Figure 11: Effect of exogenous PGE2 on the accumulation of OPG in the supematants of MG-63, Saos-2 and hOB in the presence of COX inhibitors.
PGEj (10"^ M)
significantly decreased the accumulation of OPG in the
supematants of hOB but not in immortalized cell Unes. ★ P< 0.05 compared to control at the same time point. N = 3-5 (in immortalized cell lines, N is the number of différent experiments and in human osteoblasts represent the number of différent donors used to obtain osteoblasts).Indomethacin and Diclofenac were used at the concentrations of 10"® M and 10'® M respectively.

Figure 20: Effect of U46619 an agonist of TP receptor on the accumulation of OPG in the supematants of MG-63, Saos-2 and hOB in the presence of COX inhibitors. The TP (10"^ M) agonist had no effect on the accumulation of OPG. N = 3-5 (in immortalized cell lines, N is the number of différent experiments and in human osteohlasts it represents the number of différent donors used to ohtain osteohlasts). Indomethacin and Diclofenac were used
at the concentrations of 10"^ M
and 10'^ M
respectively.
