Abstract: Bone matrix is mainly composed of type I collagen and apatite and undergoes renewal during remodeling. During this process, reversal cells recondition the resorbed surfaces left by osteoclasts and deposit a thin layer of proteins (mainly collagen) to form reversal lines, this is an obligatory step in the link between bone resorption and formation. The collagen layer is critical for osteoblast growth and the formation of new bone matrix. In order to verify the hypothesis, we modified a widely accepted simulated body fluid by increasing the relative proportion of Ca2+ and HPO42- to effectively generate a continuous bone-like apatite substrate. Then the substrates with or without collagen pre-coating were used for MC3T3-E1 osteoblast-like cells culturing and inducing them to differentiate. The cell attachment, proliferation, and the expression of two osteogenic markers were detected. The results indicated that osteoblasts on an apatite substrate showed retracted morphologies and delayed proliferation and differentiation, and tended to secrete more collagen before they were committed to differentiation. After collagen coating of apatite substrates, osteoblasts maintained spreading morphology and higher proliferation rates, and expressed high levels of alkaline phosphatase after differentiation induction. This most probably indicated that the collagen pre-coated on apatite substrates, as deposited on the resorbed surface by reversal cells during bone remodeling, is important for osteoblast attachment, proliferation, and differentiation.
