The mechanism driving this uncoupling is central to the pathogenesis of postmenopausal osteoporosis, which, however, remains poorly understood. We previously found that Cxcl9 secreted by osteoblasts inhibited osteogenesis in bone, while the roles of Cxcl9 on osteoclastic bone resorption and osteoporosis are unclear.Materials and Methods: Postmenopausal osteoporosis mouse model was established by bilateral surgical ovariectomy (OVX). In situ hybridization was performed to detect Cxcl9 mRNA expression in bone. ELISA assay was conducted to assess Cxcl9 concentrations in bone and serum. Cxcl9 activity was blocked by its neutralizing antibody. Micro-CT was performed to determine the effects of Cxcl9 neutralization on bone structure. Cell Migration and adhesion assay were conducted to evaluate the effects of Cxcl9 on osteoclast activity. TRAP staining and Western blot were performed to assess osteoclast differentiation. CXCR3 antagonist NBI-74,330 or ERK antagonist SCH772984 was administered to osteoclast to study the effects of Cxcl9 on CXCR3/ERK signaling.Results: Cxcl9 was expressed and secreted increasingly in OVX mice bone. Neutralizing Cxcl9 in bone marrow prevented bone loss in the mice by facilitating bone formation as well as inhibiting bone resorption. In vitro, Cxcl9 secreted from osteoblasts facilitated osteoclast precursors adhesion, migration and their differentiation into mature osteoclasts. The positive role of osteoblastic Cxcl9 on osteoclasts was eliminated by blocking CXCR3/ERK signaling in osteoclasts. Estrogen negatively regulated Cxcl9 expression and secretion in osteoblasts, explaining the increased Cxcl9 concentration in OVX mice bone.Conclusion: Our study illustrates the roles of Cxcl9 in inhibiting bone formation and stimulating bone resorption in osteoporotic bone, therefore providing a possible therapeutic target to the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.Keywords: postmenopausal osteoporosis, bone resorption, osteoclast, Cxcl9Liu ZLiang WKang DChen QOuyang ZYan HHuang BJin DChen YLi QDove Medical Pressarticlepostmenopausal osteoporosisbone resorptionosteoclastcxcl9GeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 15, Pp 1201-1212 (2020)
