Diabetic osteoporosis (DOP) is one of the complications of diabetes, with high morbidity, and high disability rate. Here, we established a diabetic rat model and administered lycopene to observe its effect on DOP. Our results showed that ten weeks lycopene treatment lowered blood glucose, improved diabetic induced polydipsia, overeating and body weight loss. Lycopene treatment also enhanced bone mineral density, restored bone mechanical and bone Micro-CT parameters of diabetic rats. Subsequently, lycopene decreased serum inflammatory cytokines levels and increased serum anti-oxidant indicators levels. Moreover, lycopene reduced the number of bone marrow adipocytes, and osteoclasts numbers of diabetic rats. The serum bone turnover markers levels were down-regulated after lycopene treatment. Meanwhile, the bone and serum OPG, RUNX 2 expression levels were up-regulated by lycopene in diabetic rats, and the OPG/RANKL ratio was also up-regulated. This study showed that lycopene could ameliorate diabetic induced bone loss via anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidation, and increasing OPG/RANKL ratio in diabetic rats. Lycopene could be used for nutritional intervention in patients with diabetic osteoporosis.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) can lead to multiple complications. T2DM-related bone damage has been linked to abnormal bone turnover, but it cannot fully explain the mechanisms of T2DM bone disease. This study attempts to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of poor bone quality in T2DM. Hence, T2DM model was induced by a high-fat diet combined with a single streptozotocin injection in 7-week-old male SD rats. Osteoblasts derived from SD rats were cultured in high glucose to mimic hyperglycemia. Low bone turnover was observed in T2DM bone with elevated levels of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and receptor for AGEs (RAGE). Additionally, higher levels of oxidative stress and inflammatory factors were found in T2DM bone. AGEs content in bone was pairwise correlated with RAGE, hydrogen peroxide, and inflammatory factors. Serum levels of RAGE, oxidative stress, and inflammatory factors were higher in T2DM, while AGEs content tended to be lower. Besides, 35 differentially expressed metabolites were screened in T2DM serum. Osteoblasts exposed to high glucose displayed analogous abnormal changes in these biomarkers. Thus, low bone turnover in T2DM might be partially due to excess oxidative stress and inflammation induced by AGE-RAGE signaling. Furthermore, these biomarker levels in serum were mostly consistent with bone, demonstrating their possibility for predicting bone quality in T2DM.

Glucocorticoids have been widely used in multiple inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. However, long-term glucocorticoid therapy may result in osteoporosis. The present study aimed to evaluate the potential therapeutic effects and investigate the underlying mechanisms of Daphnetin (Daph) on glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP). In vivo, male Sprague Dawley rats were intramuscularly injected with dexamethasone (DEX) to induce GIOP and Daph was given intraperitoneally. Bone histological changes, mineral content, microstructure parameters and bone turnover markers were detected. Gut microbiota composition and intestinal barrier function were further assessed. In vitro, MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts were treated with DEX and the abilities of Daph on osteoblast proliferation, differentiation and mineralization were assessed. A Wnt signaling inhibitor, XAV939 , was added additionally to evaluate the effect of Daph on Wnt signaling. The results showed that in vivo, Daph increased the DEX-induced reduction in body weight gain, bone mineral content and microstructure parameters and restored the levels of bone turnover markers in GIOP rats. In vitro, Daph promoted osteoblast proliferation, differentiation and mineralization in DEX-treated MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts. Moreover, Daph activated the Wnt/GSK-3β/β-catenin signaling pathway. XAV939 successfully abolished the beneficial effects of Daph on GIOP in vitro . Besides, Daph showed improvement on gut microbiota disorder and intestinal barrier dysfunction post GIOP. Collectively, these data demonstrated that Daph effectively ameliorates GIOP and the possible mechanism may be that Daph activated Wnt/GSK-3β/β-catenin signaling.
