Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) increases fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR1) and fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) expression in osteoblasts and the anabolic response to PTH is reduced in Fgf2-/- mice. This study examined whether candidate factors implicated in the anabolic response to PTH were modulated in Fgf2-/- osteoblasts. PTH increased Runx-2 protein expression in Fgf2+/+ but not Fgf2-/- osteoblasts. By immunocytochemistry, PTH treatment induced nuclear accumulation of Runx-2 only in Fgf2+/+ osteoblasts. PTH and FGF-2 regulate Runx-2 via activation of the cAMP response element binding proteins (CREBs). Western blot time course studies showed that PTH increased phospho-CREB within 15 min that was sustained for 24 h in Fgf2+/+ but had no effect in Fgf2-/- osteoblasts. Silencing of FGF-2 in Fgf2+/+ osteoblasts blocked the stimulatory effect of PTH on Runx-2 and CREBs phosphorylation. Studies of the effects of PTH on proteins involved in osteoblast precursor proliferation and apoptosis showed that PTH increased cyclinD1-cdk4/6 protein in Fgf2+/+ but not Fgf2-/- osteoblasts. Interestingly, PTH increased the cell cycle inhibitor p21/waf1 in Fgf2-/- osteoblasts. PTH increased Bcl-2/Bax protein ratio in Fgf2+/+ but not Fgf2-/- osteoblasts. In addition PTH increased cell viability in Fgf2+/+ but not Fgf2-/- osteoblasts. These data suggest that endogenous FGF-2 is important in PTH effects on osteoblast proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Reduced expression of these factors may contribute to the reduced anabolic response to PTH in the Fgf2-/- mice. Our results strongly indicate that the anabolic PTH effect is dependent in part on FGF-2 expression.

Abstract
We have previously reported that prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)) and its selective agonist fluprostenol increase basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) mRNA and protein production in osteoblastic Py1a cells. The present report extends our previous studies by showing that Py1a cells express FGF receptor-2 (FGFR2) and that treatment with PGF(2alpha) or fluprostenol decreases FGFR2 mRNA. We have used confocal and electron microscopy to show that, under PGF(2alpha) stimulation, FGF-2 and FGFR2 proteins accumulate near the nuclear envelope and colocalize in the nucleus of Py1a cells. Pre-treatment with cycloheximide blocks nuclear labelling for FGF-2 in response to PGF(2alpha). Treatment with SU5402 does not block prostaglandin-mediated nuclear internalization of FGF-2 or FGFR2. Various effectors have been used to investigate the signal transduction pathway. In particular, pre-treatment with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) prevents the nuclear accumulation of FGF-2 and FGFR2 in response to PGF(2alpha). Similar results are obtained by pre-treatment with the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor H-7. In addition, cells treated with PGF(2alpha) exhibit increased nuclear labelling for the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), p44/ERK2. Pre-treatment with PMA blocks prostaglandin-induced ERK2 nuclear labelling, as confirmed by Western blot analysis. We conclude that PGF(2alpha) stimulates nuclear translocation of FGF-2 and FGFR2 by a PKC-dependent pathway; we also suggest an involvement of MAPK/ERK2 in this process.

Abstract
Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) are potent stimulators of osteoclast formation. However, the role of FGF-2 in the responses to IL-1 in bone has not been reported. We examined the effect of IL-1 on FGF-2 mRNA and protein expression in human osteosarcoma MG-63 osteoblasts, normal human osteoblasts (NHOB), and osteoblasts from osteoarthritic patients (F2 and F13). IL-1 increased FGF-2 mRNA expression in osteoblasts within 1.5 to 3 h. Multiple FGF-2 protein isoforms were expressed in human osteoblasts. Twenty-four hours of treatment of MG-63 and NHOB cells with IL-1 increased the high-molecular-weight(HMW, 22/24 kDa) and low-molecular-weight (LMW, 18 kDa) FGF-2 proteins intracellularly. In contrast, IL-1 preferentially increased the LMW protein signal intracellularly as well as on the cell surface of F2 and F13 osteoblasts. We conclude that IL-1 is a major stimulator of FGF-2 expression in human osteoblasts. Furthermore, selective increases in the exportable LMW protein in osteoblasts from osteoarthritic patients may be of clinical relevance.

Abstract
We examined the effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on basic fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and FGF receptor (FGFR) expression in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells and in neonatal mouse calvariae. Treatment of MC3T3-E1 cells with PTH(1-34) (10-8M) or forskolin (FSK; 10-5M) transiently increased a 7 kb FGF-2 transcript with a peak at 2 h. The PTH increase in FGF-2 mRNA was maintained in the presence of cycloheximide. PTH also increased FGFR-1 mRNA at 2 h and transiently increased FGFR-2 mRNA at 1 h. FGFR-3 and FGFR-4 mRNA transcripts were not detected in MC3T3-E1 cells. In cells transiently transfected with an 1800-bp FGF-2 promoter-luciferase reporter, PTH and FSK increased luciferase activity at 2 h and 4 h. Immunohistochemistry showed that PTH and FSK increased FGF-2 protein labeling in the nuclei of MC3T3-E1 cells. PTH also increased FGF-2 mRNA, and FGFR-1 and FGFR-2 mRNA levels within 30 minutes in neonatal mouse calvarial organ cultures. We conclude that PTH and cAMP stimulate FGF-2 mRNA abundance in part through a transcriptional mechanism. PTH also regulated FGFR gene expression. We hypothesize that some effects of PTH on bone remodeling may be mediated by regulation of FGF-2 and FGFR expression in osteoblastic cells.

Abstract
We examined the effect of PGs, particularly PGF2alpha, on basic fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein in the rat osteoblastic cell line Py1a and in fetal rat calvariae. Py1a cells expressed multiple FGF-2 mRNA transcripts. PGF2alpha dose-dependently increased the 6-kb transcript at 6 h. The selective PGF2alpha agonist, fluprostenol (Flup), was more potent than PGF2alpha. Phorbol myristate acetate (10(-6) M) also increased a 6-kb mRNA at 6 h. By immunofluorescence microscopy, Flup increased perinuclear staining for FGF-2 protein at 6 h and nuclear labeling at 24 h. Immunogold labeling of calvariae revealed that treatment with Flup for 3 h caused a transition of FGF expression from matrix to cells and an increase in cytoplasmic labeling for FGF-2 protein in periosteal cells and in osteoblasts. After treatment with Flup for 24 h, nuclear labeling was marked in periosteal cells and in osteoblasts, and a further increase in cytoplasmic labeling for FGF-2 was noted in osteocytes, periosteal cells, and osteoblasts. We conclude that PGs can increase FGF-2 mRNA and protein in bone cells. Because the effect of Flup was mimicked by phorbol myristate acetate, we hypothesize that PGs' regulation of FGF-2 is mediated by a PGF2alpha-selective receptor acting through protein kinase C. Hence, effects of PGs on bone remodeling may be mediated, in part, by endogenous FGF-2.

Abstract
Woven bone induced by direct injection of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) into rat bone marrow was examined. On the first day after injection, fibrous tissues formed in the treated region of the bone marrow. Tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAPase)-immunopositive osteoblastic cells and osteopontin immunopositive-extracellular matrices were observed in the fibrous tissues, indicating bone induction. On the fifth day, the bFGF-induced bone was found broadly in the bone marrow. In the originally existing bone, osteopontin-immunoreactivity was observed at cement lines, but not in the fully calcified matrix, whereas the woven bone displayed immunoreactivity throughout the matrix. Numerous TRAPase-positive osteoclasts were present on the surfaces of the woven bone, but no obvious cement line was observed. Therefore, both bone formation and resorption appeared highly active, without normal cellular coupling equilibrated between bone formation and resorption performed by osteoblasts and osteoclasts. On the tenth day, the bFGF-induced bone was almost replaced by bone marrow. Thus, bone formation actively occurred in the first half of the experimental period, whereas bone resorption came to be predominant thereafter. This study demonstrated that bFGF stimulates bone formation, which, however, is subject to subsequent resorption, probably due in part to the absence of coordinated cellular coupling between osteoclasts and osteoblasts.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) appear to play an important role in human cranial osteogenesis. We therefore investigated the effects of recombinant human FGF-2 (rhFGF-2) on human calvaria (HC) osteoblastic cells. Immunocytochemical analysis showed that confluent HC cells express both FGF receptors -1 and -2. In short-term culture, rhFGF-2 (0.1-100 ng/ml, 2-5 days) increased HC cell growth and decreased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and type I collagen (ColI) synthesis, as evaluated by P1CP levels. When HC cells were induced to differentiate in long-term culture in the presence of 50 microg/ml ascorbic acid and 3 mM phosphate, HC cells initially proliferated, then ALP activity and ColI synthesis decreased and calcium content in the extracellular matrix increased. Continuous treatment with rhFGF-2 (50 ng/ml) for 1-28 days, or a transient rhFGF-2 treatment for 1-7 days, slightly increased DNA synthesis at 7 days, whereas a late treatment for 8-28 days had no effect on cell growth. The continuous and transient treatments with rhFGF-2 decreased ALP activity, ColI synthesis, and matrix mineralization. This was associated with a transient fall in osteocalcin (OC) production at 7 days. In contrast, the late rhFGF-2 treatment for 8-28 days only slightly inhibited ALP activity and increased matrix mineralization. In addition, both continuous and late treatments with rhFGF-2 increased OC production in more mature cells at 3-4 weeks of culture. We also found that the early and late treatments with rhFGF-2 had opposite effects on transforming growth factor beta2 production in proliferating cells and more mature cells. The results show that rhFGF-2 slightly stimulates cell growth and reduces the expression of osteoblast markers in less mature cells, whereas it induces OC production and matrix mineralization in more mature cells, indicating that the effects of FGF-2 are differentiation stage specific and that FGF-2 may modulate HC osteogenesis by acting at distinct stages of cell maturation.

Abstract
The closely related cytokines bFGF and aFGF regulate the function of bone cells and mineralization. Osteoblasts express PPi-generating nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase (NTPPPH)/nucleotide phosphodiesterase I activity. bFGF and aFGF (10 ng/ml) up-regulated NTPPPH in human SaOS-2 and U2OS osteosarcoma cells, which express osteoblast-like features in culture. The induction was selective as alkaline phosphatase activity was down-regulated and specific as insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) were not active. Furthermore, IL-1 beta but not IGF-1 inhibited bFGF-induced up-regulation of NTPPPH. The induced NTPPPH remained predominantly associated with cells. bFGF can induce signaling through pathways including protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC)-mediated transduction. An activator of the PKA pathway (8-bromo cyclic adenosine monophosphate [cAMP]) induced NTPPPH. Furthermore, pretreatment with the PKC activator phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) (80 nM) markedly increased subsequent NTPPPH induction by both bFGF and cAMP. The PMA effect was associated with morphologic changes characterized by long, thin intercellular extensions. PKC desensitization also potentially contributed to this effect because the PKC inhibitors staurosporine and H-7 enhanced bFGF-induced and cAMP-induced NTPPPH expression in the absence of morphologic changes. We observed that bFGF induced expression of PC-1, a member of the NTPPPH gene family. The majority of NTPPPH activity was depleted by immunoadsorption using a monoclonal antibody to native human PC-1. bFGF- and aFGF-induced production of PC-1/NTPPPH in osteoblastoid cells may contribute to the effects of FGFs on bone metabolism.

Abstract
Both fibroblast growth factors-1 (acidic FGF) and -2 (basic FGF) increase the proliferation of osteoblasts and chondrocytes in vitro and FGF-2 stimulates angiogenesis and bone formation in vivo. To test their effects on rabbit tibial fracture-healing under stable and unstable mechanical conditions, 3 micrograms of either FGF-1 or FGF-2 was injected around rabbit tibial fractures on day 4 after fracture. Neither growth factor had a significant effect on either the size of, or the amounts of bone and cartilage in, the 10-day callus irrespective of the mechanical conditions under which the fracture was healing. The 10-day FGF-2-treated calluses were, however, more mature than FGF-1-treated calluses because the cartilage was separated from the periosteum by bone and endochondral ossification had progressed further. In conclusion, the application of FGF-1 or FGF-2 to normally healing fractures of the rabbit tibia does not have a significant effect on the rate of healing.

Abstract
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), insulin-like growth factor-I and -II (IGF-I and -II), acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulated [125I]-deoxyuridine incorporation about 13, 6.2-, 4.6-, 3.8-, 3.1- and 1.2-fold, respectively, above control values at a concentration of 50 ng/ml. Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) decreased incorporation about 30% at the same dose. aFGF, IGF-I, IGF-II, bFGF and TGF-beta increased [35S]-sulphate incorporation 231, 71, 64, 42 and 39%, respectively, in proliferating cells, while EGF, IGF-I, TGF-beta and PDGF decreased incorporation about 30%, and aFGF increased incorporation 80% in stationary-stage culture. TGF-beta, PDGF, aFGF and bFGF caused 65-40% inhibition of alkaline phosphatase activity in proliferating and stationary cultures. These findings suggest that the proliferation of pulp cells may be stimulated mainly by PDGF and IGF-I, and the production of extracellular matrix proteoglycan may be enhanced by aFGF, IGF-I and IGF-II. Furthermore, TGF-beta, PDGF, aFGF and bFGF may regulate the differentiation of pulp cells into odontoblasts.

Abstract
We tested acid and basic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF and bFGF), members of the heparin binding FGF family, for their ability to stimulate bone resorption as measured by the release of previously incorporated 45Ca from cultured fetal rat long bones in the presence and absence of heparin. Purified low-molecular-weight heparin (LMW heparin) at 5-125 micrograms/ml had no direct stimulatory effect. There was little effect from aFGF (10(-11)-10(-8) M) alone, but increased resorption was observed in the presence of LMW heparin. With bFGF, increased bone resorption was observed at 10(-9) M but not at 10(-8) M. The stimulatory effects of aFGF and bFGF in the presence of LMW heparin were not blocked by the addition of indomethacin (10(-6) M), which blocks prostaglandin production, or hydroxyurea (10(-3) M), which blocks DNA synthesis. However, pretreatment with aphidicolin (3 x 10(-5) M), a potent inhibitor of DNA synthesis, blocked the effect of acid FGF and diminished the effect of bFGF. These results indicate that both aFGF and bFGF can stimulate bone resorption by a prostaglandin-independent mechanism, particularly in the presence of heparin. The activation of FGF-mediated bone resorption by heparin could play a role in producing the osteoporosis that has been described with heparin therapy and mastocytosis.

Abstract
Biological calcification is a highly regulated process which occurs in diverse species of microorganisms, plants, and animals. Calcification provides tissues with structural rigidity to function in support and protection, supplies the organism with a reservoir for physiologically important ions, and also serves in a variety of specialized functions. In the vertebrate skeleton, hydroxyapatite crystals are laid down on a backbone of type I collagen, with the process being controlled by a wide range of noncollagenous proteins present in the local surroundings. In bone, cells of the osteoblast lineage are responsible for the synthesis of the bone matrix and many of these regulatory proteins. Osteoclasts, on the other hand, are continually resorbing bone to both produce changes in bone shape and maintain skeletal integrity, and to establish the ionic environment needed by the organism. The proliferation, differentiation, and activity of these cells is regulated by a number of growth factors and hormones. While much has already been discovered over the past few years about the involvement of various regulators in the process of mineralization, the identification and functional characterization of these factors remains an area of intense investigation. As with any complex, biological system that is in a finely tuned equilibrium under normal conditions, problems can occur. An imbalance in the processes of formation and resorption can lead to calcification disorders, and the resultant diseases of the skeletal system have a major impact on human health. A number of pharmacological agents have been, and are being, investigated for their therapeutic potential to correct these defects.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
