The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of proteasome inhibitor, bortezomib (Bzb), on osteoblast in pathologic status of myeloma bone disease. The myeloma bone disease was modeled by co-culture of mouse myeloma cell RPMI8226 with osteoblast line MC-3T3E1 from mouse calvaria, and intervenient culture of supernatant. The inhibitory effect of Bzb on proliferation of MC-3T3E1 assayed by modified MTT method, the apoptosis of MC-3T3E1 cells was determined by flow cytometry with Annexin V/PI staining, the expressions of osteoblast markers, Runx2/cbfa1, osteocalcin (OCN) and osterix (OSX) in MC-3T3E1 treated with Bzb were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively. Experiments were divided into 3 group: single cultured, co-cultured and supernatant-interveniently cultured groups. The results showed the Bzb in higher concentration inhibited proliferation of MC-3T3E1 cells in a dose-dependent manner, with the IC(50) of 38.1 nmol/L for 48 hours, the Bzb in low concentration (5 nmol/L) did not show the inhibitory effect on proliferation of MC-3T3E1 in single cultured group (p0.10), but could decrease apoptotic rate of MC-3T3E1 by 32.5% and 24.6% respectively in cocultured and supernatant-interveniently cultured groups, moreover increased the expression of osteoblast-related gene OSX, OCN mRNA and protein (p0.05), while no obvious change of Runx2/cbfa1 expression was observed (p0.05). It is concluded that the proteasome inhibitor, Bzb, in low concentration promotes the activity of osteoblast internal mechanisms, and prevents the apoptosis of osteoblasts induced by myeloma cells. In addition, it can up-regulate transcription and expression of osteoblast markers related to Runx2/cbfa1 path way, thus may protect osteoblasts in myeloma bone disease. |
