Lactate influences the gene expression profile of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) in a dose dependent manner

ABSTRACT: Wounds, especially non healing wounds are characterised by elevated tissue lactate concentrations. Lactate is known for being able to stimulate collagen synthesis and vessel growth. Lately it has been shown that lactate, in vivo, plays an important role in homing of stem cells. With this work we aimed to show the influence of lactate on the gene expressionprofil of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC). hMSCs were obtained from bone marrow and characterised with fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis. Subsequently the hMSCs were treated with either 0, 5, 10 and 15 mM lactate (pH 7,4) for 24 hours. RNA Isolation from stimulated hMSCs and controls was performed. The Microarray analysis was performed using Affymetrix HuGene 1.0 ST Gene Chip. Selected targets were subsequently analysed using quantitative real time PCR (RTq-PCR). We were able to show that lactate in moderate concentrations of 5 respectively 10 mM leads to an anti-imflammatory, anti-apoptotic but growth and proliferation promoting gene expression after 24 h. In contrast, high latate concentrations of 15 mM leads to the opposed effect, namely promoting inflammation and apoptosis. Hypoxia induced genes did not not show any significant regulation. Contrary to expectation, we were not able to show any significant regulation of glycolysis associate candiadtes. We were able to show that lactate alters gene expression but does not change the cell phenotype, which might be helpful for further investigations of new treatment strategies for chronic non-healing wounds as well as tumor-therapy and neuronal plasticity.
