We have developed a reliable procedure for isolating endosteal osteoblasts from mouse trabecular bone. Endosteal osteoblasts were obtained by migration and proliferation of the cells from the metaphyseal bone surface of caudal vertebrae onto nylon meshes. The isolated cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum. The cell population consisted of 95% alkaline-phosphatase-positive cells. The cell level of alkaline phosphatase was elevated (1.19 +/- 0.26 (SD) mumol PNP/mn/mg protein) and the enzyme activity was heat-inhibitable, indicating its skeletal origin. Light and electron microscopic observation revealed that cells have morphologic and ultrastructural appearance of typical osteoblasts with high protein synthesis activity. Osteoblasts grown in multilayers in the presence of 50 micrograms/ml ascorbic acid produced within 4 days an abundant fibrous intercellular collagenous matrix forming nodules in which osteocyte-like cells were embedded. Immunolabeling revealed synthesis of type I collagen but no detectable type III collagen. In presence of 7 mM beta-glycerophosphate the matrix became mineralized after 14-21 days of culture. Mineralization could not be induced by mouse skin fibroblasts cultured under similar conditions. The mineral deposits were closely associated with the collagen matrix, consisted of EDTA-removable, Von Kossa and alizarin red S stainable material and were composed of hydroxyapatite crystals identified by X-ray electron probe microanalysis. The isolated endosteal osteoblasts also displayed an intense (+457%) increase in intracellular cAMP production in response to human (1-34) PTH (2 x 10(-8) M) stimulation. The confluent cells responded to 20 nM 1,25(OH)2D3 by a significant 45% reduction in heat labile alkaline phosphatase activity. This procedure allowed us to isolate from trabecular bone a cell population that differentiates into osteoblasts in vitro, respond to calcitropic hormones and that retains its capacity to form a calcified bone tissue in culture. This method provided us a culture system for investigating the differentiation and metabolism of endosteal osteoblastic bone forming cells.
