摘要
Decalpenic acid is a natural small molecule previously isolated from the fermentation broth of fungi that induces early osteoblastic markers in pluripotent mesenchymal cells. Treatment of mouse pluripotent mesenchymal C3H10T1/2 cells with decalpenic acid gave rise to a morphological change similar to that induced by the treatment with retinoic acid, i.e. the cells adopted a more elongated spindle shape. Using a retinoic acid response element reporter and receptor activity assays, we show that decalpenic acid is a new retinoid with selectivity towards retinoic acid receptors 纬 and 伪. The induction of early osteoblastic markers by decalpenic acid was significantly inhibited by treatment with the retinoid antagonist, LE540, or with small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of retinoic acid receptor 纬. These results demonstrated that decalpenic acid induces early osteoblastic markers in pluripotent mesenchymal cells through activation of retinoic acid receptor 纬.
