Colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1), also called macrophage colony-stimulating factor, is the growth factor for the cells of the mononuclear phagocytic system. Furthermore, CSF-1 is essential in osteoclastogenesis and also affects mature osteoclasts. The receptor for CSF-1 was demonstrated on cells of the osteoclast lineage, with highest levels on the mature cells. This study investigated whether the binding of CSF-1 to isolated rat osteoclasts is modulated by the growth factor itself. Exposure of osteoclasts to CSF-1 for 1 hour virtually abolished binding of the growth factor. After removal of CSF-1, binding sites were restored within 4 hours. This recovery was blocked by cycloheximide, indicating the dependence on new protein synthesis for reexpression of receptors on the cell surface. The observed downregulation of CSF-1 binding sites might be a mechanism to control the effects of the growth factor on mature osteoclasts.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010010	Osteoclasts	A large multinuclear cell associated with the BONE RESORPTION. An odontoclast, also called cementoclast, is cytomorphologically the same as an osteoclast and is involved in CEMENTUM resorption.	Odontoclasts,Cementoclast,Cementoclasts,Odontoclast,Osteoclast
D011485	Protein Binding	The process in which substances, either endogenous or exogenous, bind to proteins, peptides, enzymes, protein precursors, or allied compounds. Specific protein-binding measures are often used as assays in diagnostic assessments.	Plasma Protein Binding Capacity,Binding, Protein

D003513	Cycloheximide	Antibiotic substance isolated from streptomycin-producing strains of Streptomyces griseus. It acts by inhibiting elongation during protein synthesis.	Actidione,Cicloheximide
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D015536	Down-Regulation	A negative regulatory effect on physiological processes at the molecular, cellular, or systemic level. At the molecular level, the major regulatory sites include membrane receptors, genes (GENE EXPRESSION REGULATION), mRNAs (RNA, MESSENGER), and proteins.

D016173	Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor	A mononuclear phagocyte colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) synthesized by mesenchymal cells. The compound stimulates the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of hematopoietic cells of the monocyte-macrophage series. M-CSF is a disulfide-bonded glycoprotein dimer with a MW of 70 kDa. It binds to a specific high affinity receptor (RECEPTOR, MACROPHAGE COLONY-STIMULATING FACTOR).

D016186	Receptor, Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor	A receptor for MACROPHAGE COLONY-STIMULATING FACTOR encoded by the c-fms proto-oncogene (GENES, FMS). It contains an intrinsic protein-tyrosine kinase activity. When activated the receptor undergoes autophosphorylation, phosphorylation of down-stream signaling molecules and rapid down-regulation.
