چکیده

Osteoclasts are derived from hematopoietic precursor cells belonging to the monocyte/macrophage lineage. Osteoclast development has been reported to be regulated by several molecules such as macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), receptor activator of nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB ligand (RANKL), and a decoy receptor of RANKL, osteoprotegerin (OPG). Recently, it was demonstrated that the Notch signaling pathway regulates myeloid differentiation and antagonizes cell fate determination, however, the effect of Notch signaling on the osteoclast lineage has not been reported. In this study, we examined the effect of signaling via Notch receptors on the differentiation into osteoclasts by using cells from the bone marrow, spleen, and peritoneal cavity, and a cloned macrophagelike cell line. Osteoclastogenesis was inhibited by an immobilized Notch ligand, Delta-1. The dish-adherent bone marrow cells precultured with M-CSF expressed both Mac-1 and M-CSF receptors, c-Fms; osteoclastogenesis of these cells was efficiently inhibited. The immobilized Delta-1 also down-regulated the surface c-Fms expression, while the c-Fms gene expression was not changed. Genes for Notch receptors and Notch ligands are expressed in not only hematopoietic cells but also stromal cells that support osteoclast development. Constitutively active Notch1-transfected stromal cells showed increased expression of RANKL and OPG genes, and strong inhibition of M-CSF gene expression, resulting in reduction of their ability to support osteoclast development. Taken together, these findings indicate that Notch signaling affects both osteoclast precursors and stromal cells and thereby negatively regulates osteoclastogenesis.

Notch signaling drives multiple myeloma induced osteoclastogenesis

Multiple myeloma (MM) is closely associated with bone destruction. Once migrated to the bone marrow, MM cells unbalance bone formation and resorption via the recruitment and maturation of osteoclast precursors. The Notch pathway plays a key role in different types of cancer and drives several biological processes relevant in MM, including cell localization within the bone marrow, proliferation,...

Modulation of osteoclast differentiation and function by the new members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor and ligand families.

Osteoblasts/stromal cells are essentially involved in osteoclast differentiation and function through cell-to-cell contact (Fig. 8). Although many attempts have been made to elucidate the mechanism of the so-called "microenvironment provided by osteoblasts/stromal cells," (5-8) it has remained an open question until OPG and its binding molecule were cloned. The serial discovery of the new membe...

Development of osteoclasts from embryonic stem cells through a pathway that is c-fms but not c-kit dependent.

Osteoclasts are hematopoietic cells essential for bone resorption. To study the derivation of these interesting cells, we developed a stepwise culture system where stromal cells promote embryonic stem (ES) cells to differentiate into mature osteoclasts. Three phases to this differentiation process include (1) induction of hematopoiesis, along with the generation of osteoclast precursors, (2) ex...

Combination of IL-6 and sIL-6R differentially regulate varying levels of RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis through NF-κB, ERK and JNK signaling pathways

Interleukin (IL)-6 is known to indirectly enhance osteoclast formation by promoting receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) production by osteoblastic/stromal cells. However, little is known about the direct effect of IL-6 on osteoclastogenesis. Here, we determined the direct effects of IL-6 and its soluble receptor (sIL-6R) on RANKL-induced osteoclast formation by osteoclas...

Notch is activated in RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and resorption.

The process of osteoclast differentiation and resorption is fine-tuned by signal pathways, which need to be further elucidated. The aim of this study was to explore the possible connections between NF-kappaB and Notch in RANKL-induced osteoclast activity. To this end, RANKL was used to stimulate mouse osteoclast precursor cell line RAW264.7. The number of multinucleated TRAP+ osteoclasts was co...
