Bone marrow-derived exosomes promote inflammation and osteoclast differentiation in high-turnover renal osteodystrophy.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is a type of bone metabolic disorder in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Inflammation is associated with bone loss in ROD. However, its precise mechanism has not yet been elucidated. The present study was conducted to investigate whether exosomes (Exos) in bone marrow (BM) are involved in the pathogenesis of high-turnover ROD.Methods: Bone mass, osteoclast number, and pro-inflammatory cytokines levels of BM supernatant were detected in adenine-induced ROD rats. The effect of Exos derived from BM (BM-Exos) of ROD (ROD-Exos) on inflammatory genes and osteoclast differentiation of BM-derived macrophages (BMMs) were further examined. Then, exosomal miRNA sequencing was performed and an miRNA-mRNA-pathway network was constructed.
