Abstract: | To verify whether PTH acts on bone-specific blood vessels and on cells surrounding these blood vessels, 6-week-old male mice were subjected to vehicle (control group) or hPTH [1-34] (20 mu g/kg/day, PTH group) injections for 2 weeks. Femoral metaphyses were used for histochemical and immunohistochemical studies. In control metaphyses, endomucin-positive blood vessels were abundant, but alpha SMA-reactive blood vessels were scarce. In the PTH-administered mice, the lumen of endomucin-positive blood vessels was markedly enlarged. Moreover, many alpha SMA-positive cells were evident near the blood vessels, and seemed to derive from those vessels. These alpha SMA-positive cells neighboring the blood vessels showed features of mesenchymal stromal cells, such as immunopositivity for c-kit and tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNALP). Thus, PTH administration increased the population of perivascular/stromal cells positive for alpha SMA and c-kit, which were likely committed to the osteoblastic lineage. To understand the cellular events that led to increased numbers and size of bone-specific blood vessels, we performed immunohistochemical studies for PTH/PTHrP receptor and VEGF. After PTH administration, PTH/PTHrP receptor, VEGF and its receptor flk-1 were consistently identified in both osteoblasts and blood vessels (endothelial cells and surrounding perivascular cells). Our findings suggest that exogenous PTH increases the number and size of bone-specific blood vessels while fostering perivascular/stromal cells positive for alpha SMA/TNALP/c-kit. |
