Research Abstract |
Optimal culture condition was assessed in inducing osteoclast from the human umbilical cord mononuclear cells (uMNC). The uMNC were cultured in three DMEM/F12 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 20% horse serum (HS) or 2% BSA(BSA), with or without following substances ; M-CSF, IL-4, osteoclast differentiation factor, and 1 α, 25-dihydroxyvitamine D3 (VD). Multinucleated cells positive for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase were efficiently induced in uMNC cultured with M-GSF added FBS or M-CSF added BSA in the presence of VD, or with M-CSF added HS in the presence of IL-4. Calcitonin-induced cAMP production was significantly increased in uMNC cultured with M-CSF added HS in the presence of VD or M-CSF added BSA in the presence of IL-4. Bone resorbing activity was increased in uMNC cultured with M-CSF added HS in the presence of VD. Estradiol (E2) did not stimulate cAMP production of in uMNC cultured with BSA containing M-CSF and IL-4. LPS-induced TNFα production was investigated in 3 uMNC with estrogen receptor gene polymorphism PP, Pp, and pp cultured with BSA containing M-CSF and IL-4 in the precence (+) or absence of E2 (-). The LPS-induced TNFα production ratio of E2 (+) uMNC- to - E2 (-) uMNC was 0.60±0.06 for uMNC with PP, 1.06±0.06 for uMNCwith Pp, and 1.44±0.12 for uMNC with pp. Thus, both the estrogen and its receptor gene polymorphism affected the LPS-induced TNFα production in UMNC.
