Cellular responses of normal human osteoblasts to multiple environmental stressors in vitro / Aisha Mohd Din

Cells respond to environmental stress via the activation of various survival pathways and may possibly end with the initiation of cell death in order to eliminate damaged cells. The ability of cells to mount an adaptive or destructive response depends on the type and duration of the stress. The resp...

The response to continuous orbital fluid shear stress (OFSS), moderate hypothermia (35°C) and moderate hyperthermia (39°) in this study demonstrated an anabolic effect on Normal Human Osteoblast (NHOst) cells where the cell metabolism, differentiation and proliferation was either promoted or retained. The anabolic effect correlated with an inhibition of osteoclast activity by reducing the RANKL/OPG ratio.

Exposure to acute 1 h temperature stress lead to an overall reduction in NHOst metabolism, mRNA and protein expression. Overexpression of Rbm3 and Hsp70 promoted NHOst viability and proliferation in response to short and prolonged moderate hypo- and hyperthermia but not in severe exposure. Up regulation of Rbm3 was involved in the adaptation of NHOst survival while Cirbp was to inhibit NHOst survival.
