MicroRNA-26a Regulates RANKL-Induced Osteoclast Formation

Abstract: Osteoclasts are unique cells responsible for the resorption of bone matrix. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the regulation of a wide range of physiological processes. Here, we examined the role of miR-26a in RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. The expression of miR-26a was up-regulated by RANKL at the late stage of osteoclastogenesis. Ectopic expression of an miR-26a mimic in osteoclast precursor cells attenuated osteoclast formation, actin-ring formation, and bone resorption by suppressing the expression of … Show more

“…Murine osteoclasts were prepared from bone marrow cells as previously described ( Kim et al, 2007 ; 2015 ). In brief, mouse bone marrow cells were isolated from tibiae and femurs of 6–8 week old ICR mice by flushing the bone marrows with α-minimal essential medium (α-MEM).…”

“…Data suggest that this may be through epigenetic regulation [ 4 , 7 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 ]. An epigenetic regulation of the DCSTAMP gene is interesting, because it may be a tool to regulate this powerful regulator of osteoclast multinucleation both through DNA methylation [ 7 , 81 ], histone methylation [ 86 ], and miRNA [ 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 ]. Studies of Møller et al [ 4 , 7 ] have shown that DNA methylation levels of the DCSTAMP gene are lower with increasing age and that this results in an elevated gene expression, multinucleation, and bone resorptive activity of osteoclasts in vitro.…”
