PDGF, a multiple mitogen, stimulates osteoblast replication and bone collagen degradation, and it has been described as a key factor in bone metabolism. Recently, PDGF was disclosed to be the autocrine cytokine of human osteoblasts. PDGF's effect on human bone development needs elucidation, and the mechanism of PDGF-AA autocrining remains unclear. In this work, osteoblasts were isolated from human fetal calvaria which resemble the cells in developing bone tissue. Using an in vitro model, the effect of PDGF-AA on the cells was investigated with the results showing that (i) after PDGF-AA was added into the medium for 24 h, PCI of the cells increased by 48.2% (P<0.05), and PCI decreased after the removal of PDGF-AA. (ii) 24 h after treatment with PDGF-AA, the percentage of osteoblasts in G(0)/G(1)phase decreased and that in S phase increased. (iii) The expression of PDGF-A mRNA was upregulated by PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, TGFbeta,and bFGF respectively. These results proved that: (i) PDGF-AA enhances cell replication by accelerating cell recycle and inducing the quiescent cells into the proliferation portion of cell cycle. (ii) PDGF-AA is a self-imposed cytokine in human fetal osteoblast replication.
