BACKGROUND:Bone formation and development are reported to be regulated by bone morphogenetic protein2(BMP2)-induced Osterix expression. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the regulatory effect of BMP2/Osterix signaling pathway on differentiation of preosteoblasts in mice. METHODS:mRNA and protein expression of Osterix wasdetermined by real-time RT-PCR and western blot assay, respectively at various time points after mouse preosteoblasts were treated with BMP2. pcDNA3.1/myc-Osterix eukaryotic expression vector was constructed and transducted into preosteoblasts, and then mRNA expression of alkaline phosphatase, bone sialoprotein, and matrix extracelular phosphoglycoprotein wasdetected by real-time RT-PCR after transduction and BMP2 treatment. RESULTSANDCONCLUSION:Osterix mRNA expression was up-regulated when treated with BMP2 in mouse preosteoblasts, and reached the peak at 24 hours. In addition, the protein expression of Osterix was increased after BMP2 treatment. Alkaline phosphatase, bone sialoprotein, and matrix extracelular phosphoglycoprotein mRNA expression wasup-regulated after transfection of mouse preosteoblasts with pcDNA3.1/myc-Osterix eukaryotic expression vector and BMP2 treatment. Our results indicate that BMP2 regulates the synthesis of genetic markers of osteogenesis,such asalkaline phosphatase,matrix extracelular phosphoglycoproteinviaup-regulating Osterix expression in mouse preosteoblasts, suggesting BMP2/Osterix signaling pathway plays a critical role in bone development.

Objective To study the effect of UHRF1 expression inhibition by RNA interference on the radiosensitivity of esophageal cancer cell line TE-1 and its mechanism.Methods Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting UHRF1 gene was introduced into TE-1 cells by lentivector-mediated transfer.The cells were divided into three groups:non-transfected group,negative control (NC)-shRNA-transfected group,and UHRF1-shRNA-transfected group.The mRNA and protein expression levels of UHRF1 in TE-1 cells were measured by RT-PCR and Western blot before and after transfection.After transfection and X-ray radiation,the radiosensitivity of TE-1 cells was evaluated by colony formation assay; the cell cycle and cell apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry; the γ-H2AX (as a marker of DNA damage) level was measured by Western blot.Results After transfection with UHRF1-shRNA,the mRNA and protein expression levels of UHRF1 were significantly decreased in TE-1 cells,as compared with those in the NC-shRNA-transfected group and non-transfected group (0.11 vs 0.96 and 0.98,F =124.21,P =0.000;0.10 vs 0.89 and 0.94,F =125.25,P =0.000).The UHRF1-shRNA-transfected group had sensitization enhancement ratios of 1.53 (D0 ratio) and 1.95 (Dq ratio).X-ray radiation could cause G2/M arrest and increase apoptotic rate and γ-H2AX expression in TE-1 cells.Compared with the two control groups,the UHRF1-shRNA-transfected group showed significantly less G2/M arrest (F =500.15,P =0.000),a significantly higher apoptotic rate (F =100.10,P =0.000),and significantly higher residual γ-H2AX expression (F =61.00,P =0.000) at 24 hours after X-ray radiation.Conclusions RNA interference can effectively inhibit the UHRF1 expression and enhance the radiosensitivity of TE-1 cells.The mechanism may be related to cell cycle regulation,cell apoptosis,and DNA damage repair.
