In the present study, we have demonstrated that taurine could stimulate the production of nitric oxide and the activity of ERK2 (extracellular signal regulated protein kinase or pp42 MAP kinase). Nitric oxide(NO), the product of inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS), is known to be implicated in the metabolism of bone. ERK cascade plays a key role in the gene expression of iNOS in osteoblastic cell. We investigated whether taurine (l-20mM) could stimulate ERK2 activity, nitric oxide production, and inducible nitric oxide synthase in osteoblast-like UMR-106 cells. Nitric oxide was measured spectophotometrically as nitrite and the activation of ERK2 and iNOS was studied using Western 145 blot analysis. Taurine increased the production of nitric oxide in a dose-dependent manner and the effect was reached to a maximum at 10 mM. The activation of iNOS were consistent with NO levels. The tyrosine phosphorylation of ERK2 was increased by taurine in a time-dependent manner. The these result suggest that taurine might stimulate the production of nitric oxide in osteoblast-like cells by the activation of ERK2 and could regulate the metabolism of bone via nitric oxide.

식물성 에스트로겐은 에스트로겐의 대체물질로서 골 형성을 촉진하며, 다른 부작용 없이 폐경기 이후 여성의 골다공증 예방에 효과적인 물질로 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 식물성 에스트로겐의 골 형성과 관련된 생리학적 기능을 확인하고자 식물성 에스트로겐인 genistein, daidzein 및 resveratrol을 각각 $10^{-5}$ M 농도로 세포배양액 에 첨가하여 MC3T3-El 골아세포의 증식과 성장에 미치는 효과를 검토 하였다 그 결과 이들은 에스트로겐인 $17\beta$-estradiol과 마찬가지로 MC3T3-El 골아세포의 증식과 성장을 향상시켰으며, daidzein과 resveratrol의 효과는 genistein의 효과보다 큰 것으로 나타났다 골 형성 정도를 판단하는 생화학적 지표로 활용되고 골아세포의 증식과도 밀접한 관계를 가지는 alkaline phosphatase(ALP) 활성 또한 genistein, daidzein 및 resveratrol에 의해 증가하였다. 에스트로겐은 세포성장인자인 IGF-I의 국소적 생산과 분비를 촉진하며 간접적으로 골 대사 촉진 효과를 유도해낼 수 있다고 보고되어 있었지만 식물성 에스트로겐의 투여에 의해 IGF-I의 농도가 증가하였다는 보고는 없었다. 그러나 본 실험 결과, 식물성 에스트로겐인 genistein, daidzein 및 resveratrol은 IGF-I의 단백질과 mRNA 수준을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과들은 식물성 에스트로겐의 골 형성 촉진 효과를 증명하는 것으로서 이들의 유용한 약리학적 기능을 뒷받침하는 하나의 근거로 활용될 수 있으리라 사료된다.

Secondary metabolites from the fruit body of Phellinus linteus were evaluated for their proliferative effect on human osteoblast-like cells. 3-[4,5-Dimethylthiazole-2-y1]-2,5-diphenyl-tetraxolium bromide (MTT) assay and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay were used to assess the effect those isolates on the human osteoblast-like cell line (Saos-2). Activity-guided fractionation led to the isolation of ALP-activating phenolic compounds through the extraction of P. linteus, solvent partitioning, and repeated silica gel and octadecyl silica gel (ODS) column chromatographic separations. From the result of spectroscopic data including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry (MS), and infrared spectroscopy (IR), the chemical structures of the compounds were determined as 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-buten-2-one(1), 2-(3',4'-dihydroxyphenyl)-1,3-benzodioxole-5-aldehyde (2), 4-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3-buten-2-one (3), 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (4), and protocatechuic acid methyl ester (5), respectively. This study reports the first isolation of compounds 1-3 and 5 from P. linteus. In addition, all phenolic compounds stimulated proliferation of the osteoblast-like cells and increased their ALP activity in a dose-dependent manner ($10^{-8}$ to $10^{-1}\;mg/mL$). The present data demonstrate that phenolic compounds in P. linteus stimulated mineralization in bone formation caused by osteoporosis. The bone-formation effect of P. linteus seems to be mediated, at least partly, by the stimulating effect of the phenolic compounds on the growth of osteoblasts.

Pleiotrophin or osteoblast-specific factor 1(HOSF-1) is a growth-associated protein present in bone matrix. This study was designed to study pleiotrophin expression in osteoblastic cells. Pleiotrophin was expressed by osteoblast-like cell line. Pleiotrophin expression increased following the proliferative phase and was minimal at the terminal phases of the induced differentiation of cultured MC3T3-E1 cells. Pleiotrophin expression represents another autocrine factor that may contribute to the physiologic control of induced bone formation. In this study, induced osteogenesis will be examined in the context of the osteoblast expression of and regulation by PTN. I hypothesized that PDGF-BB stimulation of PTN expression represents an important paracrine signal during the induced osteogenesis associated with periodontal and implant surgeries. The possible mediation by PTN of anabolic effects attributed to PDGF-BB stimulation was examined in cell culture models of osteoblast differentiation. These studies will contribute fundamental insights to osteoblast biology and insights regarding the potential use of factors such as PTN in the clinical environment.

Bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are largely studied for their potential clinical use. But it is hard to get enough number of those cells for clinical trials and give serious pain to the patients. Adipose tissue is derived from the embryonic mesenchyme and contains a stroma that is easily isolated with large amount. This cell population (adipose derived stem cells: ADSCs) can be isolated from human lipoaspirates and like MSCs, differentiate toward the osteogenic, adipogenic, myogenic and chondrogenic lineages. To confirm whether adipose tissue contains stem cells, the ADSCs extracted from omental or subcutaneous fat tissue were expanded during third to fifth passages. The phenotype of the ADSCs was identified by the conventional cell surface markers using flow cytometry: positive for CD29 and CD44, but negative for CD34, CD45, CD117 and HLA-DR that similar to those observed on BMSCs. The ADSCs were able to differentiate into the osteoblast or adipocytes with induction media. Finally, ADACs expressed multiple CD marker antigens similar to those observed on BMSCs and differentiated into osteoblast, adipocyte. With this, human adipotissue contains multipotent cells and may represent an alternative stem cell source to bone marrow-derived MSCs.

본 연구에서는 홍국색소의 항산화 활성 및 조골세포의 분화에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 홍국색소의 항산화 활성은 DPPH radical 소거능, ABTS radical 소거능 및 SOD 유사 활성을 측정하여 평가하였다. 홍국색소의 DPPH radical 및 ABTS radical 소거 활성은 농도 의존적으로 증가하였으며, 특히 1,000 ㎍/ml 농도에서 각각 94% 및 99%의 최대 활성을 나타내었다. 또한 SOD 유사 활성을 검토한 결과에서, 홍국색소 1,000 ㎍/ml 농도에서 62%의 최대 활성을 나타내었다. 우선 홍국색소 1~1,000 ㎍/ml의 농도에서 세포독성을 검토하기 위해 MTT assay를 실시한 결과, 1~100 ㎍/ml 농도의 범위에서 세포 독성은 나타나지 않았다. ALP 활성은 1~100 ㎍/ml 농도에서 농도의 존적으로 증가하였으며, 100 ㎍/ml의 농도에서 최대 124%의 활성을 나타내었다. 또한, 석회화 형성능 시험에서도 대조군 대비 모든 농도에서 유의적으로 증가하는 경향이 나타났으며, 100 ㎍/ml의 농도에서 대조군 대비 1.5배의 석회화 형성 결과가 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 통해 홍국색소는 항산화 활성이 우수하며, 조골세포 분화에 긍정적인 영향을 줌으로써 골다공증 예방 소재로서의 개발 가능성을 가진 부가가치가 높은 천연물 소재로 활용 가능할 것으로 생각된다.
