Uranium is widely spread in the environment due to its natural and anthropogenic occurrences, hence the importance of understanding its impact on human health. The skeleton is the main site of long-term accumulation of this actinide. However, interactions of this metal with biological processes involving the mineralized extracellular matrix and bone cells are still poorly understood. To get a better insight into these interactions, we developed new biomimetic bone matrices containing low doses of natural uranium (up to 0.85 µg of uranium per cm2). These models were characterized by spectroscopic and microscopic approaches before being used as a support for the culture and differentiation of pre-osteoclastic cells. In doing so, we demonstrate that uranium can exert opposite effects on osteoclast resorption depending on its concentration in the bone microenvironment. Our results also provide evidence for the first time that resorption contributes to the remobilization of bone matrix-bound uranium. In agreement with this, we identified, by HRTEM, uranium phosphate internalized in vesicles of resorbing osteoclasts. Thanks to the biomimetic matrices we developed, this study highlights the complex mutual effects between osteoclasts and uranium. This demonstrates the relevance of these 3D models to further study the cellular mechanisms at play in response to uranium storage in bone tissue, and thus better understand the impact of environmental exposure to uranium on human bone health.
