Beta-arrestin2 regulates parathyroid hormone effects on a p38 MAPK and NFkappaB gene expression network in osteoblasts.

ABSTRACT: Interaction of the cytoplasmic adaptor molecule beta-arrestin2 with the activated parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTHrP receptor inhibits G protein mediated signaling and triggers MAPKs signaling. In turn, the effects of both intermittent (i.) and continuous (c.) PTH on bone are altered in beta-arrestin2-deficient (Arrb2(-/-)) mice. To elucidate the expression profile of bone genes responsive to PTH and targeted for regulation by beta-arrestin2, we performed microarray analysis using total RNA from primary osteoblastic cells isolated from wild-type (WT) and Arrb2(-/-) mice. By comparing gene expression profiles in cells exposed to i.PTH, c.PTH or vehicle (Veh) for 2 weeks, we found that i.PTH specifically up-regulated 215 sequences (including beta-arrestin2) and down-regulated 200 sequences in WT cells, about two-thirds of them being under the control of beta-arrestin2. In addition, beta-arrestin2 appeared necessary to the down-regulation of a genomic cluster coding for small leucin-rich proteins (SLRPs) including osteoglycin, osteomodulin and asporin. Pathway analyses identified a main gene network centered on p38 MAPK and NFkappaB that requires beta-arrestin2 for up- or down-regulation by i.PTH, and a smaller network of PTH-regulated genes centered on TGFB1, that is normally repressed by beta-arrestin2. In contrast the expression of some known PTH gene targets regulated by the cAMP/PKA pathway was not affected by the presence or absence of beta-arrestin2 in osteoblasts. These results indicate that beta-arrestin2 targets prominently p38 MAPK- and NFkappaB-dependent expression in osteoblasts exposed to i.PTH, and delineates new molecular mechanisms to explain the anabolic and catabolic effects of PTH on bone.

Project description:Parathyroid hormone (PTH) exerts dual effects, anabolic or catabolic, on bone when administrated intermittently or continuously, via mechanisms that remain largely unknown. PTH binding to cells induces PTH-responsive genes including primary response genes (PRGs). PRGs are rapidly induced without the need for de novo protein synthesis, thereby playing pivotal roles in directing subsequent molecular responses. In this study, to understand the role of PRGs in mediating osteoblastic cellular responses to PTH, we investigated whether various durations of PTH differentially induce PRGs in primary osteoblasts and MC3T3-E1. Nurr1 and RANKL, PRGs known for their anabolic and catabolic roles in bone metabolism respectively, presented distinctive transient vs. sustained induction kinetics. Corroborating their roles, maximum induction of Nurr1 was sufficiently achieved by brief PTH in as little as 30 minutes and continued beyond that, while maximum induction of RANKL was achieved only by prolonged PTH over 4 hours. Our data suggested distinctive regulatory mechanisms for Nurr1 and RANKL: PKA-mediated chromatin rearrangement for transcriptional regulation of both PRGs and ERK-mediated transcriptional regulation for RANKL but not Nurr1. Lastly, we classified PRGs into two groups based on the induction kinetics: The group that required brief PTH for maximum induction included Nur77, cox-2, and Nurr1, all of which are reported to play roles in bone formation. The other group that required prolonged PTH for maximum induction included IL-6 and RANKL, which play roles in bone resorption. Together, our data suggested the crucial role of PRG groups in mediating differential osteoblastic cellular responses to intermittent vs. continuous PTH. Continued research into the regulatory mechanisms of PKA and ERK for PRGs will help us better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the dual effects of PTH, thereby optimizing the current therapeutic use of PTH for osteoporosis.
