Normal mouse osteoblast cell culture
Studies indicate that the invasion ability of bacteria are most relevant to the magnitude of the osteoblast response [ 42 43 ] . In previous experiments examining the production of TRAIL by S. aureus -infected osteoblasts, bacteria were in direct contact with the cells [ 41 ] , such that the potential of S. aureus extracellular products to induce osteoblast expression and secretion of TRAIL could not be addressed.
Utilization of an anti-mouse TRAIL antibody would be predicted to further reduce the level of S. aureus -induced apoptosis in infected mouse osteoblast cultures.
Although the exact mechanism whereby S. aureus induces TRAIL expression remains to be determined, this study suggests that major bacterial surface structures present in the osteoblast extracellular environment do not induce TRAIL.
It has been hypothesized that statins mediate their effects by increasing the expression in bone of the growth factor bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2) which in turn leads to osteoblast differentiation and bone formation [ 2 ] . This mechanism of action has been addressed by Baumann et al.
