Cytoskeleton reorganization and FAK phosphorylation are involved in lanthanum(Ⅲ)-promoted proliferation and differentiation in rat osteoblasts

The effect of lanthanum ion(La3+)on osteoblast function and cytoskeleton is assessed in vitro. Osteoblasts were isolated from Snraeuo-tjawiey tetai neonatal rats.Cell proliferation and gene expression levels of cbfa-1,alkaline phosphatase(ALP),osteocalcin(OC),bone sialo-protein(BSP)and osteopontin(OPN)were examined by cell counting and RT-PCR.Cytoskeleton F-actin was stained with rhodamine-con-jugated phalloidin and was visualized by a confocal microscope.As the results,10-8-10-4M La3+-induced osteoblast proliferation on day2.Data from the RT-PCR assay revealed that 10-6 M La3+ up-regulated the expression levels of ALP,BSP,and cbfa-lon day 4,while it enhanced the expressions of OC and OPN on day 21.The F-actin cytoskeleton was strengthened and reorganized under the exposure of La3+.In addition,the phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase(FAK)was significantly promoted in 24 h evaluated by Western blot analysis.These findings indi-sate that La 3+ promotes osteoblast activity through the phosphorylation of F AK and reorganization of the cytoskeleton.

不同诱导条件对树鼩骨髓间充质干细胞向成骨细胞分化的影响

目的 探讨不同诱导条件对树鼩骨髓间充质干细胞（BM-MSCs）体外向成骨细胞分化的影响。方法 取 P3代树鼩骨髓间充质干细胞分成7组进行诱导。A组：高糖DMEM+1μmol/L地塞米松+100μmol/L维生素C+10 mmol/Lβ-磷酸甘油钠;B组：高糖 DMEM+50 ng/mL BMP-2;C组：高糖 DMEM+80 ng/mL BMP-2;D组：高糖DMEM+50μmol/L维生素C+10 mmol/Lβ-磷酸甘油钠+20ng/m L BMP-2;E组：高糖 DMEM+1μmol/L地塞米松 +100μmol/L维生素C+20 mmol/Lβ-磷酸甘油钠;F组：高糖DMEM+100μmol/L地塞米松+100μmol/L维生素 C+10 mmol/Lβ-磷酸甘油钠;G组：DMEM/F12+0.1μmol/L地塞米松 +50μmol/L维生素C+10 mmol/Lβ-磷酸甘油钠。诱导18 d后进行碱性磷酸酶和茜素红染色鉴定其诱导分化情况。结果 每一组碱性磷酸酶染色呈不同程度的阳性,茜素红染色可在A、B、C、D和E组观察到明显矿化结节。结论 A组、B组、C组、D组和 E组可以诱导树鼩BM-MSCs向成骨细胞分化,其中以A组和B组效果最为突出。     

Cytoskeleton reorganization and FAK phosphorylation are involved in lanthanum （Ⅲ）-promoted proliferation and differentiation in rat osteoblasts

The effect of lanthanum ion (La³⁺) on osteoblast function and cytoskeleton is assessed in vitro. Osteoblasts were isolated from Sprague-Dawley fetal neonatal rats. Cell proliferation and gene expression levels of cbfa-1, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OC), bone sialoprotein (BSP) and osteopontin (OPN) were examined by cell counting and RT-PCR. Cytoskeleton F-actin was stained with rhodamine-conjugated phalloidin and was visualized by a confocal microscope. As the results, 10⁻⁸-10⁻⁴ M La³⁺-induced osteoblast proliferation on day 2. Data from the RT-PCR assay revealed that 10⁻⁶ M La³⁺ up-regulated the expression levels of ALP, BSP, and cbfa-1 on day 4, while it enhanced the expressions of OC and OPN on day 21. The F-actin cytoskeleton was strengthened and reorganized under the exposure of La³⁺. In addition, the phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) was significantly promoted in 24 h evaluated by Western blot analysis. These findings indicate that La³⁺ promotes osteoblast activity through the phosphorylation of FAK and reorganization of the cytoskeleton.
