    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic bone disease worldwide. The decrease in bone mass is primarily accompanied by a decrease in the number and activity of osteoblasts. Peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) are proteins that detect extremely low peroxide levels and act as sensors that regulate oxidation signals, thereby regulating various cellular functions. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of PRDX1 and estrogen on the biological behavior of osteoblasts, including their proliferation and differentiation. METHODS: Ovariectomized (OVX) mice were used to establish a model of osteoporosis and perform morphological and immunohistochemical analyses. Prdx1 gene knockout and overexpression were performed in mouse MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts to assess proliferation and osteogenic differentiation using the cell counting kit-8, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, western blotting (WB), Alizarin Red S staining, etc. RESULTS: The OVX mice exhibited osteoporosis and PRDX1 expression increased. In vitro experiments showed that during the osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts, PRDX1 expression decreased, while the expression of COL1 and RUNX2 increased. After Prdx1 knockout, the proliferation of osteoblasts decreased; expression of Runx2, ALP, and COL1 increased; and mineralization increased. However, after Prdx1 overexpression, osteoblast proliferation was enhanced, whereas osteogenic differentiation and mineralization were inhibited. Estrogen inhibits the H2O2-induced decrease in osteoblastic differentiation and increase in PRDX1 expression. WB revealed that when LY294002 inhibited the AKT signaling pathway, the levels of p-AKT1, p-P65, and PRDX1 protein in MC3T3-E1 cells decreased. However, when pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) inhibited the NF-κB signaling pathway, the expression of p-AKT1 and PRDX1 did not change except for a significant reduction of p-P65 expression. Furthermore, PDTC reversed the decreased expression of RUNX2, ALP, and COL1 caused by PRDX1 overexpression. CONCLUSIONS: PRDX1 promotes the proliferation of osteoblasts and inhibits osteogenic differentiation. Estrogen regulated osteoblastic differentiation by affecting the expression of PRDX1 in osteoblasts, and the effect is related to the AKT1/NF-κB signaling pathway.
