To determine the involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) in nitric oxide (NO) synthesis of osteoblast, a combination of proinflammatory
cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-α, interferon-γ, bacterial lipopolysaccharide) were added on rat osteoblast-like cells. Results
show that these cytokines clearly enhanced the synthesis of NO. The activation of PKC with phorbol ester also resulted in
the stimulation of NO synthesis in these cells. These cytokines activated PKC and increased the levels of intracellular Ca2+. In addition, the cytokine-induced synthesis of NO was blocked by PKC inhibitors. Findings suggest the involvement of PKC
in the synthesis of NO by rat osteoblasts.

Etidronate (EHDP) Inhibits Osteoclastic-Bone Resorption, Promotes Apoptosis and Disrupts Actin Rings in Isolate-Mature Osteoclasts 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Bisphosphonates, therapeutic reagents against tumoral bone diseases (Paget's disease or osteoporosis), are potent inhibitors
of bone resorption. The mechanisms by which they directly act on mature osteoclasts remain unclear. Using a recently developed
technique for isolation of highly purified mammalian mature osteoclasts, we demonstrated that etidronate [ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate
(EHDP), 1-hydroxy-1,1-ethylidenebisphosphonate], inhibited directly osteoclastic bone-resorbing activity by pit assay. In
addition, EHDP also directly induced apoptosis and disrupted actin rings in osteoclasts. The data support previous data on
non-purified osteoclasts and results in vivo.

Bone loss and osteoporotic fractures are common in cardiac transplant recipients. To compare two prophylactic medical regimens
after heart transplantation, 26 consecutive heart transplant recipients were randomized to receive either continuous oral
calcitriol (0.5 μg/day) combined with nasal salmon calcitonin (200 U/day) for the first 3 months (group A) or intermittent
intravenous pamidronate (0.5 mg/kg body weight) every third month (group B). Bone mineral density (BMD) and biochemical indices
of bone turnover were measured at baseline and 3, 6, 12, and 18 months after transplantation. The mean pretransplant BMD,
measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was significantly lower in the patients compared with age-matched healthy
controls. During the first year of treatment, rates of bone loss at the lumbar spine and femoral neck were slightly but significantly
slower in the patients treated with pamidronate, but there was no longer a significant difference between the two groups after
18 months of heart transplantation. Irrespective of the mode of osteoporosis prevention, osteocalcin levels increased whereas
urinary deoxypyridinoline decreased after transplantation, and significant bone loss was observed in both treatment groups.
We found no relationship between initial BMD, markers of bone turnover, cumulative glucocorticoid dose, or cyclosporine levels
and the rate of bone loss after cardiac transplantation. In summary, we found that the rapid and severe bone loss following
heart transplantation could be attenuated by two preventive measures, pamidronate or calcitriol with calcitonin.

The development of the potential of osteoblasts to support bone resorption by osteoclasts in response to roughness on bone
slices was examined in the co-incubation cell system of immature osteoclasts and osteoblastic cells. The immature osteoclasts,
which need alkaline phospatase (ALP)-positive osteoblastic cells for bone resorption, were generated in mouse spleen cultures
with 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and prostaglandin E2. ALP-negative osteoblastic cells from mouse calvaria were incubated on rough surfaced bone slices for 3 days. The number
of ALP-positive cells increased greatly on the rough surface, but little on the smooth surface. When immature osteoclasts
were added and incubated for 1 more day, the resorption pit number and the total pit areas on the smooth surface were not
much different from those before incubation but were approximately four times higher on the rough surface.

Calcitonin Provides Complete Protection Against Cancellous Bone Loss in the Femoral Neck of Ovariectomized Rats 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Calcitonin (CT) has been found to partially prevent cancellous bone loss in the proximal tibia of ovariectomized (OVX) rats.
The current study was designed to determine whether CT has similar bone protective effects in the femoral neck, a skeletal
site with a slower rate of bone loss after ovariectomy than the proximal tibia. Female Sprague Dawley rats were sham-operated
or ovariectomized at 3 months of age. Groups of OVX rats were injected s.c. with vehicle or CT at a dose of 16 U/kg body weight
on alternate days for 30, 60, or 90 days. Sham-operated control rats were treated with vehicle alone on alternate days. The
proximal femur from each rat was processed undecalcified for quantitative bone histomorphometry. Cancellous bone volume in
the femoral neck of vehicle-treated OVX rats was significantly less than that of vehicle-treated control rats at all time
points. This cancellous osteopenia induced by ovariectomy was associated with increased indices of bone turnover such as osteoclast
surface, osteoblast surface, and bone formation rate (tissue level, total surface referent). In contrast, cancellous bone
volume in the femoral neck of CT-treated OVX rats was nearly identical of that of vehicle-treated control rats throughout
the study. In addition, CT treatment of OVX rats decreased all indices of bone turnover to near the level of vehicle-treated
control rats. The results indicate that CT treatment depresses bone turnover and provides complete protection against moderate
cancellous osteopenia in the femoral neck of OVX rats. Since previous studies have shown that CT only partially protects against
more pronounced cancellous bone loss in the proximal tibia of OVX rats, our findings suggest that CT has a greater bone protective
effect at a skeletal site with a slower rate of cancellous bone loss (femoral neck) than at a skeletal site with a rapid rate
of cancellous bone loss (proximal tibia).

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of intermittent calcitonin on femoral bone quality in adult ewes from the
time of ovariectomy. Six months after the start of the experiment, bone density measurements and mechanical testing (torsion
and resonant frequency analysis of the diaphysis and compression of an excised trabecular bone cylinder from the femoral neck)
were performed in sham-control and ovariectomized (OVX) ewes treated with placebo or salmon calcitonin (50 or 100 units, 3
times/week). Crystallinity of bone was evaluated by measuring X-ray diffraction line broadening. After OVX, a nonsignificant
bone loss was found at all measured sites in the femur (−3 to −9%) together with a decreased biomechanical competence in the
trabecular bone (compressive strain −28%, P < 0.05). Treatment with salmon calcitonin, 50 or 100 IU subcutaneously three times a week from the time of ovariectomy, resulted
in a significant dose-dependent preservation of bone strength in the trabecular bone of the femoral neck compared with OVX.
No adverse effects of calcitonin were observed on bone crystal composition as assessed by diffractiometry. We conclude that
in adult ewes intermittent calcitonin treatment from the time of OVX was associated with a significant preservation of cancellous
bone strength and strain in trabecular bone of the femoral neck, without affecting crystalline properties of bone.

Prostaglandins (PGs) are well known to be important local factors in regulating bone formation and resorption. PGE2 is a potent stimulator of bone resorption because of enhancing osteoclast formation by its indirect action through stromal
cells. However, the direct action of PGE2 on functionally mature osteoclasts is still controversial. In this study using highly purified rabbit mature osteoclasts,
we examined the direct effect of PGE2 on osteoclastic bone-resorbing activity and its mechanism. PGE2 inhibited resorption pit formation on a dentine slice by the purified osteoclasts in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The
inhibitory effect appeared as early as 4 hours after the PGE2 addition. Forskolin and 12-0-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), respective activators of adenylate cyclase and protein
kinase C, also decreased the osteoclastic bone-resorbing activity. PGE2 increased the content of intracellular cAMP in a dose range effective for the inhibition of bone resorption, whereas the
prostanoid did not alter the intracellular level of inositol triphosphate. The inhibition of osteoclastic bone resorption
by PGE2 was amplified and diminished by a cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor (isobutyl methylxanthine) and a protein kinase A inhibitor
(Rp-cAMP), respectively. Of four different subtypes of PGE2 receptors (EPs), EP4 mRNA was predominantly expressed in isolated osteoclasts, whereas the other types of EP mRNA were detected
in only small amounts. These results suggest that the PGE2 inhibitory effect was mediated by an adenylate cyclase system coupled with EP4. This possible association of PGE2 with EP4 in mature osteoclasts was supported by the finding that a specific agonist of EP4 (AE-604) inhibited the bone-resorbing
activity and elevated the intracellular cAMP content. However, butaprost, a selective EP2 agonist, also mimicked the PGE2 effects on isolated osteoclasts although EP2 mRNA expression was minimal. In conclusion, PGE2 directly inhibits bone-resorbing activity of functionally mature osteoclasts by activation of the adenylate cyclase system,
perhaps mainly through EP4.

In this study we used an in vitro assay system with osteoblast and osteoclast co-cultures to assess the effect of purified recombinant Pasteurella multocida toxin on bone resorption. Resorption was measured by the release of a telopeptide breakdown product of type I collagen. It
was found that P. multocida did not stimulate bone resorption by osteoclasts directly and also did not stimulate bone breakdown via the release of collagenase
or other proteases from osteoblasts. During co-culture of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, with cell-cell contact prevented, P. multocida toxin produced no significant effect. Osteoblast-conditioned media gave a biphasic effect; low concentrations of P. multocida toxin stimulated bone resorption, whereas 100 ng/ml inhibited resorption by osteoclasts. However, when both cell types were
co-cultured with cell-cell contact permitted, P. multocida toxin induced a large concentration-dependent increase in bone resorption over a 7-day period. This suggested that P. multocida toxin causes bone breakdown via an osteoblast-dependent mechanism and that a membrane-bound receptor may be involved.

Breast cancer cells (BCC) have calcitonin (CT) receptors, yet the action of the hormone on these cells is largely unknown.
We found that CT produced a strong and transient time- and dose-dependent increase in c-fos mRNA in BCC lines. This event was prevented by a protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor, H89. CT alone did not influence the expression
of c-jun and of the tissue inhibitors of metalloproteases (timp) -1 and -2 mRNAs; however, it reduced the induction of these mRNAs by the protein kinase C (PKC) activator phorbol 12-myristate
13-acetate (PMA), without apparent changes in the half-life of the mRNA (measured for c-jun). Along the same line, CT reduced the c-jun induction and T-47D growth stimulation by epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin. These effects were mimicked by forskolin
and/or prevented by H89, suggesting that PKA activation was involved. These results indicate that CT modulates in BCC the
mRNA levels of two important growth-related early response genes (c-fos and c-jun) and of two other genes (timp-1 and -2) involved in the control of metastatic events.

Colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) is the growth factor for the cells of the mononuclear phagocytic system and for osteoclasts.
We tested whether phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), a phorbol ester activating protein kinase C, modulates the number of binding
sites for CSF-1 on isolated rat osteoclasts. PMA decreased binding of CSF-1 to osteoclasts within 60 minutes. The effect of
PMA was dose dependent at concentrations between 10−9 M and 10−6 M. The inactive phorbol ester, 4α-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate, had only a slight effect. Since the osteoclast preparation was
contaminated with other cells, the action of PMA on the osteoclasts might have been either direct or indirect. In pure osteoclasts
harvested by a micropipette, the downregulation of CSF-1 binding by PMA reached only about three-quarters of that in nonpurified
preparations. Addition of osteoblastic osteosarcoma UMR106 cells increased the effect of PMA. Antiserum against CSF-1, which
was added to osteoclasts contaminated with other cells, mainly osteoblasts, partially inhibited the effect of PMA, but the
antiserum had no effect in pure osteoclasts. These data suggest that the effect mediated by osteoblasts or other contaminating
cells is due to the release of CSF-1, which is known to downregulate its binding sites on osteoclasts. The direct action of
PMA on osteoclasts decreased the binding only to about 40%, in contrast to CSF-1 which completely downregulated the binding.
The data also differ from the published results about macrophages. In these cells, PMA downregulates the binding of CSF-1
completely. The CSF-1 binding sites on osteoclasts recovered within 4 hours after removal of PMA, and cycloheximide, an inhibitor
of protein synthesis, inhibited the recovery.

Calcitriol has been widely used in the management of osteoporosis, but its efficiency is a matter of controversy. It is not
known whether combinations of calcitriol and antiresorptive agents such as etidronate and calcitonin are superior to calcitriol
alone in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis. To make this determination, 30 Turkish women with postmenopausal osteoporosis
between 45 and 68 years of age were randomized to receive either intermittent cyclical etidronate (400 mg/day, for 14 days)
followed by 60 days of cyclical calcitriol therapy 0.25 μg twice daily (group 1; n= 10), or calcitriol 0.25 μg twice daily (group 2; n= 10), or calcitriol 0.25 μg/day in combination with 100 IU intranasal salmon calcitonin taken every other day (group 3; n= 10) through a 1-year period. Bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spine (L2 to L4) was determined for each patient by dual-photon
absorptiometry (153Gd) at baseline, after 6 months, and at the end of the study. There was no significant difference among groups with respect
to mean spinal BMD at baseline, after 6, and after 12 months. No significant spinal BMD changes occurred in any group from
baseline, after 6 months, and after 12 months. Four patients in groups 1 and 2 and five patients in group 3 developed hypercalcemia
at least once during therapy. Hypercalciuria occurred at least once in 9, 10, and 7 patients in groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively.
One patient in group 2 developed a renal stone at the end of the study. Mean urine hydroxyproline levels did not change significantly
in any group with respect to baseline. The data suggest that one-year treatment with calcitriol, given either alone or in
combination with antiresorptive agents, does not improve spinal BMD in Turkish women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and
is associated with a high rate of adverse events.

Protein kinase C (PKC) plays an important role in the differentiation of cells, however, little is known about its relationship
to bone metabolism. We have previously demonstrated that staurosporine concentration dependently transformed the cultured
rat osteoblasts into stellate cells. In this study, we further investigated the possible mechanisms and significance of the
morphological changes of osteoblasts induced by staurosporine. The morphological changes induced by staurosporine were inhibited
by microtubule depolymerizers or elevated intracellular calcium, however, actin depolymerizers enhanced the effects of staurosporine.
Fluorescence labeling showed that staurosporine caused the dissolution of the actin microfilaments, but left the microtubules
and vimentin filaments intact. PKC activators partially antagonized the morphological changes induced by staurosporine. Inhibition
of protein kinase A or calmodulin-dependent kinase is less effective in the induction of stellate cell formation. These results
suggest that the morphological changes of osteoblasts induced by staurosporine may be partly due to PKC inhibition, but other
mechanisms may also be involved.

In humans, gastric surgery results in in osteopenia via mechanisms that are insufficiently understood; surgery-induced changes
in the hormonal axes involving the stomach, thyroid, and the parathyroids may play a role. To study this in more detail, we
evaluated calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and phosphorus (P) metabolism as well as physical, chemical, and histomorphometric
bone parameters in rats rendered hypergastrinemic by fundectomy (FX). In independent experiments, the response to an oral
Ca challenge was investigated in intact rats versus FX, and in thyroidectomized versus thyroid-intact FX rats. Sixteen weeks
following FX, body weight was approximately 80% that of sham-operated controls. In urine, P excretion was elevated fivefold,
the pH was significantly decreased, and cAMP excretion was elevated as compared with controls; serum parathyroid hormone (PTH),
calcitonin, 25OHD, Ca, Mg, and P were normal; gastrin and 1,25(OH)2D were elevated. On the basis of bone ash mineral content, FX rats developed significant osteopenia, and histomorphometry
indicated only slightly elevated bone turnover and mineralization. Following oral Ca, thyroid-intact FX rats developed hypercalcemia,
serum gastrin decreased, and calcitonin increased significantly; in thyroidectomized FX rats, calcitonin remained at baseline
levels although there was a similar degree of hypercalcemia; PTH decreased during the hypercalcemic period in both groups.
Serum gastrin did not correlate with calcitonin or PTH, and in multivariate regression analysis the only predictor of serum
1,25(OH)2D was urinary phosphorus. It was concluded that in the FX rat (1) osteopenia is not caused by intestinal Ca malabsorption,
vitamin D, Ca deficiency, or secondary hyperparathyroidism; (2) osteopenia may be related to PTH-independent urinary hyperexcretion
of P, followed by a rise of serum 1,25(OH)2D; (3) the existence of endocrine axes among gastrin, calcitonin, and PTH cannot be substantiated. FX osteopenia appears to
be related to gastric acid abolition, and the reactive hypergastrinemia probably stabilizes the mass and turnover of bone.

Chondroclasts and Osteoclasts in Bones of Young Rats: Comparison of Ultrastructural and Functional Features 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The aim of the present study was to characterize cells involved in resorption during endochondral bone formation. We investigated
whether the cells involved in cartilage breakdown at the epiphyseal/metaphyseal border, i.e., chondroclasts, share the characteristics
of bone/cartilage-resorbing osteoclasts at the metaphyseal/diaphyseal border regarding ultrastructural features and functional
activity. Morphometric evaluation showed that chondroclasts do not form ruffled borders and clear zones, i.e., well-known
resorption characteristics, to the same extent as osteoclasts, present at the lower metaphysis. Instead, chondroclasts tend
to express an undifferentiated surface adjacent to the matrix, not structurally different from the basolateral plasma membrane.
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) was used as a marker for functional activity. Immunohistochemical staining by light
microscopy was strong in both chondroclasts and in osteoclasts. Furthermore, in situ hybridization revealed large amounts of TRAP mRNA in chondroclasts as well as in osteoclasts. Ultrastructural immunohistochemistry
suggests extensive secretion of the TRAP enzyme in the ruffled border area of both chondroclasts and osteoclasts. Intracellular
accumulation was seen particularly in chondroclasts, possibly as a consequence of a relative disinclination to develop a ruffled
border. Thus, semiquantitative estimation of TRAP distribution showed an inverse relationship between extracellular and intracellular
TRAP in chondroclasts and osteoclasts. These results indicate that chondroclasts and osteoclasts differ, not only with respect
to location but possibly also by mode of action. The observed differences may reflect the maturation sequence of these multinucleated
cells when associated with different metaphyseal trabecular surfaces.

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.

Plasma membranes and matrix vesicles isolated from rat costochondral resting zone chondrocyte cultures contain predominantly
protein kinase C alpha (PKCα) and PKCζ, respectively, and the level of PKC specific activity in these membrane fractions is
regulated by 24,25-(OH)2D3 [14]. In the present study, we examined whether the effect of 24,25-(OH)2D3 on membrane PKC is via genomic mechanisms during biogenesis and through a nongenomic mechanism after the matrix vesicles
are resident in the matrix. There was a dose-dependent decrease in matrix vesicle PKC specific activity and a significant
increase in plasma membrane enzyme activity in cultures treated for 90 minutes with 10−9–10−7 M 24,25-(OH)2D3. However, at 12 hours, matrix vesicle PKC was stimulated, but no effect was seen in the plasma membranes, suggesting that
the effect seen at 90 minutes was due to a direct action of the hormone on PKC activity in the membrane, and that the effect
seen at 12 hours was due to new matrix vesicle production with altered PKC content. Neither actinomycin D nor cycloheximide
inhibited matrix vesicle PKC at 30, 60, or 90 minutes, but by 12 hours, these inhibitors blocked the effect of the hormone.
24,25-(OH)2D3-dependent plasma membrane PKC was sensitive to both actinomycin D and cycloheximide at early time points, but by 12 hours,
no effect of the inhibitors was seen. Monensin did not alter basal plasma membrane PKC activity or the 24,25-(OH)2D3-dependent increase, suggesting that this increase was due to translocation of cytosolic PKC rather than new membrane synthesis.
Monensin did not affect matrix vesicle PKC at early time points, but it decreased 24,25-(OH)2D3-dependent enzyme activity at later times, indicating that new matrix vesicle production was blocked.
At least part of the effect of 24,25-(OH)2D3 on PKC involved phospholipase A2 (PA2). Quinacrine (a PA2 inhibitor) alone had no effect on matrix vesicle PKC, but in cultures treated for 12 hours with quinacrine and 24,25-(OH)2D3, a synergistic increase in matrix vesicle PKC was observed. Quinacrine caused a time-dependent decrease in matrix vesicle
PKC and a dose- and time-dependent increase in plasma membrane PKC when incubated directly with the membranes, supporting
the hypothesis that PA2 plays a role in the nongenomic regulation of PKC by 24,25-(OH)2D3. Experiments using anti-isoform specific antibodies showed that 24,25-(OH)2D3 modulated the distribution of PKCα, β, and ζ between the plasma membrane and matrix vesicle compartments via translocation
and new PKC synthesis. Thus, the data support the hypothesis that 24,25-(OH)2D3 regulates matrix vesicles through two pathways: a genomic one at the stage of biosynthesis and packaging, and a second nongenomic
mechanism acting directly upon matrix vesicles in the matrix. These data also indicate that matrix vesicle regulation consists
of complex events with several different points of regulation.

The cellular and biochemical sequences of osteogenesis induced by implanting demineralized bone matrix (DBM) in rat cranial
defects and in subcutaneous sites have been studied by histological, histochemical, and biochemical techniques from days 2
to 28 after implantation. In subcutaneous sites, allogenic DBM induced cartilage cells and matrix for approximately the first
10 days which were subsequently resorbed and replaced by bone with little evidence for the classical endochondral sequence
of ossification. In sharp contrast, the first cells that differentiated from the mesenchymal stem cells in the cranial defects
were alkaline phosphatase (ALP) positively stained osteoblasts that appeared 3 days after implantation followed by synthesis
of bone matrix which calcified shortly thereafter. A few clusters of cartilage cells were observed beginning at days 6–7 which
were spatially distinct from the new bone and later resorbed. By day 28 the tissue induced in both the subcutaneous and cranial
sites consisted almost solely of bone; however, the total amount of new bone in the subcutaneous implants was significantly
less than the mass of bone formed in the calvarial defects. Bovine DBM induced bone formation in rat cranial defects to a
very much lesser extent than allogenic DBM. A few cartilage cells were induced by bovine DBM in subcutaneous sites and rapidly
resorbed and not replaced with bone. These results clearly indicate that the cellular sequence induced by allogenic and xenogenic
DBM and the repair tissues synthesized are distinctly different in the cranial defects from those induced in the subcutaneous
sites.

Even though indirect evidence indicates that PTH exerts an anabolic effect on dentinogenesis, the existence of PTH receptors
and any second-messenger response in odontoblasts have not been demonstrated. The aim of this study was to investigate whether
rat incisor odontoblasts express PTH receptors, and to identify which second messenger pathway the hormone may activate. Odontoblasts
were dissected from rat incisors. Amino-terminal (1-34) fragment rat PTH [rPTH(1-34)] conjugated to fluorescein isothiocyanate
visualized receptor sites on the cell surface. Upon incubation of odontoblasts with rPTH(1-34), cAMP formation was increased.
However, no fluctuations in intracellular calcium activity were observed upon rPTH(1-34) stimulation when using Fura-2 as
a Ca2+ probe. In long-time incubations, stimulation with PTH(1-34) upregulated APase activity. The results demonstrate that rPTH(1-34)
evokes an anabolic response in dentinogenically active odontoblasts, and that this may be mediated through the protein kinase
A/cAMP pathway, whereas no indications for Ca2+ as a second messenger were evident.

Bone, being sensitive to mechanical stimulus, adapts to mechanical loads in response to bending or deformation. Although
the signal/receptor mechanism for bone adaptation to deformation is still under investigation, the mechanical signal is related
to the amount of bone deformation or strain. Adaptation to changes in physical activity depends on both the magnitude of increase
in strain above average daily levels for maintaining current bone density and the Minimum Effective Strain (MES) for initiating
adaptive bone formation. Given the variation of peak bone density that exists in any human population, it is likely that variation
in levels for MES is, to a considerable degree, inherited and varies among animal species and breeds. This study showed a
dose-related periosteal response to loading in C3H/HeJ mice. The extent of active formation surface, the rate of periosteal
bone formation, and area of bone formation increased with increasing peak periosteal strain. In these mice, the loaded tibia
consistently showed lower endocortical formation surface and mineral apposition rate than the nonloaded bones at every load
level. Although periosteal expansion is the most efficient means of increasing moment of inertia in adaptation to bending,
a dose response increase in endocortical formation would have been predicted. Our characterization of the mouse bone formation
response to increasing bending loads will be useful in the design of experiments to study the tibial adaptive response to
known loads in different mouse breeds.

The C-terminal (107-111) region of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) appears to inhibit osteoclastic bone resorption,
and to affect osteoblastic growth and differentiation. We tested the effect of human PTHrP (107-139) on alkaline phosphatase
(ALP) activity in osteoblastic osteosarcoma UMR 106 cells. We found that this C-terminal PTHrP peptide, between 10 nM and
10 fM, inhibited ALP activity in these cells during the log phase of growth. Human PTHrP (1-34) amide and human PTHrP (1-141)
were as potent as PTHrP (107-139) in growing UMR 106 cells. This inhibitory effect of 10 nM PTHrP (107-139) on ALP activity
was also observed in serum-depleted cells, and in the presence of 10 nM dexamethasone, which increased ALP activity by 40%
in these cells. In addition, this effect of PTHrP (107-139) was blunted by 25 nM bisindolylmaleimide I, a protein kinase C
inhibitor. These results support a role for the C-terminal region of PTHrP as a modulator of bone formation.
