Description
Abstract
Background. Osteoporosis is a common disease in postmenopausal women characterized by systemic bone mass loss, microstructure fragility and increased incidence of fractures. Resistant dextrin (RD) is a soluble fiber with beneficial metabolic effects. However, the beneficial effect of RD in osteoporosis remains to be determined. Methods. In this study, we investigated the effect of dietary RD supplement on osteoporosis in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. Both the control (sham) and OVX group rats were gavaged with RD (10 g/kg/d) or equal amount of saline for 12 weeks, and histological and biomechanical analyses were conducted to evaluate bone microstructure and strength. Furthermore, we also evaluated the effects of RD on osteoclastogenesis in bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) by detecting the expression of osteoclast-related genes using qRT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Results. The results showed that in OVX rats the bone strength and microstructure characteristics were significantly improved with RD supplement for 12 weeks. Additionally, the mRNA and protein expression of osteoclast markers, such as CTSK, NF-κB and NFATC1, were significantly down-regulated in BMMs isolated from RD supplement group. RD also suppressed RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis in BMMs. Conclusion. These findings suggest that RD ameliorates osteoporosis in OVX rats by inhibiting osteoclast differentiation. RD suppresses RANKLinduced osteoclastogenesis possibly through modulating Akt and NF-κB signaling pathways. These data indicate that a dietary supplement of RD might serve as an intervention strategy for menopausal osteoporosis
