Regulation of Proliferation, Differentiation and Functions of Osteoblasts by Runx2.

Abstract:

:Runx2 is essential for osteoblast differentiation and chondrocyte maturation. During osteoblast differentiation, Runx2 is weakly expressed in uncommitted mesenchymal cells, and its expression is upregulated in preosteoblasts, reaches the maximal level in immature osteoblasts, and is down-regulated in mature osteoblasts. Runx2 enhances the proliferation of osteoblast progenitors by directly regulating Fgfr2 and Fgfr3. Runx2 enhances the proliferation of suture mesenchymal cells and induces their commitment into osteoblast lineage cells through the direct regulation of hedgehog (Ihh, Gli1, and Ptch1), Fgf (Fgfr2 and Fgfr3), Wnt (Tcf7, Wnt10b, and Wnt1), and Pthlh (Pthr1) signaling pathway genes, and Dlx5. Runx2 heterozygous mutation causes open fontanelle and sutures because more than half of the Runx2 gene dosage is required for the induction of these genes in suture mesenchymal cells. Runx2 regulates the proliferation of osteoblast progenitors and their differentiation into osteoblasts via reciprocal regulation with hedgehog, Fgf, Wnt, and Pthlh signaling molecules, and transcription factors, including Dlx5 and Sp7. Runx2 induces the expression of major bone matrix protein genes, including Col1a1, Spp1, Ibsp, Bglap2, and Fn1, in vitro. However, the functions of Runx2 in differentiated osteoblasts in the expression of these genes in vivo require further investigation.
