Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Retinoic acid (RA) exerts a wide variety of effects on development, cellular differentiation and homeostasis in various tissues. However, little is known about the effects of RA on the differentiation of periodontal ligament cells. In this study, we investigated whether RA can affect the dexamethasone-induced differentiation of periodontal ligament cells. METHODS AND RESULTS Human periodontal ligament cells were differentiated via culturing in the presence of dexamethasone, ascorbic acid, and beta-glycerophosphate for mineralized nodule formation, as characterized by von Kossa staining. Continuous treatment with all-trans-RA inhibited the mineralization in a dose-dependent manner, with complete inhibition over 1 microm RA. Other RA analogs, 9-cis-RA and 13-cis-RA, were also effective. Furthermore, addition of RA for just the first 4 days completely inhibited the mineralization; however, as RA was added at later stages of culture, the inhibitory effect was diminished, suggesting that RA had a phase-dependent inhibition of mineralization. RA receptor (RAR)-alpha agonist (AM-580), but not retinoid X receptor agonist (methoprene acid), inhibited the mineralization, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that RAR-alpha was expressed on the cells, suggesting that RAR-alpha was involved in the inhibitory mechanism. This inhibition was accompanied by inhibition of alkaline phosphatase activity; however, neither expression of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor-alpha, PDGF receptor-beta, or epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor, nor phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases triggered by PDGF-ascorbic acid or PDGF-BB was changed, as assessed by flow cytometry or western blot analyses. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that RA is a potential negative regulator for differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Homologous down-regulation/desensitization of the parathyroid hormone receptor (PTH1R)/adenylate cyclase system has been demonstrated in uremia, and may contribute to parathyroid hormone (PTH) resistance; however, additional studies have shown that parathyroidectomy fails to normalize the down-regulation of the PTH1R. The present studies were designed to test directly, in vitro, the hypothesis that factors circulating in the uremic environment, other than PTH, decrease the response of osteoblastic cells to PTH. METHODS Studies were conducted in confluent cultures of UMR 106-01 osteoblast-like cells. Uremic ultrafiltrate (UUF) was obtained from patients on hemodialysis. Cells were exposed to media containing 50% uremic ultrafiltrate for periods of up to 72 hours. Control cultures were exposed to a buffered salt solution containing a comparable ionic composition to that of the UUF. PTH-stimulated cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) generation was determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA), PTH binding and PTH1R mRNA levels were determined by radioligand binding and Northern analysis, respectively. RESULTS PTH-stimulated cAMP generation from cultures treated with uremic ultrafiltrate for 48 hours was 1385.8 +/- 183.2 pmol/culture/5 minutes, whereas control cultures generated 2389.5 +/- 271 pmol cAMP/culture/5 minutes (P < 0.05). PTH binding was decreased by 30% in cultures incubated with UUF as compared to controls. The decrease in binding induced by UUF was accompanied by a decrease in PTH1R mRNA levels. CONCLUSION These findings demonstrate that factors present in UUF decrease PTH-stimulated cAMP generation by a mechanism that involves a decrease in the levels of PTH1R mRNA levels. Thus, the skeletal resistance to PTH in the setting of chronic kidney disease, may be explained, at least in part, by circulating factors other than PTH.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) is one member of a large family of inflammatory cytokines that share common signal pathways, including activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (Nf-kappa B) and stimulation of the apoptotic pathway. Data derived from early work supported a role for TNF as a skeletal catabolic agent that stimulates osteoclastogenesis while simultaneously inhibiting osteoblast function. The finding that estrogen deficiency was associated with increased production of cytokines led to a barrage of studies and lively debate on the relative contributions of TNF and other cytokines on bone loss, on the potential cell sources of TNF in the bone microenvironment, and on the mechanism of TNF action. TNF has a central role in bone pathophysiology. TNF is necessary for stimulation of osteoclastogenesis along with the receptor activator of Nf-kappa B ligand (RANKL). TNF also stimulates osteoblasts in a manner that hinders their bone-formative action. TNF suppresses recruitment of osteoblasts from progenitor cells, inhibits the expression of matrix protein genes, and stimulates expression of genes that amplify osteoclastogenesis. TNF may also affect skeletal metabolism by inducing resistance to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)) by a mechanism that extends to other members of the steroid hormone nuclear receptor family. Thus, TNF assails bone at many levels. This review will focus on the cellular and molecular mechanisms of TNF action in the skeleton that result in increased bone resorption and impaired formation. TNF and its signal pathway remains an important target for the development of new therapies for bone loss from osteoporosis and inflammatory arthritis.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) reportedly induces vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) synthesis in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. We have recently shown that TGF-beta activates p44/p42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase and p38 MAP kinase in these cells. In the present study, we investigated the exact mechanism of TGF-beta behind the synthesis of VEGF in MC3T3-E1 cells. PD98059 and U-0126, specific inhibitors of MEK, suppressed the VEGF synthesis induced by TGF-beta. U-0126 inhibited the TGF-beta-induced p44/p42 MAP kinase phosphorylation. SB203580 and PD169316, inhibitors of p38 MAP kinase, reduced the TGF-beta-stimulated VEGF synthesis. SB202474, a negative control for p38 MAP kinase inhibitor, did not affect the VEGF synthesis. A combination with PD98059 and SB203580 almost completely suppressed the TGF-beta-induced VEGF synthesis. Retinoic acid, which alone failed to affect VEGF synthesis, markedly enhanced the VEGF synthesis stimulated by TGF-beta. Retinoic acid enhanced the TGF-beta-increased levels of VEGF mRNA. The amplifications by retinoic acid of TGF-beta-increased VEGF synthesis and levels of VEGF mRNA were reduced by PD98059 or SB203580. The combination of PD98059 and SB203580 almost completely suppressed the enhancement by retinoic acid of VEGF synthesis induced by TGF-beta. Taken together, our results strongly suggest that both p44/p42 MAP kinase and p38 MAP kinase take part in TGF-beta-stimulated VEGF synthesis in osteoblasts, and that retinoic acid upregulates the VEGF synthesis.

Abstract
Clonogenic immortalised human pre-osteoblastic cell lines provide useful species-specific experimental tools for the study of the regulation of osteoblastic proliferation and differentiation. Steroid hormones are major regulators of bone formation. Although much is known about the effects of dexamethasone on osteoblastic growth and differentiation in vitro, there is less information on the effects of trans-retinoic acid (RA), particularly in human cultures. We have established a clonal adult human cell line (C1) derived from a bone marrow aspirate. The cell line appeared to be bi-potential. The cells were able to differentiate into an adipocytic phenotype under appropriate culture conditions. When grown in osteogenic medium, the cells expressed alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin mRNA. The C1 cells also expressed several other osteoblastic markers such as collagen type 1 (COL 1), PTH/PTH-rp receptor constitutively. Transcripts for the osteoblast transcription factor Cbfa1 was also detected under basal conditions. In addition treatment with 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) (10(-7)M) led to a marked increase in osteocalcin mRNA expression suggesting that this cell line represents a pre-osteoblastic population. We compared the effects of Dex and RA on osteoblastic function. For the assessment of PTH/PTH-rp receptor, osteocalcin and Cbfa1 mRNA expression and PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase responsiveness, the cells were grown in the presence of Dex and RA and harvested on Days 1, 3, 7 and 14. RA (10(-7)M) had a mitogenic effect on the C1 cells. In contrast, Dex (10(-7)M) inhibited proliferation. A similar effect was observed with primary human bone marrow stromal cultures. Both Dex and RA inhibited COL 1 synthesis and decreased COL1 mRNA. Dex stimulated ALP activity and increased ALP mRNA expression whilst RA had an inhibitory effect. Dex treatment led to an increase in PTH/PTH-rp receptor mRNA and PTH-induced cAMP accumulation with a peak response at 24 h and this effect was sustained for up to 14 days. In contrast, long-term culture with RA resulted in a reduction in the cAMP response to PTH (Days 7 and 14) with no effect on PTH/PTH-rp receptor mRNA expression. Osteocalcin and Cbfa1 mRNA expression did not alter in the presence of Dex and RA at these time points. This study shows that Dex and RA have differential effects on the expression of the phenotypic markers and genes associated with osteoblast maturation. This homogeneous cell line can therefore be used further to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms of action of Dex and RA at the different developmental stages of human osteoblastic differentiation. This cell line may thus provide a useful species-specific in vitro model for the evaluation of key genes and signalling molecules involved in osteogenesis. This would be of help in the design of 'in vivo' studies.

Abstract
This study was undertaken to evaluate the bone changes occurring in rats with acute renal failure (ARF). Acute renal failure was induced in rats 24 hours after dehydration by an intramuscular injection of glycerol. After induction of ARF, the rats were divided into two groups, one of which underwent parathyroidectomy (PTX). Rats with normal renal function, matched for age and weight, were used as controls and divided into two groups, one of them for PTX. At termination of the study blood and urine chemistry and bone histomorphometry were analyzed. Rats with glycerol-induced ARF developed bone changes compatible with mild hyperparathyroid bone disease, characterized mainly by increased osteoclastic bone resorption when compared with control rats having normal renal function. Rats with normal renal function following PTX developed bone disease showing complete suppression of forming and resorptive parameters. Rats with glycerol-induced ARF and PTX showed abolishment of all bone forming parameters, but a dramatic increase in osteoclastic resorption was apparent. Based on these observations we suggest that, in this model of glycerol-induced ARF, osteoclastic bone resorption may develop in the absence of parathyroid hormone, probably stimulated by other potent osteoclastogenic factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the concentration of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP; an autocrine/paracrine regulator of type-2 alveolar epithelial cells proliferation and apoptosis) in the epithelial lining fluid (ELF) from patients without pulmonary disease and from patients with acute lung injury (ALI), and to evaluate whether PTHrP concentrations correlated with the intensity of lung injury. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING An adult trauma/surgical ICU in an urban teaching hospital. PATIENTS A total of 20 patients with ALI receiving mechanical ventilation (patients), and 10 patients without pulmonary disease not receiving mechanical ventilation (control subjects). INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS PTHrP was detected in all BAL fluids, and ELF PTHrP concentrations (median; 25% to 75% percentiles) tended to be higher in patients (52.2 nmol/mL; 20.8 to 65.6 nmol/mL) than in control subjects (25.4 nmol/mL; 20.5 to 35.4 nmol/mL; p = 0.18). In patients, ELF PTHrP concentration correlated positively with the PaO(2)/fraction of inspired oxygen ratio (r = 0.53; p = 0.005), and negatively with lung injury score (r = - 0.44; p = 0.02), radiologic score (r = - 0.40; p = 0.04), and BAL albumin concentration (r = - 0.42; p = 0.02). CONCLUSION PTHrP is present in biologically significant concentrations in the alveolar milieu in humans. In patients with ALI, the PTHrP concentration correlates negatively with the degree of lung injury.

Abstract
We investigated whether transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) stimulates the induction of heat shock protein (HSP) 27 and HSP70 in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells and the mechanism underlying the induction. TGF-beta increased the level of HSP27 but had no effect on the HSP70 level. TGF-beta stimulated the accumulation of HSP27 dose-dependently, and induced an increase in the level of mRNA for HSP27. TGF-beta induced the phosphorylation of p44/p42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase and p38 MAP kinase. The HSP27 accumulation induced by TGF-beta was significantly suppressed by PD98059, an inhibitor of the upstream kinase of p44/p42 MAP kinase, or SB203580, an inhibitor of p38 MAP kinase. PD98059 and SB203580 suppressed the TGF-beta-stimulated increase in the level of mRNA for HSP27. Retinoic acid, a vitamin A (retinol) metabolite, which alone had little effect on the HSP27 level, markedly enhanced the HSP27 accumulation stimulated by TGF-beta. Retinoic acid enhanced the TGF-beta-induced increase of mRNA for HSP27. The amplification of TGF-beta-stimulated HSP27 accumulation by retinoic acid was reduced by PD98059 or SB203580. Retinoic acid failed to affect the TGF-beta-induced phosphorylation of p44/p42 MAP kinase or p38 MAP kinase. These results strongly suggest that p44/p42 MAP kinase and p38 MAP kinase take part in the pathways of the TGF-beta-stimulated HSP27 induction in osteoblasts, and that retinoic acid upregulates the TGF-beta-stimulated HSP27 induction at a point downstream from p44/p42 MAP kinase and p38 MAP kinase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resistance to the action of parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been demonstrated in end-stage renal failure and is considered to be important in the pathogenesis of secondary hyperparathyroidism. The mechanism of resistance is unknown. However, altered regulation of cellular PTH/PTH-related protein (PTH/PTHrP) receptor (PTH1R) has been assumed to be important. METHODS We have used in situ hybridization to examine PTH1R mRNA expression by osteoblasts in human bone and have compared the expression in high- and low-turnover renal bone disease, high-turnover nonrenal bone disease (healing fracture callus and Pagetic bone), and normal bone. Bone biopsies were formalin fixed, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid decalcified, and paraffin wax embedded. A 1.8 kb PTH1R cDNA probe, labeled with 35S, was used, and the hybridization signal was revealed by autoradiography. The density of signal over osteoblasts was quantitated using a semiautomated Leica image analysis software package. RESULTS The mean density of PTH1R mRNA signal over osteoblasts in renal high-turnover bone was only 36% of that found in nonrenal high-turnover bone (P < 0.05) and 51% of that found in normal bone (P < 0.05). Osteoblast PTH1R mRNA signal in adynamic bone from individuals with diabetes mellitus was 28% of normal bone (P < 0.05) and 54% of that found in renal high-turnover bone (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS These results demonstrate a down-regulation of osteoblast PTH1R mRNA in end-stage renal failure in comparison to normal and high-turnover bone from otherwise healthy individuals, and provide an insight into the mechanisms of "skeletal resistance" to the actions of PTH.

Abstract
Interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) is a pleiotropic cytokine that modulates the cellular functions of both osteoblastic and osteoclastic lineages. It remains unclear whether IFN-alpha regulates the expression of parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) receptor, which is a major target molecule regulating skeletal metabolism. In this study, we examined the effect of IFN-alpha on the expression of PTH/PTHrP receptor in human osteoblastic cells (Saos-2). IFN-alpha inhibited the expression of PTH/PTHrP receptor gene in both a time- and dose-dependent manner. The mRNA level was decreased to 61.1% of that of the untreated control by 48 h treatment with 6000 U/mL of IFN-alpha. IFN-alpha also decreased cAMP response to PTH(1-34) in a dose-dependent manner and significantly depressed expression of the receptor protein. However, IFN-alpha did not exert any effect on other osteoblastic markers, such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, cAMP response to prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and secretion of bone gla-protein (BGP) and bone sialoprotein (BSP). Finally, IFN-alpha decreased PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA to 60.7% that of control in the presence of actinomycin D. These data suggest that IFN-alpha downregulates the expression of PTH/PTHrP receptor and its signaling without affecting other osteoblastic markers, and that IFN-alpha regulates its gene expression mainly by decreasing the stability of its mRNA.

Abstract
Bone is a target tissue for action of retinoids though their precise role remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of retinoic acid (RA) on the marrow stromal 3/A/1D-1M osteoblast-like cells, derived from the in vivo transplantation of 3/A/1D-1 chondroprogenitor cells. Long-term treatment with 1 microM RA for 7 weeks induced a marked decrease in bone-like nodule number and ultrastructural alterations in the striation and the size of the collagen fibres. RA at concentrations varying from 10 nM to 3.16 microM had a dose-dependent inhibition effect on alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity with an IC50 of 0.7 microM. Treatment with 1 microM RA for up to 17 days induced a time-dependent inhibition of AP activity, while the beginning of RA treatment (4 or 52 h of culture) produced a differential magnitude of inhibition. These variations were unrelated to modifications of the expression of RAR receptor at the protein level, as assessed by Western blot analysis. Exposure to 1 microM RA for 6 or 24 h administered at day 14 produced an inhibition of AP activity, which reached a maximum after 48 h, with a recovery time of 8 days in both cases. Long-term treatment with RA at 1 microM completely abolished the level of osteocalcin mRNA on both days 12 and 16, as revealed by Northern blot analysis. However, such RA-treated cells retained the constitutive expression of type II procollagen transcripts. These results suggest that RA inhibits several aspects of osteogenic differentiation capacity, a loss of phenotype, which, in association with the maintenance of type II procollagen cartilage-related characteristic, could be a prerequisite step for cellular plasticity.

Abstract
Locally derived growth factors and cytokines in bone play a crucial role in the regulation of bone remodeling, i.e., bone formation and bone resorption processes. We studied the effect of interleukin (IL)-1alpha, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the hormone-activated Ca2+ message system in the osteoblastic cell line UMR-106 and in osteoblastic cultures derived from neonatal rat calvariae. In both cell preparations, IL-1alpha, TNF-alpha, and LPS did not alter basal intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) but attenuated Ca2+ transients evoked by parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PGE2 in a dose (1-100 ng/ml)- and time (8-24 h)-dependent fashion. The cytokines modulated hormonally induced Ca2+ influx (estimated by using Mn2+ as a surrogate for Ca2+) as well as Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores. The latter was linked to suppressed production of hormonally induced inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. The effect of cytokines on [Ca2+]i was abolished by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor herbimycin A (50 ng/ml). The cytokine's effect was, however, independent of nitric oxide (NO) production, since NO donors (sodium nitroprusside) as well as permeable cGMP analogs augment, rather than attenuate, hormonally induced Ca2+ transients in osteoblasts. Given the stimulatory role of cytokines on NO production in osteoblasts, the disparate effects of cytokines and NO on the Ca2+ signaling pathway may serve an autocrine/paracrine mechanism for modulating the effect of calciotropic hormones on bone metabolism.

Abstract
We previously reported that prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) induces the synthesis of interleukin-6 (IL-6) via cAMP production in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells, and that, on the other hand, prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) stimulates IL-6 synthesis via activation of protein kinase C. In the present study, we examined the effect of retinoic acid on IL-6 synthesis induced by these two prostaglandins in MC3T3-E1 cells. Retinoic acid inhibited the IL-6 synthesis induced by PGF2alpha or PGE1 in a dose-dependent manner in the range between 0.1 and 10 nM. Retinoic acid also suppressed the IL-6 synthesis stimulated by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, an activator of protein kinase C. The IL-6 synthesis induced by cholera toxin, forskolin or dibutyryl cAMP was inhibited by retinoic acid. However, retinoic acid had little effect on the IL-6 synthesis induced by interleukin-1. These results indicate that retinoic acid inhibits IL-6 synthesis induced by prostaglandins in osteoblasts as follows: the inhibitory effect on the PGE1-induced IL-6 synthesis is exerted at a point downstream from cAMP, and the inhibitory effect on the PGF2alpha-induced IL-6 synthesis is exerted at a point downstream from protein kinase C.

Abstract
Mouse embryonic carcinoma P19 cell aggregates treated with retinoic acid (RA) sequentially differentiate into neurons and astrocytes, whereas attached cells develop a mesodermal phenotype. The expression of calcitonin (CT) and PTH/PTH-related protein (PTHrP) receptors was investigated in embryonic cells, and during neural and mesodermal differentiation. In embryonic P19 cells, specific binding of [125I]salmon (s) CT(1-32) ([125I]sCT(1-32)) was 56 fmol/mg protein, and of [125I]chicken (ch) [Tyr36]PTHrP(1-36) amide ([125I]chPTHrP(1-36)) < 0.5 fmol/mg protein. Correspondingly, cAMP was maximally stimulated 47-fold by sCT(1-32) (EC50 0.05 nM) and 3-fold by chPTHrP(1-36) (EC50 1.3 nM). Receptor autoradiography revealed specific binding of [125I]sCT(1-32) to the undifferentiated P19 cells, but not to RA induced neurons and astrocytes. At the same time, [125I]sCT(1-32) binding and cAMP accumulation by sCT were gradually decreased. But, specific binding of [125I]chPTHrP(1-36) was raised at least 6-fold compared with embryonic cells to 3 fmol/mg protein, in parallel with a 10-fold higher maximal cAMP accumulation. A similar, but delayed suppression of CT and stimulation of PTH/PTHrP receptor expression was observed during mesodermal cell differentiation. The results indicate that CT receptors are associated with undifferentiated P19 cells, whereas PTH/PTHrP receptors are expressed in RA induced neural and mesodermal cells.

Abstract
The structure of human parathyroid hormone (PTH) related protein (residues 1-34) containing an Ala substituted for an Ile in position 15 was studied by two-dimensional proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. This mutant retains quite high levels of adenylate cyclase activity based on slightly reduced PTH receptor binding capacity. Three segments of helix were revealed extending from His5 to Lys11, Lys13 to Arg19, and from Phe22 to Thr33/Ala34, with a decided kink between the first two helices around Gly12. N- and C-terminal helices were stabilized by charged and hydrophobic side chain interactions between His5 and Glu30, Asp17 and both His9 and His25, and between Leu8 and Ala29, resulting in a globular molecule occupying a single conformation. While the structure of the entire mid-molecule region differed greatly from the structure of the native peptide, the structure of both N- and C-terminal regions remains essentially unaltered. The residues responsible for initiating signal transduction in the mutant are located in the vicinity of the residues responsible for receptor binding. The C-terminal amphipathic helix forming the receptor binding site exhibits reduced binding as a result of the closely applied N-terminal signal transduction-activating region. Although not contributing directly to receptor binding, the N-terminal region can sterically affect hormone binding through modifications to certain N-terminal side chains.

Abstract
We previously reported that prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) activates phosphatidylcholine-hydrolyzing phospholipase D independently from the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells, and reported that pertussis toxin-sensitive GTP-binding protein (G-protein) is involved in the PGF2 alpha-induced phospholipase D activation. In this study, we examined the effect of retinoic acid (RA) on the phospholipase D activity stimulated by PGF2 alpha in these cells. The pretreatment of RA markedly inhibited the formation of choline induced by PGF2 alpha (10 microM) in a dose-dependent manner in the range between 1 nM and 0.1 microM. This inhibitory effect of RA was dependent on the time of pretreatment up to 8 h. However, RA had little effect on the choline formation induced by NaF, a G-protein activator, or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, an activator of PKC. These results strongly suggest that RA suppresses the phospholipase D activated by PGF2 alpha in osteoblast-like cells and that the effect of RA is exerted at the point between PGF2 alpha receptor and G-protein.

Abstract
Little information is currently known regarding the effects of cytokines and lipopolysaccharides (LPS's) on matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) production by pulp cells in vitro. In this study, human pulp cells (HPC's) and clonal rat pulp cells RPC-C2A were treated with interleukin (IL)-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and LPS for 24 h. Conditioned medium and cell lysates were collected and analyzed by gelatin zymography. RPC-C2A cells treated with IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha displayed elevated levels of MMP's in conditioned medium fractions. LPS's at increasing concentrations had a similar effect. HPC's treated with either cytokines or LPS's had no change in the pattern of MMP's produced or secreted in either cellular or conditioned medium fractions. These studies indicate that the effects of cytokines and LPS's on pulp cells are not identical for cells from different species and requires further investigation to clarify these variations.

Abstract
Effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] on the expression of the parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH-related peptide (rP) receptor protein and mRNA in ROS 17/2.8 cells were studied. Treatment of ROS 17/2.8 cells with 1,25(OH)2D3 caused time- and dose-dependent suppression of PTH/PTHrP receptor number and immunoreactivity. The effects required more than 24 h incubation with 1,25(OH)2D3 and were maximal by 72 h. The cells did not recover their PTH/PTHrP receptors even after 4 days of treatment with control medium. Treatment with low concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D3 (0.1 M) dramatically decreased the PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA levels, which were maximal after 24 h of incubation. The half-life of the PTH/PTHrP receptor transcript, 6-8 h, was similar in control and 1,25(OH)2D3-treated cells, suggesting that 1,25(OH)2D3 acts in controlling transcription of the PTH/PTHrP receptor gene but does not change the degradation rate of the PTH/PTHrP receptor transcripts. These data indicate that 1,25(OH)2D3 has a potent inhibitory effect on the expression of the PTH/PTHrP receptor protein and mRNA in ROS 17/2.8 cells.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN The present study analyzed the restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns of alpha 2(XI) collagen, bone morphogenetic protein-2, alkaline phosphatase, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha genes in patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament. This study investigates the genetic polymorphism of bone-induced factors in patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament and compares it with healthy control subjects. OBJECTIVES To clarify the genetic markers linked to ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament is a genetic disease associated with abnormal calcium metabolism involving the posterior longitudinal ligament. Previous genetic studies have not identified the pathologic mechanism of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament. Histopathologic studies of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament and the animal model, the spinal hyperostotic mouse, have revealed an increase in Type XI collagen and bone morphogenetic protein-2 expression. METHODS Eighteen Japanese patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament and 51 healthy, unrelated control subjects were investigated for the restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns of COL11A2, bone morphogenetic protein-2, alkaline phosphatase, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, genes with various restriction endonucleases. RESULTS The gene frequencies of COL11A2 obtained with BamHl (10.0 kb fragment) and HindIII (19.0 kb fragment) observed in patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament were higher compared with control subjects (0.43 and 0.14, respectively). These differences were statistically significant (BamHl P = 0.018; Hindlll P = 0.046). Two new restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns were detected of the bone morphogenetic protein-2 gene with Mspl and Taql and one already known restriction fragment length polymorphism pattern of the tumor necrosis factor-alpha gene with Ncol. However, they were not significantly different from the control subjects. CONCLUSIONS Seven restriction fragment length polymorphisms of COL11A2 gene were identified. Two of them (BamHl, 10.0/10.0 kb genotype; HindIII, 19.0/19.0 kb genotype) were significantly different in patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament.

Abstract
The cloning of the receptors for PTH, CT and extracellular calcium ions represents a significant advance in the elucidation of the mechanisms through which extracellular calcium ions are regulated. All are members of the superfamily of GPCR, and the inclusion of the Ca2+o-sensing receptor in this superfamily documents that extracellular calcium ions can serve as an extracellular first messenger, in addition to subserving their better known role as a key intracellular second messenger. Furthermore, it has proved possible to identify several human diseases that result from inactivating or activating mutations in the PTH or Ca2+o-sensing receptor. Finally, the availability of these cloned receptors will enable many more studies on structure-function relationships for these receptors as well as clarifying their tissue distribution, regulation and roles in health and disease. It may also be possible to design novel therapeutic agents that permit manipulation of the receptors when their function is abnormal.

Abstract
Systemic hormones and cytokines play important roles in regulating both osteoblast and osteoclast activity. These cytokines can have either positive or negative effects on the growth and differentiation of bone cells. These effects appear to be dependent on the model systems use to assess them, as well as the species tested. In the near future, other autocrine-paracrine factors will be identified that enhance osteoblast and osteoclast activity, and model systems should be available to further delineate their effects on cells in the osteoblast lineage. Use of transgenic mice with genes targeted to the osteoblast and osteoclast may further reveal the mechanisms responsible for the growth and differentiation of these cells, as well as produce immortalized cell lines that more accurately reflect the cell biology of the osteoclast and osteoblast in vivo.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) receptors and the biological response to PTH in osteoblasts have been shown to be influenced by glucocorticoids, growth factors, cytokines or PTH itself. Furthermore, components of extracellular matrix (ECM) appear to regulate the response to PTH as well. We investigated the effects of osteoblast-deposited ECM on PTH-related protein (PTHrP)-stimulated cAMP production, PTHrP binding and PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA in the human osteoblast-like cell line SaOS-2. ECM was laid down by the human osteoblastic cell line MG-63. At confluence, maximal cAMP stimulation induced by 100 nmol/l PTHrP (1-34) was decreased in SaOS-2 cells grown on ECM as compared with cultures on plastic dishes, without any change in PTHrP concentration producing half-maximal stimulation. In contrast, cAMP production stimulated by PGE2 was increased in cells on ECM. Saturable 125I-PTHrP binding (as evaluated by Scatchard plot analysis) was markedly diminished in cells grown on ECM (5,600 +/- 2,010 vs. 20,700 +/- 1,710 binding sites/cell, x +/- S.E.M., P < 0.01, n = 4 experiments), without any significant change in affinity (1.3 +/- 0.4 vs. 2.5 +/- 0.5 nmol/l (NS), in cells on ECM and plastic, respectively). This apparent decrease in membrane receptor density was associated with markedly lower steady state PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA levels as assessed by Northern blot analysis (ECM/control: 0.4 +/- 0.1). A difference in PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA levels between cells on ECM or on plastic dishes was detectable by 8 hours but not by 4 hours, after seeding the cells at high density. By 24 hours after plating, PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA levels were maximally decreased in cells on ECM. These results in the human osteoblast-like cell line SaOS-2 indicate that PTH/PTHrP receptors are down-regulated by growth on ECM. Thus, attachment of bone cells to bone surface could influence differentiation and function of osteoblasts.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) has been shown to play an important role in local control of bone remodeling. The interaction of TNF-alpha and PTH was evaluated in UMR-106-01 cells, a phenotypic osteoblastic osteosarcoma cell line. We examined the influence of TNF-alpha on the two signal transduction systems triggered by PTH in UMR-106-01 cells, adenylate cyclase and free cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i). cAMP generation was inhibited in TNF-alpha-pretreated cells by 69, 61, 34, and 21% at PTH concentrations of 0.1, 1, 10, and 100 nM, respectively. Inhibition was seen at TNF-alpha doses of 100-1500 units/ml after a minimum incubation time of 12 h. TNF-alpha inhibition of the PTH-stimulated increase in [Ca2+]i was even more pronounced: treated cells showed no change in baseline [Ca2+]i after stimulation with 40 nM PTH. Treatment with TNF-alpha was also found to inhibit both arms of the PTH response in the nontransformed osteoblastic cell line, MC3T3-E1. TNF-alpha treatment did not alter cAMP generation in response to PGE2. TNF-alpha inhibition of the PTH-stimulated cAMP response was reversed completely by addition of cholera toxin (5 micrograms/ml) and partially by forskolin (10 microM) but not pertussis toxin (100 and 500 ng/ml). Scatchard analysis using PTHrP revealed that TNF-alpha treatment reduced the number of receptors but had no effect on KD. These findings suggest that TNF-alpha inhibits the osteoblastic response to PTH at least in part because of a reduction in receptor number. Further investigation is indicated to provide insight into the interaction of calciotropic hormones and cytokines in vivo.

Abstract
We investigated the effects of retinoic acid (RA) on the signalling pathways by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. The pretreatment with RA significantly inhibited the formation of inositol phosphates induced by 10 microM PGE2 in a dose-dependent manner in the range between 0.1 nM and 0.1 microM, without affecting protein contents in the cultured cells. This effect of RA was dependent on the time of pretreatment up to 8 h. However, RA had little effect on the formation of inositol phosphates induced by NaF, a GTP-binding protein activator. On the other hand, RA significantly inhibited PGE2-induced cAMP accumulation in a dose-dependent manner between 0.1 nM and 0.1 microM. This effect of RA was dependent on the time of pretreatment up to 8 h. RA also inhibited the cAMP accumulation induced by NaF or forskolin which directly activates adenylate cyclase. These results strongly suggest that RA modulates the signalling by PGE2 in osteoblast-like cells as follows: the inhibitory effect on the phosphoinositide hydrolysis is exerted at the point between PGE2 receptor and GTP-binding protein, and the inhibitory effect on the cAMP production is exerted at a point downstream from adenylate cyclase.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a multifunctional cytokine which has excited and fascinated numerous investigators and commercial entities due to its promise as a therapeutic agent against cancer and as a target for drugs treating septic shock. TNF is a protein having cytotoxic, cytostatic, immunomodulatory as well as several other activities and is also involved in septic shock. This review covers the structure of TNF and its receptors, various in vitro activities and in vivo activities based on studies in animal model systems. The role of TNF as an anticancer therapeutic agent, based on various phase I and phase II clinical studies, has also been considered. The review concludes with several considerations for increasing the therapeutic utility of TNF in terms of targeting, toxicity and half-life.

Abstract
The effects of the monokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) and interleukin 1 (IL 1) on parathyroid hormone (PTH)-responsive adenylate cyclase were examined in clonal rat osteosarcoma cells (UMR-106) with the osteoblast phenotype. Recombinant TNF and IL 1 incubated with UMR-106 cells for 48 hr each produced concentration-dependent inhibition of PTH-sensitive adenylate cyclase, with maximal inhibition of PTH response (40% for TNF, 24% for IL 1) occurring at 10(-8) M of either monokine. Both monokines also decreased adenylate cyclase stimulation by the tumor-derived PTH-related protein (PTHrP). In contrast, TNF and IL 1 had little or no inhibitory effect on receptor-mediated stimulation of adenylate cyclase by isoproterenol and nonreceptor-mediated enzyme activation by cholera toxin and forskolin; both monokines increased prostaglandin E2 stimulation of adenylate cyclase. Binding of the radioiodinated agonist mono-[125I]-[Nle8,18, Tyr34]bPTH-(1-34)NH2 to UMR-106 cells in the presence of increasing concentrations of unlabeled [Nle8,18, Tyr34]bPTH-(1-34)NH2 revealed a decline in PTH receptor density (Bmax) without change in receptor binding affinity (dissociation constant, Kd) after treatment with TNF or IL 1. Pertussis toxin increased PTH-sensitive adenylate cyclase activity but did not attenuate monokine-induced inhibition of PTH response. In time course studies, brief (1 hr) exposure of cells to TNF or IL 1 during early culture was sufficient to decrease PTH response but only after exposed cells were subsequently allowed to grow for prolonged periods. Inhibition of PTH response by monokines was blocked by cycloheximide. The results indicate that TNF and IL 1 impair responsiveness to PTH (and PTHrP) by a time- and protein synthesis-dependent down-regulation of PTH receptors linked to adenylate cyclase.
