Impaired cell cycle regulation of the osteoblast-related heterodimeric transcription factor Runx2-Cbfβ in osteosarcoma cells

Abstract
Bone formation and osteoblast differentiation require the functional expression of the Runx2/Cbfβ heterodimeric transcription factor complex. Runx2 is also a suppressor of proliferation in osteoblasts by attenuating cell cycle progression in G1. Runx2 levels are modulated during the cell cycle, which are maximal in G1 and minimal beyond the G1/S phase transition (S, G2, and M phases). It is not known whether Cbfβ gene expression is cell cycle controlled in preosteoblasts nor how Runx2 or Cbfβ are regulated during the cell cycle in bone cancer cells. We investigated Runx2 and Cbfβ gene expression during cell cycle progression in MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts, as well as ROS17/2.8 and SaOS-2 osteosarcoma cells. Runx2 protein levels are reduced as expected in MC3T3-E1 cells arrested in late G1 (by mimosine) or M phase (by nocodazole), but not in cell cycle arrested osteosarcoma cells. Cbfβ protein levels are cell cycle independent in both osteoblasts and osteosarcoma cells. In synchronized MC3T3-E
