Abstract
BACKGROUND Although some glycolytic intermediates have been shown to modulate several cell type formation and activation, the functional role of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) on osteoclastogenesis is still unknown. METHODS Osteoclastogenesis was evaluated on bone marrow preosteoclasts cultured with M-CSF - 30 ng/ml, RANKL - 10 ng/ml, and two concentrations of FBP (100 and 300 µM). TRAP-positive stained cells were counted, and osteoclastogenic marker genes expression were evaluated by qPCR. Osteoclasts resorption capacity was evaluated by the expression of specific enzymes and capacity to resorb a mineralized matrix. The NF-κB activation was detected using RAW 264.7, stably expressing luciferase on the NF-κB responsive promoter. RESULTS We show that FBP, the product of the first stage of glycolysis, inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclasts differentiation and TRAP activity. The treatment of preosteoclasts with FBP attenuated osteoclast fusion and formation, without affecting cell viability. Moreover, the inhibition of several osteoclastogenic marker genes expression (TRAP, OSCAR, DC-STAMP, Integrin αv, NFATc1) by FBP correlates with a reduction of mineralized matrix resorption capacity. The mechanism underlying FBP-inhibition of osteoclastogenesis involves NF-κB/NFATc1 signaling pathway inhibition. CONCLUSION Altogether these data show a protective role of a natural glycolytic intermediate in bone homeostasis that may have therapeutic benefit for osteolytic diseases.

Abstract
Chemerin is an adipokine that regulates adipogenesis and metabolic functions of mature adipocytes mainly through the activation of chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1). Elevated levels of chemerin have been found in individuals with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and osteoporosis. This adipokine was identified as an inflammatory and metabolic syndrome marker. Considering that the association between metabolic syndrome and bone health remains unclear, the present study aimed to clarify the role of chemerin in the pathophysiology of bone loss induced by dyslipidemia, particularly modulating osteoclastogenesis. In vitro analyses showed a downregulation of CMKLR1 at the early stage of differentiation and a gradual increase at late stages. Strikingly, chemerin did not modify osteoclast differentiation markers or osteoclast formation; however, it increased the actin-ring formation and bone resorption activity in mature osteoclasts. The increased bone resorption activity induced by chemerin was effectively inhibited by CMKLR1 antagonist (CCX832). Chemerin boosting mature osteoclast activity involves ERK5 phosphorylation. Moreover, two models of dyslipidemia (high-fat diet [HFD]-treated C57/BL6 and db/db mice) exhibited significantly increased level of chemerin in the serum and gingival tissue. Morphometric analysis showed that HFD-treated and db/db mice exhibited increased alveolar bone loss compared to respective control mice, which was associated with an up-regulation of chemerin, CMKLR1 and cathepsin K mRNA expression in the gingival tissue. The treatment of db/db mice with CCX832 effectively inhibited bone loss. Antagonism of chemerin receptor also inhibited the expression of cathepsin K in the gingival tissue. Our results show that chemerin not only increases osteoclasts activity in vitro, but also that increased level of chemerin in dyslipidemic mice plays a critical role in bone homeostasis. © 2016 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Glucose-stimulated increases in osteoclast activity are mediated, at least in part, by transcriptional regulation of H+-ATPase expression through a mechanism involving p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. We hypothesized that early events in the glucose-dependent signaling pathway would be similar to those identified in other glucose-sensitive cells, such as islet beta-cells, including rapid changes in the cellular ATP/ADP ratio and mobilization of intracellular Ca2+. We demonstrate that glucose stimulates a prolonged 50% increase in the ATP/ADP ratio that was maximal 30 s after glucose concentrations were increased. Glucose stimulated a transient 30% increase in calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMK II) activity that was maximal 3 min after the glucose concentration was increased. CaMK II was activated maximally by 3 mmol D-glucose/L in 3-min assays. Activation of CaMK II in the presence of the nonmetabolizable glucose analog 2-deoxyglucose was 2-fold greater than with D-glucose but was unchanged by glucosamine. Pretreatment of osteoclasts with the intracellular Ca2+ chelator BAPTA-AM inhibited glucose transport by 75%. BAPTA-AM treatment also prevented glucose-dependent stimulation of CaMK II. The data indicate that osteoclasts utilize a glucose-sensing mechanism similar to that of beta-cells and that glucose-stimulated signaling in osteoclasts involves changes in the ATP/ADP ratio and mobilization of intracellular Ca2+, resulting in activation of CaMK II.

Abstract
Osteochondrosis (OC) is the most important developmental orthopaedic disease in the horse. Despite some decades of research, much of the pathogenesis of the disorder remains obscure. Increasing knowledge of articular cartilage development in juvenile animals led to the presumption that the role of collagen in OC might be more important than previously thought. To study collagen characteristics of both cartilage and subchondral bone in young (5 and 11 months of age) horses, samples were taken of subchondral bone and articular cartilage from a group of 43 Dutch Warmblood foals and yearlings that suffered from varying degrees of OC. Based on a histological classification, lesions were graded as early, middle and end stage. Collagen content and some posttranslational modifications (lysyl hydroxylation, hydroxylysylpyridinoline (HP) and lysylpyridinoline (LP) cross-links) were determined, as was proteoglycan content. Data were compensated for site effects and analysed for differences due to the stage of the lesion. In early lesions total collagen was significantly decreased in both cartilage and subchondral bone of 5- and 11-month-old foals. Also in cartilage, HP cross-linking was reduced in the early lesions of 5- and 11-month-old foals, while LP cross-linking was decreased in subchondral bone of the end-stage lesions of both 5- and 11-month-old foals. Hydroxylysine content was unaffected. Collagen content remained reduced in cartilage from middle- and end-stage lesions, but returned to normal in subchondral bone. In cartilage there was a decrease in proteoglycan content in the end-stage lesions of both age groups. Thus, alterations of the collagen component, but not of the proteoglycan component, of the extracellular matrix might play a role in early OC. More severe lesions show a more general picture of an unspecific repair reaction. Biomarkers of collagen metabolism can be expected to be good candidates for early detection of OC.

Abstract
Osteoclasts are macrophage-derived polykaryons that degrade bone in an acidic extracellular space. This differentiation includes expression of proteinases and acid transport proteins, cell fusion, and bone attachment, but the sequence of events is unclear. We studied two proteins expressed at high levels only in the osteoclast, cathepsin K, a thiol proteinase, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), and compared this expression with acid transport and bone degradation. Osteoclastic differentiation was studied using human apheresis macrophages cocultured with MG63 osteosarcoma cells, which produce cytokines including RANKL and CSF-1 that mediate efficient osteoclast formation. Immunoreactive cathepsin K appeared at 3-5 days. Cathepsin K activity was seen on bone substrate but not within cells, and cathepsin K increased severalfold during further differentiation and multinucleation from 7 to 14 days. TRAP also appeared at 3-5 d, independently of cell fusion or bone attachment, and TRAP activity reached much higher levels in osteoclasts attached to bone fragments. Two proteinases that occur in the precursor macrophages, cathepsin B, a thiol proteinase related to cathepsin K, and an unrelated lysosomal aspartate proteinase, cathepsin D, were also studied to determine the specificity of the differentiation events. Cathepsin B occurred at all times, but increased two- to threefold in parallel with cathepsin K. Cathepsin D activity did not change with differentiation, and secreted activity was not significant. In situ acid transport measurements showed increased acid accumulation after 7 days either in cells on osteosarcoma matrix or attached to bone, but bone pit activity and maximal acid uptake required 10-14 days. We conclude that TRAP and thiol proteinase expression begin at essentially the same time, and precede cell fusion and bone attachment. However, major increases in acid secretion and proteinases expression continue during cell fusion and bone attachment from 7 to 14 days.

Abstract
The role of pp60c-src activity in the synthesis and secretion of the collagenolytic cysteine proteases (CCPs), cathepsin K (CAK), cathepsin L (CAL), and cathepsin B (CAB), by osteoclasts was investigated. Synthesis and secretion of CAL were up-regulated by 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3, but neither those of CAK, dominant relative to CAL, nor CAB, barely detectable, levels changed in the experiments. Though PP1, a pp60c-src inhibitor, had no effect on CCPs synthesis, suppressed the CAK and CAL secretion. Wortmannin, a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) inhibitor that works as a second messenger for pp60c-src, and cytochalasin B, an inhibitor of actin polymerization, suppressed the secretion of both CAK and CAL without suppressing synthesis. Hydroxyproline release, an indicator of degradation of type-I collagen, and F-actin ring formation, a structure linked to osteoclastic bone resorption, were suppressed by PP1, cytochalasin B or wortmannin. These results suggested inhibition of pp60c-src activity affected the osteoclastic cytoskeleton, which in turn reflected the suppression of bone resorption.

Abstract
The role of cathepsin K (CAK), cloned as a novel collagenolytic cysteine protease (CCP), cathepsin L (CAL) and cathepsin B (CAB) in bone resorption was investigated. In mouse calvarial organ culture medium, CAL, detected in trace amounts in control conditions, and CCP activity were increased by stimulants of bone resorption: 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 parathyroid hormone (PTH), IL-1alpha, IL-6 or TNF-alpha. CAK was the most abundantly detected CCP and was not increased by these stimulants. In the absence of the stimulants, only antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (AS-ODN) for CAK suppressed collagenolysis and CCP activity. On the other hand, in the presence of the stimulants, AS-ODN for both CAK and CAL suppressed collagenolysis and CCP activity, and these activities were additive. AS-ODN for CAB did not suppress collagenolysis. These results suggested CAK was constitutively synthesized as the main CCP, and CAL was synthesized as an inducible CCP in osteoclasts to degrade type-I collagen in combination with CAK.

Abstract
Cysteine proteinases, cathepsins B, H, K, L and S, have been implicated in several proteolytic processes during development, growth, remodeling and aging, as well as in a variety of pathological processes. For systematic analysis of cathepsin gene expression we have produced cDNA clones for mouse and human cysteine cathepsins. Northern analysis of a panel of total RNAs isolated from 16-19 different human and mouse tissues revealed the presence of mRNAs for cathepsin B, H, K, L and S in most tissues, but each with a distinct profile. Of the different cathepsin mRNAs, those for cathepsin K were clearly the highest in bone and cartilage. However, relatively high mRNA levels for the other cathepsins were also present in these tissues. To better understand the roles of different cathepsins during endochondral ossification in mouse long bones, cathepsin mRNAs were localized by in situ hybridization. Cathepsin K mRNAs were predominantly seen in multinucleated chondroclastic and osteoclastic cells at the osteochondral junction and on the surface of bone spicules. The other cathepsin mRNAs were also seen in osteoclasts, and in hypertrophic and proliferating chondrocytes. These observations were confirmed by immunohistochemistry and suggest that all cysteine cathepsins are involved in matrix degradation during endochondral ossification.

Abstract
Expression and function of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase, a key enzyme in bone resorption, were monitored in antisense DNA-treated bone organ cultures ex vivo. A novel fluoroimmunoassay was used to quantitate mRNA levels after treatment with various antisense, sense, or random DNA oligonucleotides. Conventional slot blots and in vitro translation experiments were used to monitor the efficiency of the antisense molecules. In cell cultures, the used antisense molecules were transported into osteoclasts and a population of mononuclear cells. A significant decrease in bone resorption and in the expression of the 16 kDa, 31 kDa, 42 kDa, 60 kDa, 70 kDa, and 116 kDa subunits of V-ATPase was seen after antisense treatment. Also, osteoclast differentiation was decreased in antisense-treated mouse metacarpal cultures. These data show that the proper function of V-ATPase in osteoclasts requires expression of the 16 kDa, 31 kDa, 42 kDa, 60 kDa, 70 kDa, and 116 kDa subunits of V-ATPase. Antisense DNA molecules can be used to inhibit osteoclast differentiation and function in tissue cultures, in which the physical and chemical cellular environment resembles that in vivo. However, more studies are needed to learn if antisense DNA molecules can be used for inhibiting bone resorption also in vivo.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulates bone resorption by acting directly on osteoblasts/stromal cells and then indirectly to increase differentiation and function of osteoclasts. PTH acting on osteoblasts/stromal cells increases collagenase gene transcription and synthesis. To assess the role of collagenase in the bone resorptive actions of PTH, we used mice homozygous (r/r) for a targeted mutation (r) in Col1a1 that are resistant to collagenase cleavage of type I collagen. Human PTH(1-34) was injected subcutaneously over the hemicalvariae in wild-type (+/+) or r/r mice four times daily for three days. Osteoclast numbers, the size of the bone marrow spaces and periosteal proliferation were increased in calvariae from PTH-treated +/+ mice, whereas in r/r mice, PTH-induced bone resorption responses were minimal. The r/r mice were not resistant to other skeletal effects of PTH because abundant interstitial collagenase mRNA was detected in the calvarial periosteum of PTH-treated, but not vehicle-treated, r/r and +/+ mice. Calcemic responses, 0.5-10 hours after intraperitoneal injection of PTH, were blunted in r/r mice versus +/+ mice. Thus, collagenase cleavage of type I collagen is necessary for PTH induction of osteoclastic bone resorption.

Abstract
Cathepsin K (EC 3.4.22.38) is a recently described enzyme that has been shown to cleave type I collagen in its triple helix. The aim of this study was to determine if it also cleaves type II collagen in the triple helix and to identify the helical cleavage site(s) in types I and II collagens. Soluble human and bovine type II collagen, and rat type I collagen, were incubated with cathepsin K before the reaction was stopped with trans-epoxysuccinyl-l-leucylamido-(4-guanidino)butane (E-64). Analysis by SDS/PAGE of the collagen digests showed that optimal activity of cathepsin K against native type II collagen was between pH 5.0 and 5.5 and against denatured collagen between pH 4.0 and 7.0. The enzyme cleaved telopeptides as well as the alpha1(II) chains, generating multiple fragments in the range 90-120 kDa. The collagenolytic activity was not due to a contaminating metalloenzyme or serine proteinase as it was not inhibited by 1,10-phenanthroline, EDTA or 3,4-dichloroisocoumarin. Western blotting with anti-peptide antibodies to different regions of the alpha1(II) chain suggested that cathepsin K cleaved native alpha1(II) chains in the N-terminal region of the helical domain rather than at the well-defined collagenase cleavage site. This was confirmed by N-terminal sequencing of one of the fragments, revealing cleavage at a Gly-Lys bond, 58 residues from the N-terminus of the helical domain. By using a similar approach, cathepsin K was found to cleave native type I collagen close to the N-terminus of its triple helix. These results indicate that cathepsin K could have a role in the turnover of type II collagen, as well as type I collagen.

Abstract
Osteoclastic bone degradation requires intimacy between the matrix and the resorptive cell. While the precise role the integrin alpha(v)beta3 plays in the process is not yet understood, occupancy of the heterodimer by soluble ligand or by blocking antibody effectively inhibits bone resorption in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that alpha(v)beta3 blockade may prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis. Thus, we identified a synthetic chemical peptide mimetic, beta-[2-[[5-[(aminoiminomethyl)amino]-1-oxopentyl]amino]-1-+ ++oxoethyl]amino-3-pyridinepropanoic acid, bistrifluoroacetate (SC56631) based upon the alpha(v)beta3 ligand, Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD), which recognizes the isolated integrin, and its relative, alpha(v)beta5, as effectively as does the natural peptide. The mimetic dampens osteoclastic bone resorption in vitro and in vivo. Most importantly, intravenous administration of the mimetic prevents the 55% loss of trabecular bone sustained by rats within 6 wk of oophorectomy. Histological examination of bones taken from SC56631-treated, oophorectomized animals also demonstrates the compound's bone sparing properties and its capacity to decrease osteoclast number. Thus, an RGD mimetic prevents the rapid bone loss that accompanies estrogen withdrawal.

Abstract
An intracellular pathway for proteins liberated from mineralized matrix during resorption was identified in osteoclasts. Analysis by confocal microscopy of sites of active bone resorption showed that released matrix proteins, including degraded type I collagen, were endocytosed along the ruffled border within the resorption compartment and transcytosed through the osteoclast to the basolateral membrane. Intracellular trafficking of degraded collagen, as typified by the resorbing osteoclast, may provide the cell with a regulatory mechanism for the control of tissue degradation.

Abstract
In order to examine our hypothesis that maturation ameloblasts could degrade the enamel matrix in a manner analogous to bone resorption mediated by osteoclasts, we have assessed the distribution of lysosomal enzymes in the enamel organ by immunolocalizing the cation-in-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR) and the lysosomal enzyme cathepsin B at all stages of amelogenesis. Secretory ameloblasts showed strong immunoreactivity for MPR in the supranuclear Golgi region and in the cytoplasm between the Golgi region and the distal junctional complexes. However, cathepsin B immunoreactivity was mainly seen in the distal portion of Tomes' process, which was unreactive for MPR immunogenicity. In maturation ameloblasts, the MPR was observed on the ruffled border of the ruffle-ended ameloblast (RA) but not on the distal cell membrane of the smooth-ended ameloblast (SA), although both cell types demonstrated strong immunoreactivity for MPR in the Golgi region. Immunoreactive cathepsin B was seen at the distal ends of both RA and SA. It is postulated that the nascent lysosomal enzymes bind to the mannose 6-phosphate receptors which target them not only to intracellular lysosomes, but also to the ruffled border of maturation ameloblasts where these enzymes are secreted into the enamel. Since MPR and lysosomal enzymes were also detected on the ruffled border of osteoclasts (Ocl) adjacent to alveolar bone, our immunocytochemical approach provides strong evidence for a similarity between the maturation process in enamel, as mediated by the ruffle-ended maturation ameloblasts, and bone resorption mediated by osteoclasts. This study has established that a common mechanism, based on MPR-targeted lysosomal secretion and matrix degradation, is basic to the maturation process involved in calcified tissues as different as bone and enamel.

Abstract
Cathepsin B activity and its regulation by interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) was investigated in normal human osteoblast-like cells (hOB) and in the human osteoblastic osteosarcoma cell line MG-63. Cathepsin B activity was measured using a fluorescent synthetic substrate, 7-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-arginyl-L-arginylamide-4-methylcoumarin, and its specificity was checked with E-64, a specific inhibitor of cysteine proteinases and CA074, a specific inhibitor of the enzyme. Cathepsin B activity was detected in crude extracts of cell monolayers and in conditioned media. In both cell types, basal activity was detected essentially in cell extracts, since in media only approximately 1.2% (hOB) and approximately 6% (MG-63) of the total activity was released. IL-1 beta (1-100 U/ml) and PTH (10(-9) M-10(-6) M) significantly stimulated cathepsin B activity in cell extracts and in conditioned media. In both cell types, the increase in proteolytic activity appeared to require RNA and protein synthesis after adding IL-1 beta or PTH. Using the above substrate, we also evaluated some biochemical properties of the enzyme, and its pH-stability and pH-optimum. In both cell types, intracellular cathepsin B activity was not resistant to neutral or slightly alkaline pH, whereas extracellular cathepsin B activity was stable. This study provides evidence that osteoblast-like cells produce and secrete active cathepsin B. The production and secretion was stimulated by IL-1 beta and PTH. The physiological role of cathepsin B produced by osteoblasts and stimulated by the bone resorbing agents remains to be elucidated. Since extracellular activity is stable under relatively physiological conditions, it is possible that the extracellular as well as intracellular form of the enzyme may play a role in matrix turnover.

Abstract
This review focuses on osteoclast ontogeny and function, emphasizing three aspects. We describe how a combination of laboratory models available to study the cell plus examination of the osteopetroses, a family of sclerotic diseases of the skeleton, have yielded major insights into osteoclast ontogeny and function. We proceed to describe the cell and molecular machinery enabling osteoclasts to resorb bone. The final, and most speculative, aspect of the review addresses possible mechanisms by which the osteoclast assumes its characteristic morphology, that of a polarized cell on bone. Since little direct information has been forthcoming as to how the osteoclast polarizes, we draw on other polarized cells. In particular, we examine the role of microtubules and members of the small GTPase family, the latter mediating polarized targeting of intracellular vesicles. In the case of the osteoclast, such vesicles probably represent the origin of the highly convoluted ruffled membrane, the cell's characteristic bone resorptive organ.

Abstract
Overlapping cDNA fragments encoding avian cathepsin B were cloned from an osteoclast cDNA library and sequenced. The primary structure of the prepro enzyme deduced from this sequence has 340 amino acids. The mature portion of the enzyme is 80% identical with murine cathepsin B; regions found in other papain superfamily enzymes are conserved. In osteoclasts and cultured macrophages, which produce large quantities of cathepsin B, mRNAs of 1.8 and 2.4 kb are produced in approximately equal quantities, while cells producing smaller quantities of the enzyme produce predominantly the 2.4 kb form. This variation in mRNAs suggests transcriptional differences related to production of large quantities of the enzyme.

Abstract
A gene encoding a possible novel human cathepsin, a cysteine proteinase that is distinct from previously characterized enzymes, has been identified by differential screening of a human osteoclastoma cDNA library. This molecule, termed cathepsin X, appears to represent the human homolog of the osteoclast-expressed rabbit cathepsin OC-2. Cathepsin X (GenBank accession number U20280) is 93.9% identical to OC-2 at the amino acid level, and is 92% identical at the nucleotide level within the coding region. Cathepsin X is 52.2 and 46.9% identical to cathepsins S and L, respectively, and is therefore clearly distinct from these enzymes. Cathepsin X mRNA was localized to multinucleated giant cells within the osteoclastoma tumor by in situ hybridization. These data strongly support the hypothesis that cathepsin X represents a novel cysteine proteinase which is expressed at high levels in osteoclasts.

Abstract
The effects of Zeolite A on bone resorbing activity of highly purified avian osteoclasts were analyzed. The present study demonstrates that when 100 micrograms/ml of acid-treated Zeolite A is added to the media the number of pits per osteoclast is reduced 3-fold at 24 h after treatment. Secreted cathepsin B enzyme activity was also reduced 3-fold. A similar reduction in pit number per osteoclast was measured following 48 h of treatment with Zeolite A but there appeared to be less reduction of cathepsin B enzyme activity. The effects on pit number and cathepsin B protein activity were Zeolite dose dependent. The structure of the compound seemed to be responsible for the effects measured since compounds used to represent constituents of Zeolite A (silicon dioxide and aluminum chloride) failed to inhibit bone resorption or reduce the level of secreted cathepsin B enzyme activity. Thus the molecular architecture of Zeolite A or a derivative thereof appears to be important. In conclusion, the data indicate that Zeolite A can inhibit bone resorption. Together with previous data on osteoblasts, this might suggest a potential positive activity of intact Zeolite A or a partial substructure of Zeolite A on bone turnover.

Abstract
We have studied the degradation of type X collagen by metalloproteinases, cathepsin B, and osteoclast-derived lysates. We had previously shown (Welgus, H. G., C. J. Fliszar, J. L. Seltzer, T. M. Schmid, and J. J. Jeffrey. 1990. J. Biol. Chem. 265:13521-13527) that interstitial collagenase rapidly attacks the native 59-kD type X molecule at two sites, rendering a final product of 32 kD. This 32-kD fragment, however, has a Tm of 43 degrees C due to a very high amino acid content, and thus remains helical at physiologic core temperature. We now report that the 32-kD product resists any further attack by several matrix metalloproteinases including interstitial collagenase, 92-kD gelatinase, and matrilysin. However, this collagenase-generated fragment can be readily degraded to completion by cathepsin B at 37 degrees C and pH 4.4. Interestingly, even under acidic conditions, cathepsin B cannot effectively attack the whole 59-kD type X molecule at 37 degrees C, but only the 32-kD collagenase-generated fragment. Most importantly, the 32-kD fragment was also degraded at acid pH by cell lysates isolated from murine osteoclasts. Degradation of the 32-kD type X collagen fragment by osteoclast lysates exhibited the following properties: (a) cleavage occurred only at acidic pH (4.4) and not at neutral pH; (b) the cysteine proteinase inhibitors E64 and leupeptin completely blocked degradation; and (c) specific antibody to cathepsin B was able to inhibit much of the lysate-derived activity. Based upon these data, we postulate that during in vivo endochondral bone formation type X collagen is first degraded at neutral pH by interstitial collagenase secreted by resorbing cartilage-derived cells. The resulting 32-kD fragment is stable at core temperature and further degradation requires osteoclast-derived cathepsin B supplied by invading bone.

Abstract
Osteoclast-mediated bone resorption is accomplished by secretion of lysosomal proteases into an acidic extracellular compartment. We have previously demonstrated that avian osteoclasts and human osteoclast-like giant cell tumor cells respond in vitro to treatment with 17 beta-estradiol (17 beta-E2) by decreased bone resorption activity. To better understand the mechanism by which this is accomplished, we have investigated the effects of 17 beta-E2 treatment on lysosomal enzyme production and secretion by isolated avian osteoclasts and multinucleated cells from human giant cell tumors in vitro. Isolated cells were cultured with bone particles in the presence of either vehicle or steroid. The conditioned media and cells were harvested, and the levels of cathepsin B, cathepsin L, beta-glucuronidase, lysozyme, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activities were determined. There was a steroid dose-dependent decrease in secreted levels of these enzymes. Cell-associated levels of cathepsin L, beta-glucuronidase, and lysozyme decreased; whereas cell-associated levels of cathepsin B and TRAP increased. These changes were measurable at 10(-10) M and maximal at 10(-8) M 17 beta-E2. The changes were detectable at 4-18 h of treatment and increased through 24 h of treatment. The response was steroid specific, since the inactive estrogen isomer, 17 alpha-E2, failed to alter the activity levels. Moreover, the effects of 17 beta-E2 were blocked when the cells were treated simultaneously with the estrogen antagonist ICI182-780 in conjunction with 17 beta-E2. Human osteoclast-like cells obtained from giant cell tumors of bone responded similarly to estrogen with respect to cathepsin B, cathepsin L, and TRAP activities.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
