Transcriptome and secretome analysis of mechanically stretched osteocytic cells reveals activation of signalling pathways implicated in bone regeneration and DNA-repair systems

ABSTRACT: Osteocytes are secretory bone cells that can play an important role in regenerative rehabilitation through their secretome. Making use of RNA-seq and bioinformatics we examined the transcriptome of mouse and human osteocytic bone cells cultured under cyclic tension delivered by a computer-controlled bioreactor. We discovered that a single bout of tensile stretch is enough to activate signalling pathways or processes implicated in bone tissue regeneration, and DNA-repair systems which are relevant to cancer. This results are valuable to the scientific community by allowing to inform future exercise-based regenerative rehabilitation protocols targeting musculoskeletal disorders or cancer.

Transcriptome and secretome analysis of mechanically stretched osteocytic cells reveals activation of signalling pathways implicated in bone regeneration and DNA-repair systems

Project description:Prescribed exercise has the potential to ameliorate tissue repair or regeneration and therefore is gaining increasing importance in regenerative rehabilitation. Osteocytes are an appealing type of bone cell to target by regenerative rehabilitation protocols due to their mechanosensitive and secretory nature. Making use of tandem liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MSMS) as well as curated bioinformatics, we examined the secretome of mouse and human osteocytic bone cells cultured under cyclic tension delivered by a computer-controlled bioreactor. Quantitative SWATH MS analysis of the secretome secreted by mechanically stimulated cells revealed differential expression of 13 out of 759 secreted factors in mouse and 16 out of 276 in human osteocytic cells. GO enrichment analysis suggested that response to oxidative stress was the most predominant biological process in mouse and cholesterol or lipoprotein-related in human cells. Ossification and bone remodelling and manganese transport were 2 overrepresented process networks common to both mouse and human osteocytic cells

Mechanical loading influences osteocytes and further regulates osteoblast metabolism and osteogenic differentiation(miRNA Array)

Project description:A previous study indicated that mechanical tensile strain of 2500 microstrain (με) at 0.5 Hz for 8 h promoted osteogenesis and corresponding mechanoresponsive microRNAs (miRs) were identified in osteoblasts. However, in osteocytes, it has not been identified which miRs respond to the mechanical strain, and it is not fully understood how the mechanoresponsive miRs regulate osteoblast differentiation. Mouse MLO-Y4 osteocytes were applied to the same mechanical tensile strain in vitro.MiR microarray and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chainreaction(RT-qPCR) assays were applied to select and validate differentially expressed miRs, and the target genes of these miRs were then predicted. In addition, the differentially expressed miRNAs in mechanically strained osteocytes in vitro were compared with those in treadmill exercise of the bone tissues .

MDA-MB-231/1833 bone-metastatic breast cancer cell gene expression after conditioning in conditioned medium from HUVECs conditioned in conditioned medium from static and flow-stimulated MLO-Y4 osteocytes

Project description:Bone metastases is a common severe complication for breast cancer. We previously showed that conditioned medium (CM) from osteocytes stimulated with oscillatory fluid flow, mimicking bone mechanical loading during routine physical activities, reduced breast cancer cell extravasation across endothelial monolayers. Endothelial cells are situated at an ideal location to mediate signals between osteocytes in the bone matrix and metastasizing cancer cells in the blood vessels. Therefore, we used RNA sequencing to show that CM from endothelial cells conditioned in CM from flow-stimulated osteocytes significantly altered gene expression in bone-metastatic breast cancer cells. This This provides insights into the capability of bone-loading activity in preventing bone metastases.

High thermopower of mechanically stretched single-molecule junctions.

Project description:Metal-molecule-metal junction is a promising candidate for thermoelectric applications that utilizes quantum confinement effects in the chemically defined zero-dimensional atomic structure to achieve enhanced dimensionless figure of merit ZT. A key issue in this new class of thermoelectric nanomaterials is to clarify the sensitivity of thermoelectricity on the molecular junction configurations. Here we report simultaneous measurements of the thermoelectric voltage and conductance on Au-1,4-benzenedithiol (BDT)-Au junctions mechanically-stretched in-situ at sub-nanoscale. We obtained the average single-molecule conductance and thermopower of 0.01 G0 and 15??V/K, respectively, suggesting charge transport through the highest occupied molecular orbital. Meanwhile, we found the single-molecule thermoelectric transport properties extremely-sensitive to the BDT bridge configurations, whereby manifesting the importance to design the electrode-molecule contact motifs for optimizing the thermoelectric performance of molecular junctions.

Graham2013 - Role of osteocytes in targeted bone remodeling

Project description:Jason M. Graham, Bruce P. Ayati, Sarah A. Holstein & James A. Martin. The role of osteocytes in targeted bone remodeling: a mathematical model. PLoS ONE 8, 5 (2013). Until recently many studies of bone remodeling at the cellular level have focused on the behavior of mature osteoblasts and osteoclasts, and their respective precursor cells, with the role of osteocytes and bone lining cells left largely unexplored. This is particularly true with respect to the mathematical modeling of bone remodeling. However, there is increasing evidence that osteocytes play important roles in the cycle of targeted bone remodeling, in serving as a significant source of RANKL to support osteoclastogenesis, and in secreting the bone formation inhibitor sclerostin. Moreover, there is also increasing interest in sclerostin, an osteocyte-secreted bone formation inhibitor, and its role in regulating local response to changes in the bone microenvironment. Here we develop a cell population model of bone remodeling that includes the role of osteocytes, sclerostin, and allows for the possibility of RANKL expression by osteocyte cell populations. We have aimed to give a simple, yet still tractable, model that remains faithful to the underlying system based on the known literature. This model extends and complements many of the existing mathematical models for bone remodeling, but can be used to explore aspects of the process of bone remodeling that were previously beyond the scope of prior modeling work. Through numerical simulations we demonstrate that our model can be used to explore theoretically many of the qualitative features of the role of osteocytes in bone biology as presented in recent literature.

Genetic and monoclonal antibody blockade of GDF8 enhances musculoskeletal recovery and mitigates posttraumatic osteoarthritis following ligament injury [quadricep]

Project description:Background: Musculoskeletal disorders contribute to a substantial proportion of disability among people worldwide. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are among the most frequent knee injuries, and a majority of patients will go on to develop knee osteoarthritis within 10 years. Traditional rehabilitation following injury has limited success restoring muscle strength and mitigating the onset of posttraumatic knee osteoarthritis. Growth differentiation factor 8 (GDF8), or myostatin, is a myokine that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of musculoskeletal degeneration following ACL injury. This study investigated GDF8 levels in injured human skeletal muscle and serum and compared the efficacy of a humanized monoclonal GDF8 antibody against a placebo in a mouse model of injury-induced osteoarthritis (surgically induced ACL tear). Muscle GDF8 peaks rapidly following ACL injury, and early induction of GDF8 in skeletal muscle was predictive of atrophy, weakness and periarticular bone loss in patients six months following surgical ACL reconstruction. GDF8 antibody administration at the time of injury substantially reduced muscle atrophy, weakness and fibrosis in the mouse ACL injury model. GDF8 antibody treatment rescued the skeletal muscle and articular cartilage transcriptomic response to ACL injury and attenuated the severity of injury-induced knee osteoarthritis. Subcutaneous treatment with GDF8 antibody also diminished loss of periarticular bone microarchitecture. Genetic deletion of GDF8 neutralized musculoskeletal deficits in response to ACL injury. Our findings support an opportunity for rapid targeting of GDF8 to enhance functional musculoskeletal injury recovery and mitigate the development posttraumatic knee osteoarthritis, which could substantially reduce the disability burden associated with this injury.

Osteocytes are not able to eliminate intracellular S. aureus and serves as a main reservoir for osteomyelitis

Project description:The main reservoir for Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis is the bone tissue where this pathogen can persist and form small colony variants for long periods within osteoblasts and osteocytes. Recently the osteocytes were described as a main reservoir for this pathogen in bone tissue. However, the mechanisms involved in the persistence of S. aureus within these cells are still unknown. Here we investigated the intrinsic relation between S. aureus and both bone cells during infection. The infection of osteoblasts and osteocytes by this pathogen generates the functional bifurcation of these cells into two different responders. Whereas osteoblasts are able to induce a strong antimicrobial respond, the osteocytes trigger signals to recruit immune cells and enhance the inflammation. Moreover, we found that extracellular signals from osteocytes enhance the intracellular bacterial clearance on osteoblasts but not on osteocytes. Even that both cells contain TLR2, the main toll receptor responsible of S. aureus recognition, only osteoblasts were able to increase its expression after infection. Although the expression of TLR2 was not altered in osteocytes, these cells secrete higher lipid mediators and cytokines than osteoblasts. In addition, we found by proteomic analysis that the reduced intracellular bacterial killing of osteocytes is related to a low expression of antimicrobial peptides and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in these cells. Our results suggest that osteocytes contribute to the high inflammation observed in osteomyelitis and at the same time, provide the main niche for S. aureus persistence due to their poor intracellular antimicrobial response. Collectively, these findings reveal the roles of bone cells upon S. aureus infection and provide new insight on the treatment failure of osteomyelitis.

Acquisition of a unique mesenchymal precursor-like blastema state underlies successful adult mammalian digit tip regeneration

Project description:Here, we investigate the origin and nature of blastema cells that regenerate the adult murine digit tip. We show that Pdgfra-expressing mesenchymal cells in uninjured digits establish the regenerative blastema and are essential for regeneration. Single cell profiling shows that the mesenchymal blastema cells are distinct from both uninjured digit and embryonic limb/digit Pdgfra-positive cells. This unique blastema state is environmentally determined; dermal fibroblasts transplanted into the regenerative, but not non-regenerative, digit express blastema markers and contribute to bone regeneration. Moreover, lineage tracing with single cell profiling indicates that endogenous osteoblasts/osteocytes acquire a blastema mesenchymal transcriptional state and contribute to both dermis and bone regeneration. Thus, mammalian digit tip regeneration occurs via a distinct adult mechanism where the regenerative environment promotes acquisition of a unique blastema state that allows cells from tissues like bone to contribute to regeneration of other mesenchymal tissues such as the dermis.
