Ji, Kim, Lee, Choi, Lee, and Song: Expression of Osteoclastogenesis-related Genes in Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Macrophages

Abstract

Objective

To examine the mechanism for the inhibited differentiation of osteoclasts in rheumatoid arthritis synovial CD14+ osteoclast precursors, the different expressions of the osteoclastogenesis-related genes in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synovial fluid CD14+ osteoclast precursors were compared with those of normal peripheral blood (PB) CD14+ osteoclast precursors.

Conclusion

The expression of the osteoclastogenesis-re-lated genes in RA synovial CD14+ osteoclast precursors is different from that of the normal PB CD14+ osteoclast precursors. These results suggest that the different expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes might be involved in the altered osteoclastogenesis in RA synovial osteoclast precursors.

Methods

The expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes were examined using a gene expression oligonucleotide microarray. To validate the results of the microarray analysis, the mRNA expressions of osteoclastogenesis-related genes were measured by real-time PCR.

Results

Comparative analysis of the mRNA profiles showed significantly different expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes, such as MafB, Id3 and LILRB4, in the RA synovial CD14+ osteoclast precursors, compared to that of normal PB CD14+ osteoclast precursors.

Healthy volunteer PB and RA synovial CD14+ cells were cultured with M-CSF (20 ng/mL) for 2 days, and then with RANKL (40 ng/mL) and M-CSF (20 ng/mL) for an additional 6, 9 or 12 days. The cells were stained for TRAP expression. TRAP-positive multinucleated (>3 nuclei/cell) cells were counted as osteoclasts. ∗p<0.05 versus RA 6 days.
