Comprehensive analysis of M2 macrophage-derived exosomes facilitating osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The role of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and macrophage polarization in periodontal tissue regeneration and bone remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) has been well documented. Nevertheless, the interactions between macrophages and PDLSCs in OTM remain to be investigated. Consequently, the present study was proposed to explore the effect of different polarization states of macrophages on the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.

Methods

After M0, M1 and M2 macrophage-derived exosomes (M0-exo, M1-exo and M2-exo) treatment of primary cultured human PDLSCs, respectively, mineralized nodules were observed by Alizarin red S staining, and the expression of ALP and OCN mRNA and protein were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blotting, correspondingly. Identification of differentially expressed microRNAs (DE-miRNA) in M0-exo and M2-exo by miRNA microarray, and GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of DE-miRNA targets, and construction of protein-protein interaction networks.

Results

M2-exo augmented mineralized nodule formation and upregulated ALP and OCN expression in PDLSCs, while M0-exo had no significant effect. Compared to M0-exo, a total of 52 DE-miRNAs were identified in M2-exo. The expression of hsa-miR-6507-3p, hsa-miR-4731-3p, hsa-miR-4728-3p, hsa-miR-3614-5p and hsa-miR-6785-3p was significantly down-regulated, and the expression of hsa-miR-6085, hsa-miR-4800-5p, hsa-miR-4778-5p, hsa-miR-6780b-5p and hsa-miR-1227-5p was significantly up-regulated in M2-exo compared to M0-exo. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that the downstream targets of DE-miRNAs were mainly involved in the differentiation and migration of multiple cells.

Conclusions

In summary, we have indicated for the first time that M2-exo can promote osteogenic differentiation of human PDLSCs, and have revealed the functions and pathways involved in the DE-miRNAs of M0-exo and M2-exo and their downstream targets.

Project description:Introduction and aimsSpecific circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been proven to play crucial roles in osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo. This study aims to identify a certain circRNA involved in the osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and explore its regulatory role.MethodsThe expression of 5 candidate circRNAs (circ_0026344, circ_ACAP2, circ_0003764, circ_0008259, and circ_0060731) was detected by real-time quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) after PDLSCs were cultured in the osteogenic induction medium or medium supplemented with tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α, 10 ng/mL) for 3 and 7 days. The circRNA significantly decreased in both 3 and 7 days of osteogenic induction in PDLSCs and markedly increased in TNF-α-induced PDLSCs for 3 and 7 days screened. Identified circRNA was knocked down or overexpressed, and the effect on the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs was investigated by qRT-PCR, western blot, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, and alizarin red S (ARS) staining. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) assay were applied to detect the effect of the circRNA on the proliferation of PDLSCs.ResultsqRT-PCR results showed that the expression of circ_0003764 was significantly decreased when PDLSCs were cultured in the osteogenic induction medium for 3 or 7 days, whereas it was dramatically increased in TNF-α-induced PDLSCs. Knockdown of circ_0003764 promoted the expression of the osteogenesis-related genes (RUNX2, ALP, OCN) and proteins (RUNX2, OCN), enhanced the ALP activity, and elevated the mineralization by PDLSCs, as shown by ARS staining. However, with the overexpression of circ_0003764, the osteogenic differentiation capacity of PDLSCs was significantly reduced. The CCK-8 and EdU results indicated that circ_0003764 could inhibit the proliferation of PDLSCs.ConclusionCirc_0003764 is involved in the osteogenesis process and inhibits the osteogenic differentiation and proliferation of PDLSCs.Clinical relevanceThis study indicates that circ_0003764 can serve as a diagnostic and therapeutic target in bone regeneration-related diseases treated by PDLSCs-based tissue engineering.

Project description:BackgroundThe oral cavity is a complex environment in which periodontal tissue is constantly stimulated by external microorganisms and mechanical forces. Proper mechanical force helps maintain periodontal tissue homeostasis, and improper inflammatory response can break the balance. Periodontal ligament (PDL) cells play crucial roles in responding to these challenges and maintaining the homeostasis of periodontal tissue. However, the mechanisms underlying PDL cell property changes induced by inflammatory and mechanical force microenvironments are still unclear. Recent studies have shown that exosomes function as a means of cell-cell and cell-matrix communication in biological processes.MethodsHuman periodontal ligament stem cells (HPDLSCs) were tested by the CCK8 assay, EdU, alizarin red, and ALP staining to evaluate the functions of exosomes induced by a mechanical strain. MicroRNA sequencing was used to find the discrepancy miRNA in exosomes. In addition, real-time PCR, FISH, luciferase reporter assay, and western blotting assay were used to investigate the mechanism of miR-181b-5p regulating proliferation and osteogenic differentiation through the PTEN/AKT pathway.ResultsIn this study, the exosomes secreted by MLO-Y4 cells exposed to mechanical strain (Exosome-MS) contributed to HPDLSC proliferation and osteogenic differentiation. High-throughput miRNA sequencing showed that miR181b-5p was upregulated in Exosome-MS compared to the exosomes derived from MLO-Y4 cells lacking mechanical strain. The luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that miR-181b-5p may target phosphatase tension homolog deletion (PTEN). In addition, PTEN was negatively regulated by overexpressing miR-181b-5p. Real-time PCR and western blotting assay verified that miR-181b-5p enhanced the protein kinase B (PKB, also known as AKT) activity and improved downstream factor transcription. Furthermore, miR-181b-5p effectively ameliorated the inhibition of HPDLSC proliferation and promoted HPDLSC induced by inflammation.ConclusionsThis study concluded that exosomes induced by mechanical strain promote HPDLSC proliferation via the miR-181b-5p/PTEN/AKT signaling pathway and promote HPDLSC osteogenic differentiation by BMP2/Runx2, suggesting a potential mechanism for maintaining periodontal homeostasis.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been widely known to have an appreciable effect in physiology and pathology. In tooth regeneration, periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are regarded as a key effector, whereas, how lncRNA acts in the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs have not been completely understood. This study aims to find out the relationship between lncRNA DANCR and the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.MethodsMicroarray was used to observe the different expression of lncRNAs in differentiated and undifferentiated PDLSCs. And then osteogenic-related lncRNA, DANCR was screened out. Its effects on proliferation and osteogenic differentiation was explored by constructing an overexpression and inhibition model. qRT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of osteogenesis related genes. MTT assay was performed to assess the effects of DANCR on cell growth curve. To quantify the effects of DANCR on osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs, ALP staining and alizarin red was performed in basic culture medium and osteogenic medium. Data were statistically processed.ResultsCompared with the undifferentiated PDLSCs, the alizarin red staining level was higher in differentiated PDLSCs. And the expressions of osteogenic differentiation marker genes Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), osteocalcin (OCN) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP-2) were significantly increased in the differentiated PDLSCs. Furthermore, we noticed that comparing with control groups, the expression of lncRNA DANCR decreases markedly in osteogenically induced PDLSCs. DANCR promoted proliferation of PDLSCs, as evidenced by cell viability. Further investigation has proven that the downregulation of DANCR shows in the calcium sediment forming, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activation and some osteogenic-related gene markers' upregulation including Runx2, OCN and BMP-2, which finally results in the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs following the transfection and induction. Conversely, DANCR upregulation was shown to repress the osteogenic differentiation potential of PDLSCs.ConclusionsThe osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs has proven to related to the down regulation of lncRNA DANCR. And this paper throws light on the effects of DANCR in the process of PDLSCs' osteogenic differentiation.
