ジャーナル Scand J Rheumatol
Abstract OBJECTIVE:RANKL is known to play an important role in activating osteoclasts and advancing the progress of osteoporosis. However, little is known about the effect of bisphosphonates on glucocorticoid-induced RANKL expression in human cells. Our study was intended to clarify effects of bisphosphonates on glucocorticoid-induced RANKL expression in human cells.
METHODS:Human T lymphoblastic cell line Jurkat and human osteosarcoma cell line MG-63 were used for the following experiments. RANKL expression in two cell lines was measured using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis and enzyme immunoassay (EIA). Luciferase assays using pGRE-Luc were also performed.
RESULTS:In Jurkat and MG-63 cells, dexamethasone induced expression of soluble RANKL (sRANKL) protein in supernatants and RANKL mRNA in cells. Moreover, bisphosphonates, but not cyclooxygenase inhibitors, repressed dexamethasone-induced sRANKL protein production. By contrast, glucocorticoid receptor-driven transcriptional activity was not inhibited by bisphosphonates.
CONCLUSION:Glucocorticoid induced RANKL expression in human cells derived from T lymphocytes and osteoblasts. Bisphosphonates inhibited glucocorticoid-induced RANKL expression, suggesting that these effects might be a new therapeutic mechanism for bisphosphonates.
