c-Src Links a RANK/αvβ3 Integrin Complex to the Osteoclast Cytoskeleton

Abstract: Osteoclasts are unique bone resorptive cells, necessary for maintaining skeletal homeostasis. A relative excess of their activity however, often eventuates in the common disorder osteoporosis. Thus, understanding the means by which osteoclasts resorb bone carries both physiological and clinical significance.The magnitude of skeletal resorption reflects osteoclast number and the matrix-degrading capacity of the individual cell. Osteoclast abundance is governed by macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and… Show more

“…As others have shown (Izawa et al, 2012), bone adherent and transduced mBMMs differentiated into mature OCLs after 8 days of RANKL treatment. Although cells seeded on bone slices had significantly diminished motility compared to cells tracked on plastic, the pattern of stimulation with RANKL and the significant dominant suppression by ActA was sustained.…”

“…SFK phosphorylation at Tyr-418 is known to occur during integrin ligation [28] and following force activation [17,29]; surprisingly, in mdMSCs mechanical strain did not induce phosphorylation at this site following strain durations of 2–30 minutes (10 cycles per minute) (Fig. 3C, showing 100 cycles of strain).…”

“…Such being the case, activated RANK should rescue the ASXL2−/− osteoclast phenotype. To confirm this notion, we expressed a protein consisting of the transmembrane and cytosolic domains of RANK fused to the external domain of human Fas receptor (hFas/RANK) (Izawa et al, 2012). When exposed to anti-hFas antibody, WT macrophages bearing this construct differentiate into osteoclasts (Fig 3H).…”
