Abstract
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are cytokines belonging to the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily. They play multiple functions during development and tissue homeostasis, including regulation of the bone homeostasis. The BMP signaling pathway consists in a well-orchestrated manner of ligands, membrane receptors, co-receptors and intracellular mediators, that regulate the expression of genes controlling the normal functioning of the bone tissues. Interestingly, BMP signaling perturbation is associated to a variety of low and high bone mass diseases, including osteoporosis, bone fracture disorders and heterotopic ossification. Consistent with these findings, in vitro and in vivo studies have shown that BMPs have potent effects on the activity of cells regulating bone function, suggesting that manipulation of the BMP signaling pathway may be employed as a therapeutic approach to treat bone diseases. Here we review the recent advances on BMP signaling and bone homeostasis, and how this knowledge may be used towards improved diagnosis and development of novel treatment modalities. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Muscle Bone Interactions".

Abstract
In the current study, we determined the effects of IGF-1 receptor haploinsufficiency on osteoblast differentiation and bone formation throughout the lifespan. Bone mineral density was significantly decreased in femurs of male and female Igf1r(+/-) mice compared with wild-type mice. mRNA expression of osteoblast differentiation markers was significantly decreased in femurs and calvariae from Igf1r(+/-) mice compared with cells from wild-type mice. Bone morphogenetic protein-7-induced ectopic bone in Igf1r(+/-) mice was significantly smaller with fewer osteoblasts but more lipid droplets and had reduced expression of osteoblast differentiation markers compared with wild-type mice. In bone marrow cells from middle-aged and old wild-type and Igf1r(+/-) male mice, palmitate inhibited osteoblast markers expression. In cells from young wild-type male mice, palmitate did not inhibit marker expression, but in cells from young male Igf1r(+/-) mice, palmitate inhibited bone sialoprotein and osterix but not osteocalcin or type I collagen (TIC). In female wild-type mice, palmitate inhibited osteoblast markers expression in cells from young, middle-aged, and old mice except TIC in cells from middle-aged mice. Palmitate inhibited bone sialoprotein expression in cells from middle-aged and old female Igf1r(+/-) mice and osteocalcin, osterix, and TIC expression in young and middle-aged female Igf1r(+/-) mice but stimulated expression in cells from old female Igf1r(+/-) mice. We conclude that IGF-1 receptor haploinsufficiency results in a prolipid accrual phenotype in bone in association with inhibition of growth factor-induced osteoblast differentiation, a situation which may phenocopy age-related decreases in bone formation.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein-5 (IGFBP5), an important member of the IGF axis involved in regulating cell growth and differentiation, acts by modulating IGF signaling and also by IGF-independent mechanisms. We identified IGFBP5 by microarray analysis as a gene differentially regulated during N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide (4HPR)-induced neuronal differentiation of human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. IGFBP5 is expressed in human RPE cells, and its expression, mRNA as well as protein, is greatly decreased during the 4HPR-induced neuronal differentiation. Exogenous IGFBP5 does not block the neuronal differentiation indicating that IGFBP5 down-regulation may not be a prerequisite for the neuronal differentiation. IGFBP5 down-regulation, similar to neuronal differentiation, is mediated by the MAPK pathway since U0126, an inhibitor of MEK1/2, effectively blocked it. The overexpression of transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer binding protein-beta (C/EBPbeta) inhibited the 4HPR-induced down-regulation of IGFBP5 expression and the neuronal differentiation of RPE cells. Interestingly, the binding of C/EBPbeta to the IGFBP5 promoter was decreased by the 4HPR treatment as indicated by gel shift and chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses. Further, the deletion of C/EBP response element from IGFBP5 promoter markedly decreased the basal promoter activity and abolished its responsiveness to 4HPR treatment in reporter assays, suggesting that the expression of IGFBP5 is regulated by C/EBP. Thus, our results clearly demonstrate that the IGFBP5 expression is down-regulated during 4HPR-induced neuronal differentiation of human RPE cells through a MAPK signal transduction pathway involving C/EBPbeta.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor axis, which has been shown to protect cells from apoptosis, plays an essential role in normal cell physiology and in cancer development. The family of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) has been shown to have a diverse spectrum of functions in cell growth, death, motility, and tissue remodeling. Among the six IGFBP family members, IGFBP-5 has recently been shown to play an important role in the biology of breast cancer, especially in breast cancer metastasis; however, the exact mechanisms of action remain obscure and sometimes paradoxical. An in-depth understanding of IGFBP-5 would shed light on its potential role as a target for breast cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Growth factor therapy may be useful for stimulation of cartilage matrix synthesis and repair. Thus, the purpose of our study was to further understand the effect of combined insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and osteogenic protein-1 (OP-1) treatment on the matrix synthesized by human adult normal and osteoarthritic (OA) chondrocytes. DESIGN Chondrocytes were isolated post-mortem from articular cartilage from tali of normal human donors and femoral condyles of OA patients undergoing knee replacement surgery. Cells were cultured in alginate beads for 21 days in four experimental groups: (1) "mini-ITS" control; (2) 100 ng/ml IGF-1; (3) 100 ng/ml OP-1; (4) IGF-1+OP-1, each at 100 ng/ml. Beads were processed for histological (Safranin O and fast green), morphometrical and immunohistochemical (aggrecan, decorin, type I, II, VI, and X collagens, and fibronectin accumulation) analyses. RESULTS Histology showed that IGF-1 alone did not induce substantial matrix production. OP-1 alone caused a considerable matrix formation, but the highest matrix accumulation by normal and OA chondrocytes was found when OP-1 and IGF-1 were added together. Morphometrical analysis indicated larger matrices produced by OA chondrocytes than by normal cells under the combined treatment. All tested matrix proteins were more abundant in the combination group. Type X collagen was detected only under the combined OP-1 and IGF-1 treatment and was present at very low levels. Type I collagen was found only in OA chondrocytes. CONCLUSIONS The results obtained in the current study suggest that combined therapy with IGF-1 and OP-1 may have a greater potential in treating cartilage defects seen in OA than use of either growth factor alone.

Abstract
The six members of the insulin-like growth factor-binding protein family (IGFBP-1-6) are important components of the IGF (insulin-like growth factor) axis. In this capacity, they serve to regulate the activity of both IGF-I and -II polypeptide growth factors. The IGFBPs are able to enhance or inhibit the activity of IGFs in a cell- and tissue-specific manner. One of these proteins, IGFBP-5, also has an important role in controlling cell survival, differentiation and apoptosis. In this review, we report on the structural and functional features of the protein which are important for these effects. We also examine the regulation of IGFBP-5 expression and comment on its potential role in tumour biology, with special reference to work with breast cancer cells.

Abstract
The roles of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) in regulating growth and their modulation by six IGF binding proteins (IGFBP) are well established. IGFBP-5, the most abundant IGFBP stored in bone, is an important regulator of bone formation via IGF-dependent and -independent mechanisms. Two new proteins, four and a half lim (FHL)-2, a transcription modulator that interacts with IGFBP-5, and a disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM)-9, an IGFBP-5 protease, have been identified as potential regulators of IGFBP-5 action in bone. We tested the hypothesis that agents which modulate bone formation by regulating IGFBP-5 expression would also regulate FHL-2 and ADAM-9 expression in a coordinated manner. We evaluated the expression of IGFBP-5, FHL-2, and ADAM-9 by real-time reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR during differentiation of mouse bone marrow stromal cells into osteoblasts and in response to treatment with bone formation modulators in the LSaOS human osteosarcoma cell line. IGFBP-5 and FHL-2 increased 4.3- and 3.0-fold (P < or = 0.01), respectively, during osteoblast differentiation. Dexamethasone (Dex), an inhibitor of bone formation, decreased IGFBP-5 and FHL-2 and increased ADAM-9 in LSaOS cells (P < or = 0.05). Bone morphogenic protein (BMP)-7, a stimulator of bone formation, increased IGFBP-5 and decreased ADAM-9 (P<0.01). To determine if BMP-7 would eliminate Dex inhibition of IGFBP-5, cells were treated with Dex+BMP-7. The BMP-7-induced increase in IGFBP-5 was reduced, but not eliminated, in the presence of Dex (P < or = 0.01), indicating that BMP-7 and Dex may regulate IGFBP-5 via different mechanisms. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta, a stimulator of bone formation, increased IGFBP-5 and FHL-2 expression (P < or = 0.01). IGF-I and TNF-alpha decreased expression of ADAM-9 (P<0.05). In conclusion, our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that FHL-2 and ADAM-9 are important modulators of IGFBP-5 actions and are, in part, regulated in a coordinated manner in bone.

Abstract
The prospect of predictable and reliable oseteogenesis without the need for secondary bone grafting to treat a wide spectrum of spinal disorders is tremendously appealing. Recombinant human bone morphogenic proteins (rhBMP) have been the subject of extensive basic science, animal, and clinical research as a potential therapeutic modality to promote bony fusion. Animal studies and prospective, randomized clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of rhBMPs as an adjunct or substitute to autogenous bone graft in the specific treatment of certain spinal conditions. The future role of rhBMPs in spinal surgery applications remains to be determined and will be dependent upon future investigations evaluating 1) the efficacy in a variety of spinal conditions and environments, 2) the optimal dose and delivery system, 3) the long-term safety profile (immunogenicity, antibody formation), and 4) the cost effectiveness of these therapeutic growth factors.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase-13 (collagenase-3), a member of the family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), plays a major pathological role in the cartilage destruction of arthritis. A dramatic up-regulation of MMP-13 by inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1beta or by fibronectin fragments has been observed in chondrocytes. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory effects of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and osteogenic protein-1 (OP-1) on the expression of MMP-13, which was induced by fibronectin fragment or IL-1beta in human immortalized or human primary chondrocytes. IGF-1 and OP-1 each significantly reduced the basal level as well as fibronectin fragment- or IL-1beta-stimulated transcription of the MMP-13 gene in a dose-dependent fashion with the corresponding decreases in the protein level of MMP-13. The most prominent suppressive effect was observed by the combination of IGF-1 and OP-1, which decreased the basal promoter activity by 60% and almost completely abrogated the fibronectin fragment-stimulated MMP-13 promoter activity. OP-1 was found to enhance mRNA levels of IGF-1 and the IGF-1 receptor, the latter of which appeared to be responsible for the combined effect of IGF-1 and OP-1. The suppressive effect of IGF-1 and OP-1 on MMP-13 expression was due in part to down-regulation of the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the activity of their intermediate molecules, including NF-kappaB and AP-1 factors. We propose that IGF-1 and OP-1 could be key physiological regulators of MMP-13 gene expression and that the combination of IGF-1 and OP-1 may be useful in controlling the excess catabolic activity in arthritis.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The genomic response to BMP was investigated by ectopic expression of activated BMP type I receptors in C2C12 myoblast using cDNA microarrays. Novel BMP receptor target genes with possible roles in inhibition of myoblast differentiation and stimulation of osteoblast differentiation were identified. INTRODUCTION Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have an important role in controlling mesenchymal cell fate and mediate these effects by regulating gene expression. BMPs signal through three distinct specific BMP type I receptors (also termed activin receptor-like kinases) and their downstream nuclear effectors, termed Smads. The critical target genes by which activated BMP receptors mediate change cell fate are poorly characterized. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed transcriptional profiling of C2C12 myoblasts differentiation into osteoblast-like cells by ectopic expression of three distinct constitutively active (ca)BMP type I receptors using adenoviral gene transfer. Cells were harvested 48 h after infection, which allowed detection of both early and late response genes. Expression analysis was performed using the mouse GEM1 microarray, which is comprised of approximately 8700 unique sequences. Hybridizations were performed in duplicate with a reverse fluor labeling. Genes were considered to be significantly regulated if the p value for differential expression was less than 0.01 and inverted expression ratios per duplicate successful reciprocal hybridizations differed by less than 25%. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Each of the three caBMP type I receptors stimulated equal levels of R-Smad phosphorylation and alkaline phosphatase activity, an early marker for osteoblast differentiation. Interestingly, all three type I receptors induced identical transcriptional profiles; 97 genes were significantly upregulated and 103 genes were downregulated. Many extracellular matrix genes were upregulated, muscle-related genes downregulated, and transcription factors/signaling components modulated. In addition to 41 expressed sequence tags without known function and a number of known BMP target genes, including PPAR-gamma and fibromodulin, a large number of novel BMP target genes with an annotated function were identified, including transcription factors HesR1, ITF-2, and ICSBP, apoptosis mediators DRP-1 death kinase and ZIP kinase, IkappaB alpha, Edg-2, ZO-1, and E3 ligase Dactylin. These target genes, some of them unexpected, offer new insights into how BMPs elicit biological effects, in particular into the mechanism of inhibition of myoblast differentiation and stimulation of osteoblast differentiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND LIM mineralization protein-1 (LMP-1), an intracellular protein, is thought to induce secretion of soluble factors that convey its osteoinductive activity. Although evidence suggests that LMP-1 may be a critical regulator of osteoblast differentiation in vitro and in vivo, little is known about its mechanism of action. The purpose of the present study was to identify candidates for the induced secreted factors and to describe the time sequence of histological changes during bone formation induced by LMP-1. METHODS Human lung carcinoma (A549) cells were used to determine if LMP-1 overexpression would induce expression of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) in vitro. Cultured A549 cells were infected with recombinant replication-deficient human type-5 adenovirus containing the LMP-1 or LacZ cDNA. Cells were subjected to immunohistochemical analysis after forty-eight hours. Finally, sixteen athymic rats received subcutaneous implants consisting of collagen disks loaded with human buffy-coat cells that were infected with one of the above two viruses. Rats were killed at intervals, and explants were studied with histological and immunohistochemical analyses. RESULTS In vitro experiments with A549 cells showed that AdLMP-1-infected cells express elevated levels of BMP-2, BMP-4, BMP-6, BMP-7, and TGF-beta1 (transforming growth factor-beta 1) protein. Human buffy-coat cells infected with AdLMP-1 also demonstrated increased levels of BMP-4 and BMP-7 protein seventy-two hours after ectopic implantation in athymic rats, confirming the in vitro hypothesis. CONCLUSIONS The osteoinductive properties of LMP-1 involve synthesis of several BMPs and the recruitment of host cells that differentiate and participate in direct membranous bone formation.

Abstract
Published studies reveal that Osteogenic Protein-1 (OP-1) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) synergistically stimulate alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity and bone nodule formation in fetal rat calvaria (FRC) cells. In the present study, we examined whether there are interactions between the signal transduction pathways activated by these two growth factors. OP-1 did not significantly affect the levels of IRS-1, IRS-2, the p85alpha subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) or the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-2, but stimulated ERK-1 protein by twofold. OP-1 also induced phosphorylation of ERK-1 and -2, but not of Akt/protein kinase B (PKB), a protein kinase that is downstream of PI 3-kinase. By comparison, IGF-I increased the levels of the phosphorylated forms of ERK-1 and -2, and Akt/PKB. Inhibition of ERK activation by PD98059 did not significantly alter the stimulation of AP activity by OP-1 or OP-1 in combination with IGF-I. In contrast, inhibition of PI 3-kinase activity by LY294002 blocked the induction of AP activity by OP-1 and OP-1 plus IGF-I. Treatment of cells with rapamycin, an inhibitor of the mammalian target of mTOR, resulted in a 47% and a 53% decrease in the AP activity induced by OP-1 alone and by OP-1 plus IGF-I, respectively. These studies suggest that PI 3-kinase and mTOR contribute to the induction of AP activity by OP-1 and the synergistic effect of OP-1 and IGF-I on AP activity in FRC cells.

Abstract
The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of an in vitro stimulation of human osteoblasts by recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-7 (rhBMP-7) on the collagen types and the quantity of the collagen cross-links synthesized in a three-dimensional culture on various biomaterials for bone replacement. Trabecular bone chips were harvested from human iliac crests, and cell cultures were established at standard conditions. One hundred and fifty nanograms per milliliter of rhBMP-7 was added. For the second passage a cell scraper was used to bring the cells into suspension, and 100 microl osteoblasts (at a density of 3.3 x 10(5)) were transferred onto nine blocks of either Bio-Oss, Tutoplast, or PepGen p-15. Blocks incubated with cells that were not treated with rhBMP-7 served as controls. Cell colonization of the biomaterials was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) after a period of 2, 4, and 6 weeks. Throughout the experiment medium, supernatants were collected and collagen was characterized by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Finally, the collagen cross-link residues hydroxylysylpyridinoline (HP) and lysylpyridinoline (LP) were quantified by HPLC. Within 4 weeks the cells became confluent on all of the studied biomaterials. All samples synthesized bone specific LP and collagen type I. However, in rhBMP-7-stimulated samples, the amount of HP and LP found was increased by 45% compared to non-stimulated samples. Cell proliferation and collagen synthesis was similar on the different biomaterials, but was consistently reduced in specimen not stimulated with rhBMP-7. In vitro stimulation of osteoblasts on Bio-Oss, Tutoplast, or PepGen p-15 with rhBMP-7 and subsequent transplantation of the constructs might lead to an enhanced osseointegration of the biomaterials in vivo.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma (NB), a malignant childhood tumor deriving from the embryonic neural crest, is sensitive to the growth-stimulating effects of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs). Aggressive cases of this disease often acquire autocrine loops of IGF production, but the mechanisms through which the different components of the IGF axis are regulated in tumor cells remain unclear. Upon conditional expression of c-Myb in a NB cell line, we detected up-regulation of IGF1, IGF1 receptor, and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 (IGFBP-5) expression. Analysis of the IGFBP-5 promoter revealed two potential Myb binding sites at position -59 to -54 (M1) and -429 to -424 (M2) from the transcription start site; both sites were bound by c-Myb and B-Myb in vitro and in vivo. Reporter assays carried out using the proximal region of the human IGFBP-5 promoter demonstrated that c-Myb and B-Myb enhanced transcription. However, site-directed mutagenesis and deletion of the Myb binding sites coupled with reporter assays revealed that M2 but not M1 was important for Myb-dependent transactivation of the IGFBP-5 promoter. The double mutant M1/M2 was still transactivated by c-Myb, suggesting the existence of Myb binding-independent mechanisms of IGFBP-5 promoter regulation. A constitutively active AKT transactivated the IGFBP-5 promoter, whereas the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 suppressed it. Moreover, the kinase dead dominant negative K179M AKT mutant was able to inhibit transcription from the M2 and M1/M2 IGFBP-5 mutant promoters. Deletion analysis of the IGFBP-5 promoter revealed that the AKT-responsive region lies between nucleotides -334 and -83. Together, these data suggest that the Myb binding-independent transactivation of the IGFBP-5 promoter was due to the activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/AKT pathway likely mediated by IGF1 receptor-dependent signals. Finally, IGFBP-5 was able to modulate proliferation of NB cells in a manner dependent on its concentration and on the presence of IGFs.

Abstract
The specification of the five individual hormone-secreting cell types in the anterior pituitary requires a series of sequential cell fate decisions. We have immortalized cells at several stages along this pathway of pituitary differentiation. Here, we present analysis of differences in gene expression between an anterior pituitary precursor cell line, alphaT1-1, and an immature gonadotrope cell line, alphaT3-1, identified by using cDNA subtraction. Messenger RNA expression of members of the insulin-like growth factor signaling system, IGF-II and IGFBP-5, was found in the alphaT1-1 precursor cell line, but not in the more differentiated cell line, alphaT3-1. This inferred stage specificity was confirmed in the mouse embryo by using in situ hybridization on embryonic days e10.5 through e18.5. Expression of IGF-II and IGFBP-5 mRNAs was both temporally and spatially regulated during pituitary development. IGF-II was highly expressed in the epithelium surrounding Rathke's pouch at e10.5, while IGFBP-5 expression was restricted to the adjacent oral epithelium. At e11.5 (represented by alphaT1-1), IGF-II was expressed throughout the pouch, but was coexpressed with IGFBP-5 and alpha-subunit in the ventral portion of the pouch epithelium. On e12.5, the two mRNAs were expressed in opposing dorsoventral (IGF-II) and ventrodorsal (IGFBP-5) patterns, with IGF-II excluded from the rostral, alpha-subunit-expressing region. A decrease of both mRNAs was observed at e14.5 (equivalent to alphaT3-1), with IGF-II levels low and IGFBP-5 concentrated in the anterior pituitary rostral tip. These findings suggest that the timing of IGF-II expression and regulation of its accessibility by IGFBP-5 may play a role in anterior pituitary differentiation, survival, and/or proliferation.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) I is a critical peptide for skeletal growth and consolidation. However, its regulation is complex and, in part, heritable. We previously indicated that changes in both serum and skeletal IGF-I were related to strain-specific differences in total femoral bone mineral density (BMD) in mice. In addition, we defined four quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that contribute to the heritable determinants of the serum IGF-I phenotype in F2 mice derived from progenitor crosses between C3H/HeJ (C3H; high total femoral BMD and high IGF-I) and C57BL/6J (B6; low total femoral BMD and low IGF-I) strains. The strongest QTL, IGF-I serum level 1 (Igflsl-1; log10 of the odds ratio [LOD] score, approximately 9.0), is located on the middle portion of chromosome (Chr) 6. For this locus, C3H alleles are associated with a significant reduction in serum IGF-I. To test the effect of this QTL in vivo, we generated a new congenic strain (B6.C3H-6T [6T]) by placing the Chr 6 QTL region (D6Mit93 to D6Mit150) from C3H onto the B6 background. We then compared serum and skeletal IGF-I levels, body weight, and several skeletal phenotypes from the N9 generation of 6T congenic mice against B6 control mice. Female 6T congenic mice had 11-21% lower serum IGF-I levels at 6, 8, and 16 weeks of age compared with B6 (p < 0.05 for all). In males, serum IGF-I levels were similar in 6T congenics and B6 controls at 6 weeks and 8 weeks but were lower in 6T congenic mice at 16 weeks (p < 0.02). In vitro, there was a 40% reduction in secreted IGF-I in the conditioned media (CMs) from 6T calvaria osteoblasts compared with B6 cells (p < 0.01). Total femoral BMD as measured by peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) was lower in both 6T male (-4.8%, p < 0.01) and 6T female (-2.3%, p = 0.06) congenic mice. Geometric features of middiaphyseal cortical bone were reduced in 6T congenic mice compared with control mice. Femoral cancellous bone volume (BV) density and trabecular number (Tb.N) were 50% lower, whereas trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) was 90% higher in 8-week-old female 6T congenic mice compared with B6 control mice (p < 0.01 for all). Similarly, vertebral cancellous BV density and Tb.N were lower (-29% and -19%, respectively), whereas Tb.Sp was higher (+29%) in 16-week-old female 6T congenic mice compared with B6 control mice (p < 0.001 for all). Histomorphometric evaluation of the proximal tibia indicated that 6T congenics had reduced BV fraction, labeled surface, and bone formation rates compared with B6 congenic mice. In summary, we have developed a new congenic mouse strain that confirms the Chr 6 QTL as a major genetic regulatory determinant for serum IGF-I. This locus also influences bone density and morphology, with more dramatic effects in cancellous bone than in cortical bone.

Abstract
We previously demonstrated that Poly (IC) decreased the growth of C6 cultures in association with reduced IGF-I synthesis and secretion. In this study we characterized the mechanism(s) by which Poly (IC) decreased IGF-I mRNA in C6 cells. Both Poly (IC) and type I interferon (IFN) decreased IGF-I mRNA. Cycloheximide and a blocking antibody against IFN did not alter the Poly (IC)-mediated inhibition of IGF-I mRNA, but prevented IFN from reducing IGF-I mRNA. Poly (IC) did not alter the stability of IGF-I mRNA. Poly (IC) decreased the abundance of IGF-I pre-mRNA in C6 nuclei, but did not inhibit proximal IGF-I exon 1 promoter/luciferase fusion constructs in transient transfection assays. Poly (IC) activated double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) at 5 min and increased PKR protein levels at 48 and 72 h. Exogenous IGF-I did not prevent Poly (IC) from activating PKR, but inhibited the Poly (IC)-mediated increase in PKR protein levels. The PKR inhibitor 2-aminopurine prevented the Poly (IC) stimulation of eIF2-alpha phosphorylation and the Poly (IC)-mediated decrease in IGF-I mRNA. We conclude that Poly (IC) decreases IGF-I gene transcription in a mechanism that requires the activation of preexisting PKR, but not the induction of IFN or PKR proteins in C6 cells.

Abstract
Osteogenic Protein-1 (OP-1), a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family that belongs to the TGF-beta superfamily, induces bone formation in vivo and stimulates the synthesis of biochemical markers characteristic of osteoblast phenotypes in vitro. In the present study, effects of OP-1 on the expression of the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in fetal rat calvaria (FRC) cells were examined. The PAI-1 protein levels in conditioned media of FRC cells treated with OP-1 or solvent control were determined by quantitative 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The identity of PAI-1 was confirmed by mass spectroscopy. OP-1 increased the PAI-1 protein level by about 5-fold after 48 h. Northern blot analysis showed that the PAI-1 mRNA level was elevated by OP-1 by about 25% compared to the control. The observed increase in the PAI-1 mRNA and protein level was regulated post-transcriptionally as supported by the following observations: (a) OP-1 did not stimulate the cloned PAI-1 promoter-reporter gene activity in transient transfection studies, (b) inhibition of transcription by actinomycin D did not change the PAI-1 mRNA level in the OP-1-treated FRC cells, and (c) the stability of the PAI-1 mRNA in FRC cells treated with OP-1 was increased by about 28% compared to that in the control cells. Hence, the present study shows that primary cultures of rat osteoblastic cells synthesize and secrete PAI-1 protein and that OP-1 elevates the PAI-1 protein level. At least, one of the regulatory mechanism is by stabilizing the PAI-1 mRNA. J. Cell. Biochem. Suppl. 36: 46-54, 2001.

Abstract
Osteogenic protein-1 (OP-1), a member of the bone morphogenetic protein subfamily of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily, induces new bone formation in vivo and regulates the expression of numerous growth factors. We previously showed that OP-1 down-regulates the transcription of the insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) in primary cultures of fetal rat calvaria (FRC) cells. In the present study we identified, within the IGFBP-5 promoter, a 21-bp region that confers OP-1 responsiveness in FRC cells. Within this region lie three putative cis-acting regulatory elements, viz. a CAAT-like sequence, a CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBPalpha)-like element, and a c-Myb or E-box-like motif. Mutations in the CAAT-like sequence reduced the promoter activity in both control and OP-1-treated cells, but did not abrogate the OP-1-induced down-regulation. Mutations in the C/EBPalpha-like element reduced the promoter activity in both control and OP-1-treated cells without significantly affecting the extent of down-regulation. Mutations in the putative c-Myb or E-box-like motif reduced the promoter activity in both the OP-1-treated and control cells and completely abolished the inhibitory effect of OP-1 on the IGFBP-5 promoter activity. Gel mobility shift analyses further showed specific interaction between nuclear protein(s) in FRC cells and the 21-bp region. OP-1 down-regulates the nuclear regulatory protein interaction with the 21-bp region by reducing either the cellular concentration of the regulatory protein(s) or the affinity of the regulatory protein(s) for the OP-1 responsive element. In conclusion, we identified an OP-1 response region in the rat IGFBP-5 promoter and further showed that OP-1 down-regulates the nuclear protein interaction with the response element(s).

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) is produced by osteoblasts and potentiates insulin-like growth factor mitogenic stimulation in osteoblast cell cultures. Progesterone (PG) increased IGFBP-5 expression in normal human osteoblasts and increased IGFBP-5 transcription in U2 human osteosarcoma cells. We developed a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase reporter construct containing the human IGFBP-5 proximal promoter sequence, which includes TATA and CAAT boxes, and five putative PG response element half-sites. 10(-8) M PG increased promoter activity of this construct in U2 cells co-transfected with a PG receptor isoform A (PR(A)) expression vector. Analysis of 5' deletion constructs indicates that PG transactivation of IGFBP-5 promoter activity does not require the PG response element half-sites but does require the region -162 to -124 containing two tandem CACCC box sequences. Mutation of the proximal CACCC box at -139 eliminated PG transactivation. Gel shift assays using a -162 to -124 DNA fragment, U2 cell nuclear extracts, and purified PR(A) protein indicate that nuclear factors bind to a CACCC sequence at -139 and that PR(A) alters the pattern of transcription factor interaction with the CACCC sequence. Using a luciferase reporter construct containing base pairs -252 to +24 of the IGFBP-5 promoter, we found that both PR(A) and PR(B) isoforms mediated PG stimulation of promoter activity. These results suggest that PG may stimulate IGFBP-5 gene transcription via a novel mechanism involving PR and CACCC-binding factors.
