Inhibition of osteoblastic metalloproteinases in mice prevents bone loss induced by oestrogen deficiency

Abstract: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are key mediators in extra-cellular matrix remodelling and implicated primarily in bone growth, and particularly in osteoclastic bone resorption. We hypothesise that MMPs have a role in the increased bone remodelling resulting from oestrogen deficiency. Transgenic (TG) mice overexpressing TIMP-1 in their osteoblastic cells and their wild-type (WT) littermates were ovariectomised. One month after surgery, bone mineral density (BMD) and bone microarchitecture were assessed. Prima… Show more

“…This finding was consistent with our previous studies indicating that the main effect of TIMP-1 over-expression is to reduce bone resorption. Indeed, we demonstrated that the increase in bone mass induced by TIMP-1 over-expression in osteoblasts in young growing females (Geoffroy et al, 2004), its amplifying effect on the anabolic treatment with PTH (Merciris et al, 2007a), and its prevention of the bone loss induced by ovariectomy (Schiltz et al, 2008) were all related to decreased bone resorption parameters and in vivo activity. We now present further evidence showing that the decrease in bone resorption is not only associated with a decrease in osteoclast activity, but rather remarkably, with a decrease in osteoclast differentiation both in vivo and in vitro.…”

“…Osteoblastic MMPs are important in both normal and pathological remodeling of bone, and in the balance between bone formation and resorption (Liu et al, 1995;Varghese, 2006). Using mice over-expressing TIMP-1, we showed previously that PTH-induced bone resorption is reduced in vivo (Merciris et al, 2007a), and that the bone loss induced by E2 deficiency is markedly reduced due to decreased osteoclast differentiation and function (Schiltz et al, 2008).…”

“…The inhibition of TIMP-1 expression in hMSCs significantly promoted cell growth and differentiation into adult cells of the osteogenic lineage, indicating that TIMP-1 is an endogenous attenuator of these processes. Previous reports have shown that TIMP-1 inhibits epithelial cell proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation (23,24) but stimulates differentiation in hematopoietic progenitor cells, B cells, and Burkitt lymphoma cells (25)(26)(27). However, none of these studies has provided information regarding the underlying molecular mechanisms.…”

“…Furthermore, mice lacking MMP-13 are reported to have increased bone volume due to decreased osteoclast formation and function, but also demonstrate enhanced osteoblast function [56]; [57]. TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 inhibit bone resorption in vitro ; and in young mice, TIMP-1 over-expression reduces bone resorption resulting in increased bone mass [58]; [59]. Synthetic inhibitors of MMPs and TIMP-2 can also inhibit osteoclast migration to bone resorption site, thus decreasing bone remodeling [60].…”
