Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effect and mechanism of rosiglitazone on osteoclastic differentiation of RAW264.7 cells under estrogen. Methods: The murine macrophage RAW264.7 cells lines were induced by RANKL in the presence or absence of rosiglitazone and/or estrogen for 5 days. The number of osteoclasts was detected by TRAP staining and the expression of osteoclast related genes and transcription factors were detected by qRT-PCR. The effects of rosiglitazone and/or estrogen on cell viability were detected by MTT. Results: Rosiglitazone and estrogen increased cell viability. RANKL induced osteoclast formation and the number of osteoclasts, osteoclast related genes and translation factors increased under rosiglitazone or estrogen stimulation (P<0.05). However, rosiglitazone inhibited osteoclast formation, and osteoclast related genes and translation factors were significantly decreased under estrogen (P<0.05). Conclusion: Rosiglitazone could inhibit osteoclast formation by TRAF6 and NFATc1 under estrogen.
