Extracellular Calcium-Induced Calcium Transient Regulating the Proliferation of Osteoblasts through Glycolysis Metabolism Pathways
During bone remodeling, high extracellular calcium levels accumulated around the resorbing bone tissue as soon as the activation of osteoclasts. However, if and how calcium is involved in the regulation of bone remodeling remains unclear. In this study, the effect of high extracellular calcium conce...

description | During bone remodeling, high extracellular calcium levels accumulated around the resorbing bone tissue as soon as the activation of osteoclasts. However, if and how calcium is involved in the regulation of bone remodeling remains unclear. In this study, the effect of high extracellular calcium concentrations on osteoblast proliferation and differentiation, intracellular calcium ([Ca<sup>2+</sup>]<sub>i</sub>) levels, metabolomics, and the expression of proteins related to energy metabolism were investigated. Our results showed that high extracellular calcium levels initiated a [Ca<sup>2+</sup>]<sub>i</sub> transient via the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) and promoted the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells. Metabolomics analysis showed that the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells was dependent on aerobic glycolysis, but not the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Moreover, the proliferation and glycolysis of MC3T3-E1 cells were suppressed following the inhibition of AKT. These results indicate that calcium transient triggered by high extracellular calcium levels activated glycolysis via AKT-related signaling pathways and ultimately promoted the proliferation of osteoblasts. |
