Morinda Officinalis Polysaccharides Inhibit Osteoclast Differentiation by Regulating miR-214-3p/NEDD4L in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis Mice.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the potential mechanism of Morinda officinalis F. C. How polysaccharides (MOPs) in regulating osteoclast differentiation and apoptosis through miR-214-3p and its target protein. Ovariectomy was performed in 8-week female C57BL6 mice to establish the postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) model. Mice were treated immediately with 500 mg/kg of MOPs (prevention group); others were treated 2 weeks after operation (treatment group). Left femur bone mineral density (BMD) was examined. RAW264.7 cells were administered with receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) to establish the osteoclast (OC) model and treated with serum containing 1 or 2 g/kg of MOPs. Apoptosis-related indexes, miR-214-3p, and Expressed Developmentally Down-regulated 4-Like (NEDD4L) were detected by western blot,
