Abstract

Mouse calvaria-derived osteoblastlike cells have been shown to produce macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). This factor may be involved in osteoclastogenesis and thus in bone resorption. In the present study we investigated whether the production of M-CSF was altered in the osteopetrotic mouse mutant strain op/op, characterized by a decrease in osteoclast number and an impairment of bone resorption. Whole calvariae and cells, as well as skin and lung fibroblasts, of the op/op mouse were found to produce no measurable M-CSF, in contrast to tissue and cells derived from normal littermates. M-CSF was identified by colony assay in semisolid media and by inhibition of the biologic activity with antiserum against M-CSF. Furthermore, the number of resident macrophages, identified by F4/80 antigen (F4/80 Ag) immunohistochemistry, was drastically decreased in bone and bone marrow of the op/op mouse, but in skin these cells were normal in number and morphology. These findings suggest that both M-CSF and resident macrophages play a role in the mechanism of bone resorption. The op/op mouse appears to be a valuable model to further investigate such a hypothesis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
