Actin and ERK1/2-CEBPβ signaling mediates phagocytosis-induced innate immune response of osteoprogenitor cells.
    Biomaterials, 2011, Volume: 32, Issue:35

    Wear particles at the host bone-implant interface are a major challenge for successful bone implant arthoplasties. Current understanding of aseptic loosening consists of macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses and increasing osteoclastogenesis, which lead to an imbalance between bone formation and resorption. Despite its significant role in bone regeneration and implant osteointegration, the osteoprogenitor response to wear particles has been examined recent years. More specifically, the intracellular mechanism of osteoprogenitor mediated inflammation has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we examined the role of osteoprogenitors and the cellular mechanism by which metal wear particles elicit an inflammatory cascade. Through both in vivo and in vitro experiments, we have demonstrated that osteoprogenitor cells are capable of initiating inflammatory responses by phagocytosing wear particles, which lead to subsequent accumulation of macrophages and osteoclastogenesis, and the ERK_CEBP/β intracellular signaling is a key inflammatory pathway that links phagocytosis of wear particles to inflammatory gene expression in osteoprogenitors. AZD6244 treatment, a potent inhibitor of the ERK pathway, attenuated particle mediated inflammatory osteolysis both in vivo and in vitro. This study advances our understanding of the mechanisms of osteoprogenitor-mediated inflammation, and provides further evidence that the ERK_CEBP/β pathway may be a suitable therapeutic target in the treatment of inflammatory osteolysis.

Particulate endocytosis mediates biological responses of human mesenchymal stem cells to titanium wear debris.
    Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 2006, Volume: 24, Issue:3

    Continual loading and articulation cycles undergone by metallic (e.g., titanium) alloy arthroplasty prostheses lead to liberation of a large number of metallic debris particulates, which have long been implicated as a primary cause of periprosthetic osteolysis and postarthroplasty aseptic implant loosening. Long-term stability of total joint replacement prostheses relies on proper integration between implant biomaterial and osseous tissue, and factors that interfere with this integration are likely to cause osteolysis. Because multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) located adjacent to the implant have an osteoprogenitor function and are critical contributors to osseous tissue integrity, when their functions or activities are compromised, osteolysis will most likely occur. To date, it is not certain or sufficiently confirmed whether MSCs endocytose titanium particles, and if so, whether particulate endocytosis has any effect on cellular responses to wear debris. This study seeks to clarify the phenomenon of titanium endocytosis by human MSCs (hMSCs), and investigates the influence of endocytosis on their activities. hMSCs incubated with commercially pure titanium particles exhibited internalized particles, as observed by scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy, with time-dependent reduction in the number of extracellular particles. Particulate endocytosis was associated with reduced rates of cellular proliferation and cell-substrate adhesion, suppressed osteogenic differentiation, and increased rate of apoptosis. These cellular effects of exposure to titanium particles were reduced when endocytosis was inhibited by treatment with cytochalasin D, and no significant effect was seen when hMSCs were treated only with conditioned medium obtained from particulate-treated cells. These findings strongly suggest that the biological responses of hMSCs to wear debris are triggered primarily by the direct endocytosis of titanium particulates, and not mediated by secreted soluble factors. In this manner, therapeutical approaches that suppress particle endocytosis could reduce the bioreactivity of hMSCs to particulates, and enhance long-term orthopedic implant prognosis by minimizing wear-debris periprosthethic osteolysis.
