Estrogen-mediated downregulation of HIF-1[alpha] signaling in B lymphocytes influences postmenopausal bone loss
Abstract: In the bone marrow, B cells and bone-resorbing osteoclasts colocalize and form a specific microenvironment. How B cells functionally influence osteoclasts and bone architecture is poorly understood. Using genetically modified mice and high-throughput analyses, we demonstrate that prolonged HIF-1α signaling in B cells leads to enhanced RANKL production and osteoclast formation. In addition, deletion of HIF-1α in B cells prevents estrogen deficiency-induced bone loss in mice. Mechanistically, estrogen controls HIF-1α protein stabilization through HSP70-mediated degradation in bone marrow B cells. The stabilization of HIF-1α protein in HSP70-deficient bone marrow B cells promotes RANKL production and osteoclastogenesis. Induction of HSP70 expression by geranylgeranylacetone (GGA) administration alleviates ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis. Moreover, RANKL gene expression has a positive correlation with HIF1A expression in human B cells. In conclusion, HIF-1α signaling in B cells is crucial for the control of osteoclastogenesis, and the HSP70/HIF-1α axis may serve as a new therapeutic target for osteoporosis
