Canonical Wnt signaling in osteoblasts is required for osteoclast differentiation.
Inactivation of Lrp5, a gene encoding a likely Wnt co-receptor, results in low bone mass (osteopenia) by decreasing bone formation, suggesting that Wnt signaling in osteoblasts regulates bone formation. Here we show that Tcf1 and Tcf4 are expressed in osteoblasts during development and after birth; stabilization of beta-catenin, an essential component of canonical Wnt signaling, in differentiat...
متن کاملNotch Signaling is Required for Osteoclast Differentiation and Function
Introduction Osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cells responsible for the resorption of bone. As such, they are a critical component along with bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-regulating osteocytes in the process of bone remodeling. For this reason, osteoclasts are an attractive target in instances where increased bone mass is desired. In particular, anti-resorptive agents, which are chemic...
متن کاملERK5 Activation Is Essential for Osteoclast Differentiation
The MEK/ERK pathways are critical for controlling cell proliferation and differentiation. In this study, we show that the MEK5/ERK5 pathway participates in osteoclast differentiation. ERK5 was activated by M-CSF, which is one of the essential factors in osteoclast differentiation. Inhibition of MEK5 by BIX02189 or inhibition of ERK5 by XMD 8-92 blocked osteoclast differentiation. MEK5 knockdown...
متن کاملp38 MAPK-mediated signals are required for inducing osteoclast differentiation but not for osteoclast function.
Receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL)-induced signals play critical roles in osteoclast differentiation and function. SB203580, an inhibitor of p38 MAPK, blocked osteoclast formation induced by 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) and prostaglandin E(2) in cocultures of mouse osteoblasts and bone marrow cells. Nevertheless, SB203580 showed no inhibitory effect on RANKL expressio...
متن کاملc-kit is required for cardiomyocyte terminal differentiation.
c-kit, the transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor for stem cell factor, is required for melanocyte and mast cell development, hematopoiesis, and differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells. We show here that in the heart, c-kit is expressed not only by cardiac stem cells but also by cardiomyocytes, commencing immediately after birth and terminating a few days later, coincident with the onset o...
