ABSTRACT
Camurati-Engelmann disease (CED) is a genetic bone-modeling disorder mainly caused by mutations in the gene that encodes transforming growth factor-ß1 (TGF-ß1). Symptoms of CED include bone pain, fractures, and dysplasia. Currently, effective therapies for bone fracture and dysplasia in CED are urgently needed. We have demonstrated that TGF-ß1 is a coupling factor for bone remodeling and is aberrantly activated in CED. Daily injection of TGF-ß type 1 receptor inhibitor (TßR1I) attenuated CED symptoms, but this systemic administration caused serious side effects. In this study, we created a conjugate linking TßR1I and alendronate, which delivered TßR1I specifically to bone. After weekly injection of the conjugate for 8 weeks, normal bone morphology and remodeling in CED mice was maintained with a minimum effective dose 700 times lower than TßR1I injection. Additionally, we found that the conjugate restored normal bone turnover by reducing the number of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, maintained a regular osteogenic microenvironment by regulating the formation of CD31 and Endomucin double-positive vessels, and preserved ordinary bone formation via inhibition of the migration of leptin-receptor-positive cells. Thus, targeting delivery of TßR1I to bone is a promising therapy for CED and other uncoupled bone remodeling disorders.
