R-spondins are a new group of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling agonists, however, the role of these proteins in bone remains unclear. We reported herein that R-sponin1 (Rspo1) acted synergistically with Wnt3A to activate Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in the uncommitted mesenchymal C2C12 cells. Furthermore, we found that Rspo1 at concentrations as low as 10 ng/ml synergized strongly with Wnt3A to induce C2C12 osteoblastic differentiation and osteoprotegerin expression. These events were blocked by Wnt/beta-catenin signaling antagonist Dickkopf-1. Finally, we demonstrated that Rspo1 synergized with Wnt3A to induce primary mouse osteoblast differentiation. Together, these findings suggest that Rpos1 may play an important role in bone remodeling. (C) 2008 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
