Outline of Final Research Achievements

Osteoclast differentiation marker (MMP-9, Cathepsin K, TRAP) gene expression, osteoclast formation and osteoclast activity in RAW 264.7 cells were significantly increased by RANKL and IL-35 compared with RANKL alone. The phosphorylations of ERK and p-38 were increased by RANKL and IL-35 compared with RANKL or IL-35 alone. The number of osteoclast by RANKL and IL-35 were significantly inhibited by pretreatment with ERK inhibitor compared with no treatment. Therefore, the effect by IL-35 and RANKL promoted synergistic effect on osteoclast formation mainly via ERK signaling pathway.
