Abstract Context Interleukin 6 (IL-6) contributes to bone remodeling in preclinical studies. Clinical trials investigating the role of IL-6 in bone remodeling are limited. Objective To investigate if IL-6 regulates bone remodeling in humans. Design Plasma concentrations of the bone resorption marker carboxy-terminal type I collagen crosslinks (CTX) and of the bone formation marker procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) were measured during a mixed-meal tolerance test (MMTT) in 3 placebo-controlled human studies. Participants Five healthy individuals participated in study 1; 52 obese individuals, in study 2; and 10 healthy individuals, in study 3. Interventions Study 1 was a single-blinded crossover study consisting of a 1-h infusion of saline (placebo) or the IL-6 receptor antibody tocilizumab followed by an exercise bout. Study 2 was a randomized, double-blinded 12-week exercise training intervention study. Participants received infusions of saline or tocilizumab. Study 3 was a randomized, double-blinded, crossover study consisting of 30 min infusion of saline or IL-6. Main outcomes measures Effect of IL-6 on CTX levels. Results CTX was significantly (P < 0.01) decreased during MMTTs in all 3 studies. Treatment with tocilizumab did not affect exercise or meal induced changes in plasma CTX or P1NP concentrations acutely (study 1) or after a 12-week treatment period (study 2). Exogenous IL-6 had no effect on CTX or P1NP plasma concentrations (study 3). Conclusions IL-6 may not regulate bone remodeling in humans.

Markers Of Bone Turnover

Osteocalcin and deoxypyridinoline levels were measured in 55 RA patients during and after glucocorticoid therapy with prednisone, methylprednisolone and cortisone. A decrease of 27% of the bone resorption marker deoxypyridinoline (from 10.13 to 7.4) and an increase of 23% of the bone formation marker osteocalcin (from 16.3 to 20.1) were also clinically confirmed by the presence of osteoporosis in 74% of patients receiving corticosteroid treatment as compared with only 31% in the control group.

Objectives SLE is a chronic autoimmune disease, which can affect the level of bone metabolism and increase the risk of osteoporosis and fracture. The purpose of this research is to study the effect of SLE on bone turnover markers without the influence of glucocorticoids. Methods A total of 865 female subjects were recruited from Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital and the First Hospital of Jiaxing, including 391 SLE patients without the influence of glucocorticoids and 474 non-SLE people. We detected Bone turnover markers including amino-terminal propeptide of type 1 procollagen (P1NP), C-terminal turnover of β - I collagen (β-CTX), N-terminal midfragment of osteocalcin (NMID) and 25(OH)D, and analyzed the difference in Bone turnover markers between the SLE group and the control group, as well as the influence of age and season on bone metabolism in female SLE patients. Results In the SLE group, the average age was 43.93±13.95 years old. In the control group, the average age was 44.84±11.42 years old. There was no difference between the two groups (t = 1.03, P = 0.30). P1NP, NMID and 25(OH)D in the SLE group were significantly lower than those in the control group (Z = 8.44, p < 0.001; Z = 14.41, p < 0.001; Z = 2.19, p = 0.029), and β-CTX in the SLE group was significantly higher than that in the control group (Z = 2.61, p = 0.009). In addition, the levers of β-CTX, NMID, P1NP and 25(OH)D in older SLE female patients were statistically significantly higher than those in younger (ρ = 0.104, p = 0.041; ρ = 0.223, p < 0.001; ρ = 0.105, p = 0.038; ρ = 0.289, p < 0.001). Moreover, β-CTX reached a high value in summer and PINP reached a low value in winter. Conclusion The bone formation markers of female SLE patients without glucocorticoid were lower than those of normal people and the bone resorption marker was higher than that of normal people. The 25 (OH) D of female SLE patients without glucocorticoid was lower than that of normal people. The risk of osteoporosis and fracture may be higher in elderly women with SLE. The bone resorption level of female SLE patients is high in summer and the bone formation level is low in winter.

Osteoporosis is one of the major bone disorders that affects both women and men, and causes bone deterioration and bone strength. Bone remodeling maintains bone mass and mineral homeostasis through the balanced action of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which are responsible for bone formation and bone resorption, respectively. The imbalance in bone remodeling is known to be the main cause of osteoporosis. The imbalance can be the result of the action of various molecules produced by one bone cell that acts on other bone cells and influence cell activity. The understanding of the effect of these molecules on bone can help identify new targets and therapeutics to prevent and treat bone disorders. In this article, we have focused on molecules that are produced by osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts and their mechanism of action on these cells. We have also summarized the different pharmacological osteoporosis treatments that target different molecular aspects of these bone cells to minimize osteoporosis.

Background: Evidence is growing that a high-acid diet might accelerate the rate of bone loss, and gene polymorphisms such as Interleukin 6 (IL6) -174G/C and -572G/C are related to bone deterioration. However, no study of the interaction between diet and IL6 polymorphisms has been conducted among Asians. Thus, the objective of this study was to determine whether IL6 gene polymorphisms modified the association between dietary acidity and the rate of bone resorption. Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited 203 postmenopausal women (age ranged from 51 to 85 years old) in community settings. The dietary intakes of the participants were assessed using a validated interviewer-administered semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ), while dietary acid load (DAL) was estimated using net endogenous acid production (NEAP). Agena® MassARRAY genotyping analysis and serum collagen type 1 cross-linked C-telopeptide (CTX1) were used to identify the IL6 genotype and as a bone resorption marker, respectively. The interactions between diet and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were assessed using linear regressions. Results: A total of 203 healthy postmenopausal women aged between 51 and 85 years participated in this study. The mean BMI of the participants was 24.3 kg/m2. In IL6 -174 G/C, all the participants carried the GG genotype, while the C allele was absent. Approximately 40% of the participants had a high dietary acid load. Dietary acid load (B = 0.15, p = 0.031) and the IL6 -572 CC genotype group (B = 0.14, p = 0.044) were positively associated with a higher bone resorption. However, there was no moderating effect of the IL6 genetic polymorphism on the relationship between and acid ash diet and bone resorption markers among the postmenopausal women (p = 0.79). Conclusion: High consumption of an acid ash diet and the IL6 -572 C allele seem to attribute to high bone resorption among postmenopausal women. However, our finding does not support the interaction effect of dietary acidity and IL6 (-174G/C and -572G/C) polymorphisms on the rate of bone resorption. Taken together, these results have given scientific research other candidate genes to focus on which may interact with DAL on bone resorption, to enhance planning for preventing or delaying the onset of osteoporosis among postmenopausal women.

In order to clarify the mechanisms involved in the occurrence of lytic bone lesions (BL) in multiple myeloma (MM), we have compared the presenting myeloma-induced histological bone changes of 14 previously untreated MM patients with lytic BL with those of seven MM patients lacking lytic BL at presentation despite similar myeloma cell mass. A major unbalanced bone remodeling (increased bone resorption with normal to low bone formation) was the characteristic feature of patients presenting lytic BL. Furthermore, this unbalanced process was associated with a significant reduction of bone mass. Unexpectedly, a balanced bone remodeling (increase of both bone resorption and bone formation, without bone mass reduction) rather than a true lack of an excessive bone resorption was the usual feature of patients lacking lytic BL. Our current work clearly shows that a majority (72%) of patients with MM present an important unbalanced bone remodeling at diagnosis, leading to bone mass reduction and bone destruction (unbalanced MM). Some patients (20%) retain a balanced bone remodeling with initial absence of bone destruction (balanced MM). Few (8%) patients have pure osteoblastic MM without bone destruction.

Abstract Context: Odanacatib, a cathepsin K inhibitor, increases spine and hip areal bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women with low BMD and cortical thickness in ovariectomized monkeys. Objective: The objective of the study was to examine the impact of odanacatib on the trabecular and cortical bone compartments and estimated strength at the hip and spine. Design: This was a randomized, double-blind, 2-year trial. Setting: The study was conducted at a private or institutional practice. Participants: Participants included 214 postmenopausal women with low areal BMD. Intervention: The intervention included odanacatib 50 mg or placebo weekly. Main Outcome Measures: Changes in areal BMD by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (primary end point, 1 year areal BMD change at lumbar spine), bone turnover markers, volumetric BMD by quantitative computed tomography (QCT), and bone strength estimated by finite element analysis were measured. Results: Year 1 lumbar spine areal BMD percent change from baseline was 3.5% greater with odanacatib than placebo (P &lt; .001). Bone-resorption marker C-telopeptide of type 1 collagen was significantly lower with odanacatib vs placebo at 6 months and 2 years (P &lt; .001). Bone-formation marker procollagen I N-terminal peptide initially decreased with odanacatib but by 2 years did not differ from placebo. After 6 months, odanacatib-treated women had greater increases in trabecular volumetric BMD and estimated compressive strength at the spine and integral and trabecular volumetric BMD and estimated strength at the hip (P &lt; .001). At the cortical envelope of the femoral neck, bone mineral content, thickness, volume, and cross-sectional area also increased from baseline with odanacatib vs placebo (P &lt; .001 at 24 months). Adverse experiences were similar between groups. Conclusions: Over 2 years, odanacatib decreased bone resorption, maintained bone formation, increased areal and volumetric BMD, and increased estimated bone strength at both the hip and spine.

Abstract Bortezomib is a proteasome inhibitor, which is currently indicated for the treatment of relapsed/refractory myeloma (MM). Although the anti-myeloma effect of bortezomib has been clearly demonstrated, its effect on bone metabolism is still unclear. There are recent reports that bortezomib increases serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, which is consistent with enhanced osteoblast function. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of bortezomib on bone turnover in 34 patients with relapsed MM. Bortezomib was given alone at a dose of 1.3 mg/m2 on days 1, 4, 8, and 11 of a 3-week cycle for 4 cycles. Responders could continue for 4 more cycles, while non-responders could continue therapy with the addition of dexamethasone. The following serum indices were measured on day 1 of cycle 1, and then on day 21 of cycles 4 and 8: osteoblast inhibitor dickkopf-1 (DKK-1); osteoclast regulators: soluble RANKL (sRANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG); bone resorption markers: C-telopeptide of collagen type-I (CTX) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type-5b (TRACP-5b); and bone formation markers: bone-specific ALP (bALP) and osteocalcin (OC). We also studied 33 healthy controls of similar gender and age. The objective response rate after 4 cycles of therapy was 66%: CR 8% and PR 58%. Sixteen responders and 3 non-responders continued on therapy for 4 more cycles. Myeloma patients at baseline had increased values of DKK-1 (p=0.007), sRANKL, sRANKL/OPG ratio, and both markers of bone resorption (p&lt;0.0001) when compared to controls. In contrast, bone formation as assessed by serum bALP and OC was significantly reduced (p&lt;0.001). There was a strong correlation between bone lytic disease and serum CTX (r=0.59, p&lt;0.01), and sRANKL (r=0.4, p=0.03). Patients with severe bone disease (&gt;9 lytic lesions, n=7) had elevated values of DKK-1 compared with all others (mean±SD: 223.4±264.4 ng/mL vs. 84±62.4 ng/mL; p=0.01). Moreover, serum levels of DKK-1 correlated with CTX levels (r=0.39, p=0.04), and weakly with bALP concentrations (r=−0.32, p=0.09). The administration of bortezomib produced a significant reduction of DKK-1 (p=0.035), sRANKL (p=0.01), CTX and TRACP-5b (p&lt;0.001) after 4 cycles, which was still seen after 8 cycles of treatment (p&lt;0.01). Bortezomib also produced a dramatic increase in both markers of bone formation, bALP and OC, after 4 and 8 cycles of therapy (p&lt;0.01). Responders tended to have lower initial levels of DKK-1 compared with non-responders. Patients who achieved a CR or vgPR after 4 cycles of bortezomib had greater elevation of bALP than all others: mean±SD of increase: 306.3%±556.9% vs. 45.8%±56.5%; p=0.02. It is of interest that 3/4 non responders also had an increase in bALP (mean: 39.6%) after 4 cycles of bortezomib. There was no other correlation between response to therapy and alteration of bone markers. No healing of the lytic lesions was observed even in CR patients. This study suggests that bortezomib reduces serum levels of DKK-1 and RANKL, irrespective of response to therapy, in patients with relapsed myeloma and thus leads to normalization of abnormal bone remodeling through the increase of bone formation and reduction of bone resorption.

9610 Background: Weight-bearing exercise may slow the rate of bone loss associated with breast cancer treatment. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of tai chi chuan (TCC) on bone health, as measured by the changes in the levels of bone resorption and bone formation. This study also aimed to investigate whether changes in bone health were correlated with growth and inflammation markers that serve as regulators of bone cell function. Methods: Female patients (N=16) who completed treatment for breast cancer within the past 30 months were randomly assigned to either the TCC group or the psycho-educational support group without exercise (ST) for 60 minutes, three times a week for a period of 12 weeks. Serum levels of bone resorption (N-telopeptides of type I collagen; NTx) and bone formation (bone specific alkaline phosphatase; BAP) were determined by ELISA at baseline and post-intervention. Using validated methods, a bone remodeling index (BRI) was calculated from levels of NTx and BAP. In addition, pre- and post-intervention levels of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 (IGFBP-1) and interleukin-2 (IL-2), markers associated with excessive bone resorption, were measured. Lastly, levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), believed to enhance bone formation, were measured at both pre- and post-intervention. Results: ANCOVA analyses demonstrated that survivors in the TCC group experienced a greater increase in bone remodeling than those in the ST group (Δ BRITCC=1.6 vs Δ BRIST=0.2; p=0.04). All correlations were determined by Pearson's correlation coefficients. IGFBP-1 was negatively correlated with increasing bone remodeling levels (r=-0.43, p=0.14). IL-2 was also negatively correlated with increasing bone remodeling levels (r=-0.35, p=0.24). IL-6 was positively correlated with increasing bone remodeling levels (r=0.69, p=0.01). Conclusions: This pilot study suggests that TCC has positive effects on bone remodeling through changes in growth and inflammation factors that regulate bone cell function. A larger, more definitive trial examining the influence of TCC on bone remodeling is warranted. Funding: Sally Schindel Cone and R25 CA102618 No significant financial relationships to disclose.
