Bone fracture is accompanied by mechanical stresses and inflammation – conditions that impair mitochondria via the phenomenon of permeability transition. This phenomenon occurs due to opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) promoted by cyclophilin D (CypD). MPTP opening exacerbates inflammation and cell death and, thus can disrupt fracture repair. Here we tested a hypothesis that protecting mitochondria from MPTP opening via inhibition of CypD improves fracture repair. Our data indicate that osteoblast activity, bone formation, and biomechanical properties of repaired bones were significantly increased in CypD knock-out mice when compared to controls during fracture repair. These effects were observed in male but not female mice, thus showing sexual dimorphism. Pharmacological inhibition of CypD with NIM811 in male mice also stimulated fracture repair. In addition, CypD knock-out or pharmacological inhibition produced pro-osteogenic effect in isolated bone marrow osteoprogenitors. This in vitro effect was associated with higher mitochondrial respiration and increased β-catenin activity regulated by mitochondria-dependent acetylation. Our findings implicate a sex-specific role of MPTP in bone fracture and suggest CypD inhibition as a modality to promote fracture repair. |
