    Abstract

    Aim: To examine the effect of daidzin, genistin, and glycitin on the osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (MSC) and the adipogenic transdifferentiation of osteoblasts. Methods: MTT test, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity measurement, Oil Red O stain and measurement were employed. Results: Daidzin, genistin, and glycitin 1 × 10-8, 5 × 10-7, 1 × 10-6, 5 × 10-6, and 1 × 10-5 mol/L all promoted the proliferation of primary mouse bone MSC and osteoblasts. Daidzin 5 × 10-7 mol/L and genistin 1 × 10-6 mol/L promoted the osteogenesis of MSC. Genistin 1 × 10-8, 5 × 10-7, 1 × 10 -6, 5 × 10-6, and 1 × 10-5 mol/L and glycitin 1 × 10-8, 1 × 10-6, and 1 × 10-5 mol/L inhibited the adipogenesis of MSC. Daidzin, genistin, and glycitin 1 × 10-8, 5 × 10-7, 1 × 10-6, 5 × 10-6, and 1 × 10-5 mol/L all inhibited the adipocytic transdifferentiation of osteoblasts. Conclusions: Daidzin, genistin, and glycitin may modulate differentiation of MSC to cause a lineage shift toward the osteoblast and away from the adipocytes, and could inhibit adipocytic transdifferentiation of osteoblasts. They could also be helpful in preventing the development of osteonecrosis. ©2005 CPS and SIMM.
