Popis | Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a genetically heterogenous disorder most often due to heterozygosity for mutations in the type I procollagen genes, COL1A1 or COL1A2. The disorder is characterized by bone fragility leading to increased fracture incidence and long-bone deformities. Although multiple mechanisms underlie OI, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress as a cellular response to defective collagen trafficking is emerging as a contributor to OI pathogenesis. Herein, we used 4-phenylbutiric acid (4-PBA), an established chemical chaperone, to determine if treatment of Aga2(+/-) mice, a model for moderately severe OI due to a Col1a1 structural mutation, could attenuate the phenotype. In vitro, Aga2(+/-) osteoblasts show increased protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) activation protein levels, which improved upon treatment with 4-PBA. The in vivo data demonstrate that a postweaning 5-week 4-PBA treatment increased total body length and weight, decreased fracture incidence, increased femoral bone volume fraction (BV/TV), and increased cortical thickness. These findings were associated with in vivo evidence of decreased bone-derived protein levels of the ER stress markers binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP), CCAAT/-enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP), and activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) as well as increased levels of the autophagosome marker light chain 3A/B (LC3A/B). Genetic ablation of CHOP in Aga2(+/-) mice resulted in increased severity of the Aga2(+/-) phenotype, suggesting that the reduction in CHOP observed in vitro after treatment is a consequence rather than a cause of reduced ER stress. These findings suggest the potential use of chemical chaperones as an adjunct treatment for forms of OI associated with ER stress. (c) 2022 The Authors.
