Molecules and Cells ST5 Positively Regulates Osteoclastogenesis via Src/Syk/Calcium Signaling Pathways Min Kyung Kim, Bongjun Kim, Jun-Oh Kwon, Min-Kyoung Song, Suhan Jung, Zang Hee Lee, and Hong- Hee Kim* Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, BK21 Program and Dental Research Institute (DRI), School of Dentistry, Seoul National University, Seoul 03080, Korea *Correspondence: [email protected] https://doi.org/10.14348/molcells.2019.0189 www.molcells.org For physiological or pathological understanding of bone INTRODUCTION disease caused by abnormal behavior of osteoclasts (OCs), functional studies of molecules that regulate the generation Bone is a dynamic organ that is constantly being disrupted and action of OCs are required. In a microarray approach, and restructured for maintenance of homeostasis (Zaidi, we found the suppression of tumorigenicity 5 (ST5) gene 2007).

Although the (MNCs) generated from a monocyte/macrophage lineage of roles of ST5 in cancer and β-cells have been reported, the hemopoietic cells (Boyle et al., 2003; Rho et al., 2004). The function of ST5 in bone cells has not yet been investigated. action of excessive OCs induces an imbalance in homeostasis, Knockdown of ST5 by siRNA reduced OC differentiation triggering pathological bone diseases, such as osteoporosis from primary precursors. Moreover, ST5 downregulation (Zaidi, 2007). decreased expression of NFATc1, a key transcription factor Osteoclastogenesis is a multi-step process including com- for osteoclastogenesis.

ST5 reduction caused a decrease in activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) (Boyle et al., RANKL-evoked calcium oscillation and inhibited translocation 2003; Rho et al., 2004).

Finally, these signaling pathways induce expression of the nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (NFATc1), which is a key transcription factor for osteoclastogenesis.
