Comparative miRNA-Based Fingerprinting Reveals Biological Differences in Human Olfactory Mucosa- and Bone-Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells.

ABSTRACT: Previously we reported that nestin-positive human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from the olfactory mucosa (OM) enhanced CNS myelination in vitro to a greater extent than bone-marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs). miRNA-based fingerprinting revealed the two MSCs were 64% homologous, with 26 miRNAs differentially expressed. We focused on miR-146a-5p and miR-140-5p due to their reported role in the regulation of chemokine production and myelination. The lower expression of miR-140-5p in OM-MSCs correlated with higher secretion of CXCL12 compared with BM-MSCs. Addition of CXCL12 and its pharmacological inhibitors to neural co-cultures supported these data. Studies on related miR-146a-5p targets demonstrated that OM-MSCs had lower levels of Toll-like receptors and secreted less pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-6, IL-8, and CCL2. OM-MSCs polarized microglia to an anti-inflammatory phenotype, illustrating potential differences in their inflammatory response. Nestin-positive OM-MSCs could therefore offer a cell transplantation alternative for CNS repair, should these biological behaviors be translated in vivo.

Project description:Patients suffering from irresectable tracheal stenosis often face limited treatment options associated with low quality of life. To date, an optimal tracheal replacement strategy does not exist. A tissue-engineered tracheal substitute promises to overcome limitations such as implant vascularization, functional mucociliary clearance and mechanical stability. In order to advance a tracheal mucosa model recently developed by our group, we examined different supporting cell types in fibrin-based tri-culture with primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and primary human respiratory epithelial cells (HRE). Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSC), adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASC) and human nasal fibroblasts (HNF) were compared regarding their ability to promote mucociliary differentiation and vascularization in vitro. Three-dimensional co-cultures of the supporting cell types with either HRE or HUVEC were used as controls. Mucociliary differentiation and formation of vascular-like structures were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), periodic acid Schiff's reaction (PAS reaction), two-photon laser scanning microscopy (TPLSM) and immunohistochemistry. Cytokine levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), interleukin-6 (IL6), interleukin-8 (IL8), angiopoietin 1, angiopoietin 2, fibroblast growth factor basic (FGF-b) and placenta growth factor (PIGF) in media supernatant were investigated using LEGENDplex™ bead-based immunoassay. Epithelial morphology of tri-cultures with BM-MSC most closely resembled native respiratory epithelium with respect to ciliation, mucus production as well as expression and localization of epithelial cell markers pan-cytokeratin, claudin-1, α-tubulin and mucin5AC. This was followed by tri-cultures with HNF, while ASC-supported tri-cultures lacked mucociliary differentiation. For all supporting cell types, a reduced ciliation was observed in tri-cultures compared to the corresponding co-cultures. Although formation of vascular-like structures was confirmed in all cultures, vascular networks in BM-MSC-tri-cultures were found to be more branched and extended. Concentrations of pro-angiogenic and inflammatory cytokines, in particular VEGF and angiopoietin 2, revealed to be reduced in tri-cultures compared to co-cultures. With these results, our study provides an important step towards a vascularized and ciliated tissue-engineered tracheal replacement. Additionally, our tri-culture model may in the future contribute to an improved understanding of cell-cell interactions in diseases associated with impaired mucosal function.

Project description:BackgroundOsteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) (OMIM %259450) is a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders characterized by increased bone fragility, with clinical severity ranging from mild to lethal. The majority of OI cases are caused by mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2. Bruck Syndrome (BS) is a further recessively-inherited OI-like phenotype in which bone fragility is associated with the unusual finding of pterygia and contractures of the large joints. Notably, several studies have failed to show any abnormalities in the biosynthesis of collagen 1 in BS patientes. Evidence was obtained for a specific defect of the procollagen telopeptide lysine hydroxylation in BS, whereas mutations in the gene PLOD2 have been identified. Recently, several studies described FKBP10 mutations in OI-like and BS patients, suggesting that FKBP10 is a bonafide BS locus.MethodsWe analyzed the coding region and intron/exon boundaries of COL1A1, COL1A2, PLOD2 and FKBP10 genes by sequence analysis using an ABI PRISM 3130 automated sequencer and Big Dye Terminator Sequencing protocol. Mononuclear cells obtained from the bone marrow of BS, OI patients and healthy donors were cultured and osteogenic differentiation was induced. The gene expression of osteoblast specific markers were also evaluated during the osteoblastic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) by qRT-PCR using an ABI7500 Sequence Detection System.ResultsNo mutations in COL1A1, COL1A2 or PLOD2 were found in BS patient. We found a homozygous 1-base-pair duplication (c.831dupC) that is predicted to produce a translational frameshift mutation and a premature protein truncation 17 aminoacids downstream (p.Gly278ArgfsX95). The gene expression of osteoblast specific markers BGLAP, COL1A1, MSX2, SPARC and VDR was evaluated by Real Time RT-PCR during differentiation into osteoblasts and results showed similar patterns of osteoblast markers expression in BS and healthy controls. On the other hand, when compared with OI patients, the expression pattern of these genes was found to be different.ConclusionsOur work suggests that the gene expression profiles observed during mesenchymal stromal cell differentiation into osteoblast are distinct in BS patients as compared to OI patients. The present study shows for the first time that genes involved in osteogenesis are differentially expressed in BS and OI patients.
