Parathyroid hormone-related protein regulates osteoclast inhibitory lectin expression via multiple signaling pathways in osteoblast-like cells.

摘要

Osteoclast inhibitory lectin (OCIL) is a recently identified inhibitor of osteoclast formation. A variety of osteotropic factors regulate OCIL expression in osteoblastic cells, however, little information is available to date concerning how this gene is controlled. Using real-time RT-PCR, we examined the regulation of OCIL expression by PTHrp and the signaling pathways used. We demonstrated in rat osteoblast-like UMR-106 cells, rat calvarial primary osteoblastic cells, and murine MC3T3-E1 cells, PTHrp(1-34) increased OCIL expression. In UMR-106 cells, the increase began and reached maximum later than RANKL induction and OPG suppression. cAMP/PKA signaling activators PTH(1-31), forskolin and dibutyryl cAMP (db-cAMP), and calcium ionophore A23187 all increased OCIL levels. In contrast, PKC activator phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate reduced OCIL expression in short term but induced OCIL mRNA in long term. PKA inhibitor KT5720, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade inhibitor PD98059, calmodulin antagonist W-7, and Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMK II) inhibitor KN-62 all significantly blunted PTHrp-stimulated OCIL expression. Moreover, PD98059 blocked the stimulation of OCIL by FSK or db-cAMP but not that by A23187. In primarily cultured osteoblasts, the PTHrp induction of OCIL was blocked by KT5720, W-7, and PD98059 as well. The data established that PTHrp(1-34) regulates OCIL expression in vitro through cAMP/PKA, Ca(2+)/CaMK II, and MAPK signaling pathways.
