Objective : We studied the effect of Bambusae concretio Silicea (BCS) on bone metabolism. Methods : At first, we treated PTH, 1,25(OH)₂D₃, mononuclear cell conditioned medium (MCM) and IL-1 to osteoblast cells derived from mouse calvarial bone explants in vitro, and then investigated the activities of collagenolysis and bone resorption factors. Results : BCS extracts have no cytotoxicities in concentrations of 1-150 ㎍/ml. BCS had protective activity against PTH (5 units/ml), MCM (5%, v/v), 1,25(OH)₂D₃ (20 ng/ml), IL-1α(2 ng/ml) and IL-1β, (1 ng/ml)-induced collagenolysis in the mouse calvarial cells. And, pretreatment of BCS for 1 hr significantly reduced the collagenolysis. Furthermore, it was much more expressed at 16 hrs after BCS (50 ㎍/ml)-pretreatment. And, BCS significantly protected against enhanced collagenolysis induced by IL-1α and IL-1β. Conclusion : BCS extracts inhibited the bone resorption in mouse calvarial bone cell;, thus BCS could be used clinically for bone diseases.

Cyclosporin A(CsA) is an immunosuppressive agent widely used for preventing graft rejecting response in organ transplantation. The basic properties of CsA to osteoblast has not been well known yet. A better understanding of the mechanisms of CsA function on bone could provide valuable information regarding basic properties of bone remodeling, pharmacotherapeutic intervention in metabolic bone disease, and the consequences of immunosuppression in bone physiology. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of CsA on osteoblast by evaluating parameters of proliferation, collagen synthetic activity, alkaline phosphatase activity, and ALP mRNA expression in mouse calvarial cell. 1. CsA ($3{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) treated mouse calvarial cell showed statistically significant increase in cell proliferation.(P<0.05) 2. CsA($1,\; 3{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) treated MC3T3 cell line showed statistically significant increase in cell proliferation. 3. The amount of collagen of CsA($3{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) treated mouse calvarial cell was decreased statistically significantly. 4. Alkaline phosphatase activity was increased statistically significantly in CsA treated group($1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$). 5. mRNA expression of ALP was increased in CsA treated group These results suggest that CsA could affect bone remodeling by modulating proliferation & differentiation of osteoblast.

Germination is well-known to enhance the digestibility, functionality, and palatability of plant seeds. To examine the functionality of germinated-safflower seed (GSS), proliferative and differentiative effects of GSS extract on the mouse calvarial bone cells were determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolinbromide (MTT) assay and alkaline phosphatase activity, respectively. Water extract of GSS increased dose-dependently proliferative and differentiative effects on calvarial bone cell, and its effects were stronger than those of ungerminated-safflower seeds (UGSS) extract. One major component was isolated from GSS extract by a series of purification procedure of solvent fractionation, Diaion HP-20, and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatographies. Its chemical structure was identified as trachelogenin (TC) by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry (MS) spectral analysis. Trachelogenin showed significant proliferative (125.7%) and differentiative (132.1%) effects on calvarial bone cells at $10^{-8}M$, and its effects were significantly higher than those of $17{\beta}-estradiol\;(E_2)$. TC was found to be a major active compound responsible for high proliferative and differentative effects of the water extract of GSS. Therefore, these results suggest that TC in GSS may be useful as potential therapeutic agent for the prevention and treatment of bone loss.

생쥐의 calvarial osteoblast세포를 분리배양하여 gelatinase생성여부를 골흡수과정에서의 역할을 규명하기 위하여 SDS-PAGE-zymography분석을 한 결과 progelatinase-A를 항속적으로 합성하고 있음을 확인하였다. 생쥐의 osteoblasts를 골재흡수 약물인 PTH, $1,25(OH)_2D_3$, 단핵구배양액 (MCM) 그리고 IL-1으로 자극시키면 gelatinase생산을 촉진하여 콜라겐분해가 증가되었으나, indomethacin과 dexamethasone은 생쥐의 osteoblastic세포의 collagenolysis를 저해하였다. 한편, 골재흡수에 IL-1을 생쥐태아 유래의 장골조직배양 (fetal mouse long bone organ culture)에 처리하자 IL-1 은 골재흡수를 촉진하였다. 더우기, $IL-1{\alpha}$의 농도의존성에 대한 indomethacin과 dexametasone의 영향을 검토한 결과 직선형의 비례커브로 영향을 미쳤다. 이러한 골대사의 지견을 바탕으로 대영전-자하거의 열수추출물의 시험관내 독성검사에서 $1-200\;{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서는 독성이 없었으며, 또한, $300\;{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서도 생쥐의 calvarial골에는 독성이 없었다. 대영전-자하거 extract는 PTH (2 units/ml), MCM (5%, v/v), $rhIL-1{\alpha}$ (1 ng/ml) $1,25(OH)_2D_3$ (10 ng/ml)처리에 대해서 그리고 $IL-1{\alpha}$와 $IL-1{\beta}$-유발 collagenolysis에 대해서도 보호효과가 있었다. 대영전-자하거extract을 1시간동안 전처리와 후처리에서 콜라겐분해에 약간의 보호활성이 있었으며 $IL-1{\alpha}$와 $IL-1{\beta}$에 의해 유발되는 콜라겐분해에 보호활성이 보였다. 1시간동안 전처리는 콜라겐분해를 감소시키며, 대영전-자하거 extract는 gelatinase효소를 저해하였으며 PTH, $1,25(OH)_2D_3$, $IL-1{\beta}$ 및 $IL-1{\alpha}$로 유발된 효소활성화가 저해되었다. 즉, 대영전-자하거 extracts는 $IL-1{\alpha}-$와 $IL-1{\beta}$에 의해 촉진되는 골재흡수에 효과적이었으며, 비스테로이드성 항염증제제 (indomethacin 과 dexamethasone)에 의한 골재흡수방지 효과와 유사하였다. 이러한 결과는 대영전-자하거extract가 골다공증치료에 효과적임을 나타내는 것이다.

한방에서 건강골(建强骨)시키는 효능이 있는 5가지 약물(골쇄보(骨碎補), 상기생(桑寄生), 김모구척(金毛狗脊), 별갑(別甲), 법파고지(法破古紙))로 구성된 처방(CEDR로 약칭)으로 실험을 하였다. 생쥐의 calvarial osteoblast를 분리하고 배양한 후 실험을 행하였는데, 골 재흡수 인자인 PTH, $1,25(OH)_2D_3$, $TNF-\alpha$, IL-1에 자극받은 osteoblasts는 활동적인 gelatinase를 생산하므로서 collagen 용해를 증가시켰다. 암컷 생쥐의 long bone organ을 culture하여 골 재흡수를 자극하는 IL-1를 실험한 결과, IL-1은 골의 재흡수를 자극하였으며 동시에 존재해있을 때에는 뚜렷한 재흡수를 보였다. 더욱이, indomethacin과 dexamethasone이 $IL-1{\alpha}$의 투여량 증가에 대한 영향을 관찰하였을 때에는 indomethacin과 dexamethasone은 IL-1의 투여량에 대한 곡선 그래프를 오른쪽으로 이동시켰다. 시험관내에서 세포 독성에 대하여 관찰하였을 때, CEDR추출물은 $1-60{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 아무런 세포 독성이 나타나지 않았으며, 뿐만 아니라 생쥐의 두개골 세포에서는 $120{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서 전혀 세포독성이 관찰되지 않았다. CEDR 추출물은 생쥐의 calvarial cells에서 PTH (5 units/ml), $IL-1{\alpha}$ (1 ng/ml), $TNF-\alpha$, $1,25(OH)_2D_3$ (20 ng/ml) 및 $IL-1{\alpha}$, $IL-1{\beta}$에 유도되는 collagen 용해를 보호하는 효과가 있었다. CEDR 추출물을 1시간동안 전처리하였을 때, 그 자체로는 세포 생존에 영향이 없었으며, collagen 용해를 증가시키지도 않았으며 전처치로 collagen 용해를 유의성있게 감소시키지도 않았다. 게다가, 추출물은 $IL-1{\alpha}$와 $IL-1{\beta}$에 의해 유도되는 collagen 용해를 방지하는 효과가 있었다. 1시간 동안 전처리로 한 결과, collagen 용해를 유의성있게 감소시켰다. 흥미로운 것은 CEDR 추출물이 gelatinase 활성과 PTH, $1,25(OH)_2D_3$, $TNF-\alpha$, $IL-1{\beta}$ 및 $IL-1{\alpha}$의 재흡수 인자에 유도되어 진행되는 활성을 억제하였으며, CEDR 전처리시에는 강력한 보호 효과를 나타내었다. CEDR 추출물은 $IL-1{\alpha}$와 $IL-1{\beta}$에 자극되는 골 재흡수를 억제하는 효과를 나타내였으며, 또한 농도를 다양하게 한 CEDR의 전처리시에는 유의성이 있었다. Indomethacin과 dexamethasone의 비 스테로이드성 항 염증 인자에 의한 IL-1에 자극받은 골 재흡수를 억제하는 정도와 현상은 CEDR 추출물을 생쥐의 두개골 배양 시스템에 적용시켜 얻은 결과와 유사하였다. 이러한 결과들로 보건데, CEDR 추출물은 임상적으로 골다공증의 치료에 매우 안정적으로 적용할 수 있음을 제시하고 있다.

The goal of periodontal treatment is not only to arrest the progression of the disease but also to promote the functional, esthetic regeneration of the periodontium. Flap operation, bone graft, guided tissue regeneration, growth factors and bone morphogenetic protein have been used for this purpose. Among these techniques of regeneration, alloplastic graft, especially calcium phosphate is getting more attention recently. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of calcium phosphate glass on mouse calvarial cell in vitro. The toxicity of calcium phosphate glass was measured using MTT assay, the synthesis of collagen was measured using collagen assay, and ALP activity was measured. The experimental groups were cultured with calcium phosphate glass(both AQ-, and HT-CPG) in concentration of 0.01, 0.02, 0.1, 0.2g/ml. The results are as follows 1. In concentrations not exceeding 0.02g/ml, both the groups(AQ-CPG, HT-CPG) didn't show any toxicity on mouse calvarial cell(p<0.05). 2. In both the experimental groups are the concentration of 0.02g/ml, collagen expressions were significantly up-regulated (p<0.05). 3. In both the experimental groups are the concentration of 0.02g/ml, ALP activity was not significantly up-regulated, but ALP activity in both experimental groups were greater than control group(p<0.05). The results suggested that the use of calcium phosphate glass may promotes periodontal regeneration. Ongoing studies are necessary in order to determine their regeneration effects.

This study was designed to evaluate the influence of fibroblasts or connective tissue from mouse oral mucosa on differentiation of neonatal mouse calvaria-derived osteoblasts and mineralization of bone nodules. Primary cell cultures from mouse calvarial osteoblasts and 2-4 passaged fibroblasts from oral mucosa were co-cultured in monolayer cultures, devided into 6 experimental group according to cell density or cell confluency. Osteoblasts were also co-cultured with fibroblasts in $Transwell^{(R)}$ culture plate with different co-cultured period according to osteoblast differentiation. The alkaline phosphatase activity were measured in monolayer cultures and cultures using $Transwell^{(R)}$. The mineralized bone nodules were presented by Von Kossa staining and density of mineralized nodules was measured by image analysis. The connective tissues with or without osteoblast seeding were cultured and examined histologically by Von Kossa and Trichrome Goldner staining. The results were as follows; 1. Prolonged maturation of matrix and delayed mineralization of bone nodules were resulted in monolayer cultures. 2. Co-culture of fibroblast with osteoblast using $Transwell^{(R)}$ during osteoblast proliferation stage stimulated proliferation of osteoblasts and increased alkaline phosphatase activity and mineralization of bone nodules. 3. Co-culture of fibroblast with osteoblast using $Transwell^{(R)}$ during matrix mineralization stage decreased and delayed mineralization of bone nodules. 4. In vitro cultured connective tissue with osteoblast seeding resulted in proliferation of osteoblasts and matrix formation with mineralization.

In the process of bone remodeling, mineral phase of bone is dissolved by osteoclasts, resulting in elevation of calcium concentration in micro-environment. This study was performed to explore the effect of high extracellular calcium ($Ca{^{2+}}_e$) on mineralized nodule formation and on the expression of progressive ankylosis (Ank), plasma cell membrane glycoprotein-1 (PC-1) and osteopontin by primary cultured mouse calvarial cells. Osteoblastic differentiation and mineralized nodule formation was induced by culture of mouse calvarial cells in osteoblast differentiation medium containing ascorbic acid and ${\beta}$-glycerophosphate. Although Ank, PC-1 and osteopontin are well known inhibitors of mineralization, expression of these genes were induced at the later stage of osteoblast differentiation during when expression of osteocalcin, a late marker gene of osteoblast differentiation, was induced and mineralization was actively progressing. High $Ca{^{2+}}_e$(10 mM) treatment highly enhanced mRNA expression of Ank, PC-1 and osteopontin in the late stage of osteoblast differentiation but not in the early stage. Inhibition of p44/42 MAPK activation but not that of protein kinase C suppressed high $Ca{^{2+}}_{e^-}$induced expression of Ank, PC-1 and osteopontin. When high $Ca{^{2+}}_e$(5 mM or 10 mM) was present in culture medium during when mineral deposition was actively progressing, matrix calcifiation was significantly increased by high $Ca{^{2+}}_e$. This stimulatory effect was abolished by pyrophosphate (5 mM) or levamisole (0.1-0.5 mM), an alkaline phosphatase inhibitor. In addition, probenecid (2mM), an inhibitor of Ank, suppressed matrix calcification in both control and high $Ca{^{2+}}_{e^-}$treated group, suggesting the possible role of Ank in matrix calcification by osteoblasts. Taken together, these results showed that high $Ca{^{2+}}_e$ stimulates expression of Ank, PC-1 and osteopontin as well as matrix calcification in late differentiation stage of osteoblasts and that p44/42 MAPK activation is involved in high $Ca{^{2+}}_{e^-}$induced expression of Ank, PC-1 and osteopontin.

유전자 재조합으로 제조한 사람 $interleukin-1{\beta}$ $(rhIL-1{\beta})$는 생쥐의 calvarial 골세포계에서 분리한 골아세포에 여러 가지 조절기능을 갖는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서 $rhIL-1{\beta}$가 농도의존적으로 골세포에 영향을 주는지 해명하기 위하여 배양된 골아세포의 세포증식과 prostaglandin $E_2$합성 그리고 plasminogen activator활성에 대한 영향을 검토한 결과 이들을 촉진하였다. 그러나 비타민D에 따라 반응하는 골아세포의 특징으로 알려진 osteocalcin생합성과 alkaine phosphatase활성의 유도생성은 $rhIL-1{\beta}$에 의해 오히려 길항적이었다. 이러한 결과는 골세포대사의 병리학적인 조절과정에서 $IL-1{\beta}$가 골다공증의 병리학적 역할을 규명하는 새로운 결과이다. $IL-1{\beta}$에 의한 골흡수현상이 생쥐의 calvarial골세포에서 calcitonin처리로 크게 억제되어, 결과적으로 이러한 결과는 $IL-1{\beta}$에 의해 유발되는 골재흡수란 osteoclast에 의한다는 사실을 시사하였다. 한편, 한방에서 골다공증치료와 예방에 사용되는 대영전-자하거추출물의 기능을 해명하기 위하여, $IL-1{\beta}$-유발 $PGE_2$합성만을 특이적으로 저해하였다. 또한, 대영전-자하거 extract을 1시간 동안 여러 가지 농도로 전처리하고 다음으로 $PGE_2$-유도시약을 처리한 결과, $PGE_2$합성을 억제하였으며 동시에 $IL-1{\beta}$에 의해 유도된 plasminogen 의존적인 fibrinolysis을 억제하는 보호효과가 인정되었다. 한편, calcitonin처리가 $IL-1{\beta}$-촉진 골재흡수에 대한 저해활성을 보였으며 이러한 결과들은 calcitonin과 대영전-자하거 extract이 osteoclast매개성 골재흡수의 억제에 핵심적인 역할을 함을 시사하며 한방치료제로서의 근거를 제시하였다고 사료된다.
