CNC-bZIP protein NFE2L1 regulates osteoclast differentiation in antioxidant-dependent and independent manners.

ABSTRACT: Fine-tuning of osteoclast differentiation (OD) and bone remodeling is crucial for bone homeostasis. Dissecting the mechanisms regulating osteoclastogenesis is fundamental to understanding the pathogenesis of various bone disorders including osteoporosis and arthritis. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 1 (NFE2L1, also known as NRF1), which belongs to the CNC-bZIP family of transcription factors, orchestrates a variety of physiological processes and stress responses. While Nfe2l1 gene may be transcribed into multiple alternatively spliced isoforms, the biological function of the different isoforms of NFE2L1 in bone metabolism, osteoclastogenesis in particular, has not been reported. Here we demonstrate that knockout of all isoforms of Nfe2l1 transcripts specifically in the myeloid li
