3′-Sialyllactose alleviates bone loss by regulating bone homeostasis
Abstract Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disease that results in an increased risk of fractures. However, there is no definitive cure, warranting the development of potential therapeutic agents. 3′-Sialyllactose (3′-SL) in human milk regulates many biological functions. However, its effect on bone...

description | Abstract Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disease that results in an increased risk of fractures. However, there is no definitive cure, warranting the development of potential therapeutic agents. 3′-Sialyllactose (3′-SL) in human milk regulates many biological functions. However, its effect on bone metabolism remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the effect of 3′-SL on bone homeostasis. Treatment of human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) with 3′-SL enhanced osteogenic differentiation and inhibited adipogenic differentiation of hBMSCs. RNA sequencing showed that 3′-SL enhanced laminin subunit gamma-2 expression and promoted osteogenic differentiation via the phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase/protein kinase B signaling pathway. Furthermore, 3′-SL inhibited the receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand-induced osteoclast differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages through the nuclear factor κB and mitogen‑activated protein kinase signaling pathway, ameliorated osteoporosis in ovariectomized mice, and positively regulated bone remodeling. Our findings suggest 3′-SL as a potential drug for osteoporosis. |
