To systematically understand the functions of SCIMP gene for osteoporosis, both in vitro and in vivo experiments were analyzed in depth in this integrated study.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The significantly differentially expressed genes of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) patients from GEO database were selected. Meanwhile, the primary target gene was also confirmed in clinically recruited individuals using ELISA method; 50 postmenopausal osteoporosis patients with a T\u2010score of \u20102.5 were randomly enrolled; postmenopausal women with a T\u2010score\u2009&gt;\u2009\u22122.5 were included in the non\u2010osteoporotic group (including osteopenia and normal bone mineral density). The associated processes and signaling pathways were deeply investigated with GO and KEGG enrichment analysis. The downstream signaling factors including Erk\u20101\/2, Akt, and IkB\u2010related signaling pathways for the potential gene were evaluated using MG\u201063 cell line; the MTT, CCK\u20108, and flow cytometry assays were performed to exam MG\u201063 cell viability, proliferation, as well as apoptosis, respectively, under different treatments.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Based on the differentially expressed gene analysis for GEO database, PMOP patients displayed 845 differentially expressed genes, including 709 down\u2010regulated and 136 up\u2010regulated ones. Ten genes including SCIMP were significantly differentially expressed (at least three\u2010fold difference). SCIMP was the most markedly decreased in PMOP patients\u2019 specimens. Using clinical recruited individuals, the concentration of SCIMP was 96.6\u2009\u00b1\u200920.8 ng\/\u03bcL in the PMOP group compared with 168.8\u2009\u00b1\u200923.5 ng\/\u03bcL in the control group (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). At the same time, the osteoclast differentiation signaling pathway was significantly up\u2010regulated while hedgehogs as well as other signaling pathways were down\u2010regulated based on the KEGG analysis. The phosphorylation level of Akt was markedly blocked in si\u2010SCIMP treatment. Up\u2010regulation of SCIMP increased cell proliferation, inhibited cell apoptosis, and enhanced cell viability in MG\u201063 cells, which was markedly rescued by AKT phosphorylation inhibitor. Finally, in vivo experiments also confirmed that the upregulation of SCIMP enhanced the structural parameters of rat trabecular bone and the osteogenic activity of bone tissue.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>SCIMP plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of postmenopausal osteoporosis in women. SCIMP influences osteoclasts function through an akt\u2010dependent molecular pathway, and subsequently influences the equilibrium process of bone metabolism. This provides a new insight into the pathogenesis of postmenopausal osteoporosis as well as the clinical treatment of osteoporosis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/os.13715","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,14]],"date-time":"2023-04-14T09:01:15Z","timestamp":1681462875000},"page":"1375-1383","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["<scp>SCIMP<\/scp>:
