Abstract
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and T2D are associated with skeletal fragility, contributing to increased fracture risk. Whereas decreased bone mineral density (BMD) is common in T1D, individuals with T2D tend to have normal or elevated BMD. These differences are incompletely understood but may stem from distinct mechanisms. Previously, we showed that obese male C57BL/6 mice (7-month-old) with T2D exhibit poor bone quality and accelerated osteocyte senescence with a unique senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). We hypothesized that, similar to T2D, senescent osteocytes and additional senescent bone-resident cells (e.g., immune cells) accumulate in T1D. Consistent with previous studies, we studied a juvenile onset (2-month-old) T1D model, where following 8 weeks, male C57BL/6 mice with T1D displayed deteriorated bone microarchitecture, increased cortical porosity, and reduced bone strength. Unexpectedly, osteocytes, myeloid cells, T cells, and B cells in T1D mice showed no significant changes in key senescence/SAPS markers. Therefore, although T1D mice display several aspects of poor bone quality, consistent with juvenile-onset T1D in humans, senescent cells have yet to accumulate at substantial levels in bone at this young age. Future studies should include female mice and test whether senescence requires a later onset of T1D, a longer disease duration, or worse glycemic control.
期刊介绍:
Calcified Tissue International and Musculoskeletal Research publishes original research and reviews concerning the structure and function of bone, and other musculoskeletal tissues in living organisms and clinical studies of musculoskeletal disease. It includes studies of cell biology, molecular biology, intracellular signalling, and physiology, as well as research into the hormones, cytokines and other mediators that influence the musculoskeletal system. The journal also publishes clinical studies of relevance to bone disease, mineral metabolism, muscle function, and musculoskeletal interactions.
