Abstract

We show that sulforaphane inhibits osteoclastogenesis in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor for activation of nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ ligand (RANKL) in osteoclast (OC) precursors. Sulforaphane, an aliphatic isothiocyanate, is a known cancer chemo-preventative agent with anti-oxidative properties. Nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ (NF-${\kappa}B$) is a critical transcription factor in RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis, and electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) and assay of NF-${\kappa}B$-mediated secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) revealed that sulforaphane selectively inhibited NF-${\kappa}B$ activation induced by RANKL. Inhibition may involve interaction of sulforaphane with thiol groups, since it was prevented by reducing agents.
