초록/요약 도움말
Osteocalcin is one of the most abundant proteins synthesized and secreted in bone. Classically it’s been only understood to be a regulator of bone mineralization, but mounting evidence suggest a new endocrine role for osteocalcin that affects multiple aspects of glucose and energy metabolism during adulthood, male fertility and cognition. ESP, a tyrosine phosphatase expressed only in bone, negatively regulates the carboxylation of osteocalin. The inverse correlations between serum bioactive osteocalcin (ucOCN) and glucose metabolism in patients with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes has been reported. However, the role of ucOCN for regulation of inflammatory genes has not been studied. In the present study, we demonstrated 1) whether tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), a major inflammatory cytokine, regulates osteocalcin expression and activation and 2) whether ucOCN has regulatory role for expression of inflammatory genes in C2C12 cells. The results showed that TNFα increases ESP expressions, while decreases OCN expression and ucOCN level. Increased ESP and suppressed OCN/ucOCN level was attenuated by inhibiting ERK, MAPK, JNK, NF-κB, TNFα downstream signaling pathways. TNFα induced expressions of IL-6, IL-1β, iNOS, TNFα and COX-2 were significantly suppressed by ucOCN (0.5, 5, 50 ng/ml) treatment. These results support a model in which, in the context of inflammatory diseases that increase the production of TNFα, TNFα downregulates the expression and activation of OCN/ucOCN through its downstream signaling pathways. The role of ucOCN in suppression of inflammatory gene expression was also demonstrated.
