Osthole Stimulates Osteoblast Differentiation and Bone Formation by Activation of β-Catenin–BMP Signaling
Osteoporosis is defined as reduced bone mineral density with a high risk of fragile fracture. Current available treatment regimens include antiresorptive drugs such as estrogen receptor analogues and bisphosphates and anabolic agents such as parathyroid hormone (PTH). However, neither option is completely satisfactory because of adverse effects. It is thus highly desirable to identify novel ana...
متن کاملCalycosin-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside stimulates osteoblast differentiation through regulating the BMP/WNT signaling pathways
The isoflavone calycosin-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (CG) is a principal constituent of Astragalus membranaceus (AR) and has been reported to inhibit osteoclast development in vitro and bone loss in vivo. The aim of this study was to investigate the osteogenic effects of CG and its underlying mechanism in ST2 cells. The results show that exposure of cells to CG in osteogenic differentiation medium ...
متن کاملBmp Induces Osteoblast Differentiation through both Smad4 and mTORC1 Signaling.
The bone morphogenetic protein (Bmp) family of secreted molecules has been extensively studied in the context of osteoblast differentiation. However, the intracellular signaling cascades that mediate the osteoblastogenic function of Bmp have not been fully elucidated. By profiling mRNA expression in the bone marrow mesenchymal progenitor cell line ST2, we discover that BMP2 induces not only gen...
متن کاملPDZRN3 Negatively Regulates BMP-2–induced Osteoblast Differentiation through Inhibition of Wnt Signaling
PDZRN3 is a member of the PDZ domain-containing RING finger family of proteins. We previously showed that PDZRN3 is essential for the differentiation of C2C12 mouse mesenchymal progenitor cells into myotubes. Mesenchymal progenitor cells differentiate into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and adipocytes in addition to myotubes, and we have now examined the potential role of PDZRN3 in the differentiat...
متن کاملProtein Palmitoylation Regulates Osteoblast Differentiation through BMP-Induced Osterix Expression
Osteoporosis is one of the most common diseases and can be treated by either anti-resorption drugs, anabolic drugs, or both. To search for anabolic drug targets for osteoporosis therapy, it is crucial to understand the biology of bone forming cells, osteoblasts, in terms of their proliferation, differentiation, and function. Here we found that protein palmitoylation participates in signaling pa...
