Maresin1 (MaR1) is an endogenous pro-resolving lipid mediator produced from polyunsaturated fatty acids and is believed to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The objective of this study was to estimate MaR1′s impact on type 2 diabetic osteoporosis (T2DOP) and its pharmacological mode of action. An in vitro high-glucose model of the osteoblast cell line MC3T3-E1 was constructed and stimulated with MaR1. Type 2 diabetic rats were used to establish in vivo models of calvarial defects and were treated in situ with MaR1. The results revealed that, aside from preventing mortality and promoting the osteogenic capacity of MC3T3-E1 cells, MaR1 increased nuclear factor erythroid-2 related factor 2 (NRF2) signaling as well as the activity of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and cystine-glutamate antiporter (SLC7A11) and caused the restraint of ferroptosis under hyperglycemic stimulation. However, the therapeutic impact of MaR1 was significantly diminished due to NRF2-siRNA interference and the ferroptosis activator Erastin. Meanwhile, these results were validated through in vivo experiments. These findings imply that MaR1 activated the NRF2 pathway in vivo and in vitro to alleviate high-glucose-induced ferroptosis greatly. More crucially, MaR1 might effectively reduce the risk of T2DOP.
