Cross-talk between Wnt and Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 (BMP-2) Signaling in Differentiation Pathway of C2C12 Myoblasts

Abstract: Loss of function of the Wnt co-receptor, lipoprotein receptorrelated protein 5, decreases bone formation, and a point mutation in this gene results in high bone mass, indicating the importance of this signaling pathway in bone formation. However, the exact mechanism is currently unknown. We examined a potential role for Wnt signaling and functional cross-talk of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) in osteoblast differentiation. To assess the contribution of Wnt, we generated C2C12 cells over-expressing Wnt3a … Show more

“…Indeed modulation of canonical Wnt signaling by BMP2 has been reported previously [36]. To confirm the co-expression of the red reporter and SP7, Wnt1TR positive and negative cells isolated by FACS were deposited onto glass microscope slides by cytocentrifugation, fixed and then subsequently immunostained for SP7.…”

“…The myoblast cell line C2C12 and the osteoblast cell line MC3T3-E1 were obtained and cultured as described previously [18]. For osteoblastic differentiation, MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured for 3 weeks in α-MEM containing both 5 mM β-glycerophosphate and 100 g/mL of ascorbic acid, with medium changes every 3 days.…”
