LY3023414 inhibits both osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis through the PI3K/Akt/GSK3 signalling pathway
AIMS: LY3023414 is a novel oral phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) dual inhibitor designed for advanced cancers, for which a phase II clinical study was completed in March 2020; however, little is known about its effect on bone modelling/remodelling. In this st...

Sumario: | AIMS: LY3023414 is a novel oral phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) dual inhibitor designed for advanced cancers, for which a phase II clinical study was completed in March 2020; however, little is known about its effect on bone modelling/remodelling. In this study, we aimed to explore the function of LY3023414 in bone modelling/remodelling. METHODS: The function of LY3023414 was explored in the context of osteogenesis (bone formation by osteoblasts) and osteoclastogenesis (osteoclast formation and bone resorption). Murine preosteoblast MC3T3-E1 cell line and murine bone marrow-derived macrophage cells (BMMs) were subjected to different treatments. An MTS cell proliferation assay was used to examine the cytotoxicity. Thereafter, different induction conditions were applied, such as MCSF and RANKL for osteoclastogenesis and osteogenic media for osteogenesis. Specific staining, a bone resorption assay, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) were subsequently used to evaluate the effect of LY3023414. Moreover, small interfering RNA (siRNA) was applied to knockdown Akt1 or Akt2 for further validation. Lastly, western blot was used to examine the exact mechanism of action. RESULTS: LY3023414 attenuated PI3K/protein kinase B (Akt)/GSK3-dependent activation of β-catenin and nuclear factor-activated T cell 1 (NFATc1) during osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis, respectively. LY3023414 mainly inhibited osteoclast formation instead of mature osteoclast function. Moreover, it suppressed osteogenesis both in the early stage of differentiation and late stage of calcification. Similarly, gene knockdown of Akt isoforms by siRNA downregulated osteogenic and osteoclastogenic processes, indicating that Akt1 and Akt2 acted synergistically. CONCLUSION: LY3023414 can suppress osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis through inhibition of the PI3K/Akt/GSK3 signalling pathway, which highlights the potential benefits and side effects of LY3023414 for future clinical applications.
