It has been well established that bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) can induce bone formation bothin vivo andin vitro, although high concentrations (up to milligrams) of BMP-2 have been required to achieve this effectin vivo. Further, clinical applications are usually limited to a single dose at the time of implantation. In an attempt to prolong
the transforming effect of BMP-2 we used a recombinant adenoviral vector carrying the human BMP-2 gene (Adv-BMP2) to transduce
marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) of skeletally mature male New Zealand white rabbits. The pluripotential MSC were
incubated with Adv-BMP2 overnight followed by culture in growth medium for 1 week. Assays on tissue cultures demonstrated
that these Adv-BMP2 transduced MSC produced BMP-2 protein, differentiated into an osteoprogenitor line, and induced bone formationin vitro. These MSC had increased alkaline phosphatase activity, increased expression of type I collagen, osteopontin, and osteocalcin
mRNA, and induced matrix mineralization compared with both nontransduced cells and cells transduced with a control adenoviral
construct. To analyze the osteogenic potentialin vivo, Adv-BMP2-transduced MSC were autologously implanted into the intertransverse process space between L5 and L6 of the donor
rabbits. The production of new bone was demonstrated by radiographic examination 4 weeks later in areas implanted with cells
transduced with Adv-BMP2, whereas no bone was evident at sites implanted with cells transduced with the control adenoviral
construct. Histological examination further confirmed the presence of new bone formation. These accumulated data indicate
that it is possible to successfully transduce mesenchymal stem cells with a recombinant adenoviral vector carrying the gene
for BMP-2 such that these cells will produce BMP-2, differentiate into an osteoprogenitor line, and induce bone formation
bothin vitro andin vivo. Moreover, incubation of the Adv-BMP2-transduced cells for an additional 7 days in culture before transplantation enhances
the success rate in bone formation (three out of three) as compared with our previous report (one out of five, Calcif Tissue
Int 63:357–360, 1998).

Osteogenic Protein-1 Stimulates mRNA Levels of BMP-6 and Decreases mRNA Levels of BMP-2 and -4 in Human Osteosarcoma Cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are novel growth and differentiation factors that act on mesenchymal stem cells to initiate
new bone formation in vivo and promote the growth and differentiation of cells in the osteoblastic lineage. In the present study, we examined the effects
of recombinant human osteogenic protein-1 (also known as BMP-7) on the expression of related members of the BMP family using
SaOS-2 and U2-OS, two human osteosarcoma cell strains. Evaluation of BMP-2, -4, and -6 mRNA expression indicates that OP-1
stimulated the mRNA levels of BMP-6 in both SaOS-2 cells (threefold) and U2-OS cells (fivefold) after 24 hours of treatment,
while decreasing the mRNA levels of BMP-4 in SaOS-2 cells (80%) and BMP-2 and BMP-4 in U2-OS cells by 50% and 72%, respectively.
BMP-2 mRNA expression, as examined by Northern blot analysis, was below detectable limits in SaOS-2 cultures. These results
demonstrate that OP-1 modulates the mRNA expression of related members of the BMP family, suggesting a possible mode of action
of OP-1 on the growth and differentiation of cells in the osteoblastic lineage in vitro.

Expression of BMP-2 by Rat Bone Marrow Stromal Cells in Culture 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
To investigate the role of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP-2) in ossifying rat bone marrow stromal cell cultures, we determined
the population of fibroblast-like stromal cells that expressed BMP-2 immunocytochemically (anti-rhBMP-2 monoclonal antibody),
and compared that to alkaline phosphatase (AP) and collagen synthesis formed in culture over a 4-week period in control and
dexamethasone-supplemented mineralizing media. In control media, the percentage of BMP-2-positive stromal cells (BMP-2+) increased from 12 to 25% within the first 4 days of culture. In mineralizing media, the level of BMP-2+ cells was significantly increased (43–44%). The intensity of immunostaining gradually increased with time. The levels of
AP were undetectable at 1 week in both control and mineralizing media, but increased gradually over the next 2 weeks and peaked
at 3 weeks. ALP levels were significantly greater in cultures grown in mineralizing medium (P < 0.05 at 3 weeks, P < 0.01 at 4 weeks). Collagen synthesis peaked and was significantly greater at 3 weeks (P < 0.05) in cultures grown in mineralizing medium. The levels of AP and collagen synthesis most closely reflected the changes
in the percentage of BMP-2+ cells from 7 to 28 days. Though these changes may reflect a primary action of BMP-2 on marrow osteoprogenitor-like stromal
cells, they do not exclude a mechanism that involves the induction of other members of the BMP family known to stimulate AP
and collagen synthesis. We conclude that BMP-2 expression in cultures of fibroblast-like marrow stromal cells is enhanced
when those cells are induced to become osteoblasts by exposure to dexamethasone.

A novel, immortalized, human bone marrow stroma-derived cell line TF274 is described which has the ability to form bone both
in vitro and in vivo. Under basal conditions these cells expressed alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and type I collagen genes which are characteristic
of the osteoblast phenotype. ALP levels were upregulated in the presence of osteotropic agents such as parathyroid hormone
(PTH), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), and BMP-2. In addition, PTH also increased cAMP levels in these cells. The
capacity of these cells to form bone in vitro was evaluated by culturing them in the presence of L-ascorbic acid and β-glycerophosphate. Matrix mineralization in these
cultures was assessed by Alizarin Red staining and increased 45Ca uptake. Under these conditions mineralized nodule formation was observed in less than 2 weeks. Northern analysis of TF274
cells at various times during the mineralization process indicated a temporal expression of the osteocalcin gene that is typically
associated with differentiating osteoblasts. The osteogenic nature of TF274 cells was confirmed in vivo using the severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mouse model. Antibodies to human leukocyte antigens (HLA), class I antigens,
and human OKa blood group antigen were used to demonstrate that the lesions formed were of human origin. By 21 days, the lesion consisted
of a homogeneous focus of ALP-positive cells containing areas of mineralized bone lined with tartarate-resistant acid phosphatase
(TRAP) positive osteoclasts. Thus, the TF274 cells exhibit osteogenic potential both in vitro and in vivo. This immortalized cell line represents a consistent source of cells that can be used to study human osteoblast differentiation
both in vitro and in vivo.

Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) is known to stimulate endosteal bone formation in vivo by a mechanism possibly mediated via osteoblast precursor cells present in the bone marrow. In high density cultures of primary
bone marrow cells, and in the presence of glucocorticoids, bFGF stimulates the formation of a bone-like matrix; however, due
to the dense nature of these cultures, the exact mechanism of action is unclear. In an adaptation of the fibroblastic colony
formation unit assay, in which the bone marrow cells are grown in the presence of dexamethasone, β-glycerophosphate, and ascorbate,
mineralized colonies are formed which stem from single mesenchymal precursor cells and grow in isolation from each other.
Using this system we have been able to investigate the mechanism by which bFGF stimulates the formation of bone like tissue
in vitro. We have shown that bFGF increases the formation of a calcified collagenous matrix in vitro by (1) increasing the total number of fibroblastic colonies formed, (2) increasing the proportion of differentiated colonies
that synthesize collagen and calcify, and (3) stimulating the proliferation and collagen accumulation of the individual colonies.
A maximal increase in total and differentiated colony numbers was seen after only 5 days exposure to bFGF, however, continued
exposure to bFGF continued to increase the size and collagen content of the individual colonies. Bearing in mind the endosteal
location of newly formed bone seen after treatment with bFGF, these processes may well play an active role in this effect.

Normal bone formation is a prolonged process that is carefully regulated and involves sequential expression of growth regulatory
factors by osteoblasts as they proliferate and ultimately differentiate. Since this orderly sequence of gene expression by
osteoblasts suggests a cascade effect, and BMP-2 is capable of initiating and maintaining this effect, we examined the effects
of BMP-2 on expression of other BMPs and compared these effects with the expression pattern of bone cell differentiation marker
genes in primary cultures of fetal rat calvarial (FRC) osteoblasts. To examine the gene expression profile during bone cell
differentiation and bone formation, we also examined the effects of rBMP-2 on bone formation in vivo and in vitro. rBMP-2 stimulated bone formation on the periosteal surface of mice when 500 ng/day rBMP-2 was injected subcutaneously. When
rBMP-2 was added to primary cultures of FRC osteoblasts, it accelerated mineralized nodule formation in a time and concentration-dependent
manner (10–40 ng/ml). rBMP-2 (40 ng/ml) enhanced BMP-3 and -4 mRNA expression during the mineralization phase of primary cultures
of FRC osteoblasts. Enhancement of BMP-3 and -4 mRNA expression by rBMP-2 was associated with increased expression of bone
cell differentiation marker genes, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), type I collagen, osteocalcin (OC), osteopontin (OP), and bone
sialoprotein (BSP). These results suggest that BMP-2 enhances expression of other BMP genes during bone cell differentiation.
BMP-2 may act in a paracrine fashion in concert with other BMPs it induces to stimulate bone cell differentiation and bone
formation during remodeling.

Age-Related Changes in the Expression of Cadherin-11, the Mesenchyme Specific Calcium-Dependent Cell Adhesion Molecule 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cadherin-11 is a calcium-dependent cell adhesion molecule that is expressed in cells of the mesenchymal lineage during embryonic
development. In this study we show, for the first time, that cadherin-11 gene is expressed in the bone marrow and bone cells
obtained from rabbits of various age groups. Furthermore, a quantitative measurement of gene expression revealed that cadherin-11
was expressed in young rabbits (6 week-old: open epiphysis) at a level of 6.7 × 105± 0.7 × 105 molecules; in mature rabbits (8–10 month-old: closed epiphysis) at 11 × 105± 0.9 × 105 molecules; and in aged rabbits (4–5 year-old) at a level of 1.2 × 105± 0.2 × 105 molecules/μg total RNA. The relative level of cadherin-11 gene expression in mature rabbit marrow was found to be approximately
50% greater than in young rabbits. However, aged animals showed a reduction in cadherin-11 specific gene expression of greater
than 900% as compared with mature animals. Age-related changes in bone remodeling/turnover lead to reduced bone density and
high fracture risk, and since cadherins play a crucial role in tissue morphogenesis, this marked decrease may represent an
index of the aging process in bone.

The cellular localization and roles of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 and apoptosis-associating factors in human orofacial
development remain unclear. In this study, BMP-2, osteocalcin, and TGF-β, which are bone-differentiating markers, apoptosis-associating
factors (i.e., Bcl-2, Bax, Fas, and Fas ligand), apoptotic cells detected by the in situ 3′-end labeling method (TUNEL), and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were immunohistochemically examined in the
heads (in particular, the jaw bone and tooth germs) of human fetuses of 11-week pregnancy. BMP-2 was positive in osteoblasts
and newly formed osteoid of the incisive and palatal bone of the maxilla and the mandible, which indicated that BMP-2 was
exclusively involved in intramembranous ossification in the human fetal head. Fas was positive in the cytoplasm of osteocytes
and a few osteoblasts. In contrast, Fas ligand was positive in the cytoplasm of osteoblasts and abundant in the stroma of
the osteoblastic layer, periosteum, and perichondrium. The Fas ligand in the stroma was recognized as the soluble form, which
was possibly produced by osteoblasts. TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells were found in a few osteocytes and a few osteoblastic
cells in new bone, and in monocytes of degenerate Meckel's cartilage. The induction of apoptosis observed in monocytes seems
to be caused via a Fas-Fas ligand cell death system, because some of these monocytes were Fas-positive, and most of them were
Fas ligand-positive. Interestingly, the abundant soluble Fas ligand observed in the periosteum probably protects the bone-formative
zone from the invasion of the activated lymphocytes by binding to Fas expressing in these lymphocytes and killing these cells.
Fas and Fas ligand were focally positive in the dental lamina and inner enamel epithelium and cusps of the enamel organ, nevertheless,
the presence of TUNEL-positive cells was very rare. Bcl-2 was clearly and Bax was weakly positive in the cells throughout
the dental lamina and enamel organ. These findings indicated that Fas-mediated apoptosis was inhibited by the Bcl-2 family
in the development of teeth.

Bone formation following transplantation of genetically modified primary bone marrow stromal cells. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Bone marrow stromal cells contain mesenchymal stem cells that can differentiate into a variety of mesenchymal tissues; in the presence of BMP-2, for example, they differentiate into osteoblasts. We constructed replication-deficient adenoviral vectors encoding human BMP-2 (BMP-2/Ad) or BMP-4 (BMP-4/Ad) and used them to transduce primary bone marrow stromal cells from the femurs of four-week-old female C3H mice, which then expressed and processed functional BMP-2 or BMP-4 protein. Enzyme assays and histochemical staining showed both groups of cells to possess alkaline phosphatase activity, a marker of differentiation into osteoblasts, though the activity was higher in cells transduced with BMP-2/Ad. When BMP-2/Ad-transduced cells were injected into the thigh muscles of immunocompetent C3H mice, ossicle development was detected on radiographs within four weeks after injection. Moreover, histological analysis indicated that newly developed ossicles contain mature osseous components, including cortical bone and bone marrow, within eight weeks. Thus, syngeneic transplantation of genetically modified primary bone marrow stromal cells induced bone formation in immunocompetent mice, perhaps indicating its potential for use in the development of therapeutic protocols aimed at enhancing bone formation. 相似文献

Fibrodysplasia (myositis) ossificans progressiva (FOP) is an extremely rare inherited disorder in which progressive ossification
of major striated muscles, often following injury, is associated with abnormal skeletal patterning. Altered expression of
bone morphogenetic proteins may be a contributory cause. To examine this hypothesis, we compared the patterns of expression
of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) mRNAs from lymphoblastoid cell lines from two small multigenerational families with
autosomal dominant transmission of FOP. Although affected members of both families showed the characteristic phenotype of
FOP, one family was more severely affected than the other. Expression of mRNAs for BMP-1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 mRNAs were not detected
within the more severely affected family, but BMP-4 mRNA was expressed in affected but not unaffected members of this family.
The results of linkage exclusion analysis using a highly polymorphic microsatellite marker near the BMP-4 gene were consistent
with linkage of FOP and BMP-4 in this family. Within the less severely affected family, affected and unaffected members showed
similar levels of mRNA expression of BMPs 1, 2, 4, and 5, and linkage of FOP to the BMP-4 gene was excluded. It is concluded
that clinical, radiographic, and biochemical data in these two families with FOP establish clinical and molecular heterogeneity
and also suggest the possibility of genetic heterogeneity.

Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) of the spine is characterized by heterotopic bone formation occurring
in spinal ligament, causing severe compression myelopathy. In order to investigate the mechanism of OPLL development, we isolated
spinal ligament cells from OPLL patients as well as non-OPLL patients, and established 10 OPLL cell lines and 7 non-OPLL cell
lines, respectively. We analyzed the effects of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) on these cells with respect to alkaline
phosphatase (AP) activity, DNA synthesis, and collagen production. BMP-2 caused a significant increase of AP activity in 4
OPLL cell lines, whereas the activity did not change in any non-OPLL cells. Among OPLL cells, BMP-2 stimulated DNA synthesis
in four cell lines and procollagen type I carboxyl-terminal peptide (PICP) synthesis in five cell lines. Some non-OPLL cells
also responded to BMP-2, as there was an increase of DNA synthesis in three cell lines and PICP synthesis in one cell line.
These data collectively indicate that BMP-2 preferentially induces osteogenic differentiation in OPLL cells rather than in
non-OPLL cells. OPLL cells, therefore, exhibit a different response to BMP-2 than non-OPLL cells, suggesting that the expression
of BMP receptor(s) and/or the signal transduction initiated by BMP-2 in the spinal ligament cells of OPLL patients somewhat
deviate from those in normal spinal ligament cells. Such abnormal characteristics of OPLL cells as described here provide
some clues to the clarification of the pathogenesis of OPLL.

Our previous studies of rat cranial defect repairs after the implantation of demineralized bone matrix (DBM) have demonstrated
that healing occurs initially and principally by the direct induction and proliferation of osteoblasts derived principally
from resident mesenchymal stem cells of the dura, and to a lesser extent by resident mesenchymal stem cells of the connective
tissues beneath the skin flap. A small amount of cartilage is also synthesized after the direct process of ossification occurs.
To further confirm the molecular phenotypes of the repair cells in rat cranial defects, the present study evaluated mRNA expression
and synthesis of collagens I, II, and X and osteocalcin in the DBM-induced repair tissue by Northern blot analyses, autoradiography
after in vivo
3H-proline labeling of collagen, and immunohistochemistry. The results demonstrated that osteocalcin mRNA appeared in small
amounts by day 4 and continued to increase over the experimental period. Much lesser quantities of collagen types II and X
mRNAs appeared by day 6 and day 8, respectively. Collagen type I mRNA was present at all times examined but its expression
significantly increased by day 5. Autoradiographic and immunohistochemical studies showed that type II collagen was not detected
whereas type I collagen was synthesized on days 3–5. The data provide definitive molecular evidence confirming that the initial
and by far the major pathway of cranial defects repair induced by implantation of DBM is by the direct induction of resident
mesenchymal stem cells to osteoblasts and the direct formation of bone, which is spatially and temporarily distinct from the
later formation of cartilage.

Explant cultures of adult rabbit bone were obtained from a variety of skeletal sites, with the intention of using the cells
in a new type of bone graft. The explant cultures contained large numbers of esterase-positive, alkaline phosphatase-negative,
TRAP-negative macrophage-like cells (MP), as well as osteoblast-like osteoprogenitor (OP) cells (alkaline phosphatase-positive).
OP numbers were assessed by cell counts and MTT assay. The presence of the MP cells appeared to give rise to a reduction in
OP numbers in culture, through cell detachment and cell lysis. In addition, after passaging, many OP were unable to reattach
to the culture vessels in the presence of MP, depending upon the surface area available for reattachment. The presence of
tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) in culture medium from these cell cultures was demonstrated by a specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent
assay (ELISA). A direct relationship was demonstrated between MP numbers and TNFα concentration and an inverse relationship
between MP numbers and OP numbers in co-cultures. This was also found when OP cells were exposed to different concentrations
of rTNFα, in place of the MP. Incubation with anti-TNFα inhibited the effect of MP and TNFα on OP. These results suggest that
MP are able to cause detachment and lysis of OP cells, probably by secretion of a soluble factor in vitro which may be TNFα.

The 6093 line of transgenic mice exhibits altered bone development as a result of an insertional mutation by the transgene.
Female transgenic mice show a marked kyphosis as early as 2 weeks of age. Vertebrae from female mice have lower total bone
area and mineral content than age-matched, gender-matched controls, although the bone mineral density is not changed. The
femur and tibia exhibit the opposite effect—increased bone area and mineral content. Fluorescent bone label experiments indicated
an increased rate of bone mineral deposition in the femur during the early postnatal growth period, and bone marrow from femurs
of 6093 females had increased numbers of fibroblast colony-forming units. Transgenic females also are obese and have altered
thymocyte development, suggesting that the insertional mutation affects multiple cell populations. We hypothesize that these
phenotypes arise as a result of an alteration in the function or developmental potential of a stromal cell or mesenchymal
stem cell.

The abundance of endothelial cells in bone marrow and the proximity of these cells to osteoclasts and osteoblasts suggest
a role for endothelin-1 (ET-1) on bone metabolism. In vitro, the direct contact with bone endothelial cells induces osteoclastic progenitors to differentiate into mature elements. Recently
it has been reported that ET-1 inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption and cell mobility through a specific receptor on osteoclasts;
other authors demonstrated that ET-1 exerts a mitogenic activity on osteoblast-like cells (MC3T3) by stimulating tyrosin phosphorylation.
We measured ET-1 circulating levels in patients with active Paget's bone disease, a condition with accelerated bone turnover.
For the study we recruited 11 patients with Paget's bone disease (5F, 6M; mean age 68.2 ± 3.6) in the acute stage of the disease;
10 healthy subjects (7F, 3M; mean age 66.5 ± 3.9) were also enrolled as controls. Plasma ET-1 levels were measured with RIA
kits provided by Nichols Institute. Patients showed significantly (P < 0.01) higher ET-1 circulating levels than controls (6.35 ± 1.9 versus 3.4 ± 1.2 pg/ml) with a positive correlation (r =
0.63; P= 0.038) with serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), but not with urinary hydroxyproline. The higher levels of ET-1 in our patients
suggest a physiopathological role for this peptide in the disease and, could perhaps represent a new useful marker of Paget's
bone disease activity.

Fluoride Treatment Increased Serum IGF-1, Bone Turnover,and Bone Mass,but Not Bone Strength,in Rabbits 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We hypothesized that fluoride partly acts by changing the levels of circulating calcium-regulating hormones and skeletal
growth factors. The effects of oral fluoride on 24 female, Dutch-Belted, young adult rabbits were studied. The rabbits were
divided into two study groups, one control and the other receiving about 16 mg fluoride/rabbit/day in their drinking water.
After 6 months of fluoride dosing, all rabbits were euthanized and bone and blood samples were taken for analyses. Fluoride
treatment increased serum and bone fluoride levels by over an order of magnitude (P < 0.001), but did not affect body weight or the following serum biochemical variables: urea, creatinine, phosphorus, total
protein, albumin, bilirubin, SGOT, or total alkaline phosphatase. No skeletal fluorosis or osteomalacia was observed histologically,
nor did fluoride affect serum PTH or Vitamin D metabolites (P > 0.4). BAP was increased 37% (P < 0.05) by fluoride; serum TRAP was increased 42% (P < 0.05); serum IGF-1 was increased 40% (P < 0.05). Fluoride increased the vertebral BV/TV by 35% (P < 0.05) and tibial ash weight by 10% (P < 0.05). However, the increases in bone mass and bone formation were not reflected in improved bone strength. Fluoride decreased
bone strength by about 19% in the L5 vertebra (P < 0.01) and 25% in the femoral neck (P < 0.05). X-ray diffraction showed altered mineral crystal thickness in fluoride-treated bones (P < 0.001), and there was a negative association between crystal width and fracture stress of the femur (P < 0.02). In conclusion, fluoride's effects on bone mass and bone turnover were not mediated by PTH. IGF-1 was increased by
fluoride and was associated with increased bone turnover, but was not correlated with bone formation markers. High-dose fluoride
treatment did not improve, but decreased, bone strength in rabbits, even in the absence of impaired mineralization.
