The present study imed to evlute the protective effects of Polygonum multiflorm (PM) on the bone tissue of rts with GC induced osteoporosis (GIO). A totl of 90 6 month old femle Sprgue Dwley rts (weight rnge, g) were rndomly divided into nine groups: Control (norml sline); prednisone (GC; 6 mg kg 1 d 1 ; Model); GC plus PMR30 (the 30% ethnol eluent frction of PM) (H) (400 mg kg 1 d 1 ); GC plus PMR30 (M) (200 mg kg 1 d 1 ); GC plus PMR30 (L) (100 mg kg 1 d 1 ); GC plus PMRF (ft soluble frction of PM) (H) (400 mg kg 1 d 1 ); GC plus PMRF (M) (200 mg kg 1 d 1 ); GC plus PMRF (L) (100 mg kg 1 d 1 ); GC plus clcitriol (CAL; µg kg 1 d 1 ; positive). Rts were dministered intrgstriclly with prednisone nd/or the forementioned extrcts for 120 dys, nd weighed once/week. The serum ws collected for detection of biochemicl mrkers. The left tibi ws used for bone histomorphometry nlysis. The right tibi ws prepred for hemtoxylin nd eosin stining.

Furthermore, simultneously increse in the level of trtrte resistnt cid phosphtse 5b nd cross linked crboxy terminl telopeptide of type I collgen in the serum, in ddition to DKK1, nd WIF1 protein expression, ws observed. PMR30 (M nd L) nd PMRF (H) groups were ble to reduce the negtive effects of GC on the bones. PMR30 (M nd L) nd PMRF (H) dose demonstrted protective effect of PM on bone tissue in GIO rts. The mechnism underlying the preventive effect of PM for the tretment of GIO my be ssocited with direct upregultion of the cnonicl Wnt/β ctenin signling pthwy. Introduction Glucocorticoids (GCs) re nti inflmmtory gents used in the tretment of vrious diseses, such s sthm, rheumtoid rthritis, nd systemic lupus erythemtosus (1 4). Although GCs hve been prescribed for mny yers, their potentil side effects (growth retrdtion, osteopeni, drenl insufficiency, etc.), cn prevent their long term use (5,6). Significntly, GC induced osteoporosis (GIO) is thought s the most severe one of these side effects becuse of the incresed frcture risk (7 9). GIO resulting from osteopeni hs been described s the most predictble nd debilitting compliction of long term GCs therpy (5,6). Therefore, the development of medictions tht prevent GIO is of clinicl significnce. Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. (PM, He Shou Wu) is kind of trditionl Chinese medicine (10). PM nd its extrcts cn be used to improve the helth of blood nd blood vessels, blcken hir, strengthen bones, neurosis nd other diseses commonly ssocited with ging (11 16). Bsed on previous evidence in our tem, we found tht PM nd its extrcts exert beneficil effects in the prevention nd tretment of osteoporosis, which hve lredy been pplied for Chin ptents (ZL ) (17). Furthermore, we hve investigted the effects of min components [(emodin nd 2,3,5,4' tetrhydroxystilbene 2 O β D glucoside (TSG)] of PM in vitro. The results showed tht emodin nd TSG cn
2 ZHOU et l: Polygonum multiflorm ALLEVIATES GLUCOCORTICOID INDUCED OSTEOPOROSIS 971 promote Bone Mrrow Mesenchyml Stem Cells (MSCs) to differentite into osteoblsts. Moreover, emodin cn inhibit MSCs differentite into dipocytes (18 21). The underlying mechnism of TSG my be relted to regultion of Wnt signling pthwy (22). However, the exct signling mechnism by which PM rescued impired bone formtion induced by GC hs not yet been investigted. The Wnt/β ctenin signling is n importnt pthwy tht is required by the growth, development nd mintennce of skeletl tissue (9,23). Wnt signls re extrcellulrly regulted by severl secreted ntgonists including secreted frizzled relted protein (sfrp), Wnt inhibitory fctor 1 (WIF1), nd dickkopf 1 (DKK1) (24). Previous evidence showed tht GCs cn promote the expression of DKK1 in cultured humn osteoblsts (25). It is known tht the cell fte of pre osteoblsts is minly determined by the Wnt/β ctenin signl pthwy (26). Therefore, the molecules which induce the ctivtion of Wnt/β ctenin signling re beneficil for the tretment of osteoporosis. PM hs been demonstrted to exert simultory effect on Wnt/β ctenin signling pthwy in vivo nd in vitro (23,27). Whether the extrcts of PM cn increse the bone mss or not in the GIO model chrcteristic of decresed bone formtion? If the extrcts could prevent GIO, nd wht's the mechnism of PM on bone metbolism? Considering the bove questions, this study ims to observe the effect nd the mechnism of PM underlying bone loss in GIO rts. Mterils nd methods Preprtion of PM extrct. The dried roots of PM were purchsed in Yulin Xing Sheng Chinese Herbl Medicine Co., Ltd. (Henn, Chin), nd were uthenticted by Professor Yuyu Liu. A voucher specimen ws deposited t the herbrium of Gungdong Key Lbortory for Reserch nd Development of Nturl Drugs, Gungdong Medicl University (Gungdong, Chin). Air dried roots of PM (56.0 kg) ws extrcted by 75% ethnol t 50~60 C, followed by rinsing with cyclohexne. The orgnic solvent of PMRF ws cquired by evportion under vcuum t 55 C. The PMRF dissolved in wter ws bsorbed by mcroporous resin D 101, nd then eluted with H 2 O, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 nd 90% ethnol successively, nd PMR30 ws prepred by the collection nd concentrtion of 30% ethnol elution (28). Animl experiments. This study ws crried out in strict ccordnce with the recommendtions in the Guide for the Cre nd Use of Lbortory Animls of Gungdong Lbortory Animl Monitoring Institute, under the Ntionl Lbortory Animl Monitoring Institute of People's Republic of Chin (29). The experiments hve been conducted ccording to protocols pproved for Specific Pthogen-Free niml cre of the Animl Center of Gungdong Medicl University, nd pproved by the Acdemic Committee on the Ethics of Animl Experiments of the Gungdong Medicl University [permit no. SYXK (Gungdong) ; Zhnjing, Chin]. The Sprgue Dwley (SD) femle rts were cclimted to locl vivrium conditions (temperture: C, humidity: 60%) nd under specific pthogen free conditions. Rts were llowed free ccess to wter nd diet. Experimentl protocols. Six month old femle SD rts weighing ( g, n=90) were rndomly divided into ten groups by weight: bsic group, control (norml sline) group, prednisone (GC, 6 mg kg 1 d 1, model) group, GC plus PMR30 (H) (400 mg kg 1 d 1 ) group, GC plus PMR30 (M) (200 mg kg 1 d 1 ) group, GC plus PMR30 (L) (100 mg kg 1 d 1 ) group, GC plus PMRF (H) (400 mg kg 1 d 1 ) group, GC plus PMRF (M) (200 mg kg 1 d 1 ) group, GC plus PMRF (L) (100 mg kg 1 d 1 ) group, GC plus clcitriol (CAL) (0.045 µg kg 1 d 1 ) (positive group). Rts were dministered intrgstriclly with prednisone nd/or the extrcts mentioned bove for 120 dys, nd weighed once per week. Rts were injected subcutneously with clcein on the 3rd, 4, 13, nd 14th dy before killed for the purpose of double lbeling in vivo, respectively (30). Rts were scrified by cridic puncture under sodium pentobrbitl nesthesi t the experimentl endpoint. The serum ws seprted for testing biochemicl mrkers. The left tibi ws used for bone histomorphometry nlysis. The right tibi ws prepred for H&E stining. The left femur ws used to test protein expression of DKK1, WIF1 nd SFRP4 using western blotting ssy (31). Serum mrkers ssy. Blood ws collected in specimen tubes nd kept t 25 C for min in verticl position for completely clotting. And then the serum ws seprted by centrifuging t 1,000 x g for 10 min nd stored t 80 C for biochemicl mrkers ssys. The serum ws seprted for testing biochemicl mrkers, including Bone specific lkline phosphtse (BAP), Hydroxyl terminl propeptide of type I procollgen (PICP), trtrte resistnt cid phosphtse 5b (TRACP 5b), Cross linked Crboxy terminl telopeptide of type I collgen (CTX I), nd DKK1.

Furthermore, previous evidence demonstrted tht extrcts of PM exhibits pretective effect on ovriectomized rts (20). In the present study, extrcts of PM (PMR30 nd PMRF) were exhibits pretective effect on bone loss in GIO rts, owing to restortion of bone micro rchitecture nd the serum levels of biomrkers relted to bone formtion. In ddition, Polygonum Multiflorm llevites GIO my be through regultion of Wnt signling pthwy to protect the bone. Physiologiclly, the secretion of endogenous GC ws regulted by hypothlmus hypophysis drenl cortex system (30), thus inhibited the secretion of growth hormone (GH) (34). However, excessive exposure to excessive exogenous cliniclly GC could induce rpidly bone loss resulting to the increse of frcture risk. In the present study, we found tht long term excessive dministrtion of prednisone cused decrese of bone formtion prmeters (MAR nd BFR/TV) in the trbeculr bone re nd decrese of growth of longitudinl bone, nd n increse of bone resorption (Oc.S/BS) (Figs. 1 nd 4). It hs generlly been thought tht GIO results from impired bone formtion s well s exggerted bone resorption. Possible pthologicl mechnisms of GIO re listed in the following: (1) impiring osteoblst or osteoclst function directly, nd (2) secondry hyperprthyroidism, due to the incresed renl excretion nd decresed intestinl bsorption of clcium (35). In this study, PMR30 (M, L) nd PMRF (H) groups were found to be effective t ttenuting GIO in vivo, s evidenced through its restortion of %Tb.Ar, Tb.Th, %L.Pm, BFR/BS, nd BFR/TV (Tbles II IV nd Fig. 3). This indictes tht the compressive strength nd mechnicl properties of the bone tissue nd the ctivity of bone formtion were enhnced. Furthermore, it would promote bone formtion nd increse bone turnover rte. This is benefit to replce bone mtrix between old nd new, nd self repir the bone micro structure, so tht fighting brittle frcture by long term use of prednisone.

PMR30 nd PMRF cn increse the prmeters of the outer membrne nd decrese the inner membrne of tibil shft in different degree (Tbles V VII nd Fig. 4). This shows tht the PM cn promote the periostel bone formtion of the outer membrne nd inhibit endostel bone resorption of the inner membrne, decrese bone turnover, nd increse the bone mss nd thickness of corticl bone, ginst long term use of GC induced %M.Ar increse, then mke corticl become thinner, thereby incresing the qulity nd bone biomechnicl properties to void frcture. Of these results we lso found the rtio of bone conversion re different proximl tibi nd tibi shft. The conversion rte of proximl tibi ws fster thn tibi shft, this my relted to blood vessel is rich in proximl tibil (37). Interestingly, we found tht longitudinl growth plte of proximl tibil were incresed in PMR30 (H, M, L) nd PMRF (H) groups (Fig. 4), compred with prednisone group. This my be relted to PM inducing the growth hormone relese. Lo hs been reported tht n emodin derivtives isolted from PM, this emodin derivtive, tenttively nmed emoghrelin, ws demonstrted to stimulte growth hormone secretion of rt primry nterior pituitry cells, presumbly vi the sme moleculr mechnism of GHSR ctivtion (38).

(CAQ) in the smple of PMR30 ws over thn PMRF, tht the longitudinl growth plte of proximl tibil were incresed in PMR30 (H, M, L) over thn PMRF (H) groups. The deficiency is not to determine the longitudinl growth rte (LGR). The disruption of the bone formtion resorption blnce plys key role in osteoporosis (39). Serum BAP is known s mrker of bone formtion, nd TRACP 5b is known s mrker of bone resorption (35). In the present study, we found tht PM recovered the serum BAP nd PICP levels nd significntly reversed the prednisone induced decrese. We hve lso found tht the serum of DKK1 nd TRACP 5b level were incresed in GC group which were consistent with the histomophometric dt (Tbles I VI). TRACP 5b minly exists in bone tissue, which is minly derived from osteoclsts, nd presents the ctivity of osteoclsts nd its function of bone resorption (36). The level of TRACP 5b ws incresed in prednisone group, suggesting tht long term use of GCs incresed osteoclst ctivity. Our study dt indicted tht PM cn promote bone formtion nd inhibit bone resorption. Futhermore, it hs been reported tht high level of DKK1 which suppresses the Wnt signl of bone formtion in osteoblsts, resulted from ctivtion of trnscription through GRE in the DKK1 gene promoter. In the present study, DKK1 ws incresed expression in prednisone group (Fig. 6). The Wnt/β ctenin signling pthwy ws lso found to be re ctivted by PM, which my be relted to the bone protective effects of PM. These results indicte tht PM exerts protective effects ginst GIO. In previous studies, GC treted nimls lso exhibited decresed BMD nd bone minerl content (BMC) (27). In ddition, in the previous experiments, we verified tht TSG, s mjor constituent in PM Thunb, showed nti osteoporosis ctivity in vitro nd in vivo (22). These dt suggest tht the bone protective effects of PM re medited through the regultion of Wnt signling pthwy. Wnt binds with specific cell surfce receptors Frizzled nd LRP5/6, thereby leding to binding with Axin, which in turn medites the proteolysis of β ctenin. DKK1 is lso known to inhibit Wnt signling by binding to LRP5/6 (41). DKK1 re receptor inhibitors which ply key role in the regultion of the Wnt signling pthwy in bone formtion (42). As expected, tretment with PM recovered the ctivity of this signling pthwy. These results suggest tht the Wnt/β ctenin signling pthwy is involved in the bone protective effects of PM ginst prednisone induced osteoporosis. In conclusion, we demonstrted tht PM cn ttenute GIO nd the mechnism of the preventive effect on GIO my be linked to direct up regultion of cnonicl Wnt/β ctenin pthwy.
