Abstract(s)

Secondary osteoporosis has been associated with cancer patients undertaking Doxorubicin (DOX) chemotherapy. However, the molecular mechanisms behind DOX-induced bone loss have not been elucidated. Molecules that can protect against the adverse effects of DOX are still a challenge in chemotherapeutic treatments. We investigated the effect and mechanism of DOX in osteoclast differentiation and used the Sirt 1 activator resveratrol (RES) to counteract DOX-induced effects. RAW 264.7 cells were differentiated into osteoclasts under cotreatment with DOX and RES, alone or combined. RES treatment inhibited DOX-induced osteoclast differentiation, reduced the expression of osteoclast fusion marker Oc-stamp and osteoclast differentiation markers Rank, Trap, Ctsk and Nfatc1. Conversely, RES induced the upregulation of antioxidant genes Sod 1 and Nrf 2 while DOX significantly reduced the FoxM1 expression, resulting in oxidative stress. Treatment with the antioxidant MitoTEMPO did not influence DOX-induced osteoclast differentiation. DOX-induced osteoclastogenesis was studied using the cathepsin-K zebrafish reporter line (Tg[ctsk:DsRed]). DOX significantly increased ctsk signal, while RES cotreatment resulted in a significant reduction in ctsk positive cells. RES significantly rescued DOX-induced mucositis in this model. Additionally, DOX-exposed zebrafish displayed altered locomotor behavior and locomotory patterns, while RES significantly reversed these effects. Our research shows that RES prevents DOX-induced osteoclast fusion and activation in vitro and in vivo and reduces DOX-induced mucositis, while improving locomotion parameters.
