Abstract Chitosan has a variety of biological activities. However, little is known about how chitosan modulates the hard tissue forming cells. When we cultured an osteoblastic cell line in alpha-MEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 0.005% chitooligosaccharide for 3 days, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was significantly high compared with the control culture group (p<0.05). This study was focused on gene expression in osteoblasts cultured with water-soluble chitooligosaccharide. cDNA probes were synthesized from isolated RNA and labeled with fluorescent dye. They were hybridized with Human 1.0((R)) cDNA microarray, and fluorescent signal was analyzed. cDNA microarray analysis revealed that 16 genes were expressed at >/=1.5-fold higher signal ratio levels in the experimental group compared with the control group after 3 days. RT-PCR analysis showed that chitosan oligomer induced an increase in the expression of two genes, CD56 antigen and tissue-type plasminogen activator. Furthermore, the expression of mRNAs for BMP-2 was almost identical in the experimental and control groups after 3 days of culture, but slightly increased after 7 days of culture with chitosan oligomer. These results suggest that a super-low concentration of chitooligosaccharide could modulate the activity of osteoblastic cells through mRNA levels and that the genes concerning cell proliferation and differentiation can be controlled by water-soluble chitosan.
