Fluoride Increases Superoxide Production and Impairs the Respiratory Chain in ROS 17/2.8 Osteoblastic Cells

چکیده
It is known that fluoride produces oxidative stress. Inflammation in bone tissue and an impairment of the respiratory chain of liver have been described in treatments with fluoride. Whether the impairment of the respiratory chain and oxidative stress are related is not known. The aim of this work was to study the effects of fluoride on the production of superoxide radical, the function of the respiratory chain and the increase in oxidative stress in ROS 17/2.8 osteoblastic cells. We measured the effect of fluoride (100 µM) on superoxide production, oxygen consumption, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzymes activities of cultured cells following the treatment with fluoride. Fluoride decreased oxygen consumption and increased superoxide production immediately after its addition. Furthermore, chronic treatment with fluoride increased oxidative stress status in osteoblastic cells. These results indicate that fluoride could damage bone tissue by inhibiting the respiratory chain, increasing the production of superoxide radicals and thus of the others reactive oxygen species.

Lead increases free Ca2+ concentration in cultured osteoblastic bone cells: simultaneous detection of intracellular free Pb2+ by 19F NMR.
Lead (Pb) has been shown to perturb Ca-mediated cellular processes. However, to date, a direct effect of Pb on intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) has not been demonstrated. 19F NMR in combination with 1,2-bis(2-amino-5-fluorophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (5F-BAPTA) was used to simultaneously measure [Ca2+]i and intracellular free Pb2+ concentration ([Pb2+]i) in the rat ...

We recently defined an element (ACTAATTGG) within the rat osteocalcin (OC) promoter at -84 to -92 which provides approximately 70% of basal promoter activity in osteoblastic cell lines and binds a specific nuclear factor found in OC-producing ROS 17/2.8 osteosarcoma cells. Since this element closely resembles the recently described Msx-1 (Hox 7.1) homeodomain DNA binding cognate, we examined ro...

Six days of microgravity (Bion10 mission) induced dramatic shape changes in ROS 17/2.8 osteoblasts (7). During the Foton 11 and 12 space flights, we studied the kinetics (0-4 days) of ROS 17/2.8 morphology and adhesion, the relationships between adhesion and cell cycle progression after 4 days in space, and osteoblastic growth and activity after 6 days in space. Quantitative analysis of high-re...
متن کاملDevelopment of 19F NMR for measurement of [Ca2+]i and [Pb2+]i in cultured osteoblastic bone cells.
Lead (Pb) has been shown to perturb cellular calcium (Ca) homeostasis, altering sizes and flux rates of cellular pools of exchangeable Ca and impairing Ca-mediated cell processes. To date, however, a direct effect of Pb on intracellular-free Ca2+ has not yet been demonstrated. Heavy metals bind to the commonly used fluorescent Ca ion indicators with greater affinity than does Ca and thereby int...
متن کاملInduction of NO and prostaglandin E2 in osteoblasts by wall-shear stress but not mechanical strain.
The nature of the stimulus sensed by bone cells during mechanical usage has not yet been determined. Because nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin (PG) production appear to be essential early responses to mechanical stimulation in vivo, we used their production to compare the responsiveness of bone cells to strain and fluid flow in vitro. Cells were incubated on polystyrene film and subjected to ...
