PG - 228-36 AB - Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. The morbidity and mortality of lung cancer have markedly increased in the past decade with at least 75% of patients with lung cancer having evidence of metastases at the time of diagnosis. It frequently metastasizes to bone resulting in osteolytic lesions with unknown mechanisms. The aim of this study was to identify factors that mediate lung cancer-induced osteoclast activity in vivo. Using a human cytokine antibody array, we first determined cytokine levels in a conditioned medium collected from non-small cell lung cancer A549 and H1299 cells and the non-neoplastic human bronchial epithelial BEAS2B cells. Both A549 and H1229 cells produced significantly higher amount of several cytokines including monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) and interleukin 8 (IL-8) compared with BEAS2B cells. These findings were confirmed by ELISA. From clinical serum specimens, we also observed that MCP-1 and IL-8 levels were increased in lung cancer patients with bone metastases compared with the patients with localized tumor. Next, we investigated the effects of MCP-1 on osteoclast formation in vitro using murine bone marrow-derived monocytes. A549 conditioned medium induced osteoclast formation that was inhibited by neutralizing antibodies against MCP-1. Finally, A549 cells were stably transfected with MCP-1 short hairpin RNA. The MCP-1 knockdown A549 cells were implanted into the tibia of severe combined immunodeficient mice for 4 weeks. The MCP-1 knockdown significantly diminished A549 cell growth. We conclude that MCP-1 promotes lung cancer-induced osteoclast activity and thus bone resorptive lesions in vivo.
