Severe osteoporosis is often treated with one of three Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved osteoanabolics. These drugs act by (1) parathyroid hormone (PTH) receptor stimulation using analogues to PTH (teriparatide) or PTH-related peptide (abaloparatide) or by (2) monoclonal antibody neutralization of sclerostin, an innate Wnt inhibitor (Scl-mAb, romosozumab-aqqg). The efficacies of both strategies wane over time. The transcription factor Nmp4 (Nuclear Matrix Protein 4) is expressed in all tissues yet mice lacking this gene are healthy and exhibit enhanced PTH-induced bone formation. Conditional deletion of Nmp4 in mesenchymal stem progenitor cells (MSPCs) phenocopies the elevated response to PTH in global Nmp4^−/− mice. However, targeted deletion in later osteoblast stages does not replicate this response. In this study we queried whether loss of Nmp4 improves Scl-mAb potency. Experimental cohorts included global Nmp4^−/− and Nmp4^+/+ littermates and three conditional knockout models. Nmp4-floxed (Nmp4^fl/fl) mice were crossed with mice harboring one of three Cre-drivers (i) Prx1Cre+ targeting MSPCs, (ii) BglapCre+ (mature osteocalcin-expressing osteoblasts), and (iii) Dmp1Cre+ (osteocytes). Female mice were treated with Scl-mAb or 0.9 % saline vehicle for 4 or 7 weeks from 10 weeks of age. Skeletal response was assessed using micro-computed tomography, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, bone histomorphometry, and serum analysis. Global Nmp4^−/− mice exhibited enhanced Scl-mAb-induced increases in trabecular bone in the femur and spine and a heightened increase in whole body areal bone mineral density compared to global Nmp4^+/+ controls. This improved Scl-mAb potency was primarily driven by enhanced increases in bone formation. Nmp4^fl/fl;​PrxCre+ mice showed an exaggerated Scl-mAb-induced increase in femoral bone but not in the spine since Prrx1 is not expressed in vertebra. The Nmp4^fl/fl;​BglapCre+ and Nmp4^fl/fl;​Dmp1Cre+ mice did not exhibit an improved Scl-mAb response. We conclude that Nmp4 expression in MSPCs interferes with the bone anabolic response to anti-sclerostin therapy.
