Abstract
The possibility that the non-osteogenic mouse pluripotent cell line, C3H10T1/2 (10T1/2), could be induced to differentiate into osteogenic cells by various hormones and cytokines was examined in vitro. Of a number of agents tested, recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) and retinoic acid induced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in 10T1/2 cells. rhBMP-2 also induced mRNA expression of ALP in the cells. Dexamethasone, 1 alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, transforming growth factor-beta 1 and insulin-like growth factor-I did not stimulate ALP activity. Treatment with rhBMP-2 greatly induced cAMP production in response to parathyroid hormone in 10T1/2 cells. No ALP activity was induced in NIH3T3 fibroblasts treated with rhBMP-2 or retinoic acid. These results indicate that 10T1/2 cells have a potential to differentiate into osteogenic cells under the control of BMP-2.Entities:
