Innate immune training of osteoclastogenesis promotes inflammatory bone loss in mice.

ABSTRACT: We previously demonstrated that long-term trained immunity (TRIM) involves adaptations that imprint innate immune memory in long-lived myelopoiesis precursors and their progeny, monocytes/macrophages and neutrophils, which thereby acquire enhanced responsiveness to future challenges. Here, we show that a distinct component of myeloid biology, osteoclastogenesis, can also undergo innate immune training. Indeed, β-glucan-induced TRIM was associated with an increased osteoclastogenesis bias in the bone marrow and an expansion of monocytes/osteoclast progenitors in the periphery, resulting in aggravated severity of experimental periodontitis and arthritis. In the setting of trained inflammatory osteoclastogenesis, we observed transcriptomic rewiring in synovial myeloid cells of arthritic mice,
