Expression profiling of Ebf2- and Ebf2- stromal cells in mouse bone marrow

ABSTRACT: To identify the true molecular features of the Ebf2+ cells, we performed microarray analysis of freshly sorted CD45-TER119-Ebf2+ and Ebf2- cells. This allowed for the detection of 1968 genes that were 2-fold differentially expressed in Ebf2+ and Ebf2- cells. Among these, 1075 genes were upregulated and 893 genes including Ebf2, were downregulated in the Ebf2- as compared to the Ebf2+ cells. These include Nov, Fmod, Ndn, Dcn, Ctgf, Angiopoietin like-1(Angptl1), Fn1 and Jag1, some of which has been reported to be expressed in culture-selected MSCs. Furthermore, consistent with antigen expression analysis by FACS, the Ebf2+ cells highly expressed transcripts of Pdgfra, Pdgfrb, Sca1/Ly6a, Thy1 and Itga7 and Itgav, that have been suggested to be linked to MSCs. Nestin was mainly expressed in the Ebf2+ cells whereas it was hardly detectable in the Ebf2- cells. Altogether, molecularly, the Ebf2+ cells displayed features of a MSC. Ebf2 expression is not restricted to committed osteoblast progenitor cells but rather marks a multipotent mesenchymal progenitor cell population in adult mouse BM. These cells do not appear to be completely overlapping with the previous reported MSC populations. The findings provide new insights into the in vivo cellular identity and molecular properties of BM mesenchymal stem and progenitor cells.

Project description:Cyclic regeneration of the endometrium, and its repair after parturition or injury, are crucial for successful reproduction. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow (BM-MSC) facilitate tissue repair via their secretome, which contains growth factors and cytokines that promote wound healing. Despite the implication of MSCs in endometrial regeneration and repair, the mechanisms remain unclear. This study tested the hypothesis that the secretome of MSCs from human BM upregulates human endometrial stromal cell (HESC) proliferation, migration and invasion, and activates pathways to increase HESC motility. MSCs were purchased from ATCC (BM-MSC-1) and cultured from the BM aspirate of a healthy female donor (BM-MSC-2). Indirect co-culture of MSCs and hTERT-immortalized HESCs via a transwell system studied the effect of the BM-MSC secretome on HESC proliferation, migration, and invasion. To study the effect of the MSC secretome on HESC gene expression, HESCs were exposed to the BM-MSC secretome via indirect co-culture for 24 h. Total RNA was extracted from HESCs for RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Differentially expressed genes (DEG) and significantly altered pathways were identified. Indirect co-culture of HESCs with BM- MSCs resulted in significant increase in HESC migration and invasion regardless of the source of MSCs. Effects on cellular proliferation varied among the BM-MSC source. Exposure of HESCs to the secretome of BM-MSCs changed the expression of 10,141 genes with FDR < 0.05. There was overlap among 4351 genes between HESCs exposed to BM-MSC-1 and BM-MSC-2, including upregulated expression of cell motility genes common to both BM-MSC exposures. Increased HESC motility by the secretome of BM-MSC appears to be mediated by paracrine and autocrine mechanisms, in part by modifying HESC gene expression. These data support the potential for leveraging the MSC secretome as a novel cell-free therapy in the treatment of disorders of endometrial regeneration.
