PIP5k1 beta controls bone homeostasis through modulating both osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation

摘要

PIP5k1 beta is crucial to the generation of phosphotidylinosotol (4, 5)P2. PIP5k1 beta participates in numerous cellular activities, such as B cell and platelet activation, cell phagocytosis and endocytosis, cell apoptosis, and cytoskeletal organization. In the present work, we aimed to examine the function of PIP5k1 beta in osteoclastogenesis and osteogenesis to provide promising strategies for osteoporosis prevention and treatment. We discovered that PIP5k1 beta deletion in mice resulted in obvious bone loss and that PIP5k1 beta was highly expressed during both osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation. Deletion of the gene was found to enhance the proliferation and migration of bone marrow-derived macrophage-like cells to promote osteoclast differentiation. PIP5k1 beta(-/-) osteoclasts exhibited normal cytoskeleton architecture but stronger resorption activity. PIP5k1 beta deficiency also promoted activation of mitogen-activated kinase and Akt signaling, enhanced TRAF6 and c-Fos expression, facilitated the expression and nuclear translocation of NFATC1, and upregulated Grb2 expression, thereby accelerating osteoclast differentiation and function. Finally, PIP5k1 beta enhanced osteoblast differentiation by upregulating master gene expression through triggering smad1/5/8 signaling. Therefore, PIP5k1 beta modulates bone homeostasis and remodeling.
