Collagenase production by rodent osteoblasts in response to calciotropic hormones has led to the hypothesis that bone cells play a major role in bone resorption by degrading the surface osteoid layer, thereby exposing the underlying mineralized matrix to osteoclastic action. Many studies suggest, however, that this model might not apply to bone resorption in the human. Human osteoblasts have been shown to produce gelatinase-A (72 kDa) and TIMP-1 (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases), but previous investigators have been unable to demonstrate the synthesis of collagenase by human osteoblasts either constitutively or in response to bone resorptive agents. In the present study the ability of human osteoblasts to produce the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) collagenase, gelatinase and stromelysin, and their specific inhibitors TIMPs-1 and 2, was examined using highly sensitive and specific antisera and by zymography. Semi-quantitative histomorphometric data showed that cells cultured on either glass or a type I collagen substratum constitutively synthesized gelatinase-A and TIMP-1. On type I collagen, however, a small proportion of unstimulated cells produce both collagenase (7%) and gelatinase-B (95 kDa; 3%). Treatment of cells with either parathyroid hormone (PTH), 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), or partially purified mononuclear cell conditioned medium (MCM), stimulated the synthesis of collagenase, gelatinase-B and stromelysin; MCM was 2- to 3-fold more potent than either PTH or 1,25(OH)2D3. Zymography using SDS/PAGE on conditioned media from cells cultured on type I collagen films revealed the presence of active gelatinase-A and that MCM stimulated progelatinase-B synthesis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
