Radiation Induces Apoptosis and Osteogenic Impairment through miR-22-Mediated Intracellular Oxidative Stress in Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

ABSTRACT: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were characterized by their multilineage potential and were involved in both bony and soft tissue repair. Exposure of cells to ionizing radiation (IR) triggers numerous biological reactions, including reactive oxygen species (ROS), cellular apoptosis, and impaired differentiation capacity, while the mechanisms of IR-induced BMSC apoptosis and osteogenic impairment are still unclear. Through a recent study, we found that 6?Gy IR significantly increased the apoptotic ratio and ROS generation, characterized by ROS staining and mean fluorescent intensity. Intervention with antioxidant (NAC) indicated that IR-induced cellular apoptosis was partly due to the accumulation of intracellular ROS. Furthermore, we found that the upregulation of miR-22 in rBMSCs following 6?Gy IR played an important role on the ROS generation and subsequent apoptosis. In addition, we firstly demonstrated that miR-22-mediated ROS accumulation and cell injury had an important regulated role on the osteogenic capacity of BMSCs both in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, IR-induced overexpression of miR-22 regulated the cell viability and differentiation potential through targeting the intracellular ROS.

Project description:Postmenopausal osteoporosis (OP) is one of the most common bone diseases that affects millions of aging women. Reduced osteogenesis and increased oxidative stress have been implicated in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) derived from OP patients. Melatonin has shown positive effects on osteoblast differentiation and bone formation; however, it was unknown whether melatonin could restore OP-impaired osteogenic potential of BMMSCs and what the underlying mechanisms entailed. The objective of this study is to investigate (1) whether melatonin can restore the impaired osteogenic potential of OP BMMSCs by preserving their antioxidant functions, and if so, (2) whether intravenous administration of melatonin can prevent OP-induced bone loss in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. Ovariectomies were performed in female rats and BMMSCs were isolated from the osteoporotic rats 3 months later. In vitro treatment with melatonin successfully improved the osteogenic differentiation of OP BMMSCs, as evidenced by increased levels of matrix mineralization and osteoblast-specific genes. In melatonin-treated OP BMMSCs, intracellular oxidative stress was significantly attenuated, while levels of intracellular antioxidant enzymes were noticeably up-regulated - particularly superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) and glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1). Silent information regulator type 1 (SIRT1) was involved in the melatonin-mediated recovery of osteogenesis and antioxidant functions. Meanwhile, in vivo injections of melatonin via the tail vein successfully ameliorated the bone micro-architecture in ovariectomized rat femurs. Further experiments confirmed that BMMSCs derived from melatonin-treated OVX rats exerted well-preserved antioxidant properties and osteogenic potential. Our findings demonstrate that the administration of melatonin is a promising strategy for treating patients with postmenopausal OP by preserving the antioxidant properties and osteogenic potential of their BMMSCs.
