Abstract

Eudebeiolide B is a eudesmane-type sesquiterpenoid compound isolated from Salvia plebeia R. Br. , and little is known about its biological activity. In this study, we investigated the effects of eudebeiolide B on osteoblast differentiation, receptor activator nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro and ovariectomy-induced bone loss in vivo. Eudebeiolide B induced the expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and calcium accumulation during MC3T3-E1 osteoblast differentiation. In mouse bone marrow macrophages (BMMs), eudebeiolide B suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation of BMMs and bone resorption. Eudebeiolide B downregulated the expression of nuclear factor of activated T-cells 1 (NFATc1) and c-fos, transcription factors induced by RANKL. Moreover, eudebeiolide B attenuated the RANKL-induced expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes, including cathepsin K (Ctsk), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) and dendrocyte expressed seven transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP). Regarding the molecular mechanism, eudebeiolide B inhibited the phosphorylation of Akt and NF-κB p65. In addition, it downregulated the expression of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB), Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) and phospholipase Cγ2 (PLCγ2) in RANKL-induced calcium signaling. In an ovariectomized (OVX) mouse model, intragastric injection of eudebeiolide B prevented OVX-induced bone loss, as shown by bone mineral density and contents, microarchitecture parameters and serum levels of bone turnover markers. Eudebeiolide B not only promoted osteoblast differentiation but inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis through calcium signaling and prevented OVX-induced bone loss. Therefore, eudebeiolide B may be a new therapeutic agent for osteoclast-related diseases, including osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis. VSports手机版.

Eudebeiolide B inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and promotes osteoblast differentiation. (A) Structure of eudebeiolide B (n = 3). (B) Cytotoxicity of eudebiolide B. Bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) were seeded and treated with indicated concentrations of eudebeiolide B in the presence of M-CSF (30 ng/mL) for 72 h. Cell viability was analyzed using the XTT assay (n = 3). (C) BMMs were treated with RANKL (100 ng/mL) and M-CSF (30 ng/mL) after pretreatment with 1, 5, 10 or 30 μM of eudebeiolide B for 1 h. Cells were fixed and stained with TRAP staining solution. TRAP-positive multinucleated cells (TRAP + MNCs) with more than three nuclei were defined as osteoclasts and counted (n = 3). (D) BMMs were seeded and treated with RANKL (50 ng/mL) and M-CSF (30 ng/mL) for 72 h. Cells were then treated with eudebeiolide B for 48 h. Bone resorption areas were measured using ImageJ (n = 3). (E) MC3T3-E1 cells were seeded and incubated with differentiation media and eudebeiolide B for 7 days. Osteoblast differentiation was determined by ALP staining, and ALP activity was measured using the cell lysate (n = 3). (F) MC3T3-E1 cells were seeded and incubated with differentiation media and eudebeiolide B for 21 days. Osteoblast differentiation was assessed by Alizarin red staining, and calcium accumulation was quantified with cetylpyridinium chloride solution (n = 3). (G) MC3T3-E1 cells were treated with or without eudebeiolide B (10 μM) and cultured for 24, 48 and 72 h. The mRNA expression of Runx2, Osterix, OPG and RANKL was assessed by quantitative PCR (n = 3). Values are expressed as the means ± S.D. of three individual experiments. * p < 0.05 and ** p < 0.01 versus control (CE) obtained through one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s test; * p < 0.05 and ** p < 0.01 versus the only-DM-treated group (G) obtained through the unpaired Student’s t-test.
