Abstract
Diabetic osteoporosis is a common health problem that is associated with a disruption in bone metabolism. A2A adenosine receptor (A2AAR) signaling seems to play a critical role in bone homeostasis. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of A2AAR stimulation on the treatment of diabetic-induced osteoporosis versus insulin treatment. Forty adult male rats were allocated into control (C), untreated diabetic-induced osteoporosis (DIO), insulin-treated DIO (I-DIO), and A2AAR agonist-treated DIO (A-DIO) groups. Both insulin and A2AAR agonist treatments significantly increased serum insulin level, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity, bone expression of osteoprotegerin (Opg) and β-catenin (Ctnnb1), and cortical and trabecular bone thickness, whereas they decreased serum fasting glucose, malondialdehyde (MDA), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), bone expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (Rankl), runt-related transcription factor-2 (Runx2), and sclerostin (Sost) versus the untreated DIO groups. A2AAR agonist treatment was more effective than insulin in ameliorating diabetic osteoporosis. This might be attributed to the upregulation of β-catenin gene expression, enhancing its anabolic effect on bone, in addition to the A2AAR agonist's anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diabetic effects.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
