ABSTRACT

Several flavonoids have been shown to exert anti-osteoporosis activity. However, the structure-activity relationship and the mechanism of anti-osteoporosis activity of flavonoids remain unknown. In this study, we prepared a series of novel homoisoflavonoid (HIF) derivatives to evaluate their inhibitory effects on osteoclastogenesis using TRAP-activity in vitro assay. Then, the preliminary structure-activity relationship was studied. Among the evaluated novel flavonoids, derivative 5g exerted the most inhibitory bioactivity on primary osteoclast differentiation without interfering with osteogenesis. It was hence selected for further in vitro, in vivo and mechanism of action investigation. Results show that 5g likely directly binds to the fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1), decreasing the activation of ERK1/2 and IκBα/NF-κB signaling pathways, which in turn blocks osteoclastogenesis in vitro and osteoclastic bone loss in vivo. Our study shows that homoisoflavonoid (HIF) derivatives 5g can serve as a potential novel candidate for treating osteoporosis via inhibition of FGFR1.

ABSTRACT

Abnormal osteoclast differentiation causes various bone disorders such as osteoporosis. Targeting the formation and activation of osteoclasts has been recognized as an effective approach for preventing osteoporosis. Herein, we synthesized eleven 2-NMPA derivatives which are (2-(2-chlorophenoxy)-N-(4-alkoxy-2-morpholinophenyl) acetamides, and evaluated their suppression effects on osteoclastogenesis in vitro by using TRAP-staining assay. Among the synthesized eleven novel 2-NMPAs, 4-(2-(2-chlorophenoxy)acetamido)-3-morpholinophenyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (11b), 4-(2-(2-chlorophenoxy) acetamido)-3-morpholinophenyl-3-(N-(2-oxo-2-((2-(phenylthio) phenyl) amino) ethyl)methylsulfonamido)benzoate (11d), and 4-(2-(2-chlorophenoxy) acetamido)-3-morpholinophenyl 4-acetamidobenzenesulfonate (11h) displayed highly inhibitory bioactivity on the differentiation of primary osteoclasts. 11h was selected for further investigation of the inhibitory effects and potential mechanism involved in the suppression of osteoclastogenesis. In vitro analysis suggested that 11h inhibited osteoclastogenesis with an IC50 of 358.29 nM, decreased the formation of F-action belts and bone resorption, without interfering cell viability and osteoblast differentiation. Furthermore, the mRNA expressions of osteoclast-specific genes such as Acp5, Nfatc1, Dc-stamp, Atp6v0d2, Mmp9, and Ctsk significantly decreased following 11h treatment. RANKL-induced osteoclast-specific proteins analysis demonstrated that 11h suppressed osteoclast differentiation by downregulating of RANKL-mediated TRAF6 expression, followed by inactivation of PI3K/AKT and IκBα/NF-κB signaling pathways. Finally, 11h inhibited ovariectomy-induced bone loss in vivo. Therefore, the current work highlighted the therapeutic potential of 11h as an anti-osteoporosis lead compound.
