Arctiin elevates osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells by modulating cyclin D1.

ABSTRACT: Osteoporosis is a systemic disorder of bone metabolism. This study aimed to investigate the impacts and possible mechanisms of Arctiin, a lignin isolated from Arctium lappa on MC3T3-E1 osteoblast differentiation. In this study, after treatment with different concentrations of Arctiin, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blotting were used to estimate the expression of osteogenesis markers. Then, the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was detected by an ALP assay kit and calcium nodules staining was evaluated by alizarin red staining (ARS). Additionally, the regulatory effects of Arctiin on cyclin D1 (Ccnd1) was assessed by measurement of protein expression. Subsequently, the functions of Ccnd1 silencing on the osteogenic differentia
