Collagen Promotes Higher Adhesion, Survival and Proliferation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

ABSTRACT: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) can differentiate into several cell types and are desirable candidates for cell therapy and tissue engineering. However, due to poor cell survival, proliferation and differentiation in the patient, the therapy outcomes have not been satisfactory. Although several studies have been done to understand the conditions that promote proliferation, differentiation and migration of MSC in vitro and in vivo, still there is no clear understanding on the effect of non-cellular bio molecules. Of the many factors that influence the cell behavior, the immediate cell microenvironment plays a major role. In this context, we studied the effect of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins in controlling cell survival, proliferation, migration and directed MSC differentiation. We found that collagen promoted cell proliferation, cell survival under stress and promoted high cell adhesion to the cell culture surface. Increased osteogenic differentiation accompanied by high active RHOA (Ras homology gene family member A) levels was exhibited by MSC cultured on collagen. In conclusion, our study shows that collagen will be a suitable matrix for large scale production of MSC with high survival rate and to obtain high osteogenic differentiation for therapy.

Project description:BackgroundCollagen is one of the most commonly used natural biomaterials for tendon tissue engineering. One of the possible practical ways to further enhance tendon repair is to combine a porous collagen sponge scaffold with a suitable growth factor or cytokine that has an inherent ability to promote the recruitment, proliferation, and tenogenic differentiation of cells. However, there is an incomplete understanding of which growth factors are sufficient and optimal for the tenogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in a collagen sponge-based 3D culture system.AimTo identify one or more ideal growth factors that benefit the proliferation and tenogenic differentiation of rat BMSCs in a porous collagen sponge scaffold.MethodsWe constructed a 3D culture system based on a type I collagen sponge scaffold. The surface topography of the collagen sponge scaffold was observed by scanning electron microscopy. Primary BMSCs were isolated from Sprague-Dawley rats. Cell survival on the surfaces of the scaffolds with different growth factors was assessed by live/dead assay and CCK-8 assay. The mRNA and protein expression levels were confirmed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot, respectively. The deposited collagen was assessed by Sirius Red staining.ResultsTransforming growth factor ?1 (TGF-?1) showed great promise in the tenogenic differentiation of BMSCs compared to growth differentiation factor 7 (GDF-7) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in both the 2D and 3D cultures, and the 3D culture enhanced the differentiation of BMSCs into tenocytes well beyond the level of induction in the 2D culture after TGF-?1 treatment. In the 2D culture, the proliferation of the BMSCs showed no significant changes compared to the control group after TGF-?1, IGF-1, or GDF-7 treatment. However, TGF-?1 and GDF-7 could increase the cell proliferation in the 3D culture. Strangely, we also found more dead cells in the BMSC-collagen sponge constructs that were treated with TGF-?1. Moreover, TGF-?1 promoted more collagen deposition in both the 2D and 3D cultures.ConclusionCollagen sponge-based 3D culture with TGF-?1 enhances the responsiveness of the proliferation and tenogenic differentiation of rat BMSCs.
