Epigallocatechin gallate suppresses expression of receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) in Staphylococcus aureus infection in osteoblast-like NRG cells

Abstract: Catechin, a constituent of tea, possesses various bioactivities. In particular, the most abundant catechin in tea is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), which has an anti-inflammatory effect. In the present study, the usability of EGCg for osteomyelitis treatment was examined. Osteomyelitis is a difficult disease to cure, partly due to bone lysis caused by infected osteoblasts. Since bone lysis is promoted by proinflammatory cytokines and the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), osteoblasts were infected w… Show more

“…Bacterial pathogens can stimulate osteoclastogenesis, either directly or indirectly, which can potentiate bone resorption, leading to bone destruction (31,36 (19). Based on these findings, we undertook this study to evaluate the production of RANK-L from S. aureus-infected primary osteoblasts.…”

“…), there are also some effects that may contribute to the total antimicrobial effect in infected individuals. These effects include inhibition of inflammation (particularly inflammation caused by oxidative stress, such as vascular), more specifically, by increasing the synthesis of nitric oxide (Yamakuchi et al, 2008), inhibiting angiotensin II and IL-6-induced C-reactive protein expression (Li et al, 2012), suppression of IL-6 and RANKL production in infected osteoblast-like cells (Ishida et al, 2007), inhibiting IL-8 production (Hirao et al, 2010), and inhibiting hyaluronidase activity (activated by chronic inflammation) by inhibition of IL-12 (Adcocks et al, 2002). …”

“…Takai et al [160] found that EGCG significantly reduced the IL-6 synthesis and IL-6 mRNA expression induced by platelet-derived growth factor-BB through suppression of the SAPK/JNK pathway in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. Moreover, Ishida [161] reported that EGCG controls inflammatory bone resorption in chronic osteomyelitis by inhibiting the production of IL-6 and RANKL in osteoblasts infected with S. aureus .…”
