Abstract
Previous studies have suggested some interactions between muscle tissues and bone metabolism. The constitutively activating mutation (R206H) of the BMP type I receptor, activin-like-kinase 2 (ALK2), causes fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), which is characterized by extensive ossifications within muscle tissues. In the present study, we revealed that Tmem176b mRNA levels were upregulated by stable transfection of ALK2 (R206H) in mouse myoblastic C2C12 cells. Transient Tmem176b overexpression elevated levels of osteoblast differentiation markers, such as Osterix and alkaline phosphatase, as well as mineralization in C2C12 cells. In addition, Tmem176b overexpression elevated the levels of these markers in mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. On the other hand, Tmem176b overexpression suppressed the levels of myogenic markers, such as MyoD and myogenin in C2C12 cells, although it did not affect the levels of chondrogenic markers, such as type II and X collagens. In conclusion, the present study is the first to demonstrate that Tmem176b induces the differentiation of myoblasts into an osteoblast lineage.
