Bone homeostasis is known as a dynamic balance, including bone formation through osteoblasts and bone resorption by osteoclasts. MicroRNAs (miRs) play a critical role in regulating bone formation and homeostasis. In the study, the effects of miR-451a on bone homeostasis were investigated. The results indicated that the primary osteoblasts and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), as the main source of osteoblasts, isolated from miR-451a-knockout (KO) mice showed promoted osteogenesis. in vivo, an ovariectomized (OVX) animal model was used to further explore the effect of miR-451a on osteoporosis. Micro-computed tomography (mu CT) indicated a promoted bone volume in miR-451a-KO mice compared to wild-type (WT) mice after OVX operation, demonstrating a redundant bone formation after the knockout of miR-451a. Importantly, we for the first time found that bone morphogenetic protein 6 (Bmp6) was a direct target of miR-451a, elevating bone formation through regulating SMAD1/5/8 expression. In conclusion, reducing miR-451a expression levels could enhance bone formation during the progression of osteoporosis, which might be at least partly via the meditation of Bmp6 expression.
