| Abstract | To study the effects and importance of fluoride on FBs in the development of extraperiosteal calcification and the ossification of skeletal fluorosis, the presence of the osteogenic phenotype, which is indicated by the expression of core-binding factor 1 (Cbfa1) and osteocalcin (OCN), in an FB cell line (L929) and in osteoblasts (OBs) exposed to fluoride was determined. Fibroblasts and osteoblasts were exposed to different concentrations of fluoride (0, 0.0001, 0.001, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0 and 20.0 mg/L F(-)). By using RT-PCR and ELISA, the mRNA levels of Cbfa1 and OCN were measured at 48 h, and the protein levels of Cbfa1 and OCN were measured at 2, 4, 24, 48 and 72 h. The data demonstrated the following: (1) The Cbfa1 protein level in fluoride-treated fibroblasts clearly increased at 48 h in the groups treated with 0.0001, 0.001, 0.1, 1.0 and 20.0 mg/L F(-). The Cbfa1 protein level of the group treated with 10 mg/L F(-) at 72 h was higher than that of the control group. The level of Cbfa1 mRNA in the fibroblasts was much higher at 48 h in the group treated with 10.0 mg/L F(-) than in the control group. (2) The OCN protein level in fluoride-treated fibroblasts was significantly higher than that of the control group in the 0.0001, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0 and 20.0 mg/L F(-) groups at 2 h, and in the 0.001 and 0.1 F(-) groups at 4 h. A slightly higher level of OCN mRNA in fluoride-treated fibroblasts was also found in the 1.0 and 20.0 mg/L F(-) groups compared to the control group. (3) The expressions of Cbfa1 and OCN in osteoblasts treated with the same experimental conditions as the fibroblasts were up-regulated by fluoride following the same trend as in the fibroblasts. Our results showed an increase in the expression of Cbfa1 and OCN in fibroblasts and osteoblasts exposed to fluoride and suggested that the osteogenic function of fibroblasts induced by fluoride could play an important role in the development of extraperiosteal ossification during skeletal fluorosis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
