Summary: This article discusses the role of exosomal miR-214 in bone metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma, suggesting that exosomal miR-214 may disrupt bone homeostasis by enhancing bone resorption, leading to bone metastasis. Furthermore, exosomal miR-214 facilitates intercellular communication between lung adenocarcinoma cells and osteoclasts, promoting the colonization and proliferation of cancer cells in the bone.

Summary: The study identified six significantly decreased mature miRs in overactive osteoclasts from Paget's disease of bone (PDB) patients, including let7i-3p, miR-15b-5p, -29b1-3p, -181a-5p, -500b-5p, and -1246. Target genes and enriched pathways highlight the importance of apoptotic pathways in the context of PDB.

Summary: In the bone marrow microenvironment of postmenopausal osteoporosis, BMSC-derived exosomal miRNAs, specifically miR-27a-3p and miR-196b-5p, have been found to play an important regulatory role in bone formation and bone resorption. The study suggests that these miRNAs may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Summary: This study found that exosomal miR-5134-5p derived from osteoclasts inhibits osteoblastic proliferation and differentiation via the JAK2/STAT3 pathway, exacerbating periodontal tissue inflammation and alveolar bone resorption in mice with experimental periodontitis.

Summary: The activation of RAS in breast cancer cells plays a crucial role in osteolytic bone metastasis through the exosome-mediated transfer of osteoclastogenic miRNAs. The study identifies miR-494-3p, miR-4508, and miR-6869-5p as osteoclastogenic miRNAs in exosomes secreted by RAS-activated breast cancer cells.

Summary: Flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds found in various natural products with multiple applications, including anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-carcinogenic properties, as well as the ability to stimulate bone formation. They influence bone remodelling through various signaling pathways and play a crucial role in maintaining bone integrity and structure. Their effects on regulating angiogenesis, decreasing inflammatory cytokine levels, and scavenging reactive oxygen species further underscore their potential as a promising agent in treating bone-related ailments in the future.

Summary: Marrow adipogenic lineage precursors (MALPs) are a type of mesenchymal cell that synthesizes Csf1 to stimulate osteoclastogenesis and regulate bone remodeling and hematopoiesis. Depletion of these cells in mice leads to increased trabecular bone mass but normal cortical bone. Further studies suggest that other mesenchymal subpopulations also secrete Csf1 to control bone resorption.

Summary: Our study identified that GAPLINC is significantly upregulated in RCC tissues and cell lines, and is associated with a poor prognosis in RCC patients. Knockdown of GAPLINC inhibited RCC growth in vitro and in vivo, while overexpression of GAPLINC had the opposite effect. Mechanistically, GAPLINC upregulates the oncogene CSF1 expression by acting as a sponge for miR-135b-5p.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of HIV infection on osteoclast differentiation and found that it severely impaired the differentiation process, leading to compromised cellular adhesion, cathepsin K expression, and resorptive activity. High inoculum of HIV increased the expression of co-receptor CCR5 and tetraspanins CD9 and CD81, resulting in deficient osteoclastogenesis. Massive HIV infection also affected the transcriptional levels of key factors involved in osteoclastogenesis, including RANK, NFATc1, and DC-STAMP.

Summary: Increased bone resorption caused by excessive osteoclasts is the main cause of osteoporosis. The expression of RILP, a protein, is induced by receptor activator of NF-KB ligand, and its inhibition decreases the number and function of osteoclasts. Inhibition of RILP also reduces preosteoclast migration and bone resorption. The study suggests that RILP plays a crucial role in osteoclast formation and bone resorption, and could be a therapeutic target for bone diseases caused by excessive osteoclasts.
