Project description:Endochondral ossification forms and grows the majority of the mammalian skeleton and is tightly controlled through gene regulatory networks. The forkhead box transcription factors Foxc1 and Foxc2 have been demonstrated to regulate aspects of osteoblast function in the formation of the skeleton but their roles in chondrocytes to control endochondral ossification are less clear. We demonstrate that Foxc1 expression is directly regulated by SOX9 activity, one of the earliest transcription factors to specify the chondrocyte lineages. Moreover we demonstrate that elevelated expression of Foxc1 promotes chondrocyte differentiation in mouse embryonic stem cells and loss of Foxc1 function inhibits chondrogenesis in vitro. Using chondrocyte-targeted deletion of Foxc1 and Foxc2 in mice, we reveal a role for these factors in chondrocyte differentiation in vivo. Loss of both Foxc1 and Foxc2 caused a general skeletal dysplasia predominantly affecting the vertebral column. The long bones of the limb were smaller and mineralization was reduced and organization of the growth plate was disrupted. In particular, the stacked columnar organization of the proliferative chondrocyte layer was reduced in size and cell proliferation in growth plate chondrocytes was reduced. Differential gene expression analysis indicated disrupted expression patterns in chondrogenesis and ossification genes throughout the entire process of endochondral ossification in Col2-cre;Foxc1Δ/Δ;Foxc2Δ/Δ embryos. Our results suggest that Foxc1 and Foxc2 are required for correct chondrocyte differentiation and function. Loss of both genes results in disorganization of the growth plate, reduced chondrocyte proliferation and delays in chondrocyte hypertrophy that prevents correct ossification of the endochondral skeleton.

Project description:Beyond forming bone, osteoblasts play pivotal roles in various biological processes, including hematopoiesis and bone metastasis. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have recently been implicated in intercellular communication via transfer of proteins and nucleic acids between cells. Here, we focused on the proteomic characterization of non-mineralizing (NMOBs) and mineralizing (MOBs) human osteoblast (SV-HFOs) EVs and investigated their effect on human prostate cancer (PC3) cells by microscopic, proteomic and gene expression analyses. Proteomic analysis showed that 97% of the proteins were shared among NMOB and MOB EVs, and 30% were novel osteoblast-specific EV proteins. Label-free quantification demonstrated mineralization stage-dependent five-fold enrichment of 59 and 451 EV proteins in NMOBs and MOBs, respectively. Interestingly, bioinformatic analyses of the osteoblast EV proteomes and EV-regulated prostate cancer gene expression profiles showed that they converged on pathways involved in cell survival and growth. This was verified by in vitro proliferation assays where osteoblast EV uptake led to two-fold increase in PC3 cell growth compared to cell-free culture medium-derived vesicle controls. Our findings elucidate the mineralization stage-specific protein content of osteoblast-secreted EVs, show a novel way by which osteoblasts communicate with prostate cancer, and open up innovative avenues for therapeutic intervention. PC3 cells were treated with extracellular vesicles from non-mineralizing and mineralizing SV-HFOs for three different incubation times (4hrs, 24hrs, 48hr)

Project description:Appendicular skeletal growth and bone mass acquisition are controlled by a variety of growth factors, hormones, and mechanical forces in a dynamic process called endochondral ossification. In long bones, chondrocytes in the growth plate proliferate and undergo hypertrophy to drive bone lengthening and mineralization. Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and leucine rich repeat phosphatase 1 and 2 (Phlpp1 and Phlpp2) are serine/threonine protein phosphatases that regulate cell proliferation, survival, and maturation via Akt, PKC, Raf1, S6k, and other intracellular signaling cascades. Germline deletion of Phlpp1 suppresses bone lengthening in part through parathyroid hormone receptor-dependent signaling in growth plate chondrocytes. Here, we demonstrate that Phlpp2 does not regulate endochondral ossification, and we define the molecular differences between Phlpp1 and Phlpp2 in chondrocytes. Phlpp2-/- mice are phenotypically indistinguishable from their wildtype (WT) littermates, with similar bone length, bone mass, and growth plate dynamics. Deletion of Phlpp2 had moderate effects on the chondrocyte transcriptome and proteome compared to WT cells. By contrast, Phlpp1/2-/- (double knockout) mice resembled Phlpp1-/- mice phenotypically and chondrocyte phospho-proteomes of Phlpp1-/- and Phlpp1/2-/- chondrocytes were different than WT and Phlpp2-/- chondrocyte phospho-proteomes. Data integration via multiparametric analysis identified alterations in Pdpk1 and Pak1/2 signaling pathways in chondrocytes lacking Phlpp1. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that Phlpp1, but not Phlpp2, regulates endochondral ossification through multiple and complex signaling cascades.

Project description:Interleukin-15 receptor alpha (IL15RA) is an important component of interleukin-15 (IL15) pro-inflammatory signaling. In addition, IL15 and IL15RA are present in the circulation and are detected in a variety of tissues where they influence physiological functions such as muscle contractility and overall metabolism. In the skeletal system, IL15RA was previously shown to be important for osteoclastogenesis. Little is known, however, about its role in osteoblast function and bone mineralization. In this study, we evaluated bone structural and mechanical properties of an Il15ra whole-body knockout mouse (Il15raKO) and used in vitro and bioinformatic analyses to understand the role IL15/IL15RA signaling on osteoblast function. We show that lack of IL15RA decreased bone mineralization in vivo and in isolated primary osteogenic cultures, suggesting a cell-autonomous effect. Il15raKO osteogenic cultures also had reduced Rankl/Opg mRNA ratio, indicating defective osteoblast/osteoclast coupling. We analyzed the transcriptome of primary pre-osteoblasts from normal and Il15raKO mice and identified 1150 genes that were differentially expressed at an FDR of 5%. Of these, 844 transcripts were upregulated and 306 were downregulated in Il15raKO cells. The largest functional clusters, highlighted using DAVID analysis, were related to metabolism, immune response, bone mineralization and morphogenesis. The transcriptome analysis was validated by qPCR of some of the most significant hits. Using bioinformatic approaches, we identified candidate genes, including Cd200 and Enpp1, that could contribute to the reduced mineralization. Silencing Il15ra using shRNA in the calvarial osteoblast MC3T3-E1 cell line decreased ENPP1 activity. Taken together, these data support that IL15RA plays a cell-autonomous role in osteoblast function and bone mineralization.

Project description:We utilized RNA sequencing to provide the gene expression profile of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived osteoblasts in different differentiation stages as well as the gene alteration profile of H9 MSCs-derived osteoblasts following different gene regulation treatments, including SDC1 overexpression, knockout of CEBPD, knockout of IL1R1, and knockdown of CORIN. The commitment of stem cells to an osteoblastic lineage is a complex and tightly regulated process, involving coordination between extrinsic signals and intrinsic transcriptional machinery. While many rodent osteoblast studies abound, human osteoblastic signaling networks are not as well-researched due to limitations in cell sources and existing models. Here, we generated human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived osteoblasts and used this modeling platform to identify functional osteoblastic surface receptors and their downstream transcriptional networks involved in human osteogenesis. We systematically dissected osteoblastic gene expression patterns and identified critical clusters associated with osteogenesis. The osteoblast surface receptor signature study revealed enriched CORIN expression in osteoblasts and enriched SDC1 expression in MSCs. In vitro calcified staining and 3D biomimetic GelMA/microCT (μCT) studies demonstrated that depletion of CORIN as well as ectopic expression of SDC1 significantly impaired osteogenesis. Transcriptome analyses revealed that dysregulation of CORIN or SDC1 alters biological processes and pathways mainly involved in bone formation associated signaling including TGFβ regulating extracellular matrix and Wnt signaling. Genome-wide ChIP enrichment analysis further indicated that CEBPD is a downstream transcription factor involved in CORIN and SDC1-modulated osteogenesis. CEBPD ChIP-seq and RNA-seq validated its role in controlling extracellular matrix organization, bone mineralization, and TGFβ, BMP, and Wnt signaling. Depletion of CEBPD led to impairment of osteoblastic differentiation. Differential expression analysis of single-cell transcriptomes revealed enriched expression of CEBPD and its transcriptional targets during the different stages of osteoblast differentiation. In summary, our findings elucidated the vital signaling in osteoblast lineage commitment.

Project description:Osteoblasts are adherent cells. Under physiological conditions they attach to mineralized and non-mineralized osseous surfaces. However, how exactly osteoblasts respond to these different osseous surfaces is largely unknown. Our hypothesis was that the state of matrix mineralization provides a functional signal to osteoblasts. To assess the osteoblast response to mineralized compared to demineralized osseous surfaces, we assessed the transcriptom.

Project description:The use of glycosaminoglycan-coated implants are a promising therapeutic approach in bone research since they mimic the native bone environment and facilitate the skeletonegenesis. Previous studies showed that sulfated glycosaminoglycans induce the osteoblastic phenotype, but the overall effect on the cellular proteome were only minor. Therefore we focussed on the osteoblast-released matric vesicles (MV) that are known to hold a keyrole in the initiation of the mineralization of the extracellular matrix. Indeed, we found a strong impact of sulfated glycosaminoglycans on the activity and composition of MV. In addition, to find out if the altered MV composition is a reflection of an altered cellular proteome we compared the GAG-induced changes in both proteome.

Project description:To investigate the function and affected pathways of uMSC-derived exosomes on ossification, we used human and rat osteoblast cell line hFOB1.19 and ROS1728 treated with either exosomes or exosome-free supernatent (which is the supernatent of exosome pelleting after ultracentrifugation) and a non-treated group as negative control. We take advantages of high through-put sequencing technology to fully reveal the transcriptome changes of the treated cells.

Project description:We carried out CEBPD chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by next generation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and revealed that the top motif enriched in CEBPD sites are identical to the CEBPD family motif and osteoblast differentiation/bone formation motifs like Fos1, Fra1, JUNB, RUNX and STAT3. The commitment of stem cells to an osteoblastic lineage is a complex and tightly regulated process, involving coordination between extrinsic signals and intrinsic transcriptional machinery.
