Mechanical Strain Regulates Osteoblast Proliferation through Integrin-Mediated ERK Activation
Mechanical strain plays a critical role in the proliferation, differentiation and maturation of bone cells. As mechanical receptor cells, osteoblasts perceive and respond to stress force, such as those associated with compression, strain and shear stress. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of this process remain unclear. Using a four-point bending device, mouse MC3T3-E1 cells was expo...
متن کاملInsulin augments mechanical strain-induced ERK activation and cyclooxygenase-2 expression in MG63 cells through integrins
Insulin has been proposed to be a positive regulator of osteoblast proliferation and bone formation. In vivo mechanical loading is essential for maintaining skeletal integrity and bone mass. Since insulin and mechanical force activate similar signaling pathways in osteoblasts, it was hypothesized that insulin may affect mechanical stimulation in osteoblasts. The present study tested the hypothe...
متن کاملDOCK2 regulates cell proliferation through Rac and ERK activation in B cell lymphoma.
DOCK2; a member of the CDM protein family, regulates cell motility and cytokine production through the activation of Rac in mammalian hematopoietic cells and plays a pivotal role in the modulation of the immune system. Here we demonstrated the alternative function of DOCK2 in hematopoietic tumor cells, especially in terms of its association with the tumor progression. Immunostaining for DOCK2 i...
متن کاملThe extracellular matrix protein Edil3 stimulates osteoblast differentiation through the integrin α5β1/ERK/Runx2 pathway
Epidermal growth factor-like repeats and discoidin I-like domain 3 (Edil3) is an extracellular matrix protein containing an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif that binds integrin. Recently, Edil3 has been implicated in various biological processes, including angiogenesis and cellular differentiation. It can inhibit inflammatory bone destruction. The objective of this study was to explore the role of Edil3...
متن کاملN-Cadherin Negatively Regulates Osteoblast Proliferation and Survival by Antagonizing Wnt, ERK and PI3K/Akt Signalling
BACKGROUND Osteoblasts are bone forming cells that play an essential role in osteogenesis. The elucidation of the mechanisms that control osteoblast number is of major interest for the treatment of skeletal disorders characterized by abnormal bone formation. Canonical Wnt signalling plays an important role in the control of osteoblast proliferation, differentiation and survival. Recent studies ...
