- Abstract: BACKGROUND:SOX5 is an important transcription factor of the SRY-related HMG-box(SOX)family,which plays a key role in regulating the expression of genes related to bone development and remodeling,especially during osteoblast differentiation and chondrocyte maturation,through its unique HMG box DNA structural domains in concert with SOX6 and SOX9.In addition,the expression and activity of SOX5 and its family are regulated by a variety of diseases and different forms of exercise,among other factors,suggesting that SOX5 and its family have the potential to be effective as drugs and therapeutics to ameliorate related diseases in the future.OBJECTIVE:To provide new perspectives for future research on SOX5 and to provide scientific basis for the application of exercise intervention and drug therapy in the prevention and treatment of bone diseases.METHODS:CNKI and PubMed databases were searched for relevant literature published from 2001 to June 2024,and the search terms were"SRY-related HMG-box5,SOX5,Bone"in Chinese and English,respectively.After screening,analysis and summarization,105 articles were included in the final review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Role of SOX5 in bone development:SOX5 is an important member of the SOX family,which plays a central role in the regulation of skeletal development,bone metabolism and cartilage formation.In synergy with SOX6 and SOX9,SOX5 activates gene expression in osteoblasts and chondrocytes by binding to specific DNA sequences to regulate bone formation and bone remodeling.(2)Abnormal expression of SOX5 is closely related to bone and joint diseases such as chondrodysplasia,osteoporosis and osteoarthritis,suggesting that it may be a key regulator of these diseases.Currently,a variety of drugs may be used to treat bone metabolism-related diseases by regulating SOX5 and its family,and upregulation of SOX5 in mesenchymal stem cells may be effective in improving the symptoms of bone metabolism disease patients in bone tissue engineering.(3)Exercise may effectively prevent osteoporosis and related bone diseases by enhancing bone metabolism and promoting osteoblast differentiation and bone density increase.This mechanism of action may be related to the specific regulatory mechanism of SOX5,especially in different types,intensities and durations of exercise need to be further explored and studied.In conclusion,SOX5 has an important regulatory role in bone development,chondrogenesis,and prevention of bone diseases,and its activity is regulated by a variety of factors,while exercise intervention provides a new scientific basis for the treatment of bone diseases.
