치주염을 유발한 쥐 치아의 근심면에서 상아질파괴세포와 뼈파괴세포의 형성을 비교하였다. 뼈파괴세포는 치주염 유발 후 3일까지 증가한 후 감소하였으나 상아질파괴세포는 치주염 유발 10일까지 서서히 증가하였으며 치주염 유발 전과 후의 상아질파괴세포의 수는 뼈파괴세포보다 적었다. 또한 치근 흡수는 상아질파괴세포가 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 이들 결과는 치주염 시 상아질파괴세포 형성도 뼈파괴세포처럼 증가하나 뼈파괴세포보다 서서히 약하게 진행됨을 시사한다. 본 연구에서 사용한 동물 모델과 연구 결과는 치주염에서 상아질파괴세포와 뼈파괴세포의 형성이 차이가 있음을 제시하는 최초 보고이며, 이들 세포의 형성 기전의 차이를 규명하는 앞으로의 연구에 유용한 자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단한다.

Silibinin is a polyphenolic flavonoid compound isolated from milk thistle (Silybum marianum), with known hepatoprotective, anticarcinogenic, and antioxidant effects. Herein, we show that silibinin inhibits receptor activator of $NF-{\kappa}B$ ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis from RAW264.7 cells as well as from bone marrow-derived monocyte/macrophage cells in a dose-dependent manner. Silibinin has no effect on the expression of RANKL or the soluble RANKL decoy receptor osteoprotegerin (OPG) in osteoblasts. However, we demonstrate that silibinin can block the activation of $NF-{\kappa}B$, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in osteoclast precursors in response to RANKL. Furthermore, silibinin attenuates the induction of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) c1 and osteoclast-associated receptor (OSCAR) expression during RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. We demonstrate that silibinin can inhibit $TNF-{\alpha}$-induced osteoclastogenesis as well as the expression of NFATc1 and OSCAR. Taken together, our results indicate that silibinin has the potential to inhibit osteoclast formation by attenuating the downstream signaling cascades associated with RANKL and $TNF-{\alpha}$.

Impairment of balance between bone-resorbing osteoclasts and bone-forming osteoblasts result in bone disease. Especially, increased osteoclast formation and activity are responsible for bone diseases such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, periodontal disease. Natural metabolites of plants have recently received much attention as an alternative tools for the development of novel therapeutic strategy. The aim of this study was to search the natural products to inhibit osteoclast differentiation and was to evaluate of its mechanism. Water extract of Gastrodia elata Blune significantly inhibited receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation in bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) in a dose dependent manner. However, water extract of Gastrodia elata Blune did not affect cytotoxicity when compared with control. The mRNA expression of c-Fos, NFATc1, and TRAP induced by RANKL was inhibited by water extract of Gastrodia elata Blune treatment. Also, water extract of Gastrodia elata Blune inhibited the protein expression of c-Fos and NFATc1 expression in BMMs treated with RANKL. Water extract of Gastrodia elata Blune suppressed the phosphorylation of p38 induced by RANKL. In general, RANKL considerably inhibited the expression level of Id2 and MafB known as negative regulators of osteoclastogenesis, but RANKL did not inhibit Id2 and MafB expression in BMMs when it was co-treated with Gastrodia elata Blune. Taken together, these results suggest that Gastrodia elata Blune may be a useful drug in the treatment of bone-related disease.

Gamijangsing-tang (GMJST) has been used for treatment of bone formation in traditional korean medicine. The purpose of this study is to examine effects of GMJST on bone metabolism. The effects on the osteoblasts were determined by measuring (1) cell proliferation, (2) alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, (3) osteoprotegerin (OPG) secretion. (4) The morphologic changes of cells were observed by light microscopy and electron microscopy. Mineralization of calcium was determined by quantitative alizarin red-S assay and mineralization of phosphate was observed by von kossa staining. The morphologic changes of mineralization on the cells were observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The effects on the osteoclast were investigated by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining. Following results were obtained: Celluar activity of osteoblastic cells (MG-63) was significantly increased in 10-5 of dilution of GMJST. ALP and OPG activity of osteoblastic cells were increased in GMJST than normal MG-63 cell. Mineralization of osteoblastic cells were increased in GMJST than normal MG-63 cell. The activity of osteoclast cells (RAW 264.7) was significantly decreased in GMJST than normal MG-63 cell. From the results, GMJST stimulated the proliferation and mineralization of bone-forming osteoblast and inhibited by bone- lysis osteoclast.

Bone homeostasis is regulated by the balance between bone-resorbing osteoclasts and bone-forming osteoblasts. Osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis and periodontal disease are related with up-regulated osteoclast formation and its activity. Gol-Swae-Bo(Drynariae Rhizoma) is widely used on skeletal disease. In this study, we sought to examine the effect of Drynariae Rhizoma in RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation. The extract of Drynariae Rhizoma inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation in a dose dependent manner without cytotoxicity. receptor activator of nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ ligand(RANKL) mediated $I{\kappa}B$ degradation in bone marrow macrophages(BMMs). However, the extract of Drynariae Rhizoma inhibited RANKL induced $I{\kappa}B$ degradation in BMMs. And mRNA expression of OSCAR, TRAP, c-Fos and NFATc1 was suppressed by the extract of Drynariae Rhizoma. Moreover, the extract of Drynariae Rhizoma inhibited the protein expression of NFATc1 and c-Fos induced by RANKL. After all the analysis, these results suggest that Drynariae Rhizoma may be good candidate of medicine in the treatment of bone-related disease.

Background: In lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW264.7 cells, Aster tataricus (AT) inhibits the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells and MAPKs pathways and critical pathways of osteoclast development and bone resorption. Objectives: This study examined how aster saponin A2 (AS-A2) isolated from AT affects the processes and function of osteoclastogenesis induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) in RAW264.7 cells and bone marrow macrophages (BMMs). Methods: The cell viability, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining, pit formation assay, polymerase chain reaction, and western blot were carried out to determine the effects of AS-A2 on osteoclastogenesis. Results: In RAW264.7 and BMMs, AS-A2 decreased RANKL-initiated osteoclast differentiation in a concentration-dependent manner. In AS-A2-treated cells, the phosphorylation of ERK1/2, JNK, and p38 protein expression were reduced considerably compared to the control cells. In RAW264.7 cells, AS-A2 suppressed the RANKL-induced activation of osteoclast-related genes. During osteoclast differentiation, AS-A2 suppressed the transcriptional and translational expression of NFATc1 and c-Fos. AS-A2 inhibited osteoclast development, reducing the size of the bone resorption pit area. Conclusion: AS-A2 isolated from AT appears to be a viable therapeutic therapy for osteolytic illnesses, such as osteoporosis, Paget's disease, and osteogenesis imperfecta.

전 세계적인 인구 고령화 현상으로 인하여 골다공증은 주요한 질병으로 대두되고 있다. 골다공증은 뼈의 질량과 강도가 감소하여 골절의 위험이 증가하는 질환으로 조골세포의 골 형성 및 파골세포의 골 흡수의 불균형으로 인해 발생하는 질환이다. 조골세포에 의한 골 형성은 BMP, RUNX2, $Wnt/{\beta}-catenin$ 경로 등을 통하여 활성화 되며, 파골세포에 의한 골 흡수는 RANKL과 RANK의 결합에 의해서 시작된다. 폐경기 여성은 호르몬 불균형에 의해 여러 질병의 위험에 처해 있으며, 폐경기 여성의 약 30%에서 관찰되는 골다공증은 폐경기 여성에게서 발생되는 가장 흔한 대사성 질환이기도 하다. Estrogen이 부족할 때 파골세포의 골 흡수가 촉진되므로, 특히 폐경 여성에서 골다공증의 발생위험이 증가하게 된다. 호르몬대체요법은 폐경기 증후군의 증상을 경감시키거나 치료하기 위해 널리 사용되어 왔으나, 호르몬 치료를 장기간 실시할 경우 유방암, 난소암, 자궁암 등의 부작용 위험성이 매우 높은 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 최근 들어 여러 부작용을 보완하기 위해 폐경기 증후군 증상에 대처할 수 있는 estrogen과 유사한 활성을 지닌 식물성 estrogen인 phytoestrogen에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 따라서, 본 총설에서는 조골세포 및 파골세포의 분화 기전에 대한 선행연구를 알아보고 골 대사에서의 estrogen의 역할 및 phytoestrogen과 관련한 연구들에 대해서도 살펴보았다.

본 연구는 superoxide의 제거물질로 알려진 pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)이 파골세포의 분화 및 성숙한 파골세포의 활성에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 시행하였다. Superoxide를 인지하는 방법인 nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) 염색방법을 이용하여 PQQ가 HD-11 세포가 생성한 superoxide를 제거하는지 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 이용된 HD-11세포는 닭 myelomonocytic 세포주로써 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin $D_3\;[1,25(OH)_2D_3]$ 처리시 tartrate-저항성 산성인산분해효소 (tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, TRAP)의 활성을 나타내는 등 파골세포의 특성을 지니는 세포로 알려져 있다. HD-11세포에서 TRAP 활성을 확인하기 위하여 조직화학적 염색을 시행하였다. PQQ는 NBT의 환원을 감소시켰으며 1,25(OH)2D3에 의해 유도된 TRAP 활성을 억제하였다. 또한 PQQ가 닭 골수세포에서 TRAP 양성 다핵세포의 형성에 미치는 영향도 관찰한 결과 20 ${\mu}M$의 PQQ는 TRAP 양성 다핵세포의 형성을 현저히 억제하였다. 닭 파골세포를 상아질 절편에서 배양하면서 20 ${\mu}M$의 PQQ를 처치한 경우 파골세포에 의한 상아질 흡수가 현저히 억제되었다. 따라서 본 연구결과 PQQ가 superoxide의 제거물질로 작용하여 파골세포의 분화 및 활성도에 영향을 미칠 것으로 사료되며, 이는 생리적 혹은 병적 골흡수에 억제적인 작용을 할 물질로의 가능성을 시사한다.

Chicken calvarial bone is known to contain various cell types, but their exact composition is unknown. By characterizing the chicken calvarial bone biochemically, it can be used to study biochemical, histochemical actions of bone cells in general. Calvaria of 18-day-old white leg horn embryo was aseptically dissected and bone cell populations were isolated by sequential enzymatic digestion. Histochemical study for osteoclast-like bone cell. population was performed with tartrate resistant acid phosphatase(TRAP) stain and for osteoblast-like bone cell population, alkaline phosphatase(ALP) stain was performed. Biochemical study for osteoblast-like bone cell population was performed using alkaline phosphatase(ALP) assay. Following conclusions were obtained from this study. 1. TRAP positive multi and mononuclear cells were mostly observed in group I and II, indicating that osteoclast-like bone cell population is mostly found in these groups. 2. All the cultured groups showed almost equal ALP activities and were positive for ALP stain, indicating that osteoblast-like bone cell population is evenly dispersed in all culture groups. 3. Experimental group treated with $1,25(OH)_{2}D_3$ showed increase in ALP activity in contrast to the control group, confirming previous studies that $1,25(OH)_{2}D_3$ increases ALP activities in in vitro bone cultures. 4. Results from von Kossa's stain indicated that in vitro bone formation had occured after 3 weeks of culture with beta-glycero phosphate.
