Wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis (PPO) have become a major reason of joint arthroplasty failure and secondary surgery following thus pose severe threat to global public health. Therefore, determining how effectively suppress PPO has an urgent problem. The pathological mechanism involved in the signaling cascade is still unclear. Recently, interaction between osteogenic inhibition wear particles at implant biological interface, which received increasing attention, been revealed as important factor process. Additionally, Hedgehog (Hh)-Gli1 crucial was regulated by multiple factors numerous physiological It exert part during embryonic bone development metabolism. However, whether Hh-Gli1 remains unknown. Our present study explored regulates titanium (Ti) nanoparticle-induced osteolysis. We found that dramatically downregulated upon Ti particle treatment. Mechanistically, glycogen synthesis kinase 3β (GSK-3β) activation significantly increased via changes GSK-3β phosphorylation level participate posttranslational modification degradation key transcription Gli1, decreasing accumulation Gli1 its translocation from cytoplasm nucleus.

Abstract Osteoblasts and osteoclasts collaborate in bone metabolism, facilitating development, maintaining normal density strength, aiding the repair of pathological damage. Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) can disrupt intracellular equilibrium between osteoclast osteoblast, resulting dysfunctional metabolism. The inositol‐requiring enzyme‐1α (IRE1α) pathway—the most conservative unfolded protein response pathway activated by ERS—is crucial regulating cell This involvement encompasses functions such as inflammation, autophagy, apoptosis.
