N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification plays a crucial role in the progression of osteoporosis (OP). The study aimed to explore the effects of methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) in OP. The levels of METTL3, LINC00657, miR-144-3p and BMPR1B were detected using qPCR. Osteogenesis was assessed using alizarin red and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining assays. The protein expression of Bglap, Runx2 and Col1a1 was measured by western blot. The targets of LINC00657 and miR-144-3p were screened by bioinformatic analysis. The interaction between miR-144-3p and LINC00657 or BMPR1B was analyzed by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down assay. The results showed that METTL3 was downregulated in OP. METTL3 mediated m6A methylation of LINC00657 to promote the development of osteogenesis. Further study indicated that LINC00657 functioned as a ceRNA to upregulate BMPR1B via sponging miR-144-3p. Additionally, BMPR1B knockdown alleviated the effects of METTL3 on osteogenesis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Taken together, METTL3 facilitated osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs via the LINC00657/miR-144-3p/BMPR1B axis. Our findings may provide a novel insight of m6A methylation in the development of OP.

This study examines the effects of pulsed wave photobiomodulation (pwPBM) on the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAP). Using 810 nm near-infrared (NIR) light with 300 Hz pulses and a 30% duty cycle, pwPBM was applied at a total energy density of 750 mJ/cm. Osteogenesis was evaluated through both in vitro and in vivo analyses.

Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic skeletal disorder characterized by decreased bone mineral density and a heightened risk of fractures. Therapies for OP have primarily focused on balancing bone formation and bone resorption, but enhancing the remineralization of osteoporotic bone is also a key strategy for effective repair. Recent insights into biomineralization mechanisms have highlighted the essential role of mineral-containing extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by osteoblasts in promoting bone marrow mesenchymal stromal/stem cell (BMSC) differentiation and initiating matrix mineralization.

Zinc (Zn) and its alloys are promising biomaterials for orthopedic applications due to their degradability and mechanical properties. Zn plays a crucial role in bone formation, but excessive early release may cause cytotoxicity and inhibit osseointegration. To solve this, we developed a near-infrared (NIR) light-controlled polycaprolactone/copper-sulfur (PCL/CuS) coating that slows degradation and enhances osseointegration of Zn alloys.

Background/purpose: Titanium dioxide nanotube (TNT) structures have been shown to enhance the early osseointegration of dental implants. Nevertheless, the optimal nanotube diameter for promoting osteogenesis remains unclear due to variations in cell types and manufacture of nanotubes. This study aimed to evaluate the differences in MC3T3-E1 and Saos-2 cells behavior on nanotubes of varying diameters.

Implanted biomaterials release inorganic ions that trigger inflammatory responses, which recruit immune cells whose biochemical signals affect bone tissue regeneration. In this study, we evaluated how mouse macrophages (RAW264, RAW) and mesenchymal stem cells (KUSA-A1, MSCs) respond to seven types of ions (silicon, calcium, magnesium, zinc, strontium, copper, and cobalt) that reportedly stimulate cells related to bone formation. The collagen synthesis, alkaline phosphatase activity, and osteocalcin production of the MSCs varied by ion dose and type after culture in the secretome of RAW cells.
