In teleosts, prolactin is involved in calcium regulation, but its role in scale/bone metabolism is unclear. Using the in-vitro system with goldfish scales developed recently, we explored the effects of teleost prolactin, growth hormone, and somatolactin on osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Addition of prolactin at concentrations of 0.01-100 ng/ml reduced osteoclastic activity, partly via osteoclast apoptosis, after 6-18 h incubation. Conversely, growth hormone and somatolactin at a concentration of 100 ng/ml increased osteoclastic activity after 18 h incubation, indicating the specificity of the inhibitory effect of prolactin on osteoclastic activity. On the other hand, these three hormones promoted osteoblastic activity at concentrations of 10-100 ng/ml. The results from this study are the first demonstration of direct effects of prolactin on scale/bone metabolism and osteoclastic activity in a teleost.
在硬骨鱼中,催乳素参与钙调节,但其在鳞片/骨骼代谢中的作用尚不清楚。利用最近开发的金鱼鳞片体外系统,我们探究了硬骨鱼催乳素、生长激素和生长抑素对破骨细胞和成骨细胞的影响。在孵育6-18小时后,添加浓度为0.01-100 ng/ml的催乳素可降低破骨细胞活性,部分是通过破骨细胞凋亡实现的。相反,浓度为100 ng/ml的生长激素和生长抑素在孵育18小时后会增加破骨细胞活性,这表明催乳素对破骨细胞活性的抑制作用具有特异性。另一方面,这三种激素在浓度为10-100 ng/ml时可促进成骨细胞活性。本研究结果首次证明了催乳素对硬骨鱼鳞片/骨骼代谢和破骨细胞活性具有直接影响。
