| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
CD302/DCL-1 is one of the C-type lectin receptors, but the distribution and the function has been mostly not clarified. We found that CD302 was expressed on osteoclasts induced from murine bone marrow cells. The inhibition of CD302 expression caused fragmentation of actin ring in mature osteoclasts and reduced bone resorption in vitro. Also, CD302 was co-localized with CCN2 which is a positive regulator of osteoclast maturation. Moreover, SHP-2 was identified as a potent candidate as a signal transducer of CD302 signaling. These results showed that CD302 could be a new target protein to regulate osteoclast maturation.
