Abstract:
:Recombinant human OP-1 stimulated the formation of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive multinucleated cells (MNCs) significantly and in a dose-dependent manner in rat bone marrow cell culture. Newly formed MNCs either induced by hOP-1 alone or with 1,25(OH)2D3 were also positive for vitronectin receptor and carbonic anhydrase II. Moreover, OP-1 markedly increased the capacity of 1,25(OH)2D3 to induce osteoclast-like cell formation and bone resorption in bone marrow cultures. 25 pg/ml of calcitonin significantly inhibited both OP-1- and vitamin D3-induced TRAP-positive MNC-formation in marrow cultures, indicating that in both cases the MNC formation was calcitonin sensitive. OP-1 at 5-100 ng/ml did not have any significant effect on bone resorption as studied by pit formation assay. These studies that OP-1 in concert with 1,25(OH)2D3 could have an important role in bone remodeling by exhibiting its effects not only on osteoblast growth and differentiation but also on the recruitment of osteoclasts.
