Human growth hormone (GH) has recently been found to stimulate osteoclastic resorption, cysteineproteinase and metalloproteinase activities (MMP-2 and MMP-9) in vitro via insulin-like growth factor-I (lGF-I) produced by stromal cells. The present study inve tigated the effects of two extracellular matrix components (vitronectin and type-I collagen) on hGHand hIGF-1-stimulated osteoclastic re orption and proteinase activities in a rabbit bone cell model. After 4 day of rabbit bone cell culture on dentin slices with vitronectin coating, hGH and hIGF-1 stimul ated bone resorption and hlGF-1 upmodulated cysteine-proteinase activities. MMP-2 expression (but not resorption , cathepsin or MMP-9 activities) was upmodulated by hGH and hIGF-1 on dentin slices coated with type I collagen as compared to those without coating. Then, vitronectin was synergistic with hIGF-1 in the regulation of cysteine-prote in ase production whereas collagen howed synergy with hGH and hIGF-1 in the regulation of MMP-2 production. Anti-avID tota lly abolished the effect of hGH and hIGF-1 on metalloproteinase relea e, but had no influence on cathepsin release. The results suggest that cysteine-p roteinase modulation is not mediated by avl33 integrin (strongly expressed on osteoclastic surface) whereas the resorption process and metalloproteinase modulation are clearly · mediated by this integrin. Our finding about the collagen coating also suggests that hGH- and hIGF-1-stimulated MMP-2 activ it y are mediated, along with aviD integrin, by another adhesion molecule.
