<P>Distal-less homeobox 5 (Dlx5) is a negative regulator of adipogenesis. Dlx5 expression is decreased by adipogenic stimuli, but the mechanisms of Dlx5 downregulation by adipogenic stimuli have not yet been determined. Here, we tested the impact of cAMP/PKA (protein kinase A) signaling induced by 3-isobutyl-1 methyl xanthine (IBMX), forskolin, and 8-CPT-cAMP on the expression of Dlx5 in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Significant downregulation of Dlx5 mRNA expression and protein production levels were observed via cAMP/PKA-dependent signaling. Forced expression of cAMP-responsive element-binding protein (CREB) and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β (C/EBPβ) was sufficient for downregulation of Dlx5 expression and revealed that CREB functions upstream of C/EBPβ. In addition, C/EBPβ knockdown by siRNA rescued Dlx5 expression in IBMX-treated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Luciferase assays using a Dlx5-luc-2935 reporter construct demonstrated the requirement of the <I>Dlx5</I> promoter region, ranging from −774 to −95 bp that contains two putative C/EBPβ binding elements (site-1: −517 to −510 bp and site-2: −164 to −157 bp), in the suppression of Dlx5 transcription. Consequently, chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis confirmed the importance of site-1, but not site-2, in C/EBPβ binding and transcriptional suppression of Dlx5. In conclusion, we elucidated the underling mechanism of Dlx5 downregulation in IBMX-induced adipogenesis. IBMX activated cAMP/PKA/CREB signaling and subsequently upregulated C/EBPβ, which binds to the <I>Dlx5</I> promoter to suppress Dlx5 transcription.</P>

We investigated the effects of high calorie and low caloriediets on skeletal integrity, and whether β adrenergic blockade(BB) attenuates bone loss induced by dietary calorie alteration. Male 6-week old C57BL/6 mice were assigned to either anad-lib fed control diet (CON), a high calorie diet (HIGH), or alow calorie diet (LOW) group. In each diet group, mice weretreated with either vehicle (VEH) or propranolol, a β-adrenergicantagonist. Over 12-weeks, β-blockade mitigated bodyweight and fat mass increases induced by the high calorie diet. Femoral trabecular bone mineral density and the expressionlevels of osteogenic marker genes in bone marrow cells were reduced in HIGHVEH and LOWVEH mice, and BB significantly attenuated this decline only in HIGH mice. In summary, the magnitude of bone loss induced by low calorie diet was greater than that caused by high calorie diet in growing mice, and β-blockade mitigated high calorie diet-induced bone loss.

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) is a multifunctional cytokine that is elevated in inflammatory diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. Recent evidence has suggested that β2 adrenergic receptor (β2AR) activation in osteoblasts suppresses osteogenic activity. In the present study, we explored whether TNFα modulates βAR expression in osteoblastic cells and whether this regulation is associated with the inhibition of osteoblast differentiation by TNFα. In the experiments, we used C2C12 cells, MC3T3-E1 cells and primary cultured mouse bone marrow stromal cells. Among the three subtypes of βAR, β2 and β3AR were found in our analysis to be upregulated by TNFα. Moreover, isoproterenol-induced cAMP production was observed to be significantly enhanced in TNFα-primed C2C12 cells, indicating that TNFα enhances β2AR signaling in osteoblasts. TNFα was further found in C2C12 cells to suppress bone morphogenetic protein 2-induced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and the expression of osteogenic marker genes including Runx2, ALP and osteocalcin. Propranolol, a β2AR antagonist, attenuated this TNFα suppression of osteogenic differentiation. TNFα increased the expression of receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), an essential osteoclastogenic factor, in C2C12 cells which was again blocked by propranolol. In summary, our data show that TNFα increases β2AR expression in osteoblasts and that a blockade of β2AR attenuates the suppression of osteogenic differentiation and stimulation of RANKL expression by TNFα. These findings imply that a crosstalk between TNFα and β2AR signaling pathways might occur in osteoblasts to modulate their function.

During orthodontic tooth movement, local hypoxia and enhanced osteoclastogenesis are observed in the compression side of periodontal tissues. The receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) is an osteoblast/stromal cell-derived factor that is essential for osteoclastogenesis. In this study, we examined the effect of hypoxia on RANKL expression in human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLFs) to investigate the relationship between local hypoxia and enhanced osteoclastogenesis in the compression side of periodontal tissues. Hypoxia significantly enhanced the levels of RANKL mRNA and protein as well as hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) protein in PDLFs. Constitutively active HIF-1α alone significantly increased the levels of RANKL expression in PDLFs under normoxic conditions, whereas dominant negative HIF-1αblocked hypoxia-induced RANKL expression. To investigate further whether HIF-1α directly regulates RANKL transcription, a luciferase reporter assay was performed using the reporter vector containing the RANKL promoter sequence. Exposure to hypoxia or overexpression of constitutively active HIF-1α significantly increased RANKL promoter activity, whereas dominant negative HIF-1αblocked hypoxia-induced RANKL promoter activity. Furthermore,mutations of putative HIF-1α binding elements in RANKL promoter prevented hypoxia-induced RANKL promoter activity. The results of chromatin immunoprecipitation showed that hypoxia or constitutively active HIF-1α increased the DNA binding of HIF-1α to RANKL promoter. These results suggest that HIF-1α mediates hypoxia-induced up-regulation of RANKL expression and that in compression side periodontal ligament, hypoxia enhances osteoclastogenesis, at least in part, via an increased RANKL expression in PDLFs.
