The small molecule phenamil induces osteoblast differentiation and mineralization.
Stimulation of osteoblast differentiation from mesenchymal stem cells is a potential strategy for bone repair. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) that induce osteoblastic differentiation have been successfully used in humans to treat fractures. Here we outline a new approach to the stimulation of osteoblast differentiation using small molecules that stimulate BMP activity. We have identified th...
متن کاملTreatment of icariin promotes osteoblast MC3T3-E1 proliferation and differentiation in vitro, potentially owing to its role in increasing BMP-2 protein expression. Icariin
Previous studies suggest that icariin has anabolic effects on bone, but the mechanisms are unknown. We aimed to investigate the osteogenic effects of icariin in an undifferentiated osteoblast cell line by detecting cell morphology, viability, cell cycling and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) expression. We treated pre-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells with different concentrations of icariin [0 (...
متن کاملHigh dose 1,25(OH)2D3 inhibits osteoblast mineralization in vitro.
Vitamin D is essential for optimal calcium absorption needed for maintaining normal bone mineral density (BMD). Consequently, vitamin D-deficiency leads to poorly mineralized bone with diminished strength and load bearing capacity. Surprisingly, several animal and clinical studies have identified suppressive effects of high dose vitamin D suppleme...
متن کاملIrisin Enhances Osteoblast Differentiation In Vitro
It has been recently demonstrated that exercise activity increases the expression of the myokine Irisin in skeletal muscle, which is able to drive the transition of white to brown adipocytes, likely following a phenomenon of transdifferentiation. This new evidence supports the idea that muscle can be considered an endocrine organ, given its ability to target adipose tissue by promoting energy e...
متن کاملSurface properties and ion release from fluoride-containing bioactive glasses promote osteoblast differentiation and mineralization in vitro.
Bioactive glasses (BG) are suitable for bone regeneration applications as they bond with bone and can be tailored to release therapeutic ions. Fluoride, which is widely recognized to prevent dental caries, is efficacious in promoting bone formation and preventing osteoporosis-related fractures when administered at appropriate doses. To take advantage of these properties, we created BG incorpora...
