In vitro osteoclast differentiation is supported by stromal cells. In order to isolate a stromal cell line that can support osteoclast differentiation, 22 cell lines were cloned from mouse bone marrow. One of these clones, TMS-14, is a line of preadipocytes that supports osteoclast-like cell formation without any bone resorbing factors; and another, TMS-12, is a line of preosteoblasts that supports osteoclast-like cell formation with bone resorbing factors such as prostaglandin E(2)(PGE(2)). The difference of these two lines for osteoclast formation was not related with their abilities of PGE(2)production, but with the expression of osteoclast differentiation factor (ODF, also called OPGL, RANKL, and TRANCE), which detected with RT-PCR, in both cell lines. In TMS-14 cells, ODF mRNA was detected with or without PGE(2). In TMS-12 cells, ODF expression was detected in the PGE(2)-treated cells alone. When TMS-14 cells were induced to undergo adipogenic differentiation in response to treatment with thiazolidinedione, a ligand and activator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma), the ability of TMS-14 cells to support osteoclast-like cell formation was prevented in the presence or absence of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3). The gene expression of ODF in TMS-14 cells was also inhibited by treatment with thiazolidinedione. These results suggest that adipogenesis in bone marrow cells is related to the ability to support osteoclast differentiation. This is the first report of a cloned stromal cell line that can support osteoclastogenesis without the treatment with any osteotropic factors. Furthermore, this murine clonal preadipose cell line may be useful for studying senescence-dependent osteoporosis.  相似文献

Osteoclasts are tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive multinucleated cells derived from monocyte/macrophage-lineage precursors and are critically responsible for bone resorption. In giant cell tumor of bone (GCT), numerous TRAP-positive multinucleated giant cells emerge and severe osteolytic bone destruction occurs, implying that the emerged giant cells are biologically similar to osteoclasts. To identify novel genes involved in osteoclastogenesis, we searched genes whose expression pattern was significantly different in GCT from normal and other bone tumor tissues. By screening a human gene expression database, we identified sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin 15 (Siglec-15) as one of the genes markedly overexpressed in GCT. The mRNA expression level of Siglec-15 increased in association with osteoclast differentiation in cultures of mouse primary unfractionated bone marrow cells (UBMC), RAW264.7 cells of the mouse macrophage cell line and human osteoclast precursors (OCP). Treatment with polyclonal antibody to mouse Siglec-15 markedly inhibited osteoclast differentiation in primary mouse bone marrow monocyte/macrophage (BMM) cells stimulated with receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) or tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. The antibody also inhibited osteoclast differentiation in cultures of mouse UBMC and RAW264.7 cells stimulated with active vitamin D3 and RANKL, respectively. Finally, treatment with polyclonal antibody to human Siglec-15 inhibited RANKL-induced TRAP-positive multinuclear cell formation in a human OCP culture. These results suggest that Siglec-15 plays an important role in osteoclast differentiation.  相似文献

Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) inhibited osteoclast-like cell formation in co-cultures of mouse bone marrow cells either with the mouse stromal cell line, ST2, or with primary osteoblastic cells. Basic FGF significantly inhibited the osteoclast-like cell formation, induced by 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3[1α, 25(OH)2D3] when the cytokine was added to the culture, at an intermediate stage, suggesting that bFGF inhibits the differentiation of the osteoclast progenitors. With regard to target cells, bFGF directly affected ST2; it increased [3H]thymidine uptake and decreased the number of alkaline phosphatase-positive cells. In contrast, bFGF had no inhibitory effect on the colony formation of bone marrow cells induced by macrophage colony stimulating factor in methylcellulose culture. In addition, ST2 cells treated with bFGF produced similar amounts of colony forming activity to those without the cytokine. These findings indicated that the bFGF is not involved in the proliferation of progenitor cells even in the presence of ST2 cells. Furthermore, bFGF inhibited osteoclast-like cell formation induced not only by 1α,25(OH)2D3, but also by prostaglandin E2 and by interleukin-11. These results suggest that bFGF inhibits the common site of osteoclast-like cell formation, as induced by different mechanisms. Our data also indicated that the target cells for bFGF in inhibiting osteoclast formation are not osteoclast progenitors but stromal cells such as ST2 and osteoblastic cells, which support osteoclast development. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.  相似文献

A novel bone-resorbing factor was cloned using an expression cloning technique, which involved a Xenopus oocyte expression system and an assay for osteoclast formation. A candidate clone was isolated from a BW5147 mouse T-lymphoma cell cDNA library. Sequencing analysis identified the factor as gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT), which is an enzyme involved in glutathione metabolism. The addition of purified GGT protein to mouse bone marrow culture effectively induced formation of osteoclasts. An antibody against GGT inhibited osteoclast formation but not the enzymatic activity. We also demonstrated that an inactive form of GGT, the enzymatic activity of which had been blocked by chemical modification with a specific inhibitor, acivicin, supported osteoclast formation. These results indicate that GGT acts on osteoclast formation independent of its own enzymatic activity. Furthermore, both native GGT and inactive GGT stimulated the expression of the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) mRNA and protein from bone marrow stromal cells. This report is the first demonstration of a novel biological activity of GGT protein in a manner independent of its enzymatic activity.  相似文献

p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) acts downstream in the signaling pathway that includes receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK), a powerful inducer of osteoclast formation and activation. We investigated the role of p38 MAPK in parathyroid hormone related protein (PTHrP)-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro and PTHrP-induced bone resorption in vivo. The ability of FR167653 to inhibit osteoclast formation was evaluated by counting the number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase positive multinucleated cells (TRAP-positive MNCs) in in vitro osteoclastgenesis assays. Its mechanisms were evaluated by detecting the expression level of c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (NFATc1) in bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) stimulated with sRANKL and M-CSF, and by detecting the expression level of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and RANKL in bone marrow stromal cells stimulated with PTHrP in the presence of FR167653. The function of FR167653 on bone resorption was assessed by measuring the bone resorption area radiographically and by counting osteoclast number per unit bone tissue area in calvaria in a mouse model of bone resorption by injecting PTHrP subcutaneously onto calvaria. Whole blood ionized calcium levels were also recorded. FR167653 inhibited PTHrP-induced osteoclast formation and PTHrP-induced c-Fos and NFATc1 expression in bone marrow macrophages, but not the expression levels of RANKL and OPG in primary bone marrow stromal cells treated by PTHrP. Furthermore, bone resorption area and osteoclast number in vivo were significantly decreased by the treatment of FR167653. Systemic hypercalcemia was also partially inhibited. Inhibition of p38 MAPK by FR167653 blocks PTHrP-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro and PTHrP-induced bone resorption in vivo, suggesting that the p38 MAPK signaling pathway plays a fundamental role in PTHrP-induced osteoclastic bone resorption.  相似文献

Osteoclast overactivation‐induced imbalance in bone remodelling leads to pathological bone destruction, which is a characteristic of many osteolytic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, periprosthetic osteolysis and periodontitis. Natural compounds that suppress osteoclast formation and function have therapeutic potential for treating these diseases. Stachydrine (STA) is a bioactive alkaloid isolated from Leonurus heterophyllus Sweet and possesses antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, anticancer and cardioprotective properties. However, its effects on osteoclast formation and function have been rarely described. In the present study, we found that STA suppressed receptor activator of nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) ligand (RANKL)‐induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption, and reduced osteoclast‐related gene expression in vitro. Mechanistically, STA inhibited RANKL‐induced activation of NF‐κB and Akt signalling, thus suppressing nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 induction and nuclear translocation. In addition, STA alleviated bone loss and reduced osteoclast number in a murine model of LPS‐induced inflammatory bone loss. STA also inhibited the activities of NF‐κB and NFATc1 in vivo. Together, these results suggest that STA effectively inhibits osteoclastogenesis both in vitro and in vivo and therefore is a potential option for treating osteoclast‐related diseases.  相似文献

Recombinant human interleukin-10 (hIL-10) inhibited the formation of osteoclast-like multinucleated cells in rat whole bone marrow cultures. The effect of hIL-10 on the process of osteoclast formation was further examined, since the process of osteoclast formation includes the proliferation and the differentiation of osteoclast progenitors into mononuclear preosteoclasts and the fusion of preosteoclasts into multinucleated osteoclasts. In the nonadherent bone marrow cell culture system, which was free of stromal cells and formed preosteoclast-like cells, hIL-10 significantly inhibited the formation of preosteoclast-like cells even at a very low concentration (0.5 U/ml). The strong inhibition appeared even after treatment with hIL-10 for only the first 24 h of the culture. However, hIL-10 did not affect the fusion process of preosteoclast-like cells to form osteoclast-like multinucleated cells in the rat coculture system of preosteoclast-like cells with primary osteo-blasts. Furthermore, hIL-10 completely inhibited the colony formation induced by granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). These findings suggest that the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis by hIL-10 started at the early stage of the differentiation of osteoclast progenitors to preosteoclasts. © 1995 Wiley-Liss Inc.  相似文献

alpha-Lipoic acid (LA) has been intensely investigated as a therapeutic agent for several pathological conditions, including diabetic polyneuropathy. In the present study, we examined the effects of LA on osteoclastic bone loss associated with inflammation. LA significantly inhibited IL-1-induced osteoclast formation in cocultures of mouse osteoblasts and bone marrow cells, but LA had only a marginal effect on osteoclastogenesis from bone marrow macrophages induced by receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL). LA inhibited both the sustained up-regulation of RANKL expression and the production of PGE2 induced by IL-1 in osteoblasts. In addition, treatment with either prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) or RANKL rescued IL-1-induced osteoclast formation inhibited by LA or NS398, a specific cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor, in cocultures. LA blocked IL-1-induced PGE2 production even in the presence of arachidonic acid, without affecting the expression of COX-2 and membrane-bound PGE2 synthase. Dihydrolipoic acid (the reduced form of LA), but not LA, attenuated recombinant COX-2 activity in vitro. LA also inhibited osteoclast formation and bone loss induced by IL-1 and LPS in mice. Our results suggest that the reduced form of LA inhibits COX-2 activity, PGE2 production, and sustained RANKL expression, thereby inhibiting osteoclast formation and bone loss in inflammatory conditions.  相似文献

LPS is a potent stimulator of bone resorption in inflammatory diseases. The mechanism by which LPS induces osteoclastogenesis was studied in cocultures of mouse osteoblasts and bone marrow cells. LPS stimulated osteoclast formation and PGE(2) production in cocultures of mouse osteoblasts and bone marrow cells, and the stimulation was completely inhibited by NS398, a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor. Osteoblasts, but not bone marrow cells, produced PGE(2) in response to LPS. LPS-induced osteoclast formation was also inhibited by osteoprotegerin (OPG), a decoy receptor of receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL), but not by anti-mouse TNFR1 Ab or IL-1 receptor antagonist. LPS induced both stimulation of RANKL mRNA expression and inhibition of OPG mRNA expression in osteoblasts. NS398 blocked LPS-induced down-regulation of OPG mRNA expression, but not LPS-induced up-regulation of RANKL mRNA expression, suggesting that down-regulation of OPG expression by PGE(2) is involved in LPS-induced osteoclast formation in the cocultures. NS398 failed to inhibit LPS-induced osteoclastogenesis in cocultures containing OPG knockout mouse-derived osteoblasts. IL-1 also stimulated PGE(2) production in osteoblasts and osteoclast formation in the cocultures, and the stimulation was inhibited by NS398. As seen with LPS, NS398 failed to inhibit IL-1-induced osteoclast formation in cocultures with OPG-deficient osteoblasts. These results suggest that IL-1 as well as LPS stimulates osteoclastogenesis through two parallel events: direct enhancement of RANKL expression and suppression of OPG expression, which is mediated by PGE(2) production.  相似文献

We have previously shown that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) acted synergistically to stimulate the production of IL-6 by bone marrow stromal and osteoblastic cells; and that an antibody to IL-6 inhibited TNF-induced osteoclast development in murine calvarial cell cultures. Prompted by this evidence, we have now examined whether TNF and/or IL-1 are produced by murine calvarial cells, and whether these cytokines are involved in IL-6 production and osteoclast formation. When cultured under basal conditions, calvarial cells produced TNF and IL-6, and were able to form bone resorbing osteoclasts. A neutralizing antibody against TNF suppressed both basal IL-6 production and the formation of bone resorbing osteoclasts. The anti-TNF antibody also inhibited IL-6 production in response to exogenous IL-1 or parathyroid hormone (PTH). In contrast, a neutralizing anti-IL-1 receptor antibody had no effect on basal, TNF- or PTH-stimulated IL-6 production. These findings suggest that TNF, but not IL-1, is produced by murine bone cells and that endogenous TNF induces the IL-6 production, osteoclast formation, and bone resorption exhibited by these cultures under basal conditions. Furthermore, bone cell-derived TNF amplifies the stimulatory effect of exogenous IL-1 or PTH on IL-6 production by calvarial cells.  相似文献

We previously identified functional N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptors in mature osteoclasts and demonstrated that they are involved in bone resorption in vitro. In the present work, we studied the expression of NMDA receptors (NMDAR) by osteoclast precursors and their role in osteoclastogenesis using two in vitro models, the murine myelomonocytic RAW 264.7 cell line and mouse bone marrow cells, both of which differentiate into osteoclasts in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and Rank ligand (RankL). Using RT-PCR analysis with specific probes, we showed that RAW 264.7 cells and mouse bone marrow cells express mRNA of NMDAR subunits NMDA receptor 1 (NR1) and NMDA receptor 2 (NR2) A, B, and D. These subunits are expressed all along the differentiation sequence from undifferentiated precursors to mature resorbing osteoclasts. Semi-quantitative PCR analysis showed no regulation of the expression of these subunits during the differentiation process. Two specific non competitive antagonists of NMDAR, MK801 and DEP, dose-dependently inhibited osteoclast formation in both models, indicating that osteoclastogenesis requires the activation of NMDAR expressed by osteoclast precursors. MK801 had no effect when added only during the first 2 days of culture, suggesting that NMDAR are rather involved in the late stages of osteoclast formation. Finally, we demonstrated using Western-blotting and immunofluorescence that activation of NMDAR in RAW 264.7 cells by specific agonists induces nuclear translocation of NF-kappa B, a factor required for osteoclast formation. Altogether, our results indicate that osteoclast precursors express NMDAR that are involved in the osteoclast differentiation process through activation of the NF-kappa B pathway.  相似文献

Summary A “sequential culture step” system was devised to study osteoclast differentiation from newborn porcine bone marrow cells. Nonadherent cells were collected from cultures of bone marrow cells, and subsequently precultured at a low cell density in low-serum medium supplemented with L929-conditioned medium (L9-CM) derived M-CSF/CSF-1. After 4 d, adherent cells mainly composed of M-CSF-dependent macrophage/osteoclast progenitors, but devoid of stromal-like cells, were further cultured in medium supplemented with L9-CM and CM derived from serum-free cultures of fetal rat calvarial bones. This phase was characterized by a rapid induction of mono- and multinucleated (pre)osteoclast-like cells, positive for cytochemical TRAP activity, but negative for nonspecific esterase (NSE) staining. The presence of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] stimulated osteoclast generation, whereas calcitonin treatment significantly inhibited this process. The osteoclastic nature of the cells was confirmed by the occurrence of extensive, characteristic bone resorption on dentin slices, which was associated with release of type I collagen N-telopeptides from the bone matrix into the culture medium. The presence of a DNA synthesis inhibitor (HU) during the first 3 d of culture completely inhibited osteoclast formation, whereas HU treatment during the last phase did not affect production of multinucleated osteoclast-like cells. Likewise, a specific antibody directed against M-CSF during the first preculture period, completely abolished osteoclast formation. Adding the antibody during the last phase of the culture, however, strongly inhibited multinucleated osteoclast formation, accompanied by a significant increase in a mononuclear TRAP-positive, NSE-positive (osteoclast precursor) cell fraction. These results indicate that M-CSF is essential for progenitor proliferation as well as for (pre)osteoclast maturation and/or fusion into multinucleated cells, but also suggest that additional soluble (bone-derived) factors are involved as cofactors in the differentiation process to committed mononuclear osteoclast precursors. The porcine marrow culture approach provides a suitable model system to investigate specific soluble osteoclast-inducing factors affecting different stages of osteoclast development.  相似文献

Mouse marrow, which contains osteoblast and osteoclast precursors, was grown in the presence of calcitriol and/or basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2). RAW 264.7 cells were differentiated into osteoclast-like cells in the presence of receptor activator of NF-kappaB-Ligand (RANK-L) and/or FGF-2. FGF-2 alone supported osteoclastogenesis in mouse marrow cultures, but not by RAW 264.7 cells alone. Although FGF-2 supported low levels of osteoclastogenesis in mouse marrow cultures, it strongly inhibited the high levels of osteoclastogenesis triggered by calcitriol. Adding excess recombinant-RANK-L to the cultures did not relieve this inhibition. After mouse marrow osteoclasts were differentiated, FGF-2 dose-dependently inhibited bone resorptive activity. FGF-2 increased the tendency of RAW 264.7 osteoclast-like cells to fuse into very large giant cells and induced reorganizations of the actin cytoskeleton in mature, RANK-L-induced RAW 264.7 osteoclast-like cells. These results suggest that FGF-2 has both direct and indirect effects on osteoclast formation and bone resorption.  相似文献

Osteoclasts together with osteoblasts play pivotal roles in bone remodeling. The unique function and ability of osteoclasts to resorb bone makes them critical in both normal bone homeostasis and pathologic bone diseases such as osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Thus, new compounds that may inhibit osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast function may be of great value in the treatment of osteoclast-related diseases. In the present study, we examined the effect of jolkinolide B (JB), isolated from the root of Euphorbia fischeriana Steud on receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation. We found that JB inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation from bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) without cytotoxicity. Furthermore, the expression of osteoclastic marker genes, such as tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), cathepsin K (CtsK), and calcitonin receptor (CTR), was significantly inhibited. JB inhibited RANKL-induced activation of NF-κB by suppressing RANKL-mediated IκBα degradation. Moreover, JB inhibited RANKL-induced phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (p38, JNK, and ERK). This study thus identifies JB as an inhibitor of osteoclast formation and provides evidence that JB might be an alternative medicine for preventing and treating osteolysis.  相似文献

Human osteoclast formation from mononuclear phagocyte precursors involves interactions between tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand superfamily members and their receptors. Recent evidence indicates that in addition to triggering apoptosis, the TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) induces osteoclast differentiation. To understand TRAIL-mediated signal transduction mechanism in osteoclastogenesis, we demonstrated that TRAIL induces osteoclast differentiation via a Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF-6)-dependent signaling pathway. TRAIL-induced osteoclast differentiation was significantly inhibited by treatment with TRAF-6 siRNA and TRAF6 decoy peptides in both human monocytes and murine RAW264.7 macrophage cell lines, as evaluated in terms of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive multinucleated cells and bone resorption activity. Moreover, TRAIL-induced osteoclast differentiation was also abolished in TRAF6 knockout bone marrow macrophages. In addition to induction of NFATc1, treatment of TRAIL also induced ubiquitination of TRAF6 in osteoclast differentiation. Thus, our data demonstrate that TRAIL induces osteoclastic differentiation via a TRAF-6 dependent signaling pathway. This study suggests TRAF6-dependent signaling may be a central pathway in osteoclast differentiation, and that TNF superfamily molecules other than RANKL may modify RANK signaling by interaction with TRAF6-associated signaling.  相似文献
