Research Abstract |
Chondroitin sulfate E enhances osteoblast differentiation and inhibits osteoclast differentiation. As a mechanism of action, it was demonstrated that CS-E bound to adhesion molecules such as both osteoactivin (OA) and its receptor, integrin. And also CS-E inhibited the osteoclast differentiation by blocking the interaction of OA to integrin and heparan sulfate. On the other hands, osteoblast produced biglycan core protein and E-unit of CS. The amount of these molecules transiently increased before osteoblast differentiation (mineralization). These results indicated that not only the exogenously-added CS-E but also endogenous CS contributed the differentiation of the cells. Based on the results in the present study, we will further investigate the potentiality of CS-E as an application to bone regenerating biomaterials.
