Gene expression microrarray of MSC grown on bone inducing scaffolds

ABSTRACT: Mesenchymal Stem Cells have been seeded on calcium based biomaterials. Gene expression is evaluated at day 0 (unseeded cells), day 5, and day 10, in order to study differential expressions at different time points and infer if biomaterial induced gene expression variation able to differentiate stem cells towards the osteoblasts lineage.

The culture of progenitor mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) onto osteoconductive materials to induce a proper osteogenic differentiation and mineralized matrix regeneration represents a promising and widely diffused experimental approach for tissue-engineering (TE) applications in orthopaedics. Among modern biomaterials, calcium phosphates represent the best bone substitutes, due to their chemical features emulating the mineral phase of bone tissue. Although many studies on stem cells differentiation ...[more]

Project description:Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) display a high potential for the development of novel treatment strategies for cartilage repair. However, the pathways involved in their differentiation to functional and non hypertrophic chondrocytes remain largely unknown, despite the work on embryologic development and the identification of key growth factors including members of the TGFbeta, Hh, Wnt and FGF families. In this study, we asked if we could identify specific biological networks independently from the growth factor used (TGFbeta-3 or BMP-2). To address this question, we used DNA microarrays and performed large-scale expression profiling of MSC at different time points during their chondral differentiation. By comparing these data with those obtained during their differentiation into osteoblasts and adipocytes, we identified 318 genes specific for chondrogenesis. We distributed the selected genes in 5 classes according to their kinetic of expression and used the Ingenuity software in order to identify new biological networks. We could reconstruct 3 phases for chondral differentiation, characterized by functional pathways. The first phase corresponds to cell attachment and apoptosis prevention with the up-regulation of √é¬±5 integrins, BCL6, NFIL3, RGS2 and down-regulation of CTGF and CYR61. The second phase is characterized by a proliferation/differentiation step with the continuous expression of MAF, PGF, HGMA1 or NOTCH3, CHI3L1, WNT5A, LEPR. Finally, the last step of differentiation/hypertrophy is characterized by expression of DKK1, APOD/E, SERPINF1 and TIMP4. These data propose new pathways to understand the complexity of MSC differentiation to chondrocytes and new potential targets for cell therapy applied to cartilage repair. Experiment Overall Design: To identify genes involved in TGFbeta03/BMP2-induced chondrogenesis, MSC were isolated from human bone marrow aspirates by adherence to culture dishes and cultivated to passage 3. After induction of chondrogenic differentiation with BMP2 or TGFbeta-3, gene expression was determined by microarray hybridization after 1, 3, 7 and 21 days and compared to the undifferentiated MSC.

Project description:Fetal cartilage fully regenerates following injury while in adult mammals cartilage injury leads to osteoarthritis (OA). OA is characterized by cartilage breakdown and joint inflammation and associated with significant pain and socioeconomic costs. As no clinically satisfactory treatment is available to date, disease-modifying therapies aimed to achieve cartilage regeneration are urgently required. The inherent regeneration potential of fetal individuals may hold answers to this unmet need. Therefore, to characterize the differences in fetal and adult response to cartilage injury, we carried out histology and comprehensive proteome analyses on fetal (day 80/150-day gestation) and adult cartilage samples one (fetal samples) and three (adult and fetal samples) days after surgical induction of a full-thickness cartilage lesion. In addition, proteins secreted by inflamed fetal MSCs in vitro were compared with the in vivo response to injury to evaluate their therapeutic potential. Histology of synovial samples revealed the presence of neutrophils one day post injury (p.i.) and an influx of macrophages into the subsynovial tissue on day 3 p.i. in fetal samples. In contrast, adult synovial samples showed invasion of neutrophils on day 3 p.i. Activation and migration of Iba1+- macrophages of the synovial lining was observed both in fetal and adult animals. Comparative mass spectrometry revealed 57 proteins significantly up-regulated (> 2FC, FDR<0.05), and 67 proteins significantly down-regulated (<-2 FC) upon injury in adults. Neutrophil-related proteins and acute phase proteins were the two major upregulated protein groups in adult cartilage following injury compared to fetal sheep. In contrast, several immunomodulating proteins and growth factors were significantly higher expressed in the fetus than the adult. Comparison of the in vitro MSCs with the in vivo fetal proteome revealed shared upregulation of 17 proteins, which were considered to be of potential therapeutic interest. The results of this study support our molecular understanding of successful fetal cartilage healing and new therapeutic strategies to induce regeneration in adult articular cartilage by modulating the inflammatory environment. The shared protein upregulation in fetal cartilage in vivo and in fetal MSCS during in vitro inflammation supports the possible therapeutic potential of these factors in specific and fetal MSCs in general.
