Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is a common endocrine metabolic bone disease, which may lead to severe consequences. However, the unknown molecular mechanism of osteoporosis, the observable side effects of present treatments and the inability to fundamentally improve bone metabolism seriously restrict the impact of prevention and treatment. The study aims to identify potential biomarkers from osteoclast progenitors, specifically peripheral blood monocytes on predicting the osteoporotic phenotype. METHODS Datasets were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Based on the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and GSEA results, GO and KEGG analyses were performed using the DAVID database and Metascape database. PPI network, TF network, drug-gene interaction network, and ceRNA network were established to determine the hub genes. Its osteogenesis, migration, and proliferation abilities in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were validated through RT-qPCR, WB, ALP staining, VK staining, wound healing assay, transwell assay, and CCK-8 assay. RESULTS A total of 63 significant DEGs were screened. Functional and pathway enrichment analysis discovered that the functions of the significant DEGs (SDEGs) are mainly related to immunity and metal ions. A comprehensive evaluation of all the network analyses, PMAIP1 was defined as osteoporosis's core gene. This conclusion was further confirmed in clinical cohort data. A series of experiments demonstrated that the PMAIP1 gene can promote the osteogenesis, migration and proliferation of BMSC cells. CONCLUSIONS All of these outcomes showed a new theoretical basis for further research in the treatment of osteoporosis, and PMAIP1 was identified as a potential biomarker for osteoporosis diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
The formation of a calcified cartilaginous callus (CACC) is crucial during bone repair. CACC can stimulate the invasion of type H vessels into the callus to couple angiogenesis and osteogenesis, induce osteoclastogenesis to resorb the calcified matrix, and promote osteoclast secretion of factors to enhance osteogenesis, ultimately achieving the replacement of cartilage with bone. In this study, a porous polycaprolactone/hydroxyapatite-iminodiacetic acid-deferoxamine (PCL/HA-SF-DFO) 3D biomimetic CACC is developed using 3D printing. The porous structure can mimic the pores formed by the matrix metalloproteinase degradation of the cartilaginous matrix, HA-containing PCL can mimic the calcified cartilaginous matrix, and SF anchors DFO onto HA for the slow release of DFO. The in vitro results show that the scaffold significantly enhances angiogenesis, promotes osteoclastogenesis and resorption by osteoclasts, and enhances the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal stem cells by promoting collagen triple helix repeat-containing 1 expression by osteoclasts. The in vivo results show that the scaffold significantly promotes type H vessels formation and the expression of coupling factors to promote osteogenesis, ultimately enhancing the regeneration of large-segment bone defects in rats and preventing dislodging of the internal fixation screw. In conclusion, the scaffold inspired by biological bone repair processes effectively promotes bone regeneration.

Abstract
As a common complication of many cardiovascular diseases, cardiac hypertrophy is characterized by increased cardiac cell volume, reorganization of the cytoskeleton, and the reactivation of fetal genes such as cardiac natriuretic peptide and β-myosin heavy chain. Cardiac hypertrophy is a distinguishing feature of some cardiovascular diseases. Our previous study showed that sodium ferulate (SF) alleviates myocardial hypertrophy induced by coarctation of the abdominal aorta, and these protective effects may be related to the inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways. This study investigated the inhibitory effect and mechanism of SF on myocardial hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). The effects of SF on cardiac hypertrophy were evaluated using echocardiographic measurement, pathological analysis, and detection of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and β-myosin heavy chain (β-MHC) expression. To investigate the mechanisms underlying the anti-hypertrophic effects of SF, the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), calcineurin (CaN), nuclear factor of activated T cells 3 (NFAT3), zinc finger transcription factor 4 (GATA4), protein kinase C beta (PKC-β), Raf-1, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK 1/2), and mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) were detected by molecular biology techniques. Treatment with SF ameliorated myocardial hypertrophy in 26-week-old SHRs. In addition, it downregulated the levels of ANP, β-MHC, CaSR, CaN, NFAT3, phosphorylated GATA4 (p-GATA4), PKC-β, Raf-1, and p-ERK 1/2; and upregulated the levels of p-NFAT3 and MKP-1. These results suggest that the effects of SF on cardiac hypertrophy are related to regulation of the CaSR-mediated signaling pathway.

Cooperative electrogenic proton transport pathways in the plasma membrane of the proton-secreting osteoclast. Pflugers Arch 2018; 470:851-866. [PMID: 29550927 DOI: 10.1007/s00424-018-2137-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2017] [Revised: 02/13/2018] [Accepted: 03/06/2018] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
A proton is a ubiquitous signaling ion. Many transmembrane H+ transport pathways either maintain pH homeostasis or generate acidic compartments. The osteoclast is a bone-resorbing cell, which degrades bone tissues by secreting protons and lysosomal enzymes into the resorption pit. The plasma membrane facing bone tissue (ruffled border), generated partly by fusion of lysosomes, may mimic H+ flux mechanisms regulating acidic vesicles. We identified three electrogenic H+-fluxes in osteoclast plasma membranes-a vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase), a voltage-gated proton channel (Hv channel) and an acid-inducible H+-leak-whose electrophysiological profiles and regulation mechanisms differed. V-ATPase and Hv channel, both may have intracellular reservoirs, but the recruitment/internalization is regulated independently. V-ATPase mediates active H+ efflux, acidifying the resorption pit, while acid-inducible H+ leak, activated at an extracellular pH < 5.5, diminishes pit acidification, possibly to protect bone from excess degradation. The two-way H+ flux mechanisms in opposite directions may have advantages in fine regulation of pit pH. Hv channel mediates passive H+ efflux. Although its working ranges are limited, the amount of H+ extrusion is 100 times larger than those of the V-ATPase and may support reactive oxygen species production during osteoclastogenesis. Extracellular Ca2+, H+ and inorganic phosphate, which accumulate in the resorption pit, will either stimulate or inhibit these H+ fluxes. Skeletal integration is disrupted by too much or too less of bone resorption. Diversities in plasma membrane H+ flux pathways, which may co-operate or compete, are essential to adjust osteoclast functions in variable conditions.

Abstract
Fracture healing, in which osteoclasts and osteoblasts play important roles, has drawn much clinical attention. Osteoclast deficiency or decreased osteoblast activity will impair fracture healing. TRPV1 is a member of the Ca2+ permeable cation channel subfamily, and pharmacological inhibition of TRPV1 prevents ovariectomy-induced bone loss, which makes TRPV1 a potential target for osteoporosis. However, whether long term TRPV1 inhibition or TRPV1 deletion will affect the fracture healing process is unclear. In this study, we found that the wild-type mice showed a well-remodeled fracture callus, whereas TRPV1 knockout mice still had an obvious fracture gap with unresorbed soft-callus 4 weeks post-fracture. The number of osteoclasts was reduced in the TRPV1 knockout fracture callus, and osteoclast formation and resorption activity were also impaired in vitro. TRPV1 deletion decreased the calcium oscillation frequency and peak cytoplasmic concentration in osteoclast precursors, subsequently reducing the expression and nuclear translocation of NFATc1 and downregulating DC-stamp, cathepsin K, and ATP6V. In addition, TRPV1 deletion caused reduced mRNA and protein expression of Runx2 and ALP in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and reduced calcium deposition in vitro. Our results suggest that TRPV1 deletion impairs fracture healing, and inhibited osteoclastogenesis and osteogenesis.

Abstract
Osedax are gutless siboglinid worms that thrive on vertebrate bones lying on the ocean floor, mainly those of whales. The posterior body of female Osedax penetrates into the bone forming extensions known as 'roots', which host heterotrophic symbiotic bacteria in bacteriocytes beneath the epidermis. The Osedax root epithelium presumably absorbs bone collagen and/or lipids, which are metabolized by the symbiotic bacteria that in turn serve for Osedax's nutrition. Here, we show that Osedax roots express extremely high amounts of vacuolar-H(+)-ATPase (VHA), which is located in the apical membrane and in cytoplasmic vesicles of root and ovisac epithelial cells. The enzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA), which catalyses the hydration of CO2 into H(+) and HCO3(-), is also expressed in roots and throughout Osedax body. These results suggest Osedax roots have massive acid-secreting capacity via VHA, fuelled by H(+) derived from the CA-catalysed hydration of CO2 produced by aerobic metabolism. We propose the secreted acid dissolves the bone carbonate matrix to then allow the absorption of bone-derived nutrients across the skin. In an exciting example of convergent evolution, this model for acid secretion is remarkably similar to mammalian osteoclast cells. However, while osteoclasts dissolve bone for repairing and remodelling, the Osedax root epithelium secretes acid to dissolve foreign bone to access nutrients.

Abstract
In osteoclasts, elevation of extracellular Ca2+ is an endogenous signal that inhibits bone resorption. We recently found that an elevation of extracellular Ca2+ decreased proton extrusion through the plasma membrane vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) rapidly. In this study we investigated mechanisms underlying this early Ca2+-sensing response, particularly in reference to the activity of the plasma membrane V-ATPase and to membrane retrieval. Whole cell clamp recordings allowed us to measure the V-ATPase currents and the cell capacitance ( Cm) simultaneously. Cm is a measure of cell surface. Extracellular Ca2+ (2.5–40 mM) decreased Cm and the V-ATPase current simultaneously. The decreased Cm, together with the enhanced uptake of a lipophilic dye (FM1–43), indicated that Ca2+ facilitated endocytosis. The endocytosis was blocked by dynamin inhibitors (dynasore and dynamin-inhibitory peptide), by small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting for dynanmin-2 and also by bafilomycin A1, a blocker of V-ATPases. The extracellular Ca2+-induced endocytosis and inhibition of the V-ATPase current were diminished by a phospholipase C inhibitor (U73122) and siRNA targeting for phospholipase C γ2 subunit. Holding the cytosolic Ca2+ at either high (0.5–5 μM) or low levels or inhibiting calmodulin by an inhibitor (W7) or an antibody (anti-CaM) decreased the stimulated endocytosis and the inhibition of the V-ATPase current. These data suggest that extracellular Ca2+ facilitated dynamin- and V-ATPase-dependent endocytosis in association with an inhibition of the plasma membrane V-ATPase. Phospholipase C, cytosolic Ca2+, and calmodulin were involved in the signaling pathways. Membrane retrieval and the plasma membrane V-ATPase activity may cooperate during the early phase of Ca2+-sensing response in osteoclasts.

Abstract
Recent progress has been made in our understanding of the functional role of the seven-transmembrane-spanning extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) in bone cells. Both in vitro and in vivo data indicate that the CaSR is a physiological regulator of bone cell metabolism. The CaSR regulates the recruitment, differentiation and survival of osteoblasts and osteoclasts through activation of multiple CaSR-mediated intracellular signaling pathways in bone cells. This raises the possibility that the bone CaSR could potentially be targeted by allosteric modulators, either agonists (calcimimetics) or antagonists (calcilytics) to control bone remodeling. The therapeutic potential of CaSR agonists or antagonists in bone cells is however hampered by their effects on the CaSR in nonskeletal tissues. Rather, direct targeting of the bone CaSR may be of potential interest for the treatment of bone diseases. Targeting the bone CaSR using a bone-seeking CaSR agonist offers a potential mean to modulate bone cell metabolism. The development of drugs that preferentially target the CaSR and possibly other cation-sensing receptors in bone cells may thus be helpful for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Nanocomposites of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA 260) with Cloisite 20A organo clay and Cloisite 20A organo clay impregnated with Fe(CO)(5) were produced in a twin-screw extruder. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) measurements indicated that the moduli increased monotonically for the Cloisite, up to a concentration of 10%, after which the modulus decreased. Adult human dermal fibroblasts (AHDF) were plated on these surfaces and the cell growth was found to be maximal on the nanocomposites containing 10% Cloisite. AHDFs cultured on substrates with higher Cloisite content had low surface area, poor growth curves, and misshaped actin fibers. Compounding EVA with Fe(CO)(5) soaked Cloisite did not enhance the modulus even at a loading of 10%. TEM images indicate nanoparticles form and coat the Cloisite platelet surfaces, possibly interfering with the exfoliation process. On the other hand, cell culture of MC3T3 osteoblasts proliferated on the Fe containing nanocomposites, the largest effect being observed when cultured in a constant magnetic field. These results indicate how the chemical nature of the Cloisite 20A organo clay can also play a major role. Finally, since natural ECM is fibrillar, these EVA nanocomposites were also electrospun into micron thick fibers. MC3T3s proliferated well on these fibers and the MC3T3 proliferation was maximized by culture on electrospun aligned fibers in a constant magnetic field.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are bone-resorbing cells derived from hematopoietic precursors of the monocyte-macrophage lineage. Besides the well known Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor-kappaB (RANK), RANK ligand and osteoprotegerin axis, a variety of factors tightly regulate osteoclast formation, adhesion, polarization, motility, resorbing activity and life span, maintaining bone resorption within physiological ranges. Receptor-mediated osteoclast regulation is rather complex. Nuclear receptors, cell surface receptors, integrin receptors and cell death receptors work together to control osteoclast activity and prevent both reduced or increased bone resorption. Here we will discuss the signal transduction pathways activated by the main osteoclast receptors, integrating their function and mechanisms of action.

Abstract
The vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) in the plasma membrane of a variety of cells serves as an acid-secreting pathway, and its activity is closely related to cellular functions. Massive proton secretion often leads to electrolyte disturbances in the vicinity of the cell and may in turn affect the activity of the V-ATPase. We characterized, for the first time, the proton currents mediated by plasmalemmal V-ATPase in murine osteoclast-like cells and investigated its activity over a wide range of pH gradients across the membrane (DeltapH = extracellular pH - intracellular pH). The V-ATPase currents were identified as outward H(+) currents and were dependent on ATP and sensitive to the inhibitors bafilomycin A(1) and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. Although H(+) was transported uphill, the electrochemical gradient for H(+) affected the current. The currents were increased by elevating DeltapH and depolarization, and were reduced by lowering DeltapH and hyperpolarization. Elevation of extracellular Ca(2+) (5-40 mm) diminished the currents in a dose-dependent manner and made the voltage dependence more marked. Extracellular Mg(2+) mimicked the inhibition. With 40 mm Ca(2+), the currents decreased to < 40% at 0 mV and to < 10% at about -80 mV. Increases in the intracellular Ca(2+) (0.5-5 microm) did not affect the current. The data suggest that acid secretion through the plasmalemmal V-ATPase is regulated by a combination of the pH gradient, the membrane potential and the extracellular divalent cations. In osteoclasts, the activity-dependent accumulation of acids and Ca(2+) in the closed extracellular compartment might serve as negative feedback signals for regulating the V-ATPase.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings have been applied on titanium implants to improve the bioactivity in order to favor the initial bone healing response. Recently, a new technique has been developed to apply CaP coatings: electrostatic spray deposition (ESD). Although ESD-derived coatings have several benefits, it is not known whether they are degradable. This study was designed to examine the cell-mediated degradation of two ESD-derived coatings with different chemical compositions, that is, beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP) and carbonate apatite (CA). First, coatings were deposited and analyzed physiochemically. Subsequently, rat bone marrow-derived osteoclastlike cells were seeded on the coatings, and analyzed with osteoclast-specific markers, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Results showed that both coatings exhibited porous morphologies, with an average pore size of less than 1 microm (beta-TCP), or larger than 1 microm (CA). After heat treatment, both coatings were crystalline in structure. The Ca/P ratios were 1.4 to 1.5 for the beta-TCP coating, and 1.8 to 2.0 for the CA coating. After 8 and 12 days of culture, multinucleated osteoclastlike cells were observed on both coatings. The osteoclast phenotype was confirmed by tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, and immunostaining against the calcitonin receptor. Using scanning electron microscopy, numerous resorption lacunae were observed in both coatings. Finally, transmission electron microscopy of TRAP-positive cells confirmed the osteoclastlike aspect of the cells revealing multiple nuclei and a ruffled border. In conclusion, CaP coatings produced with the ESD process can be degraded by osteoclasts.

Abstract
The skeletal matrix in terrestrial vertebrates undergoes continual cycles of removal and replacement in the processes of bone growth, repair and remodeling. The osteoclast is uniquely important in bone resorption and thus is implicated in the pathogenesis of clinically important bone and joint diseases. Activated osteoclasts form a resorptive hemivacuole with the bone surface into which they release both acid and osteoclastic lysosomal hydrolases. This article reviews cell physiological studies of the local mechanisms that regulate the resorptive process. These used in vitro methods for the isolation, culture and direct study of the properties of neonatal rat osteoclasts. They demonstrated that both local microvascular agents and products of the bone resorptive process such as ambient Ca2+ could complement longer-range systemic regulatory mechanisms such as those that might be exerted through calcitonin (CT). Thus elevated extracellular [Ca2+], or applications of surrogate divalent cation agonists for Ca2+, inhibited bone resorptive activity and produced parallel increases in cytosolic [Ca2+], cell retraction and longer-term inhibition of enzyme release in isolated rat osteoclasts. These changes showed specificity, inactivation, and voltage-dependent properties that implicated a cell surface Ca2+ receptor (CaR) sensitive to millimolar extracellular [Ca2+]. Pharmacological, biophysical and immunochemical evidence implicated a ryanodine-receptor (RyR) type II isoform in this process and localized it to a unique, surface membrane site, with an outward-facing channel-forming domain. Such a surface RyR might function either directly or indirectly in the process of extracellular [Ca2+] sensing and in turn be modulated by cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPr) produced by the ADP-ribosyl cyclase, CD38. The review finishes by speculating about possible detailed models for these transduction events and their possible interactions with other systemic mechanisms involved in Ca2+ homeostasis as well as the possible role of the RyR-based signaling mechanisms in longer-term cell regulatory processes.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are multinucleated, bone-resorbing cells that show structural and functional differences between the resorbing and nonresorbing (motile) states during the bone resorption cycle. In the present study, we measured intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in nonresorbing vs. resorbing rat osteoclasts. Basal [Ca2+]i in osteoclasts possessing pseudopodia (nonresorbing/motile state) was around 110 nM and significantly higher than that in actin ring-forming osteoclasts (resorbing state, around 50 nM). In nonresorbing/motile osteoclasts, exposure to high K+ reduced [Ca2+]i, whereas high K+ increased [Ca2+]i in resorbing state osteoclasts. In nonresorbing/motile cells, membrane depolarization and hyperpolarization applied by the patch-clamp technique decreased and increased [Ca2+]i, respectively. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ or application of 300 microM La3+ reduced [Ca2+]i to approximately 50 nM in nonresorbing/motile osteoclasts, and high-K+-induced reduction of [Ca2+]i could not be observed under these conditions. Neither inhibition of intracellular Ca2+ stores or plasma membrane Ca2+ pumps nor blocking of L- and N-type Ca2+ channels significantly reduced [Ca2+]i. Exposure to high K+ inhibited the motility of nonresorbing osteoclasts and reduced the number of actin rings and pit formation in resorbing osteoclasts. These results indicate that in nonresorbing/motile osteoclasts, a La3+-sensitive Ca2+ entry pathway is continuously active under resting conditions, keeping [Ca2+]i high. Changes in membrane potential regulate osteoclastic motility by controlling the net amount of Ca2+ entry in a "reversed" voltage-dependent manner, i.e., depolarization decreases and hyperpolarization increases [Ca2+]i.

Abstract
Activation of a calcium-sensing receptor (Ca-SR) leads to increased intracellular calcium concentration and altered cellular activities. The expression of Ca-SR has been identified in both nonexcitable and excitable cells, including neurons and smooth muscle cells. Whether Ca-SR was expressed and functioning in cardiac myocytes remained unclear. In the present study, the transcripts of Ca-SR were identified in rat heart tissues using RT-PCR that was further confirmed by sequence analysis. Ca-SR proteins were detected in rat ventricular and atrial tissues as well as in isolated cardiac myocytes. Anti-(Ca-SR) Ig did not detect any specific bands after preadsorption with standard Ca-SR antigens. An immunohistochemistry study revealed the presence of Ca-SR in rat cardiac as well as other tissues. An increase in extracellular calcium or gadolinium induced a concentration-dependent sustained increase in [Ca2+]i in isolated ventricular myocytes from adult rats. Spermine (1-10 mm) also increased [Ca2+]i. Pre-treatment of cardiac myocytes with thapsigargin or U73122 abolished the extracellular calcium, gadolinium or spermine-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. The blockade of Na+/Ca2+ exchanger or voltage-dependent calcium channels did not alter the extracellular calcium-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. Finally, extracellular calcium, gadolinium and spermine all increased intracellular inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) levels. Our results demonstrated that Ca-SR was expressed in cardiac tissue and cardiomyocytes and its function was regulated by extracellular calcium and spermine.

Abstract
Over the past decade, advances in molecular tools, stem cell differentiation, osteoclast and osteoblast signaling mechanisms, and genetically manipulated mice models have resulted in major breakthroughs in understanding osteoclast biology. This review focuses on key advances in our understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying the formation, function, and survival of osteoclasts. These include key signals mediating osteoclast differentiation, including PU.1, RANK, CSF-1/c-fms, and src, and key specializations of the osteoclast including HCl secretion driven by H+-ATPase and the secretion of collagenolytic enzymes including cathepsin K and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). These pathways and highly expressed proteins provide targets for specific therapies to modify bone degradation. The main outstanding issues, basic and translational, will be considered in relation to the osteoclast as a target for antiresorptive therapies.

Abstract
An elevation in the extracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](o)) is a key signal for bone remodeling by inhibiting the resorbing activity of osteoclasts. The [Ca(2+)](o)-sensing responses include a variety of morphological and functional changes, but the underlying mechanisms are yet to be defined. This study was aimed at investigating the [Ca(2+)](o)-sensing mechanisms leading to the activation of the Cl(-) channel in murine osteoclasts. A rise in either Ca(2+) or Gd(3+) activated an outwardly rectifying Cl(-) (OR(cl)) channel reversibly and dose-dependently, which was characterized by rapid activation kinetics, little inactivation, and blockage by DIDS. The concentration required for a half-maximal response was estimated to be >20-30 mmol/L for Ca(2+). Intracellular dialysis with an ATP-free pipette solution or application of an actin destabilizer, cytochalasin D, decreased the [Ca(2+)](o)-activated OR(cl) current. Substitution of extracellular Na(+) by an impermeable cation, N-methyl-D-glucamine(+), inhibited the [Ca(2+)](o)-activated OR(cl) channel, suggesting that the activation depended on extracellular Na(+). A blocker for the Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger, 2'4'-dichlorobenzamil hydrochloride (DCB), inhibited the [Ca(2+)](o)-activated OR(cl) channel as well. Although 10 mmol/L Ca(2+) activated the OR(cl) current only slightly at a standard intracellular pH (7.3), decreasing pH by dialyzing cells with an acidic pipette solution (pH 6.6) enhanced the [Ca(2+)](o)-activated OR(cl) current. This potentiation by cell acidosis was eliminated by amiloride, a blocker for the Na(+)-H(+) exchanger. Zinc ion (0.1 mmol/L) and a polycation, neomycin (0.2 mmol/L), activated the OR(cl) current at intracellular pH 6.6, whereas the effects of those cations were negligible at intracellular pH 7.3. These results suggest that [Ca(2+)](o)-sensing mechanisms, leading to activation of the OR(cl) channel in murine osteoclasts, are regulated by ATP and actin cytoskeletal organization, and are sensitized greatly by cell acidosis. Contributions of Na(+)-dependent transporters in this activating process are examined in the context of a possible intermediate signal of cell swelling caused by Na(+) influx.

Abstract
We predict that the type 2 ryanodine receptor isoform (RyR-2) located in the osteoclastic membrane functions as a Ca(2+) influx channel and as a divalent cation (Ca(2+)) sensor. Cytosolic Ca(2+) measurements revealed Ca(2+) influx in osteoclasts at depolarized membrane potentials. The cytosolic Ca(2+) change was, as expected, not seen in Ca(2+)-free medium and was blocked by the RyR modulator ryanodine. In contrast, at basal membrane potentials (approximately 25 mV) ryanodine triggered extracellular Ca(2+) influx that was blocked by Ni(2+). In parallel, single-channel recordings obtained from inside-out excised patches revealed a divalent cation-selective approximately 60-pS conductance in symmetric solutions of Ba-aspartate [Ba-Asp; reversal potential (E(rev)) approximately 0 mV]. In the presence of a Ba(2+) gradient, i.e., with Ba-Asp in the pipette and Na-Asp in the bath, channel conductance increased to approximately 120 pS and E(rev) shifted to 21 mV. The conductance was tentatively classified as a RyR-gated Ca(2+) channel as it displayed characteristic metastable states and was sensitive to ruthenium red and a specific anti-RyR antibody, Ab(34). To demonstrate that extracellular Ca(2+) sensing occurred at the osteoclastic surface rather than intracellularly, we performed protease protection assays using pronase. Preincubation with pronase resulted in markedly attenuated cytosolic Ca(2+) signals triggered by either Ni(2+) (5 mM) or Cd(2+) (50 microM). Finally, intracellular application of antiserum Ab(34) potently inhibited divalent cation sensing. Together, these results strongly suggest the existence of 1) a membrane-resident Ca(2+) influx channel sensitive to RyR modulators; 2) an extracellular, as opposed to intracellular, divalent cation activation site; and 3) a cytosolic CaM-binding regulatory site for RyR. It is likely therefore that the surface RyR-2 not only gates Ca(2+) influx but also functions as a sensor for extracellular divalent cations.

Abstract
Osteoclast resorptive activity occurs despite the presence of extremely high levels of ionized calcium ([Ca2+]) within the osteoclast hemivacuole, which is generated as a by-product of its resorptive activity. Previous in vitro observations have shown that increases in extracellular [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]e) in the surrounding medium can inhibit the osteoclast resorptive activity. Therefore, it has been suggested that the osteoclast acts as a "sensor" for [Ca2+]e, and that high [Ca2+]e leads to an increase in intracellular [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i), thereby inhibiting osteoclasts in a negative feedback manner. In this report we have carried out an experimental and theoretical analysis of calcium disposal during osteoclast activity to evaluate how in vitro models relate to in vivo osteoclast activity, where it is possible that high [Ca2+]e may be present in the hemivacuole but not over the nonresorbing surface of the cell. Scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) studies of [Ca2+] and superoxide anion (O2.-) generation by bone-resorbing osteoclasts on the surface of a bovine cortical bone slice were compared with microspectofluorometric measurements of the levels of [Ca2+]i in single osteoclasts and the effect of [Ca2+]i on various aspects of osteoclast function. The generation of O2.- by the osteoclasts has been shown to be positively correlated with osteoclast resorptive function and can therefore serve as an index of acute changes in osteoclast activity. The SECM of bone-resorbing osteoclasts at the surface of a bone slice revealed a continuous steady-state release of Ca2+. Even after prolonged incubation lasting 3 h the near-surface [Ca2+]e in the solution above the cell remained <2 mM. The SECM real-time measurement data were consistent with the osteoclast acting as a conduit for continuous Ca2+ disposal from the osteoclast-bone interface. We conclude that the osteoclast distinguishes [Ca2+]e in the hemivacuole and in the extracellular fluid above the cell which we denote [Ca2+]e. We found that an increase in [Ca2+]i may be associated with activation; inhibition; or be without effect on O2.- generation, bone-matrix, or bone resorption. Similarly, osteoclast adhesion and bone-resorbing activity was affected by [Ca2+]e' but showed no correlation with [Ca2+]i. The data suggest the existence of functional compartmentalization of [Ca2+]i within the osteoclast, where elevated calcium may have an inhibitory, excitatory, or no effect on the overall osteoclast activity while exerting a selective effect on different functional modalities. These observations lead to the conclusion that far from being inhibited by Ca2+ generated, the osteoclast by virtue of the observed functional compartmentalization is highly adapted at carrying out its activity even when the level of [Ca2+] in resorptive lacunae is elevated.

Abstract
Experimental studies have shown that acute otitis media caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae alters modeling dynamics in bone tissue structures surrounding the middle ear cavity. Initial resorption of bone is followed by formative activity, seen as massive osteoneogenesis. However, neither resorptive nor formative activity occurs in the otic capsule, supporting the existence of a perilymphatic zone of specialized bone. This study investigates adaptive bone modeling in acute otitis media caused by other bacteria frequently encountered in this disease. Seventy-five rats were inoculated with either non-typeable or type b Haemophilus influenzae, or Moraxella catarrhalis (25 rats in each group). Five rats from each group were sacrificed on days 4, 8, 16, 60 and 180 post-inoculation. Qualitative as well as quantitative histopathology revealed increasing apposition of new bone on both sides of the original bony wall of the middle ear bulla, i.e. at the inner and outer periosteum. Remodeling activity was seen on later days of sacrifice, as typical osteone (Haversian system) formation. Measured bone thickness in four anatomically well-defined localities progressed to a peak 2 months post-inoculation, followed by some degree of normalization. However, bone thickness was still massively increased 6 months after the acute incident. Except in the otic capsule, resorptive and formative activity was found in all bone tissue structures surrounding the middle ear cavity. These findings were irrespective of the type of inoculated bacteria. However, non-typeable or type b Haemophilus influenzae induces significantly more new bone formation than Moraxella catarrhalis. We conclude that acute otitis media caused by either of the bacteria is accompanied by massive and progressive net osteoneogenesis, already evident on day 4 and peaking 2 months post-inoculation, followed by some degree of normalization. Non-typeable and type b Haemophilus influenzae induce more new bone formation than Moraxella catarrhalis, whereas other features of bone histomorphology were equivalent. The present findings further support the existence of a perilymphatic zone of specialized bone.

Abstract
Although the importance of mechanical stress on bone metabolism is well known, the intracellular mechanisms involved are not well understood. To evaluate the role of mechanical stress on osteoclastic function, we investigated the effects of membrane stretch induced by osmotic cell swelling on cytosolic Ca(2+) and bone resorption activity in freshly isolated rat osteoclasts. The intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) was measured by fura-2 microspectrofluorimetry. Exposure to hypotonic solution (211-151 mOsm) caused cell swelling and reversibly increased [Ca(2+)](i) in the osteoclasts. This [Ca(2+)](i) increase was abolished by the omission of extracellular Ca(2+), but was not affected by the depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores. Gd(3+) and La(3+) inhibited the swelling-induced [Ca(2+)](i) increase, while nifedipine and Bay K 8644 did not. Neither protein kinase A inhibitors (Rp-cAMP, H-89) nor protein kinase C inhibitors (staurosporine, chelerythrine) affected the [Ca(2+)](i) increase. Membrane depolarization was not essential for the [Ca(2+)](i) increase either. To assess the effects of membrane stretch on the bone resorption activity of osteoclasts, we investigated actin ring formation, the intracellular structure responsible for bone resorption in osteoclasts. Hypotonic stimulation acutely disrupted actin ring formation in an extracellular Ca(2+)-dependent manner, and this disruption was prevented by Gd(3+). Moreover, Ca(2+) ionophore (ionomycin) also induced disruption of the actin rings. These results indicate that mechanical stress inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption activity, possibly via the elevation of [Ca(2+)](i) through stretch-activated, non-selective cation channels.

Abstract
We previously showed that Ca2+-sensing receptors (CaRs) are expressed in chondrogenic RCJ3.1C5.18 (C5.18) cells and that changes in extracellular [Ca2+]([Ca2+]o) modulate nodule formation and chondrogenic gene expression. In the present study, we detected expression of CaRs in mouse, rat, and bovine cartilage and bone by in situ hybridization, immunocytochemistry, immunoblotting, and RT-PCR; and we tested the effects of CaR agonists on signal transduction in chondrogenic and osteogenic cell lines. In situ hybridization detected CaR transcripts in most articular chondrocytes and in the hypertrophic chondrocytes of the epiphyseal growth plate. Expression of CaR transcripts was weak or absent, however, in proliferating and maturing chondrocytes in the growth plate. In bone, CaR transcripts were present in osteoblasts, osteocytes, and bone marrow cells, but rarely in osteoclasts. A complementary DNA was amplified from mouse growth plate cartilage, which was highly homologous to the human parathyroid CaR sequence. Immunocytochemistry of cartilage and bone with CaR antisera confirmed these findings. Western blotting revealed specific bands (approximately 140-190 kDa) in membrane fractions isolated from growth plate cartilage, primary cultures of rat chondrocytes, and several osteogenic cell lines (SaOS-2, UMR-106, ROS 17/2.8, and MC3T3-E1). InsP responses to high [Ca2+]o were evident in C5.18 cells and all osteogenic cell lines tested except for SaOS-2 cells. In the latter, high [Ca2+]o reduced PTH-induced cAMP formation. Raising [Ca2+]o also increased intracellular free [Ca2+] in SaOS-2 and C5.18 cells. These studies confirm expression of CaRs in cartilage and bone and support the concept that changes in [Ca2+]o may couple to signaling pathways important in skeletal metabolism.

Abstract
Recent evidence suggests that extracellular Ca2+ may modulate cell function in mineralized tissue. To determine whether dentinogenic cells, in particular, are sensitive to extracellular Ca2+, fura-2 microfluorometry was used to monitor intracellular calcium levels in odontoblasts freshly isolated from rat incisor. In response to applications of 0.5-4.0 mM extracellular calcium (CaCl2), most odontoblasts (84%; 107/128) showed an increase in intracellular calcium. For the majority of these cells (70%; 75/107), the typical response was biphasic; there was an initial, transient increase in intracellular calcium which reached peak levels within 30-50 s and decayed rapidly, followed by a slower (> 300 s) recovery toward basal levels. In general, the response of these cells to calcium was repeatable and the mean calcium concentration for the half-maximal response was approximately 1.3 mM. This effect could be partially blocked by either 200 microM lanthanum, a nonspecific blocker of Ca2+ channels, or 20 microM dantrolene, a potent inhibitor of Ca2+ release from internal stores. Used in combination, lanthanum, and dantrolene nearly abolished the calcium response completely. In addition, this response was sensitive to the dihydropyridine-sensitive calcium channel blocking agent nicardipine (60 microM), indicating a role for voltage-gated calcium channels during these events. These results show that odontoblasts respond to external calcium through mechanisms involving both influx of external calcium as well as release of calcium from internal stores and suggest a role for extracellular calcium in regulating the function of these cells.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) triggers marked osteoclast retraction which closely resembles that due to Ca2+. The effect of Ca2+ has been attributed to a stimulated release of NO. Here, we show for the first time, by direct measurement with a microsensor, that osteoclasts do indeed produce NO and that this production is enhanced by a high Ca2+. We also show that the Ca2+ ionophore, A23187, mimics the latter. Furthermore, osteoclasts on dentine produce more NO than osteoclasts on glass and NO release from dentine-plated osteoclasts is much less sensitive to stimulation by Ca2+. Finally, the microsomal Ca2+ store-depleting agent, thapsigargin, attenuates NO release only from osteoclasts on glass, suggesting that stored Ca2+ has the dominant effect in modulating NO release from non-resorbing cells. NO is a powerful inhibitor of bone resorption: a direct demonstration of its production is therefore strong evidence for a role in modulating osteoclast function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A number of middle ear diseases are associated with pathologic bone modeling, either formative or resorptive. As such, the pathogenesis of a sclerotic mastoid has been controversial for decades. Experimental studies on acute middle ear infection have shown varying degrees of both osteoresorption and osteoneogenesis. This study presents data on the dynamics of bone modeling in a rat model of acute pneumococcal otitis media, studied longitudinally from day 1 through 6 months after inoculation. RESULTS Qualitative, as well as quantitative histopathology revealed initial osteoresorption, followed by increasing apposition of new bone in the middle ear cavity, initiated at the outer periosteum. Measured bone thickness in four anatomically distinct locations peaked 3 months after inoculation, followed by some degree of normalization. However, bone thickness was still massively increased 6 months after the acute incident. Except in perilymphatic spaces of the otic capsule, resorptive and formative activity were found in all bone tissue structures surrounding the middle ear cavity, including the bony external auditory canal and the ossicles. CONCLUSION These findings may support the existence of a perilymphatic barrier of specialized bone and suggest that even a single episode of acute infection may alter properties of ossicular chain conduction. The authors conclude that acute otitis media is accompanied by massive and progressing net osteoneogenesis, already evident at 3 days and peaking 3 months after inoculation, followed by some degree of normalization. This is conceivably in support of the environmental theory of mastoid pneumatization, claiming inflammatory disease as the cause of a sclerotic mastoid.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are exposed to unusually high, millimolar, Ca2+ concentrations and can "sense" changes in their ambient Ca2+ concentration during resorption. This results in a sharp cystolic Ca2+ increase through both Ca2+ release and Ca2+ influx. The rise in cystolic Ca2+ is transduced finally into an inhibition of bone resorption. We have shown that a type 2 ryanodine receptor isoform, expressed uniquely in the osteoblast plasma membrane, functions as a Ca2+ influx channel, and possibly as a Ca2+ sensor. Ryanodine receptors are ordinarily microsomal membrane Ca2+ release channels. They have only recently been shown to be expressed a other sites, including nuclear membranes. At the latter site, ryanodine receptors gate nucleoplasmic Ca2+ influx. Nucleoplasmic Ca2+, in turn, regulates key nuclear processes, including gene expression and apoptosis. Here, we review potential mechanisms underlying the recognition, movement, and actions of Ca2+ in the osteoclast.

Abstract
1. An outwardly rectifying Cl- (ORCl) current of murine osteoclasts was activated by hypotonic stimulation. The current was characterized by rapid activation, little inactivation, strong outward rectification, blockage by DIDS and permeability to organic acids (pyruvate and glutamate). 2. The hypotonically activated ORCl current was inhibited by intracellular dialysis with an ATP-free pipette solution, but not by replacement of ATP with a poorly hydrolysable ATP analogue adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate). The current amplitude was reduced when intracellular alkalinity increased over the pH range 6.6-8.0. 3. Intracellular application of cytochalasin D occasionally activated the ORCl current without hypotonic stress, but inhibited activation of the ORCl current by hypotonic stimulation. The hypotonically activated ORCl current was unaffected by a non-actin-depolymerizing cytochalasin, chaetoglobosin C, but partially inhibited by deoxyribonuclease I. 4. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ inhibited activation of the ORCl current by hypotonic shock, but did not reduce the current once activated. The hypotonically activated ORCl current was partially decreased by intracellular dialysis with 20 mM EGTA. 5. With 10 mM Ca2+ in the extracellular medium, the ORCl current was activated in response to more minor decreases in osmolarity than with 1 mM Ca2+. The increased sensitivity to hypotonicity was mimicked by increasing the intracellular Ca2+ level (pCa 6.5). 6. These results suggest that hypotonic stimulation and a rise in the extracellular Ca2+ level synergistically activate the ORCl channel of murine osteoclasts, and that the activating process is modified by multiple intracellular factors (pH, ATP and actin cytoskeletal organization).

Abstract
1. The effect of extracellularly applied divalent cations upon cytosolic Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]) was investigated in fura-2-loaded mouse Leydig (TM3) cells. 2. The extracellular application of Ca2+ (2.5-15 mM) or Ni2+ (0.5-5 mM) elicited concentration-dependent elevations in cytosolic [Ca2+] that were followed by decays to baseline levels. Extracellular Mg2+ (0.8-15 mM) failed to influence cytosolic [Ca2+]. 3. Conditioning applications of Ca2+ (2.5-10 mM), Mg2+ (2.5-15 mM) or Ni2+ (0.5-5 mM) all attenuated the cytosolic Ca2+ response to a subsequent test application of 5 mM [Ni2+]. 4. The amplitude of Ni2+-induced cytosolic Ca2+ signals remained constant in low-Ca2+ solutions. Such findings suggest a participation of Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. In parallel, depletion of Ca2+ stores by either ionomycin (5 microM, in low-Ca2+ solutions) or thapsigargin (4 microM) abolished or attenuated Ni2+-induced Ca2+ transients. 5. Ionomycin (5 microM) elevated cytosolic [Ca2+] in Ca2+-free solutions even after prior Ni2+ application, indicating the presence of Ni2+-insensitive stores. 6. Caffeine (250 and 500 microM) elevated cytosolic [Ca2+] and attenuated Ni2+-induced Ca2+ release. Furthermore, TM3 cells stained intensely with a specific anti-ryanodine receptor antiserum, Ab34. These findings suggest that Ca2+ release is regulated by ryanodine receptors. 7. Both membrane depolarization and hyperpolarization, brought about by changes in extracellular [K+] ([K+]e) in the presence of valinomycin (5 microM), altered the waveform of the Ni2+-induced cytosolic Ca2+ signal. Hyperpolarization, in addition, diminished the response magnitude. Such voltage-induced response modulation localizes the regulatory events to the Leydig cell plasma membrane. 8. We propose the existence of a cell surface divalent cation (Ca2+) receptor in Leydig cells, the activation of which triggers Ca2+ fluxes through ryanodine receptors.

Abstract
We describe a physiologically significant mechanism through which interleukin-6 (IL-6) and a rising ambient Ca2+ interact to regulate osteoclastic bone resorption. VOXEL-based confocal microscopy of nonpermeabilized osteoclasts incubated with anti- IL-6 receptor antibodies revealed intense, strictly peripheral plasma membrane fluorescence. IL-6 receptor expression in single osteoclasts was confirmed by in situ reverse transcriptase PCR histochemistry. IL-6 (5 ng/l to 10 microg/l), but not IL-11 (10 and 100 microg/l), reversed the inhibition of osteoclastic bone resorption induced by high extracellular Ca2+ (15 mM). The IL-6 effect was abrogated by excess soluble IL-6 receptor (500 microg/l). Additionally, IL-6 (5 pg/l to 10 microg/l) inhibited cytosolic Ca2+ signals triggered by high Ca2+ or Ni2+. In separate experiments, osteoclasts incubated in 10 mM Ca2+ or on bone released more IL-6 than those in 1.25 mM Ca2+. Furthermore, IL-6 mRNA histostaining was more intense in osteoclasts in 10 or 20 mM Ca2+ than cells in 1.25 mM Ca2+. Similarly, IL-6 receptor mRNA histostaining was increased in osteoclasts incubated in 5 or 10 mM Ca2+. Thus, while high Ca2+ enhances IL-6 secretion, the released IL-6 attenuates Ca2+ sensing and reverses inhibition of resorption by Ca2+. Such an autocrine-paracrine loop may sustain osteoclastic activity in the face of an inhibitory Ca2+ level generated locally during resorption.

Abstract
Cytosolic calcium modulates the activity of osteoclasts, large multinucleate cells that resorb bone. Nuclear events, such as gene transcription, are also calcium-regulated in these cells, and fluorescence imaging has suggested that calcium signals produced by some stimuli are specifically targeted to, or amplified within, osteoclast nuclei. We used two alternative techniques of dye loading to examine the changes of intracellular calcium induced in rat osteoclasts by three stimuli. Osteoclasts loaded with the calcium indicator Fura-2 by the acetoxymethyl (AM) ester technique appeared to display marked nuclear calcium amplification. During stimulation with integrin-binding peptides, ATP, or high extracellular calcium, fluorescence ratios recorded from the nuclei rose higher than did ratios recorded from extranuclear regions. In contrast, nuclear calcium amplification was not observed after AM loading in the presence of the anion transport inhibitor sulfinpyrazone, nor in osteoclasts injected with Fura-2 conjugated to a high MW dextran. In these cells, nuclear fluorescence ratios were equal to the extranuclear values at all times: upon stimulation by an agonist, the nuclear and cytosolic calcium concentrations increased by the same amount. The calcium changes seen in stimulated osteoclasts can no longer be taken as evidence for the general validity of the phenomenon of nuclear calcium amplification.

Abstract
We report the effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) on the responsiveness of osteoclasts to cellular, hormonal, and ionic signals. Osteoclasts isolated from neonatal rat long bones were dispersed onto either slices of devitalised cortical bone (for the measurement of resorptive activity) or glass coverslips (for the determination of the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration, [Ca2+]). Osteoclasts were also cocultured on bone with osteoblastlike, UMR-106 cells. Bone resorption was quantitated by scanning electron microscopy and computer-assisted morphometry. PEMF application to osteoblast-osteoclast cocultures for 18 hr resulted in a twofold stimulation of bone resorption. In contrast, resorption by isolated osteoclasts remained unchanged in the presence of PEMFs, suggesting that osteoblasts were necessary for the PEMF-induced resorption simulation seen in osteoblast-osteoclast cocultures. Furthermore, the potent inhibitory action of the hormone calcitonin on bone resorption was unaffected by PEMF application. However, PEMFs completely reversed another quite distinct action of calcitonin on the osteoclast: its potent inhibitory effect on the activation of the divalent cation-sensing (or Ca2+) receptor. For these experiments, we made fura 2-based measurements of cytosolic [Ca2+] in single osteoclasts in response to the application of a known Ca2+ receptor agonist, Ni2+. We first confirmed that activation of the osteoclast Ca2+ receptor by Ni2+ (5 mM) resulted in a characteristic monophasic elevation of cytosolic [Ca2+]. As shown previously, this response was attenuated strongly by calcitonin at concentrations between 0.03 and 3 nM but remained intact in response to PEMFs. PEMF application, however, prevented the inhibitory effect of calcitonin on Ni2+-induced cytosolic Ca2+ elevation. This suggested that the fields disrupted the interaction between the calcitonin and Ca2+ receptor systems. In conclusion, we have shown that electromagnetic fields stimulate bone resorption through an action on the osteoblast and, by abolishing the inhibitory effects of calcitonin, also restore the responsiveness of osteoclasts to divalent cations.

Abstract
Upon removal of its sialic acid or galactose residue, vitamin D-binding protein (DBP) becomes a potent macrophage-activating factor, DBP-MAF. Here we document a new function of DBP-MAF and its parent molecule, DBP, in osteoclast control. We show that all DBPs potently inhibit extracellular Ca2+ (cation) sensing at low nanomolar concentrations with the following rank order of potency: native DBP = sialidase-treated DBP > beta-galactosidase-treated DBP. This attenuation remains unaffected despite co-incubation either with the native DBP ligand, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, or with an asialoglycoprotein receptor modulator, asialoorosomucoid. Taken together, the results suggest that circulating DBP may play a role in the systemic control of osteoclastic bone resorption, a hitherto unrecognized action of the protein.

Abstract
The effects of an increase of extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ on the membrane properties were examined in freshly isolated rat osteoclasts using the perforated patch-clamp method. Spread-type osteoclasts plated on a cover glass predominantly displayed an inwardly rectifying K+ current in a normal saline solution. Application of an extracellular high-Ca2+ solution transiently increased the membrane conductance in 15 (71%) of 21 osteoclasts. The external high Ca2+-induced current reversed at the membrane potential of -4.8+/-2.4 mV (n=8). The change of intracellular Cl-concentration did not affect the reversal potential, suggesting that the response was due to a nonselective cation conductance. Application of a calcium ionophore, ionomycin (3 micromol/L), continuously increased the membrane conductance, and the reversal potential was -12.5+/-5.0 mV (n=5). Extracellularly applied neomycin (100 micromol/L) and Gd3+ (100 micromol/L), which are agonists of Ca2+-sensing receptor (CaR), also increased the membrane conductance. These results suggest that rat osteoclasts detect high extracellular Ca2+ by an extracellular Ca2+-sensing mechanism functionally similar to the CaR in the cell surface, release Ca2+ from the internal stores, and display the activation of Ca2+-dependent cation channels in the cell membrane.

Abstract
Bone metabolism consists of osteoblast-mediated bone formation coupled to osteoclastic resorption of bone. Osteoclastic bone resorption plays an important role in normal skeletal development and the maintenance of its integrity throughout life. Although osteoclastic activity is thought to be under the control of feedback regulation by extracellular cations, the molecular mechanism of detecting extracellular cations within the bone microenvironment remains to be clarified. In the present study we showed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Northern blot analysis that cultured mature osteoclasts express the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) mRNA. The nucleotide sequence of rabbit osteoclast CaSR was approximately 90% identical to that of CaSR cDNA from human, bovine, and rat parathyroid glands. Moreover, the activity of osteoclastic bone resorption, as determined by pit formation, was regulated by extracellular calcium ion as well as its agonists that are known to act through the CaSR. We conclude that CaSR, homologous to that identified in parathyroid glands, is present in mature osteoclasts and calcium ion released from bone may directly regulate osteoclastic bone resorption.

Abstract
The cloning of a G protein-coupled, extracellular calcium (Ca2+e)-sensing receptor (CaR) from bovine parathyroid provided direct evidence that Ca2+e-sensing can occur through receptor-mediated activation of G proteins and their associated downstream regulators of cellular function. CaR transcripts and protein are present in various tissues of humans and other mammals that are involved in Ca2+e homeostasis, including parathyroid, kidney, and thyroidal C-cells. The present study was performed to determine whether bone marrow cells express the CaR, since cells within the marrow space could be exposed to substantial changes in Ca2+e related to bone turnover. Using DNA and RNA probes from the human parathyroid CaR cDNA, we identified CaR transcripts of 5.2 and approximately 4.0 kilobases by Northern analysis of poly(A+) RNA from low-density mononuclear cells isolated from whole human bone marrow that are putatively enriched in marrow progenitor cells, including bone cell precursors. In situ hybridization also identified CaR transcripts in the same cell preparations. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction demonstrated > 99% nucleotide identity between transcripts from human bone marrow cells and the corresponding regions of the human CaR cDNA. Antisera specific for several different regions within the extracellular domain of the CaR were reactive with low-density human marrow cells that were either adherent or nonadherent to plastic. About one-third of the adherent, CaR-immunoreactive cells were also positive for alkaline phosphatase, a nonspecific marker of preosteoblasts, osteoblasts, and assorted cells of the colony-forming unit-fibroblast lineage. In addition, a substantial fraction (approximately 60%) of low density murine marrow cells cultured for 1 week at 4.8 mM Ca2+e expressed both CaR immunoreactivity and nonspecific esterase, an enzyme expressed by monocyte/macrophages and fibroblasts. Finally, erythroid precursors and megakaryocytes from murine marrow as well as blood platelets expressed abundant CaR immunoreactivity, while peripheral blood erythrocytes and most polymorphonuclear leukocytes did not. These studies indicate that the CaR is present in low-density mononuclear bone marrow cells as well as in cells of several hematopoietic lineages and could potentially play a role in controlling the function of various cell types within the marrow space.

Abstract
Ionic channels regulated by extracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]o) were examined in freshly isolated rabbit osteoclasts. K+ current was suppressed by intracellular and extracellular Cs+ ions. In this condition, high [Ca2+]o evoked an outwardly rectifying current with a reversal potential of about -25 mV. When the concentration of extracellular Cl ions was altered, the reversal potential of the outwardly rectifying current shifted as predicted by the Nernst equation. 4',4-diisothiocyanostilbene-2' 2-disulphonic acid (DIDS) inhibited the outwardly rectifying current. These results indicated that this current was carried through Cl- channels. Cd2+ or Ni2+ caused a transient activation of the Cl- current in contrast to the sustained activation elicited by Ca2+. Intracellular 20 mM ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) inhibited the divalent cation-induced Cl- current. Either when the osmolarity of extracellular medium was increased, or when 100 microM cAMP was dissolved in the patch pipette solution, high [Ca2+]o still elicited the Cl- current, indicating that the divalent cation-induced Cl- current was carried through Ca(2+)-activated Cl- channels. Under perforated whole cell clamp extracellular divalent cations evoked the Cl- current, indicating that the activation of Cl- current did not arise from possible leakage of divalent cations from the extracellular medium under the whole cell clamp condition. This experiment further excluded a possible activation of volume-sensitive Cl- channels under whole cell clamp. Intracellular application of guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) activated the Cl current and it was inhibited by intracellular 20 mM EGTA, suggesting that the activation of Cl current was mediated through a G protein, and that an increase in [Ca2+]i was critical for the activation of Cl-channels. A protein phosphatase inhibitor, okadaic acid (100 nM), caused an irreversible activation of the Cl current, suggesting that protein phosphatase 1 or 2A was involved in the regulation of Ca(2+)-activated Cl- channels.

Abstract
In addition to their antibacterial effects, tetracyclines may inhibit interstitial collagenase activity and bone resorption. These properties were assessed morphometrically using minocycline (25 and 50 mg/kg/day given by the IM route) in a rat model of synchronized remodeling in which osteoclastic resorption peaks 4 days after the activating event (the extractions of the upper molars) along the antagonist mandibular cortex, a zone undergoing physiologically active formation. During the first 2 days of activation, minocycline at the two doses impaired very significantly the disorganization of both the osteoid seam and the layer of osteoblasts, a prerequisite to give osteoclasts access to the mineralized bone surface. The number of readily identifiable osteoblasts decreased slightly during this period, suggesting that minocycline prevented their transformation into lining cells. Their synthetic activity, as estimated by the size of the cells and their nucleus, appeared relatively preserved too, mostly with the higher dose. AT the peak of osteoclasia, the bone surfaces undergoing remodeling were significantly decreased in the minocycline-treated groups. The resorption surface was reduced (P < 0.0003) as well as the number of osteoclasts (P < 0.0007), which were also significantly smaller. Their resorbing activity was dramatically affected as well: they excavated lacunae whose area was significantly reduced by over 70%. In addition, formation was still a prominent activity in the treated animals. These data are compatible with the inhibition at the early stages of activation of an osteoblast-secreted collagenase whose action may be the elimination of the osteoid seam. The inhibition of an osteoclast collagenase and/or of a bone matrix bound-collagenase may be responsible for the reduction in lacunar size. A direct effect of minocycline on osteoclast resorptive activity may also participate in the low resorption profile, as tetracyclines are known to interfere with the intracellular [Ca2+].

Abstract
In this article we have overviewed recent important advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in osteoclastic bone resorption. Specifically, new findings relating to osteoclast activation and the process of bone resorption are reviewed and a current overall model of how osteoclasts resorb bone is presented. Controversial research topics concerning the regulation of osteoclast activity are also critically discussed.

Abstract
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) reside in microsomal membranes where they gate Ca2+ release in response to changes in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. In the osteoclast, a divalent cation sensor, the Ca2+ receptor (CaR), located within the cell's plasma membrane, monitors changes in the extracellular Ca2+ concentration. Here we show that a RyR-like molecule is a functional component of this receptor. We have demonstrated that [3H] ryanodine specifically binds to freshly isolated rat osteoclasts. The binding was displaced by ryanodine itself, the CaR agonist Ni2+ and the RyR antagonist ruthenium red. The latter also inhibited cytosolic Ca2+ elevations induced by Ni2+. In contrast, the responses to Ni2+ were strongly potentiated by an antiserum Ab129 raised to an epitope located within the channel-forming domain of the type II RyR. The antiserum also stained the surface of intact, unfixed, trypan blue-negative osteoclasts. Serial confocal sections and immunogold scanning electron microscopy confirmed a plasma membrane localization of this staining. Antiserum Ab34 directed to a putatively intracellular RyR epitope expectedly did not stain live osteoclasts nor did it potentiate CaR activation. It did, however, stain fixed, permeabilized cells in a distinctive cytoplasmic pattern. We conclude that an RyR-like molecule resides within the osteoclast plasma membrane and plays in important role in extracellular Ca2+ sensing.

Abstract
Many cell types respond to mechanical membrane perturbation with intracellular Ca2+ responses. Stretch-activated (SA) ion channels may be involved in such responses. We studied the occurrence as well as the underlying mechanisms of cell membrane stretch-evoked responses in fetal chicken osteoclasts using separate and simultaneous patch-clamp and Ca2+ imaging measurements. In the present paper, evidence is presented showing that such responses involve a self-reinforcing mechanism including SA channel activity, Ca(2+)-activated K+ (KCa) channel activity, membrane potential changes and local and general intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) increases. The model we propose is that during membrane stretch, both SA channels and KCa channels open at membrane potential values near the resting membrane potential. SA channel characterization showed that these SA channels are permeable to Ca2+. During membrane stretch, Ca2+ influx through SA channels and hyperpolarization due to KCa channel activity serve as positive feedback, leading ultimately to a Ca2+ wave and cell membrane hyperpolarization. This self-reinforcing mechanism is turned off upon SA channel closure after cessation of membrane stretch. We suggest that this Ca2+ entry mechanism plays a role in regulation of osteoclast activity.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are known to possess a divalent cation-sensitive receptor, the Ca2+ receptor (CaR). The latter monitors changes in the local Ca2+ concentration generated as a result of hydroxyapatite dissolution. CaR activation elevates cytosolic [Ca2+] and thereby inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption. Recent studies have used Ni2+ as a surrogate CaR agonist to elicit changes in cytosolic [Ca2+]. This article examines the effects of membrane potential changes on the kinetics of the cytosolic [Ca2+] signal resulting from such Ni(2+)-induced CaR activation. Membrane potential was altered through variations in the extracellular [K] in combination with applications of the K+ ionophore, valinomycin. Membrane potential changes were confirmed by independent electrophysiological patch clamp studies of whole osteoclasts. The application of valinomycin produced a distinct, sustained elevation of cytosolic [Ca2+] in single fura 2-loaded cells, a "primary" response. This response was independent of valinomycin concentration (between 5 nM to 5 microM) and persisted in Ca(2+)-free, EGTA-containing solutions. It also persisted both in high (105 mM) and low (5 mM) extracellular [K+]. A gradual "secondary" elevation of cytosolic [Ca2+] then followed with the continued application of valinomycin, but this was eliminated by sequestering the extracellular [Ca2+] or by increasing extracellular [K+] from 5 to 105 mM. In a separate set of experiments, the presence of 5 microM [valinomycin]-([K+] = 5 mM) prolonged the cytosolic [Ca2+] signal elicited by 50 microM-[Ni2+] application. These prolonged kinetics persisted in low extracellular [Ca2+] (zero-added Ca2+), but reverted to a rapid time-course in the presence of 105 mM-[K+] or at higher [Ni2+] (500 microM and 5 mM). The experiments thus indicate that membrane voltage modifies the kinetics of CaR activation by Ni2+ and therefore suggests that the CaR is an integral protein in the osteoclast surface membrane.

Abstract
1. Regulation of membrane potential by extracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]o) was examined in freshly isolated rabbit osteoclasts. 2. The resting membrane potential of osteoclasts was close to the K+ equilibrium potential in 1 mM Ca2+ medium. An elevation of [Ca2+]o caused membrane depolarization, accompanied by a decrease in the membrane conductance. 3. The inwardly rectifying K+ current observed under voltage clamp was dose-dependently inhibited by an elevation of [Ca2+]o, which explained the membrane depolarization caused by high [Ca2+]o. 4. Other divalent cations also inhibited the inwardly rectifying K+ current with the following order of potency: Ca2+ < Ni2+ < or = Co2+ < Cd2+. 5. In the presence of intracellular GTP gamma S the inwardly rectifying K+ current was irreversibly inhibited by [Ca2+]o, whereas the inhibition of the inwardly rectifying K+ current was greatly attenuated by intracellular application of GDP beta S. 6. Pertussis toxin (PTX) treatment did not abolish the inhibition of the inwardly rectifying K+ current caused by [Ca2+]o. 7. These results suggest that inwardly rectifying K+ channels in osteoclasts were regulated by a PTX-insensitive G-protein, which was coupled to the putative Ca2+ receptor or sensor on the cell membrane.

Abstract
The present study was undertaken to clarify the role of extracellular calcium on osteoblast activation. It was found that bradykinin and thrombin induced synthesis of prostaglandin E2 was strongly dependent on the concentration of extracellular calcium in the osteoblast-like cell line, MC3T3-E1. Moreover, this effect was not related to Ca2+ influx, since it was even potentiated by Ni2+ and Co2+, which was not due to intracellular activity of Ni2+, as judged by studies with 63Ni2+. Ba2+, Mg2+ and Sr2+ had no effect. Cd2+ caused dose-dependent synthesis of prostaglandin E2, which was shown to correlate with its cytotoxic properties. The results thus strongly suggest the presence of a divalent cation sensor in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells.
