Bone Marrow Adipogenesis in Osteoporosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bone marrow adipogenesis is a postnatal event during bone and marrow development. In the adult bone, marrow adipocytes occupy the largest space of the marrow cavity, and serve as a source of energy, autocrine and paracrine factors. Marrow adipocyte share a common multipotential mesenchymal stem cell with other marrow stomal lineages, and functional overlap exists among them. In the marrow stroma microenvironment, adipogenesis is closely associated with osteogenesis, hematopoiesis and osteoclastogenesis. With ageing, increased marrow adipocytes accompany with decreased trabecular bone volume. Marrow adipogenesis may be an important complication of osteoporosis. Many regulators including hormones, growth factors, proinflammatory cytokines and their receptors such as nuclear hormone receptors, trans-memberane kinase receptors and G-protein coupled receptors are involved in the signaling pathway of adipogenesis, and may present potential molecular targets for the manipulation of adipocyte differentiation. Marrow adipocyte may be considered as an important target cell for the therapeutic intervention in osteoporosis. The inhibition of marrow adipogenesis and concomitant enhancement in osteogenesis may provide a potential approach to increase bone formation and therefore provide more efficacious prevention or treatment of osteoporosis.

β-Caryophyllene promotes osteoblastic mineralization, and suppresses osteoclastogenesis and adipogenesis in mouse bone marrow cultures in vitro
Osteoporosis is induced by the reduction in bone mass through decreased osteoblastic osteogenesis and increased osteoclastic bone resorption, and it is associated with obesity and diabetes. Osteoblasts and adipocytes are derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. The prevention of osteoporosis is an important public health concern in aging populations. β-caryophyllene, a component of vari...
متن کاملLoss of androgen receptor promotes adipogenesis but suppresses osteogenesis in bone marrow stromal cells.
Gender differences have been described in osteoporosis with females having a higher risk of osteoporosis than males. The differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) into bone or fat is a critical step for osteoporosis. Here we demonstrated that loss of the androgen receptor (AR) in BMSCs suppressed osteogenesis but promoted adipogenesis. The mechanism dissection studies revealed that A...

AIM To investigate the effect of endogenous n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on bone marrow adipogenesis under osteoporosis conditions. METHODS A mouse osteoporosis model overexpressing the FAT1 gene from Caenorhabditis elegans and converting n-6 PUFAs to n-3 PUFAs endogenously was used. RESULTS The mice presented significantly lower bone marrow adiposity (adipocyte volume/tissue vol...

Glucocorticoid (GC) induced osteoporosis (GIO) is caused by the long-term use of GC for treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The GC related disruption of bone marrow microcirculation and increased adipogenesis contribute to GIO development. However, neither currently available anti-osteoporosis agent is completely addressed to microcirculation and bone marrow adipogenesis. Salvian...
متن کاملThe balance between adipogenesis and osteogenesis in bone regeneration by platelet-rich plasma for age-related osteoporosis.
The aim of this study was to develop a new diagnostic and therapeutic approach for the treatment of osteoporosis. Previously, we demonstrated that intraosseous transplantation of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treated-osteoblast-like cells into ovariectomized senescence-accelerated mice (OVX-SAMP8) prevented the development of osteoporosis. In continuation, we aimed to explore the complex etiology ...
