Abstract: PURPOSE:To investigate the influence of Pg-LPS stimulated monocyte (RAW264.7) culture supernatant on the OPG/RANKL expression of osteoblastic cells (MC3T3-E1). METHODS:The culture supernatant of monocytes stimulated with Pg-LPS was applied to osteoblasts MC3T3-E1 with different diluted concentrations(10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%) simultaneously for 24h, then RT-PCR was used to detect the expression changes of OPG/RANKL mRNA.Western blot was used to detect the expression changes of OPG/RANKL protein. The data was analyzed by ANOVA using SPSS 17.0 software package. RESULTS:After stimulation of different concentrations of inflammatory supernatant, the expressions of OPGmRNA and protein significantly decreased (P<0.05), whereas the expressions of RANKLmRNA and protein significantly increased(P<0.05), both of them were in a concentration-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS:These results indicate that Pg-LPS stimulated RAW264.7 culture supernatant can inhibit the osteogenesis and differentiation of the osteoblasts through inhibiting the expression of OPGmRNA and protein of osteoblastic cells, while increasing the expression of RANKLmRNA and protein in a concentration-dependent manner .
