Dexamethasone-induced production of reactive oxygen species promotes apoptosis via endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy in MC3T3-E1 cells

Abstract: Apoptosis of osteoblasts, triggered by prolonged or excessive use of glucocorticoids (GCs), has been identified as a dominant contributor to the development of osteoporosis and osteonecrosis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying GC-induced apoptosis are multifaceted and remain to be fully elucidated. The present study aimed to explore the correlation between dexamethasone (DEX)-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), autophagy and apoptosis in MC3T3-E1 osteoblast-like cells. Cell viability was assessed … Show more

“…Secondly, DUSP1 is sensitive to oxidative stress, and the phosphatase activity can be reduced. Notably, oxidative stress can be cause or consequence of the disease, and GCs themselves can contribute to the production of oxidative stress (96). Thus, although we may find techniques to increase DUSP1 abundance, it may be non-functional due to oxidation.…”

“…Autophagy is an auto‐catabolic recycling process of eukaryotic cells that is frequently dysregulated in cancer, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, aging, etc. Our preliminary results show that SANFH is associated with autophagy, and the autophagy‐related Beclin 1 and microtubule‐associated protein 1 light chain 3 (MAP1LC3) are upregulated in osteoblasts. Primary cilia are sensitive cellular antennae that sense and transmit external signals, and coordinate the responsive mechanisms.…”

“…Our results support the hypothesis that dexamethasone successfully interferes with new bone formation. According to previous studies, dexamethasone is able to inhibit the production of collagen and fibronectin promoting osteoblast apoptosis and autophagy of osteoblast-like cells (38).…”
