Shear stress inhibits while disuse promotes osteocyte apoptosis

Abstract

Cell apoptosis operates as an organizing mechanism in biology in addition to removing effete cells. We have recently proposed that during bone remodeling, osteocyte apoptosis steers osteonal alignment in relation to mechanical loading of the whole bone [J. Biomech. 36 (2003) 1453]. Here we present evidence that osteocyte apoptosis in cell culture is modulated by shear stress. Under static culture conditions, serum starved osteocytes exposed phosphatidylserine (PS) on their cell membrane 6x more often than periosteal fibroblasts and 3x more often than osteoblasts. Treatment with shear stress reduced the number of osteocytes that exposed PS by 90%, but did not affect the other cell types. Fluid shear stress of increasing magnitude, dose-dependently stimulated Bcl-2 mRNA expression in human bone cells, while shear stress did not change Bax expression. These data suggest that disuse promotes osteocyte apoptosis, while mechanical stimulation by fluid shear stress promotes osteocyte survival, by modulating the Bcl-2/Bax expression ratio.

Aminoglycosides (ASM)

Aminoglycoside is a medicinal and bacteriologic category of traditional Gram-negative antibacterial medications that inhibit protein synthesis and contain as a portion of the molecule an amino-modified glycoside. Discover the latest research on aminoglycoside here.

BCL-2 Family Proteins

BLC-2 family proteins are a group that share the same homologous BH domain. They play many different roles including pro-survival signals, mitochondria-mediated apoptosis and removal or damaged cells. They are often regulated by phosphorylation, affecting their catalytic activity. Here is the latest research on BCL-2 family proteins.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
