Tissue-nonspecific alkaline
phosphatase (TNAP) is essential for bone matrix mineralization,
but the central mechanism for TNAP action remains undefined. We
observed that ATP-dependent 45Ca precipitation was
decreased in calvarial osteoblast matrix vesicle (MV) fractions from
TNAP
/
mice, a model of infantile hypophosphatasia. Because TNAP
hydrolyzes the mineralization inhibitor inorganic pyrophosphate
(PPi), we assessed phosphodiesterase nucleotide pyrophosphatase (PDNP/NTPPPH) activity, which hydrolyzes ATP to generate PPi. Plasma cell membrane glycoprotein-1 (PC-1),
but not the isozyme B10 (also called PDNP3) colocalized with TNAP in
osteoblast MV fractions and pericellular matrix. PC-1 but not B10
increased MV fraction PPi and inhibited 45Ca
precipitation by MVs. TNAP directly antagonized inhibition by PC-1 of
MV-mediated 45Ca precipitation. Furthermore, the
PPi content of MV fractions was greater in cultured
TNAP
/
than TNAP+/+ calvarial osteoblasts. Paradoxically,
transfection with wild-type TNAP significantly increased osteoblast MV
fraction NTPPPH. Specific activity of NTPPPH also was twofold greater
in MV fractions of osteoblasts from TNAP+/+ mice relative to TNAP
/
mice. Thus TNAP attenuates PC-1/NTPPPH-induced PPi
generation that would otherwise inhibit MV-mediated mineralization.
TNAP also paradoxically regulates PC-1 expression and NTPPPH activity
in osteoblasts.
