Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze and review the clinical features and main outcomes of laminar resorption from the UK osteo-odonto-keratoprosthesis (OOKP) cohort. METHODS A retrospective review of case records was undertaken for patients who underwent keratoprostheses between 1996 and 2014 at the Sussex Eye Hospital, Brighton, UK. The main clinical outcomes of resorption, including its clinical signs, complications, treatments, and laminar survival, were evaluated. RESULTS Sixty-four patients (25-females, 39-males) were included, and in total, 74 laminae (3-tibial, 11-allografts, 60-autografts) were implanted. The age of the patients ranged from 20 to 91 years. Focal laminar thinning was the first sign of detectable resorption in 50% of autografts and 27% of allografts. All the tibial grafts and 55% of allografts presented with complications of resorption like endophthalmitis and aqueous leakage as the first signs of resorption. The survival of first implanted autografts was 82.4%(±6.3%) at 18 years, which was enhanced to 91.5%(±5.0%) by prophylactic exchanges of critically resorbed laminae with new laminae. Visual acuity survival analysis did not reveal a statistically significant difference between grafts with and without resorption for all graft types (p = 0.825). Patients treated with Alendronic acid and acetazolamide demonstrated trends toward the slower progression of resorption, but this was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS Focal laminar thinning was the common presenting feature of resorption in autografts. Timely replacement of the resorbed laminae with new laminae should be considered to avoid complications. Alendronic acid supplementation may be considered in high-risk cases of resorption to reduce further progression.

[PMID: 22838845 PMCID: PMC3580570 DOI: 10.1186/ar3929] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2012] [Accepted: 07/27/2012] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is characterized by abnormal bone formation in the spine and the sacroiliac joints. In vitro assays demonstrate that carbonic anhydrase I (CA1) promotes calcium precipitation. This study investigated the function of CA1 for bio-mineralization and determined if common polymorphisms in the CA1 gene might contribute to AS risk. Methods Calcification was induced in Saos-2 cells, a human osteosarcoma cell line, with ascorbic acid and β-glycerophosphate. Calcification was determined by Alizarin Red-S (AR-S) staining. Expressions of CA1, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone sialoprotein (BSP), osteocalcin (OCN), osterix (OSX) and runt-related transcription factor-2 (Runx2) were determined by real-time PCR and western blotting. The cells were also treated with acetazolamide, an anti-carbonic anhydrase drug. Genotyping was performed using Illumina VeraCode microarray in a case-control study including 51 AS patients, 267 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and 160 healthy controls. The result was confirmed by Taqman assay, including 258 AS patients, 288 RA patients and 288 healthy controls. Results Following the induction of calcification, Saos-2 cells produced large amounts of calcium-rich deposits. Increased transcriptions of CA1, ALP, BSP, OCN, OSX and Runx2, essential genes for ossification, were detected in the cultured cells. Following treatmen with acetazolamide, the expression of CA1 obviously declined and mineralized nodule formation was also decreased. Illumina microarray indicates that SNP at rs7841425 also showed significant differences in allelic frequency (P = 0.01396) and genotypic frequency (P = 0.005902) between AS cases and controls. In addition, SNP at rs7827474 showed significant differences in allelic frequency (P = 5.83E-04) and genotypic frequency (P = 0.000186) between RA cases and controls (P values were adjusted to multiple comparisons). The Taqman assay revealed that rs725605 demonstrated statistically significant evidence of allele frequency (P = 0.022307) and gene frequency (P = 0.007731) for association with AS. This SNP did not show significant differences in allelic frequencies and gene frequencies between RA patients and controls. Conclusions CA1 may play an essential role in bio-mineralization and new bone formation. The gene encoding CA1 is susceptible to AS.

Abstract
The carbonic anhydrases enzymes (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) are zinc containing metalloproteins, which efficiently catalyse the reversible conversion of carbon dioxide to bicarbonate and release proton. These enzymes are essentially important for biological system and play several important physiological and patho-physiological functions. There are 16 different alpha-carbonic anhydrase isoforms studied, differing widely in their cellular localization and biophysical properties. The catalytic domains of all CAs possess a conserved tertiary structure fold, with predominately β-strands. We performed an extensive analysis of all 16 mammalian CAs for its structure and function in order to establish a structure-function relationship. CAs have been a potential therapeutic target for many diseases. Sulfonamides are considered as a strong and specific inhibitor of CA, and are being used as diuretics, anti-glaucoma, anti-epileptic, anti-ulcer agents. Currently CA inhibitors are widely used as a drug for the treatment of neurological disorders, anti-glaucoma drugs, anti-cancer, or anti-obesity agents. Here we tried to emphasize how CAs can be used for drug discovery, design and screening. Furthermore, we discussed the role of CA in carbon capture, carbon sensor and metabolon. We hope this review provide many useful information on structure, function, mechanism, and applications of CAs in various discipline.

Abstract
Calcium-based matrices serve predominantly as inorganic, hard skeletal systems in Metazoa from calcareous sponges [phylum Porifera; class Calcarea] to proto- and deuterostomian multicellular animals. The calcareous sponges form their skeletal elements, the spicules, from amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC). Treatment of spicules from Sycon raphanus with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) results in the disintegration of the ACC in those skeletal elements. Until now a distinct protein/enzyme involved in ACC metabolism could not been identified in those animals. We applied the technique of phage display combinatorial libraries to identify oligopeptides that bind to NaOCl-treated spicules: those oligopeptides allowed us to detect proteins that bind to those spicules. Two molecules have been identified, the (putative) enzyme carbonic anhydrase and the (putative) osteoclast-stimulating factor (OSTF), that are involved in the catabolism of ACC. The complete cDNAs were isolated and the recombinant proteins were prepared to raise antibodies. In turn, immunofluorescence staining of tissue slices and qPCR analyses have been performed. The data show that sponges, cultivated under standard condition (10 mM CaCl2) show low levels of transcripts/proteins for carbonic anhydrase or OSTF, compared to those animals that had been cultivated under Ca2+-depletion condition (1 mM CaCl2). Our data identify with the carbonic anhydrase and the OSTF the first two molecules which remain conserved in cells, potentially involved in Ca-based skeletal dissolution, from sponges (sclerocytes) to human (osteoclast).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increased bone resorption and new bone information are two characteristics of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Much evidence has shown that carbonic anhydrase inhibitors can restrain bone resorption. We had detected increased expression of carbonic anhydrase I (CA1) in synovium of patients with AS. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of methazolamide, an anti-carbonic anhydrase drug, for treating patients with AS. METHODS Two patients, called as S and L, were diagnosed with active AS based on BASDAI and BASFI assessments, radiographic data and other clinical indices. They took methazolamide tablets at a dose of 25 mg twice every day. RESULTS Patient S's BASDAI score fell from 5.4 to 4.4, while patient L's BASDAI fell from 2.4 to 2. Patient S's BASFI score change from 2.7 to 2.9, while patient L's BASFI score fell from 1.2 to 0.2. The ESR values of patient S were considerably reduced, while the ESR value of patient L remained unchanged and in the normal range. The calcium concentration of patient S decreased from 3.05 mmol/L to 2.39 mmol/L. The CT evidence indicates that the articular surfaces of the erosive sacroiliac joints became clearer and the area of the calcium deposits began decreased. No significant systemic side effects were observed in either patient. CONCLUSIONS The above results indicate that methazolamide was effective for active AS. Methazolamide may improve AS symptoms by inhibiting carbonic anhydrase activity during the processes of bone reporption and new bone formation.

Abstract
Background One of the most distinctive features of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is new bone formation and bone resorption at sites of chronic inflammation. Previous studies have indicated that the hyperplasia and inflammation of synovial tissues are significantly related to the pathogenic process of AS. The present study used a proteomic approach to identify novel AS-specific proteins by simultaneously comparing the expression profiles of synovial membranes from patients with AS, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Synovial tissues were collected from the hip joints of patients with AS and knee joints of patients with RA or OA (n = 10 for each disease) during joint replacement surgery. Proteins extracted from the synovial tissues were separated by 2-D electrophoresis (2-DE), and the proteins with significantly increased expression in the AS samples were subjected to MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS analysis. The results were verified using western blotting and immunohistochemistry. Levels of the candidate proteins in synovial fluids from knee joints (n = 40 for each disease) were measured using ELISA. Results The proteomic approach revealed significantly increased expression of carbonic anhydrase I (CA1) in the synovial membrane of patients with AS as compared with the RA and OA tissue samples. Immunohistochemistry and western blotting analysis confirmed the findings described above. The ELISA detected a higher level of CA1 in synovial fluids from patients with AS than those with OA. The mean value of the CA1 level was also higher in AS patients as compared with RA patients. This study also detected increased expression of alpha-1-antitrypsin in the synovial tissues from AS patients, which is in agreement with other reports. Conclusion In vitro experiments by other groups indicated that CA1 catalyzes the generation of HCO3- through the hydration of CO2, which then combines with Ca2+ to form a CaCO3 precipitate. Calcification is an essential step of bone formation. Substantial evidence indicates that carbonic anhydrase also stimulates bone resorption. Hence, overexpression of CA1 in the synovial tissues of AS patients may promote improper calcification and bone resorption in AS.

Abstract
The use of substances that inhibit root resorption may be an alternative for cases of unsuccessful reimplants. Hence, the purpose of this study was to test a solution of acetazolamide, a resorption inhibitor, as an intracanal therapeutic agent for late reimplanted teeth. Thirty rat maxillary right central incisors were avulsed and kept dry for 30 min. The teeth were instrumented, and the root surfaces treated with 1% hypochlorite solution followed by application of 2% sodium fluoride. Thereafter, the teeth were divided into two groups according to the intracanal dressing: Group I, solution of acetazolamide and Group II, calcium hydroxide paste. Teeth were then reimplanted in their respective sockets. The animals were killed at 15, 30, and 60 days after reimplantation and the samples processed for morphometric and microscopic analysis. The results showed that calcium hydroxide paste limited root resorption, even though not avoiding it. In contrast, no root resorption was observed after 60 days in the acetazolamide group, confirming the efficacy of the substance in inhibiting root resorption.

Abstract
Eggs of domestic fowl were given daily injections of vehicle (DMSO) or vehicle plus acetazolamide, a potent inhibitor of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, beginning on day 12 of incubation. Embryos were removed from eggs on days 16 and 18, and carcasses and yolks were analyzed for calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus. Treatment with acetazolamide did not affect the quantity of calcium or phosphorus in carcasses and the effect, if any, on magnesium in carcasses was small. However, calcium content of yolk was reduced substantially by acetazolamide both on day 16 and day 18. The reduction in calcium content of yolk led, in turn, to a reduction in the total quantity of calcium in eggs on days 16 and 18. Embryos exposed to acetazolamide seemingly mobilized less calcium from the eggshell than did control embryos. When faced with a shortfall in the availability of calcium from the eggshell, embryos defended carcass calcium, and the shortfall was reflected in a reduction in the quantity of calcium deposited in yolk. The results of this study support the concept that the enzyme carbonic anhydrase plays a role in solubilization of the eggshell and provision of calcium to embryos.

Abstract
Src tyrosine kinase plays key roles in signal transduction following growth factor stimulation and integrin-mediated cell-substrate adhesion. Since src-signal transduction defects are implicated in a multitude of human diseases, we have sought to develop new ways to identify small molecule inhibitors using a yeast-based, activated-src over-expression system. In the present study, we describe the identification of a unique src-signal transduction inhibitor, UCS15A. UCS15A was found to inhibit the src specific tyrosine phosphorylation of numerous proteins in v-src-transformed cells. Two of these phosphoproteins were identified as bona-fide src substrates, cortactin and Sam68. UCS15A differed from conventional src-inhibitors in that it did not inhibit the tyrosine kinase activity of src. In addition, UCS15A appeared to differ from src-destabilizing agents such as herbimycin and radicicol that destabilize src by interfering with Hsp90. Our studies suggest that UCS15A exerted its src-inhibitory effects by a novel mechanism that involved disruption of protein-protein interactions mediated by src. One of the biological consequences of src-inhibition by UCS15A was its ability to inhibit the bone resorption activity of osteoclasts in vitro. These data suggest that UCS15A may inhibit the bone resorption activity of osteoclasts, not by inhibiting src tyrosine kinase activity, but by disrupting the interaction of proteins associated with src, thereby modulating downstream events in the src signal transduction pathway.

Abstract
We describe the synthesis of Bodipy 558/568-modified acetazolamide, a fluorescent inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase and its use to localize the enzyme in living cells. The modified acetazolamide, with its specific sulfonamide group intact, labeled cells at concentrations as low as 10(-9) M, with a minimal loading time of 5 min. The staining was decreased by 57.4% by preincubating cells with unaltered acetazolamide (1:100) or with trifluoromethane sulfonamide, 6-ethoxyzolamide, and 5-(3-hydroxybenzoyl)-thiophene-2-sulfonamide. The efficacy of the inhibitor was unchanged by the fluorescent label, as determined by an acridine orange assay that detects acidification of osteoclasts, the cell model used in this study. This compound should prove to be useful for studying carbonic anhydrase in many organisms because of the high degree of conservation of the active site of this enzyme.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) expression in characteristic for the early stage of osteoclast differentiation. To study how CA II, which is crucial in proton generation in mature osteoclasts, influences the osteoclast differentiation process we performed rat bone marrow cultures. In this model, acetazolamide, a specific CA inhibitor, decreased the 1,25 (OH)2D3-induced formation of multinucleated tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive cells, in a dose-dependent manner. We then performed intracellular pH (pHi) and Ca2+ (Cai2+) measurements for cultured osteoclasts and noticed that addition of acetazolamide caused a rapid, transient increase of both parameters. The increase in pHi was dependent neither on the culture substrate nor on the extracellular pH (pHe) but the increase could be diminished by DIDS or by bicarbonate removal. Membrane-impermeable CA inhibitors (benzolamide and pd5000) did not have this effect. Addition of CA II antisense oligonucleotides into the cultures reduced the pHi increase significantly. CA II inhibition was also found to neutralize the intracellular vesicles at extracellular pH (pHe) of 7.4, but at less extent at pHe 7.0. In mouse calvaria cultures, bone resorption was inhibited dose dependently by acetazolamide at pHe 7.4 while inhibition was smaller at pHe 7.0. We conclude that CA II is essential not only in bone resorption but also in osteoclast differentiation. In both processes, however, the crucial role of CA II is at least partially due to the effect on the osteoclast pHi regulation.

Abstract
Exposure to cadmium (Cd) causes skeletal impairments, such as osteoporosis and osteomalacia, in many mammalian species, including humans. There is, however, some controversy about the mechanism of action of these Cd-induced skeletal effects, although both a direct influence on bone cells and effects that are secondary to renal damage caused by the metal have been demonstrated. In the present study, we cultured calvarial bones from neonatal mice and exposed them to Cd to study the effects of the metal on calcium release and on the activity of some enzymes of importance for bone resorption and bone formation. Cd dose-dependently stimulated calcium release from the bones. Maximal release was noted at Cd concentrations of 0.4-0.8 microM, which was similar to the level of release in the presence of maximal stimulatory concentrations of parathyroid hormone (10 nM) and prostaglandin E2 (10 microM). Cykloheximide (1 microM) inhibited calcium release elicited by Cd, prostaglandin E2 and parathyroid hormone. Cd-induced calcium release was linearly increased from 24 to 72 hr of culture. Production of prostaglandin E2 by the bone specimens was dose-dependently stimulated by Cd and inhibited by 1 microM indomethacin. Cd-induced calcium release was inhibited by acetazolamide (100 microM), indomethacin (1 microM) and ibuprofen (10 microM). Prostaglandin E2-stimulated calcium release was not inhibited by indomethacin. Exposure to 32 microM Cd, present during a 48-hr incubation period, significantly decreased prostaglandin E2-stimulated calcium release from 38.9% to 29.8%. Calcium release induced by parathyroid hormone was more sensitive to inhibition by the metal (i.e., Cd concentrations of 0.2 and 32 microM decreased the release from 37.7% to 31% and 19%, respectively). Cd present in the culture medium during a 48-hr incubation dose-dependently inhibited the activity of alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase in the bones but did not influence the activity of carbonic anhydrase. We conclude that Cd has a direct stimulatory effect on bone resorption, and this effect is dependent on prostaglandin production and also on protein synthesis. On the other hand, Cd also has an inhibitory effect on bone resorption (i.e., resorption is inhibited by higher concentrations of the metal). Moreover, Cd may impair bone formation by impeding the activity of alkaline phosphatase.

Abstract
The effects of the vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A1 (baf.A1) and the carbonic anhydrase II inhibitor acetazolamide (AZ) on bone resorption and procathepsin L secretion of rat osteoclasts were investigated using the bone slice assay method, pit formation test. Baf.A1 completely suppressed osteoclastic bone resorption stimulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH), but did not affect procathepsin L secretion, while AZ suppressed both bone resorption and procathepsin L secretion. These findings suggest that bone resorption by procathepsin L secretion and its processing are regulated by proton production and proton secretion.

Abstract
Due to the importance of Ca2+ in the regulation of vital cellular and tissue functions, the concentration of Ca2+ in body fluids is closely guarded by an efficient feedback control system. This system includes Ca(2+)-transporting subsystems (bone, and kidney), Ca2+ sensing, possibly by a calcium-sensing receptor, and calcium-regulating hormones (parathyroid hormone [PTH], calcitonin [CT], and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3]). In humans and birds, acute Ca2+ perturbations are handled mainly by modulation of kidney Ca2+ reabsorption and by bone Ca2+ flow under PTH and possibly CT regulation, respectively. Chronic perturbations are also handled by the more sluggish but economic regulatory action of 1,25(OH2)D3 on intestinal calcium absorption. Peptide hormone secretion is modulated by Ca2+ and several secretagogues. The hormones' signal is produced by interaction with their respective receptors, which evokes the cAMP and phospholipase C-IP3-Ca2+ signal transduction pathways. 1,25 (OH)2D3 operates through a cytoplasmic receptor in controlling transcription and through a membrane receptor that activates the Ca2+ and phospholipase C messenger system. The calciotropic hormones also influence processes not directly associated with Ca2+ regulation, such as cell differentiation, and may thus affect the calcium-regulating subsystems also indirectly.

Abstract
Protein sorting in eukaryotic cells is mainly done by specific targeting of polypeptides. The present evidence from oocytes, neurons, and some other polarized cells suggests that protein sorting can be further facilitated by concentrating mRNAs to their corresponding subcellular areas. However, very little is known about the mechanism(s) involved in mRNA targeting, or how widespread and dynamic such mRNA sorting might be. In this study, we have used an in vitro cell culture system, where large multinucleated osteoclasts undergo continuous structural and functional changes from polarized (resorbing) to a nonpolarized (resting) stage. We demonstrate here, using a nonradioactive in situ hybridization technique and confocal microscopy, that mRNAs for several vacuolar H(+)-ATPase subunits change their localization and polarity in osteoclasts according to the resorption cycle, whereas mRNA for cytoplasmic carbonic anhydrase II is found diffusely located throughout the osteoclast during the whole resorption cycle. Antisense RNA against the 16-kDa or 60-kDa V-ATPase subunit inhibits polarization of the osteoclasts, as determined by cytoskeleton staining. Antisense RNA against carbonic anhydrase II, however, has no such effect.

Abstract
Osteoclasts resorb bone by secreting protons into an extracellular resorption zone through vacuolar-type proton pumps located in the ruffled border. The present study was undertaken to evaluate whether proton pumps also contribute to intracellular pH (pHi) regulation. Fluorescence imaging and photometry, and electrophysiological methods were used to characterize the mechanisms of pH regulation in isolated rabbit osteoclasts. The fluorescence of single osteoclasts cultured on glass coverslips and loaded with a pH-sensitive indicator was measured in nominally HCO(3-)-free solutions. When suspended in Na(+)-rich medium, the cells recovered from an acute acid load primarily by means of an amiloride-sensitive Na+/H+ antiporter. However, rapid recovery was also observed in Na(+)-free medium when K+ was used as the substitute. Bafilomycin-sensitive, vacuolar-type pumps were found to contribute marginally to pH regulation and no evidence was found for K+/H+ exchange. In contrast, pHi recovery in high K+ medium was largely attributed to a Zn(2+)-sensitive proton conductive pathway. The properties of this conductance were analyzed by patch-clamping osteoclasts in the whole-cell configuration. Depolarizing pulses induced a slowly developing outward current and a concomitant cytosolic alkalinization. Determination of the reversal potential during ion substitution experiments indicated that the current was due to H+ (equivalent) translocation across the membrane. The H+ current was greatly stimulated by reducing pHi, consistent with a homeostatic role of the conductive pathway during intracellular acidosis. These results suggest that vacuolar-type proton pumps contribute minimally to the recovery of cytoplasmic pH from intracellular acid loads. Instead, the data indicate the presence of a pH- and membrane potential-sensitive H+ conductance in the plasma membrane of osteoclasts. This conductance may contribute to translocation of charges and acid equivalents during bone resorption and/or generation of reactive oxygen intermediates by osteoclasts.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) which catalyzes the reversible hydrolysis of carbon dioxide is known to be important in osteoclastic bone resorption, however, suggested roles in calcium phosphate mineral formation have not been previously demonstrated. Biochemical evidence is provided for the presence of CA in growth plate matrix vesicles (MV) and the level of activity determined by enzyme assay. Inhibition of CA activity with the specific inhibitor acetazolamide resulted in reduced rates of MV mineralization. Other inhibitor studies showed that MV mineralization was also impaired by 4,4-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2, 2-disulfonic acid (DIDS), a blocker of membrane bicarbonate channels. No evidence was found for the presence of any proton pumps or channels. When acetazolamide and DIDS were combined, their inhibitory effects on MV mineralization were additive. These findings suggest that MV possess a pH regulation system composed of carbonic anhydrase and a putative bicarbonate channel. This system may function in the MV by providing intraluminal buffering capacity. The control of intravesicular pH is important for the stabilization of the acid-labile nucleational core complex and in preventing the build-up of protons during calcium phosphate phase transformations.

Abstract
The bone resorbing cells, osteoclasts, express high levels of carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) and vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) during bone resorption. We have used antisense RNA and DNA molecules targeted against CA II, and against 16- and 60-kD subunits of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase), to block the expression of these proteins in vitro. Osteoclastic bone resorption was studied in two in vitro culture systems: release of 45Calcium from prelabeled newborn mouse calvaria cultures, and resorption pit assays performed with rat osteoclasts cultured on bovine bone slices. Both antisense RNA and DNA against CA II and the V-ATPase were used to compare their specificities as regards inhibiting bone resorption in vitro. The antisense molecules inhibited the synthesis of these proteins by decreasing the amounts of mRNA in the cells in a highly specific manner. In osteoclast cultures treated with the 16-kD V-ATPase antisense RNA, acidification of an unknown population of intracellular vesicles was highly stimulated. The acidification of these vesicles was not sensitive to amiloride or bafilomycin A1. This suggests the existence of a back-up system for acidification of intracellular vesicles, when the expression of the V-ATPase is blocked. Our results further indicate that blocking the expression of CA II and V-ATPase with antisense RNA or DNA leads to decreased bone resorption.

Abstract
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) is essential for the transport of eggshell calcium to the embryo across the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM). CAM contains the vitamin D receptor that increases following 1,25-(OH)2D3 injection into embryos at day 10 of incubation. Further, a single injection of 100 ng of 1,25-(OH)2D3 into vitamin D-deficient quail eggs at day 10 of incubation resulted in a significant increase in both body and yolk calcium. This is accompanied by an increase in carbonic anhydrase from low levels in deficiency to normal levels. Acetazolamide (AZ), a specific carbonic anhydrase inhibitor injected into the quail embryos, caused hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia. This is similar to the hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia found in vitamin D-deficient embryos. These results suggest that one mechanism of action of vitamin D in the mobilization of eggshell calcium is the activation of carbonic anhydrase that acidifies the calcium carbonate shell.

Abstract
Past knowledge and the recent developments on the formation, activation and mode of action of osteoclasts, with particular reference to the regulation of each individual step, have been reviewed. The following conclusions of consensus have emerged. 1. The resorption of bone is the result of successive steps that can be regulated individually. 2. Osteoclast progenitors are formed in bone marrow. This is followed by their vascular dissemination and the generation of resting preosteoclasts and osteoclasts in bone. 3. The exact pathways of differentiation of the osteoclast progenators to mature osteoclasts are debatable, but there is clear evidence that stromal cells support osteoclast generation. 4. Osteoclasts are activated following contact with mineralized bone. This appears to be controlled by osteoblasts that expose mineral to osteoclasts and/or release a factor that activates these cells. 5. Activated osteoclasts dissolve the bone mineral and digest the organic matter of bone by the action of agents secreted in the segregated microcompartments underlying their ruffled borders. The mineral is solubilized by protons generated from CO2 by carbonic anhydrase and secreted by an ATP-driven vacuolar H(+)-K(+)-ATPase located at the ruffled border. The organic matrix of the bone is removed by acid proteinases, particularly cysteine-proteinases that are secreted together with other lysosomal enzymes in the acid environment of the resorption zone. 6. Osteoclastic bone resorption is directly regulated by a polypeptide hormone, calcitonin (CT), and locally, by ionized calcium (Ca2+) generated as a result of osteoclastic bone resorption. 7. There is new evidence that osteoclast activity may also be influenced by the endothelial cells via generation of products including PG, NO and endothelin.

Abstract
Immobilization causes a transient increase in bone resorption and a prolonged depression of bone formation. We have studied the effect of immobilization on the expression of two proteins believed to have a major functional role in osteoclasts, the proteolipid subunit of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (VPL) and carbonic anhydrase II (CA II). Trabecular bone from immobilized rat tibiae was analyzed using northern and slot blotting, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and morphometric analysis. CA II and VPL transcription was rapidly stimulated in trabecular bone of immobilized rat tibiae. Osteoclast number increased and the trabecular bone volume decreased during immobilization. Fluorescein-labeled cDNA probes and a confocal laser scanning microscope were used to study the localization of VPL and CA II mRNAs in situ in osteoclasts and other bone-derived cells attached to bovine bone slices in vitro. CA II and VPL mRNA were highly expressed in actively resorbing osteoclasts, but in nonresorbing osteoclasts mRNA expression was very low or not detectable at all. These results strongly suggest that both CA II and VPL have an important functional role in bone resorption. Finally, in the bone cell population isolated for these studies, CA II was found to be highly specific for osteoclasts whereas VPL was also detected in other cell types.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitors, such as acetazolamide (AZ), formerly used as diuretics, still play a role in the treatment of glaucoma, epilepsy, and altitude sickness. There is now hard evidence from both in vitro and in vivo studies in animals that carbonic anhydrase plays a vital function in bone loss. Acetazolamide blocks bone resorption in these experimental models. We have postulated that acetazolamide has potential for the treatment of human conditions associated with bone loss. In preparation for a clinical trial of acetazolamide's effectiveness in this regard, we developed an enzymatic method for determining the total concentration of acetazolamide in human serum. Acetazolamide is stripped from binding to serum proteins by adding 10(-6) M salicylic acid and adjusting the pH to 2.5, followed by ultrafiltration through a membrane (10 kD cutoff). The latter permits the free acetazolamide to enter the filtrate but retains any carbonic anhydrase (31 kD) which may contaminate the serum from hemolysis. The carbonic anhydrase inhibitory activity in the filtrate, representing the acetazolamide, is determined in a carbonic anhydrase assay using acetazolamide as the standard. Recoveries of acetazolamide added to human serum ranged from 83% to 94% depending on the concentration. Precision, as judged by the coefficient of variation, was 10.5%.

Abstract
Calcitonin is a direct inhibitor of osteoclastic activity. Osteoclast retraction is readily induced by calcitonin and it is possible that calcitonin-induced inhibition of bone resorption is in part due to this effect. However, little is known of the mechanisms of this action. In these studies, we have investigated the intracellular signalling pathway of calcitonin-induced osteoclast retraction using cultures of freshly isolated rat osteoclasts. The spread area occupied by single Giemsa-stained rat osteoclasts was measured in vitro by a computer imaging analysis system and used as a quantitative parameter for calculating the degree of osteoclast retraction in response to various agents. Our results show that cAMP may be an important second messenger in the reaction of osteoclasts to calcitonin. Moreover, both protein kinase-A and calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase are involved in the osteoclast retraction induced by this hormone, while cytoskeletal proteins are required for the process to occur.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) is highly expressed in the osteoclast, where it is involved in the process of extracellular acidification required for bone resorption. We have previously shown that 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], a steroid hormone that regulates the differentiation of macrophages and osteoclasts, induces the expression of CAII mRNA and protein in avian bone marrow cells. To determine whether this regulation occurred at the gene level, we have studied the effects of 1,25(OH)2D3 on CAII expression in a transformed myelomonocytic avian cell line (BM2). As observed in nontransformed cells, 1,25(OH)2D3 markedly increased CAII biosynthesis and mRNA levels. The increase in CAII mRNA was detected as early as 3 hr after adding the hormone (1.9-fold) and reached 4.7-fold by 48 hr. These effects were completely blocked by actinomycin D, and nuclear run-on analysis confirmed that 1,25(OH)2D3 increased the rate of CAII gene transcription. In contrast, induction of CAII mRNA expression was not affected by inhibition of protein synthesis with cycloheximide, and no significant changes in mRNA stability were seen. Thus, 1,25(OH)2D3 modulates CAII gene expression at the transcriptional level, and this effect does not require de novo synthesis of other gene products. These results suggest that activation of the CAII gene occurs early in the differentiation events triggered by vitamin D3 in myelomonocytic cells.

Abstract
The enzyme carbonic anhydrase has been suggested as a critical participant in osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. In humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (HHM) intense osteoclastic bone resorption is principally responsible for the observed hypercalcemia. We therefore undertook to examine the effect of the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor acetazolamide on the hypercalcemia induced by the H500 Leydig cell tumor in Fisher rats, a well-described model of HHM. Acetazolamide treatment for 10 h at 10 mg/h resulted in a significant fall in serum calcium in the five drug-treated animals (14.2 +/- 0.9 to 11.5 +/- 0.1 mg/dl, p less than 0.05). Conversely, the six animals infused with vehicle alone showed a significant rise in serum calcium (12.5 +/- 0.5 to 13.8 +/- 0.1 mg/dl, p less than 0.05). At the end of the infusion, the acetazolamide-treated animals had a significantly lower mean serum calcium than those receiving vehicle alone (11.5 +/- 0.1 versus 13.8 +/- 0.1, p less than 0.05). There was no significant change in serum phosphorus, urine calcium, urine phosphorus, or nephrogenous cyclic AMP excretion between the two groups. Acetazaolamide and HTS 5-(3-hydroxybenzoyl)-2-thiophenesulfonamide, another carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, both significantly inhibited in vitro bone resorption induced by 5 X 10(-9) M 36Tyr(1-36)-PTHrP-amide (PTHrP, parathyroid hormone-related protein). Acetazolamide also inhibited the resorption induced by 10(-8) M (1-141)-PTHrP and 2.5 X 10(-9) M (1-74)-PTHrP. We conclude that acetazolamide is effective in lowering the serum calcium in animals with humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that the mechanism of action for this effect is direct inhibition of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) generates the H+ required for osteoclast-mediated bone resorption in humans. We have developed the human promyelocytic cell line HL-60 as a model system with which to study the osteoclast-specific expression of the CA II gene. Treatment of the cell line with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 resulted in a dramatic de novo induction of CA II at both the protein and mRNA levels. CA II mRNA was also induced to a lesser extent by 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate. Treatment with dimethyl sulfoxide did not increase CA II mRNA. These findings indicate that the HL-60 cell line will be a useful model system to study the osteoclast-specific expression of the CA II gene.
