Enhanced adipogenicity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in aplastic anemia.

ABSTRACT: Fatty bone marrow (BM) and defective hematopoiesis are a pathologic hallmark of aplastic anemia (AA). We have investigated adipogenic and osteogenic potential of BM mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) in 10 AA patients (08 males and 02 females) with median age of 37 years (range: 06 to 79 years) and in the same number of age and sex matched controls. It was observed that BM-MSC of AA patients had a morphology, phenotype, and osteogenic differentiation potential similar to control subjects but adipocytes differentiated from AA BM-MSC had a higher density and larger size of lipid droplets and they expressed significantly higher levels of adiponectin and FABP4 genes and proteins as compared to control BM-MSC (P < 0.01 for both). Thus our data shows that AA BM-MSC have enhanced adipogenicity, which may have an important implication in the pathogenesis of the disease.

Project description:BackgroundAcquired aplastic anemia (AA) is characterized by deficiency or dysfunction of the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment. However, little is known about the impairment of BM-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in AA patients.MethodsWe used Illumina HiSeqTM 2000 sequencing, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), flow cytometry (FCM), and Western blotting to test the expression of CD106 gene (vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1)) and CD106 protein of BM-MSCs. Furthermore, we used hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and histochemical staining analysis, immunofluorescence, and the formation of capillary-like structures to analyze capillary tube-like formation in vitro; we also used the Matrigel plug assay to test in vivo vasculogenesis, and an assay of colony forming units (CFUs) and colony-forming unit-megakaryocyte (CFU-MK) to detect the support function of MSCs in vitro. The in vivo engraftment of CD34+ cells and MSCs in NOD/SCID mice was tested by FACS and survival assay; the expression of NF-?B was tested by NanoPro analysis and immunofluorescence. NF-?B-regulated CD106 gene (VCAM1) was confirmed by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?)-stimulated and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated MSCs, blockade assay, and immunofluorescence.ResultsHere, we report that BM-MSCs from AA patients exhibited downregulation of the CD06 gene (VCAM1) and low expression of CD106 in vitro. Further analysis revealed that CD106+ MSCs from both AA patients and healthy controls had increased potential for in vitro capillary tube-like formation and in vivo vasculogenesis compared with CD106- MSCs, and the results were similar when healthy MSCs were compared with AA MSCs. CD106+ MSCs from both AA patients and healthy controls more strongly supported in vitro growth and in vivo engraftment of CD34+ cells in NOD/SCID mice than CD106- MSCs, and similar results were obtained when healthy MSCs and AA MSCs were compared. The expression of NF-?B was decreased in AA MSCs, and NF-?B regulated the CD106 gene (VCAM1) which supported hematopoiesis.ConclusionsThese results revealed the effect of CD106 and NF-?B in BM failure of AA.
