A water extract of Malva verticillata seeds suppresses osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption stimulated by RANK ligand
BACKGROUND Malva verticillata seeds are used as a therapeutic medicine to treat kidney dysfunction in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). TCM has suggested that herbal medicine tonifying kidney function may have beneficial effect on bone metabolism. METHODS Osteoclastogenesis was examined in bone marrow macrophages by measuring tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity and counting ...
متن کاملWater extract of Uncaria sinensis suppresses RANKL-induced bone loss by attenuating osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption
Background The hooks and stems of Uncaria sinensis have been used to mitigate cardiovascular and central nervous system disorders in Asia traditional medicine. Regulation of osteoclast differentiation and activity is a major target for preventing and treating pathological bone diseases. Methods Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity and the number of TRAP-stained multinucleated c...
متن کاملLrp4 in osteoblasts suppresses bone formation and promotes osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption.
Bone mass is maintained by balanced activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Lrp4 (low-density lipoprotein receptor related protein 4) is a member of the LDL receptor family, whose mutations have been identified in patients with high-bone-mass disorders, such as sclerosteosis and van Buchem diseases. However, it remains unknown whether and how Lrp4 regulates bone-mass homeostasis in vivo. Here ...
متن کاملOCLI-023, a Novel Pyrimidine Compound, Suppresses Osteoclastogenesis In Vitro and Alveolar Bone Resorption In Vivo
An abnormal increase in osteoclast differentiation and activation results in various bone-resorptive diseases, including periodontitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis. Chemical compounds containing pyrimidine ring have been shown to regulate a variety of biological processes. Therefore, in order to identify an antiresorptive agent, we synthesized a series of pyrimidine ring-containing c...
متن کاملA TNF receptor loop peptide mimic blocks RANK ligand-induced signaling, bone resorption, and bone loss.
Activating receptor activator of NF-kappaB (RANK) and TNF receptor (TNFR) promote osteoclast differentiation. A critical ligand contact site on the TNFR is partly conserved in RANK. Surface plasmon resonance studies showed that a peptide (WP9QY) that mimics this TNFR contact site and inhibits TNF-alpha-induced activity bound to RANK ligand (RANKL). Changing a single residue predicted to play an...
