This study aims to examine the role of E26 transformation-specific 1(ETS1) in the inhibition of osteoblast differentiation and proliferation caused by chronic HG, as well as the underlying mechanism. Chronic HG treatment downregulated ETS1 expression and inhibited differentiation and proliferation of MC3 T3-E1 cells. Downregulation of ETS1 expression inhibited the differentiation and proliferation of MC3 T3-E1 cells under normal glucose conditions, and ETS1 overexpression attenuated the damage to cells exposed to chronic HG. In addition, ETS1 overexpression reversed the decrease in runt-related transcription factor 2(Runx2) expression in MC3 T3-E1 cells treated with chronic HG. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation(ChIP) and luciferase reporter assays, we confirmed that ETS1 directly bound to and increased the activity of the Runx2 promoter. In summary, our study suggested that ETS1 was involved in the inhibitory effect of chronic HG on osteogenic differentiation and proliferation and may be a potential therapeutic target for diabetes-induced osteoporosis.展开更多
