However, the effects of disrupted circadian rhythms on bone remodeling remain largely unknown. Here, we show that one of the core circadian regulators PER1 inhibits osteoclastogenesis by upregulating genes involved in inflammation. Conditional knockout (KO) of Per1 in osteoclasts and related cells resulted in decreased bone mass in the femurs of mice, along with increased osteoclasts and decreased osteoblasts. Osteoclastogenesis was also promoted by Per1 depletion in vitro with 16 downregulated inflammatory genes. Seven of these genes were known to promote or inhibit osteoclastogenesis depending on the stage of osteoclastogenesis and the presence or absence of infection. Knockdown of Nlrp3, Tlr8, or Tlr9 in the group of genes promoted osteoclastogenesis, mirroring the effects of Per1 KO and offering a mechanistic explanation for the Per1-mediated inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. These results were not observed following the KO of a paralog Per2. Per1 KO mice maintain general circadian rhythms, unlike arrhythmic Per1;Per2 double KO mice. This gives credence to Per1 as a selective target for therapeutic interventions without disrupting the circadian rhythms. This study uncovered a molecular link between a circadian regulator and osteoclastogenesis in the broader context of inflammatory reactions. Our findings may be mechanistically relevant to inflammatory bone diseases influenced by circadian rhythms, such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, as well as other bone diseases predisposed by chronic circadian disruption.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jbmr\/zjag025","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,4]],"date-time":"2026-02-04T12:47:51Z","timestamp":1770209271000},"page":"1136-1148","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Circadian
