Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medicine, and in particular to a composition and its application. Background Art

[0002] Osteoporosis is a bone disease that causes a decrease in bone mass and an increased risk of fractures. It is well known that osteoporosis can be caused by various endocrine, metabolic, and mechanical factors, but there is also a view that inflammation can be a causative factor for osteoporosis. Epidemiological studies have found that people with inflammatory diseases (such as ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus) have a higher incidence of osteoporosis compared with other populations. Clinically, the two have also been found to be associated, with osteoporosis and inflammation being comparable in degree. If the inflammation is systemic, bone loss occurs in all skeletal sites, while if the inflammation is limited to a certain site, bone loss only occurs locally at the site of inflammation. Elderly patients are more susceptible to osteoporosis due to the increased production of proinflammatory cytokines with aging.

[0003] DNJ is a glucose analog with an imine group, which has multiple pharmacological effects, including hypoglycemic, anti-tumor, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory activities. Studies have shown that DNJ, as a new anti-inflammatory molecule, plays a protective role in various diseases and can protect the liver by downregulating the expression of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α.

[0004] Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a key intermediate of NAD, has gradually attracted attention in related fields. NAD is an important coenzyme involved in multiple energy metabolism pathways such as glycolysis, β-oxidation, and oxidative phosphorylation. It is a necessary cofactor for post-translational modification of multiple enzymes, such as ribosylation and deacetylation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. It regulates energy metabolism, DNA damage repair, gene expression, and stress response through these enzymes. A large number of studies have shown that NAD levels decrease with age and are closely related to the development of various metabolic disorders, including diseases such as osteoporosis. Many studies have shown that the administration of NAD precursors, such as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), can effectively increase NAD levels in various tissues and prevent such metabolic diseases. As a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of NAD, NMN can reverse mitochondrial homeostasis, redox state, cell survival, and defects in DNA repair. Studies have shown that NMN administration can not only inhibit LPS-induced cellular proinflammatory responses, but also inhibit proinflammatory responses in vivo.

[0005] DNJ and NMN each play an important role in promoting osteoblast differentiation and improving osteoporosis. At present, there are no reports on the effects of DNJ and NMN combined on osteoblasts, so further research and discussion on the specific relationship between them is of great significance. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a composition and its application. The present invention proposes a new use of DNJ combined with NMN to promote osteoblast differentiation, preliminarily proves the promoting effect and potential mechanism of DNJ and NMN combined with nutritional intervention on osteoblast differentiation, and is expected to provide an important scientific basis for the development of anti-inflammatory factors and anti-bone disease functional drugs.

[0017] In some embodiments of the present invention, the above-mentioned product includes: one or more of food, health food and pharmaceutical preparation.

[0018] The present invention provides a composition comprising: 1-deoxynojirimycin and nicotinamide mononucleotide.

[0019] The present invention uses a certain concentration of 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) combined reagents to perform nutritional intervention on osteoblasts that induce inflammation after hydrogen peroxide stimulation. The results show that the differentiation degree, markers and other indicators of osteoblasts after nutritional intervention have obvious improvement effects compared with the aging group, DNJ group and NMN group and the DNJ and NMN combination group, and may promote osteoblast differentiation by inhibiting the phosphorylation of S6K1 downstream of mTOR, thereby causing the upregulation of osteoblast markers OCN, OSX, ALP, and RUNX2.

[0129] Effect example

[0130] 1. Figure 2 Alizarin red staining was used to observe the formation of osteoblast mineralized nodules in each group. The results showed that compared with the control group (NC group), the mineralized nodules in the aging group (H2O2 group) were significantly reduced, and the calcium salt crystals were reduced, indicating that the experimental model was successful. After the combination of 1-deoxynojirimi and nicotinamide mononucleotide (H2O2+DNJ+NMN group), the mineralized nodules were significantly higher than those in the 1-deoxynojirimi group (H2O2+DNJ group) and the nicotinamide mononucleotide group (H2O2+NMN group), indicating that the combined intervention promoted the differentiation of inflammatory osteoblasts and could restore the differentiation function inhibited by H2O2.

[0131] 2. Osteoblasts undergo four stages during bone formation: osteoblast proliferation, extracellular matrix maturation, extracellular matrix mineralization, and osteoblast apoptosis. Osteocalcin (OCN) appears at the end of osteoblast differentiation and can react with Ca 2+Binds to regulate calcium homeostasis and bone mineralization. Osterix (OSX) is an essential transcription factor in osteoblast differentiation and bone formation, and is highly specific to osteoblasts. ALP is the most commonly used marker for early osteoblast differentiation, and it is also an important enzyme that catalyzes and upregulates the expression of the osteoblast differentiation gene OPN. Runx2 belongs to the Runx family of transcription factors and is one of the most critical transcription factors for osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. It can effectively initiate the expression of major bone matrix protein genes. Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 The results in Tables 4 to 7 show that compared with the control group (NC group), the gene expressions of osteoblast differentiation-related transcription factors OCN, OSX, ALP, and Runx2 in the inflammation group (H2O2 group) were significantly reduced. After the combination of 1-deoxynojirimi and nicotinamide mononucleotide (H2O2+DNJ+NMN group), the osteoblast markers were significantly higher than those in the 1-deoxynojirimi group (H2O2+DNJ group) and the nicotinamide mononucleotide group (H2O2+NMN group), indicating that the combined intervention significantly promoted osteoblast differentiation.

[0144] 3. IL-6 (interleukin-6) is a multifunctional cytokine, a type of cytokine. It is involved in a variety of physiological processes such as immune response, acute phase response and hematopoiesis. In inflammatory response, increased levels of IL-6 can be used as an indicator of the presence of inflammation. Figure 7The results in Table 8 show that the gene expression of IL-6 in the inflammation group (H2O2 group) was significantly increased compared with the control group (NC group). The expression level of IL-6 in the group treated with 1-deoxynojirimi and nicotinamide mononucleotide (H2O2+DNJ+NMN group) was significantly lower than that in the 1-deoxynojirimi group (H2O2+DNJ group) and the nicotinamide mononucleotide group (H2O2+NMN group), indicating that the combined intervention significantly reduced the occurrence of inflammatory response, thereby promoting osteoblast differentiation.

[0146]

[0147] Table 8 corresponds to Figure 7 data.

[0148] 4. Figure 8 The results showed that the expression level of osteoblast marker OSX protein in the group treated with 1-deoxynojirimi and nicotinamide mononucleotide (H2O2+DNJ+NMN group) was significantly higher than that in the 1-deoxynojirimi group (H2O2+DNJ group) and the nicotinamide mononucleotide group (H2O2+NMN group), indicating that the combined intervention significantly promoted osteoblast differentiation.

[0149] 5. Fig. 9 The results showed that compared with the control group (NC group), the protein expression level of S6K1 phosphorylation downstream of mTOR in the aging group (H2O2 group) was significantly increased, and after administration of 1-deoxynojirima and nicotinamide mononucleotide combined group (H2O2+DNJ+NMN group), it was significantly lower than that in the 1-deoxynojirima group (H2O2+DNJ group) and the nicotinamide mononucleotide group (H2O2+NMN group), indicating that the combined intervention inhibited the activation of the mTOR signaling pathway in osteoblasts.

[0150] The above experiments verified that the combination of DNJ and NMN can promote osteoblast differentiation by inhibiting the upregulation of osteoblast markers caused by S6K1 phosphorylation downstream of mTOR.

[0151] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention.
