Menadione-induced cytotoxicity to rat osteoblasts

Abstract: Oxygen-derived free radical injury has been associated with several cytopathic conditions. Oxygen radicals produced by chondrocytes is an important mechanism by which chondrocytes induce matrix degradation. In the present study, we extend these observations by studying oxidative processes against osteoblasts. Osteoblasts were mixed in in vitro culture with 200 microM menadione. The cytotoxic effect of menadione-induced oxidative stress was monitored by lucigenin- or luminol-amplified chemiluminescence, tetrazo… Show more

“…Results from our study suggest that physical ESW promotes bone marrow stromal cell growth and differentiation toward osteoprogenitor as a result of early O 2 Ϫ -mediated TGF-␤1 induction. In contrast to previous studies showing that a large quantity of O 2 Ϫ or ONOO Ϫ from skeletal injury or cytotoxic agent was cytotoxic to osteoblasts (55,56), we have showed that ESWpromoted osteoprogenitor cell growth was mediated by O 2 Ϫ production. Superoxide can easily react with NO to generate ONOO Ϫ for the regulation of cell growth at less toxic levels (57).…”

“…Along with cell growth inhibition, previous work shows that VK 3 -induced cell death is by apoptosis (30,33), at least within certain doses; excessive doses induce necrosis rather than apoptosis (23,34). We have confirmed this result in the Jurkat subclone E6-1, derived from a human acute T cell leukemia.…”

“…Menadione (100 M) was added after the medium was autoclaved. (Note that the concentration of menadione used in oxidative stress studies is usually 50 to 500 M [35,38,40].) The media were then inoculated with 1 ml of stationary-phase cells grown in a medium not amended with menadione on an aerated gyratory water bath shaker (model 76; New Brunswick Scientific) at 26°C at 140 rpm.…”
