Deletion of Trps1 regulatory elements recapitulates postnatal hip joint abnormalities and growth retardation of Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome in mice. Hum Mol Genet 2024:ddae102. [PMID: 38899779 DOI: 10.1093/hmg/ddae102] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a genetic disorder caused by point mutations or deletions in the gene-encoding transcription factor TRPS1. TRPS patients display a range of skeletal dysplasias, including reduced jaw size, short stature, and a cone-shaped digit epiphysis. Certain TRPS patients experience early onset coxarthrosis that leads to a devastating drop in their daily activities. The etiologies of congenital skeletal abnormalities of TRPS were revealed through the analysis of Trps1 mutant mouse strains. However, early postnatal lethality in Trps1 knockout mice has hampered the study of postnatal TRPS pathology. Here, through epigenomic analysis we identified two previously uncharacterized candidate gene regulatory regions in the first intron of Trps1. We deleted these regions, either individually or simultaneously, and examined their effects on skeletal morphogenesis. Animals that were deleted individually for either region displayed only modest phenotypes. In contrast, the Trps1Δint/Δint mouse strain with simultaneous deletion of both genomic regions exhibit postnatal growth retardation. This strain displayed delayed secondary ossification center formation in the long bones and misshaped hip joint development that resulted in acetabular dysplasia. Reducing one allele of the Trps1 gene in Trps1Δint mice resulted in medial patellar dislocation that has been observed in some patients with TRPS. Our novel Trps1 hypomorphic strain recapitulates many postnatal pathologies observed in human TRPS patients, thus positioning this strain as a useful animal model to study postnatal TRPS pathogenesis. Our observations also suggest that Trps1 gene expression is regulated through several regulatory elements, thus guaranteeing robust expression maintenance in skeletal cells.

Abstract
The development of multifunctional materials has been expected in dentistry. This study investigated the effects of a novel universal bond containing a bioactive monomer, calcium 4-methacryloxyethyl trimellitic acid (CMET), on odontoblast differentiation in vitro. Eluates from bioactive universal bond with CMET (BA (+), BA bond), bioactive universal bond without CMET (BA (-)), and Scotchbond Universal Plus adhesive (SC, 3M ESPE, USA) were added to the culture medium of the rat odontoblast-like cell line MDPC-23. Then, cell proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization were examined. Statistical analyses were performed using a one-way ANOVA and Tukey's HSDtest. The cell counting kit-8 assay and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay showed that cell proliferation and ALP were significantly higher in the 0.5% BA (+) group than in the other groups. In a real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, mRNA expression of the odontogenic markers, dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) and dentin matrix protein-1 (DMP-1), was significantly higher in the 0.5% BA (+) group than in the BA (-) and SC groups. Calcific nodule formation in MDPC-23 cells was accelerated in the BA (+) group in a dose-dependent manner (p < 0.01); however, no such effect was observed in the BA (-) and SC groups. Thus, the BA bond shows excellent potential for dentin regeneration.

Abstract
Dental caries is the most common chronic disease in children and adults worldwide. The complex etiology of dental caries includes environmental factors as well as host genetics, which together contribute to inter-individual variation in susceptibility. The goal of this study was to provide insights into the molecular pathology underlying increased predisposition to dental caries in trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS). This rare inherited skeletal dysplasia is caused by mutations in the TRPS1 gene coding for the TRPS1 transcription factor. Considering Trps1 expression in odontoblasts, where Trps1 supports expression of multiple mineralization-related genes, we focused on determining the consequences of odontoblast-specific Trps1 deficiency on the quality of dental tissues. We generated a conditional Trps1Col1a1 knockout mouse, in which Trps1 is deleted in differentiated odontoblasts using 2.3kbCol1a1-CreERT2 driver. Mandibular first molars of 4wk old male and female mice were analyzed by micro-computed tomography (μCT) and histology. Mechanical properties of dentin and enamel were analyzed by Vickers microhardness test. The susceptibility to acid demineralization was compared between WT and Trps1Col1a1cKO molars using an ex vivo artificial caries procedure. μCT analyses demonstrated that odontoblast-specific deletion of Trps1 results in decreased dentin volume in male and female mice, while no significant differences were detected in dentin mineral density. However, histology revealed a wider predentin layer and the presence of globular dentin, which are indicative of disturbed mineralization. The secondary effect on enamel was also detected, with both dentin and enamel of Trps1Col1a1cKO mice being more susceptible to demineralization than WT tissues. The quality of dental tissues was particularly impaired in molar pits, which are sites highly susceptible to dental caries in human teeth. Interestingly, Trps1Col1a1cKO males demonstrated a stronger phenotype than females, which calls for attention to genetically-driven sex differences in predisposition to dental caries. In conclusion, the analyses of Trps1Col1a1cKO mice suggest that compromised quality of dental tissues contributes to the high prevalence of dental caries in TRPS patients. Furthermore, our results suggest that TRPS patients will benefit particularly from improved dental caries prevention strategies tailored for individuals genetically predisposed due to developmental defects in tooth mineralization.

Abstract
Serine protease inhibitor SerpinB2 is one of the most upregulated proteins following cellular stress. This multifunctional serpin has been attributed a number of pleiotropic activities, including roles in cell survival, proliferation, differentiation, immunity and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. Studies of cancer cells demonstrated that expression of SerpinB2 is directly repressed by the Trps1 transcription factor, which is a regulator of skeletal and dental tissues mineralization. In our previous studies, we identified SerpinB2 as one of the novel genes highly upregulated by phosphate (Pi) at the initiation of the mineralization process, however SerpinB2 has never been implicated in formation nor homeostasis of mineralized tissues. The aim of this study was to establish, if SerpinB2 is involved in function of cells producing mineralized ECM and to determine the interplay between Pi signaling and Trps1 in the regulation of SerpinB2 expression specifically in cells producing mineralized ECM. Analyses of the SerpinB2 expression pattern in mouse skeletal and dental tissues detected high SerpinB2 protein levels specifically in cells producing mineralized ECM. qRT-PCR and Western blot analyses demonstrated that SerpinB2 expression is activated by elevated Pi specifically in osteogenic cells. However, the Pi-induced SerpinB2 expression was diminished by overexpression of Trps1. Decreased SerpinB2 levels were also detected in osteoblasts and odontoblasts of 2.3Col1a1-Trps1 transgenic mice. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay (ChIP) revealed that the occupancy of Trps1 on regulatory elements in the SerpinB2 gene changes in response to Pi. In vitro functional assessment of the consequences of SerpinB2 deficiency in cells producing mineralized ECM detected impaired mineralization in SerpinB2-deficient cells in comparison with controls. In conclusion, high and specific expression of SerpinB2 in cells producing mineralized ECM, the impaired mineralization of SerpinB2-deficient cells and regulation of SerpinB2 expression by two molecules regulating formation of mineralized tissues suggest involvement of SerpinB2 in physiological mineralization.

Abstract
Tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type I, an autosomal dominant condition, is caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in a zinc finger transcription factor, TRPS1, which has important roles in development of endochondral bones, teeth, and hair. Clinical manifestations of the patients include short stature, sparse, fine and slow-growing scalp hair, bulbous nose, supernumerary teeth, hip dysplasia, brachydactyly, and cone-shaped epiphyses of the phalangeal bones. OBJECTIVE To clinically, radiographically, and molecular genetically investigate a patient with tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type I. MATERIALS AND METHODS Clinical and radiographic examination and mutation analysis of TRPS1 were performed. RESULTS Clinical and radiographic examination indicated the patient had tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type I. Sequencing of the TRPS1 gene revealed a heterozygous pathogenic variant (c.2762G>A; p.Arg921Gln). Oral examination showed supernumerary teeth, large dental pulp spaces, dental pulp stones, microdontia of the maxillary permanent lateral incisors, absence of the mandibular left second premolar and short root of the maxillary right second premolar, and hypoplastic mandibular condyles with long condylar necks. CONCLUSION TRPS1 has an important function in regulating bone and dentin mineralization. Having large dental pulp spaces suggests that impaired dentin mineralization was the result of the TRPS1 pathogenic variant. This is the first patient with a TRPS1 pathogenic variant who had impaired dentin mineralization. This is also the third report showing the association between TRPS1 pathogenic variants and the presence of supernumerary teeth.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION iMatrix-511 is a novel integrin-binding fragment derived from laminin-511. Previous studies showed its superiority as a culture substrate for xeno-free culture and maintenance of pluripotency in stem cells. However, its effects in the dental field remain largely unknown. The aim of the present study was to unravel the in vitro effects of iMatrix-511 in comparison with vitronectin (VN). METHODS Biochemical assays were performed in vitro in MDPC-23 cells. The optimal coating density for 2 proteins was determined using the cell counting kit-8. To evaluate cell proliferation to both proteins, MDPC-23 cells were directly seeded onto the iMatrix-511 or VN-modified polystyrene and analyzed by the cell counting kit-8. The phenotype of cells seeded on iMatrix-511 and VN was characterized. Phenotypic characterization included real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and alizarin red staining. RESULTS The optimal coating density for iMatrix-511 and VN was determined to be 1 μg/cm2 and 0.25 μg/cm2, respectively. Cells cultured on iMatrix-511 showed higher cell proliferative activity than the noncoated control and VN on days 1, 2, and 4. Cell morphology observation revealed MDPC-23 cells attach preferentially to iMatrix-511 and start to spread as early as 1 hour after inoculation. MDPC-23 cells exhibited more potent odontogenic differentiation on iMatrix-511 than the control and VN as shown by the marked enhancement of dentin matrix protein 1 and dentin sialophosphoprotein messenger RNA expression. Although both proteins showed more mineralized nodule formation than the control, iMatrix-511 remained to be the one that elicited stronger calcific deposition. CONCLUSIONS iMatrix-511 supported the proliferation and acquisition of odontogenic cell phenotype in vitro, rendering this novel material a potential candidate for dentin regeneration.

Abstract
Tooth development is regulated by sequential and reciprocal epithelium-mesenchymal interactions and their related molecular signaling pathways, such as bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). Among the 14 types of BMPs, BMP9 (also known as growth differentiation factor 2) is one of the most potent BMPs to induce osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. The purpose of this study was to examine potential roles of BMP9 signaling in tooth development. First, we detected the expression pattern of BMP9 in tooth germ during postnatal tooth development, and we found that BMP9 was widely expressed in odontoblasts, ameloblasts, dental pulp cells, and osteoblasts in alveolar bones. Then, we established a BMP9-KO mouse model. Gross morphological examination revealed that the tooth cusps of BMP9-KO mice were significantly abraded with shorter roots. Micro-computed tomography and three-dimensional reconstruction analysis indicated that the first molars of the BMP9-KO mice exhibited a reduced thickness dentin, enlarged pulp canals, and shortened roots, resembling the phenotypes of the common hereditary dental disease dentinogenesis imperfecta. Further, the alveolar bone of the BMP9-KO mutants was found to be shorter and had a decreased mineral density and trabecular thickness and bone volume fraction compared with that of the wild-type control. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that both dentin sialophosphoprotein and dentin matrix protein 1 were induced in dental stem cells by BMP9, whereas their expression was reduced when BMP9 was silenced. Further studies are required to determine whether loss of or decreased BMP9 expression is clinically associated with dentinogenesis imperfecta. Collectively, our results strongly suggest that BMP9 may play an important role in regulating dentinogenesis and tooth development. Further research is recommended into the therapeutic uses of BMP9 to regenerate traumatized and diseased tissues and for the bioengineering of replacement teeth.

Abstract
Mutations of the TRPS1 gene cause trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS), a skeletal dysplasia with dental abnormalities. TRPS dental phenotypes suggest that TRPS1 regulates multiple aspects of odontogenesis, including the tooth number and size. Previous studies delineating Trps1 expression throughout embryonic tooth development in mice detected strong Trps1 expression in dental mesenchyme, preodontoblasts, and dental follicles, suggesting that TRPS dental phenotypes result from abnormalities in early developmental processes. In this study, Trps1+/- and Trps1-/- mice were analyzed to determine consequences of Trps1 deficiency on odontogenesis. We focused on the aspects of tooth formation that are disturbed in TRPS and on potential molecular abnormalities underlying TRPS dental phenotypes. Microcomputed tomography analyses of molars were used to determine tooth size, crown shape, and mineralization of dental tissues. These analyses uncovered that disruption of one Trps1 allele is sufficient to impair mineralization of dentin in both male and female mice. Enamel mineral density was decreased only in males, while mineralization of the root dental tissues was decreased only in females. In addition, significantly smaller teeth were detected in Trps1+/- females. Histomorphometric analyses of tooth organs showed reduced anterior-posterior diameter in Trps1-/- mice. BrdU-incorporation assay detected reduced proliferation of mesenchymal and epithelial cells in Trps1-/- tooth organs. Immunohistochemistry for Runx2 and Osx osteogenic transcription factors revealed changes in their spatial distribution in Trps1-/- tooth organs and uncovered cell-type specific requirements of Trps1 for Osx expression. In conclusion, this study has demonstrated that Trps1 is a positive regulator of cell proliferation in both dental mesenchyme and epithelium, suggesting that the microdontia in TRPS is likely due to decreased cell proliferation in developing tooth organs. Furthermore, the reduced mineralization observed in Trps1+/- mice may provide some explanation for the extensive dental caries reported in TRPS patients.

Zeng HC, Bae Y, Dawson BC, Chen Y, Bertin T, Munivez E, Campeau PM, Tao J, Chen R, Lee BH. MicroRNA miR-23a cluster promotes osteocyte differentiation by regulating TGF-β signalling in osteoblasts. Nat Commun 2017; 8:15000. [PMID: 28397831 PMCID: PMC5394267 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms15000] [Citation(s) in RCA: 63] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2016] [Accepted: 02/20/2017] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteocytes are the terminally differentiated cell type of the osteoblastic lineage and have important functions in skeletal homeostasis. Although the transcriptional regulation of osteoblast differentiation has been well characterized, the factors that regulate differentiation of osteocytes from mature osteoblasts are poorly understood. Here we show that miR-23a∼27a∼24-2 (miR-23a cluster) promotes osteocyte differentiation. Osteoblast-specific miR-23a cluster gain-of-function mice have low bone mass associated with decreased osteoblast but increased osteocyte numbers. By contrast, loss-of-function transgenic mice overexpressing microRNA decoys for either miR-23a or miR-27a, but not miR24-2, show decreased osteocyte numbers. Moreover, RNA-sequencing analysis shows altered transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signalling. Prdm16, a negative regulator of the TGF-β pathway, is directly repressed by miR-27a with concomitant alteration of sclerostin expression, and pharmacological inhibition of TGF-β rescues the phenotypes observed in the gain-of-function transgenic mice. Taken together, the miR-23a cluster regulates osteocyte differentiation by modulating the TGF-β signalling pathway through targeting of Prdm16. Control of osteocyte differentiation is not well understood. Here the authors show that the miR-23 cluster represses the TGF-β signalling repressor Prdm16 in osteoblasts, thus enhancing osteocyte differentiation and a low bone mass phenotype.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has the worst prognosis of any breast cancer subtype. To better understand the genetic forces driving TNBC, we performed a transposon mutagenesis screen in a phosphatase and tensin homolog (Pten) mutant mice and identified 12 candidate trunk drivers and a much larger number of progression genes. Validation studies identified eight TNBC tumor suppressor genes, including the GATA-like transcriptional repressor TRPS1 Down-regulation of TRPS1 in TNBC cells promoted epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by deregulating multiple EMT pathway genes, in addition to increasing the expression of SERPINE1 and SERPINB2 and the subsequent migration, invasion, and metastasis of tumor cells. Transposon mutagenesis has thus provided a better understanding of the genetic forces driving TNBC and discovered genes with potential clinical importance in TNBC.

Abstract
A Thai mother and her two daughters were affected with tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type I. The daughters had 15 and 18 supernumerary teeth, respectively. The mother had normal dentition. Mutation analysis of TRPS1 showed a novel heterozygous c.3809_3811delACTinsCATGTTGTG mutation in all. This mutation is predicted to cause amino acid changes in the Ikaros-like zinc finger domain near the C-terminal end of TRPS1, which is important for repressive protein function. The results of our study and the comprehensive review of the literature show that pathways of forming supernumerary teeth appear to involve APC and RUNX2, the genes responsible for familial adenomatous polyposis syndrome and cleidocranial dysplasia, respectively. The final pathway resulting in supernumerary teeth seems to involve Wnt, a morphogen active during many stages of development. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Chondrogenesis and endochondral ossification are precisely controlled by cellular interactions with surrounding matrix proteins and growth factors that mediate cellular signaling pathways. Here, we report that extracellular matrix protein 1 (ECM1) is a previously unrecognized regulator of chondrogenesis. ECM1 is induced in the course of chondrogenesis and its expression in chondrocytes strictly depends on parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) signaling pathway. Overexpression of ECM1 suppresses, whereas suppression of ECM1 enhances, chondrocyte differentiation and hypertrophy in vitro and ex vivo In addition, target transgene of ECM1 in chondrocytes or osteoblasts in mice leads to striking defects in cartilage development and endochondral bone formation. Of importance, ECM1 seems to be critical for PTHrP action in chondrogenesis, as blockage of ECM1 nearly abolishes PTHrP regulation of chondrocyte hypertrophy, and overexpression of ECM1 rescues disorganized growth plates of PTHrP-null mice. Furthermore, ECM1 and progranulin chondrogenic growth factor constitute an interaction network and act in concert in the regulation of chondrogenesis.-Kong, L., Zhao, Y.-P., Tian, Q.-Y., Feng, J.-Q., Kobayashi, T., Merregaert, J., Liu, C.-J. Extracellular matrix protein 1, a direct targeting molecule of parathyroid hormone-related peptide, negatively regulates chondrogenesis and endochondral ossification via associating with progranulin growth factor.

Abstract
In vertebrates and invertebrates, biomineralization is controlled by the cell and the proteins they produce. A large number of these proteins are intrinsically disordered, gaining some secondary structure when they interact with their binding partners. These partners include the component ions of the mineral being deposited, the crystals themselves, the template on which the initial crystals form, and other intrinsically disordered proteins and peptides. This review speculates why intrinsically disordered proteins are so important for biomineralization, providing illustrations from the SIBLING (small integrin binding N-glycosylated) proteins and their peptides. It is concluded that the flexible structure, and the ability of the intrinsically disordered proteins to bind to a multitude of surfaces is crucial, but details on the precise-interactions, energetics and kinetics of binding remain to be determined.

Abstract
The Trps1 transcription factor is highly expressed in dental mesenchyme and preodontoblasts, while in mature, secretory odontoblasts, it is expressed at low levels. Previously, we have shown that high Trps1 levels in mature odontoblasts impair their function in vitro and in vivo. Col1a1-Trps1 transgenic (Trps1-Tg) mice demonstrate defective dentin secretion and mineralization, which are associated with significantly decreased Dspp expression due to direct repression of the Dspp gene by Trps1. Here, by crossing Trps1-Tg and Col1a1-Dspp transgenic (Dspp-Tg) mice, we generated Col1a1-Trps1;Col1a1-Dspp double transgenic (double-Tg) mice in which Dspp was restored in odontoblasts overexpressing Trps1. Comparative micro-computed tomography analyses revealed partial correction of the dentin volume and no improvement of dentin mineralization in double transgenic mice in comparison with Trps1-Tg and wild-type (WT) mice. In addition, dentin of double-Tg mice has an irregular mineralization pattern characteristic for dentin in hypophosphatemic rickets. Consistent with this phenotype, decreased levels of Phex, Vdr, and Fam20c proteins are detected in both Trps1-Tg and double-Tg odontoblasts in comparison with WT and Dspp-Tg odontoblasts. This suggests that the Dspp-independent dentin mineralization defects in Trps1-Tg mice are a result of downregulation of a group of proteins critical for mineral deposition within the dentin matrix. In summary, by demonstrating that Trps1 functions as a repressor of later stages of dentinogenesis, we provide functional significance of the dynamic Trps1 expression pattern during dentinogenesis.

Abstract
TRPS1 (tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome) is a unique GATA-type transcription factor that acts as a transcriptional repressor. TRPS1 deficiency and dysregulated TRPS1 expression result in skeletal and dental abnormalities implicating TRPS1 in endochondral bone formation and tooth development. Moreover, patients with tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome frequently present with low bone mass indicating TRPS1 involvement in bone homeostasis. In addition, our previous data demonstrated accelerated mineralization of the perichondrium in Trps1 mutant mice and impaired dentin mineralization in Col1a1-Trps1 transgenic mice, implicating Trps1 in the mineralization process. To understand the role of Trps1 in the differentiation and function of cells producing mineralized matrix, we used a preodontoblastic cell line as a model of dentin mineralization. We generated both Trps1-deficient and Trps1-overexpressing stable cell lines and analyzed the progression of mineralization by alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red staining. As predicted, based on our previous in vivo data, delayed and decreased mineralization of Trps1-overexpressing odontoblastic cells was observed when compared with control cells. This was associated with down-regulation of genes regulating phosphate homeostasis. Interestingly, Trps1-deficient cells lost the ability to mineralize and demonstrated decreased expression of several genes critical for initiating the mineralization process, including Alpl and Phospho1. Based on these data, we have concluded that Trps1 serves two critical and context-dependent functions in odontoblast-regulated mineralization as follows: 1) Trps1 is required for odontoblast maturation by supporting expression of genes crucial for initiating the mineralization process, and 2) Trps1 represses the function of mature cells and, consequently, restricts the extent of extracellular matrix mineralization.
