Journal Article
Talking among Ourselves: Paracrine Control of Bone Formation within the Osteoblast Lineage
2014
Overview
While much research focuses on the range of signals detected by the osteoblast lineage that originate from endocrine influences, or from other cells within the body, there are also multiple interactions that occur within this family of cells. Osteoblasts exist as teams and form extensive communication networks both on, and within, the bone matrix. We provide four snapshots of communication pathways that exist within the osteoblast lineage between different stages of their differentiation, as follows: (1) PTHrP, a factor produced by early osteoblasts that stimulates the activity of more mature bone-forming cells and the most mature osteoblast embedded within the bone matrix, the osteocyte; (2) sclerostin, a secreted factor, released by osteocytes into their extensive communication network to restrict the activity of younger osteoblasts on the bone surface; (3) oncostatin M, a member of the IL-6/gp130 family of cytokines, expressed throughout osteoblast differentiation and acting to stimulate osteoblast activity that works on a different receptor in the mature osteocyte compared to the preosteoblast; and (4) Eph/ephrins, cell-contact-dependent kinases, and the osteoblast-lineage-specific interaction of EphB4 and ephrinB2, which provides a checkpoint for entry to the late stages of osteoblast differentiation and restricts RANKL expression.
