| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has been reported that IL-18 suppresses osteoclastogenesis by increasing GM-CSF production in T-cells. We examined the effect of RANKL-stimulated osteoclast precursors (RAW264.7 cells) on GM-CSF expression in IL-18-stimulated CD4+T-cells. RAW264.7 cells were induced into osteoclasts in the presence of RANKL. The production of IL-18 binding protein (BP) was increased in the culture medium derived from RANKL-stimulated RAW264.7 cells compared to unstimulated cells. GM-CSF expression in CD4+T-cells stimulated with IL-18 was suppressed by the addition of conditioned medium from RANKL-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. These results suggested that IL-18BP derived from RANKL-stimulated RAW264.7 cells blocks the stimulatory effects of IL-18 on GM-CSF expression in CT4+T-cells.
