The enzymatic hydrolysates from deer sinew promote MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation and extracellular matrix synthesis by regulating multiple functional genes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Deer Sinew serves as a medicinal food, and has been used for treating skeletal diseases, especially bone diseases in a long history. Thus, it could become an alternative option for the prevention and therapeutic remedy of bone-related diseases. In our previous study, we established an optimal extraction process of the enzymatic hydrolysates from Chinese Sika deer sinews (DSEH), and we demonstrated that DSEH significantly promoted the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells (an osteoblast-like cell line) with a certain dose-effect relationship. However, the precise molecular mechanism of deer sinew in regulating bone strength is still largely unknown. The aim of this study was to explore the underlying molecular mechanism of DSEH on MC3T3-E1 cells proliferation and extracellular matrix synthesis.

Methods

Preparation and quality control were performed as previously described. The effect of DSEH at different administrated concentrations on cell proliferation was measured using both CCK-8 and MTT assays, and the capacity of DSEH on extracellular matrix synthesis was detected by Alizarin red staining and quantification. The gene expression pattern change of MC3T3-E1 cells under the treatment of DSEH was investigated by RNA-seq analysis accompanied with validation methods.

Results

We demonstrated that DSEH promoted MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation and extracellular matrix synthesis by regulating multiple functional genes. DSEH significantly increased the expression levels of genes that promoted cell proliferation such as Gstp1, Timp1, Serpine1, Cyr61, Crlf1, Thbs1, Ctgf, P4ha2, Sod3 and Nqo1. However, DSEH significantly decreased the expression levels of genes that inhibited cell proliferation such as Mt1, Cdc20, Gas1, Nrp2, Cmtm3, Dlk2, Sema3a, Rbm25 and Hspb6. Furthermore, DSEH mildly increased the expression levels of osteoblast gene markers.

Conclusions

Our findings suggest that DSEH facilitate MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation and extracellular matrix synthesis to consolidate bone formation and stability, but prevent MC3T3-E1 cells from oxidative stress-induced damage, apoptosis and further differentiation. These findings deepened the current understanding of DSEH on regulating bone development, and provided theoretical support for the discovery of optional prevention and treatment for bone-related diseases.

Project description:Bone cell culture systems are essential tools for the study of the molecular mechanisms regulating extracellular matrix mineralization. MC3T3-E1 osteoblast cell cultures are the most commonly used in vitro model of bone matrix mineralization. Despite the widespread use of this cell line to study biomineralization, there is as yet no systematic characterization of the mineral phase produced in these cultures. Here we provide a comprehensive, multi-technique biophysical characterization of this cell culture mineral and extracellular matrix, and compare it to mouse bone and synthetic apatite mineral standards, to determine the suitability of MC3T3-E1 cultures for biomineralization studies. Elemental compositional analysis by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) showed calcium and phosphorus, and trace amounts of sodium and magnesium, in both biological samples. X-ray diffraction (XRD) on resin-embedded intact cultures demonstrated that similar to 1-month-old mouse bone, apatite crystals grew with preferential orientations along the (100), (101) and (111) mineral planes indicative of guided biogenic growth as opposed to dystrophic calcification. XRD of crystals isolated from the cultures revealed that the mineral phase was poorly crystalline hydroxyapatite with 10 to 20nm-sized nanocrystallites. Consistent with the XRD observations, electron diffraction patterns indicated that culture mineral had low crystallinity typical of biological apatites. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed apatitic carbonate and phosphate within the biological samples. With all techniques utilized, cell culture mineral and mouse bone mineral were remarkably similar. Scanning (SEM) and transmission (TEM) electron microscopy showed that the cultures had a dense fibrillar collagen matrix with small, 100nm-sized, collagen fibril-associated mineralization foci which coalesced to form larger mineral aggregates, and where mineralized sites showed the accumulation of the mineral-binding protein osteopontin. Light microscopy, confocal microscopy and three-dimensional reconstructions showed that some cells had dendritic processes and became embedded within the mineral in an osteocyte-like manner. In conclusion, we have documented characteristics of the mineral and matrix phases of MC3T3-E1 osteoblast cultures, and have determined that the structural and compositional properties of the mineral are highly similar to that of mouse bone.

Project description:BackgroundIn mouse, it was discovered that resveratrol (Res) enhanced osteoporosis (OP) by boosting osteogenesis. Besides, Res can also have an impact on MC3T3-E1 cells, which are crucial for the control of osteogenesis and thus increase osteogenesis. Although some articles have discovered that Res enhanced autophagy to promote the value-added differentiation of MC3T3, it is unclear exactly how this affects the process of osteogenesis in mouse. Therefore, we will show that Res encourages MC3T3-E1 proliferation and differentiation in mouse pre-osteoblasts and further investigate the autophagy-related mechanism for this impact.Methods(1) MC3T3-E1 cells were separated into blank control group and various concentrations (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100µmol/L) of group in order to determine the ideal Res concentration. In the Res group, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to measure the proliferation activity of pre-osteoblasts in mice in each group after resveratrol intervention. Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red staining were used to gauge the degree of osteogenic differentiation, and RT-qPCR was used to measure the expression levels of Runx2 and OCN in the osteogenic differentiation ability of the cells. (2) In the experiment, four groups were set up: the control group, 3MA group, Res group, and Res + 3MA group. To examine cell mineralization, ALP and alizarin red staining were utilized. RT-qPCR and Western blot detection of cell autophagy activity levels and osteogenic differentiation capacity in each group following intervention.Results(1) Resveratrol might increase the number of mice pre-osteoblast, with the impact being most pronounced at 10µmol/L (P < 0.05). The nodules developed substantially more often than in the blank control group, and Runx2 and OCN expressions significantly increased (P < 0.05). (2) In contrast to the Res group, after 3MA purine blocked autophagy, the Res + 3MA group's alkaline phosphatase staining and the development of mineralized nodules were reduced. Runx2, OCN, LC3II / LC3I expression decreased, p62 expression increased (P < 0.05).ConclusionThe present study partially or indirectly demonstrated that Res may, through increased autophagy, induce osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells.
