Title | Erk pathways negatively regulate matrix mineralization. |

Abstract |
Skeletal mineralization is an important step regulating the mechanical properties of the calcified tissues, but molecular events underlying mineralization still remain elusive. We examined the role of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk) pathways in matrix mineralization of osteogenic cells both in vitro and in vivo. Matrix mineralization by preosteocytic MLO-A5 cells and osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells was increased by either PD98059 Mek inhibitor treatment or adenovirus vector-mediated dominant negative Ras (Ras(DN)) expression and was suppressed by Erk activation by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) treatment or constitutively active Mek1 (Mek(CA)) expression. Administration of adenovirus vectors carrying Ras(DN) gene onto the calvaria of 1-day-old mice increased the mineralization of the tissues, while that of the Mek(CA) adenovirus suppressed it. These results suggest that the Erk pathway is a negative regulator of the matrix mineralization both in vitro and in vivo. |
