High-fat and high-glucose microenvironment decreases Runx2 and TAZ expression and inhibits bone regeneration in the mouse.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hyperlipidemia are negatively related to bone regeneration. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of high-fat and high-glucose microenvironment on bone regeneration and to detect the expression of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding domain (TAZ) during this process. METHODS:After establishing a high-fat and high-glucose mouse model, a 1?mm?×?1.5?mm bone defect was developed in the mandible. On days 7, 14, and 28 after operation, bone regeneration was evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin staining, Masson staining, TRAP staining, and immunohistochemistry, while Runx2 and TAZ expression were detected by immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR, and Western blot analysis. RESULTS:Our results showed that the inhibition of bone regeneration in high-fat and high-glucose group was the highest among the four groups. In addition, the expression of Runx2 in high-fat, high-glucose, and high-fat and high-glucose groups was weaker than that in the control group, but the expression of TAZ only showed a decreasing trend in the high-fat and high-glucose group during bone regeneration. CONCLUSIONS:In conclusion, these results suggest that high-fat and high-glucose microenvironment inhibits bone regeneration, which may be related to the inhibition of Runx2 and TAZ expression.

Project description:ObjectiveDiet structure has changed greatly over the last few decades, and high-calorie diets have become an integral part of people's daily diet, as well as the important cause of obesity in society. Several organ systems, including the skeletal system, are seriously affected by high-fat-diets (HFD) in the world. There is, however, still a lack of knowledge about the effects of HFD on bone regeneration and the possible mechanisms involved. In this study, the difference in bone regeneration between rats under HFD and low-fat-diets (LFD) was evaluated by monitoring the process of bone regeneration in distraction osteogenesis (DO) model animals, as well as the possible mechanisms.MethodsA total of 40 Sprague Dawley (SD) rats (5 weeks old) were randomly divided into HFD group (n=20) and LFD group (n=20). Except for feeding methods, there were no differences between the two groups in terms of treatment conditions. All animals received the DO surgery eight weeks after starting to feed. After a delay of 5 days (latency phase), the active lengthening phase was performed for 10 days (0.25 mm/12 h), and the consolidation phase followed for 42 days. An observational study of bone included radioscopy (once a week), micro-computed tomography (CT), general morphology, biomechanics, histomorphometry, and immunohistochemistry.ResultThe results showed that HFD group had a higher body weight than LFD group after 8, 14, and 16 weeks of feeding. Furthermore, at the final observation, there were statistically significant differences between LFD group and HFD group in terms of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. Additionally, observations on bone regeneration showed a slower regeneration and a lower biomechanical strength in HFD group than LFD group, based on radiography, micro-CT, general morphology, biomechanics, histomorphometry, and immunohistochemistry.ConclusionIn this study, HFD resulted in elevated blood lipids, increased adipose differentiation at the bone marrow level, and delayed bone regeneration. The pieces of evidence are beneficial to better understand the association between diet and bone regeneration and to adjust the diet optimally for fracture patients.

Project description:Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell malignancy that thrives in the bone marrow (BM), with frequent progression to new local and distant bone sites. Our previous studies demonstrated that multiple myeloma cells at primary sites secrete soluble factors and suppress osteoblastogenesis via the inhibition of Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) in pre- and immature osteoblasts (OB) in new bone sites, prior to the arrival of metastatic tumor cells. However, it is unknown whether OB-Runx2 suppression in new bone sites feeds back to promote multiple myeloma dissemination to and progression in these areas. Hence, we developed a syngeneic mouse model of multiple myeloma in which Runx2 is specifically deleted in the immature OBs of C57BL6/KaLwRij mice (OB-Runx2-/- mice) to study the effect of OB-Runx2 deficiency on multiple myeloma progression in new bone sites. In vivo studies with this model demonstrated that OB-Runx2 deficiency attracts multiple myeloma cells and promotes multiple myeloma tumor growth in bone. Mechanistic studies further revealed that OB-Runx2 deficiency induces an immunosuppressive microenvironment in BM that is marked by an increase in the concentration and activation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) and the suppression and exhaustion of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. In contrast, MDSC depletion by either gemcitabine or 5-fluorouracil treatment in OB-Runx2-/- mice prevented these effects and inhibited multiple myeloma tumor growth in BM. These novel discoveries demonstrate that OB-Runx2 deficiency in new bone sites promotes multiple myeloma dissemination and progression by increasing metastatic cytokines and MDSCs in BM and inhibiting BM immunity. Importantly, MDSC depletion can block multiple myeloma progression promoted by OB-Runx2 deficiency.Significance: This study demonstrates that Runx2 deficiency in immature osteoblasts at distant bone sites attracts myeloma cells and allows myeloma progression in new bone sites via OB-secreted metastatic cytokines and MDSC-mediated suppression of bone marrow immunity.

Project description:High-protein diets are known to reduce adiposity in the context of high carbohydrate and Western diets. However, few studies have investigated the specific high-protein effect on lipogenesis induced by a high-sucrose (HS) diet or fat deposition induced by high-fat feeding. We aimed to determine the effects of high protein intake on the development of fat deposition and partitioning in response to high-fat and/or HS feeding. A total of thirty adult male Wistar rats were assigned to one of the six dietary regimens with low and high protein, sucrose and fat contents for 5 weeks. Body weight (BW) and food intake were measured weekly. Oral glucose tolerance tests and meal tolerance tests were performed after 4th and 5th weeks of the regimen, respectively. At the end of the study, the rats were killed 2 h after ingestion of a calibrated meal. Blood, tissues and organs were collected for analysis of circulating metabolites and hormones, body composition and mRNA expression in the liver and adipose tissues. No changes were observed in cumulative energy intake and BW gain after 5 weeks of dietary treatment. However, high-protein diets reduced by 20 % the adiposity gain induced by HS and high-sucrose high-fat (HS-HF) diets. Gene expression and transcriptomic analysis suggested that high protein intake reduced liver capacity for lipogenesis by reducing mRNA expressions of fatty acid synthase (fasn), acetyl-CoA carboxylase a and b (Acaca and Acacb) and sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 1c (Srebf-1c). Moreover, ketogenesis, as indicated by plasma β-hydroxybutyrate levels, was higher in HS-HF-fed mice that were also fed high protein levels. Taken together, these results suggest that high-protein diets may reduce adiposity by inhibiting lipogenesis and stimulating ketogenesis in the liver. Adult male Wistar rats were fed diets with varying amounts of protein, carbohydrates and fat for 5 weeks. At the end of the experiment, rats were killed and tanscriptome analysis was performed on pooled liver samples.

Project description:BackgroundMesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known to have different differentiation potential depending on the tissue of origin. Dedifferentiated fat cells (DFATs) are MSC-like multipotent cells that can be prepared from mature adipocytes by ceiling culture method. It is still unknown whether DFATs derived from adipocytes in different tissue showed different phenotype and functional properties. In the present study, we prepared bone marrow (BM)-derived DFATs (BM-DFATs), BM-MSCs, subcutaneous (SC) adipose tissue-derived DFATs (SC-DFATs), and adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs) from donor-matched tissue samples. Then, we compared their phenotypes and multilineage differentiation potential in vitro. We also evaluated in vivo bone regeneration ability of these cells using a mouse femoral fracture model.MethodsBM-DFATs, SC-DFATs, BM-MSCs, and ASCs were prepared from tissue samples of knee osteoarthritis patients who received total knee arthroplasty. Cell surface antigens, gene expression profile, and in vitro differentiation capacity of these cells were determined. In vivo bone regenerative ability of these cells was evaluated by micro-computed tomography imaging at 28 days after local injection of the cells with peptide hydrogel (PHG) in the femoral fracture model in severe combined immunodeficiency mice.ResultsBM-DFATs were successfully generated at similar efficiency as SC-DFATs. Cell surface antigen and gene expression profiles of BM-DFATs were similar to those of BM-MSCs, whereas these profiles of SC-DFATs were similar to those of ASCs. In vitro differentiation analysis revealed that BM-DFATs and BM-MSCs had higher differentiation tendency toward osteoblasts and lower differentiation tendency toward adipocytes compared to SC-DFATs and ASCs. Transplantation of BM-DFATs and BM-MSCs with PHG enhanced bone mineral density at the injection sites compared to PHG alone in the mouse femoral fracture model.ConclusionsWe showed that phenotypic characteristics of BM-DFATs were similar to those of BM-MSCs. BM-DFATs exhibited higher osteogenic differentiation potential and bone regenerative ability compared to SC-DFATs and ASCs. These results suggest that BM-DFATs may be suitable sources of cell-based therapies for patients with nonunion bone fracture.
