- Abstract
- Metabolic mediators play an important role in regulating chronic inflammation in the body. Here we report an unexpected role for GDF15 (Growth Differentiation Factor 15), a central mediator of food intake, in inflammation-associated bone loss. GDF15 serum levels were found to be elevated in arthritis patients and inversely correlated with bone density. Despite being associated with inflammation, we found that GDF15 itself does not cause, nor contribute to, clinical or histopathological arthritis. Rather, under inflammatory conditions, GDF15 mediates trabecular bone loss through its receptor GFRAL, which is exclusively expressed in the hindbrain. GDF15-GFRAL binding results in β-adrenergic activation of MALPs (Marrow Adipocytic Lineage Precursors) in the bone marrow, which stimulate osteoclasts and trigger bone loss. These data suggest a metabolic mediator-controlled brain-bone axis in inflammation, through which bone loss is induced in a contextual rather than general manner. These findings may lead to more specific therapeutic interventions to protect bone.
