Periostin, as a unique extracellular matrix, is mainly produced during ontogeny and in adult connective tissues that bear mechanical loads, such as heart valves, skin, periodontal ligaments, tendons, and bones. By binding to the integrin on the cell surface and activating Wnt/β-catenin, NF-κB, Fak and other signaling pathways, it regulates the tissues positively or negatively, and also has different effects on the occurrence and development of various diseases. Periostin is an important factor, which can promote cell proliferation, stimulate tissue repair and maintain the integrity of the structure and function of connective tissue. It also promotes the formation, regeneration and repairation of bone. Recent studies have shown that periostin is important in bone metabolic diseases. The increased expression of periostin can affect bone mineral density at different sites, and its relationship with traditional biochemical markers of bone turnover has not been conclusively established. This article reviews the research results and potential applications of periostin in osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis is an inflammatory disease characterised by low bone mass and quality, resulting in weaker bone strength and fragility fractures. Periostin is a matricellular protein expressed in the periosteum of bone by osteoblasts. It regulates cell recruitment and differentiation in response to fracture and contributes to extracellular matrix (ECM) formation.

Purpose Of Review: To critically summarize evidence on the potential role of osteokines in the pathogenesis and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
Recent Findings: There are emerging data supporting that certain osteokines, which are specific bone-derived proteins, may beneficially or adversely affect hepatic metabolism, and their alterations in the setting of osteoporosis or other bone metabolic diseases may possibly contribute to the development and progression of NAFLD. There is evidence showing a potential bidirectional association between NAFLD and bone metabolism, which may imply the existence of a liver-bone axis.

Background Although the correlation between reduced skin thickness and reduced bone density has been investigated, no study has evaluated skin thickness and osteoproliferative diseases, including ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH). Methodology This retrospective cohort study consisted of 99 consecutive patients aged ≥60 years treated for spinal surgery at our hospital between January 2022 and March 2023. Skin thickness was measured at the dorsal side of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebrae on the sagittal cross-section image of whole-spine CT.

Perimenopausal period causes a significant amount of bone loss, which results in primary osteoporosis (OP). The Periostin (Postn) may play important roles in the pathogenesis of OP after ovariectomized (OVX) rats. To identify the roles of Postn in the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell derived osteoblasts (BMSC-OB) in OVX rats, we investigated the expression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways in BMSC-OB and the effects of Postn on bone formation by development of BMSC-OB cultures.
