| Research Abstract |
1) Effects of IL-4 on bone resorption (in vivo) IL-4 inhibited bone resorbing induced by bone resorption factors in vivo. Morphometorical study revealed that IL-4 decreased in osteoclastic surface and the number of osteoclast. These results suggest that IL-4 inhibits stimulated bone resorption via inhibition of osteoclast formation.
2) Effect of IL-4 on proliferation and differentiation of osteoblast cells (MC3T3-E_1) In cultured MC3T3-E_1 cells, IL-4 stimulates DNA synthesis and IGF-1 production. PTH stimulates cAMP production MC3T3-E_1 cells was inhibited by IL-4 dose dependently. However. IL-4 inhibits PTH-stimulated Al-P activity in cells. These results indicate that IL-4 stimulates osteoblast proliferation, however, it inhibits osteoblast differentiation. IL-4 also inhibits PTH-induced bone formation and inhibits PTH-stimulated osteoblastic activity, such as release of osteoclast activating factors, results in the inhibition of osteoclast formation.
3) Androgen receptor (AR) in MC3T3-E_1cells AR was defected in MC3T3-E_1 cells by immunohistochemical staining, Northern blot analysis and Western blot analysis. The binding of testosterone was observed in both cytosol and nuclear fraction of the cells.
