Conditional Knockout of Calcium Receptors in Bone Cells

骨细胞钙受体的条件敲除

基本信息

项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Bone remodeling is a sequence of events in which osteoclastic resorption is coupled to osteoblast-driven formation. Resorption releases Ca2+, matrix proteins, growth factors, and signaling molecules into the microenvironment. Cells in bone and marrow respond to fluxes in the [Ca2+]e which initiate signaling cascades. In osteoblasts, changes in the [Ca2+]e affect expression of genes critical for matrix production and mineralization, chemotaxis, and proliferation. Considerable evidence supports the idea that changes in the [Ca2+]e couple to the activation of CaRs. CaRs are known to control PTH secretion, parathyroid cell growth, and renal Ca2+ and water handling. These aspects of CaR physiology were confirmed in the original (global) CaR knockout mouse developed by Ho et al in 1995. This knockout was generated by a targeting strategy that was later learned to allow for the production of alternatively spliced CaRs that are in fact expressed in bone, marrow, cartilage, skin and other cells. Thus, to understand the role of CaRs in bone cells and skeletal homeostasis in vivo, a different knockout model is needed -- one that selectively targets bone cell populations (conditional knockout) and that does not allow for the formation of any membrane-anchored, signaling-competent CaRs. Our laboratory recently developed a novel floxed CaR mouse that meets these specifications. We propose to use this model and osteoblast- specific Tg mice expressing Cre recombinase under the control of specific bone promoters (type 1 collagen, osteocalcin, osterix, dentin matrix protein 1) to develop conditional knockouts of the CaR targeted to bone cell populations at different stages of differentiation. We will test the hypothesis that CaRs mediate high [Ca2+]e-induced signaling and changes in differentiation, gene expression, and mineralization in osteoblasts, that CaRs act at specific points temporally in bone development, and that CaR activation mediates its effects at least partly via the Wnt/¿-catenin pathway. Our aims are (1) to determine the role of the CaR in the growth and differentiation of cells in the osteoblastic lineage by analyzing mice with conditional deletion of the CaR at temporally different points in osteoblastic development; and (2) to determine whether cellular and phenotypic features of knocking-out the CaR in osteoblasts are mediated via Wnt/¿-catenin signaling. Skeletal phenotypes in vivo will be characterized by in vivo micro-CT, histomorphometry, biochemical markers of turnover, and serum chemistry and hormonal parameters. Cells from these animals will be cultured to determine the key genes and signaling pathways affected. These studies should lay the groundwork for developing therapeutics targeted to CaRs in different bone cell populations as a means to treat disorders of low bone formation and excessive remodeling such as osteoporosis, hyperparathyroidism, and bone metastases.
描述(由适用提供):骨重塑是一系列事件,其中骨碎屑分辨率与成骨细胞驱动的形成耦合。度假村将Ca2+,基质蛋白,生长因子和信号分子释放到微环境中。骨骼和骨髓中的细胞对[Ca2+] E中的通量反应,从而启动信号级联反应。在成骨细胞中,[Ca2+] E的变化影响基因表达对基质生产和矿化,趋化性和增殖至关重要。大量证据支持这样的想法,即[Ca2+] e夫妇将其变化为汽车的激活。已知汽车可以控制PTH分泌,甲状旁腺细胞生长以及肾脏Ca2+和水的处理。 Ho等人于1995年开发的原始(全球)汽车敲除小鼠在1995年开发的原始(全球)汽车敲除小鼠中得到了证实。这种敲除是由靶向策略产生的,该策略后来学会了,允许在骨,骨髓,软骨,皮肤和其他细胞中生产实际上剪接的汽车。为了了解汽车在骨细胞和体内骨骼稳态中的作用,需要采取不同的敲除模型 - 一种选择性地靶向骨细胞种群(条件敲除),并且不允许形成任何具有膜的信号,具有信号且具有信号的且具有信号的能力的汽车。我们的实验室最近开发了一种符合这些规格的新型Floxed Car House。我们建议使用该模型和成骨细胞 - 特异性TG小鼠在特定骨启动子(1型胶原蛋白,骨钙素,Osterix,osterix,dentin基质蛋白1)的控制下表达CRE重组酶,以开发针对分化不同阶段的骨细胞群的CAR的条件敲除。我们将检验以下假设:汽车介导成骨细胞中的高[Ca2+] E诱导的信号传导以及分化,基因表达和矿化的变化,即汽车在骨骼发育中暂时起作用的特定点,并且CAR激活至少通过Wnt/¿ -Catenin Pathway介导了其作用。我们的目的是(1)通过通过在成骨细胞发育中暂时不同点的条件缺失来分析汽车在成骨细胞谱系中细胞生长和分化中的作用; (2)为了确定将CAR在成骨细胞中淘汰的细胞和表型特征是否是通过Wnt/� -Catenin信号传导介导的。体内骨骼表型的特征是体内微CT,组织形态计量学,营业额的生化标志物以及血清化学和马蹄形参数。这些动物的细胞将被培养以确定影响的关键基因和信号通路。这些研究应为开发针对不同骨细胞种群中汽车的治疗的基础,作为治疗低骨形成和过量重塑的疾病的一种手段,例如骨质疏松症,甲状旁腺功能亢进和骨转移酶。
