ABSTRACT
Exercise in later life is important for bone health and delays the progression of osteoporotic bone loss. Osteocytes are the major bone cells responsible for transforming mechanical stimuli into cellular signals through their highly specialized lacunocanalicular networks (LCN). Osteocyte activity and LCN degenerate with aging, thus might impair the effectiveness of exercise on bone health; however, the underlying mechanism and clinical implications remain elusive. Herein, we showed that deletion of Sirt3 in osteocytes could impair the formation of osteocyte dendritic processes and inhibit bone gain in response to exercise in vivo. Mechanistic studies revealed that Sirt3 regulates E11/gp38 through the protein kinase A (PKA)/cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) signaling pathway. Additionally, the Sirt3 activator honokiol enhanced the sensitivity of osteocytes to fluid shear stress in vitro, and intraperitoneal injection of honokiol reduced bone loss in aged mice in a dose-dependent manner. Collectively, Sirt3 in osteocytes regulates bone mass and mechanical responses through the regulation of E11/gp38. Therefore, targeting Sirt3 could be a novel therapeutic strategy to prevent age-related bone loss and augment the benefits of exercise on the senescent skeleton.
