Transforming growth factor ?1-induced cellular heterogeneity in the periosteum of rat parietal bones

Abstract: We examined the osteogenesis process in transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1)-treated neonatal and adult rats, aiming to investigate the age difference in the effect of TGF-beta 1 on mesenchymal cell differentiation. Recombinant human (rh) TGF-beta 1 (20 and 200 ng) was injected onto the outer periostea of the right side of the parietal bone of each rat once a day for 1-12 days starting at the age of either 1 day or 12 weeks. On the day after the final injection, the calvaria was excised and evaluated… Show more

“…27 However, its effects in vivo were demonstrated to be age-dependent, enhancing osteoblast differentiation only in neonatal but not in adult rats. 28 In our study, PTH induced increases in TGF-b isoforms only in growing rats, while no effects were found in 13-month-old animals. It was recently shown that PTH, besides stimulating several intracellular signaling pathways, also stimulates expression of latent TGF binding protein in rat osteoblastic osteosarcoma cells.…”

“…Others have shown that in the developing limb, transforming growth factor-p (TGF-P) is first expressed in prechondrogenic condensed mesenchyme and later in the incipient periosteum (30,38). This correlates well with the fact that injections of TGF-P into periosteum stimulate formation of new skeletal tissue (11,22,47). It is therefore conceivable that gene products such as paired and TGF-P may have roles in establishing the complex patterns of syndecan-3 and tenascin-C gene expression described here.…”

“…21 The procedure consisted in solubilizing 0.5 g of recombinant human (rh) TGF-␤ 1 with 5 g of carrier bovine serum albumin (Wako Pharmacal Co., Osaka, Japan) in 12.5 L of 0.5 mM HCl and 12.5 L of phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.4). 3,22 The OCP granules (5 mg) were immersed in the rhTGF-␤ 1 solution, placed in −20°C for 20 min, then vacuum-dried for 1 h. The OCP granules (5 mg) for control were processed in the same way, except that the granules were immersed in 12.5 L of 0.5 mM HCl and 12.5 L of phosphate buffered saline without rhTGF-␤ 1 (Control/ OCP). The combination was performed 12 h before grafting.…”
