Evaluation of PTX3 in bone head biopsies and osteoblast cell cultures. Immunohistochemical results were evaluated by a semiquantitative approach assigning a score from 0 to 3 according to the number of positive osteoblasts (Table 2). (a) Graph shows immunohistochemical results of PTX3 (OP versus OA P=0.0140; OP versus CTRL p<0.0001; OA versus CTRL p<0.0001). (OP n=25, OA n=25, CTRL n=15) (b and c) Graphs displays the correlation between PTX3 score and BV/TV or Tb.Th values for each OP patient. OP patients are numbered in increasing order of BV/TV or Tb.Th values, respectively. (f and g) OA patients showed high expression of PTX3 both in osteoblasts and bone marrow cells. (h and i) CTRL patients showed expression of PTX3 in almost all osteoblasts and bone marrow cells (g, square). Scale bar represents 200 μm for DFH images and 40 μm for EGI images. (j) Graph shows the results of immunostaining of primary confluent osteoblast cultures (OP n=3, OA n=3, CTRL n=3) (k) Graph shows the presence of micro-HA crystals in primary confluent osteoblast cultures (OP n=3, OA n=3, CTRL n=3). (l and m) Dual-colour immunostaining for PTX3 (red) and RUNX2 (green) on confluent osteoblasts culture derived from CTRL patients. (l) Images show numerous RUNX2-positive osteoblast expressing PTX3. Scale bar represents 50 μm. (m) High magnification image of RUNX2-positive osteoblast expressing PTX3. Scale bar represents 10 μm. (n) Representative images of western blot assay. Western blot analysis displayed remarkable difference in PTX3 expression among the groups. Table reported the ratio between the densitometric values of PTX3 and β-catenin for each experimental group. (OP n=3, OA n=3, CTRL n=3). (o) mRNA expression level of PTX3 relative to GADPH expression in osteoblast primary cultures derived from OP (0.39±0.22), OA (0.72±0.19) and CTRL (1.00±0.11) patients. (OP n=3, OA n=3, CTRL n=3)

Biological function summary
The role of PTX3 extends beyond simple pathogen recognition. It is involved in the regulation of inflammation and tissue homeostasis. As part of the pentraxin superfamily PTX3 plays a role in the formation of complexes with other molecules such as complement components. These interactions modulate the complement cascade an essential part of the innate immune response and influence the resolution of inflammation. PTX3 also interacts with extracellular matrix components stabilizing tissue structure during immune response.
Pathways
PTX3 integrates into vital immune signaling networks. It actively participates in the complement pathway where it regulates the activity of C1q and C3 key complement proteins. Additionally PTX3 connects with the Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathway. This interaction helps modulate the body's response to microbial infections by influencing the activity of TLR4 among other related proteins which are fundamental in recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns.
