Parathyroid hormone modulates transforming growth factor beta activity and binding in osteoblast-enriched cell cultures from fetal rat parietal bone.
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) is produced by bone cells, is abundant in bone matrix, and regulates bone cell biochemical processes. In osteoblast-enriched fetal rat parietal bone cell cultures, low TGF-beta doses increase DNA synthesis, whereas higher levels are less mitogenic, stimulate collagen production, and decrease alkaline phosphatase activity. Parathyroid hormone by itself ...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor beta is a bifunctional regulator of replication and collagen synthesis in osteoblast-enriched cell cultures from fetal rat bone.
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) stimulates cell replication in fetal rat calvariae, and studies with isolated bone cells suggest that the primary mitogenically responsive cell is of the osteoblast lineage. The effect of TGF beta on bone cell replication is biphasic and depends on both the TGF beta concentration and cell density in monolayer culture. After 23 h of treatment, DNA synth...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor binding proteins localize to discrete cell culture compartments in periosteal and osteoblast cultures from fetal rat bone.
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and IGF-II are expressed at biologically effective levels by bone cells. Their stability and activity are modulated by coexpression of IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs). Secreted IGFBPs may partition to soluble, cell-associated, and matrix-bound compartments. Extracellular localization may sequester, store, or present IGFs to appropriate receptors. Of the six IGFB...
متن کاملEffects of static magnetic fields on bone formation in rat osteoblast cultures.
Although the promotional effects on osteoblasts of pulsed electromagnetic fields have been well-demonstrated, the effects of static magnetic fields (SMF) remain unclear; nevertheless, magnets have been clinically used as a 'force source' in various orthodontic treatments. We undertook the present investigation to study the effects of SMF on osteoblastic differentiation, proliferation, and bone ...
متن کاملEffects of tanshinol on markers of bone turnover in ovariectomized rats and osteoblast cultures
This study was aimed to explore the role of tanshinol in osteoblastic cells, and the role in vivo using an ovariectomized (OVX) rat model of osteoporosis. MC3T3-E1 cells were pretreated with 0-400 μg/mL tanshinol, and then cell viability, apoptosis, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and the expressions of Collagen Type I Alpha 1 (Col1A1), Runt Related Transcription Factor 2 (Runx2) and osteoc...
