Abstract in brief

  • Kynurenine (KYN) accumulates with age in bone marrow stromal cells and impairs bone formation by reducing levels of CXCL12 signaling and the epigenetic enzyme Hdac3, leading to decreased osteogenesis.
  • KYN promotes the expression of the anti-osteogenic microRNA miR29b15p, which further suppresses CXCL12, Hdac3, and NCoR1, resulting in diminished bone marrow stem cell differentiation into bone-forming cells.
  • The effects of KYN involve activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), as their inhibition partially reverses KYN-induced suppression of CXCL12, and modulation of miR29b15p levels influences AhR expression, linking KYN, AhR signaling, and microRNA regulation in bone aging.
