Glucocorticoids induce femoral head necrosis in rats through the ROS/JNK/c-Jun pathway.

Abstract:

:Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a common clinical disease with a high disability rate. Apoptosis of osteoblasts caused by high-dose short-term or low-dose long-term glucocorticoid (GC) administration is the biological basis of steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head (SANFH). The pathogenesis of SANFH has not yet been fully elucidated, and there is currently a lack of effective clinical treatments. Here, we investigated the role of the reactive oxygen species (ROS)/JNK/c-Jun signaling pathway in SANFH. Dexamethasone (Dex) was used to induce apoptosis in osteoblasts, and this resulted in a significant increase in levels of p-JNK, p-c-Jun, Bax, caspase-3, caspase-9, cytochrome C, Beclin-1, and LC3, and a decrease in levels of P62 and Bcl-2. In addition, intracellular ROS levels were increased and mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased. Administration of 3-MA, an autophagy inhibitor, attenuated Dex-mediated changes in autophagy and apoptosis. A rat model of ONFH exhibited severe bone trabecular hollow bone pits along with a significant increase in femoral head cell apoptosis compared with the control group. Additionally, micro-CT analysis showed that both bone tissue content and femoral head integrity were significantly reduced in the ONFH group. Furthermore, 3-MA treatment decreased the effect of Dex on GC-induced ONFH and osteoblast apoptosis in rats and could counteract microstructure destruction due to femoral head necrosis. In summary, our data suggest that GC can induce osteoblast apoptosis and autophagy through the ROS/JNK/c-Jun signaling pathway, which contributes to ONFH.
