• ABSTRACT Osteoblasts are versatile cells involved in multiple whole‐body processes, including bone formation and immune response. Secretory amounts and patterns of osteoblast‐derived proteins such as osteopontin (OPN) and osteocalcin (OCN) modulate osteoblast function. However, the regulatory mechanism of OPN and OCN expression remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate that p54/p46 c‐jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK) inhibition suppresses matrix mineralization and OCN expression but increases OPN expression in MC3T3‐E1 cells and primary osteoblasts treated with differentiation inducers, including ascorbic acid, bone morphogenic protein‐2, or fibroblast growth factor 2. Preinhibition of JNK before the onset of differentiation increased the number of osteoblasts that highly express OPN but not OCN (OPN‐OBs), indicating that JNK affects OPN secretory phenotype at the early stage of osteogenic differentiation. Additionally, we identified JNK2 isoform as being critically involved in OPN‐OB differentiation. Microarray analysis revealed that OPN‐OBs express characteristic transcription factors, cell surface markers, and cytokines, including glycoprotein hormone α2 and endothelial cell–specific molecule 1. Moreover, we found that inhibitor of DNA binding 4 is an important regulator of OPN‐OB differentiation and that dual‐specificity phosphatase 16, a JNK‐specific phosphatase, functions as an endogenous regulator of OPN‐OB induction. OPN‐OB phenotype was also observed following LPS from Porphyromonas gingivalis stimulation during osteogenic differentiation. Collectively, these results suggest that the JNK‐Id4 signaling axis is crucial in the control of OPN and OCN expression during osteoblastic differentiation.—Kusuyama, J., Amir, M. S., Albertson, B.
