The mitogenic activity in the unfractionated mixture of proteins released from adult bovine bone matrix during demineralization with ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) has been examined. Bovine bone extract (BBE) from 1 to 25 micrograms protein per ml stimulated proliferation of chick embryo calvaria bone cells, newborn mouse bone cells, and osteoblastlike cell lines MMB-1 and ROS 17/2.8. BBE also stimulated DNA synthesis in cells from chick embryo cartilage, skin and skeletal muscle tissues and fibroblastlike BALB/c 3T3 and NRK cells. BBE contained beta transforming growth factor (TGF) activity (NRK cell colony formation in soft agar in the presence of epidermal growth factor EGF). The cell specificity results suggest that BBE contains more than one growth factor, including a beta TGF and a factor that is not specific for bone cells, and all of the bone derived growth factor activities that have been described previously, including SGF, are apparently present in BBE. Maximal stimulation of chick embryo calvarial cell DNA synthesis by BBE was equal to or exceeded maximal stimulation by nonosseous growth factors that have been reported to stimulate DNA synthesis in bone organ cultures (EGF, fibroblast growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, insulinlike growth factor I, and multiplication stimulating activity). Combinations of BBE with maximally stimulatory concentrations of each growth factor stimulated DNA synthesis to a greater magnitude than did each growth factor alone. These results suggest that combinations of bone derived and systemic factors can coordinately stimulate bone cell proliferation.
