Parthenolide Has Negative Effects on In Vitro Enhanced Osteogenic Phenotypes by Inflammatory Cytokine TNF-α via Inhibiting JNK Signaling

Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) regulates inflammatory gene expression and represents a likely target for novel disease treatment approaches, including skeletal disorders. Several plant-derived sesquiterpene lactones can inhibit the activation of NF-κB. Parthenolide (PTL) is an abundant sesquiterpene...

Sumario:Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) regulates inflammatory gene expression and represents a likely target for novel disease treatment approaches, including skeletal disorders. Several plant-derived sesquiterpene lactones can inhibit the activation of NF-κB. Parthenolide (PTL) is an abundant sesquiterpene lactone, found in Mexican Indian Asteraceae family plants, with reported anti-inflammatory activity, through the inhibition of a common step in the NF-κB activation pathway. This study examined the effects of PTL on the enhanced, in vitro, osteogenic phenotypes of human periosteum-derived cells (hPDCs), mediated by the inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. PTL had no significant effects on hPDC viability or osteoblastic activities, whereas TNF-α had positive effects on the in vitro osteoblastic differentiation of hPDCs. c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling played an important role in the enhanced osteoblastic differentiation of TNF-α-treated hPDCs. Treatment with 1 µM PTL did not affect TNF-α-treated hPDCs; however, 5 and 10 µM PTL treatment decreased the histochemical detection and activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alizarin red-positive mineralization, and the expression of ALP and osteocalcin mRNA. JNK phosphorylation decreased significantly in TNF-α-treated hPDCs pretreated with PTL. These results suggested that PTL exerts negative effects on the increased osteoblastic differentiation of TNF-α-treated hPDCs by inhibiting JNK signaling.
