The invention encompasses compositions and methods for effectively treating and/or preventing the development and/or progression of osteoporosis and related disorders such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, and for promoting overall bone and joint health. This is accomplished by addressing multiple key mechanisms that lead to such disorders. The invention includes compositions comprising a combination of agents having biological activities that effectively suppress, regulate or interfere with the various key biochemical processes and mechanisms that increase the risk for development and/or progression of osteoporosis. The present compositions and methods simultaneously promote bone formation and reduce bone resorption by (a) stimulating osteoblast formation and osteogenesis; (b) suppressing adipocyte differentiation; (c) inhibiting osteoclast formation; and (d) increasing apoptosis of osteoclasts. The inventive compositions used for administration to human and other mammalian subjects having or at risk for development of osteoporosis comprise (1) at least one agent capable of modulating expression and/or activity of one or more of peroxisome activated protein receptor gamma (PPAR-γ), CAAT/enhancer binding protein-α (C/EBPα) and Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein (SREBP-1); (2) at least one agent that activates expression and/or activity of one or more of the osteogenic transcription factors (Runx2/Cbfα1, Dlx5, Osterix, Msx2); (3) at least one agent that activates expression and/or activity of one or more of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs: BMP 2 and 4), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and osteocalcin; (4) at least one agent capable of activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway; (5) at least one agent that inhibits the activity of pro-oxidants including reactive nitrogen species and reactive oxygen species (ROS); (6) at least one agent that suppresses one or more of inflammatory mediators including interleukins IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, NF-κB, TNF-α, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2); and (7) at least one agent that induces the expression of and/or activates one or more of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), sirtuin (SIRT1) and adiponectin (AP).
本发明包括用于有效治疗和/或预防骨质疏松症及骨关节炎和类风湿性关节炎等相关疾病的发展和/或恶化,以及促进整体骨骼和关节健康的组合物和方法。这是通过解决导致此类疾病的多种关键机制来实现的。本发明包括由多种制剂组合而成的组合物,这些制剂具有生物活性,可有效抑制、调节或干扰增加骨质疏松症发生和/或发展风险的各种关键生化过程和机制。本发明的组合物和方法通过(a)刺激成骨细胞形成和成骨;(b)抑制脂肪细胞分化;(c)抑制破骨细胞形成;(d)增加破骨细胞的凋亡,同时促进骨形成和减少骨吸收。本发明组合物用于对具有骨质疏松症或有骨质疏松症发病风险的人类和其他哺乳动物施用,包括 (1) 至少一种能够调节过氧化物酶体激活蛋白受体γ(PPAR-γ)、CAAT/增强子结合蛋白-α(C/EBPα)和甾醇调节元件结合蛋白(SREBP-1)中的一种或多种表达和/或活性的制剂;(2) 至少一种能激活一种或多种成骨转录因子(Runx2/Cbfα1、Dlx5、Osterix、Msx2)表达和/或活性的制剂; (3) 至少一种能激活一种或多种骨形态发生蛋白(BMPs:(4) 至少一种能激活 Wnt/β-catenin 信号通路的制剂;(5) 至少一种能抑制促氧化剂(包括活性氮和活性氧)活性的制剂;(6) 至少一种抑制一种或多种炎症介质的制剂,包括白细胞介素 IL-1α、IL-1β、IL-6、NF-κB、TNF-α、基质金属蛋白酶(MMPs)和前列腺素 E2(PGE2);(7) 至少一种能诱导和/或激活单磷酸腺苷激活蛋白激酶(AMPK)、sirtuin(SIRT1)和脂联素(AP)中的一种或多种的表达的制剂。
