SummaryWe have previously demonstrated that heparin produces cancellous bone loss in rats due in part to a decrease in the number of osteoblasts lining the trabecular bone surface. In the present study, we use a stromal-derived cell culture system together with measurements of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, to compare the effects of heparin and the low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), Fragmin, on osteoblast differentiation in vitro. In addition, we examined the possibility that both heparin and LMWH can induce adipogenesis in our stromal cell culture system. Both heparin and LMWH were found to produce a statistically significant (P <0.01) and concentration-dependent decrease in the number of osteoblasts while increasing the number of adipocytes. When the effects of gravimetrically equivalent amounts of heparin and LMWH were compared, heparin had a 4-fold greater effect than LMWH. In contrast to heparin, N-desulfated heparin was found to have minimal effects on both osteoblast and adipocyte differentiation indicating that the heparin effect is not only chain-length dependent but also charge-dependent. The observation that LMWH has less of an effect on bone formation than heparin is compatible with the results of clinical trials indicating that LMWH produces less bone loss after long-term administration.

We have previously demonstrated that continuous infusion of low molecular weight (LMW) heparin delays autoantibody production and development of lupus nephritis in (NZBxNZW)F1 (B/W) mice. In this study we investigated the effect of LMW heparin on renal cytokine and chemokine expression and on nucleosome-mediated activation of nucleosome-specific splenocytes. Total mRNA extracted from kidneys of heparin-treated or -untreated B/W mice was analysed by qPCR for the expression of several cytokines, chemokines, and Toll-like receptors. Splenocytes taken from B/W mice were stimulated with nucleosomes with or without the presence of heparin. Splenocyte cell proliferation as thymidine incorporation and the expression of costimulatory molecules and cell activation markers were measured. Heparin treatment of B/W mice reduced thein vivoexpression of CCR2, IL1β, and TLR7 compared to untreated B/W mice. Nucleosome-induced cell proliferation of splenocytes was not influenced by heparin. The expression of CD80, CD86, CD69, CD25, CTLA-4, and TLR 2, 7, 8, and 9 was upregulated upon stimulation by nucleosomes, irrespective of whether heparin was added to the cell culture or not. In conclusion, treatment with heparin lowers the kidney expression of proinflammatory mediators in B/W mice but does not affect nucleosomal activation of splenocytes.

Abstract The disinfectant present in most disinfectant-virus mixtures is inherently toxic to cell cultures and thus precludes the observation of viral inactivation at low dilutions of virus. Therefore, a method employing Sephadex was devised which would remove the cytotoxic activity of virus-disinfectant mixtures. These studies show that Sephadex is an acceptable detoxicant for numerous low molecular weight compounds and does not affect the biological activity of Herpes simplex virus. Data are presented on the effect of low molecular weight chemical compounds, i.e., phenol, ethyl alcohol, quaternary ammonium compounds, and halogens, on H.Ep. 2 cell culture and the macroplaque strain of H. simplex virus.
