Osteoblastic differentiation is an important landmark for bone formation, bone repair and regeneration, however it is a very complex process controlled by different signaling mechanisms. Several groups have reported that the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling system is responsible for regulating osteoblast cell differentiation. Nonetheless, to date, the principle role of the cAMP molecules related to this process remains controversial. Moreover, the underlying cAMP-dependent signaling cascade governing the osteoblastic differentiation has not been clarified. In this report, we investigated the roles of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) signaling in proliferation, differentiation and mineralization of osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells using the PKA-specific small molecule cAMP analogue, 6-Bnz-cAMP, at 100 µM. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, runt transcription factor 2 (Runx2), osteopontin (OPN) and osteocalcin (OCN) protein expressions were used as osteoblast-specific markers to demonstrate osteoblastic differentiation. Further, calcium measurement of the extracellular matrix was employed as the hallmark of matrix mineralization or calcification. We report here that activation of PKA by the small molecule 6-Bnz-cAMP induces osteoblastic differentiation and matrix mineralization of osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. Moreover, 6-Bnz-cAMP does not induce cytotoxicity to the cells as revealed by our cell proliferation studies. Therefore, based on these findings, we propose that the PKA-specific small molecule 6-Bnz-cAMP may serve as a novel bone-inducing growth factor for repairing and regenerating bone tissues during bone regenerative engineering.
