Apoptotic osteocytes regulate osteoclast precursor recruitment and differentiation in vitro
Open accessAbstract
Fatigue loading causes a spatial distribution of osteocyte apoptosis co‐localized with bone resorption spaces peaking around microdamage sites. Since osteocytes have been shown to regulate osteoclast formation and activity, we hypothesize that osteocyte apoptosis regulates osteoclastogenesis. In this study, we used serum‐starvation to mimic reduced nutrient transport in microdamaged bone and induce apoptosis in MLO‐Y4 osteocyte‐like cells; conditioned medium was used to apply soluble factors released by apoptotic osteocytes (aOCY) to healthy non‐apoptotic MLO‐Y4 cells. Osteoclast precursor (RAW264.7 monocyte) migration and differentiation were assessed in the presence of conditioned media (CM) from: (A) aOCY, (B) osteocytes treated with apoptosis conditioned medium (i.e., healthy osteocytes in the presence of apoptosis cues; apoptosis CM‐treated osteocytes (atOCY)), and (C) osteocytes treated with non‐apoptosis conditioned medium (i.e., healthy osteocytes in the absence of apoptosis cues; non‐apoptosis CM‐treated osteocytes (natOCY)). Receptor activator for nuclear factor‐κB ligand (RANKL), macrophage colony stimulating factor (M‐CSF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) mRNA, and protein expression were measured. Our findings indicate that soluble factors released by aOCY and atOCY promoted osteoclast precursor migration (up to 64% and 24% increase, respectively) and osteoclast formation (up to 450% and 265% increase, respectively). Osteoclast size increased up to 233% in the presence of aOCY and atOCY CM. Recruitment, formation and size were unaltered by natOCY. RANKL mRNA and protein expression were upregulated only in aOCY, while M‐CSF and VEGF increased in atOCY. Addition of RANKL‐blocking antibody abolished aOCY‐induced osteoclast precursor migration and osteoclast formation. VEGF and M‐CSF blocking antibodies abolished atOCY‐induced osteoclastogenesis. These findings suggest that aOCY directly and indirectly (through atOCY) initiate targeted bone resorption by regulating osteoclast precursor recruitment and differentiation. J. Cell.

Conditioned media of apoptotic MLO-Y4 cells increased osteoclast formation, osteoclast size and osteoclast precursor migration; in apoptotic MLO-Y4 cells, both RANKL mRNA and protein expression were upregulated, suggesting that the conditioned media might contain sRANKL.
“In a different study, the conditioned media of apoptotic MLO-Y4 cells increased osteoclast formation, osteoclast size and osteoclast precursor migration. Interestingly, in apoptotic MLO-Y4 cells, both RANKL mRNA and protein expression were upregulated, suggesting that the conditioned media of this cell culture might contain sRANKL.56”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
