Osteoporosis is a common bone metabolic disease， which is mainly characterized by the decrease in the number of bone trabeculae and the destruction of bone tissue microstructure， leading to increased bone fragility and fracture risks. This disease is common in postmenopausal women， elderly men， diabetes patients， and obese people. Due to the lack of awareness to prevent bone losses and the limitations of bone mass measurement methods， osteoporosis is only concerned when there are serious complications， which imposes a heavy burden on both patients and medical resources. Oxidative stress refers to the excessive production of highly active molecules such as reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen in the body subjected to harmful stimuli， leading to the imbalance between the oxidative and antioxidant systems and causing oxidative damage. Studies have shown that oxidative stress can increase the generation and activity of osteoclasts and inhibit the differentiation of osteoblasts， thus playing a role in the occurrence and development of osteoporosis. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is considered an effective antioxidant that can alleviate oxidative stress-induced osteoporosis by regulating a variety of signaling pathways. Studies have shown that TCM can alleviate oxidative stress and promote bone angiogenesis and osteogenesis by regulating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）， nuclear factor-kappa B， and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor （Nrf2） signaling pathways. TCM alleviates oxidative stress and promotes osteogenesis by regulating the Nrf2， PI3K/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin， and secreted glycoprotein Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways. In addition， TCM regulates NF-κB， mitogen-activated protein kinase， and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B （RANK）/RANK ligand/osteoprotegerin signaling pathway to alleviate excessive bone resorption induced by oxidative stress. This paper systematically summarizes the literature on the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis by TCM or its active ingredients via the above-mentioned signaling pathways to reduce oxidative stress in recent years. It briefs the possible molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress regulation-related signaling pathways to cause osteoporosis. In addition， this paper discusses the effects and mechanisms of TCM on bone angiogenesis， osteogenesis， and bone resorption by reducing oxidative stress through the regulation of related signaling pathways， aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the research and clinical treatment of osteoporosis.

Modulating Tankyrases (TNKS), interactions with USP25 to promote TNKS degradation, rather than inhibiting their enzymatic activities, is emerging as an alternative/specific approach to inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Here, we identified UAT-B, a novel neoantimycin analog isolated from Streptomyces conglobatus, as a small-molecule inhibitor of TNKS-USP25 protein-protein interaction (PPI) to overcome multi-drug resistance in colorectal cancer (CRC). The disruption of TNKS-USP25 complex formation by UAT-B led to a significant decrease in TNKS levels, triggering cell apoptosis through modulation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Importantly, UAT-B successfully inhibited the CRC cells growth that harbored high TNKS levels, as demonstrated in various in vitro and in vivo studies utilizing cell line-based and patient-derived xenografts, as well as APC^min/+ spontaneous CRC models. Collectively, these findings suggest that targeting the TNKS-USP25 PPI using a small-molecule inhibitor represents a compelling therapeutic strategy for CRC treatment, and UAT-B emerges as a promising candidate for further preclinical and clinical investigations.
