PIP5k1 β controls bone homeostasis through modulating both osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation

PIP5K1{beta} is crucial to generation of phosphotidylinosotol (4, 5) P2. PIP5K1{beta} participates in numerous cellular activities, such as B cell and platelet activation, cell phagocytosis and endocytosis, cell apoptosis, and cytoskeletal organization. In the present work, we aimed to make insight into the function of PIP5K1{beta} in osteoclastogenesis and osteogenesis to provide promising strategies for osteoporosis prevention and treatment. We discovered that PIP5k1{beta} deletion in mice resulted in obvious bone loss and PIP5K1{beta} was highly expressed both during osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation, besides, PIP5K1{beta} deletion enhanced the proliferation and migration of BMMs to promote osteoclast differentiation. PIP5k1{beta}-/- osteoclast exhibited normal cytoskeleton architecture but stronger resorption activity. PIP5k1{beta} deficiency also promoted activation of MAPK and Akt signaling, enhanced TRAF6 and c-Fos expression, facilitated the expression and nuclear translocation of NFATC1 and upregulated Grb2 expression, thereby accelerating osteoclast differentiation and function. Finally, PIP5K1{beta} enhanced osteoblast differentiation by upregulating master genes expression through triggering smad1/5/8 signaling. Thereby, PIP5K1{beta} modulate bone homeostasis and remodeling.
