Project description:Extracellular nucleotides are potent signaling molecules mediating cell-specific biological functions. We previously demonstrated that adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) inhibits the proliferation while stimulating the migration, in vitro and in vivo, of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-hMSC). Here, we investigated the effects of ATP on BM-hMSC differentiation capacity. Molecular analysis showed that ATP treatment modulated the expression of several genes (e.g. wnt-pathway-related genes) governing osteoblastic and adipogenic differentiation of MSCs. Functional studies demonstrated that ATP, under specific culture conditions, stimulated adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation by significantly increasing the lipid accumulation and the expression levels of the adipogenic master gene PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma) and by promoting the mineralization and the expression of the osteoblast-related gene RUNX2 (Runt-related transcription factor 2), respectively. BM-hMSCs cells were transiently exposed to ATP 1mM for 24 hours (ATP pre-treatment) before starting differentiation induction. Then, BM-hMSCs were cultured under adipogenic/osteogenic conditions. Gene Expression Profile was performed on differentiate cells after 3 weeks of induction culture.

Project description:Mesenchymal stromal stem cells (MSCs) gain increasing focus in the field of regenerative medicine due to their differentiational abilities into chondrocytes, adipocytes and osteoblastic cells. However, it is apparent that the transformation processes are extremely complex, cause cellular heterogeneity and need further insights into functional annotation. The aim of the study was to characterize differences between MSCs and cells after adipogenic or osteoblastic differentiation at the proteome level. For this, we analysed the proteome of isolated and cultured MSCs and after differentiation into adipogenic and osteoblastic cell lineages using electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry in data-independent acquisition mode. Protein inference and quantification was performed using deep neural networks in library free mode. By jointly using strict differential expression analysis and machine learning algorithms, two cell type specific marker protein panels for the osteoblastic and the adipocytic lineage were identified which allow for distinguishment of the three cell types.

Project description:The aim of this study was to describe the gene expression patterns related to the differentiation and mineralization of bone-forming cells, including activation and/or repression of osteogenic or non-osteogenic pathways, remodeling of cell architecture, cell adhesion, cell communication, and assembly of extracellular matrix. The study implied patient selection, tissue collection, isolation and culture of human marrow stromal cells (hMSC) and osteoblasts (hOB), and characterization of bone-forming cells. RNA samples were collected at defined time points, in order to understand the regulation of gene expression during the processes of cell differentiation/mineralization that occur during bone repair. Transcriptome analysis was performed by using the Affymetrix GeneChip microarray technology platform and GeneChip® Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array. Our results help to design a gene expression profile of bone-forming cells during specific steps of osteogenic differentiation. These findings offer an useful tool to monitor the behaviour of osteogenic precursors cultured in presence of exogenous stimuli, i.e. growth factors, or onto 3D scaffolds for bone engineering. Moreover, they can contribute to identify and clarify the role of new genes for a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms regulating osteogenesis. Experiment Overall Design: hMSC were obtained from bone marrow aspirates of four patients. hMSC cultures were maintained in mineralization medium containing β-glycerophosphate, and collected at different time points. The experimental protocol was specifically devised to mark three steps of hMSC mineralization (MM). The reference sample consisted in confluent hMSCs before the addition of mineralization medium (MD4).

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are master regulators of gene expression and have recently emerged as potential innovative therapeutic targets. The deregulation of lncRNA expression patterns has been associated with age-related and noncommunicable diseases, including osteoporosis and bone tumors. However, the specific role of lncRNAs in physiological or pathological conditions in the bone tissue still needs to be further clarified, for their exploitation as therapeutic tools. In the present study, we evaluate the potential of the lncRNA CASC2 as a regulator of osteogenic differentiation and mineralization. Results show that CASC2 expression is decreased during osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow-derived Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal cells (MSCs). CASC2 knockdown using small interfering RNA (siCASC2) increases the expression of the late osteogenic marker Bone Sialoprotein (BSP), but does not impact ALP staining levels, or the expression of early osteogenic transcripts including RUNX2 and OPG. Although siCASC2 does not impact hMSC proliferation nor apoptosis, it promotes the mineralization of hMSC cultured under osteogenic-inducing conditions, as shown by the increase of calcium deposits. Mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis revealed that 89 proteins are regulated by CASC2 at late osteogenic stages, including proteins associated with bone diseases or anthropometric and musculoskeletal traits. Specifically, the Cartilage Oligomeric Matrix Protein (COMP) is highly enhanced by CASC2 knockdown at late stages of osteogenic differentiation, at either transcriptional and protein level. Inhibition of COMP impairs osteoblasts mineralization as well as the expression of BSP levels. The results indicate that lncRNA CASC2 regulates late osteogenesis and mineralization in hMSC via COMP and BSP. In conclusion, this study suggests lncRNA CASC2 as a potential new therapeutic target in bone mineralization.

Project description:The highly conserved MicroRNA-9 (miR-9) family consists of three members. We discovered that miR-9-1 deletion reduced mature miR-9 expression, causing 43% of the mice to display smaller size and postweaning lethality. MiR-9-1-deficient mice with growth defects experienced severe lymphopenia, but other blood cells were unaffected. The lymphopenia wasn’t due to defects in hematopoietic progenitors, as mutant bone marrow (BM) cells underwent normal lymphopoiesis after transplantation into wild-type recipients. Additionally, miR-9-1-deficient mice exhibited impaired osteoblastic bone formation, as mutant mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) failed to differentiate into osteoblastic cells (OBs). RNA sequencing revealed reduced expression of master transcription factors for osteoblastic differentiation, Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and Osterix (Osx), and genes related to collagen formation, extracellular matrix organization, and cell adhesion, in miR-9-1-deficient MSCs. Follistatin (Fst), an antagonist of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), was found to be a direct target of miR-9-1. Its deficiency led to the up-regulation of Fst, inhibiting BMP signaling in MSCs, and reducing IL-7 and IGF-1. Thus, miR-9-1 controls osteoblastic regulation of lymphopoiesis by targeting the Fst/BMP/Smad signaling axis.

Project description:Nucleotides triphosphates are extracellular messengers binding to specific plasma membrane receptors (P2Rs) that modulate responses as different as proliferation, differentiation, migration or cell death on several cell types including hematopoietic stem cells. Little and controversial information is available on the role of extracellular nucleotides in human mesenchimal stem cells (hMSCs). In this study, we assessed whether P2Rs are expressed and functional in bone marrow-derived hMSCs. Our results demonstrated, at the mRNA and protein level, the expression of all P2X and P2Y receptor subtypes identified so far. P2R activation by their natural ligands adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and uridine triphosphate (UTP) induced in hMSCs, intracellular Ca2+ concentration changes, plasma membrane depolarization and permeabilization. hMSCs were resistant to the cytotoxic effects of high dose ATP despite the expression of permeabilizing P2Rs as demonstrated by the lack of morphological changes, significant release of intracellular markers of cell death or modification of the mitochondrial network. Gene expression profiling revealed the down-regulation of cell proliferation genes whereas genes involved in cell migration and cytokine production were strongly up-regulated by ATP. Functional studies confirmed the inhibitory activity of ATP on proliferation of hMSCs and clonogenic progenitors. Moreover, ATP exerted a chemotactic effect on hMSCs and increased their migration in response to the chemokine CXCL12. Finally, whereas ATP did not affect T-cell inhibitory activity of hMSCs, the nucleotide increased the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines by hMSCs. Thus, our data show that purinergic signaling modulates hMSC functions and point to a role for extracellular nucleotides on hMSCs biology. hMSCs from 6 healthy donors were seeded at a density of 2.5 x 103 cells/cm2 for 24 hours with or without 1mM ATP. We then assessed the transcriptome profile of ATPM-bM-^@M-^Streated and untreated cells using Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2 GeneChip array.

Project description:UMR106-01 osteoblastic cells are a model for studying bone mineralization. We have shown that mineralization is temporally synchronized within cultures grown under defined conditions . Cells are plated at time zero and differentiate into osteoblastic phenotype by 64 h later. If an exogenous phosphate source is added to the cultures, the cells form and deposit hydroxyapatite mineral within distinct extracellular supramolecular lipid protein complexes termed biomineralization foci (BMF) starting 12 h later. Mineralization is largely complete by 24 h later (88 h after plating). We have also shown that AEBSF, covalent serine protease inhibitor, blocks mineralization within BMF and inhibits the fragmentation of several proteins related to biomineralization. The present experiment was designed to test whether AEBSF treatment for 12 h has an effect on transcription by UMR106-01 osteoblastic cells. AEBSF is known to inactivate several serine proteases including SKI-1 (site 1, subtilisin kexin protease-1).SKI-1 functions intracellularly to activate transmembrane bound transcription factor precursors releasing the transcriptionally active N-terminal portions to imported into the nucleus. Thus, if AEBSF blocks transcription of mineralization related genes, it would support a role for SKI-1 in gene regulation in mineralizing UMR106-01 osteoblastic cells. Comparison of triplicate cultures treated with mineralizing conditions with triplicate cultures treated with AEBSF protease inhibitor for 12 h.

Project description:Wnt signaling in essential for osteoblast differentiation and is activated by lithium via inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase 3beta. Although lithium has been shown to enhance osteoblast differentiation in mice models and accelerate bone repair, its effect in humans is not clear. Therefore, we performed gene expression profiling of human MSCs from 3 donors treated with lithium (5mM) for 7 days. Microarray profiling of lithium-stimulated hMSC revealed decreased expression of adipogenic genes (CEBPA, CMKLR1, HSD11B1) and genes involved in lipid biosynthesis. Interestingly, osteoclastogenic factors and immune responsive genes (IL7, IL8, CXCL1, CXCL12, CCL20) were also downregulated. Negative transcriptional regulators of the osteogenic program (TWIST1 and PBX1) were suppressed while genes involved in mineralization like CLEC3B and ATF4 were induced. These results suggest suppression of adipogenic program and induction of osteogenic genes.
