Down-regulation of long non-coding RNA MEG3 suppresses osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) through miR-27a-3p/IGF1 axis in periodontitis.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:This study aimed to investigate the roles of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) in osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) in periodontitis. METHODS:Differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs between periodontitis periodontal ligament tissues and healthy periodontal ligament tissues were selected out using R project. PDLSCs were identified using flow cytometry. Western blot was employed to detect pathway relative proteins. Besides, targeted relationships between lncRNA and miRNA, as well as miRNA and mRNA were verified by dual luciferase reporter gene assay. Osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs was assessed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and Alizarin Red Staining (ARS). Markers for osteoblast (Runx2, Osterix, Osteocalcin, Colla1) were detected using western blot. RESULTS:LncRNA MEG3 and IGF1 were both down-regulated, while miR-27a-3p was up-regulated in periodontitis samples compared with healthy samples. Overexpression of MEG3 promoted osteogenic differentiation by enhancing expression of IGF1 yet suppressing expression of miRNA-27a-3p. Meanwhile, the results of ALP and ARS staining indicated that up-regulation of lncRNA MEG3 or IGF1 promoted osteogenic differentiation in PDLSCs, which could be reversed with up-regulation of miRNA-27a-3p. CONCLUSION:Down-regulation of MEG3 suppressed osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs through miR-27a-3p/IGF1 axis in periodontitis.

Project description:BackgroundAn increasing number of studies have shown that dysregulated miR-589-3p is associated with multiple diseases. However, the role of miR-589-3p in osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) remains unknown. This study aimed to explore the biological function and potential molecular mechanism of miR-589-3p in osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.MethodsGSE159508 was downloaded from Gene Expression Omibus (GEO, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/ ). Differentially expressed miRNAs between osteogenic induction PDLSCs versus non-induction PDLSCs were obtained by R software. miR-589-3p mimic and miR-589-3p inhibitor and corresponding negative control were obtained and to identify the role of miR-589-3p in osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. ALP staining and ARS were used to evaluate ALP activity and mineralization, respectively. The targeted binding relationship between miR-589-3p and ATF1 was predicted and verified by target prediction analysis and dual-luciferase assay. Furthermore, the functional mechanism based on miR-589-3p and ATF1 in osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs was further investigated through rescue experiments.ResultsAccording to the cut-off criteria with log 2 FC > 1.0 and P < 0.05, 514 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified between osteogenic induction and non-induction PDLSCs, including 309 upregulated miRNAs and 205 downregulated miRNAs. Compared with control PDLSCs, miR-589-3p expression level was notably increased in PDLSCs that underwent osteogenic induction. The overexpression of miR-589-3p promoted the cell viability of PDLSCs, while the low expression of miR-589-3p had the opposite effect. The dual luciferase reporter assay verified that ATF1 was proved to be a direct target of miR-589-3p in PDLSCs. And overexpressed miR-589-3p reduced the expression of ATF1. Overexpression of miR-589-3p enhanced the osteogenic capacity of PDLSCs, as demonstrated by increases in ALP activity, matrix mineralization, and RUNX2, OCN and OSX expression. In addition, the rescue experiments confirmed that overexpressed ATF1 restored the effects of overexpressed miR-589-3p on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.ConclusionmiR-589-3p could down-regulate the expression of ATF1, thereby promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. This finding may provide a new therapeutic target for molecular therapy of periodontitis.
