Overexpression of Runx2 enhanced luciferase expression in calvarial cells isolated from mBSP9.0luc/Runx2+/− mice and mBSP4.8luc/Runx2+/− mice in vitro. Luciferase assays of these calvarial cells showed that the calvarial cells isolated from these mice demonstrated a lower luciferase activity compared with those from the control mice (A). In the calvarial cells isolated from those mice, luciferase assay demonstrated that Runx2 overexpression in calvarial cells isolated from mBSP9.0luc/Runx2+/− mice resulted in a 2.9-fold increase in luciferase level while Runx2 overexpression enhanced the luciferase expression in calvarial cells from mBSP4.8luc/Runx2+/− mice by 1.8-fold (B). aP < 0.0.5 vs. Runx2 +/+ control cells; bP <0.05 vs. the cells from mBSP4.8luc/Runx2+/+ or +/− mice; *P < 0.05 vs. control vector transfected cells.
