Résumé
Pamapimod (PAM) is a novel selective p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase inhibitor proved to be effective in rheumatoid arthritis in phase 2 clinical trial. However, its effect on osteoclast-associated osteoporosis and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we showed that PAM suppressed receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation via inhibition of p38 phosphorylation and subsequent c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (NFATc1) expression. In addition, the downregulated NFATc1 leads to reduced expression of its targeting gene disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 12 (ADAM12), which was further proven to be critical for osteoclastic bone resorption. Therefore, we treated ovariectomized (OVX) mice with PAM and revealed a protective effect of PAM on osteoporosis in vivo. In conclusion, our results demonstrated PAM can prevent OVX-induced bone loss through suppression of p38/NFATc1-induced osteoclast formation and NFATc1/ADAM12-associated bone resorption. © 2018 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.
