Heat map display of cell viabilities of A549 (Left) and H1299 (Right) cells after incubation with different concentrations of anti-ED compounds (Paroxetine (10–200 μg/mL), et al.) for 48 h. The results showed that paroxetine did not significantly promote tumor cell proliferation; instead, it exerted a mild inhibitory effect on cell growth at higher concentrations.

Assessment of protein expression levels of NFATc1, c-fos, Cathepsin K and MMP9 after administration with Paroxetine (0.0625-2.5 μM; pretreatment 2 h before stimulation+ 3 d after stimulation) by Western blot. The results demonstrated that, following RANKL stimulation, the protein expression levels of NFATc1, c-fos, CTSK, and MMP9 significantly increased. However, Paroxetine reduced the expression levels of these proteins in osteoclasts in a concentration-dependent manner.

Representative fluorescence images of P65 nuclear translocation following RANKL stimulation without or with Paroxetine (PA) (pretreatment 6 h). The results showed that RANKL stimulation led to a significant increase in the mean nuclear fluorescence intensity of p65, whereas Paroxetine treatment attenuated this effect.

Histopathology photographs of femoral samples after HE-stained sections. The results revealed that the trabecular bone in the distal femoral region of mice in the LPS group became sparse and thin. In contrast, Paroxetine (PA, 20 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily for 10 days) effectively alleviated bone loss, as evidenced by the intact and well-ordered arrangement of trabeculae in mice of this group.

Representative TRAP staining images of RANKL-induced osteoclasts treated with Paroxetine (2.5 μM) on specified days. The results showed that the addition of Paroxetine during the early stage of differentiation (days 1-3) significantly inhibited osteoclast formation. In contrast, when bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) were exposed to Paroxetine from days 3-5 or days 5-7, the number of osteoclasts was also reduced, but the inhibitory effect was less pronounced compared to the early-stage (days 1–3) exposure.
