| Research Abstract |
We reported that RANKL-induced suppression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), a heme-degrading enzyme, promoted caspase3 activation and HMGB1 release during osteoclastogenesis. Induction of HO-1 by tBHQ or polyphenol such as kahweol and fisetin inhibited osteoclastogenesis respectively. Since transcriptional induction of HO-1 is up-regulated by Nrf2, we studied the effect of Nrf2 on osteoclastogenesis. Studies with Nrf2 KO mice bone marrow macrophages showed enhanced formation of osteoclasts compared with wild type mice bone marrow macrophages.
