ABSTRACT
Tmem119 was identified as a bone anabolic factor in osteoblasts, however the roles of Tmem119 on bone repair have remained unknown. Therefore, we herein investigated the roles of Tmem119 on bone repair by examining the bone repair process after a femoral bone defect using Tmem119-deficient mice. In Tmem119-deficient mice, bone repair after a femoral bone defect was significantly delayed 10 and 14 days after bone injury in female and male mice with 3-dimensional micro-computed tomography analyses, respectively. The number of alkaline phosphatase-positive cells at the damaged sites was significantly decreased 7 days after bone injury in Tmem119-deficient mice, although the number of Osterix-positive cells was not significantly different 4 days after bone injury. The number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive multinucleated cells as well as the number and luminal area of CD31-positive vessels at the damaged sites were not significantly different between Tmem119-deficient and wild-type mice. The present study first showed that Tmem119 deficiency delayed bone repair partly through a decrease in the osteoblastic bone formation of differentiated osteoblasts.
