Abstract: Objective: To explore the effect of Fam83h mutation on proliferation and migration of mouse osteoblasts (MOB) and the related mechanism. Methods: The whole body of wild-type and Fam83h-mutated mice were analyzed by micro-CT. CCK-8 and wound healing were detected in MOBs isolated from 3-day-old wild-type and Fam83h-mutated mice. RNA-seq was performed to compare the transcriptional profile of MOBs of Fam83h-mutated mice with wild-type mice. Phosphorylation of AKT1-S473 and AKT1 were measured by Western blot. Results: Fam83h-mutated mice showed decreased bone volume fraction (P<0.001). Fam83h mutation significantly repressed cell proliferation and migration in MOBs (P<0.01). KEGG pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identified PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Furthermore, the protein expression level of p-AKT1-S473 was decreased in MOBs of Fam83h mutation mice. Conclusion: Fam83h mutation may inhibit the proliferation and migration of MOBs through PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, resulting in bone mass loss in Fam83h-mutated mice
