Osteoblasts and osteoclasts play a pivotal role in maintaining bone homeostasis, of which excessive bone resorption by osteoclasts can cause osteoporosis and various bone diseases. However, current osteoporosis treatments have many side effects, and research on new treatments that can replace these treatments is ongoing. Therefore, in this study, the roles of ligustroside (LGS) and oleoside dimethylester (ODE), a natural product-derived compound isolated from subsp. as a novel, natural product-derived osteoporosis treatments were investigated. In the results of this study, LGS and ODE inhibited the differentiation of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANKL)-induced RAW264.7 cells into osteoclasts without cytotoxicity, and down-regulated the activity of TRAP, a specific biomarker of osteoclasts. In addition, it inhibited bone resorption and actin ring formation, which are important functions and features of osteoclasts. Also, the effects of LGS and ODE on the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B (NF-κB) and phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K)/ protein kinase B (Akt)/mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathways that play important roles in osteoclast differentiation were evaluated. In the results, LGS and ODE downregulated the phosphorylation of RANKL-induced MAPK and PI3K/Akt/mTOR proteins in a concentration-dependent manner, translocation of NF-κB into the nucleus was inhibited. As a result, the compounds LGS and ODE isolated from subsp. effectively regulated the differentiation of RANKL-induced osteoclasts and inhibited the phosphorylation of signaling pathways that play a pivotal role in osteoclast differentiation. Therefore, these results suggest the possibility of LGS and ODE as new natural product treatments for bone diseases caused by excessive osteoclasts.
成骨细胞和破骨细胞在维持骨稳态中发挥着关键作用,其中破骨细胞的过度骨吸收会导致骨质疏松症和各种骨疾病。然而,目前的骨质疏松症治疗方法有很多副作用,因此正在研究可以替代这些治疗方法的新治疗方法。因此,在这项研究中,研究了从 subsp. 中分离得到的天然产物衍生化合物藁本内酯(LGS)和齐墩果酸二甲酯(ODE)作为新型天然产物骨质疏松症治疗药物的作用。在本研究的结果中,LGS 和 ODE 在没有细胞毒性的情况下抑制核因子 kappa-B 配体(RANKL)诱导的 RAW264.7 细胞向破骨细胞分化,并下调破骨细胞的特异性生物标志物 TRAP 的活性。此外,它还抑制了破骨细胞的骨吸收和肌动蛋白环形成,这是破骨细胞的重要功能和特征。此外,还评估了 LGS 和 ODE 对丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)和核因子 kappa-轻链增强子的激活 B 细胞(NF-κB)和磷酸肌醇 3-激酶(PI3K)/蛋白激酶 B(Akt)/雷帕霉素(mTOR)信号通路的影响,这些信号通路在破骨细胞分化中起着重要作用。结果表明,LGS 和 ODE 以浓度依赖的方式下调 RANKL 诱导的 MAPK 和 PI3K/Akt/mTOR 蛋白的磷酸化,抑制 NF-κB 向核内易位。因此,这些化合物有效地调节了 RANKL 诱导的破骨细胞的分化,并抑制了在破骨细胞分化中起关键作用的信号通路的磷酸化。因此,这些结果表明 LGS 和 ODE 作为新的天然产物治疗由破骨细胞过度引起的骨疾病的可能性。
