title: IL-1beta regulates cellular proliferation, prostaglandin E2 synthesis, plasminogen activator activity, osteocalcin production, and bone resorptive activity of the mouse calvarial bone cells.
abstract: Interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) regulates several activities of the osteoblast cells derived from mouse calvarial bone explants in vitro. IL-1beta stimulated cellular proliferation and the synthesis of prostaglandin E2 in the cultured cells in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, plasminogen activator activity of the mouse osteoblast was positively affected by IL-1beta in a dose-dependent manner over the dosage range of 0.01 ng-2 ng/mL with a maximal effect being observed at 2 ng/mL. However, the induction of osteocalcin synthesis and alkaline phosphatase activity in response to vitamin D, two characteristics of the osteoblast phenotype, were significantly antagonized by IL-1beta over a similar dose range. Treatment of mouse calvarial bone cells with IL-1beta resulted in a dose dependent stimulation of bone resorption and the bone resorption induced by IL-1beta was strongly inhibited by calcitonin treatment, indicating osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, suggesting that the bone resorption induced by IL-1beta appears to be osteoclast-mediated. This study supports the role of IL-1beta in the pathological modulation of bone cell metabolism, with regard to implication of the pathogenesis of osteoporosis by IL-1beta.
