Abstract

Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) represents the foremost cause of secondary osteoporosis and fragility fractures. Novel therapeutic strategies for GIOP are needed, with improved safety profiles and reduced costs compared to current options. Dendrobium officinale (D. officinale) is a traditional Chinese medicine that has been reported to have beneficial effects on bone metabolism. Here, we sought to investigate the impacts of D. officinale polysaccharides (DOP), the main active constituents of D. officinale, on GIOP in vivo models and dexamethasone (DEX)-treated osteoblast lineage cells. We found that low concentrations of DOP are relatively safe in vitro and in vivo, respectively. Importantly, we found that DOP treatment significantly inhibited DEX-induced osteoporosis in two in vivo models, zebrafish and mice, while boosting osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs exposed to DEX. Futhermore, our data reveal that DOP elevates nuclear Nrf2 levels under DEX treatment, by suppressing of Nrf2 ubiquitination. Leveraging Keap1b knockout zebrafish and RNAi approach, we demonstrated that DOP disrupts the association of Nrf2/Keap1, resulting in the inhibition of Nrf2 ubiquitination. Taken together, these results illuminate that DOP stimulates osteogenesis in the presence of DEX by destabilizing the Nrf2/Keap1 interaction. These findings suggest that DOP may serve as a novel drug against osteoporosis caused by glucocorticoids.

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.
