    Abstract:
    Estrogen deficiency leads to marked increases in osteoclastic bone resorption, but the exact mechanism is unclear. Proteomic analysis was performed on the femur and tibia of ovariectomy (OVX) and sham-operated Sprague-Dawley rats using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometer (MS). Among the nine proteins differentially expressed between OVX and sham-operated rats, heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) was upregulated by 2.6-fold in the bones of OVX rats, and the plasma concentration of HSP60 was also significantly increased in OVX rats. Estrogen deficiency increases in secretions of interleukin (IL)-1beta and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha in T cell and osteoclasts (OCs) lineages, IL-1beta and TNF-alpha stimulated the production and secretion of HSP60 from OCs lineages. IL-1 receptor antagonist (ra), TNF-blocking antibody (Ab), and estradiol (E(2)) significantly suppressed the OVX-induced increase in plasma concentrations of HSP60 in mice. HSP60 potentiated OC formation and bone resorption, and pretreatment with HSP60-blocking Ab markedly reduced the potentiation of OC formation and bone resorption by IL-1beta- and TNF-alpha. HSP60 upregulated the expression levels of toll-like receptor (TLR)-2 in bone marrow macrophage (BMMvarphi), and pretreatment with a TLR-2-blocking Ab almost completely inhibited HSP60- or cytokine-induced potentiation of OC formation and/or bone resorption. In conclusion, HSP60 and TLR-2 are novel mediators of estrogen-deficiency-induced bone loss.
