外文摘要：Wear debris-induced osteolysis, a major contributing factor of orthopedic implant aseptic loosening, affects long-term survival of orthopedic prostheses following joint replacement and revision surgery. Pathogenic effects of wear debris on various cell types including macrophages/monocytes, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts have been well studied. However, the interactions between wear debris particles and osteocytes, which make up over 90% of all bone cells, have not been clearly illustrated. Here, we explored the biological effects of endotoxin-free beta-tricalciumphosphate (beta-TCP) wear particles with the average diameter of 1.997 mu m (range 1.3-3.2 mu m) on osteocytes in vitro. Our results showed that 24 h or 48 h incubation of beta-TCP particles dose-dependently inhibited cell viability of osteocytes MLO-Y4. Alternatively, beta-TCP particles treatment for 24 h significantly increased the osteocytic marker SOST/sclerostin mRNA expression and the release of inflammatory cytokines including TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta into the culture media, but decreased the mRNA expression of another osteocytic marker dentin matrix protein-1 (DMP-1). Furthermore, these osteocytes dysfunctions were accompanied by F-actin disassembly, cell apoptosis, sustained enhancement of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial injury upon beta-TCP particles stimulation. In addition, beta-TCP particles also caused Akt inactivation at Ser473 resides with a dose- and time-dependent pattern. Taken together, beta-TCP wear particles could cause osteocytes dysfunctions, which may be mediated by apoptotic death and Akt inactivation in MLO-Y4 cells. These findings strongly suggest that osteocytes may play an important role in the beta-TCP wear particles-induced osteolysis, and provide valuable insights for understanding the molecular mechanisms of osteocytes death involved in tissue damage during bone cement and intolerance of cemented prostheses.
