抄録

Previously, CD47 gene expression has been shown to increase during mandible development using a micro array technique. To determine the function of CD47 in osteoblasts, CD47 was silenced using siRNA in vitro. The TGF-β1 and phosphorylated-Smad2 levels and transcription factor genes related to bone metabolism increased dose-dependently with CD47 silencing. Furthermore, we determined the distribution of CD47 in mouse embryonic E13 and E15 in vivo. The CD47-positive cells were localized in Meckel's cartilage and antenatal mandibular bone. These results suggest that TGF-β1 signaling and mandible development might be regulated by CD47. (J Oral Sci 53, 169-175, 2011)
