surgery or lifestyle intervention, were extracted. RESULTS A total of 19 studies with 1095 participants with obesity were included. Among them, 603 participants with obesity accepted metabolic surgery, while 492 accepted lifestyle intervention. At 12 months after weight loss, the BMD of the total hip decreased significantly in obese patients (mean difference [MD] = 0.06 g/cm2; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.03 to 0.08; I2 = 67%; P < 0.001), while the BMD of the lumbar spine did not significantly change (P > 0.05). In the subgroup analysis, the BMD of the femoral neck decreased significantly at 12 months in obese patients who underwent metabolic surgery (MD = 0.08 g/cm2; 95% CI 0.04 to 0.13; I2 = 84%; P < 0.001), while it did not significantly change in obese patients who underwent lifestyle treatment (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Regardless of whether the patients underwent metabolic surgery or lifestyle treatment, the BMD of the total hip significantly decreased in obese patients after weight loss. Different methods used to lose weight may have different effects on the BMD of the femoral neck. Prospective studies, preferably randomized controlled trials (RCTs), are still required to investigate whether the effects of the two treatments on bone metabolism are truly different.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of obesity on the tissue and molecular reactions of alveolar bone in response to orthodontic force and its underlying mechanisms. METHODS Sixty-four rats were randomly divided into normal diet (ND) and high-fat diet (HFD) groups for eight weeks of dietary treatment. OTM was induced using nickel-titanium springs between the upper left first molar and incisor. After 1, 3, 7, and 14 days of OTM, the maxillary alveolar bone and gingival tissues were harvested and analyzed. RESULTS Compared with the ND rats, the HFD rats had greater OTM distance, serum levels of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), as well as significant alveolar bone loss and bone architecture deterioration on both the compression and tension sides (p < .05 for all). This response was linked to the increased osteoclast numbers and functional activity and decreased osteoblast activity in the periodontal ligament, gingival tissue, and alveolar bone. CONCLUSIONS HFD-induced obesity promoted mechanically induced alveolar bone remodeling and detrimental changes in alveolar bone microstructure by increasing osteoclastogenesis and regulating inflammatory cytokine expression. The increased alveolar bone remodeling in the obese rats lead to an accelerated OTM.

Abstract
The vertebrate body plan is characterized by the presence of a segmented spine along its main axis. Here, we examine the current understanding of how the axial tissues that are formed during embryonic development give rise to the adult spine and summarize recent advances in the field, largely focused on recent studies in zebrafish, with comparisons to amniotes where appropriate. We discuss recent work illuminating the genetics and biological mechanisms mediating extension and straightening of the body axis during development, and highlight open questions. We specifically focus on the processes of notochord development and cerebrospinal fluid physiology, and how defects in those processes may lead to scoliosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Little is known about the long-term skeletal impact of bariatric procedures, particularly the increasingly commonly performed gastric sleeve surgery (GS). We examined bone density (BMD) change following three types of bariatric surgery Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), GS and laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB), compared with diet, over 36 months. METHODS Non-randomized, prospective study of participants with severe obesity (n = 52), undergoing weight-loss interventions: RYGB (n = 7), GS (n = 21), LAGB (n = 11) and diet (n = 13). Measurements of calciotropic indices, gut hormones (fasting and post prandial) peptide YY (PYY), glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) and adiponectin together with dual-X-ray absorptiometry and quantitative computed tomography scans were performed thorough the study. RESULTS All groups lost weight during the first 12 months. Despite weight stability from 12 to 36 months and supplementation of calcium and vitamin D, there was progressive bone loss at the total hip (TH) over 36 months in RYGB -14% (95% CI: -12, -17) and GS -9% (95% CI: -7, -10). In RYGB forearm BMD also declined over 36 months -9% (95% CI: -6, -12) and LS BMD declined over the first 12 months -7% (95% CI: -3, -12). RYGB and GS groups experienced significantly greater bone loss until 36 months than LAGB and diet groups, which experienced no significant BMD loss. These bone losses remained significant after adjustment for weight loss and age. RYGB and GS procedures resulted in elevated postprandial PYY, adiponectin and bone turnover markers up to 36 months without such changes among LAGB and diet participants. CONCLUSIONS RYGB and GS but not LAGB resulted in ongoing TH bone loss for three postoperative years. For RYGB, bone loss was also observed at LS and non-weight-bearing forearms. These BMD changes were independent of weight and age differences. We, therefore, recommend close monitoring of bone health following RYGB and GS surgeries.

Abstract
The unique metabolic characteristics and diverse functions of marrow adipose tissue (MAT) have drawn more attention recently. Previously, we have reported that CBFA2T2 is required for BMP2-induced osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs). In the present study, we further investigated the role of CBFA2T2 in regulation of adipogenic differentiation in mouse bone marrow-derived MSCs (mBMSCs) and human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). We found CBFA2T2 expression was dramatically upregulated during adipogenesis of mBMSCs and hDPSCs. More importantly, knockdown of CBFA2T2 in mBMSCs and hDPSCs significantly inhibited the process of adipogenic differentiation, as revealed by the expression of adipogenic markers and Oil Red O staining. Mechanistically, we found knockdown of CBFA2T2 led to an increase in H3K9me2 and H3K9me3 levels at promoter of CEBPA, an essential transcription factor of adipogenesis. Taken together, these findings suggest CBFA2T2 is key regulator of adipogenic differentiation of MSCs, and it may represent a therapeutic target for conditions with excessive MAT.

Abstract
AbstractObesity is a systemic disease, associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disorders, type 2 diabetes, cancer, asthma, and osteoarthritis. Overweight and obesity have been suggested to be associated with periodontitis as published in studies and narrative summaries. Obesity and periodontal diseases are very prevalent in the world, and both can lead to severe chronic health conditions and impair people’s life quality. Knowledge of how immune mechanisms and inflammatory responses are regulated is critical for understanding the pathogenesis of complex diseases, such as periodontitis. In conditions of overweight, it has been demonstrated that approximately 70–80% of individuals present an adipose tissue turnover that is both structurally and functionally causing of the systemic inflammatory reaction. The objective of this review is to explore the influence of lipoinflammation. The effects of lipoinflammation and obesity on development of periodontal disease are reported together with the exploration of the mechanisms of interaction between these two diseases.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic, autoimmune disease characterized by joint involvement, with progressive cartilage and bone destruction. Genetic and environmental factors determine RA susceptibility. In recent years, an increasing number of studies suggested that diet has a central role in disease risk and progression. Several nutrients, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids, present anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, featuring a protective role for RA development, while others such as red meat and salt have a harmful effect. Gut microbiota alteration and body composition modifications are indirect mechanisms of how diet influences RA onset and progression. Possible protective effects of some dietary patterns and supplements, such as the Mediterranean Diet (MD), vitamin D and probiotics, could be a possible future adjunctive therapy to standard RA treatment. Therefore, a healthy lifestyle and nutrition have to be encouraged in patients with RA.

Abstract
Exercise represents the most important integrative therapy in metabolic, immunologic and chronic diseases; it represents a valid strategy in the non-pharmacological intervention of lifestyle linked diseases. A large body of evidence indicates physical exercise as an effective measure against chronic non-communicable diseases. The worldwide general evidence for health benefits are both for all ages and skill levels. In a dysregulated lifestyle such as in the obesity, there is an imbalance in the production of different cytokines. In particular, we focused on Adiponectin, an adipokine producted by adipose tissue, and on Orexin-A, a neuropeptide synthesized in the lateral hypothalamus. The production of both Adiponectin and Orexin-A increases following regular and structured physical activity and both these hormones have similar actions. Indeed, they improve energy and glucose metabolism, and also modulate energy expenditure and thermogenesis. In addition, a relevant biological role of Adiponectin and Orexin A has been recently highlighted in the immune system, where they function as immune-suppressor factors. The strong connection between these two cytokines and healthy status is mediated by physical activity and candidates these hormones as potential biomarkers of the beneficial effects induced by physical activity. For these reasons, this review aims to underly the interconnections among Adiponectin, Orexin-A, physical activity and healthy status. Furthermore, it is analyzed the involvement of Adiponectin and Orexin-A in physical activity as physiological factors improving healthy status through physical exercise.

Abstract
Bones undergo continuous cycles of bone remodelling that rely on the balance between bone formation and resorption. This balance allows the bone to adapt to changes in mechanical loads and repair microdamages. However, this balance is susceptible to upset in various conditions, leading to impaired bone remodelling and abnormal bones. This is usually indicated by abnormal bone mineral density (BMD), an indicator of bone strength. Despite this, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) exhibit normal to high BMD, yet still suffer from an increased risk of fractures. The activity of the bone cells is also altered as indicated by the reduced levels of bone turnover markers in T2DM observed in the circulation. The underlying mechanisms behind these skeletal outcomes in patients with T2DM remain unclear. This review summarises recent findings regarding inflammatory cytokine factors associated with T2DM to understand the mechanisms involved and considers potential therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Convergent lines of evidence indicate the critical roles of adiponectin in regulating neural functions on different levels. Because of the importance in maintaining neural plasticity including adult neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity, adiponectin has the potential to serve as the treatment targets in therapies of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Hence, systematic review is needed to summarize how adiponectin works in the brain, and how the adiponectin pathway is employed as the treatment method needs to be determined. Moreover, the benefits of adiponectin as the regulator for neural plasticity such as synaptic plasticity and neurogenesis have been supported by many literatures. In the current article, we reviewed the functions of adiponectin in different types of neural plasticity. We also demonstrated the potential value of adiponectin as the treatment target for different types of neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders. Taken together, this review offers a new insight about adiponectin as the ideal target to develop the new treatment methods against neurodegeneration or psychiatric diseases.
