A Novel Prenylflavonoid Icariside I Ameliorates Estrogen Deficiency-Induced Osteoporosis via Simultaneous Regulation of Osteoblast and Osteoclast Differentiation.

ABSTRACT: Regulation of osteoblast-mediated bone formation and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption is crucial for bone health. Currently, most clinical drugs for osteoporosis treatment such as bisphosphonates are commonly used to inhibit bone resorption but unable to promote bone formation. In this study, we discovered for the first time that icariside I (GH01), a novel prenylflavonoid isolated from Epimedium, can effectively ameliorate estrogen deficiency-induced osteoporosis with enhancement of trabecular and cortical bone in an ovariectomy (OVX) mouse model. Mechanistically, our in vitro results showed that GH01 repressed osteoclast differentiation and resorption through inhibition of RANKL-induced TRAF6-MAPK-p38-NFATc1 cascade. Simultaneously, we also found that GH01 dose-dependently promoted osteoblast differentiation and formation by inhibiting adipogenesis and accelerating energy metabolism of osteoblasts. In addition, both in vitro and in vivo studies also suggested that GH01 is not only a non-toxic natural small molecule but also beneficial for restoration of liver injury in OVX mice. These results demonstrated that GH01 has great potential for osteoporosis treatment by simultaneous regulation of osteoblast and osteoclast differentiation.

Project description:IntroductionAs a common complication of spinal cord injury (SCI), most SCI patients suffer from osteoporosis. In our previous study, chronic intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (CIHH) could promote bone fracture healing. We speculated that it may act a role in the progression of osteoporosis. The current study purposed to explore the role of CIHH in the osteoporosis triggered by SCI in rats.MethodsA SCI-induced SCI model was established by completed transection at T9-T10 spinal cord of Wistar rats. One week after SCI, the rats were conducted to CIHH treatment (PB = 404 mmHg, Po2 = 84 mmHg) 6 hours a day for continuously 7 weeks.ResultsThe results of X-radiography and Micro-CT assessment demonstrated that compared with sham rats, the areal bone mineral density (BMD), bone volume to tissue volume, volumetric BMD, trabecular thickness, trabecular number, and trabecular connectivity were decreased. Trabecular bone pattern factor, trabecular separation, as well as structure model index were increased at the distal femur and proximal tibia of SCI rats, which were effectively reversed by CIHH treatment. Histomorphometry showed that CIHH treatment increased bone formation of SCI rats, as evidenced by the increased osteoid formation, the decreased number and surface of TRAP-positive osteoclasts. Furthermore, ELISA and real time PCR results showed that the osteoblastogenesis-related biomarkers, such as procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide, osteocalcin in serum, as well as ALP and OPG mRNAs in bone tissue were decreased, while the osteoclastogenesis-related biomarkers, including scleorostin in serum and RANKL and TRAP mRNAs in bone tissue were increased in SCI rats. Importantly, the deviations of aforementioned biomarkers were improved by CIHH treatment. Mechanically, the protective effects of CIHH might be at least partly mediated by hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) signaling pathway.ConclusionThe present study testified that CIHH treatment ameliorates osteoporosis after SCI by balancing osteoblast and osteoclast activities in rats.
