NF-kappaB inhibitors stimulate apoptosis of rabbit mature osteoclasts and inhibit bone resorption by these cells.
Interesting, recent studies have suggested a possibility that transcriptional factor NF-kappaB may play a functional role in the survival of mouse osteoclasts. However, it has not been known whether NF-kappaB is involved in apoptosis of and bone resorption by mature osteoclasts. Thus, using NF-kappaB inhibitors, we examined the functional role of NF-kappaB in the induction of apoptosis in rabbit mature osteoclasts. PDTC, a potent inhibitor of NF-kappaB, stimulated markedly apoptosis of the osteoclasts and inhibited bone resorption by these cells. These effects also was observed when three other inhibitors of NF-kappaB were used. And a gel mobility shift assay showed that PDTC also inhibited NF-kappaB binding to its consensus sequence in the cells. These results suggest a regulatory role for NF-kappaB in apoptosis in and bone resorption by rabbit mature osteoclasts.

Functional role of endogenous CD14 in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated bone resorption.
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a bacterial cell component that plays multifunctional roles in inflammatory reactions, and one of these roles is that of a powerful stimulator of bone resorption. However, the mechanism by which LPS stimulates bone resorption is not yet understood. In the present study, we show, by using mouse embryonic calvarial cells, that endogenous CD14 and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) play an important role in the LPS-mediated bone resorption and that interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) functions as a strong inhibitor of this resorption by suppressing LPS-stimulated expression of CD14 and IL-1 beta genes in the calvarial cells. We observed that LPS-stimulated differentiation of osteoclastic cells and bone resorption were markedly neutralized by anti-mouse CD14 antibody and were clearly inhibited by anti-sense CD14 oligonucleotide treatment. In addition, because LPS stimulated CD14 gene expression in the calvarial cells, these observations demonstrate the precise role of endogenous CD14 in LPS-stimulated differentiation of osteoclastic cells and bone resorption. However, the stimulation of the differentiation of osteoclastic cells and bone resorption was also inhibited by anti-mouse IL-1 beta antibody. Interestingly, anti-sense CD14 oligonucleotide inhibited LPS-stimulated expression of the IL-1 beta gene in the calvarial cells. These observations suggest a functional role of endogenous CD14 in LPS-stimulated expression of the IL-1 beta gene in the cells. Because IFN-gamma is a potent inhibitor of bone resorption stimulated by IL-1, in additional experiments, we examined whether IFN-gamma is able to inhibit LPS-stimulated differentiation of osteoclastic cells and bone resorption. We found that IFN-gamma inhibited these stimulations by suppressing CD14 and IL-1 beta genes in the calvarial cells. The present study thus clearly demonstrates a functional role of endogenous CD14 in LPS-stimulated bone resorption.

Interleukin-6 production in human fibroblasts derived from periodontal tissues is differentially regulated by cytokines and a glucocorticoid.
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is thought to be a major mediator of the host's defense against infection, and it regulates immune responses in inflamed tissue. In this study, we investigated the regulation of IL-6 production in human gingival fibroblasts (HGF) and human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPLF). Pro-inflammatory cytokines including interleukin (IL)-1 alpha, IL-1 beta and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha stimulated IL-6 production in HGF and HPLF in a time- and dose-dependent manner. This IL-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, or TNF-alpha-induced IL-6 production was enhanced, but the cAMP accumulation they induced was inhibited by the addition of indomethacin. This result suggests that endogenous prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) partially inhibits IL-1 or TNF-alpha-induced IL-6 production and that the enhancement of IL-6 production by IL-1 or TNF-alpha may not be caused through endogenous PGE2-induced cAMP-dependent pathway. Dexamethasone (DEX), a glucocorticoid which is a inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B activation, markedly inhibited IL-1 (alpha or beta) or TNF-alpha-induced IL-6 production; so this production may be partially mediated through NF-kappa B. IL-1 (alpha or beta) and TNF-alpha enhanced IL-6 production synergistically. IL-6 production in HGF or HPLF stimulated with IL-1 beta was augmented by the addition of interferon (IFN)-gamma, but was slightly suppressed by the addition of IL-4. Endogenous IL-6 enhanced IL-1 (alpha or beta)-induced IL-6 production in the presence of IL-6 soluble receptor (IL-6sR). Accordingly, in inflamed periodontal tissues, gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament fibroblasts stimulated with pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1 or TNF-alpha, may produce IL-6, and this production can be differentially modulated by endogenous PGE2, IL-6sR, T cell-derived cytokines such as IFN-gamma or IL-4, and glucocorticoids.

Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbria-stimulated bone resorption is inhibited through binding of the fimbriae to fibronectin.
Our most recent study demonstrated that fibronectin is one of the Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbria-binding proteins. In this present study, we demonstrate with mouse embryonic calvarial cells that P. gingivalis fimbria-stimulated bone resorption is inhibited by human fibronectin. The fibronectin inhibition was dose and culture time dependent and was completely neutralized by antifibronectin antibody. The inhibitory action of fibronectin depended on fimbrial interaction with the heparin-binding and cell-attachment domains in the fibronectin structure.

Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide-stimulated bone resorption via CD14 is inhibited by broad-spectrum antibiotics.
In the present study, we examined mechanisms of Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (P-LPS)-stimulated bone resorption via CD14, one of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptors, and also assessed the inhibitory action of several kinds of antibiotics on the LPS-induced stimulation. First, we observed by using mouse embryonic calvarial cells that P-LPS stimulated bone resorption through the action of endogenous interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) via CD14 because (i) P-LPS-stimulated expression of IL-1beta and IL-6 genes in calvarial cells was inhibited by an anti-mouse CD14 antibody, (ii) stimulated bone resorption was markedly inhibited by both IL-1beta and IL-6 antibodies, and (iii) P-LPS-stimulated bone resorption was clearly neutralized by an anti-mouse CD14 antibody. Next, we examined the effects of several kinds of antibiotics on P-LPS-stimulated bone resorption via CD14. Two of them, chloramphenicol and erythromycin, inhibited P-LPS-stimulated bone resorption in a dose-dependent manner. In an additional experiment, we observed that chloramphenicol clearly inhibited P-LPS-stimulated expression of the CD14, IL-1beta, and IL-6 genes in calvarial cells. These results suggest that chloramphenicol might be a useful antibiotic as an anti-inflammatory agent against P-LPS-stimulated periodontal destruction occurring via CD14 in periodontal disease.

Transcriptional regulation by transforming growth factor beta of the expression of retinoic acid and retinoid X receptor genes in osteoblastic cells is mediated through AP-1.
We now report that transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1), a potent regulatory cytokine of bone remodeling, is a powerful stimulator for gene expression of retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and retinoid X receptors (RXRs) in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. TGF-beta1 transcriptionally stimulated the expression of RARalpha, RARgamma, and RXRalpha genes, but did not do so for RARbeta, RXRbeta, and RXRgamma genes. We also observed that AP-1, a transcriptional factor, plays an important role in the signal pathway for expression of RARalpha, RARgamma, and RXRalpha genes stimulated by TGF-beta1 because stimulation of the expression of these genes in the cytokine-treated cells was markedly inhibited by a mixture of antisense c-fos and c-jun. A gel mobility shift assay demonstrated that TGF-beta1 is able to increase, in a dose-dependent manner, the binding of nuclear proteins to direct repeat 5, a consensus sequence with high affinity for RAR-RXR heterodimers. The mobility shift assay, using specific antibody for each receptor, showed that direct repeat 5-binding proteins may be RAR and RXR isoforms. The stimulated binding to direct repeat 5 was inhibited strongly by H-7, an inhibitor of serine/threonine kinase, and by curcumin, an inhibitor of AP-1. The present study suggests a novel pathway for TGF-beta1 action in osteoblastic cells via stimulation of RAR-RXR transcriptional activity in a ligand-dependent fashion.

Retinoic acid regulates differentially the expression of IL-1 beta and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) in PMA-activated human monocytes.
Retinoic acid (RA) is a well-known immunological modulator. Although it has been shown that RA stimulates IL-1 expression in monocytes, it is of interest for understanding of the regulatory role of RA in inflammation to examine whether RA also modulates the expression of the IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), which is reported to reduce IL-1 beta-mediated inflammation. In this study, we examined the effect of RA on expression of IL-1 beta and IL-ra in phorbol-myristate-acetate (PMA)-activated human monocytes. RA enhanced gene expression and production of IL-1 beta in PMA-activated monocytes. However, interestingly, gene expression and production of IL-1ra in the cells were markedly inhibited by RA. These results show that RA differentially regulates IL-1 beta and IL-ra expression in PMA-activated human monocytes and suggest that RA may promote IL-1-mediated inflammation.

Prostaglandin E2 stimulates osteoclast formation via endogenous IL-1 beta expressed through protein kinase A.
The present study was conducted to determine whether endogenous IL-1 is involved as a potent mediator of PGE2-stimulated osteoclast formation in 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3)-primed calvarial cells from mouse embryos. PGE2 induced IL-1 beta gene expression in the primed calvarial cells. IL-1 beta gene expression was also induced in a dose-dependent manner by forskolin and dibutyryl cAMP. PGE2-induced IL-1 beta gene expression was markedly inhibited by H-89, a potent inhibitor of protein kinase A. On the other hand, osteoclast formation in 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3-primed calvarial cells was also stimulated by forskolin and dibutyryl cAMP, and their stimulatory effects were dose dependent. H-89 also inhibited PGE2-stimulated osteoclast formation. The presence of the IL-1 beta gene product in the conditioned medium of 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3-primed calvarial cells treated with PGE2 was proved by the results of an immunoprecipitation assay using anti-mouse IL-1 beta Ab. The addition of anti-mouse IL-1 beta Ab to 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3 primed calvarial cell cultures markedly inhibited PGE2-stimulated osteoclast formation. The stimulatory effect of conditioned medium of primed calvarial cells treated with PGE2 on osteoclast formation was also inhibited by anti-IL-1 beta Ab pretreatment. Furthermore, we found that endogenous IL-6 is partially involved in PGE2-stimulated osteoclast formation.

Interleukin-1 beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha stimulate synergistically the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in fibroblastic cells derived from human periodontal ligament.
The present study demonstrates that interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) induce and synergistically stimulate monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) expression in fibroblasts from human periodontal ligament. IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha induced in a dose-dependent manner the expression of the MCP-1 gene in the fibroblasts from the human periodontal ligament. However, such an inducing effect was not observed with IL-6 and interferon-gamma. The peak expression of the MCP-1 gene by IL-1 beta or TNF-alpha was observed at 3 h after initiation of their treatment. Furthermore, IL-1 beta in combination with TNF-alpha synergistically stimulated the MCP-1 gene expression in the cells. We also observed significant chemotactic activity for human monocytes in conditioned medium of fibroblasts from the human periodontal ligament treated with both cytokines. The stimulated chemotactic activity induced by these cytokines depended on both dose and treatment time. The chemotactic activity in conditioned medium of IL-1 beta-treated fibroblasts from the human periodontal ligament was neutralized by antiserum specific for MCP-1 protein. The MCP-1 gene product in conditioned medium of IL-1 beta-treated fibroblasts from the human periodontal ligament was shown to have a molecular mass of 11,000 Da by immunoprecipitation with the specific antiserum, and IL-1 beta also stimulated synergistically MCP-1 protein expression in combination with TNF-alpha. These results suggest that IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha may contribute to the infiltration of monocytes into inflammatory sites of periodontal ligament tissues via the MCP-1 gene product produced by fibroblasts from the human periodontal ligament.

CD14-mediated signal pathway of Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide in human gingival fibroblasts.
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces expression of inflammatory cytokines in monocytes/macrophages via CD14, one of the LPS receptors, which is expressed predominantly in these cells. It has been demonstrated that Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS (P-LPS) also is able to induce inflammatory cytokines in human gingival fibroblasts. Therefore, it is important to determine whether CD14 is expressed in gingival fibroblasts and to define the P-LPS-mediated signal-transducing mechanism in the cells. In this study, we observed unexpectedly by immunohistochemical, Western blotting (immunoblotting), and Northern (RNA) blotting assays that CD14 is expressed at high density in human gingival fibroblasts. P-LPS-induced expression of the monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) gene in the cells was inhibited markedly by treatment with anti-human CD14 antibody and was completely inhibited by herbimycin A, a potent inhibitor of tyrosine kinase. The inhibitor also dramatically inhibited monocyte chemotactic activity of and MCP-1 production by the cells. Furthermore, P-LPS-induced expression of the MCP-1 gene in the cells also was blocked by inhibitors of two transcription factors, i.e., curcumin, an inhibitor of AP-1, and pyrolidine dithiocarbamate, an inhibitor of NF-kappaB. Both inhibitors inhibited monocyte chemotactic activity in the culture supernatant of P-LPS-treated cells. Gel shift mobility assay showed stimulation of the AP-1 and NF-kappaB contents in P-LPS-treated cells. This study is the first to demonstrate the expression of CD14 in human gingival fibroblasts and to show that the signal-transducing pathway of P-LPS in the cells is mediated by CD14.

Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbrillin is one of the fibronectin-binding proteins.
In this study, we demonstrate that Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbrillin, a major component of bacterial fimbriae, is one of the fibronectin-binding proteins and that fibronectin is a potent inhibitor of the adherence of the bacteria to host cells and of the pathogenesis of the bacterium that acts by binding to the fimbriae. A Western blotting (immunoblotting) assay showed that fibronectin binds strongly to P. gingivalis fimbrillin. The fimbrial binding to fibronectin was also evidenced by a binding assay involving 125I-labeled fimbriae. Furthermore, fibronectin markedly inhibited the fimbria-induced expression of interleukin-1beta and neutrophil-specific chemoattractant KC genes in macrophages. The inhibitory action depended on the fimbrial interaction with heparin-binding and cell attachment domains in the fibronectin structure. The binding of P.gingivalis to mouse peritoneal macrophages via its fimbriae was inhibited by fibronectin. Fibronectin also inhibited the bacterial cell-induced expression of interleukin-1beta and KC genes in the macrophages. These results demonstrate the importance of fibronectin as a modulator of the pathogenic mechanism of P. gingivalis, a pathogen that causes adult periodontal disease.

TGF-beta induces expression of monocyte chemoattractant JE/monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 via transcriptional factor AP-1 induced by protein kinase in osteoblastic cells.
In this work, we demonstrate the signal-transducing mechanism of TGF-beta 1 for gene expression of monocyte chemoattractant JE/monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) in clonal osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. TGF-beta 1-induced JE/MCP-1 gene expression in the cells was inhibited markedly by H-7 (1-(5-isoguinolinesulfonyl)-2-O-methylpiperazine-dihydrochloride) and staurosporine, potent inhibitors of protein kinase. TGF-beta 1-induced expression of both early proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-jun in the cells was also inhibited by H-7 and staurosporine. Antisense oligonucleotides to c-fos and c-jun genes inhibited significantly the cytokine-induced JE/MCP-1 gene expression. Curcumin, a specific inhibitor of c-jun/AP-1, inhibited the cytokine-induced c-jun gene expression in a dose-dependent manner, though the c-fos gene expression was not affected. TGF-beta 1 stimulated transcriptionally the JE/MCP-1 gene expression, and this stimulation was inhibited significantly by curcumin. Curcumin-induced inhibition of the JE/MCP-1 gene product was also evidenced by both an assay involving immunoprecipitation with antiserum specific for JE/MCP-1 and an assay for monocyte chemotaxis. Curcumin markedly inhibited AP-1 binding activity to 12-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate-responsive element (TRE) in the cytokine-treated cells. Furthermore, H-7 and staurosporine also inhibited the binding activity to TRE in the cells treated by the cytokine. These results demonstrate that TGF-beta 1 induces expression of monocyte chemoattractant JE/MCP-1 via the transcriptional factor AP-1 induced by protein kinase in the osteoblastic cells.

Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbria-stimulated bone resorption in vitro is inhibited by a tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
Our previous study (Y. Kawata, S. Hanazawa, S. Amano, Y. Murakami, T. Matsumoto, K. Nishida, and S. Kitano, Infect. Immun. 62:3012-3016, 1994) showed that Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbriae stimulate bone resorption in vitro. Since it has recently been demonstrated that tyrosine kinase encoded by the c-src gene plays an important role in osteoclastic bone resorption, in the present study we examined the effect of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor on the fimbria-stimulated bone resorption. Genistein, a potent inhibitor of tyrosine kinase, markedly inhibited bone resorption stimulated by the fimbriae. Genistein also inhibited induction of several tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in the fimbria-treated calvarial bone cells from mouse embryos.

Interleukin-4 acts as a potent stimulator for expression of monocyte chemoattractant JE/MCP-1 in mouse peritoneal macrophages.
The recruitment of monocyte/macrophages to inflammatory sites is one of the important events in inflammatory reactions. We show herein that interleukin-4 (IL-4) acts as a potent stimulator for expression of monocyte chemoattractant JE/MCP-1 in mouse peritoneal macrophages. IL-4 induced the JE/MCP-1 gene expression in dose and time dependent fashion. Run-on assay suggests that IL-4 stimulates the JE/MCP-1 gene expression at transcriptional level. Monocyte chemotactic activity was detected in culture medium of the cytokine-treated cells. The chemotactic activity in the culture supernatant was completely neutralized by anti-JE/MCP-1 antiserum.

Retinoic acid suppression of c-fos gene inhibits expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced monocyte chemoattractant JE/MCP-1 in clonal osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells.
Our previous study (Hanazawa, S., Takeshita, A., Amano, S., Semba, T., Nirazuka, T., Katoh, H., and Kitano, S. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 9526-9532) demonstrated that tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) induces monocyte chemoattractant JE/MCP-1 expression via c-fos and c-jun genes following protein kinase C activation in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. In the present study, we examined the effect of retinoic acid (RA) on the cytokine-induced JE/MCP-1 expression in the cells. RA significantly inhibited the JE/MCP-1 gene expression by at least 6 h of pretreatment, and the inhibition was pretreatment time-dependent and occurred at the transcriptional level of the JE/MCP-1 gene expression. The RA-induced inhibition of the JE/MCP-1 gene product was also evidenced by both an assay involving immunoprecipitation with JE/MCP-1-specific antiserum and an assay for monocyte chemotaxis. Also, RA stimulated the gene expression of three different subclasses of RA receptor. RA pretreatment transcriptionally suppressed the expression of the c-fos gene but not that of the c-jun gene in TNF-alpha-treated cells. Antisense oligonucleotide to c-fos gene inhibited the cytokine-induced JE/MCP-1 gene expression in the cells. Furthermore, RA inhibited activator protein-1 binding to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate-response element (TRE) in the cells treated with TNF-alpha, suggesting that RA acts as a potent negative regulator for activator protein-1 binding activity to TRE in the osteoblastic cells.

Phorbol myristate acetate stimulates osteoclast formation in 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-primed mouse embryonic calvarial cells by a prostaglandin-dependent mechanism.
Our previous study provided a novel assay system utilizing devitalized bone slices for study of the differentiation of osteoclast progenitors into preosteoclasts and mature osteoclasts among calvarial cells of mouse embryos. Using this assay system, we examined the effect of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) on osteoclast formation as assessed by the appearance of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive cells and bone resorption lacunae. PMA alone was directly unable to induce the appearance of TRAP-positive cells and bone resorption lacunae of calvarial bone cells of mouse embryos. However, PMA markedly stimulated increases in the number of TRAP-positive cells and area of the resorption lacunae of the calvarial cells when the bone cells were primed by 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3. This stimulatory effect of PMA was dose dependent. H-7, having relatively high affinity for protein kinase C, strongly inhibited in a dose-dependent fashion the stimulatory effect of PMA on the bone resorption of the hormone-primed calvarial cells. We also examined the involvement of prostaglandin in this stimulatory effect of PMA. Indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, markedly abolished the stimulatory effect of PMA on the bone resorption of the calvarial cells. PMA stimulated prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production by the calvarial cells primed with 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3 in a dose-dependent fashion. However, the PMA stimulation of the PGE2 production was significantly inhibited by H-7 and also by indomethacin. Furthermore, we observed that the addition of PGE2 to the calvarial cells primed with 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3 for 1 or 3 days resulted in an increased number of TRAP-positive cells and increased bone resorption.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
