    Figure 7. WNT5B inhibits E2-induced ALPL expression via SIN3A (A and B) mOBs (A) or U2OS-ERa cells (B) were treated with EtOH or 10 nM E2 in the presence or absence of 50 ng/mL rWNT5B for 4 days. Then, alkaline phos- phatase (ALP) activity was detected and was normalized with total protein. (C) Expression of ALPL also was measured in U2OS-ERa cells. (D) Diagram represents ALPL enhancers in U2OS-ERa cells. U2OS-ERa cells were treated with PBS/EtOH (Ctrl), 10 nM E2, 50 ng/mL rWNT5B, or E2 with rWNT5B for 45 min. (E and F) ChIP was performed using an antibody to (E) ERa or (F) SIN3A. qPCR was performed with primers to the ALPL enhancers and normalized to the b-actin (ACTB) promoter. (G) Co-immunoprecipitations were per- formed with an antibody to SIN3A before blotting with an antibody to ERa or IgG in U2OS-ERa cells. (H) mOBs were treated with 50 ng/mL rWNT5B for 0 and 15 min, and then were incubated with or without calf in- testinal protease (CIP) in vitro before detect- ing phospho-CDK5 (Tyr15) and SIN3A by immunoblotting and normalized to b-actin (BA) by ImageJ. Three different bio- logical replicates were tested and a repre- sentative image from one replicate is pre- sented. n ¼ 3, Student’s t test: **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05.

    Figure 8. Model of the regulation of WNT5B expression at SNP rs2887571 and the signaling pathway of WNT5B in osteoblasts (A) The molecular mechanisms of ERa and NFATc1 at SNP rs2887571 in cells with homozygous AA (right) or homozygous GG (left) at rs2887571. (Top) Homozygous GG has increased ERa, NFATc1 and SIN3A compared to homozygous AA, which re- sults in lower endogenous WNT5B expression due to the repres- sive effects of SIN3A. (Bottom) The presence of E2 recruits SIN3A to suppress the expression of WNT5B in both genotypes, with increased suppression in cells with GG due to increased recruit- ment of SIN3A. (B) WNT5B binds with ROR1/2 then activates DVL2/3, RAC1/ CDC42, p-JNK, and p-c-Fos. Phosphorylation of SIN3A by CDK5 results in proteasome degradation. WNT5B inhibits phosphoryla- tion of CDK5 (Tyr15), resulting in accumulation of SIN3A. WNT5B also inhibits b-catenin activity in osteoblasts. Solid lines indicate the signaling pathways described in this study. The dashed line in- dicates the signaling that has been previously reported. P indicates phosphorylation.
