Effect of Lactoferrin on the Expression Profiles of Long Non-coding RNA during Osteogenic Differentiation of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

ABSTRACT: Lactoferrin (LF) has demonstrated stimulation of osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) participate in regulating the osteogenic differentiation processes. However, the impact of LF on lncRNA expression in MSC osteogenic differentiation is poorly understood. Our aim was to investigate the effects of LF on lncRNAs expression profiles, during osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs), by RNA sequencing. A total number of 1331 putative lncRNAs were identified in rBMSCs during osteogenic differentiation in the study. LF influenced the expression of 120 lncRNAs (differentially expressed lncRNAs [DELs], Fold change > 1.5 or < -1.5; p < 0.05) in rBMSCs on day 14 of osteogenic differentiation, consisted of 60 upregulated and 60 down-regulated. Furthermore, the potential functions of DELs were of prediction by searching their target cis- and trans-regulated protein-coding genes. The bioinformatic analysis of DELs target gene revealed that LF led to the disfunction of transforming growth factor beta stimulus (TGF-?) and positive regulation of I-?appa B kinase/NF-?appa B signaling pathway, which may relate to osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs. Our work is the first profiling of lncRNA in osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs induced by LF, and provides valuable insights into the potential mechanisms for LF promoting osteogenic activity.

Project description:Long non?coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a specific group of RNA molecules that do not encode proteins. They have been shown to serve important regulatory functions in various biological and cell differentiation processes. However, the potential functions and regulatory mechanisms of lncRNAs that are associated with the osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) remain to be elucidated. The present study aimed to investigate lncRNAs that are differentially expressed during the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs, along with the potential functions of those lncRNAs. To this end, three groups of hBMSCs were stimulated to undergo osteogenic differentiation for 7 days. Known lncRNAs, unknown lncRNAs and mRNAs that demonstrated differential expression prior to and following the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs were screened using lncRNA high?throughput sequencing. In addition, 12 lncRNAs were selected for reverse transcription?quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT?qPCR) validation of the accuracy of the sequencing results. The potential functions and possible targets of the differentially expressed lncRNAs were analyzed using bioinformatics technologies (gene ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and gene co?expression network analysis). In total, 64 lncRNAs were differentially expressed by at least two?fold in hBMSCs prior to and following osteogenic differentiation; these included seven known lncRNAs (two upregulated and five downregulated lncRNAs) and 57 unknown lncRNAs (35 upregulated and 22 downregulated lncRNAs). In addition, 409 mRNAs (257 upregulated and 152 downregulated mRNAs) were differentially expressed by at least two?fold. The RT?qPCR results obtained for 12 selected differentially expressed lncRNAs were consistent with the sequencing results. The gene co?expression network analysis of lncRNAs and mRNAs demonstrated that four lncRNAs (ENSG00000238042, lnc_1269, lnc_1369 and lnc_1708) may serve important roles in the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs. In conclusion, during the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs, the lncRNA expression profile changed significantly; certain of the observed differentially expressed lncRNAs may be derived from protein?coding genes and may serve important roles in osteogenic differentiation.

Project description:Silica nonwoven fabrics (SNFs) with enough mechanical strength are candidates as implantable scaffolds. Culture of cells therein is expected to affect the proliferation and differentiation of the cells through cell-cell and cell-SNF interactions. In this study, we examined three-dimensional (3D) SNFs as a scaffold of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for bone tissue engineering applications. The interconnected highly porous microstructure of 3D SNFs is expected to allow omnidirectional cell-cell interactions, and the morphological similarity of a silica nanofiber to that of a fibrous extracellular matrix can contribute to the promotion of cell functions. 3D SNFs were prepared by the sol-gel process, and their mechanical properties were characterized by the compression test and rheological analysis. In the compression test, SNFs showed a compressive elastic modulus of over 1 MPa and a compressive strength of about 200 kPa. These values are higher than those of porous polystyrene disks used for in vitro 3D cell culture. In rheological analysis, the elastic modulus and fracture stress were 3.27 ± 0.54 kPa and 25.9 ± 8.3 Pa, respectively. Then, human bone marrow-derived MSCs were cultured on SNFs, and the effects on proliferation and osteogenic differentiation were evaluated. The MSCs seeded on SNF proliferated, and the thickness of the cell layer became over 80 μm after 14 days of culture. The osteogenic differentiation of MSCs on SNFs was induced by the culture in the commercial osteogenic differentiation medium. The alkaline phosphatase activity of MSCs on SNFs increased rapidly and remained high up to 14 days and was much higher than that on two-dimensional tissue culture-treated polystyrene. The high expression of RUNX2 and intense staining by alizarin red s after differentiation supported that SNFs enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs. Furthermore, permeation analysis of SNFs using fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran suggested a sufficient permeability of SNFs for oxygen, minerals, nutrients, and secretions, which is important for maintaining the cell viability and vitality. These results suggested that SNFs are promising scaffolds for the regeneration of bone defects using MSCs, originated from highly porous and elastic SNF characters.
