| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Tthe effect of DPP-4 inhibition on LPS-induced osteoclast formation in vivo, we subcutaneously injected LPS with or without DPP-4 inhibitor into mouse calvariae. The mean number of TRAP-positive osteoclasts in the group that underwent LPS and DPP-4 inhibitor co-administration was significantly lower than in the group that underwent LPS administration alone. TRAP and cathepsin K mRNA expression levels were significantly lower in the LPS and DPP-4 inhibitor co-administered group, compared with the LPS-administered group.In vitro, there were no direct effects of DPP-4 inhibitor or DPP-4 on RANKL- and TNF-α-induced osteoclastogenesis, or LPS-induced RANKL expression in stromal cells. Nevertheless, macrophages from LPS and DPP-4 inhibitor co-administrated mice exhibited lower TNF-α mRNA expression than macrophages from LPS-only mice. However, TNF-α mRNA expression was not reduced in LPS and DPP-4 inhibitor co-treated macrophages in vitro, compared with macrophages treated with LPS alone.
