Abstract

Runx2 and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)–Akt signaling play important roles in osteoblast and chondrocyte differentiation. We investigated the relationship between Runx2 and PI3K-Akt signaling. Forced expression of Runx2 enhanced osteoblastic differentiation of C3H10T1/2 and MC3T3-E1 cells and enhanced chondrogenic differentiation of ATDC5 cells, whereas these effects were blocked by treatment with IGF-I antibody or LY294002 or adenoviral introduction of dominant-negative (dn)–Akt. Forced expression of Runx2 or dn-Runx2 enhanced or inhibited cell migration, respectively, whereas the enhancement by Runx2 was abolished by treatment with LY294002 or adenoviral introduction of dn-Akt. Runx2 up-regulated PI3K subunits (p85 and p110β) and Akt, and their expression patterns were similar to that of Runx2 in growth plates. Treatment with LY294002 or introduction of dn-Akt severely diminished DNA binding of Runx2 and Runx2-dependent transcription, whereas forced expression of myrAkt enhanced them. These findings demonstrate that Runx2 and PI3K-Akt signaling are mutually dependent on each other in the regulation of osteoblast and chondrocyte differentiation and their migration.

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.
