摘要

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are critical for bone regeneration and induce ectopic bone formation in vivo. The constitutively activating mutation (R206H) of the BMP type 1 receptor, activin A type 1 receptor/activin-like kinase 2 (ACVR1/ALK2), underlies the molecular pathogenesis of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) in which heterotopic ossification occurs in muscle tissue. In the present study, we performed a comparative DNA microarray analysis between stable empty vector- and ALK2(R206H)-transfected mouse myoblastic C2C12 cells. Forty genes were identified whose expression was increased > 3.5 times in the experimental group versus the control. The bone formation-related factor, Tmem119, was included in this group. Osteoblast differentiation markers and mineralization were enhanced in C2C12 cells stably expressing Tmem119. Differentiation of myoblastic cells into myotubes was suppressed but differentiation into chondrocytes was little affected. Transcriptional activity of the BMP-2 signaling molecules, Smad1/5, was increased even in the absence of exogenous BMP-2. Endogenous BMP-2 levels positively correlated with Tmem119 levels. A BMP-2/4 neutralizing antibody and dorsomorphin, an ALK2 inhibitor, antagonized Tmem119-enhanced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels. Tmem119 siRNA antagonized the BMP-2-induced ALP and osteocalcin, but not Runx2 and Osterix, mRNAs, in C2C12 cells. In conclusion, Tmem119 levels were increased by the FOP-associated constitutively activating ALK2 mutation in myoblasts. The data show that Tmem119 promotes the differentiation of myoblasts into osteoblasts and the interaction with the BMP signaling pathway likely occurs downstream of Runx2 and Osterix in myoblasts. Tmem119 may play a critical role in the commitment of myoprogenitor cells to the osteoblast lineage.
