Multiple actions of extracellular Pi on the skeletal cells are likely to be partly mediated by type III sodium/phosphate (Na⁺/Pi) cotransporters Pit1 and Pit2, although the details are not fully understood. In the current study, to determine the roles of Pit1 and Pit2 in osteoblasts, we generated Pit1-knockout (KO) and Pit2-KO osteoblastic cells by applying CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to an osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 subclone 4. The extracellular Pi level was increased in the Pit1-KO and Pit2-KO clones due to the reduced Pi uptake. Interestingly, in vitro mineralization was accelerated in the Pit1-KO and Pit2-KO clones, although the induction of the expression of osteogenic marker genes was suppressed. In the cells before mineralization, extracellular levels of pyrophosphate (PPi) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were increased in the Pit1-KO and Pit2-KO clones, which might be attributable to the reduced expression and activity of tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). A 24-h treatment with high Pi reduced the expression and activity of TNSALP, suggesting that the suppression of TNSALP in the Pit1-KO and Pit2-KO clones was caused by the increased availability of extracellular Pi. Lentiviral gene transfer of Pit1 and Pit2 restored the changes observed in Pit1-KO and Pit2-KO clones, respectively. The expressions of P2Y2 and P2X7 which encode receptors for extracellular ATP were altered in the Pit1-KO and Pit2-KO clones, suggesting an influence on purinergic signaling. In mineralized cells after long-term culture, intracellular levels of PPi and ATP were higher in the Pit1-KO and Pit2-KO clones. Taken together, ablation of Pit1 or Pit2 in this osteoblastic cell model led to accelerated mineralization, suppressed TNSALP and altered the levels of extracellular and intracellular PPi and ATP, which might be partly mediated by changes in the availability of extracellular Pi.
