Rapamycin inhibits osteoblast proliferation and differentiation in MC3T3‐E1 cells and primary mouse bone marrow stromal cells

Abstract: While the roles of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling in regulation of cell growth, proliferation, and survival have been well documented in various cell types, its actions in osteoblasts are poorly understood. In this study, we determined the effects of rapamycin, a specific inhibitor of mTOR, on osteoblast proliferation and differentiation using MC3T3-E1 preosteoblastic cells (MC-4) and primary mouse bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). Rapamycin significantly inhibited proliferation in both MC… Show more

“…As described in the Introduction section, mTORC1 inhibition by rapamycin was shown to reduce the proliferation of the MC3T3E1 murine osteoblastic cell line and murine bone marrow stromal cells 24. Our data showed that the RANKL‐binding peptides did not stimulate the proliferation of primary osteoblastic cells and that proliferation was inhibited by rapamycin (an mTORC1 inhibitor) to a similar extent in all of the groups (Fig.…”

“…S1). We also showed that the mechanism under which the both RANKL‐binding peptides stimulated bone formation could be explained by the activation of mTORC1 signaling, since rapamycin, an mTORC1 inhibitor, is known to inhibit Runx2 activation and ALP expression 24 (Figs 4 and 5). …”

“…4). At odds with these results, a low concentration (0.1 nM) of rapamycin has been shown to inhibit Ocn expression and osteoblast differentiation by suppressing the expression of Runx2, in primary mouse bone marrow stromal cells and MC3T3-E1 mouse osteoblastic cells (57). It is currently unknown whether these conflicting observations are a reflection of difference in cell lines, i.e.…”
