치아이동에 대한 생력학적 반응은 골 형성과 재형성의 조합이라 할 수 있다. 골 형성과 흡수에는 국소적으로 작용하는 여러 부분비 인자가 관여한다. 대표적인 여성호르몬인 에스트로젠과 프로게스테론도 그 중의 한 인자로 성인 여성은 생리, 임신, 폐경 등 상태에 따라 체내 성호르몬 농도가 달라진다. 따라서 이러한 농도의 변화에 따라 골조직이 영향을 받을 수 있을 것으로 추정된다. 골모세포는 골흡수를 일으키는 호르몬인 PTH, Vit $D_3$ 등에 일차적으로 반응함으로써 골형성 뿐만 아니라 골흡수에도 일정한 역할을 하고 있어 파골 세포에 영향을 주는 부분비 인자도 추측해 볼 수있다. 본 연구에서는 ROS17/2.8 및 HOS 세포주를 배양하면서 에스트로젠 및 프로게스테론 등 여성 호르몬을 처리한후 골모세포의 증식과 활성에 미치는 영향을 측정하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 에스트로젠은 HOS 세포의 증식을 억제하였으며 ROS17/2.8 세포의 증식은 촉진하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 2. 에스트로젠은 HOS 세포의 alkaline phosphatase 활성을 증가시켰고 ROS 세포에서는 효소활성을 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 프로게스테론은 HOS 및 ROS17/2.8 세포 모두의 증식을 억제하였으며 골모세포의 alkaline phosphatase 활성에는영향을 미치지 못하였다. 4. 에스트로젠과 프로게스테론은 골모세포내에서 생성되는 superoxide, nitric oxide 및 gelatinase 활성 등 골모세포의 기능에는 유의한 변화를 일으키지 않았다.

Natriuretic peptides comprise a family of three structurally related peptides; atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). The present study was performed to investigate the effect of ANP on the proliferation and activity of ROS17/2.8 and HOS cells which are well-characterized osteoblastic cell lines. ANP dose-dependently decreased the number of ROS17/2.8 and HOS cells after 48-hour treatment. ANP generally increased the alkaline phosphatase activity of ROS17/2.8 and HOS cells after 48 hr treatment, regardless of the fact that basal activity of alkaline phosphatase was much lower in HOS cells compared to that of ROS17/1.8 cells. ANP increased the NBT reduction by ROS17/2.8 and HOS cells. ANP showed the variable but no significant effect on the nitric oxide production by ROS17/2.8 and HOS cells. ROS17/2.8 and HOS cells produced and secreted gelatinase into culture medium, and this enzyme was thought to be the gelatinase A type with the molecular weight determination. The gelatinase activity produced by ROS17/2.8 cells was increased by the treatment of ANP. However, the enzyme activity was not affected by ANP treatment in the HOS cell culture. In summary, ANP decreased the proliferation and increased the alkaline phosphatase activity and NBT reduction of osteoblasts. These results indicate that ANP is one of the important regulators of bone metabolism.

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a recently discovered potent vasoconstrictive peptide. It was first identified in vascular endothelial cells. ET-1 is a 21-amino acid peptide and elicits systemic effects such as stimulation of the production of atrial natriuretic peptide and release of aldosterone and corticosterone. In this study, to examine the role of ET-1 in the bone metabolism, effect of ET-1 on the proliferation and activity of osteoblastic cells was studied using HOS cells as osteoblast model. ET-1 dose-dependently increased the cell proliferation as determined by cell counting and MTT reduction assay after 48hr treatment. Alkaline phosphatase activity was inhibited by ET-1 and showed significant inhibition by 50 and 100 nM ET-1. ET-1 increased NBT reduction by HOS cells dose-dependently showing that ET-1 may increase the superoxide production by osteoblasts. Nitrite concentration in the media of HOS cell culture without cytokine stimulation was negligible and unaffected by ET-1 after 48hr treatment. Finally, after collection and concentration of conditioned media, gelatinase activity produced by HOS cells was determined by zymography. HOS cells can produce and secrete the gelatinase (gelatinase A type as determined by molecular weight of about 65,000) into culture media, however, ET-1 had no effect on the gelatinase activity. These findings suggest that ET-1 may have diverse effects on the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts, therefore, it may play an important role in bone metabolism.

EGCG [(-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate], a major component of green tea has been considered as a major antioxidant constituent. In addition to having been considered for cancer treatment as a chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic agent, EGCG has recently been attributed an anti-proliferative effect. We re-examined the latter finding in this study and added specific focus on the ability of EGCG to induce apoptosis in human osteogenic sarcoma (HOS) cells. Antiproliferative action of EGCG $(IC_{50}=35.3{\pm}6.0{\mu}g/mL)$ appeared to be linked to apoptotic cell death based on morphological changes, chromosomal DNA degradation, and an increase in the $sub-G_1$ apoptotic cell population. Treatment of HOS cells with EGCG gradually activated caspase-3, an established inducer of apoptotic cell death.

Anti-proliferation of methanol extract of Curcuma rhizome on oral squamous cell carcinoma (KB) and osteosarcoma (HOS) cells were investigated. In order to elucidate the involvement of telomerase inhibitory activity as a part of anti-proliferative effect of Curcuma rhizome on cancer cells, we measured telomerase activity in Curcuma rhizome extract-treated cancer cells. The concentration inhibited cell proliferation to 50% $(IC_{50})$ of the methanol extract of Curcuma rhizome against oral squamous cell carcinoma (KB) cells and osteosarcoma (HOS) cells were 21.30 ${\mu}g/ml$ and 39.3${\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The methanol extract of Curcuma rhizome showed inhibitory telomerase inhibitory effect which is required for cancer cell immortality. Therefore, it seems that the anticancer effect of methanol extract of Curcuma rhizome is at least partially due to telomerase inhibitory effect. Five fraction samples were prepared according to its polarity differences and analyzed anti-proliferative effects of each fraction samples on oral squamous cell carcinoma and osteosarcoma cells. Anticancer effect was observed in dichloromethane, and ethylacetate fractions. The highest anticancer effect was found in dichloromethane fraction which had $IC_{50}$ value of 23.3 ${\mu}g/ml$ and 10.5${\mu}g/ml$ against oral squamous cell carcinoma (KB) cells and osteosarcoma (HOS) cells, respectively.

Previously, a flavonoid fraction, which consisted mainly of protocatechuic acid, fustin, fisetin, sulfuretin, and butein, here named RCMF [${\underline{R}}hus$ verniciflua Stokes (RVS) ${\underline{c}}hloroform-{\underline{m}}ethanol\;{\underline{f}}raction$], was prepared from a crude acetone extract of RVS which is traditionally used as a food additive and as an herbal medicine. In the present study, we investigated the effects of $TNF-{\alpha}$ on RCMF-induced growth inhibition and apoptosis induction using human osteosarcoma (HOS) cells. The results from tritium uptake and MTT assays showed that $TNF-{\alpha}$ treatment itself (10 ng/ml) did not induce any cytotoxicity, but it actively accelerated RCMF-mediated cytotoxicity of HOS cells. RCMF-induced cytotoxicity and its facilitation by $TNF-{\alpha}$ was verified to be apoptotic, based on the increased DNA fragmentation and low fluorescence intensity in nuclei after propidium iodide (PI) staining of HOS cells. This speculation was further demonstrated by monitoring the Annexin V/PI double staining which could discriminate the difference between apoptotic and necrotic deaths. Collectively, our findings indicate that $TNF-{\alpha}$ accelerates RCMF-induced cytotoxicity in HOS cells.

Resveratrol (3,4',5-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene), a naturally occuring polyphenol compound which present in the skin of grapes and red wine has been considered to posses chemopreventive and antioxidant properties. However, little is known about the cellular actions by which resveratrol mediates its therapeutic effects. In this study, the effect of resveratrol on cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis in human osteogenic sarcoma (HOS) cells was investigated. $IC_{50}$ value was determined to be approximately $6.0{\mu}g/ml$. Chromosomal DNA framgmentation analysis showed the appearance degraded DNA in time-and dose-dependent manner upon treatment of resveratrol. In order to observe the molecular mechanism involved in resveratrol-induced apoptosis, Western blot analysis was performed. We observed the decrease in the level of procaspase-3, the zymogen form of active caspase-3 in resveratrol-treated cells. This result implies that caspase-3 is activated upon treatment of resveratrol. The activation of caspase-3 was confirmed by the cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Taken together, our data demonstrate that resveratrol has anti-proliferative effect on HOS cells and induced apoptosis through activation of caspase-3 and PARP cleavage.

For reconstruction of the bony defect, various artificial substitutes were developed. Among them, there has been a study of calcium phosphate coated bone substitutes for increasing attachment of osteoblasts in vivo. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of serum and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on calcium phosphate coated culture plate for the initial attachment, proliferation and activity of osteoblasts. After sampling the blood from white rats and concentrating by centrifugation, the amount of attachment of PDGF-BB and $TGF-{\beta}$ on the calcium phosphate coated culture plate was measured. Cultured HOS and ROS 17/2.8 cell was measured on attachment level and proliferation rate of osteoblasts. Alkaline phosphatase activity of HOS and ROS 17/2.8 cell was measured for studying on the activating rate of osteoblast. 1. Counting the amount of platelets of seperated plasma and PRP, the average number of platelets was 177,003 $cell/{\mu}l$ in plasma, and 1,656,062 $cell/{\mu}l$ in PRP, which was about 9 times as high as in plasma. 2. Amount of PDGF-BB deposited at calcium phosphate coated plate had increased by the total amount of plasma and PRP on the culture plate, whereas $TGF-{\beta}$had been deposited on the plate only when treated by $50{\mu}{\ell}$ of PRP(p<0.01). 3. After plating serum and PRP for 3 hours, we attached with HOS and ROS17/2.8 cell for 1 hour and 4 hours. There were no significant difference of the attachment between serum and control group, whereas there were significantly difference of the attachment between depositioning of PRP and control group. 4. After attaching plasma and PRP for 3 hours, cell number has much increased when HOS and ROS17/2.8 cell had been cultured for 48 hours(p<0.05). 5. After attaching plasma and PRP for 3 hours, concentration of alkaline-phosphatase has increased when HOS and ROS17/2.8 cell had been cultured for 48 hours(p<0.01). These results suggested that PRP affected on initial cell attachment rather than proliferation and activation of osteoblasts at calcium phosphate coated plate.

광역동치료(PDT)는 갖가지 고형 종양의 치료를 위한 임상적시도로 시작되어 화학요법 및 방사선 요법에 내성이 있는 종양의 대체 치료법의 하나로 제시되고 있다. PDT는 전신적 또는 국소적으로 투여하여 유해한 조직에 선택적으로 농축되도록 한 광증감제와 이를 활성화하는 적절한 파장과 에너지를 가진 레이저광의 조합에 기초한다. 이 연구에서는, 인체 골육종 세포(HOS)에 미치는 레이저 EIT 21의 광독성 효과에 대해 알아보았으며, 그런 광독성 효과가 세포고사를 유발하는가를 규명하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 레이저 EIT 21이 HOS 세포에 대해 광독성을 효과를 가진다는 것을 증명했다. 세포 죽음이 세포괴사에 의해 유발되는지 아니면 세포고사에 의해 유발되는지를 알아보기 위해 세포 고사를 평가 하는 여러 실험 기법을 이용하였다. TUNEL 분석은 극소수만이 응축된 핵의 양성반응을 보여주었다. Hemacolor와 AO/EB 염색 또한 대부분의 세포가 괴사로 죽는 것을 보여주었다. 레이저 EIT로 조사된 HOS 세포에서 응축되거나 분절된 핵을 발견하는 것은 어려웠다. DNA 전기영동에서, 세포고사에서 보여지는 DNA 분절의 전형적인 특징인 사다리형 절편 형태(ladder fragmentation pattern)가 나타나지 않았다. Western blotting에 의한 분석에서 p53의 발현은 일정하게 나타났고 레이저로 조사된 세포는 caspase-3과 PARP의 분열을 나타내지 않는 것으로 보아 레이저 유도 세포 죽음(laser-induced cell death)은 p53과는 관련이 없는 것 같다.

The cell activities of bone metabolism is affected by growth factor rather than by hormone. The affects of growth factors on the bone activity were observed using various culture methods. Platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF) is produced from the well differentiated bone cell. It stimulates cell mitosis, synthesizes collagen in bone tissue and plays a role in healing response. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects that PDGF has on the activity and the proliferation of osteoblast by measuring the activity of alkaline phosphatase, the growth formation of calcified nodules, and osteocalcin production. In this study, HOS and ROS 17/2.8 osteoblastic cell line was used, along with variable concentrations of PDGF the were measured with osteoblastic proliferation. The cell proliferation of HOS and ROS 17/2.8 cells was stimulated dose- depentdently. Alakline phosphatase activity was significantly decreased by PDGF in osteoblastic cells. A number of small calcified nodules were observed in HOS cell treated with low concentrations(0.1, 0.4 ng/ml) of PDGF-BB and no significant difference from control group was found. High concentrations(10, 50 ng/ml) of PDGF suppressed calcified nodule formation. And osteocalcin production was inhibited with PDGF. These results suggest that PDGF stimulates the osteoblastic proliferation, whereas suppresses the individual cellular functions.
