Effects of Helioxanthin Derivative-Treated Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells on Fracture Healing.

ABSTRACT: Bone defects affect patients functionally and psychologically and can decrease quality of life. To resolve these problems, a simple and efficient method of bone regeneration is required. Human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) have high proliferative ability and multilineage differentiation potential. In our previous study, we reported a highly efficient method to induce osteogenic differentiation using DPSC sheets treated with a helioxanthin derivative (4-(4-methoxyphenyl)pyrido[40,30:4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxamide (TH)) in a mouse calvarial defect model. However, the localization of the DPSCs after transplantation remains unknown. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the localization of transplanted DPSCs in a mouse fracture model. DPSCs were collected from six healthy patients aged 18-29 years, cultured in normal medium (NM), osteogenic medium (OM), or OM with TH, and fabricated them into cell sheets. To evaluate the efficacy of fracture healing using DPSCs treated with OM+TH, and to clarify the localization of the transplanted DPSC sheets in vivo, we transplanted OM+TH-treated DPSC sheets labeled with PKH26 into mouse tibiae fractures. We demonstrated that transplanted OM+TH-treated DPSCs sheets were localized to the fracture site and facilitated bone formation. These results indicated that transplanted OM+TH-treated DPSCs were localized at fracture sites and directly promoted fracture healing.

Project description:Objective: Indirect Jagged1 immobilization efficiently activates canonical Notch signaling in human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of the Jagged1-treated hDPSC-derived decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) and its biological activity on odonto/osteogenic differentiation of stem cells isolated from apical papilla (SCAPs). Methods: Bioinformatic database of Jagged1-treated hDPSCs was analyzed using NetworkAnalyst. hDPSCs seeded on the Jagged1 immobilized surface were maintained with normal or osteogenic induction medium (OM) followed by decellularization procedure, dECM-N, or dECM-OM, respectively. SCAPs were reseeded on each dECM with either the normal medium or the OM. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay. Characteristics of dECMs and SCAPs were evaluated by SEM, EDX, immunofluorescent staining, and alcian blue staining. Mineralization was assessed by alizarin red S, Von Kossa, and alkaline phosphatase staining. Statistical significance was considered at p < 0.05. Results: RNA-seq database revealed upregulation of several genes involved in ECM organization, ECM-receptor interaction, and focal adhesion in Jagged1-treated hDPSCs. Immobilized Jagged1 increased the osteogenesis of the hDPSC culture with OM. dECMs showed fibrillar-like network structure and maintained major ECM proteins, fibronectin, type I-collagen, and glycosaminoglycans. A decrease in calcium and phosphate components was observed in dECMs after the decellularized process. Cell viability on dECMs did not alter by 7 days. Cell attachment and f-actin cytoskeletal organization of SCAPs proliferated on Jagged1-treated dECMs were comparable to those of the control dECMs. SCAPs exhibited significantly higher mineralization on dECM-N in OM and markedly enhanced on dECM-OM with normal medium or OM conditions. Conclusion: Jagged1-treated hDPSC-derived dECMs are biocompatible and increase odonto/osteogenic differentiation of SCAPs. The results suggested the potential of Jagged1 dECMs, which could be further developed into ECM scaffolds for application in regenerative medicine.

Project description:Dentin-pulp complex regeneration is a promising alternative treatment for the irreversible pulpitis caused by tooth trauma or dental caries. This process mainly relies on the recruitment of endogenous or the transplanted dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to guide dentin-pulp tissue formation. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), a well-known potent mitogenic, angiogenic, and chemoattractive agent, has been widely used in tissue regeneration. However, the mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effects of PDGF on dentin-pulp complex regeneration are still unclear. In this study, we tested the effect of PDGF-BB on dentin-pulp tissue regeneration by establishing PDGF-BB gene-modified human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) using a lentivirus. Our results showed that PDGF-BB can significantly enhance hDPSC proliferation and odontoblastic differentiation. Furthermore, PDGF-BB and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) secreted by hDPSCs enhanced angiogenesis. The chemoattractive effect of PDGF-BB on hDPSCs was also confirmed using a Transwell chemotactic migration model. We further determined that PDGF-BB facilitates hDPSCs migration via the activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway. In vivo, CM-DiI-labeled hDPSCs were injected subcutaneously into mice, and our results showed that more labeled cells were recruited to the sites implanted with calcium phosphate cement scaffolds containing PDGF-BB gene-modified hDPSCs. Finally, the tissue-engineered complexes were implanted subcutaneously in mice for 12 weeks, the Lenti-PDGF group generated more dentin-like mineralized tissue which showed positive staining for the DSPP protein, similar to tooth dentin tissue, and was surrounded by highly vascularized dental pulp-like connective tissue. Taken together, our data demonstrated that the PDGF-BB possesses a powerful function in prompting stem cell-based dentin-pulp tissue regeneration. Stem Cells Translational Medicine 2017;6:2126-2134.
