Abstract
The ruffled membrane, the resorptive organelle of the osteoclast, is generated by fusion of intracytoplasmic acidifying vesicles with the plasma membrane, an event analogous to regulated exocytosis. While the ruffled membrane is essential to the bone resorptive process, the mechanisms governing its generation are unknown. However, regulated exocytosis is mediated, in part, by isoforms of the Rab3 subset of Rab GTPases. Because of similarities between exocytosis and ruffled membrane formation, we asked if Rab3 proteins are expressed by osteoclasts or their precursors, and if so, are these molecules regulated by agents known to prompt the osteoclast phenotype? We find murine osteoclast precursors, in the form of bone marrow macrophages (BMMs), express at least two Rab3 isoforms, namely A and B/C, which are individually enhanced by a variety of hematopoietic cytokines. Consistent with the osteoclastogenic properties of a number of these cytokines, differentiation of BMMs into osteoclasts, in vitro, is associated with increased expression of both isoforms, particularly Rab3B/C. Finally, Rab3B/C localizes with the avian osteoclast H+ATPase (vacuolar proton pump) and pp60c-src, both intracellularly and within acidifying vesicles derived largely from the ruffled membrane. Thus, expression of specific rab3 proteins, an event which may control formation of the osteoclast ruffled membrane, is modulated by cytokines during osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
Commitment of members of the monocyte/macrophage family to the bone resorptive phenotype, in vitro, requires contact, of these osteoclast precursors, with osteoblasts or related stromal cells. The osteoclast-inductive properties of these stromal cells are typically expressed, however, only in the presence of steroid hormones such as 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D3) and dexamethasone (DEX). To gain insight into the means by which steroid treated accessory cells induce osteoclast differentiation we asked, using differential RNA display (DRD), if gene expression by this stromal cell population differs from that of their untreated, non-osteoclastogenic counterpart. We identified four known genes specifically expressed by 1,25D3/DEX-treated ST2 stromal cells: 1) a family of rat organic anion transporters, 2) Na/K ATPase ss-subunit, 3) tazarotene-induced gene 2 (TIG2), and 4) prostaglandin G/H synthase I, or cyclooxygenase 1 (Cox-1). The regulation of these genes in 1,25D3/DEX-treated ST2 cells was demonstrated by Northern blot analysis of treated (osteoclast-supporting) and untreated (non-osteoclast-supporting) ST2 cells; the genes have a limited and specific tissue mRNA expression pattern. Northern blot analysis of treated and untreated ST2 cell total RNA using either a DRD-derived Cox-1 cDNA or a Cox-1 specific oligonucleotide confirmed the steroid regulation of Cox-1 mRNA. Surprisingly, there is no detectable expression by untreated or steroid exposed ST2 cells, of Cox-2, the classical regulated cyclooxygenase isoform. In contrast to 1, 25D3/DEX, serum treatment rapidly induces Cox-2 mRNA, substantiating the capacity of ST2 cells to express the gene. These data establish that steroid induction of the osteoclastogenic properties of stromal cells is attended by Cox gene expression, a phenomenon consistent with the capacity of eicosinoids to impact the resorptive process. The response of osteoclast-supporting ST2 cells to 1,25D3/DEX treatment may be one prostaglandin-mediated event which specifically involves Cox-1 regulation.

Abstract
Central to the bone-sparing effect of estrogen (E(2)) is its ability to block the monocytic production of the osteoclastogenic cytokine TNF-alpha (TNF). However, the mechanism by which E(2) downregulates TNF production is presently unknown. Transient transfection studies in HeLa cells, an E(2) receptor-negative line, suggest that E(2) inhibits TNF gene expression through an effect mediated by estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta). We also report that in RAW 264.7 cells, an E(2) receptor-positive murine monocytic line, E(2) downregulates cytokine-induced TNF gene expression by decreasing the activity of the Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK). The resulting diminished phosphorylation of c-Jun and JunD at their NH(2)-termini decreases the ability of these nuclear proteins to autostimulate the expression of the c-Jun and JunD genes, thus leading to lower production of c-Jun and JunD. The consequent decrease in the nuclear levels of c-Jun and JunD leads to diminished binding of c-Jun/c-Fos and JunD/c-Fos heterodimers to the AP-1 consensus sequence in the TNF promoter and, thus, to decreased transactivation of the TNF gene.

Abstract
We previously noted that the initial receptor by which murine osteoclast precursors bind matrix is the integrin alphav beta5 and that granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) decreases expression of this heterodimer by suppressing transcription of the beta5 gene. We herein report cloning of the beta5 integrin gene promoter and identification of a GM-CSF-responsive sequence. A 13-kilobase (kb) genomic fragment containing part of the beta5 gene was isolated by screening a mouse genomic library with a probe derived from the most 5'-end of a murine beta5 cDNA. A combination of primer extension and S1 nuclease studies identifies two transcriptional start sites, with the major one designated +1. A 1-kb subclone containing sequence -875 to + 110 is transcriptionally active in a murine myeloid cell line. This 1-kb fragment contains consensus binding sequences for basal (Sp1), lineage-specific (PU.1), and regulatable (signal transducer and activator of transcription) transcription factors. Reflecting our earlier findings, promoter activity is repressed in transfected myeloid cells treated with GM-CSF. Using deletion mutants, we localized a 109-base pair (bp) promoter region responsible for GM-CSF-inhibited beta5 transcription. We further identified a 19-bp sequence within the 109-bp region that binds GM-CSF-induced nuclear proteins by gel shift/competition assays. Mutation of the 19-bp sequence not only ablates its capacity to bind nuclear proteins from GM-CSF-treated cells, in vitro, but the same mutation, when introduced in the 1-kb promoter, abolishes its ability to respond to GM-CSF treatment. Northern analysis demonstrates that cycloheximide treatment abrogates the capacity of GM-CSF to decrease beta5 mRNA levels. In summary, we have identified a 19-bp cis-element mediating GM-CSF-induced down-regulation of beta5 by a mechanism requiring protein synthesis.

Abstract
Osteoclasts arise by proliferation, differentiation, and subsequent fusion of marrow-derived precursors, all processes requiring attachment to matrix. Integrins are important mediators of cell-matrix recognition and bone is rich in proteins containing the Arg-Gly-Asp motif, recognized primarily by alphav integrins. Thus, we determined if avian osteoclast precursors express integrins capable of mediating initial attachment to matrix proteins. Early, marrow-derived osteoclast precursors, when first isolated, contain no detectable alphavbeta3, but express an alphav integrin with an 80 kDa associated beta subunit. Immunoprecipitation with an antibody raised against the conserved beta5 cytoplasmic tail sequence indicates the the alphav associated the integrin is alphavbeta5. Retinoic acid is a resorptive steroid, and its exposure to early osteoclast precursors prompts a time- and dose-dependent decrease in alphavbeta5 expression, while simultaneously stimulating alphavbeta3 expression. Northern analysis reveals that retinoic acid decreases beta5 steady-state mRNA, nontranscriptionally, without altering that of alphav. The finding alphavbeta5 expression decreases under the influence of retinoic acid, an osteoclastogenic steroid, while those of alphavbeta3 rise, suggests that these closely related integrins play separate and complementary roles during osteoclast differentiation.

Abstract
Osteolysis complicating arthroplasty reflects progressive generation of implant-derived wear particles, which prompt an inflammatory reaction attended by recruitment of osteoclasts to the prosthesis-bone interface. To identify a soluble mediator of periprosthetic osteolysis we first showed that implant particles induce c-src in murine bone marrow macrophages (BMMs), a protein specifically expressed when these cells commit to the osteoclast phenotype. The fact that tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) is a potent osteoclastogenic agent while at the same time is the only soluble moiety known to be c-src inductive suggests that this cytokine may mediate implant particle-induced osteoclastogenesis. Consistent with this hypothesis, prosthesis-derived wear particles, recovered at revision arthroplasty, dose-dependently prompt TNF secretion by BMMs. Similarly, particulate polymemthylmethacrylate, the major component of orthopedic implant cement, induces BMM expression of TNF mRNA and protein in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, failure of BMMs derived from mice deleted of both the p55 and p75 TNF receptors to express c-src in response to polymemthyl-methacrylate indicates TNF is an essential mediator of particle induction of this osteoclast specific protein. To test the hypothesis that TNF mediates implant osteolysis, we established an in vivo murine model of this condition that histologically mirrors that of man. Verifying that TNF is essential to development of particle osteolysis, mice failing to express both the p55 and p75 TNF receptors are protected from the profound bone resorption attending polymemthyl-methacrylate particle implantation on calvariae of wild-type animals. Finally, the protective effect of deletion of both TNF receptors is recapitulated in mice lacking only the p55 receptor. Thus, targeting TNF and/or its p55 receptor may arrest wear particle osteolysis.

Abstract
beta3 integrins have been implicated in a wide variety of functions, including platelet aggregation and thrombosis (alphaIIbbeta3) and implantation, placentation, angiogenesis, bone remodeling, and tumor progression (alphavbeta3). The human bleeding disorder Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) can result from defects in the genes for either the alphaIIb or the beta3 subunit. In order to develop a mouse model of this disease and to further studies of hemostasis, thrombosis, and other suggested roles of beta3 integrins, we have generated a strain of beta3-null mice. The mice are viable and fertile, and show all the cardinal features of GT (defects in platelet aggregation and clot retraction, prolonged bleeding times, and cutaneous and gastrointestinal bleeding). Implantation appears to be unaffected, but placental defects do occur and lead to fetal mortality. Postnatal hemorrhage leads to anemia and reduced survival. These mice will allow analyses of the other suggested functions of beta3 integrins and we report that postnatal neovascularization of the retina appears to be beta3-integrin-independent, contrary to expectations from inhibition experiments.

Abstract
The integrins alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta3 are expressed reciprocally during murine osteoclastogenesis in vitro. Specifically, immature osteoclast precursors, in the form of bone marrow macrophages, contain exclusively alphavbeta5, surface expression of which declines with commitment to the osteoclast phenotype, while levels of alphavbeta3 increase concomitantly. The distinct functional significance of alphavbeta5 is underscored by the integrin's capacity, unlike alphavbeta3, to mediate both attachment and spreading on ligand, of marrow macrophages, suggesting alphavbeta3 negotiates initial recognition, by osteoclast precursors, of bone matrix. Northern analysis demonstrates changes in the two beta-subunits, and not alphav, are responsible for these alterations. Treatment of early precursors with granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) leads to alterations in beta3 and beta5 mRNA and alphavbeta5 and alphavbeta3, paralleling those occurring during osteoclastogenesis. Nuclear run-on and message stability studies demonstrate that while GM-CSF treatment of precursors alters beta5 transcriptionally, the changes in beta3 arise from prolonged mRNA t1/2. Similar to GM-CSF treatment, the rate of beta5 transcription falls during authentic osteoclastogenesis. In contrast to cytokine-induced alphavbeta3, however, that attending osteoclastogenesis reflects accelerated transcription of the beta3-subunit. Thus, while GM-CSF may participate in modulation of alphavbeta5 during osteoclast differentiation, signals other than those derived from the cytokine must regulate expression of alphavbeta3.

Abstract
Central to the pathogenesis of osteoporosis is the ability of estrogen deficiency to increase osteoclast formation by enhancing stromal cell production of the osteoclastogenic cytokine macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). We report that stromal cells from ovariectomized mice exhibit increased casein kinase II-dependent phosphorylation of the nuclear protein Egr-1. Phosphorylated Egr-1 binds less avidly to the transcriptional activator Sp-1 and the resulting higher levels of free Sp-1 stimulate transactivation of the M-CSF gene. Estrogen replacement fails to block M-CSF mRNA expression and osteoclast formation in ovariectomized mice lacking Egr-1, confirming the critical role played by this transcription factor in mediating the antiosteoclastogenic effects of estrogen. Thus, by downregulating formation of a novel Egr-1/Sp-1 complex in stromal cells, estrogen deficiency results in enhanced levels of free Sp-1 and increased M-CSF gene expression and osteoclast formation.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) exerts its transcriptional effects via activation of nuclear transcription factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB). NF-kappaB is sequestered in the cytosol by Ikappa Balpha and, in most cells, released upon serine phosphorylation of this inhibitory protein which then undergoes rapid, ubiquitin-dependent degradation. In contrast, we find TNF induction of NF-kappaB in murine bone marrow macrophages (BMMs), is mediated, by c-Src, in a cell, and cytokine specific manner. The non-receptor tyrosine kinase is rapidly mobilized and activated upon TNF exposure. Within the same time frame, TNF induced c-Src associates with Ikappa Balpha in a long lived complex. The proto-oncogene, when associated with Ikappa Balpha phosphorylates the inhibitory protein on tyrosine 42. Consistent with the pivotal role played by c-Src in TNF-induced Ikappa Balpha tyrosine phosphorylation, NF-kappaB activation, by the cytokine, is markedly delayed and reduced in c-src-/- BMMs. Underscoring the physiological significance of c-Src activation of NF-kappaB, TNF induction of IL-6, which is an NF-kappaB mediated event, is substantially diminished in c-src-/- BMMs.

Abstract
The beta2 integrins and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) are important for monocyte migration through inflammatory endothelium. Here we demonstrate that the integrin alphavbeta3 is also a key player in this process. In an in vitro transendothelial migration assay, monocytes lacking beta3 integrins revealed weak migratory ability, whereas monocytes expressing beta3 integrins engaged in stronger migration. This migration could be partially blocked by antibodies against the integrin chains alphaL, beta2, alphav, or IAP, a protein functionally associated with alphavbeta3 integrin. Transfection of beta3 integrin chain cDNA into monocytes lacking beta3 integrins resulted in expression of the alphavbeta3 integrin and conferred on these cells an enhanced ability to transmigrate through cell monolayers expressing ICAM-1. These monocytes also engaged in alphaLbeta2-dependent locomotion on recombinant ICAM-1 which was enhanced by alphavbeta3 integrin occupancy. Antibodies against IAP were able to revert this alphavbeta3 integrin-dependent cell locomotion to control levels. Finally, adhesion assays revealed that occupancy of alphavbeta3 integrin could decrease monocyte binding to ICAM-1. In conclusion, we show that alphavbeta3 integrin modulates alphaLbeta2 integrin-dependent monocyte adhesion to and migration on ICAM-1. This could represent a novel mechanism to promote monocyte motility on vascular ICAM-1 and initiate subsequent transendothelial migration.

Abstract
The nonreceptor tyrosine kinase, c-src, and the steroid hormone,1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3(1,25(OH)2D3), are essential to development of the osteoclast phenotype. On the other hand, functional relationships between the activities of c-src and 1,25(OH)2D3 are as yet unknown. To determine if 1,25(OH)2D3 modulates c-src in osteoclastogenesis, we tested the steroid's effect on avian marrow-derived osteoclast precursors. We find c-src mRNA and immunoprecipitable c-src protein (pp60c-src) unaltered by 72 h exposure of these cells to 1,25(OH)2D3 (10(-11) to 10(-9) M). Despite no quantitative change in pp60c-src, in vitro kinase assay of the immune complex reveals 1,25(OH)2D3 dose-dependently accelerates the catalytic activity of pp60c-src, enhancing its autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of exogenous substrate. This observation represents the first documentation, in nontransformed cells, of humoral induction of pp60c-src kinase. Consistent with the fact pp60c-src is activated by dephosphorylation of tyrosine 527 (Y527), the phosphotyrosine content of the pp60c-src immunoprecipitate, measured by immunoblot, is decreased by 1,25(OH)2D3. Alternatively, mRNA and protein levels of c-src kinase (CSK), which inactivates pp60c-src by phosphorylating Y527, are not altered by the steroid. In contrast, 1,25(OH)2D3 enhances mRNA and especially protein levels of avian protein tyrosine phosphatase lambda (PTP lambda), an enzyme specifically activating pp60c-src by dephosphorylating Y527 [Fang et al. (1994): J Biol Chem 269:20194-20200]. Thus, treatment of avian osteoclast precursors with 1,25(OH)2D3 accelerates the catalytic activity of pp60c-src independent of protein expression. Activation of the kinase may occur via the Y527 dephosphorylating enzyme PTP, expression of which, we show for the first time, is regulated.

Abstract
Chronic bone infection, as attends periodontitis, is often complicated by severe osteolysis. While LPS is believed to be central to the pathogenesis of the osteolytic lesion, the mechanisms by which this bacteria-derived molecule promotes bone resorption are unknown. We find that LPS induces bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) to express c-src, a protooncogene product that we demonstrate is a specific marker of commitment to the osteoclast phenotype. We next turned to possible soluble mediators of LPS-induced c-src. Of a number of osteoclastogenic cytokines tested, only TNF-alpha mirrors the c-src-enhancing effect of LPS. Suggesting that LPS augmentation of c-src is TNF-mediated, endotoxin sequentially induces BMM expression of TNF, followed by c-src. TNF and c-src expression, by cultured BMMs derived from LPS-injected mice, reflects duration of exposure to circulating endotoxin, intimating that endotoxin's effect in vivo is also mediated by TNF. Consistent with these findings, thalidomide (which antagonizes TNF action) attenuates c-src induction by LPS. An anti-TNF antibody blocks LPS enhancement of c-src mRNA, validating the cytokine's modulating role in vitro. Using BMMs of TNF receptor-deleted mice, we demonstrate that TNF induction of c-src is transmitted through the cytokine's p55, but not p75, receptor. Most importantly, LPS administered to wild-type mice prompts osteoclast precursor differentiation, manifest by profound osteoclastogenesis in marrow cultured ex vivo, and by a profusion of marrow-residing cells expressing the osteoclast marker tartrate resistant acid phosphatase, in vivo. In contrast, LPS does not substantially enhance osteoclast proliferation in mice lacking the p55TNF receptor, confirming that LPS-induced osteoclastogenesis is mediated by TNF in vivo via this receptor. Thus, therapy targeting TNF and/or its p55 receptor presents itself as a means of preventing the osteolysis of chronic bacterial infection.

Abstract
Osteoclastic bone degradation requires intimacy between the matrix and the resorptive cell. While the precise role the integrin alpha(v)beta3 plays in the process is not yet understood, occupancy of the heterodimer by soluble ligand or by blocking antibody effectively inhibits bone resorption in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that alpha(v)beta3 blockade may prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis. Thus, we identified a synthetic chemical peptide mimetic, beta-[2-[[5-[(aminoiminomethyl)amino]-1-oxopentyl]amino]-1-+ ++oxoethyl]amino-3-pyridinepropanoic acid, bistrifluoroacetate (SC56631) based upon the alpha(v)beta3 ligand, Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD), which recognizes the isolated integrin, and its relative, alpha(v)beta5, as effectively as does the natural peptide. The mimetic dampens osteoclastic bone resorption in vitro and in vivo. Most importantly, intravenous administration of the mimetic prevents the 55% loss of trabecular bone sustained by rats within 6 wk of oophorectomy. Histological examination of bones taken from SC56631-treated, oophorectomized animals also demonstrates the compound's bone sparing properties and its capacity to decrease osteoclast number. Thus, an RGD mimetic prevents the rapid bone loss that accompanies estrogen withdrawal.

Abstract
The osteoclast is distinguished from other macrophage polykaryons by its polarization, a feature induced by substrate recognition. The most striking component of the polarized osteoclast is its ruffled membrane, probably reflecting insertion of intracellular vesicles into the bone apposed plasmalemma. The failure of osteoclasts in c-src-/- osteopetrotic mice to form ruffled membranes indicates pp60(c-src) (c-src) is essential to osteoclast polarization. Interestingly, c-src itself is a vesicular protein that targets the ruffled membrane. This being the case, we hypothesized that matrix recognition by osteoclasts, and their precursors, induces c-src to associate with microtubules that traffic proteins to the cell surface. We find abundant c-src associates with tubulin immunoprecipitated from avian marrow macrophages (osteoclast precursors) maintained in the adherent, but not nonadherent, state. Since the two proteins colocalize only within adherent avian osteoclast-like cells examined by double antibody immunoconfocal microscopy, c-src/tubulin association reflects an authentic intracellular event. C-src/tubulin association is evident within 90 min of cell-substrate recognition, and the event does not reflect increased expression of either protein. In vitro kinase assay demonstrates tubulin-associated c-src is enzymatically active, phosphorylating itself as well as exogenous substrate. The increase in microtubule-associated kinase activity attending adhesion mirrors tubulin-bound c-src and does not reflect enhanced specific activity. The fact that microtubule-dissociating drugs, as well as cold, prevent adherence-induced c-src/tubulin association indicates the protooncogene complexes primarily, if not exclusively, with polymerized tubulin. Association of the two proteins does not depend upon protein tyrosine phosphorylation and is substrate specific, as it is induced by vitronectin and fibronectin but not type 1 collagen. Finally, consistent with cotransport of c-src and the osteoclast vacuolar proton pump to the polarized plasmalemma, the H+-ATPase decorates microtubules in a manner similar to the protooncogene, specifically coimmunoprecipitates with c-src from the osteoclast light Golgi membrane fraction, and is present, with c-src, in preparations enriched with acidifying vesicles reconstituted from the osteoclast ruffled membrane.

Abstract
The osteoclast is a physiological polykaryon and the major if not exclusive resorptive cell of bone. It participates in bone remodeling, repair, and growth and mobilization of mineral to meet homeostatic demands. Most importantly, osteoporosis, a disease endemic in Western society and Asia, is always a reflection of enhanced osteoclastic activity relative to bone formation by osteoblasts. In fact, all forms of anti-osteoporosis therapy proven successful involve inhibition of osteoclastic bone resorption. Bone resorption is regulated either by altering recruitment of osteoclast precursors into fully differentiated resorptive polykaryons or modulating the rate at which mature osteoclasts degrade bone. With this in mind, our laboratory has focused on the molecular mechanisms of osteoclast differentiation and the means by which the cell degrades bone matrix.

Abstract
To analyze how estrogen blocks osteoclastogenesis, we investigated the effects of ovariectomy on osteoclast (OC) formation in co-cultures of purified OC precursors and purified stromal cells (SC). OC formation was higher in co-cultures containing SC from ovariectomized mice than in those containing SC from sham-operated mice, thus suggesting that estrogen regulates osteoclastogenesis by targeting SC. Ovariectomy also increased the mononuclear cell secretion of interleukin (IL)-1) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and the SC production of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (MCSF). Osteoclastogenesis and SC production of M-CSF were not blocked by in vitro estrogen treatment but were decreased by in vivo treatment of donor mice with either estrogen or a combination of the IL-1 inhibitor, IL-1 receptor antagonist, and the TNF inhibitor, TNF binding protein. IL-1 and TNF production were also blocked by in vivo estrogen treatment, demonstrating that the increased bone marrow levels of IL-1 and TNF characteristic of ovariectomized mice induce the formation of a SC population characterized by a high production of M-CSF and increased pro-osteoclastogenic activity. Since in co-cultures of SC and OC precursors M-CSF levels correlated with OC production (r = 0.7, p < 0.0001), the data also indicate that the pro-osteoclastogenic activity of SC is proportional to their secretion of M-CSF. The ability of estrogen to decrease SC production of M-CSF and the pro-osteoclastogenic activity of these cells by regulating IL-1 and TNF production is a previously undescribed mechanism by which estrogen down-regulates osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
The capacity of osteoclasts to resorb bone depends, in part, on the surface expression of the integrin alpha v beta 3. We have investigated whether the steroid hormone retinoic acid, known to stimulate bone resorption, regulates the appearance of the alpha v beta 3 complex in avian osteoclast presursors. Using surface labeling, followed by immunoprecipitation with a alpha v beta 3-specific antibody, we show that retinoic acid increases surface expression of the heterodimer in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Northern analysis reveals that the high basal steady-state levels of alpha v mRNA do not change, while those for beta 3 rise significantly from their initially low levels. Nuclear run-on studies confirm that steroid treatment stimulates transcription of the beta 3, but not the alpha v gene. Osteoclast precursors treated with retinoic acid exhibit increased multinucleation and expression of the osteoclast marker enzyme tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase. However, the fused cells do not have an increased capacity to resorb bone. In summary, multinucleated cells generated in this study do not represent fully differentiated bone-resorbing polykaryons. These results suggest that treatment of osteoclast precursors with retinoic acid is necessary, but insufficient, for expression of the mature osteoclast phenotype.

Abstract
We have identified a novel steroid hormone response element in the avian beta3 integrin promoter. This sequence, comprising three hexameric direct repeat half-sites separated by nine and three nucleotides binds vitamin D receptor (VDR)-retinoid X receptor (RXR) and retinoic acid receptor (RAR)-RXR heterodimers. VDR-RXR binds direct repeats separated by three base pairs, and RAR-RXR recognizes half-sites separated by nine bases, whereas the central half-site interacts with both heterodimers. Retinoic acid and 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 activate both a genomic fragment including the transcriptional start site and an oligonucleotide containing the three repeats, linked to a heterologous promoter. Co-addition of the steroids produces neither synergy nor an additive effect; rather the result equals that for retinoic acid alone. Scatchard analysis demonstrates that RAR-RXR has greater affinity than VDR-RXR for the composite element. Based on these findings we propose a model in which there is specific, polarity-defined binding of VDR-RXR and RAR-RXR to three half-sites, which form two overlapping steroid response elements, with the central half-site common to both. Our results identify a novel mechanism by which one steroid hormone can modulate the activity of a second, by competing for a shared half-site in a composite response element.

Abstract
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3)transactivates the avian beta 3 integrin gene whose promoter contains at least two vitamin D response elements, one of which is in close proximity to a candidate AP1 site (TGACTCA). Since fos/jun and steroid hormones interact to regulate gene expression, we asked whether phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), which stimulates binding of fos/jun to AP1 sites, transactivates the avian beta 3 integrin gene and, if so, does the phorbol ester modulate 1,25(OH)2D3 induction of the gene. We find the candidate AP1 sequence comigrates with the consensus AP1 sequence on electromobility shift assay when incubated with recombinant c-jun protein. Furthermore, PMA prompts expression of beta 3 integrin mRNA in the avian monocytic line, HD11. The increase in message reflects transactivation of the beta 3 gene and is mirrored by plasma membrane appearance of the integrin heterodimer alpha v beta 3. Moreover, attesting to the functional significance of PMA-enhanced alpha v beta 3 expression, cells treated with concentrations of the phorbol ester that induce the beta 3 gene, spread extensively on plastic, an event blocked by an anti-alpha v antibody and a peptide mimetic known to inhibit alpha v beta 3-mediated cell attachment. Interestingly, co-addition of 1,25(OH)2D3 and PMA prompts greater expression of alpha v beta 3 than when the cells are exposed to either agent alone and PMA enhances 1,25(OH)2D3-induced beta 3 integrin mRNA expression. Thus, PMA and 1,25(OH)2D3 impact on the avian beta 3 integrin gene independently and in combination.

Abstract
Osteoclasts attach to the bone surface and resorb bone by secreting protons into an isolated subosteoclastic compartment. Previous studies have shown the presence of a vacuolar type H+-ATPase, and a functional Cl--HCO3- anion exchanger in the osteoclast. In the present studies, using a monoclonal antibody to the 31-kDa subunit of H+-ATPase and a rabbit antiserum to the erythrocyte band-3 protein (Cl--HCO3- anion exchanger) we have immunocytochemically localized the respective pumps in bone sections obtained from chickens fed a normal or a calcium-deficient diet for 4 weeks. Our results indicate that although H+-ATPase is either evenly distributed throughout the osteoclast or is more polarized at its ruffled membrane juxtaposed to the bone surface, the band-3 protein immunoreactivity is always localized to the plasma membrane which is not attached to the bone surface (basolateral membrane). Four weeks of a calcium-deficient diet resulted in a significant increase in the percentage of osteoclasts that were polarized for the H+-ATPase pump at their ruffled membrane, and a trend toward increased total number of osteoclasts, although the latter did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.09). These changes were not accompanied by a significant increase in the intensity of staining for H+-ATPase. Band-3 protein immunoreactivity was always prominent, limited to the basolateral membrane, and did not alter with calcium-deficient diet or with changes in the degree of H+-ATPase polarization.
