Hyaluronan Synthases’ Expression and Activity Are Induced by Fluid Shear Stress in Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

ABSTRACT: During biomineralization, the cells generating the biominerals must be able to sense the external physical stimuli exerted by the growing mineralized tissue and change their intracellular protein composition according to these stimuli. In molluscan shell, the myosin-chitin synthases have been suggested to be the link for this communication between cells and the biomaterial. Hyaluronan synthases (HAS) belong to the same enzyme family as chitin synthases. Their product hyaluronan (HA) occurs in the bone and is supposed to have a regulatory function during bone regeneration. We hypothesize that HASes’ expression and activity are controlled by fluid-induced mechanotransduction as it is known for molluscan chitin synthases. In this study, bone marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were exposed to fluid shear stress of 10 Pa. The RNA transcriptome was analyzed by RNA sequencing (RNAseq). HA concentrations in the supernatants were measured by ELISA. The cellular structure of hMSCs and HAS2-overexpressing hMSCs was investigated after treatment with shear stress using confocal microscopy. Fluid shear stress upregulated the expression of genes that encode proteins belonging to the HA biosynthesis and bone mineralization pathways. The HAS activity appeared to be induced. Knowledge about the regulation mechanism governing HAS expression, trafficking, enzymatic activation and quality of the HA product in hMSCs is essential to understand the biological role of HA in the bone microenvironment.

Adiponectin enhances bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell resistance to flow shear stress through AMP-activated protein kinase signaling.

Project description:Adiponectin has been demonstrated to protect the cardiovascular system and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). However, it is unclear whether adiponectin can protect BMSCs against flow shear stress (FSS). In this study, our aim was to explore the effects of adiponectin on BMSCs and to explore the role of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling in this process. Shear stress significantly inhibits the survival and increases the apoptosis of BMSCs in an intensity-dependent manner. The expression levels of TGF-β, bFGF, VEGF, PDGF, and Bcl2 are simultaneously reduced, and the phosphorylation levels of AMPK and ACC, as well as the expression level of Bax, are increased. Supplementation with adiponectin promotes the survival of BMSCs; reverses the changes in the expression levels of TGF-β, bFGF, VEGF, PDGF, Bcl2, and Bax; and further amplifies the phosphorylation of AMPK and ACC. Furthermore, the protective effects of adiponectin can be partially neutralized by AMPK siRNA. In summary, we have demonstrated for the first time that adiponectin can effectively protect BMSCs from FSS and that this effect depends, at least in part, on the activation of AMPK signaling.

The canine epiphyseal-derived mesenchymal stem cells are comparable to bone marrow derived-mesenchymal stem cells.

Project description:Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great potential in cell therapy and have attracted increasing interests in a wide range of biomedical sciences. However, the scarcity of MSCs and the prolonged isolation procedure limited the clinical application. To address these 2 issues, we developed a method to isolate MSCs from bone biopsy tissues of euthanized canine body donors. Compared to the traditional method to isolate MSCs from aspirated bone marrow (BMSCs), the isolation procedure for MSCs from harvested epiphyseal cancellous bone (EMSCs) was less time-consuming. The isolated EMSCs had similar plastic-adherence, tri-lineage differentiation and consistent surface marker profiles compared to BMSCs. We harvested BMSCs and EMSCs from 24 euthanized cases from clinics and 42 euthanized donors from a local shelter. The successful rate for EMSC isolation is significantly higher compared to BMSC isolation, while the other properties of the isolated MSCs including the clonogenicity, proliferative potentials and molecular phenotypes were not discernibly different between the MSCs established by the two methods. In conclusion, we demonstrated a new procedure to harvest MSCs by bone biopsy at the epiphyseal region. This method is less time consuming and more reliable, and the resulting MSCs are comparable to those harvested by bone marrow aspiration. The combination of the two methods can greatly improve the efficiency to harvest MSCs.

Characterization of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells in suspension.

Project description:IntroductionBone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) are a heterogeneous population of postnatal precursor cells with the capacity of adhering to culture dishes generating colony-forming unit-fibroblasts (CFU-F). Here we identify a new subset of BMMSCs that fail to adhere to plastic culture dishes and remain in culture suspension (S-BMMSCs).MethodsTo catch S-BMMSCs, we used BMMSCs-produced extracellular cell matrix (ECM)-coated dishes. Isolated S-BMMSCs were analyzed by in vitro stem cell analysis approaches, including flow cytometry, inductive multiple differentiation, western blot and in vivo implantation to assess the bone regeneration ability of S-BMMSCs. Furthermore, we performed systemic S-BMMSCs transplantation to treat systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-like MRL/lpr mice.ResultsS-BMMSCs are capable of adhering to ECM-coated dishes and showing mesenchymal stem cell characteristics with distinction from hematopoietic cells as evidenced by co-expression of CD73 or Oct-4 with CD34, forming a single colony cluster on ECM, and failure to differentiate into hematopoietic cell lineage. Moreover, we found that culture-expanded S-BMMSCs exhibited significantly increased immunomodulatory capacities in vitro and an efficacious treatment for SLE-like MRL/lpr mice by rebalancing regulatory T cells (Tregs) and T helper 17 cells (Th17) through high NO production.ConclusionsThese data suggest that it is feasible to improve immunotherapy by identifying a new subset BMMSCs.

Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells from different bone sources: a panorama.

Project description:Regenerative medicine is a promising field in orthopaedic surgery. Although surgical treatments can produce excellent outcomes and may be the best choice for some patients, regenerative medicine can provide with more minimally-invasive treatment options. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells and are highly capable to differentiate into osteocytes or chondrocytes, while they can be isolated from different bone sources. The bone marrow aspiration from the posterior iliac crest appears to be preferred, as it provided a modestly higher concentration of nucleated cells [(25.1-54.7)×106 cells/mL]. MSCs are also easily obtained from other bone sources, such as humerus, femur, tibia, vertebral body or calcaneus and have their content ranges between 5.8×106 and 38.7×106 nucleated cells. Although, they present a wide range of documented nucleated cells, they can be cultivated and expanded in vitro in multiple cell types, avoiding a second surgical site while preventing post-operative pain and the possible risk for infection. Thus, they represent a promising and encouraging treatment option in orthopaedic surgery.

Nitric Oxide Modulates Postnatal Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Migration.

Project description:Nitric oxide (NO) is a small free-radical gas molecule, which is highly diffusible and can activate a wide range of downstream effectors, with rapid and widespread cellular effects. NO is a versatile signaling mediator with a plethora of cellular functions. For example, NO has been shown to regulate actin, the microfilament, dependent cellular functions, and also acts as a putative stem cell differentiation-inducing agent. In this study, using a wound-healing model of cellular migration, we have explored the effect of exogenous NO on the kinetics of movement and morphological changes in postnatal bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Cellular migration kinetics and morphological changes of the migrating MSCs were measured in the presence of an NO donor (S-Nitroso-N-Acetyl-D,L-Penicillamine, SNAP), especially, to track the dynamics of single-cell responses. Two experimental conditions were assessed, in which SNAP (200 ?M) was applied to the MSCs. In the first experimental group (SN-1), SNAP was applied immediately following wound formation, and migration kinetics were determined for 24 h. In the second experimental group (SN-2), MSCs were pretreated for 7 days with SNAP prior to wound formation and the determination of migration kinetics. The generated displacement curves were further analyzed by non-linear regression analysis. The migration displacement of the controls and NO treated MSCs (SN-1 and SN-2) was best described by a two parameter exponential functions expressing difference constant coefficients. Additionally, changes in the fractal dimension (D) of migrating MSCs were correlated with their displacement kinetics for all the three groups. Overall, these data suggest that NO may evidently function as a stop migration signal by disordering the cytoskeletal elements required for cell movement and proliferation of MSCs.

Mitophagy promotes the stemness of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

Project description:Previous studies demonstrated that mitochondrial fission arguments the stemness of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Because mitophagy is critical in removing damaged or surplus mitochondrial fragments and maintaining mitochondrial integrity, the present study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that mitophagy is involved in mitochondrial fission-enhanced stemness of BMSCs. Primary cultures of rat BMSCs were treated with tyrphostin A9 (TA9, a potent inducer of mitochondrial fission) to increase mitochondrial fission, which was accompanied by enhanced mitophagy as defined by increased co-staining of MitoTracker Green for mitochondria and LysoTracker Deep Red for lysosomes, as well as the increased co-localization of autophagy markers (LC3B, P62) and mitochondrial marker (Tom20). A mitochondrial uncoupler, carbonyl cyanide 4-(trifluoromethoxy) phenylhydrazone (FCCP) was used to promote mitophagy, which was confirmed by an increased co-localization of mitochondrial and lysosome biomarkers. The argumentation of mitophagy was associated with enhanced stemness of BMSCs as defined by increased expression of stemness markers Oct4 and Sox2, and enhanced induction of BMSCs to adipocytes or osteocytes. Conversely, transfection of BMSCs with siRNA targeting mitophagy-essential genes Pink1/Prkn led to diminished stemness of the stem cells, as defined by depressed stemness markers. Importantly, concomitant promotion of mitochondrial fission and inhibition of mitophagy suppressed the stemness of BMSCs. These results thus demonstrate that mitophagy is critically involved in mitochondrial fission promotion of the stemness of BMSCs.

Proteomic Comparison of Bone Marrow Derived Osteoblasts and Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

Project description:Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can differentiate into osteoblasts, and therapeutic targeting of these cells is considered both for malignant and non-malignant diseases. We analyzed global proteomic profiles for osteoblasts derived from ten and MSCs from six healthy individuals, and we quantified 5465 proteins for the osteoblasts and 5420 proteins for the MSCs. There was a large overlap in the profiles for the two cell types; 156 proteins were quantified only in osteoblasts and 111 proteins only for the MSCs. The osteoblast-specific proteins included several extracellular matrix proteins and a network including 27 proteins that influence intracellular signaling (Wnt/Notch/Bone morphogenic protein pathways) and bone mineralization. The osteoblasts and MSCs showed only minor age- and sex-dependent proteomic differences. Finally, the osteoblast and MSC proteomic profiles were altered by ex vivo culture in serum-free media. We conclude that although the proteomic profiles of osteoblasts and MSCs show many similarities, we identified several osteoblast-specific extracellular matrix proteins and an osteoblast-specific intracellular signaling network. Therapeutic targeting of these proteins will possibly have minor effects on MSCs. Furthermore, the use of ex vivo cultured osteoblasts/MSCs in clinical medicine will require careful standardization of the ex vivo handling of the cells.

Genomic Analysis of Invasive Human Bone Marrow Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

Project description:BackgroundHuman bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are capable of differentiation into multiple cell lineages and demonstrate a wide variety of use in various therapeutic applications. Only recently has research begun to understand the gene expression profiles of hMSCs and their differentiated counterparts in vivo and ex vivo.PurposeThe research presented here aimed at gaining a better understanding of gene expression patterns present during hMSC invasion through a basement membrane.MethodsChanges in gene expression were evaluated between invasive and non-invasive cells using Agilent's gene expression arrays and Matrigel invasion chambers. The cells were specifically attracted to a defined stem cell media called SCM.ResultsA total 435 genes were up-regulated by 2- fold or more in the invasive population of cells and classified into developmental programs and immunological/inflammatory signaling pathways determined by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). This list included a variety of regulators of growth and differentiation including NANOG, STAT3 and STAT5A and members of the polycomb repressive complex-2 (PCRC2) EZH2 and SUZ12. The known regulator of inflammation and hypoxia HIF-1α was also increased suggesting that regulation of the microenvironment is important during this process. Finally, the invasion process could be reversed using the STAT3 inhibitor Static.ConclusionsOverall these data will increase the understanding of the genetic pathways functioning during hMSC invasion and aid in the development of their therapeutic applications.

Combined macromolecule biomaterials together with fluid shear stress promote the osteogenic differentiation capacity of equine adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

Project description:BackgroundCombination of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and biomaterials is a rapidly growing approach in regenerative medicine particularly for chronic degenerative disorders including osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. The present study examined the effect of biomaterial scaffolds on equine adipose-derived MSC morphology, viability, adherence, migration, and osteogenic differentiation.MethodsMSCs were cultivated in conjunction with collagen CultiSpher-S Microcarrier (MC), nanocomposite xerogels B30 and combined B30 with strontium (B30Str) biomaterials in osteogenic differentiation medium either under static or mechanical fluid shear stress (FSS) culture conditions. The data were generated by histological means, live cell imaging, cell viability, adherence and migration assays, semi-quantification of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and quantification of the osteogenic markers runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) expression.ResultsThe data revealed that combined mechanical FSS with MC but not B30 enhanced MSC viability and promoted their migration. Combined osteogenic medium with MC, B30, and B30Str increased ALP activity compared to cultivation in basal medium. Osteogenic induction with MC, B30, and B30Str resulted in diffused matrix mineralization. The combined osteogenic induction with biomaterials under mechanical FSS increased Runx2 protein expression either in comparison to those cells cultivated in BM or those cells induced under static culture. Runx2 and ALP expression was upregulated following combined osteogenic differentiation together with B30 and B30Str regardless of static or FSS culture.ConclusionsTaken together, the data revealed that FSS in conjunction with biomaterials promoted osteogenic differentiation of MSCs. This combination may be considered as a marked improvement for clinical applications to cure bone defects.

PKD1 alleviates oxidative stress-inhibited osteogenesis of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells through TAZ activation.

Project description:Oxidative stress is known to inhibit osteogenesis and PKD1 is implicated in bone remodeling and skeletogenesis. In the present study, we explored the role of PKD1 in osteogenesis under oxidative stress. H2 O2 was used to induce oxidative stress in rat bone marrow (BM)-mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) during osteoblast differentiation. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, calcium deposits, and the RUNX2 marker were assayed to determine osteogenic differentiation. The correlation of PKD1, Sirt1, c-MYC, and TAZ was further confirmed by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and dual-luciferase reporter assay. We found that H2 O2 induced the downregulation of PKD1 expression and the upregulation of c-MYC, and Sirt1 was accompanied by decreasing cell viability in BM-MSCs. During osteogenic differentiation, the expression of PKD1 was upregulated significantly whereas Sirt1 tended to be upregulated mildly under normal conditions. Both PKD1 and Sirt1 were upregulated upon oxidative stress. The positive correlation of PKD1 expression with osteogenic differentiation under normal conditions might be hindered by oxidative stress and PKD1 could interact with TAZ under oxidative stress to regulate osteogenic differentiation. Our results suggest that PKD1 may alleviate oxidative stress-inhibited osteogenesis of rat BM-MSCs through TAZ activation.
