α-Lipoic Acid Inhibits Inflammatory Bone Resorption by Suppressing Prostaglandin E2 Synthesis

Abstract: α-Lipoic acid (LA) has been intensely investigated as a therapeutic agent for several pathological conditions, including diabetic polyneuropathy. In the present study, we examined the effects of LA on osteoclastic bone loss associated with inflammation. LA significantly inhibited IL-1-induced osteoclast formation in cocultures of mouse osteoblasts and bone marrow cells, but LA had only a marginal effect on osteoclastogenesis from bone marrow macrophages induced by receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL). LA… Show more

“…LPS-stimulated LTB 4 from primary human monocytes/macrophages (U937 macrophages did not secrete LTB 4 ) was only weakly inhibited by the ginger extract. The double inhibition of prostanoid secretion and IL-1b by ginger phenylpropanoids is interesting because IL-1b is known to reinforce PGE 2 synthesis (70), which plays multiple roles in inflammatory processes (71,72).…”

“…To generate osteoclasts, BMMs (4 ϫ 10 4 cells/well) were cultured for 4 days with M-CSF (30 ng/ml) and RANKL (100 ng/ml) in 48-well (1 ml/well) tissue culture plates. To generate osteoclasts from the coculture of primary osteoblasts and bone marrow cells, primary osteoblasts from newborn ICR mouse calvariae were prepared as described previously (Ha et al, 2006). Bone marrow cells (3 ϫ 10 5 cells/well) and primary osteoblasts (2.5 ϫ 10 4 cells/well) were cocultured for 6 to 7 days in 1 ml of ␣-MEM complete medium in 48-well tissue culture plates.…”

“…An IL-1-induced mouse calvarial bone loss model was used as described previously (Ha et al, 2006). In brief, a collagen sponge treated with vehicle (PBS) or IL-1 (2 g) was implanted over calvarial bone in groups of 10 mice (6-weekold male ICR mice).…”

“…Histological sections (5 mm) were prepared, stained for TRAP, and counterstained using methyl green (0.5% [pH 4]). To study the effects of MK886 on LPS-induced bone loss in vivo, bone loss was induced by LPS administration using previously described methods (18), with a slight modification. Mice received i.p.…”
